IPhone 4S a mobile operator Verizon Wireless

Good day!
I live in a country of Russia in Moscow. Bought the iPhone 4S hand (not in the store) I was told that it is blocked by the operator Verizon Wireless, I used the Russian services official unlock cellular operator. After unlocking I have a SIM-card of Russian operators. But when I turn the phone, I asked to enter a Billing Zip Code and SSN owner rooms (removed). Contact the owner I have no opportunities. Communicated with the Apple store they said that locks the phone they don't see. Maybe you can help me? Many thanks in advance!

Iphone 4 - locked (mobile operator)

Thank you?

Only the carrier that the phone is currently locked to can authorise an unlock (if they are willing to unlock at all). You will need to speak to them.

That would be a great question for your carrier.

Unlocked iPhone with T-Mobile or Verizon in US

I was given an unlocked iPhone 3G as a gift from a friend outside US. I currently use T-Mobile plan for several family phones in eastern US and have surpassed plan's minimum service term. I also have Verizon FIOS service bundle at home. A simple and inexpensive option is to replace my current T-Mobile phone with the iPhone by using existing SIM card. Is this possible? If so, do I lose any important functionality on iPhone? Is there an advantage to trying to add my wireless phones & iPhone to my Verizon FIOS bundle instead? Or should I just switch all phones to AT&T?

The iPhone is a GSM phone, and Verizon has a CDMA network. Not compatible.
The only other GSM network provider in the U.S. that comes anywhere close to AT&T in terms of the number of subscribers and network coverage nationwide is T-Mobile, but I don't believe T-Mobile's 3G network in the U.S. is compatible with the iPhone, and you won't have visual voicemail access when using a T-Mobile SIM card with an unlocked iPhone as you would with AT&T. The iPhone's visual voicemail feature is one of the best phone features IMO.

Using unlocked iPhone 6 (T-Mobile) on Verizon?

I am attempting to purchase an iPhone for someone as a birthday gift. They have Verizon, and i have AT&T. I have read that if i purchase the unlocked (T-Mobile) version, i would simply insert my simcard into the new iPhone, and all should work correctly? Verizon has told me that the version for the iPhone they sell is A1522, which has both GSM and CDMA bands, so this makes sense. I was also told by a Verizon rep that i would simply need to go into a store and request a simcard, since the gift is for someone who currently uses and iPhone 4, and therefore has no sim card. It doesn't appear Apple is selling off contract iPhone 6s distinctively for Verizon, so i figure this is the next best work around?

Verizon won't activate non-Verizon iPhones even though they have the required CDMA hardware. They have a list of Verizon iPhone serial numbers that the check when activating. There are reports that a non-Verizon iPhone will work on Verizon's network if you insert an active Verizon SIM, but some Apple specific features (e.g. iMessage, FaceTime. Visual VoiceMail) depend on the iPhone serial number, not the SIM, and may not work. It won't help you anyway since the Verizon iPhone 4 has no SIM.

I am not a techy, but I am usually able to describe to the support people the exact conditions under which errors occur. Why this issue that we are both having, as common as it is (do a search and you will see it everywhere), is not common knowledge is beyond me.
To review my situation: If I was hooked to a Wi-Fi connection, I had no problem receiving or sending emails from my Time Warner account. Once I disabled the Wi-Fi switch on iPhone (as if I were out of range, traveling) and tried to send a message with my TW email account, I got the error message that it "could not identify" the server and then the email would go to my outbox.
I think I have found the answer after about an hour on the phone: a call to Time Warner who eventually urged me to call Verizon about outgoing server settings, a call to Verizon who told me that the problem was with TW and their settings, a call again to Time Warner, and finally I received a call from Verizon tech support to make sure I got my answer from Time Warner! The short answer is: Time Warner has an issue/limitation (Perhaps with the 3G network?)
*The second call to TW revealed what Verizon support suspected....YOU NEED TO BE ON A WI-FI TO SEND EMAILS VIA TW. No problem ever receiving--just sending.* I hope this sheds some more light on your situation. Not a major deal for me, (I'll probably use a gmail account), but it is good to know WHY something does not work. All parties were helpful and patient at least.

HT201436 how to send a direct voicemail to an IPHONE from a Galaxy S III on Verizon wireless?

I can not send a direct voicemail using Promt 2 to send a message from my Galaxy SIII to an Iphone 5 or 4. Is there something I can do with my phone or should the iphone recepient do something with their phone so that direct voicemail can be achieved?
Both phones are on Verizon wireless. I tried to research this online. There is no information available at all! I called Verzon Wireless support, they did not know why. CAN ANY ONE HELP ME figure this out?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Alex

Try calling into your voice ail instead of using the Visual Voicemail. You can call in by dialing *86. Then you'll need to listen to the prompts. It used to be possible to send messages to other VZW users that way but I haven't done it in forever.

We have had Verizon Wireless service since 2007. We have 6 lines on our account. Unfortunately in 2012 when I (903.647.0073) upgraded from the iPhone4s to the iPhone 5 I started having reception problems. I started having dropped calls in my home. I had t

We have had Verizon Wireless service since 2007. We have 6 lines on our account. Unfortunately in 2012 when I (903.647.0073) upgraded from the iPhone4s to the iPhone 5 I started having reception problems. I started having dropped calls in my home. I had to go outside to get reception without dropped calls. I was told that because of metal in my home I would have to purchase a Network Extender for $250. And we HAVE not metal in our home. AND our other lines all work fine. I felt this was ridiculous. We already pay $350+/month for service and I should NOT have to purchase additional equipment for a service that I already pay for. The manager of our local store at the time gave us at no cost a Samsung Network Extender. It worked beautifully until about a month ago. I went to our local Verizon store and was told that I would have to purchase an extender. THIS is RIDICULOUS. We have been loyal customers for over 7 years and have been very satisfied with our service. Unless this issue can be resolved without purchasing an extender we will be switching our service as our lines come up for renewal. I regret this as we have been very happy with our service. But we should NOT have to purchase anything extra for one line that will not get good reception. Again, we pay $350+/ month for a service that does not work properly, simply RIDICULOUS! Currently the "sys" light flashes red (slow) and the GPS light remains red. Please help this very frustrated customer.

