Having Apple iPhone In Canada With Rogers And Fido
Using An Apple iPhone in Canada
A lot of people have come up to me and asked the question, "Where did you buy your iPhone in Canada?" My answer to that question is, "I didn't buy my iPhone in Canada! I bought it from Seattle, WA, and unlocked the iPhone myself!? You heard me right folks. iPhones in Canada have been purchased majority of them by Canucks who went down to the States to purchase them. They pay someone to unlock it for them or unlocked the iPhone in Canada themselves after they purchase it.
What Mobile Networks Work With An iPhone in Canada?
GSM networks available in Canada are only two. Rogers is one network. Fido is another network which is owned by Rogers.. In Canada, these are the two networks you can use your iPhone with. Your iPhone in Canada, when you hook it up won't be difficult process. You need to have an iPhone first thing.Before inserting your Rogers or Fido SIM card, you have to "jailbreak" (iTunes activation has been bypassed) and "unlocked" (opened to be used with any GSM network; ie--Fido, Rogers, etc.), and just pop the SIM card tray out of the top of the iPhone with a paperclip to insert the SIM card. You now are ready to turn your phone back on and poof! You now have an iPhone in Canada and it?s working. In Canada though, iPhone firmware 1.1.2 cannot be software unlocked at the moment since they are new. Use a TurboSIM method, which requires a slight modification of your SIM card which then fits into a "tray" that slides into your iPhone to unlock these iPhones. Your iPhone is being tricked with this "tray" allowing it to be used with any GSM network in Canada (or the world!) What Features Work on the iPhone in Canada?
Whether your iPhone in Canada has been "jailbreak" and "unlocked", every single feature still works. The feature "Visual Voice mail? is only available to AT&T subscribers in the USA so this is the only feature that does not work. Your iPhone in Canada still has features that work there like YouTube, WiFi, EDGE, Camera, Weather, Stocks, iPod, Calculator, Mail, Google Maps, and SMS. With Rogers or Fido your SMS voice mail notifications may not work since it would greatly depend on what firmware is running. A 3rd party application that will allow for the iPhone receiving SMS voice mail notification can be installed by users with a firmware version 1.1.1. Also available are 3rd party applications to send MMS messages, install games, and other fun programs! There are endless possibilities!
