Can you use an Iphone for just phone and texting with a prepaid plan?

Q. Have an ATT Iphone 3, want to use just as a phone and texting only, not for the Iphone data features. Is this possible.
Already have the phone, want to switch over to ATT, but not wanting the contract yet. Was hoping to use this, and not buy a phone when I make the switch.

A. I'm not sure as I don't live in the US. However, over here in Australia, you can go on a prepaid plan with an iPhone. From what I heard, AT&T doesn't provide prepaid services to iPhone.

How do I know if my Iphone is unlocked?
Q. A while back I found an ATT iPhone 4 and recently decided to jailbreak it. I want to use my iPhone 4 on T-mobile,so how do I know if its unlocked?

A. If you have recently jailbroken this phone, odds are that it needs to be unlocked as well.

Beg/borrow/steal a T-Mobile SIM card that has already been cut down to the right size and insert it. If the phone is unlocked, the top left corner will read "T-Mobile" (active SIM card) or "No Service" (inactive SIM card). If you just get a blank with empty signal bars, then the phone is likely not yet unlocked.

Can I use Verizon Sim Card in ATT iPhone?
Q. I have an att iphone 4 ios 6.01, but my carrier is verizon. I have a sim card for my old Verizon phone but someone told me that it is a LTE sim card and that it is different and won't work even if i unlock or jail break the iphone. Is this true?

A. Yes it's true, it won't work. AT&T and Verizon use two totally different technologies.
