Not sure if old phone is still locked now ive upgraded early?

Hi i have just upgraded my phone from a Samsung Galaxy s4 and want to give it to a family member but not sure if it is locked to telstra sim only now that it has been paid out or if it can use any sim?

Hello samirose You can either try another network sim and check, or ring 132200 and ask for the Unlocking Department Hope this helps RegardsProfessor PhoneI'm not a Telstra employee.  I have been a mobile subscriber since 1963.If my advice has been helpful, a Kudo  "tick"    would be most appreciated.If my advice has solved your problem, please also mark it as a Solution

  • I'm having trouble setting up my new 5s. it won't connect to phone service and my old phone is still getting all my messages

    i'm having trouble setting up my new 5s. it won't connect to phone service and my old phone is still getting all my messages

    According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPhone_5
    the iPhone5 has 1GB of RAM, and internal storage of 16, 32, or 64GB.
    It does not use SD cards.
    Fake iphones are really Android phones using the skin of iOS6.
    Click on the App Store icon. If it takes you to Apple's App Store, then it's a real iPhone.
    But if you are directed to Google Play, then I'm afraid you've gotten a copy.

    It does not. It has listed :ATX Connector 24 (20+4) Pin X 1 PC, P4-12V 4 Pin X 1 PC, SATA 15 Pin X 2PC, IDE/Molex 4 Pin X 6
    You need something with 2x PCI Express 6 pin connectors.
    If you have enough 4 pin connectors left over after hooking up the rest of your computer this might still work though, if you use some adapters. They require two 4 pin connectors to power one 6 pin. I recommend looking inside your computer and figuring out which connectors you will need.

  • My Macbook air flash had gone for a month and I saw Apple's Macbook air flash storage drive replacement program. I'm not sure whether that program is still available for the broken device or not. Now, I'm booting from the external hard drive. Thank you.

    My Macbook air flash had gone for a month and I saw Apple's Macbook air flash storage drive replacement program. I'm not sure whether that program is still available for the broken device or not. Now, I'm booting from the external hard drive. Warranty has gone in October 2013..
    I want to send back my macbook air back to apple store. The problem is that I bought it from US and now, I'm using it in Myanmar. If the program is free of charge for my device, it's worth trying to send back to US. Since mine is broken, I'm afraid Apple will take charges for reparing.
    So, if anyone having the same problem as me, I would like to get suggestion....
    Thank you!!

    I have no idea about how to handle the international aspect of your question.
    But here is the Apple writeup about the problem and the remedy.  Maybe that will help you.

  • My ipad is syncing notes to an old phone with a different apple id how can I change it to sync to the new iphone icloud is off and so is home sharing

    Apps and Music are not from iCloud. Are from iTunes and App Store.
    You can change this from: Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Sign out and sign in with new ID, but you will have to pay again to download apps that you already have in your old account. Or leave it as it is to share purchases with your son.

    If you have an iTunes backup that includes the photos you may be able to extract them from the backup using a 3rd party utility such as http://www.wideanglesoftware.com/ibackupextractor/

  • Why does the old iphoto library still remain after the upgrade? Takes up HUGE space on my laptop

    Why does the old iphoto library still remain after the upgrade? Takes up HUGE space on my laptop

    Why does the old iphoto library still remain after the upgrade? Takes up HUGE space on my laptop
    Actually, it only looks like it takes up additional space. The file size shown is misleading.  When you migrate an iPhoto library to Photos, both libraries will show the media files using hard links. The actual file content of the image files and videos is shared by hard links:
    See this linked document:   Photos saves disk space by sharing images with your iPhoto or Aperture libraries - Apple Support
    You will gain no free storage at all by deleting either the iPhoto Library or the Photos library.  So keep both libraries until you are very sure, that Photos is working well  on your Mac and your iPhoto library has been migrated correctly. Also, check, if you like the workflow in Photos. It is very different from iPhoto and some iPhoto features are not supported.
    There will be no easy way back to iPhoto, if you delete your iPhoto library or the iPhoto application. Apple does not sell it any more.

