AT&T has not as of yet announced any plans to unlock an iPhone that was purchased as locked to them. Whether or not they will do so in the future, only AT&T would know, and they probably will not say unless and until they're ready to make an official announcement. There is nothing Apple can do for you in this matter unless you are still within the timeframe for returning the iPhone.
Regards.

i have bought my Iphone 4s from USA and right now i am in India. How can i repair my phone in INDIA. when i contacted the image store they said, they will not repair it. friends can you suggest any possible solution
Because an iPhone warranty is only good in the country of purchase. You will have to take it back to the USA or send it to someone there to have them take it to an Apple store.

if i bought an Iphone 6 from usa (contract free,T-mobile) can i use in srilanka (outside the usa) ?
and to activate it should i have t-mobile sim ?As Ethmoid says, it is still a CDMA phone as I told you earlier, and it will not work with t-mobile. Even if Sprint unlocked the phone, it would only unlock the GSM side for international use. They will not unlock the GSM side for domestic use in the US.

I've bought a iphone 5c from USA but the headset is not working properly its still in warranty,can i go for replacement of headset??
Since it is only the headset that is the problem and not the iPhone it would be better to just buy a new set and not let yourself be frustrated over it. If you send anything to your sister before the one-year warranty is over, include the headset so she can exchange it at an Apple store.

If you purchased an unlocked iPhone, sold in the US only by Apple themselves directly, contact your carrier and ask if they support iPhones and if so just sign up. If you purchased a locked iPhone, which you would get if you purchased from anyone other than Apple, then you would have to contact the cell carrier to whom the phone is locked and ask if they would unlock the iPhone.

i bought a iphone 5s from gumtree. While trying to activate it i realised there was an account linked to it through an apple id. it doesnt say the phone is in lost mode and it still has warranty. am i able to get a fix from apple?
unfortunately - no
if the device is on ios 7.1 or above there's two things.
1) the device may be restored to factory settings - but the phone can't be activated. imei unlock is different to Iphone activatio. - your friend unlocked it to use any sim in any country. iOS 7 forces you to restore the phone and reimpit the original icloud login. This can only be solved if you a)forgot the login/changed it, and can prove to apple youre the owner; b) to get the original owner to deauthorize his account associated with the phone, on his/her computer.
2)if there's also a Passcode lock on the phone, and the last registered sim doesn't work (in the case of a stolen phone) - then it's impossible for you to do anything, full security = restore will lead to activation lock immediately. There's no bypass to it, the fake videos online only allow a bypass if the device was a 'jailbrokem' one - which would invalidate apple trying/ever wanting to help you.
if you know who the phone belonged to previously (usually comes up with the icloud username on it) then you can ask them to deactivate it.
otherwise, you have what we call - a brickb- won't even work as a super iPod touch
my iphone was stolen on sat in prague - white, 32 gb iphone 5 - if it's mine, I'll have it back please just incase -
I did not update my iPad 3 with the last update, will that affect me updating to IOS 6?
I did not update my iPad 3 with the last update, will that affect me updating to the new IOS 6? Will I get all the updates I missed in the previous update if I update to IOS 6. If not, tell me where to go to get the last update before I update to IOS 6. I thought I had time before this new one came out. Thanks for any help I get.
You can update directly to iOS 6 now. Not updating to iOS 5.1.1 does not matter. If you have updated the iPad before, you know what to do.

We bought an iphone 5s 6 days ago. Today my daughter dropped it and cracked the screen! We did not buy insurance. She has heard that there is a 30 day warranty period where if anything happens to the phone, they will replace it. Anyone know if there is any truth to this? We bought the phone at the Apple Store.

In my opinion, $99 to protect a $649 to $849 device for up to two years for up to two damage occurances, with only a $79 deductible per incident, is a good deal.
Two damage replacements that cost out of pocket a total of $257, when a single out-of-warranty repalcement costs $269? That saves you $281 if you need the protection. Additionally, that $99 would have given you a full extra year of normal hardware coverage, and two full years of phone support instead of only 90-days free. After the first 90 days, it costs $19 per issue to get assistance over the phone from Apple.
Hopefully, on your next iPhone purchase, you will consider this current situation and take advantage of the AppleCare Plus. -
Would like to suspend the at&t data plan I signed up for when I bought the miniIpad because I will not use it during overseas trip how do I go about it? Can I just cancel and sign back on when I need it again?
Contact AT&T to see if they offer this. As far as I know (and I could
be misinformed), your AT&T will automatically renew every month unless
you let AT&T know you do not want it to renew. I believe this can be
done via AT&T website or phone call to Customer Service. I suggest
you contact AT&T as soon as possible to get it straightened out rather
than wait until right before your trip when you will already have enough
to deal with. -
I bought an iPhone 5 from the Apple store with a new Sprint contract in Sept. 2012. I would like to know if I port my number to T-mobile and pay off my Early Termination fee with Sprint, will my iPhone 5 will be unlocked to use with T-mobile network?
As Ethmoid says, it is still a CDMA phone as I told you earlier, and it will not work with t-mobile. Even if Sprint unlocked the phone, it would only unlock the GSM side for international use. They will not unlock the GSM side for domestic use in the US.

I bought an iphone 3g from amazon its unlocked i need to update my phone to i05 will it relock my phone?
Iphone 3g will not update to ios 5. It is not compatible.
If the iphone is hacked/jailbroken/unofficially unlocked then it will be locked after any update/restore. -
I bought an iphone 5 from apple store in USA, can i use it overseas?
i bought an iphone 5 from apple store in USA, can i use it overseas, eg, China,?
Yes, but you will be using it in China with the international roaming feature.
There are no unlocked iPhone 5's being sold in the US at present so you can't use it with a local nano sim card. There will also be LTE frequency compatibility issues too. -
i have bought my iphone 5 from UK and now residing in USA. Although my carrier (Ultra Mobile) provides 4G service i only get 3G speed. Also icon "3G" appears on top part of my screen. My model is MD297B/A. Pls suggest to enable 4G on my phone
It is more than likely the inability of the UK phone to support the US phone bands. You will probably be stuck with 3G and will never be able to get LTE. Also, your warranty is only good in the UK. You might be better of to try and sell that device to someone in the UK and purchase a phone in the US that you can get full service with.

I want to buy Iphone 4S or Iphone 5 from USA and ship it to South Africa, will i have carrier problems?
If you buy a phone from Apple online from USA you must have a credit card with a US address and have it shipped to that same address. If you chose a carrier it will be locked to that carrier. You must buy an UNLOCKED phone to use outside of the US, for the unsubsidized price. For unlocked phones you don't need to choose a carrier. the iPhone 5 is not yet available unlocked; only the 4S is sold as unlocked by Apple.
If you buy from the US Apple site you must return it to the US for warranty service.
LTE is the "next generation" cellular network standard. It is supported in the US by Verizon and AT&T.
