lord_casek Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 I have a question for you Iphone ATT customers. I've been with ATT for 6 years or so and it's time (again) for an upgrade. I can get an Iphone 3gs for $200 from ATT and turn it over for a profit on ebay for around $700 (jailbroken). I will cancel the data plan after one month as it isn't required to keep the phone, only buy it. Problem is that I have weak service from ATT where I live and I'm considering going with UScellular. Their phones suck, but the signal would be full. My brothers family has UScellular and I've seen my nephews and brothers signals. So, question is: Do I make some money and buy an older Iphone for a couple of hundred or go with the strong signal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stud Kickass Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 Are you sure you can cancel the Data plan? Why not buy it and use it with uscellular? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lord_casek Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 Are you sure you can cancel the Data plan? Why not buy it and use it with uscellular? Yep, it's only required to purchase the Iphone. You can cancel it any time. Uscellular doesn't use simcards. Iphones require them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stud Kickass Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 I don know if it's possible to select on the iPhone. But when I had a blackberry with tmobile they said they have an agreement with other carriers to use their signals. So you could use AT&T and us say uscelluar towers? If that make sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lord_casek Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 ATT and T-mobile have an agreement, UScellular has one with Verizon or Sprint, I think. Something I found on a mac forum: I was getting really terrible 3G service on the iphone. I got the phone on day 1 and paid for the data plan for 2 months. I wanted to get rid of the Data plan as I was not using the data plan on the 3G network but was paying for it. So I took the following steps to get the data plan off the Iphone 1. You'll need another phone besides the iphone. 2. Take the SIM from the IPHONE 3G and put it in the extra phone you have. 3. Call ATT from that extra phone with you Iphone 3g SIM in it. 4. Tell them that you were unhappy with the service and that now since its been more than 30 days You can't return the phone so you sold it to someone but kept your sim card. (They can tell if your calling from Iphone) 5. Now that you don't have the Iphone you would like to take the data plan off. 6. They'll take off the data plan and the visual voice mail since both are built in together. you can still use the other method to retrive your voicemails. 7. Also they asked me for the IMEI of the other phone (phone your calling from) but I decided not to give it to them but telling them that if you take the battery out you'll get disconnected and when they tell you to type somestuff to make it come up on the phone tell them that nothing comes up since we have an active call. SO DO NOT GIVE the IMEI of the phone you are using. (I don't know what that will do but I did not want to give it to them) If anyone does give if please post if you Iphone still works. 8. Also make sure you tell them to block all data to your phone. (Since people want to check out the iphone they usually assume you have data plan and start safari and so you'll get charged pay per use.) 9. Once this is done and the rep confirms that the data plan has been removed and block on data has been put on hang up. 10. Now remove the SIM from the phone you were talking on and put it back in your iphone. P.S the GPS signal still works. Only the Map doesn't show. So if someone ever develops and app with Maps on your iphone then you're good to go. I've been using my phone on wifi everywhere in philly. I'm happy that I have a iphone 3g and I don't have to pay the $30. My buddy did this. He ordered two Iphones for he and his wife, Kept them for a month, canceled data service, sold Iphones on ebay for $1450, bought an HTC Fuze for himself (not sure what he bought his wife), and all is good.

lord_casek Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 So would you have to pay a cancelation fee to AT&T? No, I won't be canceling service, just data. I'll be sticking with ATT. I might even buy an older gen Iphone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YouMad.GIF Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 Us cellular isn't on the GSM network iPhones can only be on the GSM network, which is tmobile, AT&T, alltel, and most other small carriers that use sims Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
