Hello, I have purchased a Samsung Galaxy Ace on Virgin Contract but I wish to use the New contract Sim in a Samsung s2, will I have any problems with this?

I plan to sell on the Galaxy Ace. I've considered network unlocking it to get a higher value, and was wondering if it will still be associated with my contract via its IMEI number or some other connection etc????
if yes how do I protect myself?

Never had a contract phone before so totally new to this mobile area :-( help please!

    As long as the S2 is unlocked there's no reason why you cannot use your virgin Sim in it

    You can do what you like with the Galaxy Ace the contract is with the Sim not the phone

    As long as you pay your contract there will be no problems.
