    How can you unlock a iphone4s sprint for a family member in russia? i sold it to them but when they took it back to russia is locked them out as if someone has stolen the phone.

    Contact Sprint to see if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
    Only the wireless carrier to which the iPhone is locked can unlock it.

  • 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 i can unlock iphone 5 sprint without zipcode

    Hello.
    I bought the iPhone 5 in Russia.
    But it is blocked on the operator sprint.
    At connection it to the computer, he asks to enter from me billing  zipcode and the last 4 digits of ssn.
    To me the zipcode as is known, that who bought it in America sent me it in a box which received from apple store.
    The person which Nethaniel Teigman zipcode specified bought him in America upon purchase 75252 (it is specified on a box).
    But this person refuses to provide me the last 4 digits of ssn.
    Please clean check a zipcode and last 4 digits of ssn for the iPhone 5 imei  990002292452065 SERIAL: F17JJ4A0F8GJ
    For possibility of carrying out activation of my iPhone which I bought.

    Since the iPhone is locked to Sprint, only Sprint can unlock it.
    Contact the seller and get him to unlock it. It is very unlikely that
    he would provide your part of his SSN as that would open him up to
    all sorts of mischief and fraud. If he will not contact Sprint to get the
    iPhone unlocked, return the iPhone to him and get your money back.
    Only Sprint can unlock the iPhone and you do not meet the requirement
    so you will have to get the original owner to help.

    Not precisely true. Both Sprint and Verizon will unlock the GSM portion of the phone for their own customers for use outside of the U.S. Its not unlocking in the truest sense, perhaps but it can be useful.

  • How do I unlock voice activation on iphone

    How do I unlock voice activation on iPhone 4

    Hi Kilted Tim, thank you for your quick response.
    Yup, I've had the unlimited plan for about 4-5 years, and I do everything I can to keep from losing it, for obvious reasons.
    As you advise, I've been using the iphone in airplane mode with wifi activated which works fine when I am in wifi range. But of course when I'm out and about I want to use my data roaming for internet, maps, skype, whatever so I take it out of airplane mode.
    The trouble is that I get incoming calls and am charged international rates even when I dont answer. I havent looked lately but I think AT&T charges me for one minute even for unanswered incoming calls.
    Any ideas?
    Many thanks!

  • How do I unlock an iPhone 4 with iOS 7 and bypass the activation lock?

    How do I unlock an iPhone 4 with iOS 7 and bypass the activation lock? I can't find the previous owner and I really want to use my new iPhone, I did purchase it Second-Handed.and now I'm stuck. Ive tried recovery mode and nothing still restores and asks me the same thing. Been working on this forever- Please Help!

    If you want to risk your money, fine. 
    To answer your questions
    Is this just an iOS 7 feature?
    Yes, Activation Lock is an iOS 7 feature.
      Could you not restore the device to an earlier version?
    No, you cannot downgrade your iOS device.
    That may mean jailbreaking, I'm not sure.
    Jailbreaking is not supported by Apple or this forum.
    Or what about replacing the motherboard?
    There are no user serviceable parts on an iPhone.

  • How do i unlock my Sprint iphone5 with IOS 7.4 0 to use any network here in the U S?

    How can i unlock my Sprint iphone5 with IOS 7.4.0 to be compartable with other service providers here in the U S?

    You can't. Sprint phones can be unlocked ONLY for use on non US carriers. They can not be used on any US carrier other than Sprint. If you want to use a different carrier in the US, sell the phone and buy one you can use.

  • How do I unlock an iphone 5 with Sprint. The SIM is in and Sprint gave me the unlock code, but what are the steps to unlock it?

    How do I unlock an iphone 5 with Sprint 15.1 at IOS 7.0.6 IMEI 99 000320 012095 0 .
    The SIM is in and Sprint gave me the unlock code, but what are the steps to unlock it?

    There is no such thing as an unlock code.   Sprint may have processed the unlock, and then requested you restore the iPhone using iTunes to complete it. But that's it. There is no code to enter, and nowhere to enter it any way.

  • I got an iphone from Hong Kong which is locked one. Can anyone explain me what does a locked iphone means. How do I use it in India now, with my own sim card. How do I unlock it???

    I got an iphone from Hong Kong which is locked one. Can anyone explain me what does a locked iphone means. How do I use it in India now, with my own sim card. How do I unlock it???

    If your iPhone is locked to a wireless provider, only that wireless provider
    can unlock it. Contact the wireless provider in Hong Kong to see if they
    offer unlocking and if you qualify.
    If your iPhone is locked to an AppleID that you do not know, return it for
    a refund as it is useless. Only the person whose AppleID was used for
    activation can remove the lock. There is no workaround for Activation Lock.
    If neither of the above is what you are facing, provide more detail so someone
    may offer a solution.

  • I am locked out of my iPod touch and i can't restore it as it asks for my password which i don't know how do i unlock it?

    I am locked out of my iPod and it says i cannot restore or back up due to me needing to unlock it and obviously i don't have my password. Please help, how do i unlock it?

    Options for when an iOS device gets locked because of forgotten password:
    Restore (and reset password) on your device by connecting it to the last computer to which it was connected:
    iTunes: Backing up, updating, and restoring iOS software - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    If you cannot connect it to the computer to which the device was last connected you will have to use recovery mode to completely reset the device, losing all data:
    iOS: Unable to update or restore - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808 - recovery mode (e.g., cannot connect to computer last used to sync device, iTunes still asks for a password)
