how to unlock my disabled iphone 5 without itunes

In brief it's a practice of modifying the iOS on your iPhone. If your iPhone is hacked or jailbroken it will leave it vulnerable to malware and risk bricking your iPhone should you attempt future software updates or restoring your iPhone.  This link will help http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3743.

  • Unlock iPhone 5c without iTunes

    I had been waiting for an 'unlock' (aka $50 rip-off) for the better part of two weeks.  It was for my D who is now out of the country for a couple weeks.  I still hold hope that that unlock 'sequence of instructions' will arrive any-day-now. But since she is across the pond, I can't connect her phone to our ITunes. 
    Is there a way to complete the unlock (so she can use a local SIM card for a couple weeks) without connecting her phone to ITunes?
    We're ATT for 10+years and will still be ATT after she comes home.  This is an unlock for a few weeks.

    You would need to restore as a new iPhone via iTunes.
    $50?
    I did not think that AT&T charged for this.   Did you go throughout AT&T?

  • How can i get my deleted contacts in my iphone 4s without itunes and icloud backup

    how can i get my deleted contacts in my iphone 4s without itunes and icloud backup

    If you connect your iPhone to a computer running Linux (Ubuntu version in my case) it will become recognized as a normal USB memory pen-drive.
    From there, you can use many methods to recover your lost deleted files.
    TestDrive allows you to search the drive (iPhone memo) and gives you the possibility to recover deleted files. I'm not an expert, nor did it with iDevice by myself. But it worked for me with Symbian phone (Nokia)...

  • Can I buy an unlocked iPhone 5 without a contract?

    Hello, I live in China. I'm visiting the US this winter, and I wanted to know if I could buy an unlocked iPhone 5 without a contract.
    Since I'll only be visiting, I won't be needing it with a contract.
    Is this possible?
    I would buy this in China, but I know for a fact that an iPhone 4s ALONE would cost about $800 US dollars.
    I'd perfer not to spend that much money on a phone when I can buy the original.
    China has the tendency to make fake products, and I definitely don't want to pay $800+ US dollars for a fake.
    So is it possible I can buy an unlocked iPhone 5 without a contract?

    but it will work on 3g in india...and also it seems much cheaper in US rather than in India...again no warranty but i think these types of gadgets work for long....
    But the risk is high and sometimes it's not worth it. Anyway, good luck to you.

    Unlock?
    Passcode lock?  Restore the iphone.
    Carrier lock?  Only the carrier to which it is locked can do that.
    Something else?  Please explain

    how to identify a factory unlocked iphone 4s without taking it of the box

    The model number is NOT a reliable indicator of whether or not the phone is locked. The only exception might be models originating in countries where ALL iPhones are unlocked, or where the carriers do not offer unlocking and Apple does not sell unlocked phones (e.g. India and Japan respectively).

  • Changing sim in a factory unlocked iPhone- connect to iTunes?

    Can someone please confrim as I am getting mixed messages from Apple and other users.  I have bought a factory unlocked iPhone 4 from the online apple store (Canada) and activated it with my Canadian (Telus) micro sim by connecting it to iTunes.  Works fine. When I travel to another country and get a new sim will I have to connect iTunes again to activate the iPhone with a new sim (eg. AT&T or T-mobile)?   Some say that I need to only activate once and then I am free to pop in any micro sim (Canadian or Foreign) without going through iTunes prompt again.  Others tell me that i will have to bring  my computer with me to connect with iTunes to activate the new sim.  Also I was told by apple that i can't stick a new AT&T sim in in iPhone 4  to activate the phone while in canada because I need an active carrier signal. I will have to activate in the US. Is this true?
    You folks with unlocked iPhone 4 s please chime in and tell me your experience. Your help is gratefully appreciated.
    Cheers!

