Smartphone and Cellphone Wars

Yes iphone. Bakit sayang?

Naka lock kasi sa Smart, so I can use it for other network in case I needed to.

Yun gevey something sim lang Naman ang ginagamit nila eh. First wala ng LTE then pag Meron update hinde na gagana.

Sell your smart locked iPhone then buy open line.

I still don't get it talaga why need to used 2 sim cards from different networks.

Mukhang tanga talaga yun mga nakikita ko na 2-3 phones ang dala.

Naguunlock na ba smart kapag out of contract na? Pagkakaalam ko kasi globe at smart di nag uunlock kahit out of contract na unlike other providers.

Anyway, yung legit way ng unlock sa iphones requires a restore, since maayos naman backup and restore ng IOS, walang mawawala sa data mo.
Pero kung yung mga bypass/workaround type of unlock yan like yung mga super/gevey sim na tinatawag nila, wala din siguro mawawala kasi parang simtray device lang yun eh that tries to trick the phone.

They don't unlock it kahit tapos na contract. I'm thinking if kahit irestore naka lock pa din siya sa network mo.

Nag unlock na globe and smart ng mga out of contract na iPhones. Just call them. Globe nauna matagala while smart last year lang yata nag start.

Wala ng true unlock now unless network mo ang gumawa. Puro mga gevey sim lang ginagamit sa Greenhills.

Kay it's not not really a true unlock

Hindi, i meant kapag yung provider mo offers unlock. They will update information on their end which then updates with apples servers, after mo sila makausap, they will then instruct you to perform a backup and restore. Sa restore process kasi ng IOS, dadaanan yan sa apple servers pa before it completes. So pagkarestore mo, the device will be loaded with an unlock code behind the scenes kasa nung firmware.

Just check, di pa din offered ng globe/smart ang unlocking - Wireless carrier support and features for iPhone in Asia-Pacific - Apple Support

Like shadow said, better sell it then bili ng unlocked variant nalang kesa gamitan mo ng pa nung pangbypass nung lock.

Add ko pa na pag nasa business ka, 2 numbers para matawagan ka ng customer mo. Smart/sun man sya o globe. Shadow doesn't know what he's talking about

Yes Local Networks do unlock old Iphones. Smart unlocked my old IP5S. You do have to comply to the following requirements:


1) Written request from subscriber on record indicating SMART number (signed soft copy)
2) Completion of contract
3) No outstanding balance
4) Specific unit was not reported lost/stolen
5) IMEI should be provided in notepad format

Took them less than a day to process. Once all requirements were met.

Another thing, go through their social media accounts. Thats what i did. I literally had a conversation with them on FB messenger. I tried both, through social media and e-mail. Took them at least two weeks to reply by email.

Not all areas have the same signal reception, that is why having both Globe/TM or Smart/Tnt?Sun sim is useful. Moreover in my experience, yung mga customers nga na uses 1 sim only, they have the option to call ir text you without worrying is ma-check operator sila hehehe.

Not all my customers and employees have dual sim or postpaid plan so they do need the option to contact me at either network. Para tipid on their part.

I don't like 2 phones as well kasi nga parang hassle na, kaya matagal ko na sinsabi na sana mga totl phoen may dual sim version. Finally meron na nga kaya ayus na ayus for me. Dual sim tapos maganda pa specs. Battery endurance have improved na din talaga whether due to hardware or software optimizations/technological advancements.

Si shadow kasi big time lang mga kausap, hehe. Doesn't need to worry about load balance or charges

Ako naman dual sim capable phone ko pero i prefer to use 2 phones. Pag pupunta ako sa alanganing lugar na puro tambay, i use my worth 4k na phone para di ko dala dala mas mahal na phone.

Iba iba talaga ang mga tao kaya wag sasabihin parang tanga

That's probably the only valid reason. Let me be clear mukhang tanga pag maraming dalang cellphones then pag nasa labas nakatpatong-patong sa table.

Siguro yun personal phonrdivert na lang sa work phone yun calls unless puro sms lang mga kausap. Ayaw matawagan.

Different kinds of businesses i assume

Pero marami na rin akong kilala na walang nang landline sa bahay. May landline man sila, naka-sim card na rin. So another sim slot na naman hahaha

if others prefer two cellphones to lug around... it's ok with me. no issue.

You also have the option of just downgrading your plan and maximizing the rebates.

I came from plan 2500, then after my contract, went down to plan 499 (3GB data). I needed more data so upgraded again to 799 (6GB data). When I ran the numbers, it's cheaper to just get a lower plan and buy a phone in cash.

P499 for 3Gig of data..P20 lang ang gastos ko for that much data
