Can i use the iphone 5s with Straight Talk?

Can i use the iphone 5s with Straight Talk (Walmart's plan)?  Straight Talk uses GSM technology....
Thanks!

The StraightTalk iPhones are CDMA phones. Not GSM. StraightTalk does not support the use of unlocked iPhones on their pre-paid GSM service.

  • Can I use the iPhone 4 with T-Mobile

    I want to give my iPhone 4 to my daughter, but she has T-Mobile.

    Yes if the iPhone is a GSM phone that is unlocked, but I don't believe visual voicemail is supported with T-Mobile and there will be no 3G network access with T-Mobile's network so no option to have simultaneous voice and data if wanted or needed and a much slower internet connection via T-Mobile's cellular network.

  • Can I use the iPhone 6 t-mobile version with straight talk?

    Can I use the iPhone 6 t-mobile version with straight talk?

    All,
    I have read and understand most of the post (s) on this: Apple Support Community:
    It looks like the long way around my elbow approach: (piecing together an iPhone 6+ with a Straight Talk AT&T /T Mobile; Compatible Nano SIM Card) may yet work, just a bit gun shy on the $949.00 cost for the iPhone 6+ from Apple.
    I live in Hawaii on the island of Oahu (north shore), and have  an iPhone 4 8gb cdma iPhone which is on Verizon's network rebranded by TFW / Straight Talk for several years. It works fine but I need an iPhone with more storage.
    I have had a talk / chat with both sides Apple & Straight Talk, neither have real answers to support using the iPhone 6+ with Straight Talk as a carrier.
    On the Apple site: " http://www.apple.com/iphone/LTE/ ". It is clear that Straight Talk has certified their LTE network with iPhone 6/6+ to meet basic standards.
    I / we need all of the successful trail braisers on this community to post what works & what does not work.
    What I plan / have to purchase / buy:
    Direct from Apple:
    1. Contract-free iPhone 6 Plus 128GB Space Gray (GSM) T-Mobile. (pending research to ensure it will work). Apple confirms, without the T Mobile nano sim that this iPhone is unlocked.
    Direct from Straight Talk:
    2. AT&T /T Mobile; Compatible Nano SIM Card. (GSM; on its way)
    Would have purchased a Verizon Nano SIM Card from Straight Talk but they do not seem to have one.
    All support, advice & information is greatly appreciated.

  • How can I use a bad IMEI AT&T iphone 5 with straight talk ?

    Someone sold me a bad IMEI AT&T iphone 5. I had an AT&T iphone 4 with straight talk prior to buying this phone. I didn't know the IMEI was bad so I bought the iphone 5 hoping to switch. I cut my SIM card and put it into the iphone 5. Everything worked perfectly fine so I went ahead and gave the dude the money. I went to sleep and wake up the next day and try to make a call and I get a message saying my phone has been blocked from the network. I contacted straight talk and they thought it was a problem of theirs so somehow they got my phone to work again. Everything was good , calls, texts , and data. 2 hours later, the same problem happens. So I call straight talk again , tell them the problem. They fix It again, 2 hours later , THE SAME PROBLEM. I gave up this time and began looking for answers. Is there any way I can use this iphone 5 with straight talk ? There was a comment I saw through my search for answers where if I get another straight talk sim everything would work again. Is this true? How can I use a bad IMEI AT&T iphone 5 with straight talk ?

    If that IMEI has been blacklisted by AT&T, then it is blacklisted by all USA carriers, as well as several participating Canadian and Mexican carriers.
    As of 31 October 2012, USA Cellular Providers are sharing a common IMEI/ESN database to ensure that phones blacklisted on one carrier can't be activated on another carrier.  AT&T and T-Mobile are also participating members of the GSM-networks global shared blacklists.

  • 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.

  • Can I use the airport express with a desktop computer that is not wire less- I want to have wifi in the house for an iphone

    Can i use the airport express with a desktop computer not wifi- I want wifi for my iphone

    I can't seem to find any information anywhere.  It seems like it should work since the AX is showing up on his wifi settings on both his iPhone and iPod.  Not to mention the Apple "Genius" told him that it should work.  However, they also told him that it came with an ethernet, USB and the stereo patch cables...

