What is the function of SIM card in telephone?

The function of a SIM card is relatively simple. It's not a super advanced item that controls your phone, rather, it is basically nothing more than a storage device for information useable by yourself and your cellular carrier. It has limited memory to save this information. And this 'storage device' is also the reason you can use someone elses phone, put your SIM card into it and have all of your phone numbers and information about your account on their phone. This is of course unless their cellular provider has SIM-locked their phones. Anyways, long story short SIM-Card = storage device.


What is the memory of the sim card, and how small is it?

Your SIM card won't work in another phone how can you make it work?

Because in the US all GSM devices (ones that require a SIM card) are SIM locked to their respective carrier (AT&T or T-mobile). Before you can use your SIM in another carrier's device you must get the SIM Unlock Code (some call it a Subsidy Unlock Code) from the service provider that the device was manufactured for and then they will also give you the instructions for inputting the code into your device.

Can you use a TracFone sim card in a boost phone?

No you cannot. AT&T uses a GSM network and Boost uses iDEN and the two are not even remotely compatible. The Boost SIM card can be used for international roaming but it will not work with GSM networks in the US. It will not work either way, a Boost SIM will not work in a GSM device and a GSM SIM will not work in a Boost device.
