Taking iphone 6s plus from tmobile to Boost mobile

I bought my Iphone 6s Plus from Apple.com. I want to use the phone with Boost Mobile instead of T Mobile. ( The phone has not been activated thru Tmobile yet) What do I have to do to change over. I called both companies and was told two different things. One being I had to return the phone. HELP!

No. Boost Mobile is a CDMA carrier. You will need to buy a phone from Boost Mobile.

A contract-free iPhone 6 Plus from Verizon could be used in Mexico?

Hi, I live in Mexico an I will go to WA an NY next month, I would like to buy the Contract-Free iPhone 6 Plus from Verizon, I have heard that if I buy the iPhone of Verizon it will be unlocked and it could be used in Mexico.
Is this true? What should I ask them to be sure it will work?
Thanks!!

No. Verizon does not sell a contract-free iPhone nor one that is unlocked. T-Mobile sells the iPhone contract-free, but it will be locked to T-Mobile's service for 40 days after purchase. Then they can be asked to unlock it.

Unlocked iphone 6 plus from AT&T

I found on eBay an unlocked iphone 6 plus from AT&T...... is it possible and works internationally ?
Thanks

I saw the phone description. I said wording is all in what they want to say. There is no such term as a factory unlocked phone, as the factory does not unlock phones.
I believe "factory unlocked" generally refers to phones that came unlocked from the factory, i.e. phones that were never locked to any carrier or intended for sale on a specific carrier. To the best of my knowledge, only Apple sells those. While perhaps not an "official" term, it does seem to have come into common usage.

Will setting up a new iPhone 6 Plus from a back up of my iPhone 5 destroy functionality like Touch ID?

Hi Folks.
I have an iPhone 6 Plus on order. My plan when it turns up is to set it up from a backup of my current iPhone 5 running iOS 8.0.2 via iTunes and direct cable link.
Will setting the phone up this way interfere with apps like TouchID that will be present on the new phone but obviously not on my iPhone 5?
Am also concerned over the possibility of overwriting versions of apps specific to and shipped on the 6 Plus with older versions of the same apps in the iTunes backup. Is there some intelligence in the process for setting up a new phone from a backup of your old one that will ensure the latest available and relevant apps are what I'm left with on the 6 Plus at the end of the process?
Thanks in advance for any guidance.

Mike... not sure if you have already received your new 6 Plus however one thing I ran into last night is the 6 Plus came with iOS 8.0.2 and it required iOS 8.1 to restore from back-up. So I had to proceed without restoring to enable me to update the iOS. From reading other post I believe I'll now need to access iCloud backups is to Erase all content and settings, go thru the setup assistant, and when prompted to restore from iCloud backup - choose that option.
Good luck.

Can I bring my iPhone 5s/5c from Tmobile to Verizon?

I am currently with T-mobile and have an iPhone 5s that I purchased through them. My wife has the iPhone 5c. We own both outright (no payments, no contract). I have seen conflicting information on whether or not we can activate these phones with Verizon. If we want to switch to Verizon, can we use our current phones? If so, what steps do we need to take?
We are interested in Verizon, but are not willing to take the several-hundred dollar hit of trading in paid-off phones for new hardware.

Verizon Support,
You need to read the whole thread. The thread was opened when I asked how to change FROM t-mobile TO Verizon. I'm not trying to leave Verizon, I'm trying to join. I have an iPhone 5s that I purchased through t-mobile and I am considering bringing it to Verizon.
Everything I read says that it is the same model of phone (A1533) for Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T. So, I *should* be able to use my current phone on Verizon. However, the first response by Verizon Support above said that my phone 'is not programmed' to work on the Verizon network. If it's a software issue, how do we fix that? Software is, by its very nature, changeable (i.e. soft).
The two deciding factors for me leaving t-mobile and coming to Verizon are whether we can keep our existing, paid-off iPhones, and the pricing of plans when we bring our own devices. Unfortunately, I can't get any real information on how to bring our current iPhones, and I can't access pricing without entering the ID of a phone that Verizon recognizes.
So, Verizon Support, can you direct me to pricing information for plans when we bring our own phones and discuss how to activate our iPhones on the Verizon network?

