My old plan with nextel is finally over (jumps in excitement). Now I am switching to t-mobile. But before I make the switch I want to get an iphone and unlock so I can use it with tmobile. My question is that if I buy the iphone, can I unlock straight out of the box and start using tmobile with it or do I have to go through the activation with at&t first to activate the phone or w/e is necessary and then switch sims and do t-mobile. Or do like I said b4, right when I take iphone out of box, swtch sim cards, then turn phone on and go through process to unlock it and all that. B/c im thinking if I have to do the at&t way first, that I would have to pay for there plan just to turn the iphone on or something or am I wrong about that? u know wut I mean? also i have the new version of itunes.... I remember hearing that u cant have the latest version or something wont work... or was that just for the ringtones? plz someone let me know. thanks so much
I believe you have to be a member of T-mobile first. So you have a sim card from them. Then buy an Iphone and use the tools from off the internet to unlock the phone. Best bet buy an iphone thats already unlocked from ebay. And then you can swap sim cards and start using it. The only problem that I don't know is... what data plan you have to have for the iphone. Hope this helps
