How do i unlock iphone for overseas

How do I unlock my iphone for overseas or to change to tmobile carrier?
It is a 3G or 3GS model I believe.
I don't want to void the warranty.
Thanks!
Jon

Depend on the country from which the iphone was purchased.
The ONLY place that can unlock the iphone legally/legitimately is the carrier to which it is locked and ONLY if they offer that service.
For example, ALL U.S. iphone are carrier locked and CANNOT be unlocked.

    If you mean your passcode lock:
    If You Are Locked Out Or Have Forgotten Your Passcode or Just Need to Restore Your Device
      1. iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
      2. iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
      3. iOS- Understanding passcodes
         If you have forgotten your Restrictions code, then follow the instructions
         below but DO NOT restore any previous backup. If you do then you will
         simply be restoring the old Restrictions code you have forgotten. This
         same warning applies if you need to restore a clean system.
    A Complete Guide to Restore or Recover Your iDevice (if You Forget Your Passcode)
    If you need to restore your device or ff you cannot remember the passcode, then you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and re-sync the data from the device (or restore from a backup). If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.
    Try restoring the iOS device if backing up and erasing all content and settings doesn't resolve the issue. Using iTunes to restore iOS devices is part of standard isolation troubleshooting. Restoring your device will delete all data and content, including songs, videos, contacts, photos, and calendar information, and will restore all settings to their factory condition.
    Before restoring your iOS device, Apple recommends that you either sync with iTunes to transfer any purchases you have made, or back up new data (data acquired after your last sync). If you have movie rentals on the device, see iTunes Store movie rental usage rights in the United States before restoring.
    Follow these steps to restore your device:
         1. Verify that you are using the latest version of iTunes before attempting to update.
         2. Connect your device to your computer.
         3. Select your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch when it appears in iTunes under Devices.
         4. Select the Summary tab.
         5. Select the Restore option.
         6. When prompted to back up your settings before restoring, select the Back Up
             option (see in the image below). If you have just backed up the device, it is not
             necessary to create another.
         7. Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you (as long as you've backed up,
             you should not have to worry about restoring your iOS device).
         8. When the restore process has completed, the device restarts and displays the Apple
             logo while starting up:
               After a restore, the iOS device displays the "Connect to iTunes" screen. For updating
              to iOS 5 or later, follow the steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. For earlier versions of
              iOS, keep your device connected until the "Connect to iTunes" screen goes away or
              you see "iPhone is activated."
         9. The final step is to restore your device from a previous backup. If you do not have a
              backup to restore, then restore as New.
    If you are restoring to fix a forgotten Restrictions Code or as a New device, then skip Step 9 and restore as New.
    If you mean unlocked from your carrier, then contact them as they are the only ones who can unlock the phone.

  • How do I unlock iphone 5 (verizon)

    How do I unlock iPhone 5 (Verizon), is this done through Verizon or through Apple? Can it be used outside the US on a foreign carrier?

    You need to do it through Verizon. Only the carrier the device is locked to can authorize the unlock on the phone. If the GSM side is unlocked, then yes you can use it with a foreign carrier. However, if my memory serves me correctly, the GSM side of the iPhone 5 for Verizon is already unlocked. Try it with a foreign SIM.

  • How do i unlock pictures for my slide show?

    how do i unlock pictures for slideshow? do i have to save them? where?

    Which operating system are you running on?
    Which version of Photoshop Elements are you using?
    If you have made changes to a photo, those changes have to be saved before you can use that photo in a slideshow. Where you save it is really up to you.
    Do you use the organizer and import all your photos into it? Please note that Elements itself does not keep a copy of your photos - you always have control over where the photos are stored. The elements organizer just saves the links to your photos.
    If you have selected a photo in the organizer and then selected edit, the editor will open and you can make your changes. While the photo is open in the editor, it is marked as locked in the organizer. When you have finished editing the photo, save it and the close it in the editor. The lock in the organizer is then released.
    I hope that helps you. If you still have a query, please tell us how you are working and we may be able to provide other advice.