  • Hey Guys I Travel to the States and I am from Germany. I want to buy an iPhone 4S 8GB white Version unlocked GSM. Can I use the iPhone in Germany with every SIM Card?

    Hey Guys I Travel to the States and I am from Germany. I want to buy an iPhone 4S 8GB white Version unlocked GSM. Can I use the iPhone in Germany with every SIM Card?

    As long as you buy from an Apple retail Store (Apple owned ) an unlocked iPhone 4S it will work on GSM services worldwide
    from Apple.com
    If you buy a SIM-free iPhone, you will need to purchase a GSM-compatible micro-SIM separately. When you travel internationally, you can use a micro-SIM card for iPhone 4s from a local GSM carrier.
    The unlocked iPhone will not work with CDMA carriers such as Verizon Wireless or Sprint.
    However the warranty will NOT be valid outside the US .If you need warranty or post warranty service you will have to return the iPhone to the US in person ( cannot mail in to US )

  • I want to buy an iphone 5s (GSM, SIM-Free). While I travelling to India, can I use the iphone with a local-SIM in INDIA.

    I want to buy an iphone 5s (GSM, SIM-Free).
    While I travelling to India, can I use the iphone with a local-SIM in INDIA.

    I am looking into buying an iphone 5s (GSM, SIM-Free) from apple store in US.
    While in India, I am looking to use it with a local-SIM (Local carrier) in INDIA (Eg: Airtel, Vodaphone etc). Will it work ?
    While browsing iphone products in the Apple store, I did not find any iphone referring to "Unlocked" but ended up with SIM-free as the only option (http://store.apple.com/us/buy-iphone/iphone5s/64gb-gold-unlocked?aid=www-k2-ipho ne%205s%20-%20index-n@p&cp=k2-iphone%205…).
    I also found the following information from the apple store - When you travel internationally, you can use a nano-SIM card for iPhone 5s from a local GSM carrier. The unlocked iPhone 5s model is A1533 (GSM).
    If Apple is the only source of unlocked iphones, could someone provide the link to the store.

  • On the moment that I connect the Iphone 5 on Windows 8, it is not recognized by Itunes, but actually it appears as a usual USB cable, or as a camera. And then I can't synchronize the Iphone 5 with Itunes. So, what do i do?

    Hi pedro109,
    If your iPhone is recognized by the computer, but not seen by iTunes, you may need to restart the Apple Mobile Device Service, as described in this article -
    How to restart the Apple Mobile Device Service (AMDS) on Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1567
    Once iTunes recognizes the iPhone you should be able to sync it with iTunes. See this article
    iTunes 11 for Windows: Sync contacts, calendars, and other info with iPod, iPhone, or iPad

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

  • This is a stupid question but I needed to ask because I don't want to go there and not being able to buy it, but can I get the iPhone 5 brought straight there when I go to an apple store?

    This is a stupid question but I needed to ask because I don't want to go there and not being able to buy it, but can I get the iPhone 5 brought straight there when I go to an apple store?

    And I meant go to the apple store physically without preordering it online, and I meant the Southampton one. So could I just stroll in apple store and buy a iPhone 5 in Southampton apple store and buy the iPhone 5 straight away? Because I didn't want to have to wait? I just want to go in and buy it and go out with it, if you guys get what I mean? And felipeV if it is in stock could I just buy it and leave with my iPhone 5?

  • Can i use the iphone in Hong Kong?

    Can i use the iphone in Hong Kong?

    You can't use it in Hong Kong with a local carrier if your phone is carrier locked to your current carrier.  No info in your post to detemine whether that's the case.  You can use if you want to pay high roaming charges.

  • Can I use the iPhone 5s case for the iPhone 5?

    Can I use the iPhone 5s case for the iPhone 5?

    Do cases made for iPhone 5 also work with iPhone 5s?
    While iPhone 5 and iPhone 5s have the same shape and size, the camera and LED flash are different. So cases made for iPhone 5 may affect the camera operation on iPhone 5s, and vice versa. When shopping for cases, you should choose one specifically made for the iPhone model you own.
