The deal with iPhones is that they are GSM and Verizon uses CDMA. So iPhones are incapable of working on Verizon's network at all. The only other carrier that you can use in the US with a unlocked iPhone is T-Mobile because they use the same radio frequency.

That's just what they want you to think.

Verizon has a duplicate GSM code substitute, that supercedes T-Mobile's frequency.

This enables you to over-ride the CDMA. Enter "TTTNHFG5466328#" into any iPhone, and it will work on a Verizon network.

Seriously? I have an iPhone on AT&T anyway so it doesn't really matter to me. The Verizon EV-DO network doesn't work with the iPhone 3G anyway. So even if I could make phone calls on Verizon's network I wouldn't be able to use any of the other functions other than the iPod part of the iPhone. I use the internet on my phone all the time. Much more than I use any other function.

Do you have an iphone working on CDMA? Apple never put the technology in an iphone to speak CDMA. GSM uses TDMA, that is all the iphone can speak. Think of it like spanish vs english. The iphone doesn't have the capability to learn english (CDMA), it can only speak spanish (GSM). It would take new hardware for it to be able to speak english, not a code you enter into it.

He wasn't saying the iPhone could change frequency, he's saying Verizon has both GSM and CDMA networks but keeps the GSM one secret.
