Q: Need to erase and reset iPhone to use Italy SIM card?
I will be traveling to Italy. I have contacted AT&T for an unlock request. I have the code and am awaiting the confirmation email. The AT&T service rep made it sound so simple, but the Apple instructions are a bit confusing. Do I need to erase and reset my iPhone 5s to be able to use the unlocked phone? Once it is unlocked, can I still use the phone as usual on my AT&T plan until I get to Italy and purchase the SIM card to use over there? I don't want to have to reprogram the phone again in Europe since I will not be taking a Mac with me.
iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9.2), Also using iPad 3 and iPhone 5S

Once At&t have removed their lock that is it for life it is freed by them and is the same as buying an unlocked iPhone from Apple
