Factory Unlock Ipĥone 4 with version 5.1.

Good Afternoon,
I just want to ask, how do I get my iphone 4 unlock. The carrier is telus but this Iphone was just given to me by my mom and she sent to me via mail, so i dont really know what to do to it. Its version is 5.1. I really want to use it as a phone. Someone please help me. thanks

I have no idea what that means. Put a microSIM in it from whatever cell carrier you want to use and see if you can activate it. If you can it is unlocked, if not you will need to contact Telus.

If the iPhone had the 4.0 Beta loaded on it, the iPhone needs to be registered with a developer for the iPhone to even function. If it's not registered and the beta is installed then it is a brick. Regardless of if it is registered or not, as Tamara said the iPhone 4.0 Beta has no support. The Beta is a beta and is for developers who are developing apps. That way they can release apps as soon as the OS 4.0 is released sometime this summer. You should get an error message saying something along the lines of this phone is not registered with a developer, if the iPhone is not registered.

If it is unlocked by the carrier then you just need to plug it into iTunes with a SIM card from a compatible carrier. If you get a message saying that the SIM is not from an authorized carrier, well then the iPhone is not unlocked, sorry.
If the iPhone is not unlocked you are really out of luck. While there are ways to hack an iPhone to unlock it, there are no methods for the 4.0 Beta to unlock the iPhone, and even if there is a way to hack it to unlock the iPhone 3GS on the 4.0 OS, it won't come for a long time.

As RG said, you cannot determine solely from the model number whether an iPhone is unlocked or not. In what country and from what dealer did you buy this iPhone?

IPhone 4 factory unlocked replaced in USA. Will Apple replace it with a locked one?

Hey guys,
I bought my girlfriend a factory unlocked iPhone 4 from Canada for Christmas last year and few days ago somehow her phone won't charge anymore. I told her to try and get it checked out by an Apple specialist. She ended up sending the phone over to an Apple Care Center in her local area (MI), got an email in return showing her the progress status and all. Much to our surprise, Apple replaced her with a brand new iPhone 4 within 24 hours.
Here's the problem. She just tried to get it set up but the phone says no service and she can't hook it up to her iTunes to activate anything. She called up Apple again and their suggestion was to get her to download the latest iTunes and to try syncing it again. She just did that and it still doesn't work. My suspicion right now is the local center might have replaced her with a locked phone 4 but then again, i'm not familiar with the whole carrier locking system in the US so i'm not entirely sure if i'm right.
Any suggestions or help would greatly be appreciated. Anyone ever experienced the same problem or know for sure that she has been replaced with a locked iPhone 4?

Do you have receipt that you bought your previous phone in Canada? If so, go back to apple store in Michigan, and perhaps they will replace it. Otherwise, you pro ably should have returned it to the store in Canada. You best bet is to call apple and see if they can come up with a solution.

Is the new TMobile contract free iPhone6 factory unlocked? What I mean is will it work in India or Middle east with a local sim over there?

Is the new TMobile contract free iPhone6 factory unlocked? What I mean is will it work in India or Middle east with a local sim card over there?

Previous T-Mobile versions of iPhones (5, 5s, 5C) bought directly from Apple required no activation with T-mobile at all, and would accept any sim card.
Since you are essentially paying full price for the phone. You cannot be locked to a carrier.
They simply came packaged with a T-Mobile sim you could discard and replace with your own.
There's no real reason to think this will change for the new iPhones.

I bought 2 iPhone's 5S that were "contract-free" and they worked just fine with other carriers.
Could some one from the US check if the "contract-free" iPhone 6 could be used with a local carrier?
When they are released, I'm sure many people will do just that.

Ok finally after 5 hours i get version 3 on my factory unlocked but......

Hi there, i finally get this version 3 for my factory unlocked iphone, does anybody know why i havent any mms icons within my messages, no options for mms whatsoever, im using 3 network, in the uk.
Please advise

I'm unfamiliar with those folders, and why it would be necessary to delete them. One suggestion to try, and I don't know if it will make any difference. I don't your Lightroom preferences, performance tab and uncheck GPU acceleration and see if that makes a difference.

Is iphone 5s 16gb available in factory unlocked version in USA?

is iphone 5s 16gb available in factory unlocked version in USA

As Chris says. while the phone will work in India some features such as LTE connectivity may not work.
As to the differences, there is only one unlocked iPhone for sale form the Apple store. The T-Mobile version.
It is contract free and unlocked. But only if you buy it from Apple. If you buy it from a T-Mobile store it will be locked.
Also I'll repeat what Chris said: The warranty will only be valid in the US. so if you have any issues with the phone you won't be able to get it fixed or exchanged anywhere but the US.

