Ask the provider they will transfer it for you. The iphone doesn't have a sim card so you can't just switch, you will have to call the phone provider. Tech line is your friend.

When I signed up on verizon's website, they asked me if I had a current number. I entered it in on the website, and they did everything automatically. I never even had to talk to anyone.

but do i go into at&t and say.. im selling my iphone and i want the new one and to keep my number or lie and be like... i lost my phone. lol

:iagree:

Actually the iPhone does have a SIM card, Verizon & Sprint phones do not have SIM cards as they run on CDMA.
If you are staying on AT&T the will switch the number no problem, but if you are going to a new provider you will have to take the number, plus a bill with you usually and they can transfer it at the store.

What phone are you switching to?

Just tell them, they don't care. Tmobile has Iphone tech support even though it is exclusive to Att

I'm lost, are you trying to get your insurance to pay for it?

Well I meant not readily accessible

+1

Paper clip in the top hole and it pops out (easier than most phones actually).

nope. i currently have the iphone 3g with AT&T. but someone's buying it. so now im going to get the iphone 3gS and stay with AT&T.

Are you switching providers? if so the provider will have to contact the old provider to release your number to the new provider.

I stand corrected.

Just tell em you sold your phone. I think you think this is harder than it is :)

Easy, just buy your new phone, sell your old phone to whoever. The 3G S will come with a new SIM card, with the 3G iPhone just pop out the SIM card from the top before you give it to whoever is buying it.

Number will transfer when you buy the new phone easily. Also, make sure you sync your 3G iPhone before you buy the new one so you have everything ready to sync when you get the new phone.

lol ok sounds good. thanx :) i probs was thinking it was more complicated. bc im all for selling it but then i was like oh **** how do i get my new one

perfect. thanx guysss!! also. how do i make it back to original settings for the new owner?

the rep in the store can switch it for you.

In iTunes, after you sync it, do a reset and it should wipe the phone and put it all back to default.

There's a wipe option were the network settings are.

ahh perfecto! thank you thank you thank youuuu!

They added that, finally, would have made my life easier from the beginning with iPhones if they just included that.

I was a apple iphone convert bought 1st gen upgraded 3g and found it not amusing anymore went and got a storm much happier at least for work related things that iphone could not do.

i tried the storm. and hated it.. it was sooo slow and blah. iphone has my <3 forev now lol.

where did you guys get all your little pics??

We started a gang. rofl.

lol. you guys would.

well you have to run the unofficial os that's the first thing i learned how to upgrade mind you it's not perfect but the iphone didn't have the futionality of the storm i did like my iphone but work comes first.

Who's Z? Lou's Z!

I discovered a new use for baby wipes, they work better than TP or tissues for nose blowing. I normally end up with little white pieces of tissue/tp on me, but baby wipes hold up and they are soft as hell on the nose.
