How to unlock Iphone4?? PlEASE READ

Hey guys
I have bought an Iphone4 from new zealand. All the phones brought from New Zealand are UNLOCKED. But then I had to get my phone replaced (from apple Australia) because my home button was not working well. It was all good till here, because i got a new iphone! but..when i brought this phone to South Korea to use, i was able to turn on the phone but wasnt able to use it because phone had the carrier lock!
Apple should not have sent me the phone that has the carrier lock! don't everyone agree?
I came Korea to find a job but my mobile is not working, what should i do?
Does anyone know how to unlock? or do you know what would apple do in this kind of situation?
I have rang apple korea, vodafone nz, bright point nz and australia from yesterday till today, and I am losing my patients and costing me fortunes to ring overseas!

If you have iOS 5 on there, there is no way to unlock it. I suggest calling Apple Customer Relations and explain the situation to them. Maybe they will give you an unlocked one.

    I have managed to  lock the landscape orientation on my iphone 3 - any ideas as to how I unlock it please?

    Im not aware that you can lock your screen in landscape so I'm assuming you have locked it in portrait and want to allow it to ne seen landscape, therefore double click the Home button, swipe the icons to the right, you will see an icon with a circle-arrow. That is your screen orientation lock.
    Assuming again you have iOS5 have a look at the following for more help, page 21

  • How to unlock a locked read-only .txt

    On my Macbook Pro I'm trying to edit a .txt file inside a device/external hard drive(it's under the Devices tab in finder) I've tried get info, looked under general and the Locked box was unchecked, I looked under Sharing & Permissions and under Privilege it says Read & Write by my name, but it also says You can only read under the tab. I open the .txt file and I click the unlock option, and a message comes up and says: The file "Plugins.txt" is on a read-only volume and cannot be unlocked. Is there any way I can fix this to edit the file?

    If you can highlight and copy the text, just paste it elsewhere.
    If you command shift 4 and draw a marquee around the text and click, it make png image file on the desktop, which you can use Preview to change it to jpg.
    There are free optical character reader softwares over at MacUpdate.com that then can convert the image text into regular plain ASCII text to paste into any program you please.
    Since your running 10.8, you first have to System Preferences > Security > set downloads to "Anywhere" to accept software from sources you trust.
    You can try opening the file with the free TextWrangler, or saving the above text into a the same named file with same extension.

  • HT201328 How to unlock iphone4 without updating to ios6

    I have received unlock confirmation from ATT. However, I would like to unlock my iphone4 withou upating to IOS6 because I am worry that iphone 4 will get slower after the updating. Anyone knows how?
    Thanks

    No matter what kind of unlocking you mean you cannot do it without a computer.
    Carrier unlock can only be done by the carrier it is locked to.
    If the screen is locked you also need a computer: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212

  • How to unlock iphone4s

    hi.. i recently had my iphone 4s version 5.0.1 purchased in US
    and i was unable to use it in india..
    i went to mobile outlet they are charging huge to unlock it!
    How do i unlock it?
    What is the resonable price to unlock it?
    So one kindly help me....... The unlock phone is looking so sad unto me

    You cannot unlock the iPhone yourself, Apple does not unlock iPhones after purchase.  In the US AT&T unlocks iPhones for subscribers who have contracts for a specified length of time, but not for new customers.

  • HT1937 how to unlock iphone4 04.12.01?

    ?

    If it was hacked to unlock it (which is implied by you saying 04.12.01) then a carrier unlock won't work, and, if it's hacked, you can't get help in an Apple-hosted forum.

    They told you they won't unlock it because you are leaving?
    how can I unlock my ohone from my carrier.
    The carrier & ONLY the carrier can unlock the phone.
    Did you purchase it at full price?
    Are you still under contract (iPhone was subsidized)?

  • How to unlock account on read only replica (DS 5.2 p4)

    We are planning to turn on password policy to lock account after user failed to provide correct password after n times and the account will be lock forever unless administrator is to reset the password retry count.
    We implemented password policy with role and cos so that the policy only imposed on end users but not administrators. The password policy works fine.
    We understand that for DS 5.2 p.4, the password retry count is per instance, so the account lock is per instance. The problem we now encountered is at account unlock. We developed a function to reset the password retry count in order to unlock the account. It works fine in our test env. However, in production, we have 2 masters and 4 replicas and our replicas are all read only, all update is referred to the 2 masters. Now, when we update the master setting 0 to the password retry count, the reset is not populated to the replicas and when we try update the replica directly, the update get referred to the master and hence the attribute on the replica remains the same.
    Is there a way to unlock the account that got locked at the read only replica?

    As I recalled the way to unlock an account is to reset password using admin account. I think Ludovic once mentioned that in one of his post.
    If I were right here in this point, you should reset password which will be replicated to your read-only account and reset the counter to be 0.
    BTW, just found Ludovic's original post link:
