IPhone 5 factory unlocked. version is already on sale. Thanks
Hi, i'm from Uruguay, here there are a lot of people, how is offering the iPhone 5 factory unlocked. i want to know if is real that the factory unlocked version is already on sale. Thanks
The officially unlocked iPhone 5 will work just fine in both Singapore & India. The only thing you won't have is LTE support, but, AFAIK there is no LTE in India anyway.

Is iphone 5s 16gb available in factory unlocked version in USA?
is iphone 5s 16gb available in factory unlocked version in USA
As Chris says. while the phone will work in India some features such as LTE connectivity may not work.
As to the differences, there is only one unlocked iPhone for sale form the Apple store. The T-Mobile version.
It is contract free and unlocked. But only if you buy it from Apple. If you buy it from a T-Mobile store it will be locked.
Also I'll repeat what Chris said: The warranty will only be valid in the US. so if you have any issues with the phone you won't be able to get it fixed or exchanged anywhere but the US. -

If iphone 5s unlock version which order from apple activated by T-mobile card can be used in China
I ordered one T-mobile contact free Iphone 5s in apple online store recently, but I activate the iphone by the T-mobile card which install the iphone auto., not by China's network carrier card, so I want to know if iphone 5s unlock version which actived by T-mobile card can be used in China ?
You have already activated the phone with the T-Mobile sim card in it, which is why the phone has become locked to T-Mobile and whilst the phone is locked to T-Mobile, there is no way to re-activate it with another sim card.
It is not silly at all and this is where you needed to have done your research in full and ask those questions about the differences between unlocked phones and sim free/contract free phones and then you would have found this out.
There is nothing else that you can do. What you need to do is contact T-Mobile in the US and tell them that you purchased the phone from the US Apple store and activated it with their sim card and the phone is now locked and request that they unlock it for you. They may do it, but mostly they may tell you that you need to wait 40 days before they will unlock the phone for you. Unfortunately, whilst you wait for the 40 days you won't be able to use the phone and there is absolutely nothing that you can do.
Also, if you are using this phone in Europe why on earth did you buy it in the US? If you knew that you wanted to use the phone in Europe, why did you not go and buy the phone in another European country? This would have made more sense, because countries like the UK sell unlocked phones in the Apple store and you will have EU warranty on the phone and you will most likely get 4G too, but with the phone you have now, you have found that you cannot use it and your warranty is only valid for the US and not the EU - iPhone warranty is not international.
There is nothing else that you can do now except contact T-Mobile in the US and request an unlock, but until they will unlock you will not be able to use the phone. -
I have a brand new iphone 4s unlocked version from singapore and I am experiencing constant network fluctuations on my iphone , no service, call failed, invalid sim, sim failure, bars fluctuating from 5 - 3 - 2 - 1, no signal/bars searching etc... Ifeel miserable after trying out all the options changed multiple sims, tried multiple carriers, restored the phone back and have set-up as new device but the problem does not get solved... its is so frustrating that after investing on a world's most expensive phone you cannot enjoy the calling features which the phone offers which is the main thing you own the phone for.. Rest of the things are working.. The funniest part I am not able to make calls or receive calls but can access the internet.. I have tried every possible thing and really very frustrated with this iphone of mine...I hope the problem gets solved.. would anyone have any solutions to this problem.. Does it mean one should never update software as I hear that after updating to IOS.5.1 the problem has started coming and same has been with there.... Apple says its a hardware failure which is very difficult to digest as sometimes I get 5 bars and able to make and receive calls but 95% of the time I am unable to. If anyone has any solution I will be very happy if he or share can share the same. Many thanks. its so disgusting to experience this on top of this apple does not support global warranty for the phone as you need to go to the country from where you bought the phone for replacement.. Truly sad state of affairs.. very very very dissappointing.
Have a look at this it might help

I live in Saudi Arabia and intend to buy an iPhone 5 (unlocked version) from U.K. I want to know, would it be possible to claim warranty from the local network operator which is the official Apple iPhone seller i.e. Mobily. Would they repair/replace my iPhone 5 ?
You would need to return to U.K. for warranty service. The iPhone warranty is not international.

When I tried to sync my 4G iphone factory unlocked to iTunes I got this message "An update to the carrier settings for your iPhone is available. Would you like to download it now?" Should I hit "Download and Update"? or "Learn More" ?
I have a factory unlocked iPhone 3GS (eg: purchased from Apple). I received the same message at some point and eventually (after reading a bit more) accepted "Download and Update". No problem. No apparent bad effects. It just seems to update things specific to the carrier (Bell Mobility in my case).

If you unlock a phone, you can use it with any carrier. Just be aware that T-mobile is not a carrier that AppleCare tech support will be able to troubleshoot

Warranty does not cover damage. If the problem is a result of damage, then it is indeed out of warranty. -
When apple will release iphone 6 unlocked version at usa states ?
when apple will release iphone 6 & 6 plus unlocked version at usa states ?
Historically I believe its been 2-4 months after the release of the provider locked versions. You just have to be patient. Personally I am also waiting for Apple to release a truly unlocked device before I upgrade one of our iPhones.

IPhone factory unlock doesn't work
I've an iPhone 4 (sunrise). I contacted sunrise to unlock my iPhone, they confirmed via Email that the iPhone is unlocked. But it doesn't work, I restored the iPhone and put the sim on, but it doesn't work...
I had a similar problem (official unlock did not work) and it was recently resolved with Apple's help. AT&T approved my unlock nearly 5 months ago and since then we tried repeatedly - using every method suggested here and elsewhere- but we never got the Congrats message and the phone did not work with other SIMs (such as TMobile and SIMS from other countries).
AT&T wouldn't talk to us because we were no longer customers. After about 40 restores and 5 months of this headache we gave up. Then one late evening recently I went to the genius bar. I took all the paperwork, which inlcuded a printout from AT&T's website which showed that the request for unlock had been approved 5 months ago and that we had been restoring in futility since then. After much, much imploration and with Apple's help, my problem was finally solved.
Moral of the story: There are legit instances when an official unlock from AT&T does not go through. The conversation that needs to happen between the phone company and Apple once the unlock is approved sometimes never happens and your phone remains locked despite the approval. If you find yourself in this situation, do one or both of two things:
put in another request with your phone company (if you can) and try Restoring again
open an AppleCare case. It is worth it at $20. I was lucky and I didn't have to pay (but I had waited 5 months; your patience may not be that extensive). The service is effective and efficient.
