Find out the carrier lock on iPhone 3GS

Hi,
How can i found out on which carrier network my iPhone 3GS iOS 4.1 is locked on? The Model number is: MC131FB
Thanks

Apart from inserting different networks SIMs and finding out which it works and doesn't work on, there is no way to tell which network an iPhone is or isn't locked to.

    However, his father can put the phone in DFU mode and erase it, thereby deleting all of the files (pictures, texts, etc) on the phone. He might want to think about that.

  • Help me know the carrier of my iphone 3gs

    my iphone 3gs not working in nepal so i want to know the carrier of it how do i do it

    Why do you say it is not working? Where did you purchase the phone? Are there supported carriers in Nepal? Sounds like you have a locked device and tried to update it and now it is relocked?

  • How do i find out the parental lock code, i am the parent and i don't remember setting a restriction.

    My son's ipod is asking for the code to remove the parental restrictions, I am the parent and i don't remember putting in any restriction code. Any idea how to find out what it is?

    Forgotten RESTRICTIONS Passcode
    - Restore from a backup that was make before you added the Restrictions passcode. If you restore from a backup made with the Restrictions passcode the Restrictions passcode is also restored. Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.                
    - If you are up to file manipulation see the following but it may not work for iOS 6.1.3:

  • HT1414 How can i find out the last time my iphone was restored?

    Hey, i need help on how to find out when the last few times my iphone was restored.
    Thanks

    This is a strange question, not sure where you are going with this one. On the computer you Restored with, iTunes requests to back up the iPhone. These are time stamped and stored on the computer. You can use iTunes to search the list of back ups of your iPhone and see the dates, so you can at least see the dates of the back ups.

  • How can i find out the latest info about iPhone etc? when's the next update

    Does anyone know wether the iphone will soon be able to foward text messages?

    Even if you had purchased an iPhone prior to the 2nd generation iPhone being released, this would not have prevented you from purchasing the 2nd generation and activating it with your O2 account, and selling your existing iPhone.
    The 18 month contract is not tied to a particular iPhone - at least not with at&t in the U.S. If my iPhone was lost or stolen, and I purchased another iPhone as a replacement, I could activate the new iPhone with my existing at&t account under my current contract without having to sign a new two year contract on the new iPhone's activation date, and without any penalty. The iPhone is not subsidized by the cellular provider in the typical way.
    No point in your purchasing an iPhone from the U.S. anyway. The iPhone is sold in the U.S. as carrier locked with at&t only. The only way you could use an iPhone purchased in the U.S. with O2, or with any other GSM network provider besides at&t is by hacking the iPhone to unlock it. Doing so is against Apple's license agreement for the iPhone, it not supported by Apple, voids the warranty, and will prevent you from installing future iPhone updates, or at least until the hack used is update to be compatible with a new update. The same applies when Restoring an iPhone if needed or wanted.
    Since you live in the UK, and if you don't have any problems with O2 as a provider, you will be much better off purchasing an iPhone sold in the UK, which is sold by Apple in the UK as carrier locked with O2 only.

  • HT1267 I need to find out the UDID of an iPhone I just sold. Help!

    Hi. I sold my iPhone 4 yesterday, but had no idea I'd need to have information from it that I couldn't find in iTunes. But I guess I do. I'm hoping someone may know if and where I might be able to locate the UDID of my iPhone without actually having the iPhone. I found the IMEI and the serial number, but the app I downloaded to another iPhone won't let me access it unless I can go online to their site and enter in this UDID to transfer the data from the game to my new phone. So frustrated So is this possible? Or do I have to give up my attempt to transfer my data without the old iPhone?
    Thanks!!

  • I would like to find out what Carrier my iPhone is locked too

    I have an iPhone 3Gs I bought online, upon restoring it I inserted my Vodafone sim to find out it was Locked
    That wouldn't be an issue as I am on Pay and Go, but I have tried O2, Vodafone, T-Mobile and Orange sims but it still doesnt find any network.
    I looked online to see if it was blocked by IMEI number and its not.
    Here is the IMEI of my iPhone: ******** and this is my Serial Number: 889****3NP
    Please if anyone can find out what network it is locked too or if I can get it unlocked officially through apple somehow?
    Kind Regards
    <Edited by Host>

    Apple does not do this at all.
    ONLY the carrier to which it is locked can unlock it.
    You should probably not leave this much information about your iphone on a public forum.
    You will need to ask whomever sold it to you who the carrier is.

    Ask whomever originally purchased the phone.  There is no reliable way to tell otherwise - certainly none of your fellow Apple users here can tell you.
    P.S. if you are in the USA and the iPhone was purchased in the USA, it has to be AT&T.
