    Locked Rogers iPhone 4S

    I know that a chatr sim card (cut into a microsim) works on an Apple-factory-unlocked iPhone 4S (i know this because my brother and I both did this), but...
    Does a chatr (microsim card) work (calling and sms texting) on a Rogers-locked iPhone 4S?

    Not important: mms, data.
    Tell me if you know the answer from theory or experience.

    Yes I am doing it as we speak. I got a sim cutter from a co-worker and cut my sims but had the dreaded 3194 error and no matter what I tried it would not work.. so off to the apple store and there I was asked to put my sim in to activate and the bloke saw it was a cut sim and said we can give you a replacement sim free sir, say that again I said.. so he did. I said a chatr one? he said no a rogers one.. then call in and activate it. so far so good. call quality perfect, sms quick.. no issues.

    Edit

    Oh sorry Iphone 4 and 4s working.

    Are you saying that you inserted Roger's microsim into the Rogers-locked iPhone 4S and activated it on the Chatr network?

    No I am saying IF you get a rogers micro sim you can call in and have it activated. What I did do was cut my chatr sim so I could use it on the iphone 4 upon seeing that the employee said i could just ask them for a micro sim for rogers, I said oh I wanted to use it on chatr and he said you can, call in and they will activate the sim. Some on here have verified that it does work.

    any q's just PM me

    I have a cut Rogers SIM working in a locked Rogers iP4 running on Chatr. Has worked fine for over one year.

    I recall it has been discussed in another thread that a Rogers sim can be activated for Chatr. You couldn't do that with a Fido sim though.