Regardless with what carrier your with you might have the same issue, My recommendation would be to get a router that will help you with viewing live traffic and keep a tally of your usage and any device connected to your internet connection. You can go with the peplink balance 20 and be able to look at your traffic by the hour, daily, weekly, monthly or yearly. Look for trends, see what computers or devices are doing what I attached a screen shot so you can see an example of mine. You can purchase the router at 3gstore

Hello guys I have a question,or rather a problem. how can I detach yourself iPhone operator Verizon USA? I mean as to call and what to say? I live in Ukraine, and the opportunity came up for to buy cheap 4S 16GB. but on Verizon. when I insert the original SIM card Verizon and I try to activate, says: (error occurred activation, if this problem happen again please call at +1................). this is the hour to use it through the R-SIM 9 pro. everything works нормальнои calls and Internet and SMS, but I want to officially unlock. beforehand thank you

Well, you managed to find this support forum didn't you and you have an internet connection don't you? Then if you have all these things, go and find the number by going to the Verizon website and it should not be hard to find the number.
As for speaking English, this is not really our problem and it is surely something that you should have thought about before buying the phone in the first place.
You also need to know that Verizon in the US is a cdma operator and if you purchased an iPhone 4s, then it should not be locked. The Verizon 4s comes with a sim card tray that should be unlocked out of the box for use internatinoally on gsm networks, so all you should need to do is open the sim card tray and insert a sim card and you should pick up the local gsm network.
A cdma phone does not actually use a sim card, so there would be no original sim card with the phone because when it is used in the US it will pick up the Verizon cdma network without a sim card. The sim card is only for use on a gsm network which will not work in the US, but is designed to work outside the US. Open the sim card tray and insert your own local sim card and the phone should work and should not be locked.
Other than this, if you purchased the phone in the first place, it is the responsibility of the previous owner to cancel the Verizon contract. This is nothing to do with you, so contact the seller and ask them.
Other wise, go to the Verizon website and look up the number and call them. As they are the phone company, ultimately, they are the only ones who can help you.

Very hesitant to do Verizon Wireless iPhone 6 Trade-In Program

On September 28, 2014 I ordered an iPhone 6 for my wife and signed up for the iPhone 6 Trade-In Promotion. My wife's iPhone 4 was "appraised" for $200 online and Verizon mailed the extremely flimsy tiny envelope for my wife to mail her iPhone 4 to Verizon for her "$200" Electronic Gift Card. First of all, the tiny little envelope is so flimsy and contains very little bubble wrap. It offers very little protection and I can easily see the screen breaking during the mailing process when it is such a poor envelope. In addition, there is no tracking information whatsoever on the envelope. If the iPhone 4 gets lost or broken, adios $200. My wife's iPhone 4 is in Excellent Pristine condition but I am very hesitant for my wife to take part in this program because of all of the horror stories I have been reading on the Verizon forums (please see links attached below) or on the internet. People who took part in the program are reporting of lost or broken phones but they were in perfect condtion when they were mailed. Furthermore, there are stories of "Find My Phone" not being turned off even when people have photos of the process. People have even taken photos or videos of the condition of their phone upon mailing to Verizon but this doesn't seem to help.
At this point I am probably going to try to sell my wife's iPhone 4 on eBay because we can't take the risk of getting $20 or less instead of the $200. I am surprised more of these stories haven't gotten to the mainstream press. It would be good if some news station like CBS or NBC would cover the mounting complaints. I am thinking of writing an email to some head honcho at Verizon and venting my concern to tell him why us 20+ year Verizon customers probably won't take part in the program.

This is a photo of the very flimsy envelope that Verizon Wireless provides to ship the iPhone which is being traded in to Verizon. There is very little Bubble Wrap inside this VERY FLIMSY TINY envelope. No wonder iPhones are lost or being delivered broken to Verizon.
I might re-consider taking part in this iPhone Trade-In program if a Verizon Customer Representative monitoring this board reaches out to a manager at my local Verizon Wireless Store in Trumbull, CT and allows me to bring in the iPhone for an immediate $200 credit since my wife has already bought the iPhone 6. With the flimsy envelope which has no tracking I am afraid of the consequences it will bring if I use it. I am not about to spend countless hours with Customer Reps on the phone if I use the envelope and I don't get the $200 credit because the phone gets damaged in the mail or lost by Verizon. This is Verizon's chance to reach out to me so they don't lose me as customer. Let them make the effort to allow me to do this rather than me having to get the run around thru phone calls, being put on hold, and unaswered emails.
I have been a loyal customer for over 20 years. For the last several years my family of 4 has been paying close to $250 per month for Verizon Wireless services. I am going to strongly consider switching to AT&T after our contracts expire. AT&T has a Bring Your Own Device montly plan which would cost us only $160 per month vs. $237 per month we are paying Verizon. This potential $77 per month savings and Verizon's iPhone Trade-In joke of a program is what will push us over the edge to switch.

Verizon wireless iPhone 4 / can receive email cannot send on Road Runner

Help! I just got my new iPhone from Verizon Wireless today and the consultant set up my email for me. I can receive emails from Road Runner, but I cannot send them. I have tried every setting on the Internet that I can find, but none of them work in order for me to receive email. I got this phone so I could send and receive email...I have read that a lot of people who have Road Runner email have the same problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
