You can turn off cellular data in Settings -> Cellular, but I don't know if this will keep the phone from looking for a cellular connection entirely.

Hi,

When I got a new phone, I gave my son the old one to use as an iPod touch. I left the sim card in it, and it works fine that way. I went into phone settings and set it not to look for a cell signal so it wouldn't run down the battery searching for one, and it has worked well. It just shows No Service where the cell signal indicator would normally be.

And no, I can't make cell phone calls on it. Skype and Facetime work fine though.

Best,
Anna

What happens if you ever need to do a Reset Factory Settings to troubleshoot problems not otherwise fixable? How does one go about that? Wouldn't you need a sim card to do that? Could you just temporarily pop out the sim card from your new phone (assuming you have a phone with a sim card)?

My iPhone 4 has been deactivated but I can still use all it's apps and can
even update those apps via WI-FI and my home router.  I have turned
automatic updating off because some of my old apps work fine and I'm not interested in upgrading them because I'll upgrade them on my 5s instead.

Clifton you need a sim card inserted at the time of activation. Once
activated you can remove the sim card and use the phone like an iPod
Touch. My iPhone 4 is set up this way now I upgraded to a 4s.
