Can you use old iPhone 3GS on Sprint?

I have a friend who has an old 3GS and offered it to me since my phone is older, I wanna get it off him. I know you can get them free with a 2 year contract, but I still have a year left and just wanna have the phone switched out. Is that possible or are the 3GS phones that Sprint carries now new models or something that support CDMA?

So I guess that means you've never heard of China, Japan, Canada, Mexico, and many of the countries in the Carribean?

Can you use a Iphone 3GS charger with an ipad2?

I don't want to damage my new iPad that I bought over in the US that obviously came with a American charger!

i've tried various ones but i will have to admit they were 3rd party dock cables.. like energizer and i could never seem to get them to attach to my iphone 4, so i gave up. im pretty sure when the iphone 4 came out they did away with the little tabs on the side that you depress to attach or let go of the cable and i assumed it was these tabs that prevented energizer's brand of dock cable from staying put. ill try again i guess. i've tried like 3 different models and none of them seemed
to fit and i don't want to force it

Can you purchase the iPhone 3GS with cash?

Just like the subject asks, can you buy an iPhone 3GS with cash, or do you need to use a credit card? I'm selling my 3G on Craigslist (for cash, obviously), and would rather just run to the Apple Store and pay with that and save myself a trip to the ATM.

For new customers I believe they need a credit card. But for existing customers you can give them cash and they will put it on a gift card and then swipe the gift card. For some reason, they have to do it like that.

Can I use my iphone 3GS exchange iphone 4

I am in australia.can I use my iphone 3GS exchange iphone 4

Sorry. That doesn't make sense.
If you're trying to ask if you can exchange an iPhone 3GS for an iPhone 4, no. Apple does not have an upgrade program that would allow you to do this. If your 3GS is not functioning, and you want an out of warranty exchange, you will be given the exact same model as you have now.

I just purchased a Samsung DVD player with a USB port; says you can use a PC or player to play music; I tried to use my iPhone but it doesn't recognize it. Can you use an iPhone as a player, or would it have to be an iPod

I just purchased a Samsung DVD player with a USB port; Samsung says you can use a PC or player to play music using the USB port; I tried to use my iPhone but it doesn't recognize it. Can you use an iPhone as a player, or would it have to be an iPod? Or is there some ap?

Skip the DVD player use an HDMI connection to your system.
Use this http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD098ZM/A/apple-digital-av-adapter?fnode=3a&fs =s%3Dalpha
or for just Audio use the 3.5 MM jack.

Can you use an iphone in Haiti using a SIM card for airtime?

Can you use a SIM card for airtime minutes in an iphone in Haiti?

You will need the SIM card that was used when the iPhone was activated in order to restore the iPhone with iTunes if wanted or needed.
If you have an activated SIM card with the same carrier the iPhone was sold as carrier locked with, you can use that SIM card with a restore.

Can you use old droid chargers on the droid turbo

can you use the old chargers say droid razr maxx to charge your turbo?

The Droid Razr Maxx charger will charge your Turbo but at a somewhat reduced rate of charge and take a much longer time period to reach full charge. The "Turbo Charger" gives an increase in voltage that it delivers to higher than a regular 5 volt USB charger. This allows for a faster charge rate and the battery has been made and tested for this faster/higher heating range to be safe.

Can I use old iPhone 4S in Europe for WiFi, w/o cellular service? A few Qs not found in Support Community-

I wish to upgrade to iPhone 6, but first want to know if I can use my iPhone 4S for camera, iMessaging and apps (i.e. What’s App) on Wifi after it is disconnected from U.S. Verizon network?
iPhone 4S, iOS 7.1.2 (reluctant to upgrade to 8.1.2), Verizon, U.S. only
Mac Mini, OSX 10.9.5 (reluctant to upgrade to OSX Yosemite)
I’ve read all of the old posts (2011 thru July 2014), but still have questions. This is what I understand:
Upgrade iOS and apps with iTunes, before transferring to new iPhone 6
Change the name of my old iPhone http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201997 (if I wish to name my new iPhone what my old one was called)
Enable airplane mode, then re-enable just wifi
Activate new iPhone
Transfer data to new iPhone http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT2109
QUESTIONS:
Q: When connected to WiFi in England, Italy and Sicily - do I keep it in Airplane Mode even though it has been disconnected from Verizon and I will have an active iPhone 6 on my Verizon account being used by my husband at home in the U.S.?
Q: Will there be a problem sync’ing to iTunes in the future, or my Mac Mini? Will it conflict with my new iPhone 6? Or is it just considered a different device, once it has a new name.
Q: How can I message my husband in the U.S. with the iPhone 6 from Europe using my old iPhone 4S on Wifi only? Do I use my iCloud account, like I do from my Mac Mini to my iPhone? Or can I set up a new iMessage account on the old iPhone 4S
I appreciate any insights and answers. Thanks in advance!
Daphne

