Can I bring my current phone to Tesix Wireless?

Yes, you can!

For a phone to work on Tesix Wireless, it has to be unlocked and compatible. Usually any 5G or 4G LTE-supported phone that accepts a SIM card (or supports eSIM) will work with our service.

If you previously used that phone with AT&T, T-Mobile, Cricket, Simple Mobile, Straight Talk or other prepaid GSM carriers, then it’ll work with Tesix Wireless also.

You may have to reach out to your previous carrier to have them unlock the device for you or ensure that it is unlocked.

You can also check your settings for any sim locks.

For iPhone

Method 1: Using Settings

1. Open the Settings app.
2. Go to General > About.

   • If it says "No SIM restrictions," your iPhone is unlocked.
   • If it says something like "SIM Locked" or lists a carrier, your iPhone is locked.

Method 2: Testing with a Different SIM Card

1. Insert a SIM card from a different carrier.
2. Restart the phone.
3. Check if the phone connects to the network.
   • If it doesn’t and displays a message like "SIM not supported", the iPhone is locked.

3. Restart the device.
   • If the phone connects to the network, it’s unlocked.

Method 3: Dialing a Code
