Imei blocked phone os upgrade, imei blocked phone os upgrade, imei blocked phone os upgrade

I previously IMEI blocked my iphone 4S because I lost it once, but after a few months I've found it back and I unblocked the IMEI again, but dare not to upgrade it to iOS7 because I am afraid that the Major telco is gonna block it again. Is that possible?

LOL I was being silly...I dropped my phone somewhere in my very huge luggage bag and the battery dies there, then I blocked it overseas (bought it when I went to study my twinning programme to England),when I got back from there to my home country, my mom found the phone after a few months when she was going to use the travelling bag, hence, the troubles to unblock it from my home country really scares me to have to do it again, that's why I wanna make sure of it. I can't risk calling them back if it is blocked again as their charges was quite high, can't afford it now.
So? You guys can be sure that I should be able to upgrade the OS? Thank you for your swift replies and sorry for doubting...just wanna double confirm it.

If you've set up Find My iPhone, here's how to use it:

Whether you set it up or not, notify the authorities, giving them your serial number. Notify your cellular carrier as well.

Basics from the manual are restart, reset, and restore.
Have you tried these?

I was in a conversation with a colleague and a text (identical) came to both of our phones, when he researched it, it said it was blocked and I thought I might see where it came from through my phone. Is it possible to get a spam like that to our phones

I was in a conversation with a colleague and a text (identical) came to both of our phones, when he researched it, it said it was blocked and I thought I might see where it came from through my phone. Is it possible to get a spam like that to our phones at the same time.If the text came to my number marked from him, it could only have been from him?. Is there a possibility that someone else sent it to both of us at the same time?

Yes, it could be spam. I get spam text from time to time. Yes, you both could have gotten the same spam at the same time. Spammers re sending out thousands and thousands of messages.

My problem I worked updated iPhone 3 gs (ios4.1) to version (ios6), and when operating the device required to activate the phone and therefore appears to me aftermarket says (IMEI 01 216 300 555 018 3 ) ICCCID unknown.

There is no network
I hope that I showed you my problem

That's a critical failure. It can not be fixed. It is usually the result of jailbreaking or hacking the phone to unlock it.

evan tried jailbreak as a last option because i was getting fed up waiting for the imei unlock
Well, doing that "could" be your problem, as it will error out & prevent the official unlock from being processed.
At any rate, good luck.

If you lose your phone and you get a replacement . does you imei number change? or do they keep it the same as your old one?

Hi
Every handset has a unique series of identifiers, one of which is the IMEI number, so if you exchanged the handset (for example if it was not working & you were still under warranty) your new handset would have a new IMEI number.
What Apple do though is if you formally exchange your handset (again, under warranty etc) then they record the change on their system, but also give you a sticker which is meant to attach to the original box. That way, if you come to sell the handset, you have a proper record of why the IMEI number on the handset is different from the IMEI number on the box.

Hi. My phone screen broke and I had it replaced from a phone shop. The guy said that while changing the screen and phone was blocked. It is now disabled for like 23,000,000 minutes and I can't restore it cause I dont have all the data sync to my computer.

Is there anything I can do or can Apple do something if I give them the correct password?

As you had the iPhone opened by an unauthorised repairer ( Apple do not replace screens on iPhone 4)
Apple will not provide any service or support
Take it back to the "phoneShop" and tell them to fix it
You have no other alternatives

Is there a way for this community, to make a suggestion to Apple to include blocking a specific contact number calls and messages just as other phones provide that feature for their users.

No phone provides true call blocking. At best, they provide call diversion. Essentially, the call is answered and disconnected automatically. If I recall, Apple is adding call diversion features in iOS 7.
Best of luck.

If I have blocked lost phone with company, can person still see data on the phone?

I have blocked my stolen IPHONE 4s by phoning my service operator. Phone has no lock so can thief still see text messages/pictures etc if blocked? I have tried wiping it through find my iphone but cannot do it with no internet connection to phone?

"would it be possible to use the IMEI no. to check where is the phone now?"
No.
"you can lock it / delete those information in the phone?"
No.
Apple can do nothing at all.
If you set up find my iphone and it is on and it has not been restored, then you may be able to track it or wipe it.
Otherwise there is nothing you can do but report it to the police and change your passwords.

I am using Iphone 4 (not 4s) After upgrading to ios 5.0.1. is blocking. I live in Venezuela

Without more information, I have to say it sounds like the phone you have was not legitimately unlocked, but had been hacked. Updating iOS will re-lock it to the original carrier.
ONLY the carrier it is locked to can authorize unlocking it.
Where did you get the phone?

Can I use my new 4gs on a line different then the one it was upgraded on. I have many phones on my account. I am not eligible for upgrade but I had to buy two new phones for others. Can I give one of them my old iPhone 4 and take the 4gs.?

Yes.
Just call your provider and tell them what you want and they will help you get it done properly.

I have recently upgraded from my iphone 5 to a new phone. My iphone 5 's touch screen does not work anymore. I need to backup my phone, but I can't do it on itunes without my password. Everything besides screen is ok. Is there a way around it? :(

I have recently upgraded from my iphone 5 to a new phone. My iphone 5 's touch screen does not work anymore. I need to backup my phone, but I can't do it on itunes without my password. Everything besides the screen is completely fine-the screen will not recognize my finger anymore. I am not trying to fix the phone, but I need to have my contacts. The pictures have already synced, but I need my password to do a full backup. Unfortunately, I can't type in my password. Is there any way around it? If I take my phone to the apple store, will they be able to help me? I am not willing to replace the screen just to do this, however, so that is out of the question.

Someone else may have a workaround, but, as far as I know, if you cannot interact with the screen on the iPhone, there is no way to unlock it so you can get to your contacts.
Were you saving them to iCloud by chance? If so, you can restore them to your new phone.

Restore the backup from your computer

i bought my iphone 4 about a year ago and just decided to upgrade it to ios5 just recently. My phone restored to to its factory settings and when I clicked continue restore from back up it is now asking a backup password which i dont remember setting up one. I am currently using a windows vista PC. How can I retrieve the password or restore all my old data into the new OS. I have been reading blogs about the same situation and is it true that it is one of apple's bugs?

It is NOT a bug. You provided a password. If you can't remember it, you can't restore your phone from backup. Very simple.
