Iphone 4 cdma also supports gsm?

I've been doing research and I've seen online so far that verizons tphone 4 supports both cdma and gsm... If thats true that woul be great because in Japan my carrier is Softbank and states my provider is Verizon. If I could buy an unlocked iphone 4 from Apple it would be 10 times easier when I take leave home to the states. Can anyone confirm this?

it has a GSM/CDMA radio but not a GSM anttenna...I would guess that GSM iPhone 4's now has the same GSM/CDMA chip
Makes me wonder if the receptions the same...

  • I'm in Kenya and apparently, my Iphone 4s doesn't support GSM. how do i go about it?

    i gpt the phone from a Friend in the UK. is have a SIM with it

        Hello guadosky
    We want to make sure that you get the most out of your Verizon iPhone 4s. Let's partner together to ensure that this happens. May I ask do you have an account with us? If so then did you have the device unlocked prior to leaving the US, assuming that you are from the US. Also, what sim card is currently in the iPhone 4s? As you share the details then we can explore options for you.
    Thank you...

  • Does my iphone 4s support GSM service?  I recently upgraded to this smartphone from a AT

    Does my iphone 4s support GSM service?  I recently upgraded to this smartphone from an AT&T Non-smartphone and now I am not able to access data coverage at my cabin upnorth. AT&T says I only have GSM coverage in this location.  Is there something I can do to make my iphone 4s do to pick this service up?

    That model shows as non-CDMA iPhone 4s

    It will support GSM. You will have to work with your carrier to
    get the signal improved. In the past, with AT&T, if you complained
    enough they would provide you with a MiFi device - but that only
    helps if you have an internet connection already in place.
    Your problem may be due to the remote location - particularly if you
    are not in cell phone range due to lack of towers. But the responsibility
    belongs to the AT&T. Is the problem that you can make/get phone
    calls but do not have enough bandwidth for streaming video/audio?
    Or is there no connection whatsoever?

  • HT4526 I have a iPhone 4 (CDMA model) anyway can I change to the (GSM model)because I have a pland with AT&T wireless. What's can I do with the iPhone 4(CDMA model)

    I have iPhone 4(CDMA model)anyway can I uses that iPhone with AT&T wireless plan

    No. A CDMA phone can not be used on a GSM network nor can it be modified to do so.

    These are user-to-user forums, I've asked the hosts to remove your email address from your post.
    Apple and/or iTunes support can't locate it for you, only you can potentially locate it via http://icloud.com on a computer or Find My iPhone / Find My iPad on another device - but that will only work if it's connected to a network and the device hasn't already been wiped and/or Find My iPhone disabled on it.
    If it was stolen then you should report it to the police. You should also change your iTunes account password, your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc.

  • Hello I want to Buy iPhone 5 CDMA and GSM open and I am in Yemen how to do it

    Hello I want to Buy iPhone 5 CDMA and GSM open and I am in Yemen how to do it

    NO it won't work in India because all the iPhones for sale in the USA are carrier locked to networks, so no they won't work outside the USA.
    There will be no unocked iPhones for sale in the US at the moment which is what you need, and anyway, if you purchased one in the US, there is no international warranty so there is nothing you can do.
    You will have to wait because it won't work in India.

  • With the ios 6.1 update, does iphone 4 (a1332) now supports LTE also?

    Hi guys!
       With the new ios 6.1 update, does iphone 4 (a1332) now supports LTE also?
    Thanks guys!

    Software updates cannot add hardware to the device.
    iOS 6.1 adds new features/software fixes, and security fixes. 
    Claiming it is useless is simply uninformed and uneducated.

  • Will the iphone 3G also support Nike+ now that the iphone S does?

    According to the website the new iphone S includes built-in Nike + iPod support. Will the iphone 3G support it now with the new OS 3.0?
    Its really annoying how it works on the nano and touch but not the iphone! very poor form.

    As far as I know, iPhone 3G will not support the nike feature.

  • HT4528 I have an Iphone 4 CDMA. Can you pair it with more than one vehicle through HFL? I have Hondas. Also my new CRV receives texts through the Nav. It says this phone is non-compatible. Is there some software that needs downloaded?

    Can you pair through bluetooth my phone to more than one vehicle? My new Honda CRV receives text messages. However it says my Iphone 4 CDMA is not compatible. Is there software I need to download to my phone?

    If it works anything like Ford Sync, you can pair the same phone to different vehicles, as long as you set up separate Bluetooth profiles on the iPhone for each vehicle.
    As far as Texts go, you won't be able to get them in your vehicle because the iPhone doesn't have the software protocols to do it.  FWIW, I can't get texting from my iPhone 4S in my new Lincoln with Ford Sync either.

  • Iphone 4 cdma: bad experience with verizon customer service/store

    I have been paying around $140 for my shared plan with Verizon. One phone in this line is an iphone4. I am travelling outside the country for the next couple of months and I wanted a solution from Verizon.
    1. Online chat: I asked this question to the chat reps and they told me to go to a store.
    2. Store: At the store I met a folks who did not understand the technical details of a cdma phone. He asked me if I could unlock it and use it. I explained why it is their responsibility to ensure that such a phone is unlocked. He then deferred to the store manager, who kind of seemed nonchalant about the whole situation said that he cannot do anything to help. When I asked what am I supposed to do with this phone after my contract he said that I could do what ever I want with it, he added that I could trade it in for 40 bucks ( while my friends make a couple ah 100 bucks on ebay after selling an unlocked iphone4). He told me to talk to verizon customer support.
    3. Customer support: I dialed in. I asked him a questions about why the company does not offer iphone 4's as a gsm while other service providers do and what value am I getting from paying for a device that I would never use post the contract. He said that verizon was late to provide unlocked phones and they started with the 4s.  I spoke to global support about the rental program that they offer for just 20 days. When I asked if they would make this an exception, they said they cant and the system (made by verizon) will track inventory and will not allow rentals over 20days. The final option was buying another phone for retail price.
    Overall I wanted to express that I am completely disappointed in the way Verizon treats their customer. They talk about policies and how they cannot bend it to meet a customers requirement. I would have been the happiest person if they gave me a replacement phone and  not ask me to buy a new unlocked phone. Why am I paying for a service that does not help me during such situations?
    Thank you
    A sad customer...

    I'm not sure that I understand what your complaint is.  Verizon Wireless does not offer GSM iPhones 4 because Verizon Wireless does not operate a GSM network.

  • I restarted my iPhone 4 CDMA and now it is not turning!!HELP on

    Today i was trying to put my phone into recovery mode i restarted my iPhone 4 CDMA 16gb by pressing home and sleep button together when the apple logo appeared i released the home button i tried this method 3 to 4 times because it was not going into recovery mode and now it is not turning on my battery was 75% i don't know what to do now i tried a lot searching the Google but i found nothing at all none of the method worked for me.
    i also tried this iOS: Not responding or does not turn on but didn't work for me.
    please help it is not responding!

    Hold the home and power buttons down together until the Apple logo appears - be patient, it could take 20-30 seconds - this should do the trick. If not, you should make an appointment at the nearest Genius Bar to have the device evaluated.
