[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1778117, member: 46727"] The Activation Lock they're refering to is that which locks your Apple ID to the phone. It's there to prevent a thief from stealing your phone and using it or selling it. And yes, when resetting an iPhone or iPad the FMF has to be turned off. I didn't know about signing out of iCloud when swapping SIM cards and resetting the iPhone but it does make sense. Sue's idea above might be best if you don't want to share your wife's phone. I guess you need to consider if paying Verizon $10/day for roaming outside the US is cheaper than having to buy another phone or the inconvenience of sharing or resetting. [/QUOTE]
