IPhone 3GS from Apple store in Germany? Is it unlocked?
Hey everyone! I have a UK 02 contract with an unlocked iPhone 3GS (unlocked by 02 after my initial 18 months). I was having problems with the phone and Apple in Germany replaced it a couple of weeks ago under warranty (as it's a worldwide warranty and I'm living in Cologne right now). Anyway, am I right to think that this iPhone will be unlocked as I got it directly from an Apple store? It obviously works with a German sim I've tried but I've not got a UK one to try at the moment. I tried calling 02 and asking them; a guy told me it was definitely unlocked if straight from Apple but I'd like to hear from other people as I might sell it to a friend in the UK and don't want to if it's locked.
Thanks so much for your time.
RegardsAll you have to do is pop any sim into the phone other than the one you're currently using(different carrier). If the phone works with no error messages, its unlocked.

HT201328 Unlocking iphone 3gs from Apple store
Vodafone won't unlock my iphone 3gs because the IMEI number doesn't match their records, because my original iphone broke and was replaced by Apple store. They said try Apple. Is this right?
Any help gratefully received.Contact Apple, explain the situation to them and they should be able to rectify it for you.
I'd recommend calling or using the Express Lane support online... the store will probably not be able to assist in this matter. -
Dear sir
I bought my iPhone 4 from Apple store in Charlotte N/C about 2years ago without contract.
Now I tried to upgrade it to iOS 7.0.4.but after that my phone not work with last sim card.
And invalid sim appeared.so I bought it without contract but it seems to be lock in my country
Please tell me whats the matter?
My phone serial no 86034HTCA4T
Modem firmware 04.12.09
ThanksWithout contract is not the same as unlocked. The update to iOS 7 relocked
the iPhone to the wireless carrier to which it was originally locked. You must
contact that wireless carrier to see if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
If you used jailbreak or other hack to unlock the iPhone initially, the method
used may prevent a legitimate unlock from succeeding and may render your
iPhone unuseable. -
hi, my name is Laith I'm from Iraq I just want to know what are the steps for buying a new iphone 5 from apple store and how to ship it to Iraq ???? and I would be grateful for you
Legality aside (I'm not a lawyer and have no opinion on the matter) in order to make a purchase of an iPhone 5 you would need to travel to a country where they are for sale and purchase it there. Be sure to get one that is officially unlocked or you would not be able to use it with your cell carrier. Be sure that your carrier supports use of the iPhone before you buy. Also note that the warranty of the iPhone is only valid in the country of purchase.
Appe does not ship outside of the countries where it sells the phones. -
i can't download/install apps (like skype) in my iphone 5 from apple store....it shows error code-1009.... can anybody help me...?
The error 1009 error is normally associated with a blocked country. There are a list of countries that Apple is not allowed to sell their software to due to US restrictions

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. -
If I purchase Iphone 4s from apple store, Can I claim the stuff at "istudio" in my country when it has any problem? Or do I have to buy for the warranty as well? I am deciding between ordering from apple store and buying from the representative.
Warranty is ONLY valid in the country where the device was originally sold by Apple.
The ONLY exception is for devices sold in the EU, as warranty and service can be obtained in any EU country.
The warranty on the iPhone is not International. -
hi, i pay new iphone 5 from apple store Paris and they have tolld me my iphone unlucked but now i cant reactivate
IMEI013417000881376Mate, I'm trying to find out if it was shipped like that or not. If someone else has had the same issue then I can go back to Apple and have them look into it further. If not then as I said Vodafone is selling second hand phones and they will have to replace the phone.
Vodafone account manager is saying that he has never heard of anything like it.
So I'm left with one of 3 answers.
1: The phone was shipped like that so its a factory error.
2: The Apple genius doesn’t know what he's talking about then I can go back to the store and ask for a second opinion.
3: Vodafone is selling second hand phones as new.
I need to narrow it down so I can deal with the account manager appropriately -

Dear Team,

when i was visiting for purchasing this device the sales team told me that the phone is unlocked and can use all around the world with any other network when i'm trying to use it other network it showed that NO SERVICE(at network issue) and then i made a call 2 apple customer support so the executive told me that this device has been locked with VODAFONE UK network. this was the FAKE commitment of sales team also its a CHEATING i must say that.
i'm very much disapointed and dissatiesfied with the APPLE STORE sales team...
kindely look toward and give me solution.
thanks,
regard,
Nishant KumarI had read that thanks but many happy owners of locked iPhones
claim to have bought from an Apple store they do not actually mean
Apple Retail
Arndale Centre is one of the largest Malls in Europe and every vendor of iPhones is there
Apple retail in UK ONLY sell unlocked iPhones unless you opt for a contract at a reduced price
not something you can do accidently as in sim free in US
But thanks for you guidance -

Why is the iPhone cheaper from Apple store than elsewhere?
Hi there, possible silly question for you here!
Why is the iPhone 5C £319 from apple and £399 from the likes of Carphone Warehouse or Virgin Mobile??
What am I missing?
Having been with Virgin for a very long time and using basic phones I need something that's going to let me do what I need on the go without lagging and crashing so I'm going for an iPhone...possibly the 5C.
Do you think Virgin would supply me with a sim to go in the iPhone if I bought it from Apple??
Hope you can help!?!?!

If Apple has decided to sell the 5C at £319 ( as shown on UK store) it will be NOT carrier locked and will work with any of the UK Apple Approved carriers ,including Virgin
(forget CPW their units will lock to the first carrier sim used )
I imagine if you have a contract Virgin will provide the correct sim provisioned for your number ,but ask them first
