Factory Unlocked iPhone 4 T-Mobile US APN Settings

I have an Factory Unlocked iPhone 4 in the United States and need to know the APN settings and MMS settings for the internet. I know that only EDGE works but that is fine with me. Can anyone help me. Thanks.
I am also running iOS 4 as I am unable to update to 4.0.1 due to iTunes not being able to reach the iPhone update servers.
If theres a fix for the update servers also please let me know. Thanks.

hi. just want to ask if at this time, there are still no factory unlocked iphones in the US.
I know in the UK, Canada, France, Hongkong, etc., iphones are factory unlocked. I'm not sure though if at this time, there are still no factory unlocked iphones in the US. I'm also considering the fact that the government ruled that jailbreaking is legal.
Thanks.

I had my iphone 4 factory unlocked, why cant i see the apn settings.

I have a Iphone 4 iOS 6 AT&T that was factory unlocked.
Went thru the whole process itunes confirmed it was unlocked
When I went to put my APN Information that option is not available
If I go thru a 3rd party APN installer I get the internet but no MMS.
I did the Iphone configurator with no success
I'm running on a AT&T network, but with NET10 Provider
Does anyone have solution to this madness..Thanks in advance

Apple does not give any official method to set MMS Settings even with the ICU Program. You can use the "Sim Swap" method to set MMS Settings but apart from that there is no way (Unless you want to jailbreak the iPhone which most people don't want to do)

T-Mobile SIM card won't work with my replacement factory unlocked iPhone 5

On Saturday, my rear camera on my factory unlocked iPhone 5 stopped focusing. I took it in to my nearest Apple store and they replaced it. Problem is, now I can't get my T-Mobile SIM card to work with the replacement phone. The guys at the genius bar sent me to T-Mobile to see if a new SIM card would fix the problem, but I'm still getting an "Unsupported SIM" error when I try to activate the phone. Any insights?

Do you have information about the model no. of original purchase that is printed on the back cover ?
What is model no. of the replacement iPhone 5 ?
If T-mobile SIM worked on the original purchase and does not work on the replacement iPhone 5, they gave you a wrong model.

Factory unlocked iPhone 4S ios 5.1.1 emoji is not working under some circumstances

I have a factory unlocked iPhone 4S
I have a $50 monthly 4g plan on tmobile but I doubt that is relevant
I am running iOS 5.1.1
Whenever I send emojis to other iPhones my recipients cannot see them unless it is on iMessage.
Even on the Facebook app, I can see emojis that friends send me in messages but when I reply with an emoji via facebook it says "message cannot be delivered at this time"
However one single emoji does work on Facebook and it is the red heart
Can someone help me fix this or at least tell me why it won't work?
I can see emojis fine but for some reason I can't send them. Not even on facebook

T-mobile is not a supported carrier of iphones and not all functions will work. this is probably the reason emojis will not work. Switch to At&T

Need help with using Factory Unlocked iPhone 4 (GSM) in US

Hi all I have an factory unlocked iPhone 4 (GSM) which is bought overseas. I will come to the US soon but I don't know how can I continue using with the US carriers.
Any solution?

If it is truly unlocked, just sign up for a plan with AT&T when you get to the US and insert the MicroSIM. AT&T will not permit pre-paid plans on iPhones. T-Mobile will, but they are not a supported carrier and you will not get 3G data speeds, only Edge. Other features may not work correctly such as MMS messaging, FaceTime, etc.

Date Time issue factory unlocked iphone 4s

I have a factory unlocked iphone 4s bought in Apple store US and currently in India. In Settings -> General -> Date & Time, I am setting "on" Set Automatically. After some time say 2-3 hours, the time automatically moves back by 30 minutes. In India there is no daylight savings. I am forced to set "off" for the "Set Automatically" option and then choose the timezone, time to keep it to the correct time. Anyone facing this issue ? By setting it to "Set Automatically" on, my understanding is it should sync with the mobile provider ("Airtel"). Is this a bug in iOS ?

i have same problem i also went to apple store but the can not find any problem i don't know what to do ?
i hop it's just a sofware problem

Factory unlocked iPhone 5 having problems sending/receiving sms

Hello,
I recently bought a factory unlocked iPhone 5 from the apple store in the US and I am unable to send/receive any sms/texts using my mobile provider B&YOU located in France.
Can anyone help with ways to solve this issue?
Thanks,
Suligadal

Hello Sk8Dreams,
Thanks for your questions and quick feedback. Yes I turned on SMS & MMS in my settings and yes my plan includes SMS & MMS. I tried something I saw in the forum concerning enabling the "show subject field" and for some strange reason, I am able to send messages after trying this. Seems strange, I am going to disable this "show subject field" and see if it will work or not. SMS should work regardless of if this option is active shouldn't it?
Thanks

Buying a factory unlocked iPhone 5s in the Apple store?

I live in Ireland but I'll be visiting Boston in February. I was wondering if I can buy a factory unlocked iPhone 5s in store without having to order online. Also, I've seen a lot of opposing agruments about whether or not "unlocked" T-Mobile iPhones are actually unlocked. If they've worked for anybody please let me know, thanks.

