Is this a configuration change or do I need a SIM card?
Hello there BEVDEI78 and thank you for reaching out to us regarding this matter. When it comes to our devices, all phones are locked to our network for 60 days after purchase. Once those 60 days have passed, the device is unlocked provided it does not appear on any negative list. You can then use the phone with any carrier provided you have their SIM card. You can check out the device lock policy by visiting the link here https://www.verizon.com/support/device-locking-faqs/
