As long as they use the same technology. For example, Cingular uses GSM technology (the ones with sim cards) and sprint does not. Therefor, you can not bring a Razor to sprint to be activated. If you have the unlocked phone that takes a sim card and you already have another activated phone with a sim card, just swap the cards out.

No...Not always. Sometimes that would work if your going from Verizon to Sprint or from Cingular to T Mobile. But you can NEVER go from Cingular to Verizon or Verizon to Cingular. Nor van you go Sprint to Cingular or T Mobile. This is because Cingular Uses a older type of network called GSM and so does T Mobile. But Verizon uses a newer network called CDMA and so does sprint.

The international version gained't artwork with LTE or 4G contained in the US. They probable gained't liberate it. Why shold they? no matter if you promise to purchase a settlement. you will get the phone unlocked for form of 20 greenbacks utilizing the web. you'd be better suited off figuring out to purchase the North American version of the phone. it really is going to artwork with 4G and LTE
