If i reset the iphone 3 will it erase my sim card?

The iPhone writes no data to the SIM card, so resetting the phone will not affect the SIM card at all.

Daughter reset my iphone 4 now it ask for sim card but phone dont have one

my daughter reset my iphone 4 now its asking for sim card but it don't have a sim card slot

Is this a 4 or 4s? What is the model number on the back? If its A1431 or A1387, it is a 4s, and does indeed have a sim tray. A1349 or A1332 will indicate an iphone 4.

If the receipt says "unlocked" (and not "SIM free") then it will work anywhere in the world that there is a GSM network. However, if it ever needs repair you will have to take it back to France.

Can the iPhone 5 be unlocked to allow SIM card installation for international service?

All iPhones require a SIM for activation.
Insert a SIM in the iPhone.

Is the Iphone 4 compatible with "Pay & Go" Sim Cards?

I'm thinking of purchasing an Iphone 4G, but I'm not old enough to apply for a contract, so there's no way of me being able to phone anyone. My question is if it's possible for me to:
1) Purchase an Iphone 4G with a "No Term", meaning no contract.
2) Then insert a "Pay & Go" Sim Card, which will allow me to pay a certain amount of money on it when ever i want, & then use my phone for calls, etc... until the money runs out?
Will this allow me to access the internet & call other phones?
Thanks!
Additional Details
One little detail. I might buy the phone in Germany and use it in Canada... Will the Pay and go sim work?

Unlocking & no contract are two entirely different things. An officially unlocked phone can be used on any compatible carriers network with the appropriate activated sim. No contract means that the phone is not subsidized, you pay full price, but are commitment free. No contract phones can still be carrier locked, I.E.- in the US you can purchase a no contract iphone at full price, but the phone is still locked to AT&T.

Does the iPhone 5 come with a nano sim card for canadian carriers?

If you pre-order the iPhone 5, does the box include the nano sim card?

If you buy an iPhone that is locked to one of the carriers, then yes, it will come with the appropriate SIM. If you buy an unlocked iPhone, you will have to get a SIM from the carrier.

My iphone 4s doesn't recognize my SIM card

I went to trade 4S for 5C and couldn't get credit for it because I couldn't wipe phone. Can I get a functioning SIM card to trade in otherwise good phone? It looks brand new and is a year old.

Hello greg5844.
I'm sorry you are having difficulty trading in your phone. The iPhone 4S doesn't require a SIM card to function but does have the option for an optional Global SIM card. If you are trying to erase your personal information from your iPhone 4S please make sure you turn off iCloud first (Settings>iCloud) and then go to Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings.

HT201328 How to unlock iphone before you get a new sim card?

I read the article on unlocking the iphone 4, and got permission from the carrier to unlock it. But the instruction assume you already have a 2nd / diferent sim card. How do you unlock the iphone before you get a new sim card? I.e, as in unlocking it before going overseas where you will purchase a country specific sim card?
Thanks,
Bobj.

I restored my AT&T locked iPhone without a different sim, & got the congratulations screen. So, do this:
1. Sync your phone to create a current backup.
2. When finished, hit the "Restore" button.
3. When done, you should get the "Congratulations" screen.
4. If you do, restore your phone from the backup you made when you started.
5. Sync your content back to your phone.
That's it. You're done.

Or just cut it in half and throw it in the trash... Or just throw it in the trash. Or swallow it. I'm sure digestive acids would adquately erase anthing that might be on it.

Find My iPhone Activation Lock- Removing a device from a previous owner’s account
Only the former owner can remove the Find My Phone lock and erase the device. That can be done remotely. Without this the device is useless to you because it will be permanently locked.

If I reset my iPhone 4S will all my my info be lost?

If I reset my iPhone 4S will all my my info be lost? Thhis is if I do not sync from a an old account when the reset it finished. I have game center so does that mean that games that ue that will be aved? And I think I have an iCloud account will that save anything? The reason I want to do this is because the wifi on my phone is screwed, I have reset my phone restarted it, reset network settings and it still does not work. Could this be a hardware issue?

You will lose all app data and all settings.
If you sync your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service, you can sync them back.
Apps and iTunes purchased media can be synced back from your computer iTunes library or re-downloaded from the store.
If you import all your photos and videos to an app on your computer before restoring, you can sync them back to your phone

You may have to try deleting all the music from your phone (by going to Settings>General>Usage>Music, swipping All Music and tapping Delete), then sync it all back on with iTunes in order to fix this.

Hello Sean,
It sounds like you are constantly needing to restore your phone because it keeps going into recovery mode. Usually putting a device into recovery mode and restoring it can help isolate an issue to your iPhone hardware if an issue persists afterwards. I would try manually putting it into recovery mode and restoring it 1 more time:
If you can't update or restore your iOS device

If that does not resolve it the symptoms indicate to me that it is a hardware issue causing this to happen and would seek service for it:

All the best,