Restoring from iPhone 5 to iPhone 6 Plus issue

Yesterday, I received my iPhone 6 Plus in the mail via AT&T. Before I started with the new phone, I checked my current phone, iPhone 5, and it showed a iCloud backup from earlier that day.
I chose to use iTunes to backup my iPhone 5 and selected the 'Use Encrypted Backup' option because I wanted it to remember passwords and other things that an iCloud backup would not to make the transition easier.
After I started the backup, it took about 5 minutes to complete and then about 2 or so hours to copy all of the apps off my iPhone to my computer via USB cable. I hadn't used iTunes to backup my iphone since my iPhone 3G with older iOS many years ago. Once the iCloud backup option was there, I used that.
So, once it copied all my apps and I was satisfied that the backup was complete, I turned on the iPhone 6 Plus. Once it got to the spot where it asks if I want to set it up as a new phone or restore from an existing phone, I chose that and told it to restore from an iTunes backup. It prompted me to connect the cable and away it went. It did say that there was an update to 8.0.2, but I chose not to update at the time figuring it may cause issues, so I simply skipped that step planning on updating the iOS after I had my phone restored and ready to go. It started the restore and the phone restarted twice and then came up to the "Welcome" screen to set it up. iTunes said it was going through a sync, which I expected, to copy over all my photos, ringtones, and apps that were backed up. However, the process seemed to stall on Step 6 of 6 "Waiting for changes to be applied." I let it sit about 2.5 hours or so and there was no change in the message nor any indication that it was doing anything. In the iPhone details in iTunes, I could see that it had all my screens set correctly and showed all the apps, but they were grayed out like they weren't there. Indeed, when looking at the phone, it had only the stock apps showing.
I figured something happened with the restore, so I wiped the phone and started over. This time, I let it update to iOS 8.0.2 since my previous iPhone 5 backup was from iOS 8.0.2. Though the same thing happened again where it stalled at Step 6 of 6 "Waiting for changes to be applied." I again let it sit about 1.5 hours with no change at all.
So, for a third time, I wiped the phone and started over. I let it update to 8.0.2 and it did its thing with syncing.. It again seemed to stall at step 6 of 6 "Waiting for changes to be applied." After 30 minutes with no indication of it doing anything, I clicked on the stop sync option. I saw all my phone screens with my app layout correct in iTunes. So, I hit the Sync button. this time, after getting to Step 6 of 6, it showed it was copying over photos from my computer, my ringtones, and then each app to my phone. When the sync was completed, I disconnected the phone and everything looked right. I could connect to my iCloud account.. All my email accounts were set up and I didn't have to enter the password. My iMessages were there. Everything looked good.
The only concern I have is that I never actually got a "Restore Complete" message. I'm guessing its because I technically stopped the initial sync after the restore. Or does it not show that and the restore was actually completed when it rebooted my phone twice and brought up the "Welcome" screen where you set a few of the options like wi-fi, location services, etc. When I go into my iCloud settings in to the backups, there is no message there saying that a restore is in progress. It did show that before when I looked when the previous attempts stalled at Step 6 of 6.
Is this something I should be concerned about or since everything looks to be working properly its good to go?

I am having the same issue! I received my new iPhone 6 plus from atnt yesterday at 10am ... activated it and asked phone to restore from my sprint iPhone5s backup at 10:30 am. It is now 2:17pm the next day and most of the apps that are incomplete are still incomplete right now. What can I do to fix this or do I have to just wait?

Upgrading from iPhone 5 to iPhone 6 Plus after Water Damage

My iPhone 5 fell in water back in October of 2014. I placed the phone in a bag of rice for 3 days
straight when it happened. It dried out fine and worked like nothing happened. Didn't matter I had
to upgrade to the iPhone 6 Plus anyways since it was released around that time. I decided to leave
my last existing backup on my computer (that I did before the phone dropped in water), and not backup
the phone after the water drop. Because the data could potentially be corrupt due to the oxidization of
components inside. Long story short I have the iPhone 6 plus now I got yesterday.
What I need to know:
My iPhone 5 still works but obviously it now doesn't have a working sim card. There are apps I wanted to
take snapshots of, or files I wanted to export from various places from after the water drop happened (which
I never backed up for reasons mentioned above. I already did a backup restore to the new iPhone 6 Plus from
the backup file made prior to the water drop. The iPhone 6 Plus is working flawlessly.
Can I use both phones at the same time with the apps going at the same time? Or will their be a weird
lockout conflict of sorts? Remember one phone has a working sim, but the apps will be the same as the
old phone and I don't want to use both at the same time if it will cause problems.

