How to unlock my iphone5S
hello, I have a this iPhone 5S and I want to unlock it because I currently live in argentina. How do I get this done through apple? Thanl you
If you mean carrier lock ,you do not get it done by Apple
Carriers lock iPhones when they are sold to their network
Only the carrier who locked the iPhone can unlock it ...Work out who they are and contact them to establish if they offer unlocking

You will need to speak with the Carrier (service provider) that the handset is locked to. Only they can release the phone.

How to Unlock my iphone5 Sprint? I want to use China Unicom USIM card
SN:F17JLKW3F8GH
Need your Help!Don't post information such as this on a public user forum. This is a public user to user forum for technical questions so nobody here will be able to help you and you are NOT addressing Apple here. If you want help, then you'll need to contact Sprint. They are the only ones that can help you.
However, Sprint is what is known as a cdma carrier and if their phones are like Verizon, then it is not locked. From the iPhone 4s version it was required that any cdma phone with a sim card portion for gsm use should be unlocked out of the box and this is the same for Verizon, which is the other cdma carrier. The sim card tray should be unlocked already, so get a key and open the sim card tray and insert and local sim card in the phone and it should detect a network in China and you can use the phone.
Other than this, if the phone is not unlocked, then you are out of luck and you won't be able to use it. You would need to contact Sprint directly to get the sim portion of the phone unlocked for use with the gsm network in China.
If you can't do this, then your only other alternative is to purchase a phone in China that you can use and will work with the Chinese networks.
Think before you buy next time and check that the phone is compatible and will work where you want to use it.
Other than this, then contact Sprint directly to see if they will unock it if it is in fact locked or buy a new phone. -
How to unlock my sprint iphone5 with the code provided
I have this iphone5 given by a friend. Sprint has offered an unlocking code supposedly allows me to use it internationally.
But i found nowhere to input such code, and the phone still doesn't recognize my chinese sim card. Could anyone help with this?There is no unlock code that can be used with an iPhone.

my brother have sent me a iphone5 in Bangladesh, now how to unlock the phone, because cellular not connect
Send it back to your brother & have him get it officially unlocked, because there is no way for you to do that.
Only the carrier an iPhone is locked to can authorize the phone's official unlocking, & most(if not all) will not authorize such unless your are a customer that used the phone on their network...obviously not you.
So, send it back to your brother & have him get it unlocked or return it for a refund. -
Hi

Al-Ameen.You need to contact the carrier to see if they offer unlocking and if you qualify. You may need to talk to your brother about this.

I wanted to know how to unlock my iphone, since I had to restore it and when it restarted, it appeared this message: "The SIM card que you currently have installed in this iphone is from a carrier that is not supported under the Currently actuvation policy that is assigned by the server activion. this is not a hardware issue with the iPhone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request que this iphone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact Apple for more information. "
I need help, I use my phone for everything enclusive to work. I appreciate if you can help. I'm from Brazil. My name and giullia.Did you purchase this device from Apple or an authorized reseller? It sounds as if you had a device that was jailbroken/hacked to operate on your carrier. Upon updating the iOS, it is now locked back to the original carrier the device was locked to.
Only the carrier the device is locked to can authorize an unlock. You will need to make contact with that carrier and see if they provide unlocking services, and if they do, if you qualify for an unlock. Otherwise, you are out of luck. One that carrier can take care of the unlocking. -