Unlocked iphone replaced with a locked one

Last year in October I bought an unlocked iphone 5s in Thailand, I live in Croatia and had some issues with the screen and yesterday apple gave me a new replacement iphone, and the replacement iphone is locked. Been talking with Apple support yesterday for over an hour, and they suspect its locked to US AT&T (but not 100 % sure if its AT&T), they can see the store info where I bought it in Thailand but they say they can't do anything to unlock it, so they gave me phone number of AT&T and said they would unlock it wihout problem.
Anyway then I started talking to AT&T support then and been talking to a couple of managers for over 2 hours, they just keep passing me to another higher level person and in the end they said they couldn't do anything, their best suggestion was that I go from Croatia to the store in Thailand where I bought to iphone so they unlock it.
I did a online check of my Iphone over IME numberI and this is the info I got:
Model: SVC,IPHONE 5S,GSM,16GB,GRAY,CI/AR
MAC: 78FD94CB1455
ICCID:
iOS Version: 8.0.2
Unbricked: false
Unlocked: false
Activation Status: No
First Unbricked Date:
Last Unbricked Date:
Initial Activation Policy: 52 - US GSM Service Policy
Applied Activation Policy: -
Next Tether Policy (Carrier): 52 - US GSM Service Policy
Status: Locked
Please help, what should I do?

Whatever you do, do not use the factory unlocks, because then you will never be able to use your phone - this amounts to hacking your phone, which will void any warranty cover and perhaps brick your phone for good.
Anyway, what you need to do is go back to the Apple reseller who gave you the replacement phone in the first place and tell them that you had an unlocked phone and that the replacement they gave you is locked to AT&T and you need to demand that you give you another replacement phone that is unlocked.
If you went to the Apple re-seller for help in the first place and they were the ones who gave you the replacement phone, then it is their responsibility to give you another unlocked phone and not one that is locked to a network. They need to replace like with like, so if you went through them, then it is their responsibility and not Apple or AT&T. There is nothing AT&T can do for you to unlock the phone, as you never had a contract with them in the first place and Apple do not unlock phones anyway - only the carriers, so your first port of call must be the re-seller.
However, if you purchased the phone in Thailand you have no warranty cover for Croatia - iPhone warranty is not international, so to get a proper exchange and warranty cover, you will really need to go back to the Apple store in Thailand where you purchased the phone to get a proper unlocked replacement and this iw what you should have done in the first place.
iPhone warranty is not international so the Apple re-seller in Croatia need not have helped you in the first place, which is probably why you got a locked phone as a replacement, but your first port of call is them, as you dealt with them in the first instance.
They gave you a locked phone as a replacement, so ultimately, they need to replace that locked phone with an unlocked phone as you had.

Apple Banned me, because of a very weird problem with my "Factory Unlocked"

Hi Everybody! Im having a very weird problem with my unlocked iphone 4.
First of all, i would like to apologize because of my english, is not very good. My native language is Spanish.
Well.. Im from Mexico, and here we can buy the iphone Unlocked on the Apple Online Store.
Here's my problem. Apple has exchanged my iphone 3 times.
I returned the iphone the first time because the screen was totally yellowish, other than that everything was working great!, that was by the end of September.
On October 20th, i recieved my second iphone, and then a bigger problem started .
Before i continue, let me give you this information: here in Mexico we have basically 3 cell phone companies
1.- Telcel
2.- Movistar
3.- Unefon
OK, now on october 20th, i recieved my second iphone, and then procced to activate via itunes using my UNEFON sim card (microsim).
And every time i tried to activate it, only got this message onscreen:
http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s2/jorgelomeli/Screenshot2010-10-29at24915PM. png
I though something was wrong with my brand new factory unlocked iphone 4.
I have 4 more simcards from my brothers (they all had iphone 4 too)
I tried telcel sim card, and i could activate my iphone. Then i insterted the Movistar microsim, and it worked too!! But then when i put the Unefon sim, the itunes logo inmediatly appears on the screen asking to activate on itunes, and when i tried that, the only response i got was the image above saying " The Simcard inserted on this iphone does not appear to be supported"
Weird thing here is, that, when i put my Unefon sim card on my brothers iphone 4, it worked great! on all of them, internet 3g, phone, wireless , evrything!
I called apple support, and they exchange the iphone for another one.
I recieved the third iphone on October 29. Last friday. and guess what? SAME PROBLEM! different serial number, same week production (week 42) but exactly the same message on itunes.
Very, very frustrated, i called apple again, and after 1 hour with thechnical support, they told me " We are sorry, but we can only offer you, your money back, NO MORE EXCHANGES FOR YOU"
I said why?... i dont want my money back! i want an UNLOCKED iphone!, but they refuse to give me another iphone.
When i asked techincal support, why my unefon sim card worked great on all three of my brothers iphone but not on mine, he just told me, "I really dont know, i guess they just got lucky" ****, this answer put all my trust i had on apple products for years, right on the garbage.
Since they refused to give me another iphone, i accepted my money back, and inmediatly after i finished the call, i asked my brother to buy me one more time an iphone 4 using his name, and his credit card. Now i have to wait until November 8-12 to recieve my new iphone, hoping this time i get a REAL UNLOCKED iphone, and not a partially unlocked iphone.
btw. i even went to Unefon costumer service and bought a new prepiad line, with a new microsim, just to be 100% sure that this problem is not because of the sim. And again didnt worked on my iphone, but it worked on any of my brothers iphone4.
Serial numbers of the 3 iphones:
79039C0U* (this one worked great with Unefon, only problem was yellow screen)
85042GR4*
81042FJB*
What do you suggest me? any info would be really aprecciated
FYI i also restore 4 times the last iphone and nothing seemed to work, i use 3 different computers, Macbook Pro, iMac, and an Hp with Windows 7, and the same message on all three computers.
Wierd thing also, one of my brothers bougth an iphone 4 this last week too, but he bought the 16Gb not the 32Gb. His iphone production week is 42 also! and when i put my Unefon sim in his iphone works great!
I dont know what else i can do, I just need to have faith that my new iphone coming this november will be real unlocked, but what if i'll recieve an iphone and then the same problem?? time for android? just kidding really guys, what can i do? anyone with similar problem like me? i dont wanna use Telcel or Movistar, i wanna use Unefon, and thats why i bought an Unlocked iphone
btw: jailbreak is not a solution for me, because i always like to use legal software on all my apple products, and because of the warranty.

According to http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1937, there are two official carriers in Mexico (Movistar and Telcel) and neither carrier offers an unlocked phone.

Factory Unlocked iPhone 3Gs upgraded to 4.2.1 no longer working with SIMs

I think this is an ios 4.2.1 glitch.
I purchased a facotry unlocked iPhone when I was in Jordan because I travel a great deal for work and needed a phone that I could use with many SIM cards. When I set it up the first time, and several times after that when I upgraded the ios iTunes would connect to Apple and welcome me to my apple unlocked phone. For more than a year I have been able to use it will all of my SIM cards.
The last time I upgraded to ios 4.2.1 iTunes did not connect to Apple to confirm my unlocked phone. Additionally my phone will only become activated when I install my Iraqna SIM chip. It won't work with any other SIM.
I have a No Service message on my phone and while it lists all of the SIM information - when I go to General - About - Network I get a message saying 'phone not allowed' for every SIM except my Iraqna.
I tried to restore my phone to the previous ios but couldn't because of the upgraded firmware.
I tried to restore my phone and set it up and a new phone.
I am traveling at the moment and cannot afford to use my hotel phone to be put on hold while waiting to speak to a service representative. I depend on my phone and have been resisting buying a cheap Nokia or an expensive Smartphone to replace my very loved iPhone 3gs.
I also really don't want to have to illegally break into my factory unlocked phone just so that I can use it as a phone.
Please Help.

Hi sn4p2k.
I take it that you have not heard of this problem and therefore don't have an answer.
I am not living in America at the moment.
Apple most definitely provides factory unlocked phones outside of America. I paid $1000 for this one from an Apple authorized reseller in Amman and it worked perfectly with Apple and iTunes through several ios upgrades for more than a year.
My phone is not tied to a carrier - that is what factory unlocked means.
I upgraded my ios and now I can't use my phone.
If anyone out there has had this problem and has a suggestion or a solution I would be very grateful if you could tell me what it is.
Thank you.

I bought the iphone 4s about a year ago, he was not new. The seller told me that he did the factory unlock, but he lied. Now I live in Russia and want to use the iPhone with a local GSM sim card.

Edge has very clear restrictions, one being that you must have 6 months of clean payment history which you don't. Either wait until April 14, or good luck at Sprint.
I am unsure how it can be determined the payment mix up was the fault of CS, but regardless, the mix up was done. There can be any number of reasons why a payment could be missed without any fault on your part, however you are still the responsible party for the account and must live with the repercussions.