It won't cause problems to use both. Of course without a sim card in the iPhone 5 it will be just a glorified iPod touch now and will have no access to cellular networks, sms, etc. But it will at least work, and any apps that can run over wifi will continue to work as before.
You might find an app like iExplorer (http://www.macroplant.com) useful for getting any remaining info off your iPhone 5 and onto your new iPhone 6 Plus.

Got a used iphone 6 plus, when i bought a brand new from utc apple store sandiego

I bought a new iphone 6 plus from apple store utc Sandiego. While i was playing with the same i noticed that my call time cellular settings was set to 05:00 hrs in less than a hour i bought it.
So i went to the store and asked them to run a diagnosis test and found that there was call logs even for OCT 6 on my phone, while i got the same phone from the store on OCT 7.
The manger was very rude and asked me to return the phone, if i don't like. He didn't even gave a proper explanation for it.
What shall i do in this case. Is apple doing a big scam

I am not sure, that will help. I went to the same store myself. They don't even care for their customers
Why will it not help? Obviously you have an issue with that store, so make a complaint to Apple Customer Support. Do you wish to fix your situation or just moan here about it?

IPhone 6 Plus unlocked us version from T-Mobile works internationally ?

i am willing to buy an Unlocked iPhone 6 plus from US T-Mobile .. but i travel so much out of US ... so i was asking if iPhone 6 Plus Nnlocked us version from T-Mobile works in all countries all over the world or just in US networks ?
thanx

An unlocked iPhone will work with all carriers, but may not be operational on all frequency bands around the world. For example, there is not a fixed standard for the 4G/LTE bands around the world so you may not have LTE service everywhere.
There are mixed claims about the non-contract T-Mobile iPhone 6...some users are reporting that they had to activate the T-Mobile iPhone using a T-Mobile nano-sim, use it for 40 days on their network, and then get T-Mobile to unlock it. Some others say theirs came unlocked and worked on AT&T out of the box. So, it is anybody's guess as to which is correct.

I want to buy iphone 6 plus 64gb from USA and have to use it in INDIA. So can i purchase it of T-Mobile?

I am from india, and i want to buy an iphone 6 plus from usa and use that in india. so can i buy T-Mobile iphone or not?

You can buy the T-Mobile iPhone 6+, if you'd like, but it won't work in India

Home Sharing issues with iPhone 6 Plus

Hi guys,
I'm having problems with streaming music and video on my iPhone 6 plus from my Macbook Pro (mid 2010 model) using iTunes' Home Sharing . I am able to stream without any issues using my iPhone 4S and my Apple TV, however.
I am using iTunes version 12.0.1.26, iOS 8.1.2, and OSX 10.9.5.
Using my 6 plus, I am able to connect to my iTunes library, both music and video. Album art shows up for music but no cover art for the videos. So, all in all, I am able to see the contents of my library.
However, when I try to play songs, a couple things may happen. First, nothing plays for about 10 seconds; then a second or two of the song plays followed by silence again, appearing as if it's buffering. Second thing that may happen is that a second or two plays immediately followed by silence. If I press next to play the next song, what usually happens is that nothing plays, although the song title does appear.
As seen in this video, I don't have any issues with my WIFI connection or internet speed, as demonstrated using the iPhone 4S and Apple TV.
I have no clue as to why this is happening.
Hopefully someone could shed some light with this issue. Please feel free to comment. I'm open to and appreciate any suggestions while Apple tries to find a solution. Thanks.

UPDATE
So, after working with the guys at Apple, they we were to provide a solution. Now I have no problems using Home Sharing with my iPhone 6 Plus!!!
(I should add that I have the Linksys Advanced Dual-Band N Router (E2500))
The issue was fixed by giving one of the wi-fi channels a different name, thus splitting the channels into 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. Then, I connected my iPhone to one channel (2.4 GHz) and my MacBook Pro to the other channel (5GHz). In this configuration, I have had no issues streaming my music and video.
It seems that the problem is some kind of interference between both devices when using the same channel (i.e., when both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz channel share the same name).
