Exchanging two different Sim cards in my iphone

Hi all. I am a new owner of the iphone and again on the forum. I recently bought a new self iphone unlocked and put in place with Gophone service. The service works very well for me, but not very well in my camp, located in a service area notoriously low. The residents of this area get good U S cellular service, but this service is less in my region of origin. My question is this: can I I put in place a plan for pre-payment with U S cellular and use his sim card in my phone when I'm at the camp and then put my Gophone SIM back in when I get home? My goal would be to buy a monthly pass only to the region, I am when I'm there. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello there, Maine-iac50!

Welcome to the communities of Apple Support and congratulations for the new iPhone! It's a big question that you have about the use of the phone with 2 different suppliers. I can understand wanting to be able to use the iPhone in all areas as well. As long as the iPhone is unlocked, you should have no problem moving between carrier SIMs. As long each SIM card is active for each carrier.

Cheers and enjoy your iPhone!

  • Authentication required each time new sim card entered the Iphone

    After the new update apple this week of May 18, 2016, whenever you change the sim card, you will need to re - authenticate your apple ID.  It's very embarrassing for people who travel often and use the dual sims or will frequently use different sim card for different countries.  It's that apple has not even given the user a choice to turn off his mandatory.  Especially when you travel to a new country and buy a new sim card and activate it using your iPhone, it becomes almost impossible since you need to first find a journal in your iPhone and then active sim card wifi, making it an extremely difficult process.

    While some may want this feature, it is not logical for everyone. Ask apple to make this optional choice / deleting it or explain how to get rid of.

    Your iCloud account and iMessage active on the phone?  If so, Yes, it will require you to do whenever you change the SIM card and that is never going to change. You can try to connect on iCloud, iMessage and FaceTime and see if she is no longer doing this.  But as long as you use the services of Apple (and find my iPhone with iCloud), which are related to the phone in use with the device number, you will be prompted to confirm whenever you switch SIMs.

  • With the help of an old sim card in the iPhone?

    I finally convinced my MOM to get an iPhone.

    Here, is the fun part. It is 1200 miles away so I can't be there to help him with this. She lives in an abdelkader * town so not Apple store or engineering support. I do this anywhere in the phone. She bought a reconditioned 5 or 6 for storage AT & T probably will not be that useful.

    It is on AT & T. I'm on Verizon. His current phone is so old that she cannot yet use AT & T cloud backup. It's something Huawei. It has a sim card. My phone does not have a sim card, so I'm flying blind on this one.

    My questions are these. It is theoretically possible for her to use the old phone sim card in an iPhone? I need to identify the card for me, I know. It seems that if it's an AT & T card, it should work.

    Is this what is causing problems for her? She wants to use the card so that it will not lose its photos and will not have to enter all its numbers again. Once the info is in the iPhone, I'll put it up with iCloud so that she should not rely on the map.

    If she can not use the old sim card, what is the best way to get the data of the card and on the phone? It has a Dell laptop. I have not persuaded to get a Macbook yet. I read that I can get a converter any for the card to be used with a USB port. Would it not easier to import the data on his laptop computer, and then in iCloud? Then once she has the iPhone, hover over the address? I'm assuming the pictures import as jpg files. Does anyone know how to import the addresses? I Team Viewer if I can take her cell phone if I need to.

    My other thought is to try to connect his phone to his laptop computer. I'm not sure she can find a cable with USB on one side and everything that will connect on the phone on the other. I'm not sure that it will work at all, but I think it's worth it.

    Ideas, tips or tricks to help me help my mother would be greatly appreciated.

    Where exactly she buys this iPhone "reconditioned"? Apple does not sell reconditioned iPhones and if it has been refurbished by a 3rd party, he will be untouchable as far as Apple is concerned.

    That said, if it is AT & T, she can get an AT & T Nano from AT & T SIM. They charge him for it. Her old SIM does not fit into a new iPhone. Heck, he probably does not take in an old iPhone unless you want to track an iPhone to original iPhone 3G or 3GS, which are obsolete.

    Get photos off the old phone is based entirely on what type of phone is and what kind of data transfer utility (and special cables) are available. If fact, she buys a new iPhone, someone at the AT & T store can help with this and contact transfer.

  • Play two sound waves through two different sound cards at the same time?

    Hi all.

    With the help of old ship poles and the example of screw provided with Labview 2009 SP1, I could get a part of the path.

    The goal is to simultaneously play two .wav files, to two different sound cards. So far:

    (1) I can play a wav file for each sound card

    (2) I can generate two sinusoidal waves of different tones and put each two cards separately at the same time.

    But when I replace these two tones of #2 with .wav files, wave files play in turn. If wav_1 plays sound_card_1, THEN wav_2 plays sound_card_2, not simultaneously.

    It is even possible to play 2 wav files simultaneously on different maps?

    I've included a VI of the attempt to #2 above. WARNING: my labview skills are minimal and this vi was very experimental is probably terrible form.

    Why do you want to do this. Many modern sound cards have 5 channals output

  • If I pull the sim card from an iPhone AT & T of full fare is it then Sim-Free?

