I bougth an iphone 4s with sprint

I bougth an iphone 4s with sprint  on e-bay and i want to use on on other career,how can I unlock the phone?

You can't.  You purchased the wrong phone.  Sprint will unlock the GSM portion of the phone only for GSM carriers OUTSIDE the US, and only for current customers of Sprint.

  • 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 am using iphone 4S with sprint carrier with IOS 7 and has error 1394

    I am using iphone 4S with sprint carrier. It has IOS 7 and now I want to downgrade to IOS 6 and I have downloaded a firmware it is compatible with 4S. Now it shows error 1394 and I have tried to fix my host file in windows according to other forums in internet. But I haven't seen this line in my host file to change it
    "74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com" to "#74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com".
    PLease suggest me some solution for this problem

    There is no approved method to downgrade. Your attempt to load a non-standard iOS file is causing the error. If you want to use your phone, you are going to have to try and restore it to the latest iOS compatable for that device which is iOS 7.0.4, otherwise it will not work and you will continue to see the error. Apple is no longer signing anything below the current iOS, so it will never activate.

  • I found iPhone 4S with sprint server and can't activate it , how do i activate ??? Please help me

    Help me activate iPhone 4S with sprint server

    No, but turning it to the police would be the right thing to do.  You trying to activate the phone would be the same as they suspecitng you of stealing it.

  • I have an iPhone 4S with Sprint, I had to replace my last phone after the newest update killed my wifi button. Now my new phone won't get 3G at all. I have tried turning my phone off/on, resetting my networks, and turning airplane mode off and on.

    I have an iPhone 4S with sprint. I had to replace my phone after the new update killed my wifi button and wouldn't let me turn my phone off. Since I've had my new phone, I haven't been getting 3G. I have tried resetting my networks, Turing airplane mode off/on and restarting my phone. Nothing seems to work. Any info on what I should do next would be great.

    If you have set this phone up, then there would not necessarily be a solution here until you have been verify with the provider that everything is provisioned correctly on their end. Since the 3G comes from your cellular provider, if the settings are correct on the phone, then you should work with the carrier next.

  • I bought a unlocked canadian iphone 4s, i am going to me living in the usa can i use my unlocked iphone 4s with sprint?

    i am wondering if i can use my unlocked canadian iphone 4s in the states with sprint? can the cdma be unlocked so that any company that uses cdma can support it? or is the gsm the only one that can be unlocked and used with differnt carriers that support gsm?

    The ONLY way this could happen would be if the OP returned the phone within the first 30 days of purchase in the original country of purchase, then bought a new one in the US on the Sprint network.

  • IPhone service with Sprint

    I bought my iPhone from Apple and am using Sprint as my carrier. I am experiencing so many tower "issues", the phone is useless. Will my phone work with another carrier?

    CDMA phones are not unlocked to be used with another CDMA carrier.
    Although the iPhone 4S and iPhone 5 are "World" phones meaning they are a combination GSM/CDMA phone, the GSM side of the iPhone 4S and iPhone 5 activated with Sprint or Verizon and their CDMA network in the U.S. is unlocked or can be unlocked by the carrier, this is for use with a GSM carrier and SIM card in another country to avoid roaming charges when traveling internationally. Not possible to use the iPhone with a GSM carrier and SIM card in the U.S.

  • Apple Care+ for iPhone 4S (with Sprint)

    I also have an Apple Care+ question that I cannot seem to find the answer to. The carrier will be Sprint, however I don't believe that matters for my question.
    The Sprint representative that I was talking to the other day said that even though Apple Care + covers accidental damage (I have read the official product description) that it does not cover screen breakage. And that if you crack the glass screen you still have to either pay to have it replaced by a third party or purchase a new phone at the unsubsidized price. I found that comment interesting but I did not want to challenge her on the subject.
    I do not see anything in the Terms and Conditions that excludes the breaking of the screen.
    Did I miss that section in the Terms and Conditions? Is what she was telling me true? I see that as the #1 reason to purchase Apple Care+ for the unit.
    Thanks,
    Timm

    If you want to return your iPhone, you must do so through whoever you purchased the iPhone from. If that was someone other than an Apple Store, either online or physical, then that dealer's return policies will apply; Apple will have nothing to say about it. You may have to talk to Sprint in regards to your contract with them. I believe you have 30 days to return your phone and cancel your contract, but I'm not certain about Sprint.
    iTunes works fine under Windows on many, many systems, including Acer. Perhaps if you'll post details here, someone can help you sort things out. The thread you refer discusses an earlier version of iTunes and probably no longer applies even if that were the problem on your system, though I cannot say with certainty.  Note that if you are running Windows 7 Starter on your netbook, that version is reported to have problems with a lot of software, not just iTunes. Many people have installed and run iTunes quite successfully, though.
    they claim iTunes is a whole seperate brand from Apple computers they know nothing about
    I don't know who you talked to, but either there was a misunderstanding - the statement would apply perhaps to the iTunes Store, but not to iTunes as a program - or that person was an idiot. iTunes, the program, is most definitely an Apple product and should be supported fully by the Apple Store technical staff.

