Is unlocked iphone compatible with telus

I currently live in Canada, and I ordered an unlocked iPhone from the Canadian online store. Is it fully compatible with TELUS?  I heard that unlocked devices does not support CDMA carriers. I wonder if this applies to TELUS.Someone please give me a clear answer!

No it won't work.  Any unlocked iPhone that you buy is a GSM unlocked phone and will not support CDMA because they are different.
If you want to use a phone with a CDMA carrier, then you need to purchase the phone from either the Apple store and purchase the TELUS version of the phone or go directly to the TELUS store and buy the phone there, but you can't use an unlocked GSM phone on a CDMA network - the two networks are different and don't use the same technology.

  • Is there a iphone 6 that is unlocked and compatible with the sprint SIM card?

    ok so my Galaxy s4 caught on fire the other day while I was sleeping. And so now instead of getting another galaxy that might do the same thing I'm switching to apple. Now my question is, is there an iphone 6 that is unlocked an compatible with the sprint SIM card. Because my SIM card from the galaxy is still good, but I don't want to go to sprint and get it from them because I'm switching carries in a year.

    Iphone does NOT store to the SIM at all.
    You should be syncing iphone to your computer regularly so all of your contacts should be on your computer in whatever program you have chosen to sync.

    Oh, and if you are abroad for 3 years, you will have no warranty and no Apple service unless the phone is returned to the US.  Sounds like a good reason (to me) to buy it overseas.  YMMV
    This does, of course, depend on what country one is inhabiting.

  • Why not to be unlocked iPhone working with GSM and CDMA/LTE in one device?

    why not to be unlocked iPhone working with GSM and CDMA/LTE in one device?

    I'll explain, does Verizon unlocked iPhone 5s work with CDMA networks (with SIM or without SIM), and if I travlled to another country that provide GSM operators, does the phone will work with GSM SIM normally?

    Sounds like the device was dropped at some point and damaged as a result.
    Take it to Apple for evaluation and a replacement.

  • Is iPhone compatible with GSM in the Meddle East

    Is iPhone compatible with GSM in the Meddle East

    While roaming from a US based At&t account. Almost certainly yes. However the iPhone is carrier locked to At&t and requires a US billing address so unless you have an approved international account, you are going to be roaming amd risk getting your service cancelled.
    Its far better to wait for the iPhone to be sold locally. It is and still will be a GSM phone when that happens.

  • I will studying in the UK for the next year and want to know if an unlocked iPhone 4S with a new sim card purchased in the UK will work as opposed to getting a new phone?

    I will studying in the UK for the next year and want to know if an unlocked iPhone 4S with a new sim card purchased in the UK will work as opposed to getting a new phone?  There seem to be differeing opinions on this.

    Iphone 4s only has one version so it should work world wide in any carrier..As long as it's and unlocked version ofcourse.

  • Does Apple plan to make iTunes / iPad, iPhone compatible with 24 bit FLAC files?

    Does Apple plan to make iTunes / iPad, iPhone compatible with 24 bit FLAC files?

    I wouldn't count on FLAC being supported. 24 bit Apple Lossless (ALAC) is our best bet. I have been patiently waiting for 24/96 or greater support on ipods and especially AppleTV... Desktop iTunes is compatible with hi res files, but not FLAC, you have to convert them to Apple Lossless with Max (or some other converter)... I have several FLAC files from HDTracks, and converted them fairly quickly and easily with Max, so I could add them into iTunes. They play fine on my computer (with an external DAC), and stream fine to AppleTV, but ATV downsamples to 16/44 according to my Receiver. I wish it wouldn't do that....

  • I have a factory unlock iphone 5 with the lasted version. Since yesterday my sim card stopped working and now says `No Sim`, was working fine and stopped working now, other sim works but just not mine. ¿What can be happening?

