IPhone 5S stolen with iOS 7.0.4, Find My iPhone activated. Any Tips?

Hi all,
My iPhone 5S got stolen at a crowded place in India during a visit to historical place. Resigtered complaint with police, pvoided them all details (IMEI etc) and called cellular service provider. Service provider informed me that my sim got used in another iPhone 5, and they provided me with its IMEI number as well which I forwarded to police as well (could serve a clue). Since the activation lock prevents any new sim to be used in iPhone with iOS7, isn't this feature a demerit in locating a lost iPhone. I want to know if inserting any new sim in my lost iPhone would atleast bring it on celullar network so as to enable tracking.
Please fuel my search with some good tips.
Thanks.

    Your phone is carrier locked to a carrier other than the one you are trying to use.
    It was apparently hacked to unlock it prior to your attempt to update. Updating has re-locked it to the original carrier.
    Contact them and find out what their policy is.

    Sorry, you can't. There's no way to locate your phone other than physically looking for it.

  • I've updated my iPad 2 with iOS 6.0 but I don't see any settings for siri

    I've updated my iPad 2 with iOS 6.0 but I don't see any settings for siri.  I don't see many of the new features i was expecting and i am not sure as to why.  Will there be another update?  Please advise?  Thanks.

    Not for Siri on the iPad 2 - from http://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/ :
    Siri is available on iPhone 4S, iPhone 5, iPad (3rd generation), and iPod touch (5th generation) and requires Internet access. Cellular data charges may apply.
    Passbook, from the same page (not for iPads) :
    With Passbook, you can scan your iPhone or iPod touch to check in for a flight, get into a movie, and redeem a coupon.

    Errors related to downgrading iOS
    The required resource cannot be found: This alert message occurs when your device has a newer version of iOS than what is available in iTunes. When troubleshooting a device that presents this alert message, go toSettings > General > About and check the version of iOS on the device. If it is newer than the latest released iOS version, the device may have a prerelease developer version of iOS installed. Installing an older version of iOS over a newer version is not supported.
    Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state.
    There is not much you can do, sorry 

  • HT1414 I can not sync my iPhone after restoring it - my computer only gives me the restore (again and again and again) option.  I have no music and only a few aps now on my iPhone.  Any tips before I go to the genius bar?

    I can not sync my iPhone after restoring it - my computer only gives me the restore (again and again and again) option.  I have no music and only a few aps now on my iPhone.  Any tips before I go to the genius bar?

    If you restored as new, without using a backup, and still only get an option to restore, there is a hardware problem or the phone was previously hacked (jailbroken, downgraded iOS, unauthorized unlock).  Your only option is to take it to Apple or whoever provides iPhone service in your country.

  • Hi, there! My iPhone 4S refuses to connect with my MacBook Pro, via Bluetooth... Any tips?

    I start the whole process as indicated. Then, my MacBook Pro recognizes my iPhone 4S and starts the pairing. But when I try to pair my iPhone w/ my MacBook, the 4S indicates "the connection failed", and also says "the MacBook Pro isn't compatible"!
    Please, if you could help me I'd really appreciate. Tks!

    The Syncing process is via iTunes... not Bluetooth...

  • I'm using iphone 3gs, since i updated my phone to iOS there are instances that it crashes. Any tips on how to fix this?

    Since i updated my phone to iOS 5, I experienced my phone crashes adn it drains my battery. I don't know the reason why, whether the hardware (esp. memory) can't handle the more advance multi-tasking feature of iOS 5.
    Any help that you may advise to fix this?

    No fix from me, just a "I have the same issues"
    It even happens while doing nothing, and just charging it. Every few minutes I get the spinning wheel and the "recharge chimes" sound. I found a lot crash logs, most of them are for "Low Memory" or "SpringBoard" crashed due to a segmentation fault, also known as "BAD_ACCESS_EXCEPTION (SIGSEGV)"

  • How can I configure a 802.1x in a switch 2960 with IOS 15.0.2?

    Hi,
    I'm trying to config a switch WS-C2960+24PC-L with IOS 15.0(2)SE5 and C2960-LANBASEK9-M to use 802.1x in my network but when I type the following commands the IOS doesn't recognize the interface commands and I can't complete the settings:
    Router# configure terminal
    Router(config)# dot1x system-auth-control
    Router(config)# aaa new-model
    Router(config)# aaa authentication dot1x default group radius

  • Someone has stolen my iPhone 4S with ios 7. Please help me

    Hi everyone,
    My iPhone 4S with ios 7 with a passcode was taken. I didn't back up my data on to iCloud on itunes. Will the person who has taken my iPhone be able to break in and have access to my details on my iPhone 4S that has been taken. Is there a way to erase my data. This is my first time that I''ve lost my iPhone 4S. I didn't install Find my iPhone on to my 4S, Is there another way that I could track it down?
    Thank you.

    Find my iPhone feature is built into the iPhone.   You just needed to turn it on from Settings.
    If you did not do this, then you cannot track it or wipe it.
    Sorry.

  • If I buy a new iPhone 5, will it come with iOS 6?

    Hi, I'm from Brazil and we don't have any Apple Stores here yet, just Premium Resellers and the Carrier Stores.
    So, in Apple's reseller in my town, there still are some iPhone 5 boxes lying between the iPhone 4S, 5c and 5s's boxes, as well some old iPhone 4 ones. Leaving aside the comments like "wow, iPhone 4 and 5 souldn't be found anymore" (I know that), do you think if I get one, it will still come with iOS 6?
    I think so, becuase officially there aren't iPhone 5 in sale anymore, so it wouldn't make sense for Apple to ship them with iOS 7, because they stopped manufactoring the 5 before the iOS 7 and the new iPhones that ship with it, as well as the 4S 8GB, were introduced.
    I'm asking this because I got a 5s and I'm deeply disapponted with iOS 7, and for me it ruins all the great features that only the 5s has to offer, and I'm willing to go back to the last iPhone that could run iOS 6.
    PS: the Home Screen printed in the iPhone 5 box is from iOS 6, and we know Apple updated the printing on the 4s to iOS 7.
    Thank you all in advance

    Does the Premium Reseller offer a return policy? If you purchased the phone in an Apple store you could return it within 14 days for a refund. If the store you're dealing with offer this you could buy the phone and go through the setup process. You'll soon learn what version of the iOS is installed.
    Given that, i would add that it is not wise to continue running iOS 6 when there are no own security flaws. iOS 7 solves those problems and adds the activation lock to prevent thieves from activating your phone should it be stolen or you lose it somehow.
