O2 in UK now unlocking iPhone 4

O2 in UK are now unlocking iPhone 4 from today Monday 6 December
If you want your iPhone 4 unlocked either complete the online request or use live chat which pops up
on the form's web page (as I did )
http://www.o2.co.uk/unlockmyiphone

Even though I purchased it unlocked from Apple?
If you purchased it as factory unlocked (at full, unsubsidized price), it's still unlocked.  Orange couldn't lock it to their network even if you had a contract.  All you have to do is get another carrier and use their SIM.  No unlocking is necessary

    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.

  • HT201210 I purchased the unlocked iphone 4s from UK.  Now me in Pakistan and phonbe is not working perhaps the sim is locked. what to do to open the iphone 4s.

    I purchased unlocked iphone 4s from UK,  Now me in Pakistan and here phone is not working as the sim is not recongnised. what to dow...????

    You would have to get the iphone back to the U.S.  Then you would have to get it to an Apple store.
    The warranty is only good in the U.S.

    Can I buy an unlock iphone 5 in US now?  If I can, how many business days can I get it?  Thank you!

    Yep, officially for sale now. Apple's online store shows it ships immediately, so should be in stock at just about every Apple store.

    Only the carrier it's locked to can authorize unlocking it. Contact Orange.

    It's A1549 model. Yeah i knew this is US version before i buy this. What i'm confusing now do u think this iphone i bought is a brand new one and why there is a sim card already inside the simcard slot? Even its working smoothly using a network in UAE. Some of my friends bought there US version of iphone but they bought it without simcard inside the sim card slot.

    thanks for this... I bought iphone 4 unlocked in USA in Dec 2012--being told by the salesperson IN the Apple store that there were Apple Stores in Quito & Cuenca. I'm in Cuenca now--NO STORE, & now that I need to activate--have also been told "not every cellular store CAN activate iphone!" I am reading about all these problems--yours is the first response that has a solution! Now going to set up with Claro... wish me luck! Any other advice you have on use in Ecuador--I'll be grateful :-)

  • I hve unlocked iphone and got walmart family mobile. I was issued a phone number initially with phone and then I had them change it. Now when I send texts caller id people see is the original phone number, and when I call it is the new number.

    I have unlocked iphone and got walmart family mobile. I was issued a phone number initially then asked for a different one. Now when I send text messages, they show up the original number, but when I make phone calls, the id shows up the new number, I can recieve text messages to both numbers. If you try to call the first number it says it is not a working number. On my phone, if I go under "about" it says "my phone number" and it says the second number, under settings, and messaging, it says that I send and recieve messages from the original one. T-mobile, has no idea why this is happening and has tried everything to fix it

    This is for iMessages only, not for text messages as in SMS/MMS.
    Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > Apple ID.
    Select your Apple ID and at the menu window that appears, select Sign Out.
    Turn iMessage off at Settings > Messages > iMessage.
    Then follow these instructions.
    You can remove an iPhone from your support profile by following these steps.
    Step 1: Click on this link to open the login window of your support profile.
    Step 2: Log into the website using your Apple ID – same as your iTunes login.
    Step 3: Click on the button ‘Edit products’ and select the iPhone that you want to remove from the list.
    Step 4: Click on the arrow behind the product, and then click on the button ‘Unregister’ to delete the iPhone from your support profile.
    After you unregister your iPhone, on your iPhone go to Settings > Messages > iMessage and turn iMessage on.
    Go to Settings < Messages > Send & Receive > Apple ID. Sign back in with your Apple ID.
    This should re-register your iPhone with your Apple ID with iMessage with the new phone number only.

  • I purchased an unlocked iPhone 4S from US and returned to india,but now I can't activate the phone.

    I purchased an unlocked iPhone 4S from US and returned to india,but now I can't activate the phone. Called up the apple support team in India they said it is already unlocked from AT&T. What am I suppose to do ?
    Previously my iTunes was showing the phone and summary etc etc. The India Support center asked me to upgrade it to 5.1.1 then the new sim will be recognised, but now nothing is happening, even iTunes is not showing the Summary page.
    Please suggest?
    I never expected apple stuff to be like this.

