How to unlock iphone 5 to its carrier?

good day! so what happened to my iphone 5 is that, before it was stock on searching while it was on ios 7 and it can't detect any sim card at all, so i went to a repair shop here in abu dhabi UAE to fix it, so a pakistani technician put and tried his sim card to my phone and restored it, so what happen next is, I thought my phone is already fixed by him because the NO SIM is already showing on my phone but when I started to put my sim, it said that SIM NOT VALID (THE SIM CARD THAT YOU CURRENTLY HAVE INSTALLED IN THIS IPHONE IS FROM THE CARRIER THAT IS NOT SUPPORTED UNDER THE ACTIVATION POLICY THAT IS CURRENTLY ASSIGNED BY THE ACTIVATION SERVER. THIS IS NOT A HARDWARE ISSUE WITH THE IPHONE. PLEASE INSERT ANOTHER SIM CARD FROM A SUPPORTED CARRIER OR REQUEST THAT THIS OPHONE BE UNLOCKED BY YOUR CARRIER.) please help me to fix my iphone,, because now im using It only as an ipod.

Ask the carrier that it’s locked to if they’ll unlock it. Nobody else can.

  • HT4623 How to unlock iphone 3g(cannot detect carrier sim card)

    My 3g iphone when hooked to iTunes gives this message.The Sim Card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported.The iPhone is not
    currently setup to work with carrier you're attempting to use.Please insert another Sim Card from a supported carrier or request that the iPhone
    be unlocked.I tried several other carrier Sim Cards.The same message appears.Please send me a solution on how to settle this matter.I can only use
    Malaysian carrier Sim Cards,Thank you.

    The iPhone is locked to a different carrier. Only that carrier and authorize unlocking so you can use the iPhone with other carriers, so you will have to contact that original carrier and ask if you qualify for unlocked and if so what their procedure is.

  • How to unlock iphone 4s as my carrier would not do atleast for 3-4 months?  is officialiphoneunlock.co.uk any good?

    can any one used this website as it says official.

    It is NOT official.  It is a hack.
    The ONLY place that can unlock an iphone legiimately is the carrier to which it is locked.  No one else AT ALL can legitmately unlock it.  No one.  At all.  ONLY the carrier to which it is locked.

    how can i factory unlock my iphone 5c? its carrier is atnt and i want to be able to use it in south america using a gsm sim

    "Factory unlock" would mean that the iPhone would have come from Apple unlocked. You mean "officially unlocked", meaning the unlocking has been approved by the carrier. Here are AT&T's official requirements for unlocking an iPhone:

    how to unlock iphone 1st gen and it be like an ipod touch

    To activate your phone, you need a SIM card from the carrier to whom it's locked.  The SIM needn't be active, but it needs to be present, nonetheless. 
    There's no way around this step.

    how to unlock iPhone 5

    If you are asking how to unlock an iPhone 5 so it can be used on a
    different carrier, you must contact the wireless carrier that the iPhone is
    locked to and ask if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
    If you are asking how to unlock an iPhone that is locked due to entering
    wrong password too many times, connect it to the computer you sync with
    and use iTunes on that computer to restore the iPhone.
    If neither of the above is what you are asking, please give more information
    as to what you what to do.

    RajaRani is correct. The only CDMA carrire you can use a Verizon iPhone 5 on is Verizon. You can use it on whater GSM carrier you like. Note that you will most likely only get 3G speeds.

    How to unlock Iphone in india

    AT&T can only unlock a phone that is locked to them. There is no indication that Sukhbir had an iPhone that was locked to AT&T, though it was possible.
    And no, if the iPhone is officially unlocked by the carrier, there will be no problem from Apple or anyone else for using that iPhone with any other carrier, nor will the phone relock if restored or upgraded. The only problems come if the user jailbreaks the iPhone to unlock it.

  • HT4759 How to unlock iPhone 5c

    How to unlock iPhone 5c ..

    how are companies like Walmart and Metro PCS saying all these phones can be unlocked for the consumers if it can only be done a specific way
    Because the phones can indeed be unlocked. It just has to be done by the carrier, no one else. T-Mobile has stated they will unlock the phone after 40 DAYS OF SERVICE. So what Walmart and Metro PCS is saying is true. The unlock can only be done a specific way. No carrier in their right mind is going to give you a phone at reduced price, allow you to unlock it, and go somewhere else with your service. The provider has to recoup their cost for the device.
    You bought the phone from T-Mobile, you need to follow their rules.
