Minimize Hotspot banner on iPhone 4 CDMA model

Hello,
When I am tethering I tend to still use my iPhone for other things, ie. email, games, etc. However, there is a banner with the hotspot status "Personal Hotspot: # Connection(s)" on the upper part of the display and some apps that have buttons on the bottom of the screen are inaccessable due to the screen being shifted down. Is there a way to disable or minimize the hotspot notification banner? I appologize if this discussion is posted elsewhere, I skimmed through the first 4 or 5 pages covering iPhone + Hotspot and found nothing.
Regards,

I'm not exactly sure how I did this, but I think its restoring itself from yesterday.

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

How to pick the iPhone 5 model (CDMA, GSM, ETC...) when buying it unlocked online?

Hello,
I want to buy an unlocked iPhone 5 to be used with Virgin Mobile Canada. VMC uses CDMA network, and as some of you may know, iPhone 5 has 3 different models:
GSM model A1428*: UMTS/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz); LTE (Bands 4 and 17)
CDMA model A1429*: CDMA EV-DO Rev. A and Rev. B (800, 1900, 2100 MHz); UMTS/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz); LTE (Bands 1, 3, 5, 13, 25)
GSM model A1429*: UMTS/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz); LTE (Bands 1, 3, 5)
So the first one, Model A1428 would not work with VMC i guess, right?
That leaves me with the other 2 models. The second one works with CDMA and GSM and LTE, so If i get this model, it should work on CDMA networks (Virgin Mobile) and GSM too (eg. Rogers), right? And LTE would work on both networks, right? (also whats the difference between the LTE bands? like what does it mean?)
So Virgin Mobile itself supplies customers with the A1429 model right (and so does Bell)? While Rogers supplied the A1428 one, right?
Finally, how do i PICK which model to buy? I mean when i go on apple.ca and "Buy iPhone", it doesnt ask to pick a model, so how do i specify which one to buy?
Thank you all (btw, please dont pay attention to my weird username as I once used this forum before and entered the topic in the username field, and it doesnt really give an option to change it in my profile, haha)
Thanks again!

But i actually asked them, and they said that its fine to bring my own iPhone. I'm looking into a prepaid plan (that come with some data), so it shouldnt make a difference, because theyre gonna activate the sim card and ill go from there with top ups (so basically they wont even know what phone i'm using).
So anyway i asked them, and they said its ok. but i then thought of the whole cdma thing

What are the different iPhone 5 model numbers?

What do the different model numbers mean for the iPhone 5? I see some that start with an "A" and some that start with "MD"? Which model is for what?

All iPhone 5 have both an A Model number and a MD Model number. The MD Model number is found in Settings App > General > About > Model.
Here are some examples:
Model A1428 is the iPhone 5 primarily used by GMS networks in USA, Canada, supports LTE bands 4 (AWS) and 17 (700b MHz).
Model A1429 (CDMA model) Sprint and Verizon, Japan under KDDI, supports LTE bands 1 (2100 MHz), 3 (1800 MHz), 5 (850 MHz), 13 (700c MHz), and 25 (1900 MHz).
Model A1429 (GSM model) most GSM carriers overseas, supports LTE bands 1 (2100 MHz), 3 (1800 MHz), and 5 (850 MHz)

Is the iPhone 5 model A1428 usable in India?

Hi,
My cousin in the us has gifted me a iPhone 5 model A1428. I'll be predominantly using it in India. It's supposed to be a company unlocked phone according to the product discription on Amazon. My question is would it be usable in India on a non AT&T carrier provided the gsm band width is 900 -1800 MHz? The phone came with a empty sim tray. The package also didn't have any literature to suggest that it's usable only on AT&T network. The phone is still with my cousin in the US but em need to decide whether he gets it to India in the later weeks of December. If it's not going to be usable here, it's of no point him getting it here.
cheers,
Gautam

Hmmm. I just ran GeekBench here in Sydney and it has identified my A1429 iPhone 5 as a CDMA version. Whatever, it is running fine on LTE on the Telstra network here.
Is this just a glitch in GeekBench or is Apple really using the Verizon A1429 version interchangeably with the GSM-only A1429 as the world-phone?

Do I get full conference call management options on iPhone 6 model A1549 if using it with GSM carriers?

