It will be locked to mobily telecom, and according to Apple's list of supported carriers and their features (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1937) they do not offer unlocking. Since only the carrier it is locked to can unlock it, you have bought a useless phone.

i have an iphone 5 , i restored it but now it stuck on the activation and required an icloud id and password to begin, but i dont know about id i purchased it from saudi arabia and now i am in pakistan. how can i activate this iphone 5????
please help!!!!!!!!!Unfortunately, you cannot do very much with your phone unless you get assistance from the previous owner, they should either provide you with the password to unlock it or remove their account from the phone entirely remotely through iCloud.com > Find My Phone.

I purchased iphone 4S without contract for 649$ can I use out of US
I purchased iphone 4S without contract for 649$ can I use out of US... Please help

Only if the iPhone was purchased as unlocked, and I don't believe Apple is selling the iPhone 4S as unlocked yet.
Purchasing an iPhone at the no-contract price or the full retail price does not automatically equate to the iPhone being unlocked.
You purchased this iPhone where?
As Allan said, purchasing without contract does not mean the iPhone 4S is unlocked (which is what you need for using it with any GSM carrier which I assume is what the OP wants). If you want to use the iPhone 4S with anyone besides AT&T, Verizon, or Sprint, you have to purchase it unlocked. And to be clear, purchasing it without contract from any of the 3 carriers mentioned, still means it is locked to that carrier and cannot be used with any of the other ones, period.
You should confirm with whoever you purchased the iPhone 4S from whether it is unlocked, but I bet it is locked to a carrier and you need to return it ASAP! Then wait for the unlocked iPhone 4Ss to come out and purchase straight from Apple, with the clear understanding that it is unlocked. -

And I have in my Apple ID 0.70 $ I should clear it before I change the Apple ID country
If you are in Saudi Arabia then you can only use the Saudi store. You can try contacting iTunes Support and ask if they can remove the balance from your account so that you can change your account to the Saudi store and therefore be able to use your Saudi credit card : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

I have purchased iPhone 4 from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia when i was on business tour. Now i am in India and using Airtel SIM. but Facetime is not working with any carrier in India.
How can i enable the facetime with Airtel or Aircel or Vodafone India carrier????
Second thing.... When i take snap in Night then flash works but pic does not come clear....
Please assist me....
Thanks a lotSorry, but you purchased an iPhone from a country that has requested FaceTime be removed from all iPhones sold in that country. Apple has no choice but to comply with these government requests, hence FaceTime has been removed from your phone and there is no way to activate it, regardless of where the the phone is used. If you want FaceTime, you need to sell your phone & purchase an iPhone in India.

dears,
I have a problem with iPhone is that I can replace it at points of sale in the U.S. because I bought from Saudi Arabia because the problem I think in the hard ware I do resoftware more than 3 times did not fix.
Network also always missing.
I am living in KS Wichita. I hope you help me pleas.
Regards.iPhone warranty is not international. You will have to return your
iPhone to Saudi Arabia for repair/replacement. Either take it back
yourself or send to friend/relative for them to take to Apple. Apple
will not accept international shipments for repair nor will Apple
ship repaired/replaced iPhones out of the country where the repair
was done. -

Hi...I buy iphone5 from Saudi Arabia but I don't have facetime ...now I m shifting to India ..will it work in India or not if I insert a Indian SIM card in my iPhone will it work or not.. Plz help
"India" is a country. Not a cellular carrier.
There are 2 supported carriers in India. Aircel and Aritel. See this list: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1937
If you have a legitimately unlocked iPhone, it will work with a properly provisioned SIM from either Aircel or Airtel.
It may work with other carriers in India, but not all features may work as expected. -
i bought an iphone5 from saudi arabia,can i use it in india?is there any requirements i have to take?many one are saying i need to unlock it,please any one help me,i did'nt activate my phone yet.
If the phone is unlocked then you can use it in India.
If your phone is locked, then the only way to get the phone unlocked is to contact your phone company/carrier. The person that sold you the phone in Saudi should have told you whether it was locked or unlocked. Contact them to check and then contact the carrier to have it unlocked if it is locked.
Other than that there is not a lot that you can do - perhaps it was unwise to purchase a phone in Saudi - it won't have Facetime on it if you got it there. -

The Device you have, because of where it was Purchased will never be able to have FaceTime.
All you can do is sell it and buy a Device from a non restrictive country.

Sorry, you can't. FaceTime has been permanently removed from your phone. There is no way to add it back.

dfr aldossaryWow, Karan Taneja, you've just embarrassed yourself on a worldwide support forum. Not only is your post ridiculous and completely inappropriate for a technical support forum, but it also shows your ignorance as to whom you think the audience is. Apple is not here. It's users, like you.
If you would have spent half the time actually reading the Terms of Use of this forum that YOU agreed to by signing up to post, as you did composing that usesless, inappropriate post, you (and the rest of us on this forum) would have been much better off.
