Chosen Solution I just got a used iPhone 1st generation. Was that a good move? Could I unlock it and use it with Verizon, my carrier? As far as using it on a CDMA carrier like Verizon, no. Not only is it an issue with network compatibility (the iPhone 2G is GSM only) but carriers like Verizon restrict the phones they accept to an approved IMEI/ESN range. You’re also really going to hate using a 2G phone every day as these are slow by the age of the network they run on....

Chosen Solution I can hear a hissing sound coming from my macroline, and I think it’s leaking air. How can I fix this? After heavy use, the Ion’s macro line can wiggle loose from the fittings causing air to leak out. To fix this, check out the macro line replacement guide.
