How can I tell if my iPhone is locked to a network?

Hi
I bought a second hand iPhone 4 the other day, I was told its locked to O2, I've cut my old O2 sim card into a micro sim and it works fine on the phone. But the sim card I want to put in is an Orange pay monthly. I've contacted O2 and filled out an unlock form, I'm just wondering if it is actually locked to O2 because I really want to use it now instead of waiting 14 days, but if I cut my sim and find out it is locked to O2 then I have no phone until it is unlocked.
Hope someone can help me find out if it is unlocked or not, thanks in advance
Lucy.

They will tell you when it is unlocked normally a text but complete the unlock you have to insert a 3rd party sim
and you then get a congratulation message through iTunes onto iPhone confirming unlock.can take up to 14 days
You may already be unlocked but need that non O2 micro sim to find out ( sometimes text doesn't arrive)

    How can I tell if my Iphone 3GS is unlocked.  I bought it used and it still has ATT info on screens but the seller said it was unlocked.  Is there a test or message somewhere?

    If it is a 3Gs from AT&T it is locked. It could have been "unofficially" unlocked (what iOS version is on it?) but if you upgrade it will relock to AT&T.
    AT&T will not unlock iPhones period. Contact the seller and get your money back.

    I heard that there was some type of security breach for iphones that use ios 7 and that users may need to go and do some type of system update.  The security breach meant that people could actually access our email, texts, and even our bank account apps.  Has anyone else heard of this, and if so what is it that we have to do to ensure the security of our phones?

    Sure, with the right equipment/contacts...but, not easily.

    Nope, Verizon won't help you, at least not without a court order.

    Locations are tracked by cell providers based on the cell towers that have been accessed. You have no control over that type of tracking. If you don't want to be tracked get rid of your cell phone.

  • How can we tell if the iphone is already fully charged in ios7? Even if its 100% the thunderbolt icon is still displayed. Not like in ios 6 that we will know when to unplug the charger because there is an indicator.

    How can we tell if the iphone is already fully charged in ios7? Even if its 100% the thunderbolt icon is still displayed. Not like in ios 6 that we will know when to unplug the charger because there is an indicator.

    For those who seem unfamiliar with what is being asked:
    On iOS 6 and older, just because the phone reached 100%, didn't mean it was Fully Charged. The way you could tell was the lightning bolt symbol that indicated the device was charging would change to an outlet plug when the device was not only 100%, but also stopped accepting further charge. This symbol switch would occur anywhere from 5-15 minutes after the device already was displaying 100%.
    Now, on iOS 7, while it still reaches 100% with that same lightning bolt charge symbol, during the 100% point, it never switches to the plug symbol to indicate the charge period is totally finished.
    Can anyone confirm if there is a way to see this charge completion in iOS 7 since it appears that there is no longer a symbol for it? Is there any indication that Apple may have changed the charging display so that now it only displays 100% when it would have previously displayed that plug symbol?
