HT4528 If iPhone bought at Verizon is it unlocked so I can use put an Italian SIM card in and how can I use the phone as a hotspot

I bought iPhone at Verizon-is it unlocked so I can put in an Italian SIM card in when I am traveling there. Can I use the iPhone as a hotspot?

No.
If a 4S, Verizon must unlock the GSM portion which then can be used with another carrier's SIM card outside of the US.
Being able to tether the iPhone is carrier dependent.

HT4528 My Iphone 4s is plugged in charging after it has fully died. Instead of the apple appearing and staying constant on the screen...the apple is blinking. What does this mean and how do I get the phone to charge/turn back on.

- Try:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Next try letting the battery fully drain. After charging for a least an hour try again
- Last, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store, it appears you have a hardware problem.

Could it be because the SIM card got damaged while I cut it to fit the IPhone?
Very likely. Hard to believe the carrier in Mexico doesn't have a micro-SIM card available.
Or somehow the Chinese carrier found out and locked it?
No, which is not possible.
What can I do? Get a new SIM and see if it works again?
Get a micro-SIM from the carrier in Mexico that you don't have to manually cut down. If that carrier doesn't provide one, switch to another carrier that is not so low-budget.

My iphone 4 is unlocked iv put an o2 sim card in and it now says carrier is o2 but no service the phones back is cracked and has a small dint in the botom corner could this have anything to do with it

The fact that it is physically damaged may have quite a bit to do with the fact that it doesn't work...

If I buy a Verizon/Sprint Phone from Apple at full price can I put an ATT SIM in it and run on ATT network?

If I buy a Verizon/Sprint Phone from Apple Unlocked at full price, can I put an ATT SIM and Run on the ATT network?

Verizon: Yes.
Sprint: No.
Sprint iPhones can not be used on any U.S. carrier other than Sprint. They can only be unlocked by Sprint for use on non-US carriers, and then only for current Sprint customers in good standing.

HT1212 I found an iphone over one year ago. Its locked with a passcode. I kept waiting for the owner to call it. They never did. I went to ATT store today, they put a new sim card in it. but now itunes needs the passcode to reset it to factory settings.

I found an iphone over one year ago. Its locked with a passcode. I kept waiting for the owner to call it. They never did. I went to an AT&T store today, they put a new sim card in it. and told me to go home, log on to itunes, and restore the phone to "factory settings".But itunes says the phone is locked and it needs the passcode to reset it to factory settings.
Any workaround? Or, am I doing something wrong here?
Thanks so much.

Sounds like you may be the owner of a new phone! If you don't need or want it and no one claims it you probably can sell it. Check eBay to see what the going rate is.
You are to be commended for at least trying to find the owner. Many wouldn't.
Best.

"The iPhone [iPhone name] could not be restored. An unknown error occurred. (-1)" what does that mean and how can I fix it?

Every time I try to update my 3g iPhone I get the same result and it ends in (-1). I tried researching to see if anyone else had this problem but nothing came up. What does the (-1) mean and how can I fix it?

Then try to restore your iOS device two more times while connected with a cable, computer, and network you know are good.
Confirm that your security software and settings are allowing communication between your device and update servers.

I want to use an old iphone as an itouch and don't have the sim card anymore and I just updated to the new software

I want to use an old iphone as an itouch and don't have the sim card anymore (cut it to fit into 4G) and I just updated to the new software.... How do I reload the phone with apps and music?

You'll need to get a SIM card. It can be an old one.

Lost some of my settings on my iphone 4s. can I put my husbands sms card in and get my settings back

My iphone email messed up some how. In trying to figure this out, I deleted my gmail account. Somehow this disabled other functions like icloud, facebook, facetime, twitter, etc. I am unable to find some of my clients' old Talk text messages, email messages, etc that were on my phone.
My husband has the same iphone with the same apps and such and we share some clients information. Can I put his sms card in my phone, back it up to itunes and then back it up to my iphone to reset everything? However, will this then put all of his messages and information onto my phone and thereby lose mine? Will I be viewing only his messages in cache or something like that? Will I even be able to view/retrieve old messages and such of mine?

Deleting an email account on a device in no way affects icloud, facebook, facetime, twitter, or any other settings on the device EXCEPT that email account and possibly contacts and calendar entries if they are linked to that account.
For what reason do you think this has occurred?
Even if it did, which it did NOT, restoring the device from the most recent backup would rectify the issue.
"We don't want to ask our client which would demonstrate irresponsibility. "
Then restore the device from the most recent backup to put everything back. If you have not been backing up the device regularly then you are irresponsible.
No amount of silly attempts to install another user's SIM card or restore their backup can possibly put YOUR content back on your device.

HT1688 After syncing my iphone with itunes, I am unable to send text messages. Has anyone else had this problem and how can it be rememdied? I have tried a reset...no luck.

I have tried a reset...no luck. Help!

Text messages are a carrier issue. Contact your wireless carrier.
Or, restore from a backup,or restore as a new device then test the issue.

Incorrect sir.
After the 30 days YOU can still purchase Apple protection plan for $69, which extends your phone support just like AC+ and your hardware warranty just like AC+ it also gives you a a free battery replacement.
The only difference between AC+ and Apple protection plan is that AC+ covers accidental damage.
Customer who do not purchase AC+ or APP will then have to purchase a Pay-Per-Incident which is a $20 fee for each issue calling in on.
Pay-Per-Incidents or PPI's last for 30 days on the one issue that they were purchased on.
No, you cannot.
An iPhone in the USA is eligible for AppleCare+ and ONLY AppleCare+. AppleCare+ completely replaced AppleCare for iPhones when it was announced. Check Apples own warranty pages on the web site. You CANNOT buy AppleCare for an iPhone in the USA - ever. It is not offered for iPhones any longer.

Dear sir
I bought my iPhone 4 from Apple store in Charlotte N/C about 2years ago without contract.
Now I tried to upgrade it to iOS 7.0.4.but after that my phone not work with last sim card.
And invalid sim appeared.so I bought it without contract but it seems to be lock in my country
Please tell me whats the matter?
My phone serial no 86034HTCA4T
Modem firmware 04.12.09
Thanks

Without contract is not the same as unlocked. The update to iOS 7 relocked
the iPhone to the wireless carrier to which it was originally locked. You must
contact that wireless carrier to see if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
If you used jailbreak or other hack to unlock the iPhone initially, the method
used may prevent a legitimate unlock from succeeding and may render your
iPhone unuseable.

I bought my iPhone 4 in Canada and have been using it here for the past 7 months. In september i will be moving to the UK and am wondering if I get a UK sim card will I be able to use it as my cell phone over there?

Hi: I don't believe that Telus provides unlocking for the iPhone. Other phones, yes, iPhone no.