    I thought that, but I put the sim card in another device that is not Apple and works. Definitely the sim card work, but no longer in my iPhone 5 or maybe in any other Apple device, i dont know why!! But i gonna get a replacement to see what happen

  • I am planning on buying an unlocked iPhone 5 with a T-Mobile Nano Sim. I have a few questions.

    I was planning on buying a 32GB unlocked iPhone 5 with the T-Mobile Nano Sim. I was going to activate the Sim with T-Mobile's prepaid $30 unltd text/data with 100 minutes plan. I've read some stories online where people were only able to use the Sim with T-Mobile's post-paid plans. Will the Sim that comes included work with prepaid and post-paid plans?
    Also, assuming that it does work with prepaid, what steps would I need to go through to activate the iPhone?
    Assuming that it doesn't, would cutting down a prepaid Micro Sim from T-Mobile to Nano Sim size work normally?
    Thank you in advance!

    Yes. The T-Mobile nanoSIM which came with the  full price, unlocked iPhone 5 will work for a prepaid plan. However, neither Apple retail store employees nor the T-Mobile customer svc reps know this. It was quite an ordeal to activate. I had to order the prepaid activation kit online, wait for its arrival by snail mail, then use the activation code from the kit with the nanoSIM to activate the prepaid monthly plan $30/mon for 100 min+ unlim text + 5 GB 4G/LTE. I live in Pasadena, CA, and the 4G and LTE coverage here is extensive and reliable.
    I tossed the SIM which came with the activation kit.
    My local T-Mobile retail store wouldn't sell me a prepaid activation kit when I told them that I wanted the web-only $30/mon plan. The customer svc reps couldn't or wouldn't give me an activation code to use either.

  • I bought an unlocked iphone 5s with full paid but what i got is "SIM Not Valid". Don't know this is because of Apple or Sprint problem?

    I bought an unlocked iphone 5s with full paid but what i got is "SIM Not Valid". Don't know this is because of Apple or Sprint problem? It suppose to be unlocked and allow me to use any carrier worldwide. What is going on? What should i do? Return a phone and get refund?

    If you purchased a Sprint iPhone, you DID NOT purchase an unlocked iPhone. All Sprint iPhones are carrier locked to Sprint, & Sprint will only authorize the unlocking of the sim slot for current customers using the phone on their network. If you are not a current customer, using that phone on Sprint's network, you wasted your money, as Sprint will not authorize the unlocking of the sim slot.
    So, it the above is the case with you, yes, return the phone for a refund, if you still can.

  • Is my iPhone compatible with

    Is my iphone compatible with a handsfree car kits ? I have a pickup truck and would like to know if it's possible i've heard of cars with the kit integrated into the vehicle . My truck is old so I would like to know if anyone has already done this manually do I need to buy an iPod kit or is there somthing already on the market I could buy for this . All replies welcome.

    It should be; the best way to find out is just to try it. I have a Parrot CK3100 in my car (installed aftermarket, obviously) and it works just fine. It should work with most Bluetooth handsfree systems, as it's the only Bluetooth function that the phone supports at the moment.

  • Is the iPhone compatible with the Music Link I have in my 2006 Honda Accord

    I have a 2006 Honda Accord with Music Link so I can play my iPod through the speakers. Is the iPhone compatible with this?

    Welcome to the forums.
    It appears that update 1.1.2 (or perhaps even 1.1.1) "fixed" some issues with the iPhone not working with certain iPod car stereo systems. However, not all seem to be working. As others have suggested, trying it may be the only way to know for sure.
    If you haven't bought it yet and this is one factor then perhaps you could borrow a friend's iPhone to see. However, I wouldn't make this the primary reason to buy an iPhone.

  • I want to buy unlocked iphone 5 with cargo

    Hello,
    I want to buy unlocked iphone 5 with cargo to Turkey, I can pay the cost of the phone with the bank transfer.

    Apple is not reading these forums.
    Go to online store, or visit a local Apple store or authorised Apple reseller.
    Unlock operation can be done later.
