That means you can use the phone on any network. The Tundra (VA76r) was made for AT&T;'s wireless network. Unlocked means someone bought the code from AT&T; and you can use the phone on other nertworks besides heirs.

Cell phones are typically tied to a particular carrier, ATT, Vz, etc. This forces users to subscribe to a plan with that carrier in return for a discount on the price - $199 for an iPhone vs $600, for example. Unlocked means that the phone can be used with any carrier, as long as it is compatible with that carrier's network. On a side note, I've had this phone for 5 years, both of my children teethed on it, and it's still going strong. Its original batter will only hold a charge for a few days vs the initial 2 weeks+, but it's the best phone I've ever owned.

This is my second Tundra. The flip got worn out on the first one after 5 years so I bought another on eBay. The original phone still works so I use it to charge the back-up batteries (the one I bought online for $3.26 plus the one in the original phone) so I'm always charged.

"Unlocked" means that it is not "tied" to any one specific wireless carrier. As long as your carrier supports the network protocols of the device it should work.

Unlocked refers to the practice of "locking" a cell phone, wireless cellular card or other cellular device to a specific carrier. In other words, if a cell phone is locked to AT&T; it will only be usable with an AT&T; sim card. Hope that helps.

No. Factory unlocked means whatever carrier YOU decide to use is accessed via that carrier's SIM card.

An unlocked phone is a phone that is not contracted to a telephone provider like AT&T; or Sprint and so on. Unlocked phones can be hard to find. You have to worry about fraud as well. I purchased an used iPhone 4 for my daughter and it was locked to AT&T.; I bought it from a vendor that sells iPhones and accessories. Hope this helps..

An unlocked phone means that it takes a SIM card, so it can work on GSM networks(like AT&T;), not like the CDMA networks (like Verizon) that DO NOT use SIM cards. It also means that you can use the phone on different networks that use SIM cards, such as Straight Talk or T-Mobile.
