IPhone contract expired, want to switch providers, now what??

My 1st generation iPhone contract has expired. What process do I take in order to change providers, yet maintain the ability to upgrade software, without unlocking, jailbrakeing the iPhone?

It isn't possible for your two year contract with AT&T for the first generation iPhone to have expired. The first generation iPhone was released on 6/29/07. If you purchased your first generation iPhone on the release date, your two year contract won't expire until 6/29 this year.
Doubtful that AT&T will unlock your iPhone regardless, but if they do, 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 national coverage is T-Mobile.

It really doesn't matter. ANY earphones work with your iPhone. If you realy want to buy Apple, buy whatever they are currently selling. Earphones are technically standard across the world.

1. The IMEI is automatically erased. Why shouldn't I show the IMEI? I am new to the iphones.
Because millions of people read these forums, and not all of them are honest. Knowing personal information like IMEI puts you at risk of identity theft or phone spoofing. It was not erased automatically, it was removed by a forum host who noticed it (probably with the help of a high point forum member).

I replaced the screen on my iPhone 5s and the screen went blue and red then it doesn't want to turn on now what should I do? I'm thinking of buying a new battery to see if that's the problem and if I get another screen I might just reset my iPhone am

Like I said I think it's the battery but I have to chech if it's the battery or the screen but please help I want my iPhone back.. And I hate using Android.

The iPhone does not have user serviceable parts. There is no where to buy genuine Apple parts, and once you open the phone, you forfeit any warranty or post-warranty support, as well as help from the forum. Try Google.

I want to switch from an android to an iPhone but wondered if anyone knows if there is a swipe option for iPhone?, I want to switch from an android to an iPhone but wondered if anyone knows if there is a swipe option for iPhone?

I would like to switch to an iphone from an android. Wondered if anyone knew if apple has a swype app for iphone. This is the only thing that I love about my android

Snozdop is absolutely right, but after years of using iOS devices, I finally began using Keyboard Shortcuts. I don't know why I never did it before, especially considering I use Textexpander on my Mac.
This is an older tutorial, but it pretty much works the same on iOS 7 today.

Wanting to switch providers

I'm looking at switching to at&t from Verizon. Looking for some information on how to go about that.

go to a corporate AT&T store with your current account information. They will port your number and set up your account.

10.5.8 with itunes 10.6.3 (25) and a new iphone 4s requiring itunes 11.2.2 now what ?

I mac ver. 10.5.8 with 4gb memory 667mhz DDR2 SDram
with Itunes ver. 10.6.3
my previous iphone 4s had the old ver. software i did not ever upgrade to ios 7
My new iphone is ios7 . I plugged my phone in to my Imac and it would not recognize it and then told me i need ver. 11.2.2 for this phone ! I checked for software upgrades and found I need OSX 10.6.8 or newer to install 11.2.2 !?
How do I use my Apple product on my Apple product ?????
Do I have to buy a new OS from Apple ? looks like it . Will all my stuff be lost doing so . I have never backed up my I mac and have no idea how to !
All this so I can use my phone . WOW !

1. Yes, you need to buy a new OS. Mac OS X 10.6 requires a Mac with an Intel CPU and at least 1GB of RAM.
2. It won't erase your files unless a problem occurs. Back up everything anyway; this can be done with Time Machine or by creating a bootable clone, and requires an external drive.

I purchased my iphone4 from Apple and want to switch carriers do I need to unlock my phone

My husband purchased my phone at Apple Store, we then assigned At&t as our carrier. I am no longer under contract and want to switch carriers. I am told I must unlock my phone, but I am not sure if I have to since we bought the phone at full price from Apple. If I do have to unlock my phone first how would I do that?

Contact AT&T for unlocking details.

Check under general app-general-about then look under carrier and see what network it has set on it because some networks I know unlock their phones but to my knowledge iPhones the majority bought through carriers are usually locked.

HT1296 i have been syncing my iphone with my work computer but now I want to switch to my laptop. how?

I have been syncing my iphone to my work PC and now I want to switch to my laptop for syncing. How?

An iPhone can only sync with one library at a time. If you do not wish to have your present iTunes library on the home computer replace the one on the phone you will need to put the content of the work library on the home computer so it is still syncing with the same library
iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music [library] to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 - a somewhat bewildering and not always easily understandable set of options.
Quick answer if you use iTunes' default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Open iTunes and immediately hold down the Option (alt) key (shift on Windows), then guide it to the new location of the iTunes Library.itl file in the moved iTunes folder.