I have iPhone 6 model A1549, bought from and currently using with Verizon. You all must be aware that we can use the same phone for GSM carriers like at&t as well. Now we all know that some of the features related to conference calling are not available on CDMA carriers, like we cant have more than 2 callers, and we can't manage conference calls by making the conversation with one party private for some time and again switching back to conference mode, disconnecting a particular party instead of having to end the entire call etc. reference link- iPhone: Understanding phone features - Apple Support These features are available on GSM models and carriers, I just wanted to ask if I use a GSM SIM from a GSM carrier on this model, do I get these additional conference call management options or I am restricted to Verizon like experience while being on at&t (and while using the at&t SIM in this model)

Yes, I am dealing with this right now on at&t with a 6 plus. I've been down the same road as you. I got it to work with a windows phone yesterday but not my 6 plus when I switched back to the iPhone. My wifes 6 works fine. I believe it is an at&t issue and not an 8.3 issue. After dealing through several levels of support at at&t, they are telling me it has to do with their transition to hd voice. Some people are having this issue because they are updating their system and some peoples phone profile, on phones that have hd voice capabilities, are not getting added to their line and call forwarding will not work without it. I have a trouble ticket open to their engineering dept and they promise it will work for me on or before the 24th of april. Engineering has to build my phones profile so call forwarding will work with my iPhone.
This is frustrating because like you, I need to forward my calls because I have no signal in my office and need to forward to another phone so I can get my calls. If at&t would quit dragging their feet and enable wifi calling, this wouldn't be an issue for me. I would suggest you put more pressure on at&t and escalate this until it gets resolved. Or put your sim in a phone that does not have hd voice capability and see if it works then.
Good luck. I'm keeping my fingers crossed this will be fixed for me on or before the 24th. We'll see.
EDIT: I see you did put it in another phone and it worked. That backs up that the issue is at&t and their hd voice upgrades. They had no explanation as to why some work and some don't, but have them make sure a profile for your phone is on the line. If not, they'll need to build one for the phone so that it''l work. At least that's the story for now. Like I said, I'll know more in a day or two.

HT1937 is cdmasim work in iphone 5 model-no-A1429 please give me the answer ?

is cdmasim work in iphone 5 model- no-A1429 please give me the answer ? i am in india

No. A CDMA iPhone can only be used on the CDMA carrier it was originally sold for. IF the GSM side is unlocked, as in the case of the Verizon iPhone 5, it can be used on any compatible GSM carrier. It can not be used on a different CDMA carrier.

IPhone 5 model A1429, part MD105LL/A/

I am looking at buying a used iPhone 5 model A1429, part MD105LL/A. Trying to find out if this is an original Apple Store unlocked phone that is GSM version?

From the part number, that appears to be a CDMA Cricket model of iPhone. Those are not unlocked and to the best of my knowledge Cricket will not unlock it. I'd therefore suggest avoiding that iPhone. In fact I'd suggest avoiding buying any used iPhone if you're looking for one that's unlocked unless you can buy from someone you know or the seller can provide you proof that it was either sold unlocked originally or was unlocked by the carrier. Most "unlocked" iPhones sold used are actually hacked, not unlocked officially.
Regards.

Hotspot missing from iphone 4S

Has the personal hotspot network been removed from the iPhone 4S model? Cant find it.

I hope you got this resolved by now, but here's how I fixed mine:
Go into Settings, General, Network, Personal Hotspot. Turn it on (or if it is on, turn it off, then back on). Your personal hotspot should now appear in your Settings menu as it did before.
Not sure why this turns itself off sometimes, but at least it is simple to fix.
Cheers!

Personal hotspot on my iphone 5s doesnt work. my laptop can see it and it seems to make initial contact but then it seems to give up and gives a failure message.

Personal hotspot on my iphone 5s operating ios7.1.2 doesnt work. my work laptop can see it and the phone initially registers contact but then it seems to give up and the connection always fails. i have tried resetting settings, switching hotspot on/off, switching 4g on off and nothing seems to work. it worked fine on the same service plan with EE on my old 4s. can anyone help?

Dear brothers
Thanking you so much to be interested about my answer but what I figured out is as long as you bought your iPhone from gulf or Arabian area it will not has face time application cause I think apple has made special software for Arabian areana to privent facetime according to special request by phone cells companies and one of my friends has told me if you want to make sure that your iPhone not for Arabian areana you should check the model number on your iPhone backside if it ends with 29 it means it's for Arabian countries if other numbers it's gonna be for US. Or Hongkong so it's ok
That's all I could know if you have another solution just please let me know
Thanks for all answers

Which iPhone 6 model should I buy to be sure it will work in Europe (Croatia)? Is it A1586?

