    I'm going to make some guesses here. You bought your phone second hand. In other words, not from Apple and not from your carrier. What you got is a hacked phone that was originally carrier locked, most likely to AT&T in the US. You are NOT in the US. (If I get any of this wrong, please tell me).
    What has happened is when you updated the software, it was re-locked to the original carrier.  ONLY the carrier can authorize an unlock. If it is locked to AT&T, you're out of luck as they WILL NOT unlock an iPhone for any reason.
    If it's locked to another carrier, you will have to find out what carrier that is (you can NOT tell by looking at the model number) and find out if they unlock iPhones. If you can't find out, or if they do not, then your only real option is to sell the phone and purchase one from a LEGITIMATE source.

    Replying to my own post - heh. I downloaded iExplorer (http://www.macroplant.com/iexplorer/) which allowed me access to the files on the phone and there was the phantom movie in the DCIM folder. Deleted it, and all is well - although I still have 0.65gb of Other in iTunes.....

    You don't. It only sync using iTunes.
    It doesn't "pair".
    and my ue speaker
    What is "ue speaker"?
    Ultimate Ears wirless bluetooth speaker?
    Set speaker to Pairing mode.
    On the iPhone, Settings > BlueTooth.
    Select the speaker.

  • HT4061 how to restore the iphone 4 when you get a restore message error (-1)?

    how to restore the iphone 4 when you get a restore message error (-1)?

    If the iPhone was jailbroken, you get this error due to baseband mismatch. No help for such iPhones here in this forum.
    if not, Restore on another computer. If error persists it is hardware failure.

    How to open the iPhone 5S Unlocked

    Contact the carrier to whom it is locked, inquire about their process to unlock, and if you qualify.
    If it is already unlocked or was purchased as unlocked, simply insert a SIM from a supported carrier.

  • How check on the WS - exist or not exist InventoryJob ?

    From The C1 create XP_Inventory politic and apply it to the WS.
    Use time shedule:
    Tusday between 13:00...16:00 , System, below normal prior.
    at the 12:45 WS was rebooted (reboot | log in to the NW| reboot again | log
    in to the NW)
    But i do not see any info about WS in the Tree. See only WS object without
    Minimal Information of the Workstation.

  • Hello,how much does the iphone 4 16gb unlocked cost if i want to buy it as a gift and to use it outside USA?

    Hello,how much does the iphone 4 16gb unlocked cost if i want to buy it as a gift and to use it outside USA?

    If you're talking about buying the phone in the US, forget it. There are NO unlocked iPhones sold in the US and no US iPhone can be officially unlocked. Thus, it doesn't really matter what it costs.

  • How to get the iphone serial number  in application?

    hello,  everyone
       i  really want to konw how to get the iphone serial number in aplication ?  As it's different from uniqueIdentifier ....
    thank you

    Michele is correct - sneep will help you get the serial from the running domain on the M3000 ,
    and it is a good idea to install STB on your machines.
    If that isn't possible for you, then sneep can be downloaded directly from [http://www.sun.com/sneep]
    I believe that on this platform, sneep gets the serial from the output of prtconf.
    There is a minor correction to be made :
    After installed SNEEP use "man sneep" for all technical details.The sneep man page is not linked into the shared man pages, so you need to use
    man -M /opt/SUNWsneep/man sneep
    with out going to OK prompt (Banner)It is worth noting that the serial shown in the OBP banner is not the product serial
    that you will find on the physical serial tag.
    The banner "serial" is the decimal equivalent of the host ID, which you normally get in hexadecimal from the "hostid" command.

    Probably not because the iPhone warranty is NOT international, but is country specific, so if you purchased it in the US, then it will have to go back to the US for repair.
    You can try and take it into a store in Hong Kong and see if they will help you, but if it is a US phone, then they have every right to refuse due to warranty cover and they also have different models if your phone needs replacing and they won't be able to give you the same model if the phone came to from the US and this is why warranty cover for the iPhone is country specific and NOT international.
    You can try, but you might be out of luck and if so, then there is nothing you can do except send the phone to any relatives that you have living in the US and see if they will take it to an Apple store in the US to get it repaired for you.  Otherwise you'll have to get it repaired on your next trip to the US.
    This is exactly why you should have thought very long and hard before purchasing a US iPhone and having exactly this situation where you can get nothing done about repairing the phone due to country specific warranty.
    The only other thing that you can do of course, is to buy a new iPhone from Hong Kong and then you will have no problem with warranty cover.
