Service Provider Change

I am in the military and I am currently stationed in Japan. Would I be able to buy an Iphone in here in Japan using Softbank, then move to the United States and use the same Iphone but switch the service provider to AT&T?

I believe the iPhone is sold in Japan as carrier locked with Softbank only and if so, the answer is no.
I haven't read any reports about AT&T unlocking an iPhone under any circumstances, and the same likely applies with Softbank.
Apple's warranty for the iPhone is honored in the country where the iPhone was sold new only. If you purchase an iPhone in Japan and Softbank is willing to unlock your iPhone when canceling your Softbank contract or account and you return to the U.S. with the iPhone, if the iPhone remains under warranty at that time and develops a problem that would be covered under the warranty, Apple wouldn't exchange the iPhone here. You would need to return to Japan, or ship the iPhone to someone who know in Japan to handle the exchange under warranty.
If you purchase an iPhone in Japan, best to sell your iPhone to someone in Japan when returning to the U.S. and use the proceeds to purchase a new iPhone in the U.S.

HT4623 I was given an iphone 4 (unlocked) in the UK, but despite my service provider changing the sim it will not connect to the network here in Australia. Any ideas on what the problem is?

I was given an iphone 4 (unlocked) in the UK, but despite my service provider changing the sim I'm still getting no service. Is ther something else that could be locked to a UK network on the phone? Cheers, Ray.

Expanding on what Tim said to make sure it's clear, only the carrier to which the iPhone is locked can authorize unlocking. If Optus is the original carrier, as would seem to be the case, O2 would not be able to unlock it. Only Optus can authorize the unlock, so you'll need to contact them. They say, though, that only the account holder can apply for unlocking, so you might not be able to get it unlocked and will have to work through the person from whom you bought the iPhone.
For more information, see the Optus FAQ on unlocking.

Xperia Z suddenly cannot find service provider

Had my Xperia Z since May, had a few problems with it but seemed to fixed it self after a while, and has been working perfectly for the past 4 months. Today when I woke up, it suddenly would not connect to my usual service provider, changed my sim card to a samsung, and it was working perfectly. Refusing to give up I put back my sim card and tried to go around the area where I usually get strong signal from my service provider, and I found out that I could still get on my service provider's network but with horrible signal.(ie. places where I usually get a full bar from my service provider, I now either get 1 bar, no bars or no signal at all!, everywhere else I dont get any signal at all) I have contacted my service provider (in my case GLOBE telecom, philippines) and they said there was no problem on their end. HELP! Edit: Have tried sim card of other service providers and same result... no signal Model number :c6603Android Version :4.2.2Build number: 10.3.1.A.2.67

In that case I suggest that you try to reinstall the phone software using SUS.

If you still can't get a similar signal compared with the other phone you should contact your local support team, to have the phone examined and fixed at an repair center.

IS-U-IDE Multiple Datex Exchange Format per Service Provider

Hi,
Can anyway one tell me if it's possible to assign a Datex Exchange Format (DEF), to a Service Provider(SP) on the same date?
The propose is to receive more that one Message version, from the same SP.
Thank in advance,
KR,
AAL!

Hi,
You can change the datex format for the service provider...
For this, Go to the service provider change transaction or in Area menu->Tools>IDE->service providers...
Select the service provider and click on change...
There is a tab for Format, You can assign the datex format that is desired for the service provider...
At a time slice, you can assign only one datex format for the service provider...
Reward if useful

Trying to publsh changes to my website. I get a message "There was an error communicating with the FTP server. Try again later, or check with your service provider." I did, and all my settings are correct, but still cannot publish

Any other ideas?

Most likely you are suffering from a bug in iWeb that doesn't let you publish websites if an image you have added to your site begins with space. You can either search for that image and remove it.

Can we buy iphone from one country and then change the service provider

Hi,
I wanted to know if I buy an iphone from india today can I change the service provider when i come to U.S.A. for my studies in Jan

It seems to depend on the country where you bought your phone.
In Australia, with a post-paid account I can have my carrier unlock the phone for free so I can use the phone on a pre-paid account in the States when I am there.
My carrier here gets paid regardless as I am on a 24-month contract.

