Iphone 3G sim card ejector...

I dont understand why apple gave a sim card ejector if when you put in another carriers 3G sim card it doesnt work it just says inalid sim.. why??

Because sometimes you will need to get a new one from AT&T if there are problems. And I think you would hear even more outrage if you could not remove the sim card from the phone. If you don't like the tool you can use a paperclip.

  • Can I use my iPhone 6 SIM card in a iPad Air 2

    If my iPhone 6 SIM card would work in an iPad Air 2, I would purchase the wifi + cellular model. Anyone able to answer this? Thank you

    If you could ,why would you want  do that? So you are going to be switching your SIM back and forth between devices.? Not practical. And your are going to pay more money for a Wifi+SIM model and only use it with a SIM part of the time? Not economical.
    Do what Alfred has suggested and use the Personal Hotspot on a Wifi only model if you want to "share" the SIM. Or if you buy the WIFI+SIM model opt in to a data iPad plan with your carrier. If you already have data on your iPhone, some carriers "allow you to use the data plan on more than one device for a modest add on fee. Contact your carrier.

  • I cut my iphone 4 SIM card to fit into my new iphone 5 phone

    I cut my iphone 4 SIM card to fit into my iphone 5, and it doesn't fit and be is stuck in the phone. What do I do?

    Make an appointment at the genius bar and see if they can help you get it out. Hopefully, you didn't physically damage the phone. Nano-SIMs are thinner than Micro-SIMs, as well as being smaller.
    Then, go to your carrier and get an actual Nano-SIM.

    You don't get a SIM card unlocked, your iPhone has to be unlocked to use any SIM card.  Contact your carrier and ask if they will unlock your iPhone.

    Can you put an iphone 5 sim card in a samsung galaxy 4

    The iPhone 5 uses a nano SIM card and the S4 uses a micro SIM card.
    You will need a new SIM card.  Or an adapter which might be glitchy.

  • Is iPhone 3GS SIM card activation mandatory?

    I have several scenarios.
    First: If I'm currently an iPhone 1st Generation user, can I use the old SIM card to use iPhone 3GS?
    Second: If I'm currently an iPhone 3G user, can I use the old SIM card to use the iPhone 3GS?
    Third: If I'm using the iPhone 3GS SIM card, can I use it on other phones to make calls and go online? For example iPhone 3G, iPhone 1st Generation, or any AT&T branded phones, and finally unlocked phones?
    Thanks in advance!

    As long as your existing SIM is a 3G(network) SIM as the SIM cards were in the U.K, you can insert your current SIM into your 3G S, connect to iTunes, iPhone will display a message "iPhone is activated", follow the registration process through iTunes (if you wish to) then choose to set up as a new iPhone or a backup.
    Let iTunes do its thing and you have a fully working iPhone 3G S.
    That's what I did with my original iPhone to iPhone 3G and having bought an unsubsidized 3G S from O2 I'm still using my original SIM. It's running perfectly. MMS works, Find my iPhone works, it's fantastic. Love the rotating maps :o) roll on TomTom release!
    iPhone is available in many countries, so I don't know if all carriers' SIM cards are the same as the SIM cards provided by the U.K carrier (O2).
    Hope this helps

  • I need an iphone 3g sim card

    I need an iPhone 3G sim card, where do I find it?

    Um... SIM cards come from your cellular carrier. It's what ties whatever device you are using to the cellular network. Get one from them.

  • My iphone 5 sims card is stuck.

    My iphone 5 sims card is stuck. I am trying a paper clip and the tool that apple sent. Any ideas??

    Not sure if they will replace that part at the Apple store - you would need to call and check.
    If not you would have to buy an out of warranty iphone 5 - I believe it's $199 or more.
    Make sure you back up your prior to taking it in.

  • So I need a new iPhone 3G SIM card to activate my iPhone. I hear you can get one free at Apple Retail Stores. Is this true? If not, can someone please tell me how I can get one? I need it for 3G not 3Gs. Please? I'm desperate..

    Apple does not provide SIM cards, carriers do.
    Go to your carrier and get a SIM card.  Whether it is free or not is up to them.

  • Can I move my iPhone 4 sim card to another iPhone 4 from the same carrier?

    I just shattered the screen on my iPhone 4 (AT&T model).
    I have a second iPhone 4 (also an AT&T model ... a friend switched carriers and got an Android. I have their now unused iPhone 4).
    I want to know if I can swap my SIM card out from my iPhone 4 into their iPhone 4.
    I think, in theory, that I should be able to do this, and if I restore their iPhone with my iTunes, that it should sync, and recognize it as if it were my same phone.
    HOWEVER ... I had a problem with some features when I went from my iPhone 3Gs to my iPhone 4 when I upgraded: saying this device has a different serial number or UDID or something like that ... I think the problem was with my MobileMe account, but I'm not sure.
    So I just want a qualified confirmation from someone who actually knows whether or not what I have proposed should work as I expect it to -- that with my SIM card, iTunes and my carrier will just recognize the new phone as if it were my old one -- or whether I'm way off-base in my understanding of how this should work.
    Thank you for any assistance.

    Because the iPhones are both locked to AT & T you would not even need to restore the iPhone just insert the new SIM card in and restart. It will work fine.
    If you want all your data from the smashed iPhone just back it up in iTunes and restore the other phone from that backup, but this is not necessary to just make your SIM work in the other iPhone.
