Can you charge your cell without a sim card?

Answer 1

Yes. Verizon phones on the home CDMA network wil work without the SIM card installed. I have a Blackberry Storm, fully functional without the SIM in it. Phones on other networks may have limited functionality (i.e. 911 only) without the SIM installed.

Answer 2

Yes you can make emergency calls only at that time, that is a feature of all GSM Mobiles, these emergency calls are dialed to a number 112, which typically are routed to your local support number for the areas

Answer 3

Depends on what you mean by "work."

• If you mean "Play games, surf the web, and use e-mail on a Wifi network," then yes. But then, all you have is an expensive iPod Touch.
• If you mean "Make calls, send SMS messages, and use the 3G or 4G network," then no.

All current iPhones require a SIM card; even Verizon phones due to the 4G LTE network. Other Verizon phones which use only the CDMA network don't need a SIM, but any 4G smartphone will have one.

Answer 4

Absolutely ! Your phone only needs the SIM card to connect you to the network. Your charger will work whether the SIM card is installed or not.

Answer 5

No, the Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card contains the information needed by your phone provider to connect to the phone. Without it the phone is nothing but a "brick".

Answer 6

Not all cell phones use SIM cards
