The factory unlocked recently launched from Apple doesn't guarantee a working 3G - Not atleast for T-Mobile, so i think it should be same for India. But if you get it from other sites, it will work without any problems. If you bring a locked phone, airtel/aircel won't do it for you since they won't touch it considering it will be a US phone. You will have to get it done outside. | |

That is not the case with India. In India, the gsm iPhone4 will surely work with 3G bands of all providers, as long its unlocked. P.S: The iPhone4 available from Airtel and Aircel in India are sold unlocked, and can be used with any SIM from any service provider in India, as long as it is (or is cut to) a MicroSIM. If the provider has 3G, you can choose to get a 3G signal as well. | |

My iphone 3GS, use to work fine in India but it was JB/UL from start. From what i have read, Apple's unlocked iphone has too many restrictions in terms of 3G and baseband, its expensive - $600 for 16gb and is available ONLY on Apple's website and not in store. I already had a bad experience ordering from Apple's website, so i would be in 2 minds doing the same again. Also, this means a new iphone is due anytime. | |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() Agreed. I was referring to iphone 5 in USA. That's why Apple started selling unlock iphone 4. Never seen Apple do that. |

Did you buy it off a retailer or an independent dealer? | |

The closest you can get to Swype is an app called ShapeWriter which gives you the Swype interface, then you can copy-paste what you have typed into the email/SMS app... | |

quite a few on cydia. JB is necessary, though. then you can try out which one suits you. Personally i think the native is the easiest. I think youve knocked around enough now, whether to buy it or not. ![]() GO!! do it! | |