    A no-contract sales price does not mean unlocked.
    Apple is now selling an officially unlocked iPhone in the U.S. which has nothing whatsoever to do with AT&T unlocking iPhones. It is up to the carrier and the carrier only to officially unlock an iPhone that was sold as carrier locked with the carrier - in this case sold as carrier locked with AT&T. This may change one day, but at the present time AT&T does not unlock an iPhone for any reason or under any circumstances.

  • What happens to the old phone at the time one gets (upgrades) to the 3G?

    So, I understand that the old phone stops working when you upgrade to the 3G, as they will transfer your number to it's SIM.
    I am wondering how instantaneous it is, and what actually happens, i.e. is displayed on the old phone.
    I am thinking of upgrading my wife's phone while she is on a plane returning - the account is in my name - so I won't have the physical phone with me. When she turns the old one on does it display a sim error, or say 'deactivated', or 'emergency only', or...... ???
    Thanks!
    Dan

    Nothing will happen to phone physically, it will just show "no service" in the upper left of phone. She won't be able to make calls, as they activate the phone at time of purchase. Otherwise, it will work normally.

  • "Not sure when your phone is going to be here."

    So I pre-ordered the iPhone when it was first available, and was very happy with how quickly it got here. I enjoyed it for a day until the screen froze. Called up Verizon, who said they were very sorry for the inconvenience and with so many phone going out, they expect there to be some problems. Said I should expect my new one in 2-6 days. Well on the 6th day, call up Verizon to hear this: Oh it seems that the phone rep. entered your phone into the backordered phones, so we are not sure when yours will come in. We will however, keep you updated on the status.
    So, I get a lemon for a phone, get placed on backorder status, and am not without a phone in a job that requires a cell phone. Thanks so much.

    I still have the previous phone, but can't even answer a phone call. Besides, I'm not going to pay for the data package on a phone that can't even access the internet.
    You don't have to pay for the data package (unless your old phone is a model that requires one).  Just reactivate your old phone by dialing *228 and selecting option 1.  Then, go online to MyVerizon and remove any data package that you don't want.  It will be re-added automatically when you activate your replacement iPhone.  In the meantime, the old phone will be active on your line and able to call and text.

  • I have an issue with my iphone touch screen not responding, apple replaced phone and still having same issue. They say its software, what can I do I need my phone to work

    Touch screen on Iphone slowly, over a few days stopped responding. Went to Genius Bar and was given a new 3GS because they didn't know how to fix the issue. Cool. Went home synced with Macbook Pro (new-12/2010), two days later same issue. This time when I went to Genius Bar they restored the phone to factory settings and instructed me to load as a new phone in Itunes instead of restoring information of the previous phone, which is an option good for when your replacing phone not fixing one Anywho, did everything they told me to do. SAME ISSUE A FEW DAYS LATER. This time I was told the software issue is with my Macbook and I thought this made sense, so I took it in along with the phone. That was yesterday. Phone working intermittently since leaving Apple. I was given instructions that if their "daily" fix didn't work to erase hard-drive and reinstall software that came with the macbook and start fresh. This would definately fix the issue. Extreme yes, but I need use of my phone, especially since we got rid of the house phone and all use cell phones. So last night I did the required erase of hard-drive and re-loaded all software that came with it and Microsoft Office for Mac. Plugged in the phone to set up in itunes and thought that was it. My phone is still not working. Can't answer when I try, can't make calls, etc. What the heck do I do? I'm starting to feel like a major lamo having to keep going back to Genius Bar, but I know enough to know these issues should have been resolved with the steps I've taken. I even went as far as to restore through my husbands computer and same thing. Could there be a problem with Itunes? Could the magnetic stripe in my debit card be hurting the device somehow, although that's a long shot since I have had the same or similar case since getting the phone. Frustrated beyond belief. Apple support not open at this hour so I'm trying my luck here.....
    Thanks for any input.

    restore iPhone as new and start again
