Using the phone on other networks.
Hey guys i have searched for this through the threads but cant find an exact answere. I have a E51 that was from Finland, I know there are diff models from diff areas, I live in the US and the phone is unlocked, on Tmobiles network, Tmobile works in Tahiti, but when i was down there i had no signal, at all, when i go into my network settings:
Dual Mode
UMTS
GSM
I have it set by default at Dual Mode, from what I understand is that the E51 is a world phone which works on most GSM bands, and if i set mine to GSM it should pick up all GSM bands, but in Tahiti I had no service whats so ever, not that im complaining the break was nice, but I am worried if I will have that same problem when traveling to other parts of europe or asia. any advice? do others have the same options? or do i need to get a better software or is this just way off wack? please help .

from Tahiti.com:
Tikiphone uses a GSM 900 network standard but some operators do not use the same frequencies or bands. Therefore, to make sure your mobile will work on the Vini network, you should get a dual band (GSM 900 / 1800) or a tri band (GSM 900 / 1800 / 1900).
If you can see any providers in your "Operators Selection" you are online, but your provider has no agreement with any Tahiti one.

Where did the phone come from as most of the UK carriers unlock phones, but the fact that you are now abroad may be a problem.

i connected my iphone 3g to itunes which was in 4.1 firmware and itunes ask for an update which i downloaded an updated the phone to version 6.1.3 but my phone cannot start it shows no service my sim card is not getting network and i cannot use the phone. what should i do.?
First, you do not have a 3G if you could upgrade it to 6.1.3, because 4.2.1 is the last version that will work on the 3G. So you either have a 3GS or you somehow hacked the phone to install an incompatible version. You can check the model you have by entering your serial number here: https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
Assuming you have a 3GS the most likely reason for your problem is you have a gray market phone that was hacked or jailbroken to unlock it. When you upgraded it you removed the hack, so the phone is now locked to its original carrier. -
I receive a 4s after been use for 2 years in the verizon network and the customer upgrade to a 5. I will like to use the phone overseas but I do not use Verizon, how I can get this phone legally unlocked without having to add service because I'm with Sprint under a contract?
I can get the prior owner of the phone info if you nedd to contac her to verify, just let me know thank you.
If the phone was used in the Verizon network for 2 years, is that not enough time to get the phone unlocked?I have sprint phone and service without simcard, Sprint and Verizon use CDMA. But if I can get the Verizon iPhone 4S unlocked, I can use it let's said in the caribean, canada, europe etc., with a local simcard from the service provider and country that I visit . No to be use here in USA with Sprint or Verizon, only to be use with GSM-Simcard when I travel out of USA.

I have an I pad2, an iMac desktop(2012) and an I phone 5, how do I get them all to be able to face time with each other, do I need different email addresses, use the phone number, or the sim number in the iPad ? Any help gratefully received !!
Graham,
For the iPad, iMac you need to create verifyible e-mail addresses created with one of the providers such as Yahoo, Gmail,etc. For the iphone you should use it's phone number, but an e-mail could be used for it too. If you want to associate these e-mail addresses with a single ID, I'm including a link to give you info about how you can do that. Read it carefully, as it can be a bit confusing.

Several of us have a iPhone 6plus and are having trouble with hearing and speaking at the same time when using the phone. ? The speakers seem to be too far apart? Are others having this issue? Solutions?

so my iphone 4 that is using ios5 keeps freezing when i want to dial, or receive call. i can use all my other apps but cant use the phone to call because the freezing problem. i know some people that are having the same problem too. what can i do?
I got the same problem. The percentage of getting this problem is around 10% of all my dial/receive calls.
The problem usually appears when I receive calls. The phone app will freeze, and I cannot dial or receive calls even I closed the phone app, however, most other apps work properly.
Once this problem happens, I will not be able to turn off the phone by holding sleep button, the only way I can get rid of it is holding sleep and home button at the same time to reset the iphone. -

I want to unlock it from o2 network size to be used on any network in Romania. right now I can not use this phone on any network in Romania and I would like if possible with your help me to unlock it. model phone is iPhone 4.
I understand that it takes IMEI?
thank you, with great esteem and respect Stan Ionut-Alin from Bucharest Romania
I can someone help me please to use this phone in romania
So the phone is encrypted or locked in england on o2 networkThere is NO solution other than already described
O2 locked the iPhone as they subsidised the original price
when sold new
Therefore ONLY O2 can unlock the iPhone
it is NOTHING to do with Apple they have no authority
to unlock an iPhone
Apple do NOT lock iPhones ,carriers do
simple no debate

Help iPhone4 only headphone set working cannot use the phone
Help iPhone4 only headphone set is working I cannot use the phone in a normal way, voice control keep coming up
The update did not do anything.
AT&T cannot and will not do anything, they do not provide support for iPhones, Apple does.
The issue is not with the iPhone or iOS if you've reset network settings and tried forgetting the Wi-Fi Network, it is specific to the network.
Check the settings on the router, try disabling the security settings first... that will clarify the issue is not with the device but rather the Network. -
I have bought an used Iphone 5. I dont have the password for the existing login id of the old owner. How do i use the phone and change the log in id?
Unfortunatly the only way that you can get it off is to get the old user to input the password. You may need to contact that old user and see if he can put the old password in. hope this helps.

I upgraded from Iphone 3g to iphone 4. I had to update my macbook pro to Lepard just to sync. the **** thing with the new iphone 4. I bought and updated to lepard. Now when I try to sync itunes does not recognize my new iphone 4 as mine and wants to erase everything I have bought using the phone before it will sync! It says everything on the phone now will be cleared in order to sync it with my existing info on the computer from my previous iphone. How can I just get everything from my current iphone 4 into itunes, basically add it to the info from my previous iphone 3g that is currently in my itunes? I dont want to lose what I have on my phone currently....I paid money for half the apps for crying out loud.
I was so frustrated by this when I first bought the phone that I just pushed it out of my mind and NEVER synced it. Please help...Nope - you cannot restore a backup from a newer iOS version on to a device running an older iOS version. The reverse works, but in your case to use your backup, you must update to iOS 7.0.3 - no other option if you want to use that backup.

My phone says there's 0 bytes available but only 6 GB are used the phone is supposed to be 8 GB I have no pictures at all and only 5 apps this is really bothering me please help I can't even take pictures because it says I've no storage I also have no messages at all
My iPhone is a 16GB and it says 9.0GB Available and 3.7GB used; I suspect the missing 2.3GB is occupied by the system software.

With my i phone 4 , the Push notifications doesn't work for apps like (fb viber , whatsapp etc ) it only works for the official apps like message even when im using the phone, has this probleme with the iOs 6.0.1 and also with the iOs 6.1
This isn't an issue. Notice the screen prior to the one that shows usage has an iCloud section and a Manage Storage button. For this button to activate ios needs to download a few kb from icloud. Switching back to this screen forces ios to download those few kb.

I was trying to get the iOS 8.2 on my iPhone 5 but then it stopped and my phone is now on recovery mode I have pictures I need and they did not all fit on iCloud how can I use the phone again with ALL my pictures and videos without restoring it?
Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes? If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created.
