Can I transfer a Sprint iPhone 5 to Verizon?

I currently have 2 iPhone 5's on my Sprint account and I am tired of the lack of Sprint coverage in the Denver, CO area. LTE probably won't be until the end of 2013 so I want to switch.
Can I take my current iPhone 5 and use it on the Verizon network?
Does my Sprint account have to be paid in full to transfer the phone (if I can?)?
Thanks! 

You will not be able to transfer the phone to Verizon, there is no "unlock" to be done on the CDMA side. Sprint won't release the phones and Verizon will not accept them.
Sprint coverage in Denver is block-by-block, not by the entire city (my brother has Sprint in Thornton and has good coverage). Before you make any move check with your neighbors and see if anyone has Verizon and what their coverage is in your area. Sprint and Verizon often share towers in an area.

  • Can I use my Sprint iPhone 5 on Verizon 4G LTE

    Hi I want to use my iPhone 5 from Sprint on Verizon's 4G LTE I have a service with Verizon already and I want to use my iPhone 5 on that carrier instead, I'm afraid though because I want to use the 4G services with Verizon and I was wondering if Sprint's 4G has a different 4G chip in it please help!
    Ps: if I can how can I? Can I take it into Verizon? Sprint?

    No.  CDMA carriers such as Sprint and Verizon don't allow phones from other carriers, even if the phone is isentical to theirs.

  • Can I use my sprint iPhone 4S with another carrier if it's unlocked

    Can I use my sprint iPhone 4S with another carrier if it's unlocked. Sprint will only unlock it if it's international. they will not unlock it if I want to use the iphone4s with another USA carrier.  Why? I have paid for the phone and don't have a contract.  I wanted to switch the SIM card and use tmobile or another provider because I am very dissatisfied with sprint service. Lots of drop calls and texting takes 15 to reach the other person.  It is horrible,,,, I hate sprint!,

    Sorry, what others here have said is wrong, wrong, wrong. There is nothing about the hardware of the iPhone 4S that would prevent a Sprint 4S from being used on T-Mobile, or any GSM carrier, international or domestic. Nothing. Zero. Zip. Zilch. Nada. Each and every 4S is 100% hardware capable of doing both GSM and CDMA out of the box. The only impediment is that Sprint would have to authorize an unlock for you. This is something they simply refuse to do. If anyone at Sprint has told you that they can't unlock a 4S for domestic use with another carrier, they have lied to your face. This, by the way, is something they're doing with everyone who asks the question - just Google search "Sprint unlock iPhone 4S", and you'll see dozens of internet threads where people talk about being lied to by Sprint about this issue. The good news is that Sprint signed an agreement with the FCC regarding letting off-contract customers unlock their phones. The agreement takes effect in mid-March, and Sprint is dragging its feet until then. Once that deadline passes, if Sprint still hasn't agreed to unlock your phone, then they're in violation of the agreement, and you can and should report them to the FCC. I sure plan to. Then I'm going to switch carriers, to one that doesn't lie to me and keep fraudulent liens on my property.

    seeing iTunes deleted my iPod, how can I transfer music from iPhone to iTunes?

    any itunes purchased music can be transferred from phone to pc via hitting the "transfer purchases" option when u right click on the phone under devices in itunes on the computer when it is plugged in. any non-itunes purchased music is stuck on the phone and cannot be transferred to the computer. u will have to load it onto the computer from the original source or from the old computer.

    how can i transfer mails from iphone to outlook

    I misread your post.  You can't transfer items to iTunes without connection to your computer.  To transfer without synching, make sure you don't have your preferences in iTunes set to automatically synch.  Then when you connect your phone but before you synch, in iTunes File>Transfer purchases.  Note that only iTunes purchased media can be transferred this way.

    how can i transfer msgs from iphone 4s using ios6 to iphone 5 using ios7 without removing any thing from iphone5?

    Thanks for the response -I thought that may be the case. I can access all the tracks in iTunes as it's part of the iTunes Match library. Is there not a way to download the tracks that are currently on the iPhone to the MacBook? I'm not trying to transfer the purchases but download the content from the cloud.
    Have I explained myself at all well?!

  • HT1766 How can I transfer music from iphone 4 to iphone 4s without using computer syncying or icloud?

    I have an iphone 4 with music downloaded from my Macbook which was originally downloaded from CDs.  I now have an iphone 4s that will not sync with my old Macbook because it does not have the most recent version of itunes.  Macbook is too old for new itunes.  I want to transfer music on iphone 4 to iphone 4s.  icloud will only transfer music to 4s that was originally purchsed through itunes and will not transfer CD music from iphone 4.  How can I transfer this music to my new phone?

    The Mac version of the iPhone PC suite supports to backup iPhone music to PC and iTunes with ID3 Tag Info preserved. Try it.
