HT201270 will carrier update on iOS6 lock my phone if my iphone is unlocked?

Just curious to know if this will cause my unlocked iPhone 4S to be locked onto my carrier when I do the carrier update.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Not if it is legitimately unlocked. If it was hacked or jailbroken, it will probably brick it.

Sounds like your iPhone was hacked/modified/jailbroken to work
with wireless carrier other than the one it was purchased from. The
update has relocked it to the original carrier. Contact the original
carrier to see if they offer unlocking and if you qualify - only the
carrier to which the iPhone is locked can unlock it.
What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>Carrier?
Be advised that the previous modifications to change from original carrier
to your current Carrier may have rendered the software unable to be
officially unlocked and may prevent future updates.
Reverting to a previous version of iOS is not supported. Even it it was,
such reversion would not solve your problem because the iPhone has become
relocked to the original wireless provider and that status will not change
no matter what iOS version is installed.

Any idea when apps will be updated to utilize the new screen size on iphone 5?

any idea when the apps will be updated to utilize the new screen size on iphone 5?

Don't know what "the apps" are; they won't happen all at once. It will happen for an individual application when the developer chooses to make a new version available.

I've broken my iPhone and have put my sim card in my old iPhone 3. If I plug my old iPhone 3 into my computer, will it update the iPhone 3 with everything that is on my phone that is now broken, or will it 'update' iTunes with what was on the old iPhone?

Plug your phone into the wall charger for at least 30 minutes...make sure you have a sim card in the phone...then:
Leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.
Make sure you have no anti-virus software running or any firewalls...turn all of that stuff off.

Ipad will not update to ios6

first generation ipad, in settings, software updates, shows up to date. not updating to ios6. i connected to my macbokpro theough itunes, still shows not update. tells me to come back at a future date.

iOS 6 is not compatible with the first gen iPad, it can only be installed on the iPad 2 and 3

HT201210 iPhone 4 will not update to iOS6 - new software keeps re-downloading but never installing

I was syncing my iPhone, left it, I came back upstairs and my iPhone was wiped saying it needs to be plugged into iTunes. I tried several times to update and install after downloading the almost 1G file and all that happens is that the file disapears and iTunes wants to download the file again. I do the same process again and it did appears and wants me to download it again. The iPhone 4 never updates.
The phone is wiped and I can't use it. Total brickhouse.
I have updated the iTunes software and I still have the problem. I originally never even asked for the update but somehow after syncing the phone it turns into a brick.
Never had a problem with the iPhone but this is a serious issue. I do not have the cash to buy a new iPhone and I do use this phone for personal and business verntures. I don't even have a house phone because the iPhone has been so reliable (now i may have to reconsider that idea).
Any help?

For whatever reason the iPhone was in a recovery loop and it would not come out of it. Took it to thei iPhone store and they get it to fork. something about "DCU" ING the phone or something .
Lost all the data as I was not able to back up the phone before the crash.
so is life.

TS1702 I have the iPhone 3S and have the update to ios6 on my phone. Any reason NOT to update? I've heard there are issues ...

I have the iPhone 3gs. Any reason NOT to update to iOS6? I've heard there were glitches.

The iOS 6 is great, but really is there some issues with some people. This is your choice, but i would suggest to update only when the new version of the iOS 6 (probably the 6.0.1) comes out.

HT4623 my ipad keeps saying that is up to date with iso 5, it will not update to ios6?

If you're using the original iPad, that's correct.

HT1414 My Ipad 2 will not update to ios6. Instead, it had an unknown error. Then it went into restore mode 2 times. :( I have two iPads, both have been really problems.

I was on line 4 hours last night. So far two hours tonight with the second iPad. This one downloaded quickly, when throught the entire upgrade, then at the end said there was an unknown error. I did what iTunes said to do and restored the iPad. It went through the restore and at the end said the restore failed. Then it said to restore again. I did....same problem

I'm experiencing the same problem.
Whenever the itunes usb lead screen disappears and the apple logo appears it fails to reboot.
It's getting power ok, it's just not doing anything.
If I can't get an answer here it's a visit to the apple shop tomorrow.

Why do I depend on a carrier for 10.2.1 update if I bought the phone from an electronics shop, unlocked

I am mad on Blackberry for this, because I don't undestand why !
I bought the my phone, a Z10 from an electronics shop, so it is unlocked and not dependable on any carrier, and I paid premium.
The first time I turned on the phone, BB Link did update the OS, though some minor stuff.
Now I see carriers around the world are pushing the 10.2.1 update to their phones but what about me ? I do have a sim card of a carrier (Vodafone) wich did not release the update yet, but WHY DO I need to wait for them to push the update ? Why can't I just update the phone trough Blackberry Link ?
Is there a good reason why the update can only be made if the carrier the phone runs on make it available ?
I find this very stupid !

BlackBerry has never pushed updates direct to the user, always from the carrier.
So, no, there is no public documentation on that.

When will be update for ios 8 would be available on iphone in pakistan

Can u tell me plz

iOS 8 will be available in the fall. I see no reason you should not be able to download it there unless your ISP blocks access to the apple update servers.
Keep in mind, though, that the iPhone is not available in Pakistan and there is no support for it there.

No one's been able to do that yet. And people a lot smarter than you (and me) have tried.
The basic way malware works is that it runs a program on the device. However, the iOS does not allow any program to be downloaded or installed onto the device, unless they are from the App Store. And Apple thoroughly checks all apps submitted by app-developers before allowing them onto the App Store.
In essence, imagine that there is a fortress that has absolutely only one entrance; a guarded front gate. And the guards will only let in people that have proper identification. Without that identification, they will not open the gate.
The fortress is the iOS device. The guards are the operating system. The identification is the App Store.
You didn't come from the App Store? Then you can't come in. It's as simple as that.
