My USA purchased iPhone 4S factory unlock is not working in India as it gets no signal bars

Hi,
I got my iPhone 4S from USA, which came with AT&T sim in it. It was sold as factory unlocked but when I inserted Indian sim card in it , there appeared the name of the service provider but no signals.
Can anybody help as what best can be done to resolve this issue.
Please help. !

You do not have an unlocked iPhone 4S. Those have not yet been released in the US, and will never be available from AT&T. You may have an iPhone purchased without a contract, but it is locked to AT&T, who do not unlock iPhones at any time for any reason. Return the iPhone to the place you purchased it and get your money back, since you will not be able to use that iPhone with an Indian carrier. I'd suggest you wait until the iPhone 4S is released in India rather than purchase from another country, since the warranty on the iPhone is valid only in the country of original sale.
Regards.

    one fine day yesterday, my i phone just hangup lost all contact detail. The screen only show a picture depicting cable connection to iTune. I have tried to restore iphone to factory setting but not working .  May i know how to proceed to recover lost contacts.

    I have taken it back to the Apple store genius bar, but they say they don't see anything wrong. Well unless you use it all day and experience the problems when they happen, you wont see anything wrong. But there are lots wrong with it. But this would be the same store as I purchased the phone. And they backed up my old Iphone 4, but were not able to get anything to load back onto my new phone. So, I lost pretty much everything. But over time, some of my contacts have started showing up, although i am still missing over 800 of them.

    I know; there are so many forums - it is not always easy to find the right one at the first try.  But posting in the right forum is important; it's where the people know about the product / service.

    Where did you get it? In some (not all) countries, it is possible to purchase unlocked phones directly from Apple. Some carriers in some countries sell unlocked phones. Some carriers in some countries offer unlocking of iPhones.

  • I never set a passcode for my iPad but it is locked and I can't get it unlocked.  The "slide to unlock" does not work.  How do I get it unlocked?

    I never set up a passcode for my iPad 2 but it is locked and I can't unlock it.  The "slide to unlock" does not work.  Any suggestions on how to unlock it?

    You have to slide to unlock to bring up the keyboard if a passcode is set. If you can't slide then try the following:
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

  • Iphone 5 factory unlocked mobile not getting charged

    Hello Apple Support,
    I bought a factory unlocked mobile when I was in US in March'2015, after coming to India I was using it with a GSM sim I got here and it was working fine for a week.For the last 2 days the phone is not getting charged. I thought it might be a issue with the Lightning USB charging cable and checked with a new Lightning to USB cable but the wasn't getting charged. So I took it to the apple service center here in India,Bangalore. The apple service person checked the mobile, did some battery/hardware reset and checked again with a charging cable but the issue was still there. He also said in the apple website the mobile's IMEI shows as locked. I explained to him I bought it as factory unlocked and I was using it with a GSM sim as well but he told me that is what the apple website showed and it cannot be service in India rather I should take to US for servicing.
    Can you(Apple support) please help me out with a solution for my problem ?
    My apple iphone 5 IMEI number is : ************
    Thanks !

    This is not Apple Support
    This is a User to User Technical Support Community .Apple neither read nor respond here
    You purchased an iPhone in the US .The iPhone warranty is not International and you can only receive Service and Support for an iPhone in The Country of Sale ,in your case the USA
    You can either take it to an Apple Store in the US or send it to a friend or relative to take into Apple
    Apple neither accept mail in of a product from cross border nor do they ship cross border
    and the only source of iPhones that are not locked to a carrier are the Apple Retail Stores in the US

    Did you buy an unlocked iPhone from an Apple store?  That is the only legitimate source.  if it is an unlocked iPhone then a valid sim will work.
