my iPhone is going to be cut of by orange as I can't afford the bill, my current phone is direct from an apple shop as I had to have it replaced , can I put another sim in from another network and use my phone on a pay as you go from O2
I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

Dear ,
I buied I phone from USA and I sent to Iraq to use it there but when used it I get this message :
The SIM card that you currently have installed in this iPhone is from a carrier that is not supported under the activation policy that is currently assigned by the activation server. This is not a hardware issue with the iPhone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked by your carrier
so I need support to resolve this problem and procedure and how I can iPhone be unlocked.

Sorry... but... ONLY the US Carrier it is Locked to can unlock it.
You need to Contact them.
Note: No one here will know who that Carrier is. -
My iPhone5 prompts while setting up "This iPhone is not currently setup to work with carrier you are attempting to use.Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier" or "Request that this iPhone be unlocked" How can I unlock my new iPhone5 to function properly?
That means that the phone is locked to a carrier other than the one you are trying to use.
ONLY the carrier it is locked to can authorize unlocking it.
Where exactly did you get this "new" iPhone 5? -
The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported.
This iPhone is not currently setup to work with carrier you're attempting to use. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked.
what does it mean?Have a look in Settings>Carrier
Again YOU cannot unlock it - only the original carrier can do it -

This iPhone is not currently setup to work with carrier you're attempting to use. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked.Sounds like you are trying to use an iPhone that is locked to a particular
wireless carrier with the sim from another wireless carrier. Contact the wireless
provider that the iPhone is locked to and ask if they offer unlocking and if
you qualify. Only the wireless carrier that the iPhone is locked to can unlock
it. -
hi i updated my iphone but it says that This iPhone is not currently setup to work with carrier you're attempting to use. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request that this iPhone be unlocked. how can i unlock this one?
Your iPhone was hacked or jailbroken before and through the update it locks back to the original carrier. Only the original carrier can unlock the iPhone. You have to contact them and find out what the procedure you needs to follow.

In your other post https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5001329?tstart=60
you say the iPhone originally was on contract with Orange UK. You will have
to work with Orange UK to get the iPhone unlocked. -
Can i use my sim card from iphone 3g for a iphone 4?
can i use my sim card from iphone 3g for a iphone 4?
Not as it is, no. The iPhone 4 takes micro-SIMs. It is apparently possible to cut down a standard SIM, but it would be best to just get a new micro-SIM from your cell carrier.

HT1807 Can I use a sim card from Taiwan when I go there in a month on the new iPhone 5
I am just wondering if I buy the new iPhone 5 on pay as you go. Can I use a sim card from a different country. I am off to Taiwan for 6 months in a month and would like to take the iPhone with me
If your phone is officially unlocked, & either of the three authorized carriers, in Taiwan, have nano sims available, yes. Otherwise you'll have to get International Provisioning activated for your account & use the phone while roaming...very expensive.

Can anyone confirm 100% that an iPhone 6 ("contract free" T-mobile version purchased from Apple Store) works with a European SIM card? Has anyone tried it yet? Lots of speculation so far, but no concrete answers yet. Thanks!
Perhaps and perhaps not.
The T-Mobile phone comes with a T-Mobile sim card inserted, so what you need to do is take that sim card out of the phone without activating it and insert the sim card that you want to use in the phone and then activate it. The phone should and might work then, but only on 2g and 3g - due to the frequency differences you won't be able to get 4g/LTE on the phone.
Remember if you do this you won't have warranty cover for the phone either - if you buy in the US, then its only valid for the US and no other country. -
Can I use my SIM card in another phone temporarily?
Question for you all - I'm new to the GSM world having been a long-time Verizon customer prior to my new Iphone. As such, I really don't know much about SIM cards since CDMA doesn't use them.
Can I use my Iphone SIM card in another phone temporarily? There are situations (like this weekend where I'm going skiing) where I'd like to carry a phone but not the iphone, for obvious reasons.
Can I get a cheapy GMS phone on ebay or somewhere else and take the SIM card out of the Iphone and plug it into the cheap phone?
Thanks in advance!The Iphone doesn't have a sim card.
The iPhone most certainly does have a SIM card since it is a GSM phone. Verizon has a CDMA network and CDMA phones do not have a SIM card. I believe Verizon now sells/carries a hybrid phone that is a combination CDMA/GSM phone but other than this, you cannot switch SIM cards with a Verizon phone or with any CDMA phone. -
I need to know any problems I might have getting a SIM card in another country and swapping it w current card in my iPhones (4 and 5).
Need both phone and internet access while there. My carrier has no service (verizon)
Also assume all apps and data on phones will still work?The GSM section of your Verizon iPhone 5 is unlocked and will work with any nano-SIM card.
Not all iPhone features such as FaceTime, iMessage, visual voicemail, etc, may work if using a carrier that doesn't support iPhones. If using an unofficial carrier, you may need to enter APN settings to get cell data. LTE may not be compatable. -
didn't get any proper answer yet
Ah...you need to get a sim card from the carrier your phone is locked to. That's what that message means.

Is it possible to use a sim card from a iphone 4s in a iphone 3gs if so how
I have a sim card that fits inside a iphone 4s but i have a iphone 3gs that i had factory resetted and i would like to activate it so i can use it as an ipod can i put the sim card from the iphone 4s inside of the 3 if so how do i place it in there?
No, it won't work because I think the iPhone 3gs take the full size sim card as far as I can remember and not even a micro sim.
The iPhone 4s has a much smaller sim card, so it just is not going to work.
What you could do is go to your carrier and purchase a Pay As You Go sim card in the correct size to fit a 3gs and put it in to activate the phone to use it as an iPod and then take it out.
