Iphone carriers outside of the us

I am moving to Mexico and I was wondering if there was a specific carrier I needed to sign up with.

At this time, the US iPhone is carrier locked to ATT. It will only work with ATT unless you do something to it that is not allowed to be discussed here.

  • I dropped my iPhone 5 outside in the rain all night and now it only shows the apple logo on my phone , any idea what my best options would be?

    PPlease help me I don't know what my next step should be without having to break the bank

    You should never try to turn on or charge a wet iPhone until it has dried for a week or so.
    If you have tried to turn it on or charge it, then the damage is done.
    You can buy an out of warranty replacement.  I believe it is $249-ish in the U.S

  • Has anyone ever had a problem with your iphone working outside your home but not inside. The internet works fine in and outside of the house

    Has anyone had problems with your iphone working outside of the house, but not inside? Cannot make or receive calls, nor can I send or receive any text messages. This is something that just happened out of nowhere. Can I get some help please?

    Did you used to have service and now suddenly you don't?
    This happened to me a few years back, and several other iPhone users in my neighborhood, and after a while on the phone with AT&T they figured out that a technician had recently adjusted the receiver/sender on the tower and it was slightly off. They sent them back up and I actually had a better signal after than I did before it went out.
    I would call AT&T and explain the issue you are having and see if they can fix it.
    If you never had service there then like wjosten said it's probably just a bad zone.
    Hope you get it sussed out.

  • I bought an iPhone 4 in Miami, but my job made me move outside of the US, now I'm iPhoneless; is there a solution?

    Hi I bought an iPhone 4 under AT&T's contract, 7 months later, my job made me move outside of the US, now I have a locked iPhone in Central America. Although I've watched lately that Apple is selling unlocked iPhone's (which is awesome); now my question is: Is it possible to make my iPhone unlockable on any carrier, if I send you my IMEI or serial number, and actually proving to you my location!? I actually even payed some sort of fine for destroying contract with AT&T ($300)+ the original $230 with taxes for the iPhone+ the monthly fees.
    Come on Apple have a little bit of mercy on clients with my problem, I own every line of your products, less thing you can do, is let me use the iPhone!

    Now that is just a ridiculous statement... why should any company have mercy on you because your job forced you move to a different country? 
    Sell your US iPhone and buy one intended for use in the country in which you currently live.

  • Will an unlocked iPhone 6 bought from the Apple website work in India on Indian carriers?

    Hey,
    I'm thinking of buying an unlocked iPhone 6 from the Apple website. On the website it states that it will work on any of the carriers in the United States. Since it does not mention the possibility of its use in India, I wanted to confirm if it would be usable on an Indian Carrier with all the services enabled.

    It will work provided you are on a supported iPhone carrier. In order to purchase it, you must have a billing and shipping address in the US.
    You may not get 4G/LTE service outside the US.
    You will not get any warranty or post-warranty support for the phone. You must return to the US or send the phone to a friend/relative in the US and have them bring it in.

    how to contact the Dubai technical support for Iphone from outside Dubai

    If you purcased your iPhone from one of the UAE cell carriers, you will need to find the support number for the carrier, Etisalat or DU, from which you purchased the iPhone. If you purchased your iPhone from the online Apple Store in the UAE, you can find their phone number here:

  • Why would Sprint not unlock my iphone 4s even though the usage was way beyond "90 days"- Jan 2012 to Oct 2012, and I am living outside of America?

    I went into contract with Sprint in Jan 2012, and had to terminate my contract with them as I was moving out of the United States. When I spoke to customer service, they asked me "the reason for my termination" and I specifically told them that i was moving out of the country. They basically asked me turn in the phone to Sprint or pay $300 early termination fee. I paid them $300 so i could keep the phone. BUT, not even my international SIM card works on the phone because Sprint won't take the carrier lock off. Instead in Nov 2012 they sent me some random tax bill of $35, which the customer service hadn't bothered to tell me about.
    When I went on their support site again, this is the what I found: https://community.sprint.com/baw/message/705416
    I reached out to the again today and i am waiting for their response, but their customer service agents are SNOBS and probably going to respond with "we can't" and "we won't".
    Now, I have an iphone 4s that is fully paid for, I don't live in America, and yet i can't use. It's nothing more than an expensive paper weight.
    What should I do?

    Only Sprint can answer your questions. Unlocking is up to the carrier to which the phone is locked.

  • I just bought an iphone 4s from someone off of Craigslist and I am using my consumer cellular sim but it's saying I need to contact the carrier to unlock the phone?

    I bought an iphone 4s from someone off of craigslist. I went to update to ios7 (it was running ios5 for some reason) and when it finally updated it said the phone needed to be unlocked by the carrier. I don't know who the original carrier of the phone is or what to do about it.
    I'm using Consumer Cellular and it my sim was working perfectly in my Iphone 4 for 7 months.
    Did I totally get screwed out of $90?
    I think the phone was jailbroken but I'm not sure.

    Only the carrier to whom the device is locked can authorize it's unlocking.
    Consumer Cellular is not a supported carrier.
    Jailbreaking voids all rights to support from Apple and these user to user support forums.

    Sounds like the iPhone is locked to the original Carrier
    and you are trying to use  a sim from another carrier
    and only that original  carrier can unlock the iPhone

  • When is the next update for iphone carrier setting?I cant change my carrier to 2g!!!There is only 3g or LTE available for me.

    when is the next update for iphone carrier setting?I cant change my carrier to 2g!!!There is only 3g or LTE available for me.

    Carrier Settings are dependent entirely on your carrier.  2G is old outdated and slow etc, most carriers are phasing out their 2G service. You would need to ask your carrier when they plan on releasing a new update.
    Why on earth do you want to set your iPhone to 2G?  It will automatically switch to 2G if 3G is not available, and 2G is found.

    I got the same message.
    I bought an iPhone 5 at full retail price from an AT&T store. I requested the phone to be unlocked through their unlock portal. The AT&T unlock system asked for the IMEI number, a copy of my receipt showing that I bougth the phone at "No Commitment" price. A few hours later I received a message from AT&T stating that the unlock request was approved. I then followed the instructions to back up the phone and restore it through Itunes. The phone activates normally with the AT&T SIM card. But when I insert my VODAFONE SIM I get the massage "THE SIM CARD... etc.
    I tried again to back up & restore the phone 3 or 4 times, no success. I have also allowed 24 hours for the unlock process to complete. Still no luck.
    I have checked again on the AT&T Unlock Status portal and it shows "Unlock approved".
    Where is the issue here? Do I have to call Apple or return the phone to AT&T and get the unlocked phone through the Apple Store?
    Thanks for any help on this.

    It appears that you have an iPhone that is locked to a carrier other than the one you were using. Now that you have tried to update the iOS, it has relocked. That is what happens if you are using a phone that has been hacked to unlock. You have also forfeited support from Apple and from this forum.