  • HT1688 Is it possible to trade in my perfect iphone 4s with sprint, for a Iphone 4s with AT&T? How/Were could i do this?

    I just got an iphone 4s traded to me from a freind for some audio equipment, unfortunately his carrier is sprint... and i have AT&T, is there any place i can take it to have it swapped for services or something of that nature?

    No. You could try to sell yours and buy a new one.

  • Trouble with Voicmail, Iphone 4 with sprint!

    When I try to delete my voicemails they keep returning. I have reset to factory settings and that did not help. I have also tried calling my voicemail and it says that the messages are not available. I can not get any new voicemails due to my box being full! Please, any help would be appreciated!!

    For anyone else looking at this and similar postings - turning your phone off and on (hard off, not just to sleep) will eventually bring up the voicemail.  This problem began when iOS 5.1 was rolled out, but I find it hard to believe this is an Apple problem, since it's only  happening on Sprint.
    I'm getting really tired of it too; been a Sprint customer since 1998 but this is the last straw, if they don't fix it I'm switching, even if it means breaking my contract.  The slow download speeds are one thing, but tapping to hear voicemail has been a basic feature of phones for a decade.  No reason this shouldn't work now.

  • A few days ago i ordered applecare  for my iphone 5 at sprint. i bought it along with my iphone at the same time. is it supposed to ship at the same time or is the applecare  gonna ship a few days later? i already got my iphone but no applecare ! i called

    i got apple care + a few days ago with a iphone 5 at sprint. are they suppost to ship at the same time? i got my iphone first and i havnt gotten mt applecare+ yet. is it a package or just a email? i called people at sprint and some of them said it was just an email.

    UPDATE: I did receive the following 2 items in the mail today regarding my Apple Care +:
    1.) Two (2) purchase invoices for Apple Care + on our new iPhone 5s. One for my iPhone 5 and one for my wife's iPhone 5.
    2.) Two (2) certificates (e.g. a contract) detailing the terms & conditions of the Apple Care + coverage on our iPhone 5s including all the phone numbers for each individual state in the USA that has exemptions/exceptions.
    The only phone number provided for the award winning teams is the only they always provide:
    1-800-APL-CARE (800-275-2273)

  • HT4623 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 netwo

    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.

  • HT4993 i have bought iphone 5 with no cotract,and activate it with Sprint sim card,I am outside US now , and the phone can't be activate with non sprint sim card. i dont have sprint acount because i bought it from private store,what can i do ?

    Hello,
    I have bought Iphone 5 with no contract (649$ + Tax) and i've activated it with nano sim of sprint (without having sprint account)
    i am outside US now , and i was discover that the phone can't be used because the activation with other sim is failed.
    Sprint says that can't do anything if i dont have sprint account (no sure why they cant locate it VIA SN\IMEI).
    what should i do in order to unlock it ?
    Thanks

    You bought a Sprint phone. Sprint phones are NOT unlocked. Sprint will only unlock the SIM slot for current Sprint customers in good standing for use while travelling internationally.
    You bought the wrong phone.  Since you're not a Sprint customer, you can not get it unlocked. Sell it to someone in the US and buy a phone you can use.

  • Can I use my sprint iPhone 4S with another carrier if it's unlocked

    Can I use my sprint iPhone 4S with another carrier if it's unlocked. Sprint will only unlock it if it's international. they will not unlock it if I want to use the iphone4s with another USA carrier.  Why? I have paid for the phone and don't have a contract.  I wanted to switch the SIM card and use tmobile or another provider because I am very dissatisfied with sprint service. Lots of drop calls and texting takes 15 to reach the other person.  It is horrible,,,, I hate sprint!,

    Sorry, what others here have said is wrong, wrong, wrong. There is nothing about the hardware of the iPhone 4S that would prevent a Sprint 4S from being used on T-Mobile, or any GSM carrier, international or domestic. Nothing. Zero. Zip. Zilch. Nada. Each and every 4S is 100% hardware capable of doing both GSM and CDMA out of the box. The only impediment is that Sprint would have to authorize an unlock for you. This is something they simply refuse to do. If anyone at Sprint has told you that they can't unlock a 4S for domestic use with another carrier, they have lied to your face. This, by the way, is something they're doing with everyone who asks the question - just Google search "Sprint unlock iPhone 4S", and you'll see dozens of internet threads where people talk about being lied to by Sprint about this issue. The good news is that Sprint signed an agreement with the FCC regarding letting off-contract customers unlock their phones. The agreement takes effect in mid-March, and Sprint is dragging its feet until then. Once that deadline passes, if Sprint still hasn't agreed to unlock your phone, then they're in violation of the agreement, and you can and should report them to the FCC. I sure plan to. Then I'm going to switch carriers, to one that doesn't lie to me and keep fraudulent liens on my property.