Itunes is prompting me for an upgrade, I click it and it wants to open AOL, I don't want it to use that service provider, How do I change that?

Hi I have an older version of iTunes and when I open it, the program prompts me to download iTunes 10. I click on the down load button on screen and it launches AOL. I don't have an AOL account. I did years ago. How do I change what service provider it looks for?

Just go to iTunes.com and download the latest version.

I received an iPhone 6 in the mail from my previous service provider but I already changed to a different provider and got an iPhone 6 thinking I wouldn't receive the phone in the mail. Should I mail it back?

I received an iPhone 6 in the mail from my previous service provider but I already changed to a different provider and got an iPhone 6 in the meantime because my iPhone 5 stopped working and I was desperate thinking I wouldn't receive the phone in the mail. Should I mail it back or sell it?

You aren't serious are you? Send it back. It is not yours, you do not own it, therefore selling it would constitute selling stolen goods. You would be committing a crime, and you would be screwing whomever you sold it to.

I recently changed my internet service provider and my e mail address. I updated my iTunes account with the new e mail. Now I cannot get updates on my devices, because the login box on each still contains my old e mail. How can I change this please?

Try tapping on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Stores on your devices (Settings > Store if they aren't on iOS 6+) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on them.

HT204053 I have iPad 2 and recently changed my Internet Service Provider and email address. I have created a new Apple I.D. and password but when I try to access or open my iPad 2 I am asked for the password for my previous email address.

I have iPad 2 and recently changed my Internet Service Provider and email address. When I switch on the iPad I am asked for my password for
my previous providerwhich when entered is not acceptable. I am told to create a new passord but this only changes the password for my current
address. I am now unable to access iPad and I need to know how to circumvent this.

Roger, thank you. I wish I had sent out this question a month ago, when I committed the folly of creating another apple id with my alternate email address. Since then, I had realized that I didn't seem to need it, hence today's post.
So now what do I do? Is there anyway to delete that unecessary apple id?
And it is even worse than that...the secondary address listed currently in our apple id is a mobile me one that my husband created, but never uses, never checks, and probably doesn't even remember the password for.

Service provider Software change

Hello everyone, my first post on the forum.
I have an 8520 Curve, OS version V5.0.0681 (platform 5.2.0.67). Is it possible to change the Service provider software, say from O2 UK to Vodafone UK?
Its just that I want to give the phone as a gift and it would be great if it was branded with the appropriate software.
Obviously unlocking is not a problem.
I have downloaded the Vodafone UK software from the BB site, but I just don't know how to do it, or even if its possible.
Any help would be much appreciated,........Thanks !
Solved!

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
From a PC, you can install any compatible (e.g., for your exact BB Model Number) OS package to a BB via this procedure:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Device-Software/How-To-Reload-Your-Operating-Syste...
Note that while written for "reload" and the Storm, it can be used to upgrade, downgrade, or reload any BB device model -- it all depends on the OS package you download and install to your PC. You can even use a different carriers OS package by simply inserting, between steps 1 and 2, the deletion, on your PC, of a file named VENDOR.XML. Be sure that you remove, from your PC, any other BB device OS packages as having more than one installed to the PC can cause conflicts with this procedure.
If you are on MAC, you are limited to only your carriers sanctioned OS packages...but can still use any levels that they currently sanction. See this procedure:
KB19915How to perform a clean reload of BlackBerry smartphone application software using BlackBerry Desktop Software
However...

If your intent is that, upon reboot, the splash screen change to a different carrier, that will never change. That splash screen is deeper into the device than is the OS, so it will never change.
Further, you should read this:
KB05099 Steps to take before selling or after buying a previously owned BlackBerry smartphone
And conduct the "seller" steps completely.
Lastly, getting a BB to work on a network where the carrier does not directly support that exact model can be quite challenging indeed. I do not know if this applies in your case, but just be ready for challenges should it not function as hoped for upon receipt.
Good luck!
