Permutation of the Sims in the iPhone 6

I broke my iPhone I used for a 2nd number.

I intend to buy the new iPhone in September, so need an interim solution - given I have two phones at the same time (I can use one during the week and the other at the end of week) it would be viable to just swap the Sim cards at the end of week?

The key question - it change or delete ANYTHING on my phone when I reverse the two?

But also material composed with having the SIM exchanged a week and Dungeon phone will be 'Set up' or it keeps settings every time?

If the two phones are not locked to another sim carriers or as you say wear don't cost the life of the sim tray / connector inside the phone, it should be good

the sim card is really just the link between the og IMEI of the phone and your contract with the carrier

  • 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.

    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).

  • While the iPhone overseas requires a reactivation, which sometimes works, but more often does not work. At the beginning he said that my SIM card was not supported by the activation policy assigned by the activation server.

    iPhone 6

    Network: Verizon

    iOS 9.3.3

    Twice now, once in Costa Rica in April and, more recently, in Ireland, while that phone overseas warning reads as follows:

    "your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is not reachable. Try to connect your phone to the iPhone to activate it, or try again in a few minutes. If the problem persists contact Apple Support to Apple.com/support. »

    or:

    "The SIM card that you have currently installed in the phone is a carrier that is not supported in the title of the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This isn't a problem with the hardware with the iPhone. Please insert another card from a supported carrier SIM or ask this iPhone be unlocked by your operator. Please contact Apple for more information. »

    My carrier is Verizon and I replaced the SIM card on my return from Costa Rica end of April despite the fact that the card is unlocked and good, in theory, for international travel,

    Before you activate the phone is locked and I can't access applications like camera, that, when I travel, I need over the phone.

    Apple says call Verizon. Verizon said, you guessed it, call Apple.

    When I return to the States, everything works fine. I thought that the replacement of a SIM card would do the trick, so you can imagine my dismay when the activation warning came after I took the phone off airplane mode after I landed in Dublin and the activation warning came new.

    What is going on?

    I think it's a problem with Verizon.

  • 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.

  • Invalid SIM on the iPhone to Verizon unlocked replacement

    I had an iPhone 6s recently, but lately I cracked the screen, and when I went to Apple Store, they have kindly provided a new phone replacement rather than a replacement of the screen because, they said, replacements of the screen for the s 6 was not yet available.  Then, everything worked fine in the United States for a month or two, but now I came in another country, I put in another known working SIM card, and he at first said "Activation required" (while on another iPhone with the same SIM card it comes immediately started to use the SIM very well).  When I went through the first few steps of activation, he set up a screen that says

    Invalid SIM

    The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported. The SIM card that you have currently installed in this iPhone is a carrier that is not supported in the title of the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This isn't a problem with the hardware with the iPhone. Please insert a different SIM card of a carrier supported or to ask that this iPhone be unlocked by your operator. For more information, contact Apple.

    I then called Verizon and they told me that they do not block iPhones. They said I need to contact Apple.  I called Apple Care, and the person I spoke made me do restore itunes procedure, which incidentally is extremely painful, since took hours and many attempts due to a combination of buggy Internet connection in the hotel, who need to download a set of 2 GB update, iTunes is not not able to resume an interrupted download.  After restoring to iTunes, it gave me the same problem.

    When I called Apple, I asked if the person did not have this problem, and he said he was and that is how solve you that problem, but I don't think he really was.  He is described very well in this other discussion here: Re: SIM not valid but unlocked?

    The message said things need to go to support second-level or senior engineer, etc. and I tried to use that language, but after that just get after triage, I got was a front-line guy who claimed that he could solve this problem. But his "miracle" did nothing.  He also responded when I asked how it happened is something 'glitched' when I put SIM card. but that has been proved wrong when I restored it from a backup that was from the day before my trip, and improved anything.

    Why can't Apple Care reps learn more about this problem and immediately he effectively treat or move users to someone who can? Does anyone know of no official statement of this problem and how to deal from Apple?

    I still support *, until the Sun come up in Cupertino. I'll keep you posted when / if it is resolved.

    Follow-up on my experience since the first post: return of the person to Apple Care kindly called me the next day, and when I pointed out that the same thing happened after I did the restore itunes procedure, but that it has not fixed the problem, he said he had to check with some people there. Then he'll be back on the line and said that they would have to make some changes that can last a few minutes or a few hours to change the 'activation policy.  Then he reminded me a little later and said that I should now make the procedure of restore itunes once more and that should not require downloading 2 GB this time, so it should go a lot faster (and no need to retry), and it should work really this time.  He was right; now it's working.

  • Is the iPhone really 7 unlocked when you pay full price? I think it is but not sure yet

    I ordered two 7 black 32 GB iPhones and t-mobile selected as the carrier. I realized that when full rate is paid ($649 + tax) iPhone 7 comes unlocked but with the selected carrier nano sim, then, does this mean that I have to activate the iPhone using this nano t-mobile sim? or I could remove it to insert the nano from my carrier sim card in my country and activate it with this one? I intend to use my iPhone to the Venezuela.

    iPhone is unlocked, apple.com has said clearly that this iPhone is unlocked just before making the check-out the day of the order.
