Does it have a simlock for AT&T only? If you use the pre-paid card of different provider outside US in different country will it work?

The answer is apparently is yes as long as your iPad is set up for the GSM standard which is used by AT&T;, T-Mobile, etc. http://www.apple.com/ipad-air/ultrafast-wireless/

Sorry I can't answer that question. I have the WiFi version because I already have the iPhone but go directly to Apple Support. They are good, fast and knowledgable. I am quite sure they will be helpful.

Yes the phone is unlocked meaning I can use it with any carrier that uses SIM cards. In my case Verizon wireless but I used the phone with att before I got off contract with att as there coverage is terrible in upper Michigan where I primarily use it. I don't know if it works out of country that would be something you need to check with your personal carrier's customer service you have to get out of country plan for the specific country you plan on using it in.

Yes because it's AT&T , it has a sim slot. But if you're gonna go over seas, you need to unlock it first !

HI There,This smartphone is unlocked to work with most GSM providers around the world. I presume it will successfully work with a Sim card from Mexico, if it is GSM. However, it is always best to check with your carrier using the model # (Samsung i317 AT&T;, then unlocked in this case).

yes it is...i believe un-locked is un-locked. i primarily bought this for that feature. there is a Nokia 515 which has a dual slot for SIM but it is not sold in the USA as yet and it too is un-locked. good luck!!!

It should work for other providers. What I was told by the friend I gave it to, is that it's easier with AT&T.; I have to say that it took around a couple weeks to unlock it (in Mexico).

When I put a sim card in my phone, it didn't show it was locked, but it did have a problem with it wanting to use att menu not consumer cellular, is t and t compatible with at and t USA? I found this phone was made for ATT service and you need to find someone with your system at your providers office they sould be able to make it work..

I just experienced the same thing. I got the phone yesterday, plugged in a SIM I already had from England and that worked so I went to AT&T;, got a SIM and put it in. It didn't work but the sim worked in other phones and other sims (eg T Mobile) worked in this phone. Now, a couple of hours later, it's working. Go figure.

Hi, there! I'm quite sure it works with at&t.; Haven't tried that specific carrier since I'm from Slovenia. But the very reason why I bought it is because it is UNLOCKED. That itself means it operates with any carrier. The reason why cells don't work with any carrier is because they are locked under specific code to allow only specific SIM to work with but those are of course cells purchased with a contract and cost 50$ instead of 700$. But that if you ask me is a contract with a devil. With Blu you not only get a fabulous Samsung Galaxy S3 analogue, you get it for 180$ and NO contract!!! Definetely a YES for the purchase if you ask me:). Hi, there! I'm quite sure it works with at&t.; Haven't tried that specific carrier since I'm from Slovenia.

It should work with all mobile services that use sim cards, but some of the service's features could hinge on having their phone. T-Mobile's T-zone or myFaves, for example, would not work on an unlocked phone. Also, some accessories you buy from your service provider may be locked also and will not work. But that only affects the features of the phone, you would still be able to use the phone through your service provider to call people, text, etc.. The only services I know of that wouldn't work are Sprint PCS, Verizon, and Virgin Mobile, because they don't use sim cards. If your phone uses a sim card, go for it.

An "Unlocked" phone can use a SIM card from any provider. The phones you get for a discounted price from providers like AT&T, Sprint etc. are "Locked" so they will not accept a SIM card from any other cellular company. The reason this is done is so you do not take the free phone that the cellular company is providing you at a loss, terminate the contract and use the phone on a competing cellular company. Even after getting the early termination fees from you, the cellular company will still be out of pocket for the cost of the phone. An "Unlocked" phone has no such restrictions. You pay the full price for the phone and use it with any cellular service provider you like.

i think so. I used lycamobile for international calls. But i had to call the At&t custumer services and ask for an unlock code and while i was waiting for the code (which i never got it by the way i just fixed some things on the phone after watching some videos.... That's how the phone started to recognize my sim card.

Since it is an AT&T; phone, you don't need to have it unlocked to use on AT&T; prepay. Just put in a prepay simcard are you are good to go. And, no, the phone is not unlocked in that it can't be used on networks other than AT&T.;

The phone I purchased was "locked to ATT" and it worked just fine on my ATT plan. Locked means it works on one particular carrier, and in the case of the phone I bought that was ATT. HOpe this answers your question.

Hi - I don't think this the phone is unlocked. But for the price it's worth the $20 to get it unlocked. Before you spend the money try customer support at AT&T; and tell them your going to Europe and would they give you the unlock code. With older phone they are inclined to do it for free. Good luck.

In theory you should be able to US Cellular to unlock the phone, either by taking it to a local store or by sending it to them. AT&T; might be able to unlock the phone since it's not under contract. So yes it could be made to work on AT&T; but it won't be compatible right out of the box. I would check with AT&T; and see if they are willing to activate it. It is always up to the company to decide whether to accept an unlocked phone and I'm not sure what AT&T;'s policy is.