    Got an (unlocked) iphone 4s from US
    As kb1951 states, unless this phone was purchased directly from Apple, it is not officially unlocked. In the US, only Apple sells officially unlocked iPhones. The message you got generally means your phone was hacked to unlock it...jailbroken...Apple's servers have detected such & are preventing your phone from activating...there's nothing wrong with the activation servers.
    You'll need a sim card from the carrier your phone is locked to in order to activate it. If you don't know what carrier, you'll have to call AppleCare in the US to determine this info. Be aware, US carriers will not authorize official unlocking unless you are a customer that used the phone on their network. Thus, there is most likely no way for you to get this phone officially unlocked.
    Good luck.

  • HT1267 I have a factory unlocked Iphone 4S, it worked fine but it was lossing the signal and going into search, I decided to restore, but now can not activate it, a message can not be activated because the server is temporary unavailable try again later??

    I have a factory unlocked Iphone 4S, it worked fine but it was often lossing  signal and going into search, I decided to restore, but now can not activate it, a message can not be activated because the server is temporary unavailable try again later, I have tried this for 3 days, any suggestions?

    yes did you buy it of somebody or a well known company such as apple or carphone warehouse?
    and i mean the phone would have been activated in the first place with the sim card you get given when you first get the phone.
    trying to activate the phone with another sim card that you did not get when you brought the phone may result in you not being able to activate it
    no worries

  • How can I tell if my iPhone is now unlocked?

    Called AT&T for instructions. The Cust Svc rep took my info, did something on her end, and then told me to connect phone to iTunes, back it up then restore the phone. from the backup. Did that, but I see no indication that the phone is unlocked.

    If you do not receive a message from iTunes that your iPhone is
    now unlocked, something on AT&T's end did not work. Contact
    AT&T again for assistance.

  • Recently ordered an unlocked iphone 4s on Nov. 24th. However, I have yet to receive a shipment notification email. Status of order has been on processing items for a week now. Anyone know how long it generally takes to receive shipment notification?

    I recently ordered an unlocked iphone 4s from the apple store online on Nov. 24th. However, I have yet to receive a shipment notification email. The status of my order has been on processing items for a week now. Does anyone know how long it generally takes to receive shipment notification?

    I know this email is confusing and really hard to understand...perhaps now you will know how i've been feeling--lost and confused with all the mis-information, with a hit and miss phone, and out of time with all the 1 1/2 hr to 2 hrs EACH wasted on this issue.
    On top of all this, I can't even find out how to file a complaint with anyone higher up than Customer Service.
    I hate to tell you this, but you didn't write an email. You wrote a discussion post on the Verizon Wireless Community forum which is a public peer to peer forum. Unfortunately since you didn't mark your post as a question, the VZW reps that roam this community won't ever see your post. Before you re-post it, don't. Duplicate posts get removed from the community.
    I see there were several missteps both by the reps and yourself in your post. First you should have insisted on returning the phone within the 14 day return policy period. Second which Samsung Galaxy mini model did you purchase? The S3 mini or the S4 mini? Did you do any research prior to deciding on this device. The reps at that time deflected the easiest course of action, by trying to get you to replace the phone under insurance instead of returning the phone. The Early Edge payment option requires the current phone on the line using the early Edge must be returned to Verizon Wireless. Did you once considered going to a third party site like Swappa to purchase a gently used device for your daughter?

  • Is unlocked iphone 5 available in US, UK or Germany now?!

    I am in Dusseldorf, Germany on a short business trip.  I want to buy unlocked iphone 5 here or from US or UK as I have friends who travel to UK and US weekly and bi-weekly. 
    I want to buy unlocked iphone 5 - is it available now?!
    Please let me know. 

    The iPhone 5 is available unlocked in the UK at Apple stores (that is, if you can get your hands on one).  Keep in mind, however,  that the warranty on the iPhone is NOT international.  If you need service on the phone, you'll need to return to the UK for service,
