GSM differs significantly from its predecessors in that both signaling and speech channels are Digital call quality, which means that it is considered a second generation (2G) mobile phone system. GSM is an open standard which is currently developed by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP).

Did you know that cell phones are locked by providers in order to help ensure customer loyalty? If you want to use the cell phone of your choice, and you don’t want to switch providers to do so, look for unlocked cell phones. Unlocked GSM cell phones can be purchased easily and quickly, so you can start using the cell phone you want to as soon as possible.

Unlocked cell phones are those which have been designed so that the phone itself does not need to rely on a singular cell phone provider Subscriber Identification Module card. Cell phones are created with these Subscriber Identification Module cards, or SIM cards, in order to store the information and data for the individual subscriber or client – such as yourself! A locked cell phone will only recognize the SIM card of the cell phone provider for which the phone was made. This means that if you purchased your phone and your cell phone contract through Company X, your phone will only be able to read a SIM card from Company X if the phone is not one of the now readily available unlocked cell phones. The lock is put in place on the phone in order to keep the cell phone owner ‘loyal’ to the cell phone company that sponsors or provides the phone. Unlocked cell phones are those which can read the SIM cards from any cell phone service provider, not just company X. As a result, when a person wants a cell phone from a provider that they don’t presently use, they will want to find an unlocked cell phone so they can use the phone they want to without changing cell phone providers – which can cost a great deal of money if you have to cancel your present subscription, all just to get the phone of your choice.

Cellular phones have become one of society’s most ubiquitous accessories. What was once the domain of the wealthy technophile is now found in nearly every pocket or handbag from pre-teens to the elderly. For many, the cellular phone has even replaced the landline phone as their only telephone service. Yet with so many people purchasing cellular phones it is amazing that so few people know what they are really buying.


Although you may have purchased your phone from a service provider, in many ways the phone is not entirely yours. Many cellular phones are not able to be used at any place or with any carrier you choose. Instead, many cellular phones are locked by the manufacturer, and you can only use certain service providers with that particular phone. That holds true for all phones, unless you have purchased an unlocked cellular phone.


Inside your cellular phone is something called a Subscriber Identity Module, or as it is more commonly known, a SIM card. The SIM card is the key to your cellular phone, and all of your phones identifying characteristics and memory functions are stored there; you might call it the brains and DNA of your phone. The SIM card can be switched from one phone to another, and it allows you to instantly activate your new phone on the network while eliminating the need to reprogram information like your contact list on your new phone.

It’s unfortunate but many service providers program their GSM cell phones in such a way that they won’t work with SIM cards from another. Unlocking your Verizon cell phones means overwriting such programming. But what if your service provider minds? Not likely: besides some kind of stipulation in your contract that charges you with never altering your phone in any way whatsoever, it’s your phone; you own it. And even given such a clause you might still actually unlock your phone, as your provider makes money whether the phone is locked or unlocked. Besides, you probably wouldn’t unlock your phone anyway unless you were switching to another provider like Verizon Cell Phones – in which case it doesn’t matter if the old one minds! Just be sure to keep any unlocking codes for future reference, as there has been at least one report of a provider relocking a phone – even though it wasn’t even one issued by that provider!

One of the most asked questions we receive at Search4cellphonedeals.com is can I use any unlocked cell phone for my carrier?  The short answer is, no you cannot.  There are several things to consider before you run out and buy an unlocked cell phone.

First let’s look at what an unlocked cell phone is.  Some cell phones are designed to use a Subscriber Identification Module card or SIM card for short.  A SIM card is a microchip that stores subscriber data.  The SIM card is issued by a carrier and provides cell service by activating any phone into which it is inserted.  A locked cell phone, however, will only recognize a SIM card from a particular carrier.  If the cell phone is unlocked, it will recognize a SIM card from any carrier.  The “lock” is a software setting that keeps the cell phone “loyal” to one carrier.  This is done by the major carriers to ensure you don’t get a FREE cell phone under a two-year contract and then not pay on the contract and use that cell phone with another provider.  It is in this way that the cell phone providers can justify giving individuals a FREE cell phone that would have otherwise cost the consumer money.

If you have just found that your GSM mobile is locked, you might be racking your brains about what it means and maybe even asking yourself about how you can unlock it on your own. Simply answering, some wireless providers actually do lock their phones so that only the SIMs and memory cards issued by them will work on these phones.

While you might like the phone, you may not like the provider; in such a situation you need to know how to unlock the phone before you can actually change over to another service.

Whilst a traditional cell phone service works by sending calls to a phone, which retains its own unique serial number, a GSM mobile phone is very different. This phone uses a removable memory card or account card which is also known as a SIM card where SIM stands for “subscriber information module”. It is the card which identifies you to the service provider, as it has its own unique serial number.