Which iPhone 6 model should I buy in USA to be sure it will work in Europe (Croatia)? Is it A1586? When I return to Croatia, I'll use it on T-mobile network which has 3G, 4G and LTE band.

Read the post properly and see what he actually said in the post:-
His post actually said "The A1586 is the model sold IN AND FOR CROATIA."
This is not the same as that model being available for sale in the USA and when you go to the US you cannot pick and choose which model you buy. The iPhone is country specific and you will have to purchase the model that is available in the USA.
The USA has CDMA and GSM iPhones, so when you go you would want to purchase the GSM phone and probably the T-Mobile Contract free phone as no unlocked phones are currently for sale in the US.
If you purchase the T-Mobile Contract free phone in the US, then is should work when you return to Croatia, but it will not work on 4G/LTE because of frequency differences in the US. The phone should work okay on 3G, but not 4G or LTE.
Also, remember that if you purchase any phone in the US you will have no warranty cover on your return to Croatia - iPhone warranty is not international and is country specific, so if you have a problem with the phone, you are looking at flying back to the US to get the phone fixed.
The phone will probably work in Croatia, but there is no guarantee of this and it will not work on the 4G LTE that is available there.

Why my iPad 4G GSM-CDMA model cannot recognize my ruim cdma card?

Unable to delete photos from iPhone 5 Model MD655LL/A

My wife needs to free up some space on her iPhone so she can take more photos and videos. She has an iPhone 5 Model MD655LL/A. In General > About the device shows a Capacity of 12.7 GB and Available 1.1 GB. She has 9 videos and 1,488 photos on this phone. She also pays about $4 a month for iCloud storage.
I've connected this device to our Mac and to one of our PCs. We are unable to remove the photos from this phone. Upon selecting a photo from any collection, I can see the trash can icon on the lower right, but it is greyed out.
Now, I've read that Apple makes it impossible to delete the photos that are synced to the iCloud. This makes sense, since the syncing process would add the photo back to your device if it's not detected in the cloud. Our dilemma is this. She needs additional space on her phone. She thought that the iCloud service would provide her with additional space beyond the limitations of her phone where she could store photos without using up her phone's storage space. Based on what I briefly read, it appears that we misunderstood the iCloud storage, at least in this regard.
Here is what I need to be able to do.
1. Back up the photos from her phone to one of our devices. Either the Mac or the PC, it makes no difference to me.
2. Then delete the photos from her phone, but retain them on the device where we backed them up.
I expected to be able to use Windows Explorer on the PC in Windows 7. But upon connecting the phone to the PC, there is no directory to the phone that shows me the image contents. Instead, there is a folder under "Computer" named "iCloud Photos". Selecting that shows a message where I expected to see a listing of contents on the device, which reads "iCloud Photos is not enabled" followed by a link "Open iCloud Control Panel". Selecting that link opens the iCloud dialog, showing iCloud Storage of 182.53 GB of 200 GB available.
Selecting the checkbox next to Photos and choosing the Options button just shows a dialog that lets me choose the iCloud Photos Location on my PC. But I don't see a list of the photos.
3. Where is a dialog that I can use to drag-and-drop in Windows 7 from the phone to a directory using Windows Explorer?
I need detailed, step-by-step instructions for this. Do we just need to cancel the iCloud account? The storage doesn't do us any good if upon deleting a photo from the iCloud the syncing process will delete photos from our computers and our phone. Do we need to configure the iCloud account differently? Also, how can we tell if a photo is locked in the cloud, and thereby permanently affixed to her iPhone.
Thanks for helping us. This has been very frustrating.

The "delete after Import" message will not always appear after the import. It appears, if you are importing from a camera or card, but I do not see it, when I import from a mobile device with iCloud Photo Library enabled and into a System Photo Library, that also uses iCloud Photo Library.
See the Photos Help: https://help.apple.com/photos/mac/1.0/?lang=en#/pht6c803201
If a message asks whether you want to delete or keep the photos on your camera after they’re imported, click Delete Items to remove the photos, or click Keep Items to keep them on the camera.
Unfortunately, this Help text does not state exactly, when it will be possible to delete after import and when not.
