I have a few cell phones that used be with Tmobile, ATT, and Alltel. I've seen ads that say buy a Motorola sim card for unlimited everything $50. If I put that simcard in my Motorola Razor would it work again?

If the handset isn't locked to those three networks i.e. Tmobile, ATT and Alltel, then any sim card will work. Almost all handsets are locked to certain networks and so we can't use sim cards of other networks. You can verify this in only one way. If you have a sim card of another network (in your hand at the moment or you can borrow it from your friend or from other family members), you can insert the sim card, suppose a Verizon sim card, not those three. If the verizon works, then all sim cards should work on your handset.

Since your phone already works with Tmovile, ATT and Alltel, I hope all other network sim cards should work without any problem. Suppose if a phone is locked to network means, it's locked by the Service Operator to preserve their customers so that the customers will return to them if anything happens with the sim card or with the phone, this is a business plan logically designed.

For now, I can't confirm you, but at least if you could try with another sim card of another network (verizon) and it works, the no doubt, all sim cards should definitely work. But if you can't try it that way, I wouldn't recommend you, until you get it tested.
And that Advertisements seems a kind of something, "....unlimited everything...." sounds good, but must be unlimited Incoming Call and could also be without monthly rental fees. I don't recommend unless you ask about it to someone who already used the same sim card ($50). As we know, advertisement is advertisement.

If you need further help, let me know.

Good luck.

Thanks for using FixYa.

Hi, I'm Josef;I have a Motorola Razr cell phone which was originally on a plan with Alltel. I've been told that Verizon bought Alltel, and I'm wondering if sense there is no sim card in the...

If Verizon bought out alltel, the simplest thing to do now is dial 611 for customer care and ask them.
Once a company buys another company, their customer care auto-redirects to the new company. So you can ask them.
I don't have alltel where I'm at (Oregon) so I can't fully answer that.
Thank you

Can I use an AT&T phone with a Tmobile sims card?

I actually work for a cell phone company as a tech....all you have to do is have your ATT phone unlocked! You will need to contact ATT on another phone (not the phone you're trying to unlock!) and let them know that you need an unlock code for your ATT device...they should be able to give you the unlock and instructions to unlock your device...if anything just the unlock code (if you have had previous service or service with ATT)...if they can't give it too you right away on the phone they will have to send off your information to the manufacture and will get you the unlock code within 3-5 buisness days. (if you have had previous service or service with ATT)...I can't stress enough that you must have an account or use to have an account with ATT...they don't do if for free because all carriers are charged everytime they request unlock codes. If they can't get it for you. You can get it unlocked by a 3rd party vendor that will charge a small fee to unlock your device, but make sure your sim card works in it before you leave the vendor to make sure they are legit and actually unlocked it for you! Good luck.

Phone show no service

Call ATT and tell them you need your device unlocked..if it's not reading other sim cards...it's either one of two things...the phone isn't really unlocked or the sim card reader on the phone isn't working (ie: you have a useless phone!) Sorry to be so blunt. :-)

2 Problems..Sim Card Problems

Well, first off, an iPhone won't work at all with a T-Mobile SIM card. American iPhones are locked to AT&T's network -- only AT&T SIM cards will work in them.

As far as activating it with AT&T, make sure that the iPhone isn't connected to the computer while you install iTunes. Once iTunes is installed, connect the iPhone to the computer and iTunes should launch automatically and begin the activation wizard. Just follow the instructions on the screen and answer the questions.
