Can I switch phone numbers between two iPhones?

I have ordered a 3GS, replacing my wife's 2G model. She will now get my 3G model. Do we have to change phone numbers or is there a way to move my 3G number with the 3GS and vice versa. It would be much better if that was possible.

I also wish to switch phone numbers between phones. I just got off the phone with AT&T customer support. You can handle this over the phone. Need to have the two phones in hand at the time. I got through to customer support today with less than one minute on hold. I was quite surprised. AT&T must have really staffed up for the release.

Can I switch phone numbers between 2 different phones?

Currently my husband wants my Motorola Droid Razor since he can't stand his iPhone anymore. I was wondering if I could transfer my phone to his iPhone and move his phone number to my Razor. Does it cost anything?

You can do this, and there is no charge to swap devices. Since both lines are active, you should go to a store and have the rep there do the swap. Keep in mind that the iPhone has a different voicemail system so neither one of you will have access to any existing voicemail messages on your current number once the swap is complete.

Switch phone numbers between 2 different sized SIM Cards?

Contact your carrier to have them give you appropriate sized sim cards with the correwct numbers and services.
Alternatively, you can cut the larger sim card down to the correct size, and place the smaller sim card in an adapter to make it larger.

But contacting your carrier would be the better option.

Swap phone numbers between two different accounts.

I currently have two phone plans and two phones. One is on my mother's account and the other is a new phone I just started on my Fiance's account. They are completely separate from each other. My mother has a plan she own's and my fiance has a plan she owns.
My question is; is it possible to swap numbers between the 2 phones? I want the number from my old phone that is on my mother's plan to be on my new phone that I just got. My mother plans on letting the other phone run out of contract and cancelling the line. I know I can swap the sim cards, but that would put my new phone on the wrong plan.

Why didn't you perform an Assumption of Liability (AOL) to transfer your original line from your mother's account to your fiancé's account?

Can I change phone numbers on an iPhone?

I just ordered an iPhone 5 for my wife. I want it for myself, but I'm not eligible yet. My wife is eligible, but she could care less what phone she uses. So can I change the iPhone 5 phone number when I get it so that it is my number instead of hers? And then would need to change my iPhone 4S from my phone number to her phone number. Is that possible and does it cause any issues with apps or anything like that?
Thanks in advance!
Greg

You would have to talk to the carrier about actually doing it, but it is certainly doable (AT&T can do it over the air if you just call them) if these are both numbers on one family or shared account. And no, the phone number will not affect apps or content - that is tied to your AppleID.
If you each have separate accounts it would be more complicated, as the numbers would have to be moved to different accounts. Again, doable, but honestly, I would prefer to go into my carriers (AT&T) corporate store to do it - that way you have them captive until you are sure it has actually been successfully done and both phones are actually re-provisioned and working with their new numbers.
If you have iMessage accounts associated with those numbers though, before you swap the numbers, select the AppleID in Messaging and log out. Then log back in (with the right AppleID) once the new number is programmed and it will re-associate the number with the right iMessage account.

Can I switch sim cards between 2 iPhone 4s?

My dad just bought a white iPhone 4 and he said he'd give it to me if I gave him my black one. Can this be done?

Yep, the SIM cards can be swapped without issue.
Keep in mind the SIM card only contains your AT&T subscriber information, and will only switch over the number associated with the phone.
Your Contacts, Apps, Music and all other content will not carry over with the SIM.
You can however restore the iPhones through iTunes and choose to restore from your respective backups to swap the info over.

Can I switch sim cards between activated iPhone 4 and activated iPhone 4S?

I have an iPhone 4 16Gb full of music. I just received a new iPhone 4S which I've already activated. I want to give my wife my iPhone 4 but I want to keep my telephone number. Can I just swap the sim cards? Are there any issues?

The first iPhone 4 was mine. My wife doesn't have a phone at all. It's on AT&T. I've only had it for a few months and have upgraded it to IOS 5. When the iPhone 4S came out, I decided I wanted one. I decided to order a 4S for myself and give my wife my iPhone 4. I received the 4S today and activated it with AT&T. They are currently on separate plans, both on my account and at the end of the billing cycle I plan to put them on a "Family Plan".
Are there any other pertinent details that may have a bearing on whether I can swap the sims or not? The goal is simply for me to keep the original phone number from the iPhone4 by switching it to the 4S. If it's going to be any hassle at all, I'll just give my wife the 4 as is and tell my company my new phone number. It's not that big a deal to me.
My ultimate goal is to ditch my land line and change my wife's iPhone number (whichever one it ends up being) to the number we currently have on the land line so she can keep getting calls from her friends, which amounts to 99% of the calls we get at on the land line. I only get calls from her on my cell phone so changing my number is not a big deal.

How can I swap phone numbers between Verizon and T-Mobile phones?

I have Verizon and T-Mobile phones. My wife uses the T-mobile phone and I the Verzion phone. I was given a GSM iPhone 5 that I want to use on the T-mobile account, so I want to move the Verzion phone number to the T-Mobile phone and the T-Mobile number to the Verzion phone. I do not want to have to inform all our friends about the number swap. I also would like to maintain phones on different networks for reliability and connectivity assurance.
I called the Verizon wireless number and the person couldn't help me. The best I can figure out is to give up on Verizon and move the Verizon phone number to a new T-mobile account.
Any ideas?

