Will a T-Mobile SIM card work in my iPhone? They are both GSM/EDGE.

Will a T-Mobile SIM card work in my iPhone? They are both GSM/EDGE.

Out of the box, the GSM version of the Apple iPhone (up to the iPhone 4) and the iPhone 4S will only work on Apple approved GSM providers (i.e. AT&T).

T-Mobile SIM cards can be used in an iPhone that has been jailbroken and unlocked via third party software. There are a variety of commercial and non-commercial software options available which unlock the iPhone.

Though unlocking has become very common for users that do not want to be tied to a particular carrier or bound by a contract, users should understand that unlocking is performed 'at your own risk'.

the iPhone will NOT hold a SIM-card !! Remark the device :there is NO way to open it. Source from inside Apple confirmed me that the identity normaly stored on the SIM, will be put into the device by the provider. This is one if not the major reasons why Apple is starting in the US only with Cingular and not the other providers. Plans for Europe are indicating same direction : minimum number of providers (Vodaphone and Orange being one of them)

Actually, IT DOES! Being an iPhone owner/att wireless subscriber, I know, for a fact, that you CAN remove the SIM from the top of the phone. There is a little pin hole you push with a pin and the tray slides out and it holds the SIM... I've taken my sim out and put it back in the other day in an effort to restart the phone... so, arent we happy that this issue has been laid to rest? :) thank you, goodday.

so can i put a 02 sim card in a iphone or not

Hello, I strongly recommend any iphone user to switch their service now to WOW Mobile; utilizes T-Mobile Service but WOW's applications via our SIM Cards. The advantage is (unlike any other), FREE Cell Service(Nationwide) for EVER after you refer 3 others to our WOW Mobile. To get started, call us directly at 847-845-9758 (FONEWOW.COM).

Yes

the sim card needs to be cut down to fit iphone. i just had it done. take it ti an authorizrd tmobile store and get a new sim and they will cut it for younon. nernwel

Firstnyou have tocmake sure its by at&t because they work with sim cards then you can unlock it and get a sim called gevey which will make t-mobile work with the iphone but don't recomend it because you can't update it after a while or gevey has found a way to by pass the update!

U should b able to insert it SIM card and as long as u have
Service on it then it should work with no problems

but since u can take out the sim card
r u able 2 put a t mobile sim card in there?
thts my question 4 u since u know 4 a FACT tht u can take out the sim card

you must not have an iphone huh?.
duh, there is a small hole at the top of the fone and inside the box that the iphone came in has the little pen thingy where you can open the sim card slot.
me and all my friends have an iphone so this is an FACT \. no idk if you can just randomly put an tmobile sim inside of the iphone. i think you have to go to the tmobile store and have that don becuz my dad did that and now he has tmobile service on his iphone

hey bro, I am trying to get an iphone 3gs on simplemobile, do you get 3G where available or does it only work on edge? Thanks! emaile me please dx7alex@aol.com

you can but you need to unlock the phone and get a PROFESSIONAL I REPEAT PROFESSINAL hacker to cut up the sim card without cutting the little metal parts and fit the sim card into the ttray and it should work GLAD I HELPED

You don't need a professional I did this at home on my first try. Just watch the youtube video that shows you how it is very simple.

actually....i put my t-mobile sim card in an att iphone and it has all the old info still on it and none of my contacts, messages, pictures or anything load. so i don't know if you're 100% accurate just by pulling out your sim card.