    I want to buy a sim-free iPhone, but Apple will not have any to the ship for several weeks. The nearest Apple Store has none for local pickup, either. However, the store, have a version of AT & T. If I order an AT & T iPhone OS on the Apple site, pay full price, pick up at the local Apple Store, remove SIM AT & T, I don't can have an iPhone Unlocked sim-free?  I want to use it with Straight Talk. (There is no category iPhone SE for that matter so I picked 6)

    You'll have a SIM-free phone, but not an unlocked phone. There is a difference. A SIM-free phone is delivered without a SIM card, an unlocked phone is one that is able to use any SIM card. If you purchase the AT & T device, you will need to ask AT & T to unlock the device. Devices to specific carriers are locked for carriers.

  • I took a sim card to an iPhone and place in another.  What should I do next to the phone with the sim card replaced?  The screen and apps are from the old phone...

    Hi, my wife 4S iPhone died and I I replaced his Sim Card with my old s 4 card as I have updated.  She is still decide to upgrade, but needs a phone so replace the sim card seemed like a good thing to do.  So now his phone has all my contacts, applications etc on it and none of his own.  What is the next step to have his stuff on his phone?  Is this to connect to its MacBook or reset the phone and connect.

    Thank you.

    Has a backup via iTunes or iCloud of his old phone before he died? If so, what follows has instructions. Transfer the contents of an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch to a new device - Apple Support

    Note that since the phone is already implemented (i.e., no news, the first step will be to follow the instructions below to the bottom of this link.

    To transfer a backup on a device, you have already configured, you need to clear the device: tap Settings > General > reset > erase all content and settings. This erases all the data that is currently on your device. After you erased, your device will restart and you will see the screen of 'Hello '. Now, you can transfer a backup of your device.

  • can I use any sim card in my iphone 4 to activate

    Only if the device is unlocked. If the phone is not unlocked, then you would use a SIM from the provider of that the device is locked. Otherwise, Yes, you can use any SIM that fits into the device.

  • Hello, I had the iphone from USA and when I try to use this phone in India it displays "SIM NOT VALID". Use a different SIM card, which supports or carrier to unlock your device. What it means? How can I use the iphone in inidia?

    Your phone is locked on an American aircraft carrier. You must get the carrier to open it for you, and most carriers require you to be a current customer in good standing.  Apple will not unlock the phone like Apple do not SIM unlock phones. only the carrier that it is locked to do it.

    You have a brick. If you bought a person, return it for a refund and buy an iPhone in India that you will be able to use.

  • The size of a difference in performance between the two different graphics cards

    Hey, I'm in the middle of upgrading my system and I try to spend my tax return on0 graphics cards. I'll run an SLI with Nvidia GTX 660 or 680 GTX. Now I realize the 680 is high the hand better than 660 I want to know is, it is better to the difference in price proformance wise. I intend to get two of them and SLI them, here are the two that I'm looking

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127723 - GTX 680

    I'm running CS6 if I want to stay in the 600 series of Nvidia cards that are on the whitelist for CS6. I want to choose between these two cards because I'm under eyefinity right now and I can't go back, these Nvidia Surround support out of the box with any necessary adapters. MSI heatsinks are also fantastic with these cards.

    So basically what I'm asking, is the proformance go with 2 of the 680 years is worth the $500 price difference?

    Here is my system in its present form:

    Processor: AMD Phenom II X 6 3.2 GHz-> go to AMD 9590 x 8 5 GHz after I buy graphics cards

    RAM 16 GB Corsair Dominator 8-8-8-20

    Samsung 840 EVO 250 GB SSD (drive)

    Corsair 64 GB SSD as a scratch disk

    2 TB WD Black HDD as mass storage

    AMD Radion 6790-> will upgrading to one of the above cards

    Windows 8.1

    For After Effects, there is no reason to spend the extra money, unless you use a specific feature: the 3D rendering engine traced to the RADIUS. If you do not use this feature, and your focus is After Effects, then spend your extra money on RAM and SSD.

  • T440p - Ericsson N5321gw does not recognize the SIM card

    Hey, my new T440p with integrated WWAN Ericsson N5321gw does not recognize the SIM card. I am running Win7 64 Bit and in the Device Manager, I see the Ericsson unit without any error. Once I launche logins, I have the error message if there is no SIM card inserted and I have to insert the SIM card and try again. The SIM card is inserted as indicated next to the slot (although I tried in other ways, too). I tried two different SIM cards just to be sure, two SIM cards work in my phone. Any idea? Thank you very much!


  • Permutation of the iPhones that belong to two different networks

    Hello

    I have a question about the nature of the exchange of two different iPhones. My grandmother & I have the same iPhone - iPhone blue 5 c; except that his is on Verizon, mine is on AT & T. Hers a 16 GB & mine has 8 GB - we wanted to share because it didn't need much space, & I do. If we had SIM cards, restored to factory settings iPhones, & put AT & T SIM card in the iPhone to Verizon & the Verizon SIM in the AT & T iPhone, everything would work as usual?

    Thanks in advance.

    -JR

    Not if they are locked on their respective networks. You must contact each carrier and and go through their first unlocking process.  Verizon, like most CDMA providers, usually will not allow a device not sold by them on their network. They are allowing people to bring new iPhones to their network, but I don't know if this includes the 5 c (I don't think).
