Yes. You can use it on any GSM Provider you'd like. This is legal. Also, if you have any issues with the txt messages, picture messages or internet, you can go to Manufacturers webpage and they will text you the settings for free.

Nope as long as the phone is unlocked your in the clear. Remember you might have problems with your messaging or e-mail when using a phone not bought from the service provider, but hey maybe you'll get lucky and not have that problem like i did.

Nope not illegal at all. It's your sim card and you can use it in any phone that is compatible.
