How to unlock the SIM in activation mode for iPhone 4s

After Remote Erase iPhone 4s can not activate it anymore. Through WiFi it says try again later or through itunes, and through itunes it asks to unlock the SIM which i can't in activation mode. How do get out of this loop thanks

Take out the SIM card and insert it into another phone. Then deactivated the SIM lock and put it back into the phone you want to activate.

How to unlock the sim when abroad with my iPhone 5 ?

I have a iPHONE5 on contract with EE, the ontract is more than 2 years old. Last uear i contacted EE to unlock it so that i can change SIM when travelling. I was told that i would have received an email with instruction on how to do so and that i would have been charged a fee on my bill. I never received any email and left for Brazil with the telephone locked. This year i will go to Brazil again and will want to use a local Sim card. How can i do so? Now the tel is longer than 2 years on contract, so i should be abl;e to do it easily, Please let me know Thanks

https://myaccount.ee.co.uk/device-unlock/. or ring EE and speak to them, simple. I presume you are still in this country, do it now before going abroad, it should about ten days for an I-Phone, I believe.

The SIM card inserted in this iPhone does not appear to be supported.
The SIM card that you currently have installed in this iPhone is from a 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 iPhone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact Apple for more information.

Or if you've recently got the phone unlocked then you'll need to connect it to itunes and then do a fresh restore to unlock it ,although for most users simply connecting to itunes for few seconds did the trick.

How to unlock the SIM lock o2 UK

hi there,
about 3 years ago I bought an iPhone 3Gs. it was a second hand phone from CeX in UK. my wife has been using this phone until the contract have run out. then I have sent this phone to my sister in Poland but I have forgotten to remove the SIM lock. apparently, she wasn't able to do so for her own so she requested some kind of help. today I went to O2 Shop and asked to unlock the phone. I gave them an IMEI number. unfortunately, I've been told, they're not happy to help me as I wasn't the first owner... they suggested me to call Apple instead.
so, can anybody help me, please?
cheers, Marek

Apple do not unlock iPhones
Carriers lock them ,only the carrier can unlock them
For O2 to unlock an iPhone
It needs to be active on the UK network and that means in the UK
either under contract or being used on a PAYG sim

How to trigger the BIOS CRISIS Recovery mode for Thinkpad T61.

For any other laptop, there's a possibility to run a BIOS crisis recovery, by holding Win-B or Fn-B and a few other conditions, one can make the laptop to boot up from a USB floppy drive and restore BIOS even if it's not working. But it seems that it doesn't work for ThinkPads, or I don't know to trigger the mode.
Thank you in advance.

Your post was very helpful. It did the trick. The photos of the screens and etc. helped.
I am using a Toshiba laptop that came with Winddows 8.1 (64bit), which allegedly supports UEFI boot.
Initially, the boot failed and after trying different settings I recalled a statement that not all USBs work the same and results may vary. I tried another USB and your selections worke perfect.
I did not revert the BIOS settings and the machine boots properly to the normal login.
My need for a bootable USB is to boot the laptop if the hard drive fails. This allows to either re-image it or replace the hard drive and for re-image it. The key is the bootable media.
Thanks for your effort..!

How to fix the Blue Screen of Death for iPhone 5S?

I have an iPhone 5S and I never got water on it, dropped it, or inflicted any kind of damage upon it. But one day when I turned it on it kept getting this blue screen and then restarting CONSTANTLY. This is referred to as the Blue Screen of Death (BSOD). Does anyone know how to actually fix this problem besides just restoring the phone (I already tried that.)

Hi ..
If you restored the iPhone to factory settings and it still won't startup correctly, make a reservation at a Genius Bar.

How long should the installation of new software for iphone take. Mine has been downloading now for over 3 hours. I don't want to disconnect and lose my data.

How long should it take to update an I 4 phone to the new system. Mine has been going for 3.5 hours and is not finished, but I don't want to disconnect and lose my data.

Mine took about an hour or so but it mostly depends on your modem and processor speeds. You can check the progress by clicking your iphone on the left and then checking the download progress. As long as that is moving I would just leave it and wait but don't let your computer shut down.

How to get the US app store access for iPhone?

Hey. I moved to the US 6 months ago and I would like to connect with the US appstore with my iPhone.

How do I unlock the sim card if my iPhone 5 has not been activated?

I gave my iPhone 5 to my mom, so I restored it first (by going through Find my iPhone and deleting the phone and restoring it), and now my mom got a new nano sim card. When I enter it into the phone, it says "Your iPhone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable."
When I try to activate it through iTunes, it says "The SIM card inserted in this iPhone is PIN locked. Please enter the PIN code of your SIM card and connect your iPhone to iTunes again". But how do I enter the pin code if the phone is not activated? I don't see any option of unlocking the pin, I only see "Choose language", then "Choose WiFi", and then it attempts to activate but fails every time.
What do I do? Thanks for your help.

The term "factory unlocked" has no meaning. Your phone was not legitimately unlocked. Contact the carrier it is locked to and find out if you can get it unlocked.

Great question, AnnaBio. The iPhone 5 is already unlocked and can be used globally. Please let me know if you have additional questions.

My iphone 5 is in disabled status but when going through the recovery process it asks for the SIM pin but I cannot access the screen as the phone wont connect to the activation server not the screen to unlock the SIM. What do I do?

That's usually a symptom of a phone that was hacked or jailbroken to unlock it.
