501 to the 870


Cuz in the City im in Cricket is actually pretty good :cook:

I'm not familiar at all with Cricket and their prices and whatever but I've been on straight talk since it came out and I've been using an iPhone with it for about a year and a half. I pay $45 a month for "unlimited" talk, text and data. I put unlimited in quotes because we all know there's no such thing as unlimited even with a contract. Anyway, I have had nothing but a good experience using my iPhone with straight talk. The only things that are bad are their customer service and that tethering can use enough data for them to suspend your account. Now I haven't had this happen to me but I've read about it on other forums. Also, straight talk uses the AT&T towers where I'm at so I also get great service. I'm completely sold on ST...as long as they are around I will use them instead of being raped by a contract.

Hol up. I just looked this straight talk up and all I have to do is buy a sim and activate it and my AT&T iPhone is good to go?

Got a 4S, first thing I did was JB... Does the JB effect the battery life cause it ain't what I expected?

pretty much. you can also keep your number. only catch is that you have to get out of your contract. i lucked out and i hadn't renewed my contract but i was still using at&t just paying monthly after my contract had already expired so i didn't have to pay any termination fee. set up my ST phone and transferred my old number from at&t and it was working within 2 hours:obama:

215 Uptown!
All right brehs. I need someone to school me!! I worked for both t-mobile and at&t. So i know the mobile game. But im not hip to this iphone shyt brehs.



So we all know this shyt is dropping the 21st(We even got a email saying we can't request off/take vacation days from the 21st-30th)

I still have my t-mobile dealer line account active(25$ a month for 2000 anytime mins,night,weekends,unlimited txt,unlimited data :win:)

Obviously im not leaving this shyt. But this iphone 5 is being hypedup something firece and im buying into the hype!!! I already got the scheme down that im gonna use! My mom got at&T. Im gonna add a line to her account. Cop that iphone 5 at whatever the upgrade price is. Go into my mom account. Switch the new iphone i got back down to a normal ass flip phone that we got lying around in this store so she don't get hit with that data charge. And just pay my moms 10$ a month for the next 2 years!!


Now my only question is. HOW AM I GONNA GET THIS shyt TO WORK ON A T-MOBILE SIM CARD?? SOMEONE HELP A nikka OUT! How long does it usually take for a iphone to get jailbroken? Whats the steps on getting this shyt unlocked?

You dont want to do it the method youre talking about. The best option is buying it unlocked outright from an apple store. If you dont have a apple store near you then youre kinda outta luck until they have the option online to purchase.
