how to use iphone 4s from japan locked by softbank?

Ocean20 answered your question, don't waste your time contacting Softbank as Chris CA suggested. There are no officially unlocked iPhones sold in Japan & none of the Japanese carriers...which include Softbank...offer official unlocking for the iPhone. There is no way to get any Japanese iPhone officially unlocked.

There is not a thing you can do except get the Apple ID and password of the previous owner...that iPhone is in Activation Lock mode and cannot be unlocked any other way. The Activation Lock is an anti-theft protection that cannot be bypassed. You very well may have a stolen iPhone so try contacting the who you bought it from and get your money back.

HT201328 My iPhone is from Japan and I want to activate it here in the Philippines because I'm living here. I have lost the original SIM from Softbank and replaced it with a new SIM card from Globe. How can I use the SIM card from Globe?

You cannot. The iPhone is locked to Softbank, and only they can unlock it. Problem is that Softbank will NOT unlock the phone, as they do not offer iPhone unlocking.
Buy an iPhone in the Phillipines.
PS Before you go on a rant at Apple, be aware that Apple does NOT unlock phones and they do not set unlocking policies. The carriers (Softbank in this case) set the unlocking policy.

The only way to use an iPhone from Japan in India is to pay your Japanese carrier for international roaming. Japanese iPhones can not be unlocked.

You can NOT unlock it. Only the carrier it is locked to can legally authorize unlocking it and the Japanese carriers will not do so.
In order to be using it previously with a non Japanese carrier, the phone had to be hacked to illegally unlock it. You can not get help here.
Buy a new phone you can use.

If you have a Japanese iPhone and are using it with any carrier other than Softbank or AU, then it was hacked, since as the others have said neither of those carriers unlock iPhones. Therefore if you upgrade iOS or restore your iPhone, it will lock back to the original carrier and be unusuable with your current cell provider.
We cannot help you with jailbroken iPhones. You'll have to look elsewhere for further assistance.

Hii all, I just bought an used iphone 5c from an user and only after a few weeks realised that it got activation locked. He might be unaware of that. Is it possible to get back to him and unlock the device for me as i have not contacts with him presently.

Well first you need to sync your iPhone 4 with your Mac/PC so that it will transfer all your music, apps, podcasts, etc. Then sync your iPod Touch and the media you selected during the sync should be there on your iPhone. If you have difficulty in transferring media from iPhone to your computer, try softwares like TransCopy. They will help in transferring data from your iphone to your computer. Dont forget to check that all the transferred data is in the iTunes media folder so that the iTunes can locate the files. Link to Transcopy software :

I have an iphone 4 from japan it is locked with softbank

i have an iphone 4 from japan it is locked with softbank it was sent to me here in manila,philippines and i tried resetting it and after it was asking for the sim that was from the carrier. what should i do? i just want to activate it. ios 5.0.1 baseband 4.11.. i need help

The only way for the iPhone to be unlocked is for Softbank to unlock it .
They have it locked to their network because they will have subsidised the original purchase price
If you look here it looks as if Softbank do not offer unlocking

I'm using iphone 4 for japan version how can do it my iphone can use it in malaysia?

i'm using iphone 4 for japan version how can do it my iphone can use it in malaysia?isit just can use japan sim card only?

You can use your iPhone 4 in Malaysia with a Japanese sim card, but you'll need to enable the data roaming/international feature with your phone comapny/carrier in Japan to be able to use the phone.
Your other option is to get your phone unlocked by your phone comapny/carrier so that you can then insert local sim cards when you travel.
The only ones who can unlock your phone is your phone comapny/carrier in Japan so you need to contact them directly to ask them if they offer unlocking - if not then you are out of luck and have to use the data roaming method.

The phone is useless unless you can contact the previous owner. There is nothing anyone can do to help. If you are able to contact, the following contains instructions on what they need to do: iCloud: Activation Lock

I was planning to buy Iphone 4 32gb Japan locked here in Philippines.
Question is:
1. Can I still download apps from appstore?
2. Can I sync my IP to my desktop(ITunes) so I can add pictures/vids/songs?
3. What are the restrictions of a locked IP?
I just want to use it like ITouch.

You can also do all that with iPod touch.
You have been warned, so it's up to you to decide. Good luck.

Take it back to whomever you purchased it from and ask for a refund. There is no way to get past the "Activation Lock".
