HT1937 How do i know my iphone Carrier, i want to have it Unlocked?

hi Guys, I really need your help on how i can Know my Iphone carrier before i can have it Unlocked?
PHONE DETAILS
MODEL: iPHONE 4S
IMEI:    012539005999084
will really apprecaite your Help  

Posting the IMEI of the device to a public forum is not smart.
Why would anyone purchase a device without knowing what carrier it is locked to?  Not all carriers offer unlocking.  Most that do offer unlocking require that the person requesting the unlock be a customer in good standing.

  • How do I know the iphone 5 I want to purchase is factory? unlocked?

    how can I tell the iPhone 5 I want to purchase is factory unlocked?

    If you take out an ad in the paper, you generally have to provide an address, which the paper should be checking for legitimacy and keeping on file.
    If you sell something on ebay, there is at least a dispute mechanism.
    craigslist is completely un-vetted. You can use it if you like. As far as I'm concerned, it's the wild-west of the Internet. Anything goes, no-one is held accountable. Sure, you can meet someone in broad daylight in a public place... no garauntee that the phone isn't jailbroken, or hacked, or stolen. At the moment, stolen only matters if it's a CDMA phone, provided you don't mind being charged with receiving stolen property if it gets traced to you.
    Hopefully, that will change with the new stolen phone registry that's in the works. Still wouldn't do business on craigslist, though. Maybe I'm just old and crotchety, but I can tell you for sure that no-one there will rip me off.

  • I have a brand new iPhone 4GS from Bell Carrier, I want to have it unlock for my Roger's carrier, is this possible?

    I have my step-son's iPhone 4GS from Bell Carrier, he upgraded his phone, I have a 4G, and I contacted Bell in order to have my phone unlocked so I can replace my phone with the 4GS with my present carrier of Roger's. Bell customer service informed me that they are no permitted to unlock iPhone and directed me to Apple.
    I am a bit confused, these are very good phones and now I cannot use it because it is locked with a carrier, obviously the phone is paid for if Bell offered the free upgrade. Why can I not be able to use this phone and put my SIM card from Roger's and use it, instead we are disposing of good equipment that is obviously bad for the environmnent.
    It is very simple, again I believe Bell is monopolizing, they want me to take this phone and get a plan with them, however, the story is that Roger's originally unlock the iphone for $50, and I bought a Bell SIM car dr $25.00, but I cannot pay Bell to do the same.
    Can Apple authorize the unlock of this phone when the carrier refuses to do?

    Apple does not unlock phones. Only the original cellular provider, in this case Bell, can authorize unlocking. They are passing the buck for their decision to not provide unlocking.

  • How could i know my iphone 5c warranty provided by the carrier or the apple it self?

    How could i know my iphone 5c warranty provided by the carrier or the apple it self?

    Bcoz im having the problem regarding the network service. My phone shows No Service and keep on searching for network. Before, i use 'android' phone and theres no issue on coverage problem at the same place. Compare to the other iphone, theres no problem with the same network which shows 2 or 3 bars. Mine is totally 'No Service'.So, i changed my sim to a new sim, but still the problem happened. I started to restore my phone and nothing changed. Is that problem cause by the antenna of the phone? I bought my iphone at normal handphone shop. Since the problem occur, I sent my phone to the Apple Authorised Resselers for the warranty claim. But sadly they told me the warranty provided by the carrier although i didnt buy it through the carrier. So i sent it to the carrier to claim warranty and they adviced me that it will takes 14 working days. They told me that they will fix it by repair my iphone. Will i get 1 to 1 exchage for the warranty just because of that problem? Apple, please help me coz its the first time im using ios phone.

  • Plz how can i know m iphone blocked or not

    Plz how can i know m iphone blocked or not

    It isn't clear what you mean by "blocked" -- that term is usually used to mean that you have put a block on a caller so that your phone doesn't ring when that caller attempts to call you. If you mean activation locked, the section titled "How do I check for activation lock before purchasing a used device" in the following link may help: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5818
    If that isn't what you mean, please reply with more details.

  • Hi how do i know if my photo/contact n video have been sync

    hi how do i know if my photo/contact n video have been sync.i cant seem to find it. i can only find my app n voice recording

    What "photo/contact n video "?
    Synced from what?  Iphone?  Ipod? Ipad?  other device?
    Photos and vids taken with iphone are not part of the sync process at all.  You import them as you would with any digital camera.
    Contacts will be synced to the program that you chose when setting up syncing (Outlook/Addrss Book).
    Perhaps you should review the manual:

  • HT201365 How do I know which one of my app ids have locked this device?

    How do I know which one of my app ids have locked this device?
    I have 4 differnt iCloud account in my business and recently I tried to reset one of my six iPhones...is there a way to find out which app id was used on my device to lock it?

    Try to Login to all your iCloud Account one by one and then from Find My iPhone device list you will find all your devices which is associated with that Apple Id. If you have all your other iPhones with you and in working condition and connected to Internet then try to play a sound on that device from Find My iPhone to make sure it is not that device which is Locked after Restore  and the other option is Remove all your Device from your Account in iCloud.com Do not select the option of Erase or Lost Mode and once you removed all your devices from All your Apple iCloud Account Restart that iPhone once and this time you should not be asked for any Apple Id or Password to unlock your Device.

  • How do I sync my iPhone 3g with iPad I have iCloud on both devices

    How do I sync my iphone 3g with ipad I have icloud on both devices

    An iCloud email account is an IMAP account. With an IMAP account, all server stored mailboxes are kept synchronized with the server with each email client used to access the account. Unless you have changed the Mailbox Behaviors with the account settings on each device, the account's Drafts, Sent Mailbox, and Deleted Mailbox are stored on the server with each device. Any user created mailboxes are also stored on the server.
    On each device, go to Settings > iCloud. Contacts and Calendars need to be turned on for over the air syncing.
    To have iMessages synced with each device, check this link.

    How can I text non iPhone users now that I have imessage?

    "Settings > Messages > Send as SMS = "On""
    That is only for sending SMS if the iMessage user is not available via wifi or data.
    If sending text to non-iphone user, that setting does nothing.
