So here is what is up. I had a phone. The phone worked on my carrier. I then put the sim card into an iphone. It doesnt work anymore, even though the sim card is activated and the phone is unlocked.
I called the carrier and they told me that the device wasnt supported on my plan.
So now I have a plan. If I jailbreak the iphone, then use an IMEI changer from Cydia to change my iphone IMEI to match my old phone IMEI, would I be able to use my old sim card? Based on my research the IMEI is how the carrier tells what phone you have, so if I were to change it to match the other broken phone, it should connect to the cell towers.
This should be a fairly simple process, but I dont currently have internet so I can't finish the jailbreak that I started. I will try to get it going in the mean time, but if anyone has any helpful suggestions, I would love to hear them. Thank you!