They are both 4g phones correct? All verizon phones come unlocked. If the verizon phone works with tmobile all you do is take the sim card out and stick it in the phone. however when you do this it is going to erase everything on the phone so make sure you back it up before swaping sim. As far as using the tmobile phone with verizon you would need to ask tmobile if the phone is unlocked

Swapping Cell Phone Numbers Between Two Phones...

I hope someone can answer this question before I got ahead and order my iPhone 4 on the 10th.
Ok...right now I have my Incredible. I am adding the Family Share Plan in which I'm adding a second line to get the iPhone 4 for $299. My question is once I get the new iPhone 4 with the new number can I TRANSFER numbers where my original number I have NOW can be ported to the iPhone 4 and the NEW number goes back to the Incredible. Is that possible??? Thanks.

Yes you can swap the numbers once you get it. You can do it online, via #228 or a call to Customer Service.

Any way to switch phone numbers between phone lines....

I have 2 phones under my name, 1 of which has the unlimited data plan, which I currently have suspended because I don't use. I would like to upgrade my other phone because the phone I have is giving me problems, but I do not want to pay ridiculous fees and such for the data plan. Is there any way to transfer the phone number from the phone I use to the other phone, so that I may have the unlimited plan, and also cancel the unused phone? Thanks.

There a couple of different issues you'll want to consider here:
1) If you use the upgrade from the line you want to cancel, you will start a new contract on that line and owe a $175 ETF if you purchase a basic phone or a $350 ETF if you purchase a smartphone. The contract is tied to the specific line (and phone
number), so you can't move it around. If you upgrade a line, you must keep it for 24 months or pay an Early Termination Fee.
2) Your unlimited data package is tied to the line and phone number that is currently on. That means that if you want to use the unlimited package, you'll have to activate your new phone on that line and number. You won't be able to get the unlimited data on the other number on your plan.

Can I switch my phone number between two lines(not just between phones)?

I have 4 months left on my current plan. I would like to take advantage of current holiday sales to get the droid razr for cheap. I am considering adding an additional line to my plan to get the upgrade. The problem with this is that I either have to use the new number and let my other contract end or continue on with my current number and pay for 2 lines for the next 2 years. I noticed that verizon lets you switch the phone number that is associated with your line. Would I be able to add an additional line to my plan and then switch the numbers between these two lines? Essential line A has number A and ends in 4 months, line B has number B and ends in 20 months, and I want to make it so that line B has number A and then only pay for line A for the next 4 months. Is this possible?

Verizon does not allow you to switch numbers since they are tied to your contact. However, there's a work around, because Verizon does allow you to port a number from another carrier to overwrite the existing number without changing your contract. So here's what you need to do:
1. Get the Razr cheap like you wanted on a secondary line;
2. Wait for 4 months so your main line contract is up;
3. Port out your main line number to another carrier, for example, Pageplus;
4. Wait till your bill cycle is passed and port that number from Pageplus to Verizon, overwrite the number on secondary line.
After step 4 you will have your main number back on the line with the Razr.

Can I use one phone number on two iphones with two apple ids?

My carrier allows multiple sim cards with the same phone number for usage on different devices. I would like to use a second sim card for my phone number on a second iphone, but with a different apple id.
Is it possible to use one phone number on two iphones with separate apple ids? How does this affect facetime/imessage?
I can only find answers to using the same apple id on multiple devices. This works fine, but is not what I want to do here.

You may be able to change the suspicious account activity message alerts
in your Gmail settings, and check that side of it, since I can use several
means of accessing my Gmail and Google Accounts; and in the past had
shared an account (not google) with another party half a world away when
her email server went down for a month.
The Mail software should not know the difference, unless the setup in there
is not correct; if this is so, then more than what she says would be wrong.
The Google mail Support help site pages should cover this adequately.

Hi all, i can't sync over wifi between my iPhone 4 and Windows 7 64 bit, wifi sync works with the same phone and my Windows 8 machine, tried solutions from other threads with no luck, just thought i'd see if anyone else had any ideas, thanks.

Hi all, i can't sync over wifi between my iPhone 4 and Windows 7 64 bit, wifi sync works with the same phone and my Windows 8 machine so the problem seems confined to Windows 7. I've tried solutions from other threads -
Making sure everything is allowed through firewall
Rebooting phone/laptop/router
Disabling ipv6
Disabling all networks except the one curently on
Re-installing iTunes
Restoring iPhone
No luck with any of those unfortunately so i just thought i'd see if anyone else is still without wifi sync after trying those as well and if you ever found a fix, thanks.

I just wanted to leave a note that it's working now. I'm not sure if it was the latest iTunes update that got it working or that i decided to start a new library instead of using the one i had backed up on Windows 8 (it didn't occur to me to check using the old library when i re-installed iTunes). But if anyone is having this problem, it might be worth trying again with a new installation of iTunes to see if the latest update works for you, and if not, try using a fresh library instead of a backup (by fresh library i mean discard your old library completely and start a new library, not just restore as new iPhone, a whole new library).
