I can't use my iPhone 5 in China

Dear Sir or Madam，
As I bought my iPhone 5 in the USA from Sprint, full price with tax, unlocked ,it was excepted to be a global phone. But now I come across with some problems in China using local carrier, everything is working properly except sending text message, and iMessage and Facetime also seem not to work.This is very serious for Apple and me! Will I have the chance to fix this?
I tried all the possible solutions from the Internet, and the Official solution offered by Apple (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4459 ), but it doesn't seem to work.
Will Apple help me with this issue? Please do.
Information of my iPhone:
IMEI:  990002742018318
MEID: 99000274201831
thanks.

There is no Sir or Madam representing Apple here.
Is your carrier a supported carrier for iPhones ?
For the listed issues talk to your carrier.
See http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1937 and also see as in the footnote.
For a complete list of features and specifications for iPhone models sold in China, refer to the iPhone page at www.apple.com.cn.

  • HT1386 I can't use my iphone after upgrading to IOS5

    Can someone help?  I can't use my iphone 3gs after upgrading to ios5.

    I have iphone 3 GS.  I upgraded the software to ios 5 and the phone is now can't be accessed.  All I can see is the Gray screen says Iphone.  It ask me to set it up, choose your country, wifi, etc.  when I did that, it always stop at the page where it says "Apple activation server is down, please try it again".  Tried so many times but the same messages kept showing up.  Connect it to Itunes, itunes said there is no sim card installed.  I went to AT&T to get the new simcard and it still saying the same thing.  don't know what's wrong with it.

  • How can I use 2 iPhone 4's on same iTunes account, but NOT sync same contacts?

    How can I use 2 iPhone 4's on same iTunes account, but NOT sync same contacts?

    They need to be registered under different Apple ID's.  The initial Apple ID is set when you first start the phone up.  If you've already registered the phone to the iTunes account, back it up to your computer, and then have iTunes do a factory reset.  Go to www.icloud.com, log in with your current Apple ID, select "Find My iPhone," choose the iPhone you want to dissociate from your primary Apple ID from the upper left, and then click the little circled X ("remove").
    When you start the phone, it will have you go through the setup process again, at which time you need to create a unique Apple ID for the device.  You can then restore it from your iTunes backup to get back your apps and other settings.
    Whenever you use the iTunes store, use the login information (Apple ID and password) that you were using before.  Basically, the second Apple ID that you created is purely used for accessing iCloud services, which includes synchronization of contacts, iCal events, and other such things.

  • Hi, we have two iphones with two accounts.  The apple tv automatically syncs with one account to play music from the iphone to apple tv.  How can I use my iphone to do the same?

    Our experience is a little different, we have different iTunes accounts for different family members, each family member has their own iTunes library on their own mac, each mac uses my Apple ID for homesharing and we are able to play purchased content from each library on the Apple TV.

  • Can i use my iphone without a sim card as a ipod

    can i use my iphone without a sim card as a ipod?

    The SIM card is not required to use an iPhone as an iPod or to be used for anything else besides cell phone related services.
    For a no longer activated iPhone, the no longer activated SIM card that was used with the iPhone when it was activated must be inserted in the iPhone in order to install an iOS update and for no other reason.

  • How can i use my iphone 4 from japan in india

    The only way to use an iPhone from Japan in India is to pay your Japanese carrier for international roaming. Japanese iPhones can not be unlocked.

  • Can i use my iphone 5 charger for the ipad air

    Can I use my iphone 5 charger for the ipad air?

    It's really not recommended. The iPhone's 5w charger does not output enough current to properly charge the battery. It -may- charge but if it did, it would charge the iPad very slowly.
    This would be like trying to fill a bucket of water (iPad) with a squirt gun (5w charger)
    Also under iOS 7, the charging requirements are much stricter than iOS 6. You'll likey get an error message if you try.

    Every time I switch on the iPhone, the iTunes icon is displayed together with a USB icon and Emergency call message appears on the screen in many languages. When I touch the i symbol I get the following information IMEI: **** AND ICCID: ****
    However, the iphone is visible in the Devices directory in iTunes. I changed my SIM card but still can not be recognized by the iPhone.
