I want to buy an US iPhone and use it in Brazil

As the subject tells I want to use an US iPhone here in brazil. nothing personal, nut they are cheaper in US and I have an uncle who is there right now. I can ask him to buy one and bring it back. I just wanna know if its possible to use it here in brazil with my current carrier(Claro). Any one knows if I can do it or any one have done it before who can help me?

When purchasing a new iPhone 3G in the U.S., activation with AT&T is required at the store when the iPhone 3G is purchased. You can cancel the contract within the first 30 days without being charged an early contract termination fee, but you must return the iPhone and all package contents to the store where the iPhone 3G was purchased in order to not be charged the early contract termination fee. You can cancel the contract after the first 30 days keeping the iPhone, but AT&T will charge a $175 early contract termination fee and whatever is owed for the first month or until the contract is cancelled - along with an activation fee, which is $35.
And you must know if your carrier will unlock an iPhone that was sold in another country as carrier locked with a designated provider. If Clari is not the designated provider for the iPhone in Brazil, they won't have the unlock code for the iPhone. And Apple, AppleCare, or the designated provider for the iPhone 3G sold in Brazil will not provide any support for an iPhone that was purchased in the U.S. which is sold as carrier locked with AT&T only in the U.S. If a problem arises that requires an exchange under warranty, you would need to return the iPhone to your Uncle in the U.S. If an iPhone 3G that was purchased in the U.S. is unlocked - unofficially or officially by a designated provider for the iPhone in another country, doing so is against Apple's license agreement for the iPhone, is not supported by Apple, and voids the warranty.

I want to buy a new iphone and use it like an ipod, what do I need to do to make it work?

Okay, I know people say I should just buy an iPod instead... but I want better quality. If I buy the iPhone 5s unlocked, what sim card do I need to get to get just to activate the new device, and not pay a monthly fee. I already have a phone and I have wifi... so I just want to use the iPhone with wifi. Some say you should use an old/ deactivated sim card to activate it, but I'm not sure that will work. When I look on ebay to purchase one, they say not for new or fisrt time activations. What should I do???

virgin mobile sells the iphone 5s and because its month to month just dont put the sim card in the phone and it wont ever be activated you can use it like a regular iphod touch, my little brother does this but we bought a ipod 4th generation for 100 dollars took the sim card out and use it as a ipod for him

Can I buy just 1 Iphone and use it in 2 locations: USA and Brazill.Just changing the chips as once in Brazil i have and account already and here I will be under my husband's phone account

Can I buy just 1 Iphone and use it in 2 locations: USA and Brazill.
While in USA using the account here under my husband’s phone account (our home is here)
HOWEVER, I work in Brazil and there I have a phone account on my name.
Can I use the same phone (where all my information is stored) and just change the chip of phone company?
Seems pretty silly on the first moment on reading the questions, BUT for me, it means a lot as I could have just one phone, as already have to carry so many other electronic stuffs!
Look fwd your advise

Depends on where you buy.
ALL U.S. iphones are carrier locked and CANNOT be unlocked. If you buy an iphone in the U.S., then you will not be able to put a different SIM
Some countries sell unlocked iphones. These can be used with other SIM cards.

My mom doesn't want to buy me a iPhone, and I really want one how do I get her to say yes?

Help

Tell her that when you go out she can make it a rule you have to call her every half hour and tell her what you are doing with whom. You will also run the "Find my Friends" app so she can keep track of your physical locaiton. If you do anything to try to get around this you agree to be grounded.

I have an old Iphone 3g and want to buy a new iphone but am afraid I will lose my contacts list

I want to buy a new Iphone. I currently have an old 3g. I want to be sure that I don't lose the contacts on my phone. I have some numbers on there that are not on my contacts list that is on my ipad. How do I do this?

To sync contacts to your new iPhone you want to first
1: Connect iPhone 3G to computer with the latest version of iTunes (11.0.4.)
2: From there click under the device summary and look for your iPhone.
3: You should be on a page that should say summary on the top part of your phone where it'll say "Summary, info, music, applications, etc.
4: Click on Info and then you should see a box where you can put a check mark next to the words, "Sync Contacts."
5: Sync your contacts
Option 2:
1: Go to the summary page as described above and make a backup of your iPhone 3g onto your iTunes
2: connect your iPhone 5 and then open up the summary page
3: ON the summary page you want to click on "Restore backup" and select the backup you JUST made today (check the time stamp)
4: THis should put all your contacts, pictures, and settings from your old phone onto your new phone with no issues
HOpe this helped

1. Don't do it and waste your money
2. The US prices exclude Tax which is added at the till depending on state and can be upto 15% more than the quoted price. All EU retail prices are required to include local taxes and import duties by regulation.
3. On return to the EU you are liable for 22% VAT on your purchase
4. The iPhone does NOT have an international warranty.It breaks you are stuffed.
5. The US models do NOT support all European LTE frequencies .None support the Band 7 (2600mhz) frequency being deployed by many European Mobile networks.
6. Buy locally if you want all functionality warranty support and when taxes are included the prices are pretty much the same anyway.

I am residing in Doha, Qatar (Middle East) and I wanted to buy the unlock iPhone 4S but not sure if the phone will work here... please help... thanks

It does not. It has listed :ATX Connector 24 (20+4) Pin X 1 PC, P4-12V 4 Pin X 1 PC, SATA 15 Pin X 2PC, IDE/Molex 4 Pin X 6
You need something with 2x PCI Express 6 pin connectors.
If you have enough 4 pin connectors left over after hooking up the rest of your computer this might still work though, if you use some adapters. They require two 4 pin connectors to power one 6 pin. I recommend looking inside your computer and figuring out which connectors you will need.

i wanted to ask whether the camera for ipod touch comparable to a digital camera? if not are there apps available that can turn it into a digital camera? i want to buy an ipod touch and i like photography....what should i do? plz suggest

The iPod touch has a very rudimentary camera. It has only a 0.6 MP resolution, no optical zoom, no flash, etc. There is no app that can improve this as it is limited by the hardware. So it is not a replacement for a digital camera (nor even for an iPhone whose camera has a 5.0 MP resolution.

Either use the Apple ID you used when you originally purchased the applications or you will have to purchase them using your Apple ID. If you did not have the other Apple ID, then you have the applications illegally or they were improperly included with a computer you purchased from someone else.
