Is the iphone locked when you get it at apple store?

My friend's iPhone 4 broke and at the apple store (UK) they gave her a new one to replace the broken one. She is now in Finland and the iPhone appears to be locked.
The broken iPhone was bought in Finland and was not locked. This one is. Does apple only give/sell locked iPhones in the UK?

You should have gotten a like-for-like replacement. If the original phone was officially unlocked, the replacement phone should be as well. Call the store or AppleCare to fix.

    how to restore the iphone 4 when you get a restore message error (-1)?

    If the iPhone was jailbroken, you get this error due to baseband mismatch. No help for such iPhones here in this forum.
    if not, Restore on another computer. If error persists it is hardware failure.

  • .. If the app is – in or out of background - (if in background NOT the first app) and the  device locked – when you get a push message and DO NOT response straight away. Later  unlock, click the app icon (which will have a badge on it) and it fails.

    .. If the app is – in or out of background - (if in background NOT the first app) and the  device locked – when you get a push message and DO NOT response straight away. let it fade off then, Later unlock, click the app icon (which will have a badge on it) and it fails to pop up my internal alert box and my notification message is gone(cannot get access to it in code).. other times it works . Including if you tap the messaeg from app centre. (this is all on a iPod 5.1.1).

  • Where is the sensor that locks the Iphone 4s when you tilt it up on a call

    Where is the sensor that locks the Iphone 4s when you tilt it up on phone calls so your face does not touch it.

    The proximity sensor is at the top front center above the earpiece. If you look at a White iPhone 4S or a picture of a White iPhone 4S, you can see the small dark band above the earpiece, the proximity sensor lies just beneath this port on both the black and white iPhone 4S.

    Hi Mustafa
    sometimes after a update the language of the keyboard changes. with this some letters may be changed (for example y and z)
    I think in "settings - general" you can change the keyboard.

  • What is the iphone 4s front glass replacement cost from apple store?

    I would like to know how much will it cost to replace broken fronm glass of Iphone 4s? I just bought it one month ago!

    Hello,
    Apple are unable to replace the front screen on iPhone 4 and i'd imagine it'd be the same with the iPhone 4S, this is because it causes internal damage to the hardware inside the iPhone. When i had my iPhone replaced, it cost me £139, for a brand new (iPhone 4, 32GB, Black) but be aware the prices may change.
    Hope this helps.

  • What time are you getting to your Apple store to get your Reservation?

    As many of you have done, I RESERVED my iPhone 4 at my nearest Apple store, which is a good hour and a half drive from here. I have never stood in line before for an iPhone release, since I usually just wait a few days after the hype to pick one up. Well this year I HAD to have it on release ;)I figured as its a reservation I probably don't have to be there at opening, but since I took the day off work and can't wait to get it, I plan on being there at opening just to be certain. My question to all of you is what time do you plan on getting in line to pick up your reservation? I plan to be by the store by 5am.

    I would be very careful about that - I dont believe the reservation actually means you are guaranteed one.
    Reservations still are first come first serve. Meaning you can reserve your phone out of the quantity that the store will receive to dispurse to those that reserved, but that quantity can still be sold out to those that reserve that are there before you.
    Store gets 50 phones from apple. 100 people in line reserved them. 50 ppl get the phones, the other 50 dont.
    I may be wrong on this, but dont think I am. Id be really careful and do your research well.
    I hope your wrong but I read in another thread where the store will receive as much as are reserved for that store plus some extra for those that didnt reserve/pre-order. I might call and check but that was my understanding. There is a little note at the bottom of the email that says "pre-authorization does not guarentee Iphone availability......", sounds a little open ended to me.

  • HT1766 I'll be getting the Iphone 5 when it's released, either Friday or Saturday - depending when I have the day off of work...  Is there a way I can transfer my previous conversations/text messages from my Iphone 4 to my Iphone 5?

    Is it possible/how can I transfew all of my text messages I currently have on the iphone 4 to the iphone 5 when I get the new Iphone?
    For example, let's say I'm having a text message conversation with you over a 3 day period.  I never delete the text message/our conversation from my Iphone 4...  Can I have that (and all other text message conversations) transfered over to the new Iphone so I can resume the conversation where it was left off??  Please help.  Thank you very much!!  PS:  I'm not exactly computer savvy. 

    It is explained here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946

    P.S. I would call before you drive too.  I live within a half hour drive of two Apple Stores, several AT&T and Verizon Corp. stores, several BestBuys and a couple of Sprint Stores.  When the iPhone 4s came out, the local news reported that every single source was sold out within an hour of opening the doors on release day.  For that first week or so, stock arriving in the morning was sold out by noon - it was literally not worth even trying to buy in store for that first week or so, it was sheer bedlam.

  • How do I get rid of doubles of photos sent by an iPhone? When I try to trash them, I get the message 'locked' Thank you.

    Hi
    Thank you for the reply.
    No I have not deleted anything, this all happened automatically when the trial period ended.
    Other than an old version of Photoshop (version 7, for which I do have a serial number, I don't have any other Adobe software - just the reader which is now not working)
    I was trialling Dreamwever but couldn't get started with it so am paying someone else to set up the website using Wordpress.

  • HT201299 what does it mean when you get this message on the Iphone? "online maps consume data traffic"

    what does it mean when you get this message on the Iphone? "online maps consume data traffic"

    That means that if you use online maps, it will consume data. If you're on WiFi, no worries. If you are on cellular data, then it will eat into your cellular data plan.

  • How do you get the iPhone to take you to a direct message when you search for something in Spotlight Search?

    Everytime I search for  a message, the iPhone takes me to the bottom of the text screen. How do I find that exact message without having to search by myself? Are there any options to change this?

    You aren't crazy.
    Adding the photo to contacts on the computer gets you the smaller pix when people call.
    Assign the photo on the phone itself and you get full-size pix.
    Additionally I took a few test photos from the iphone and tried setting them to contacts. This didnt work either.
    So, that certainly should work. Try it again? Try it with a brand new contact, maybe it is not overwriting a previously existing picture.
    I suppose there is a small possibility that Apple thought this differing behavior was a bug instead of a feature and "fixed" it with a recent update, but I doubt it.

  • When you get the new iPhone 5S they say it come with al the iWork apps for free install already. But if i restore from back-up from an old device which doesnt have any iWork apps would I still receive those iWork Apps?

    Hey Davin12,
    Yes. The apps are not pre-installed, but rather you are prompted to download them the first time you launch the App Store in iOS 7:
    About Free Apple Apps for iOS 7 compatible devices
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5913
    iPhoto, iMovie, Keynote, Pages, and Numbers are free on the App Store for qualifying iOS 7 compatible devices activated or purchased after September 1, 2013
    The first time you launch the App Store in iOS 7 on your qualifying new or factory refurbished iOS device, you will be offered iMovie, iPhoto, Keynote, Pages, and Numbers for free in addition to other free software from Apple. When you tap Download All and sign in with your Apple ID, the apps will be downloaded to your device and added to your store account. If you tap Not Now when you see the offer, you can go back to each of the apps in the store and download them one at a time for free.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.