It doesn't have to be that complicated, Verizon iPhones come unlocked, just tell VZ you're going on Holiday/Traveling and suspend the service, no need to pay for service if you're not going to be using it. Pick up local SIM cards in the countries of your choosing, pop them in, re-activate iMessage and you're set!
I recommend getting a SIM card from the Three network in England, they have great EU roaming rates and free like-home roaming in Italy.
Set your phone's region to match the country you're in, it'll save from some headaches when calling local/international numbers.
To answer your questions,
1. If you choose not to have a local SIM card, it is good to keep your phone in Airplane mode to save battery.
2. Make sure the two iPhones have different names to reduce sync/restore issues.
3. If husband has an iPhone also, you can chat with iMessage/Facetime, just give him heads up about the new number you'll have. Otherwise, use Whatsapp if he's got an Android. You can activate Whatsapp with your American number or the international number if you choose to get a SIM in Europe.
Also, Get the MagicJack app and/or Google Hangouts, both of those apps provide you with free calling to the USA and Canada using any internet connection. Google Voice is another good way to SMS across the seas.
Let me know if you need any more tips for iPhoning across the pond.

Can you help unlocking iPhone 3gs

I have been in touch with iTunes and I was informed that iPhone 3gs which I bought from EBay over 3-4 years ago is looked on 02 UK, I got in touch with 02UK and my son bought me a credit £20 so 02 UK can unlock my iPhone 3gs remotely and afterward I was informed I should have made a phone call from UK and I made it clear I live in Ireland? Guess what happened? Nothing happened I wasted phone calls to 02 UK and £20 credit, what you call that just ripe off
Will iTunes Ireland can help? I hope so
Regards to all

You are right? I am wishful thinking and bit slow? Apple cannot unlock the old phone sorry i have displayed that I been so simple and slow

Can I use my iPhone 3Gs in Japan with a Japanese Sim-Card?

Hi there,
three years ago I've been to Japan for an exchange study program and at that time I had a HTC but as far as I remember, since Japanese people didn't have Sim-Cards, I had to buy a brand-new Softbank's mobile phone.
So since I got another scholarship for Kyoto, I was wondering if something has been changing in these last three year and if I could eventually use my Italian iPhone 3Gs by inserting a Softbank o AU or Docomo's Sim-Card.
Thank you in advance for your precious help and sorry for my poor English

Hello
You can only use your 3Gs in another country if it is NOT locked to an Italian carrier Or
you can get it unlocked if it is so restricted
I assume someone with knowledge of the Japanese market can comment on the availability of a suitable sim but your iPhone must be unlocked before you can use another carrier's sim

Can you use your Iphone as a wifi-hub for Ipad?

Is it possile to buy the Ipad2 wifi and then use your Iphone Data plan to connect your ipad to 3G network? Therefore using my iphone as a wifi-hub for the Ipad instead of paying for another data plan?

Absolutely you can do this. If you have iPhone 3GS or iPhone 4 and your carrier offers a tethering plan, you can certainly use that to give your iPad a wifi hotspot anywhere you have 3G service. AT&T offers tethering. There is additional cost and for anyone who had an ulimited data plan with AT&T, they will have to give up the unlimited option and agree to a capped data plan. Currently, that option costs $45/month and includes (I believe) 4GB of data/month.

Can I use my Iphone 3Gs in another country?

Hi,
I'm got an Iphone 3GS awhile back and I'm planning to visit my home country (Philippines) for a month or so for an extended wedding/birthday of my sister.
I heard that Apple is connected with Globe Telecoms back in the Philippines. So I was wondering if I could use a Globe simcard for my Iphone while I'm at the country? It's currently locked to ATT. Do I need to go to Globe Telecoms there to be able to use a Globe simcard?
Any info/help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

The iPhone is carrier locked to AT&T. A locked phone means no other SIM can work in it.
Now the phone can work out there, however, you have to call AT&T and temporarily add the option about being out of country (forget what they call it). It will cost a tab more to make calls and use data but it is far cheaper than paying roaming charges if you don't add it.
You are not going to find a way to use the iPhone with any other carrier's SIM (legally).
