    iPhone 5 or earlier Does the iPhone 5C call over 4G or 3G

    I have an iPhone 5C that I wanted to try to use for one week. But when I tried to use my SIM card in it, it did not work. I am wondering if the 5C calls over 3G or 4G. I know that the 3G network has been shut down on some carriers (including mine), so it would make sense if it calls over 3G.

    iPhone 5 or earlier iPhone 5c recently No Service

    About a week ago, grandfather's iPhone 5c recently started showing 'No Service' with ATT. Nothing account wise/billing has changed. No iOS upgrades of any sort. We've restarted the phone several times, DFU'd, and reset network settings. Occasionally, the phone will temporarily get service...

    IPhone 5c screen blurred

    I got a phone call from a friend and after the first ring, the screen completely blurred and went unresponsive. It still rings and vibrates from calls and being plugged in to charge, but won't respond to touch at all other than pressing the power button. Won't restart or shutdown, and if I press...

    Trying Not To Delete Things Accidentally

    I have a MacBook Air, an iPhone 5C and an iPhone 8. My MacBook Air and the iPhone 5C were synched and both connected to iCloud so that some data (not sure what all) would be saved on both. Purchased a new iPhone 8, and now have it synched with the MacBook Air, so that it saves stuff, too. I...

    Not Getting Alerts for Texts and Others

    Have an iPhone 5C, and for the last month or more I have not been receiving audio alerts for text messages and some phone calls. Have checked settings (correctly, I hope) and turned the phone off then back on. Nothing has helped so far. Not sure if this is a sign of the phone's age or just...

    iOS 11 and the iPhone 5C

    I have an iPhone 5C and I know that iOS 11 is not suppose to be compatible. However, can I expect iOS 11 to pop up as an update on my 5c? If it does, I will elect not to install it, however, I think at least once an update I didn't want decided to install itself. If iOS 11 does that on my...

    My phone wasn't working well, so I restored it. Now, most apps are not working. They repeatedly ask for a password, and when the correct one is entered, it says that it is incorrect. Also, for the email account - I am sure of the password, but it keeps rejecting it. Many Apps now saying they...

    Have a MacBook Air running El Capitan and an iPhone 5C running 10.2.1. Have had some notes in Notes on my iPhone for quite awhile, and thought that they would automatically synch on to the MacBook Air. Discovered tonight that they have not. So I called the Apple Rep to find out how to do...

    How to Unlock iPhone 5c?

    I have an iPhone 5c that I just replaced with another non-iphone. I forgot to call AT&T and have it unlocked before upgrading phones. Can I still call AT&T and have it unlocked? Or do I have to do it another way? It is definitely out of contract.