However; Apple cannot promise that the LTE bands will work in Ireland for your device.
We cannot make promises; or say it will...We can only state that the bands /MAY/ work. And again your warrenty cannot be carried out OOW or in warrenty in your country

"Factory Unlocked" iPhone 5s activation

Hi! I just received my sealed "factory unlocked" iPhone 5s as i did last year when iPhone 5 came out... Last year i had no problems i just turned the device on followed activation instructions at the end i just inserted my local sim and it worked fine.
Today (after almost a year) i removed my sim to put it on the new "UNLOCKED" phone and the first thing i noticed as stated by the online store it was a tmobile sim card
"If you buy iPhone for T-Mobile, it will arrive with a nano-SIM card already installed that you can activate by visiting an Apple Retail Store or a T-Mobile store or by calling T-Mobile."
Ok no problemo i said... because of this:
"When you travel internationally, you can use a nano-SIM card for iPhone 5s from a local GSM carrier. "
but the thing is when i inserted my local sim this time it asked me for an activation and then, surprise!!:
I already restored, tried over iTunes, with Tmobile sim, without the sim, with my local sim and it's still the same... I'm actually waiting for 6:00am when tmobile opens the call center so i can try an activation, would that be the way (call tmobile first) to internationally use this phone? has anybody else had this problem? Is there a faster way to fix this?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Thanks of posting this question. Have you figure it out? I cant find definitive answers anywhere about using iPhone internationally. Very frustrating. When i call Apple I get answers like "U.S. laws work in the U.S." They basically dont know. But I see people using their smart phones abroad and i doubt they are paying International rates.
I am about to travel for one year all over Europe, Russia and Middle East. I am on Verizon plan in the U.S., but don't want to add International plan - too expensive. I am going go freeze Version for a year, which will allow me to use my iPhone for internet when there is WiFi.
I would like to buy an unlocked Apple 6 (no contract) but only if I can buy a local (Turkish, Russian, French) SIM card in the foreign county and use my phone both as a phone and a device to search internet.
Second question. If I buy iPad with cellular, can I insert local SIM card without any problem?
Somebody said "unlocked" is not the same as "factory unlocked." Is the situation the same with new iPhone 6?
Greatly appreciated!
Irina

Factory unlocked iPhone 4S cannot send mms

I have a factory unlocked iPhone 4S (previously with AT&T, now used with TMobile). After I downloaded the most recent update, I am no longer able to send or receive picture messages. How do I fix this?

Wait for the carrier update that will make it compatible with T-Mobile. Coming some time between now and 4/12.

Factory Unlocked iPhone

I just bought a factory unlocked iPhone 4S. Will restoring everything from my locked iPhone 4 lock this new phone?
I need to take this new phone out of the country soon so I don't want to accidentally lock it.

T-Mobile where? T-Mobile in the US is not a supported carrier and is not fully compatible with the iPhone.
It is not realistically possible to convert a MicroSIM into a NanoSIM. The NanoSIM is thinner, as well as smaller. Unless you want to try and sand it down without damaging the electronics inside, just wait. T-Mobile will probably have NanoSIM's in a few months once demand stabilizes. The iPhone is their only growth opportunity right now. Some would say unlocked iPhones on their network are their only hope of survival.

Changing sim in a factory unlocked iPhone- connect to iTunes?

Can someone please confrim as I am getting mixed messages from Apple and other users. I have bought a factory unlocked iPhone 4 from the online apple store (Canada) and activated it with my Canadian (Telus) micro sim by connecting it to iTunes. Works fine. When I travel to another country and get a new sim will I have to connect iTunes again to activate the iPhone with a new sim (eg. AT&T or T-mobile)? Some say that I need to only activate once and then I am free to pop in any micro sim (Canadian or Foreign) without going through iTunes prompt again. Others tell me that i will have to bring my computer with me to connect with iTunes to activate the new sim. Also I was told by apple that i can't stick a new AT&T sim in in iPhone 4 to activate the phone while in canada because I need an active carrier signal. I will have to activate in the US. Is this true?
You folks with unlocked iPhone 4 s please chime in and tell me your experience. Your help is gratefully appreciated.
Cheers!
ian

The problem is sloved. Turns out that Apple sent me a replacment iPhone 4 that was only unlocked to Canadian carriers. The iPhone 4 you buy on the apple.ca online store comes world wide unlocked. At first they were trying to tell me that the apple online phones are only unlocked to Canandian carriers but this was confrimed with sales that no they are world wide unlocked. Apple updated my profile for the iPhone4 and now I can stick any sim (Rogers, Telus, Bell, A&T, T-mobile) into the iPhone 4 and there is NO prompt to connect to iTunes. Also confirmed that you do not need to be near an AT&T carrier signal to have the iPhone activate. I was in Canada and stuck in an AT&T sim and it found Rogers on roaming and it was fine.

I bought an factory unlocked iphone 3gs at the apple store today and just ordered a sim card activation kit and a 30 dollar minute card for it. the sim will work in the unlocked iphone am i correct?

If T-Mobile in the US, while your phone will activate/work, you won't have FaceTime, MMS or 3G. T-Mobile, in the US, is not a supported iPhone carrier, thus all features of the iPhone may not be available. T-Mobile's 3G network, in the US, is not compatible with the iPhone.

HT4061 Can I use and factory unlocked iphone 4s with verizon

I purchased a factory unlocked Iphone 4s and would like to use it with Verizon is this possible?

Unlocked iphones are GSM network version. Verizon use CDMA network. You will only be able to use an unlocked phone with AT&T properly or T-Mobile with reduced functionality.
