Hi Community,

Happy 2025.
I have some questions about erasing an iPhone.

1. If I erase my iPhone and set it up will it affect my Cellular Data plan? I'm using Cricket so should I be fine?
2. When setting up my iPhone again, will I get my Cellular Data back or will I need to visit my carrier, Cricket?

Thanks

If this is a new device you are setting up, and comes from your cellular provider, then you should not have any issues. However, if you are trying to add a new device to your plan, you will need to visit your cellular provider.

If you are just wanting to reset your current device, for any reason, then you should not have any issues, as your cellular provider has your data settings hardcoded into the firmware, for lack of a better explanation.

I hope this answers your question.