    The problem is sloved. Turns out that Apple sent me a replacment iPhone 4 that was only unlocked to Canadian carriers.  The iPhone 4 you buy on the apple.ca online store comes world wide unlocked.  At first they were trying to tell me that the apple online phones are only unlocked to Canandian carriers but this was confrimed with sales that no they are world wide unlocked.  Apple updated my profile for the iPhone4 and now I can stick any sim (Rogers, Telus, Bell, A&T, T-mobile) into the iPhone 4 and there is NO prompt to connect to iTunes.   Also confirmed that you do not need to be near an AT&T carrier signal to have the iPhone activate.  I was in Canada and stuck in an AT&T sim and it found Rogers on roaming and it was fine.

  • Can I activate an unlocked iPhone 6 without a sim card?

    My iPhone 4s was stolen in Mexico and according to my find my iPhone app, its offline. I am assuming I will never see it again. I am currently in the USA but am originally from Australia. I will be in the States until mid February. I kind of need a phone and was thinking of just purchasing an unlocked iPhone 6 whilst in the States. A lot of retail stores don't seem to sell unlocked phones, but I see I can purchase one from the apple store. I was just wondering if I purchased an unlocked iPhone 6 from the apple store with no sim card, would I be able to activate it without a sim? I have my old phone backed up on my laptop so I am hoping just to restore it to my new phone. Then I plan to use the phone with no sim until I arrive back home in Australia where I can purchase a sim with my home carrier and transfer my number back. Am I able to do this? I only intend to use my phone when connected to Wi-Fi. Any help is great

    I'm not sure if it comes with a carrier. It was given to me by my travel agent but didn't really intend to use it. It says JT - Jersey Telecom (not sure what that means?). I have to activate the sim on a website called www.rechargeminutes.com. But looking at the sim, I am unsure if it would fit in an iPhone 6 because I was reading that they are different sizes?

  • How can I activate my new, unlocked iPhone 4, without a voice/data plan?

    Purchased a new, unlocked iPhone 4 directly from apple.com. We're going to be using it for in-house testing, and we don't want/need a service plan.
    But we can't activate the phone without a SIM card. The only decent advice we've gotten is to activate it with someone else's iPhone 4 SIM card. But we'd need to do the same thing for any iOS update.
    When I visited AT&T, they said I couldn't get an iPhone 4 SIM without a contract. I'm not entirely sure that employee was correct.
    Any advice? This has been frustrating.

    You can purchase an unlocked iPhone, without contract, directly from Apple online or in any Apple retail store. Then get a cheap T-Mobile sim & activate the phone. Any T-Mobile store will be glad to help. AT&T wants ALL iPhone users under contract. While it is possible to establish service on a post-paid basis, AT&T does not like to do this for iPhone users. Since your phone is officially unlocked, you don't have to deal with AT&T.

  • How to activate a an unlocked iphone 5 without a sim card?

    Hi, I just got an unlocked Iphone 5 and I want to activate it but I don't have a sim card, Can I till do it? Thanks to all. 

    You can't do it. The iPhone requires a SIM card to activate. It does not have to be tied to an active line of service, but it must be present.

  • How can I unlock an iPhone 4 without iTunes account information?

    My daughter's iPhone 4 is registered on my Verizon account and I am the account manager.  When she got it she set it up through her own iTunes account. I have taken her phone from her as punishment and want to access the information on the phone without her knowing.  I entered the wrong unlock code too many times and it is now disabled and there is a message on the front that it must be connected to the iTunes account. How can I reset/unlock the phone while preserving the information that is currently on it?  I hunted and pecked through the Verizon site and can't find anything.  I thought since I am the account manager I could easily unlock it - - apparently not.

        Hi madisonsb,
    Just so you know, once the code has been put in incorrectly many times, to prevent unauthorized access, the phone will lock itself up and can only be restored by erasing the information and setting the phone back up. If there is a back up on iTunes it will restore everything back to the phone, but keep in mind this will also restore the old lock code used as well. So it's either erase everything and set it up as new, or erase everything and restore with the old lock code.
    Being an account manager gives you access to the Verizon Wireless account to make plan changes or upgrade phones, not gain access into information on a device. The information on a device is always considered private and we wouldn't even have access to it in any way, shape, or form.
