I'm waiting to get my iphone 4 to be unlocked from an Orange account how long does it take Apple to do this and when and how do I know when it has been done?

I have tried for the last 3 months to get my pay as you go Orange phone unlocked

Hi,I hope someone is able to help.I have been trying for 3 months to have my pay as you go Orange phone unlocked. It is a Samsung F480.On three separate occasions I have rang customer services and have been assured they would sort it in a couple of weeks. No further communication was received each time.Then I tried our local EE shop in town. The staff left me in no doubt that there was no way they could help and I needed to contact customer service again.Three weeks ago I filled an online request, got an acknowledgement, and waited again. After ten days I was asked to redo my online because the IMEI number was not correct. I dispute that.Anyway I resubmitted my request, again after 10 days I have another text my IMEI number is not correct.I have obtained the IMEI number again by dialing *#06# how do I submit it to my application to unlock?There is no way I can find to do this. I have given up with customer service.Forgot to mention I have the required £8.99 in credit to pay for unlocking.Please help.

Hi James B,Thank you so much for your reply, after 3 months of silence I appreciate someone trying to help.I have contacted customer service again to check my IMEI number on record and it was the same one I found on my phone.The customer service rep was very sympathetic and (again) assured me he would personally sort it out.I accepted his assurance (again) because I am at a loss to do otherwise.However one thing which was differenr this time. A lady rang back within 5 minutes asking if I was happy with the service. I had to say I was reserving judgement. Again she assured me she would be in touch in a couple of days.Hopefully this time I may get a result. I will report back in a few days when I know for sure.Thank you again for your assistance it is much appreciated.Regards,ds0lpu

You can either use your carrier's international roaming plan, or if you have an unlocked phone, you can use local SIM cards from any compatible GSM carrier. If your phone is locked, you will need to contact your carrier to inquire as to the requirements and fees to have it unlocked. Not all carriers offer unlocking.

Help me get my phone unlock please

The question has been answered several thousand times here. Only the carrier can unlock the phone. Ask them.

How do I get my my phone unlocked

How do I get my ex contract i phone unlocked by apple?

You don't. Only the original cellular provider can unlock the iPhone. You will need to contact them to determine their unlocking policy and if you qualify.

Well, doing that "could" be your problem, as it will error out & prevent the official unlock from being processed.
At any rate, good luck.

Mobile phone unlocking

Hi,
I am wondering if it is possible to make a mobile phone unlocking program in Java?
If so can anyone tell me how I would start such a project?
Thanks in advance...
Johnny C

The problem will be the interface with the mobile phones' flashed memory, plus the manufacturers are starting to get very wise: a friend of mine used to do this (not via java). His setup was some program off the net for reading memory, a soldering iron and four cables :) Anyway, his method was to remove the bytes from memory where the "lock" was. That worked until about 18 months ago with a Nokia 3310, now his method doesn't work, they've got some kind of safety.
First of all if you could read the memory via, that would be an achievement. THere are sites on the net that show you how to build something that connects the phone to a serial port, try googling for those? Good luck :)

Wireless sync only works when I unlock phone. Is there a way to tell itunes my phones unlock code?

Wireless sync only works when I unlock phone. Is there a way to tell itunes my phones unlock code? Itunes tries to sync all night and posts 50 unknown errors. I unlock the phone and it syncs. I dont want my phone sitting around without a lock code but with wireless sync I cant find a place to tell itunes my code so it can sync? Any help is appreciated... Ray O

I have the same problem. I am forced to have a PIN set on my devices because I use my corporate exchange email and sync over wi-fi initially fails until I manually unlock the phone/ipad. #ckuan needs to read the words wiritten. We know how it's supposed to work but it won't start until you enter the PIN. Until then I get error messages saying either it cannot find the phone or explicitly telling me I need to unlock it.

There is no such thing as an "unlock code" for an iPhone. It's done through iTunes after being approved by the carrier it is locked to.
Go back to the carrier it is locked to and find out what the status is. If you paid someone else to unlock it, you got ripped off.

HT4623 I have an iphone 5 factory unlocked and straightalk via at@t is my carrier ... now that i have updated my ios i dont have phone service from straight talk and they say i need to have my phone unlocked again!

I have an iphone 5 factory unlocked gsm got my sim package with straightalk and it worked for 2 weeks no problems ... i was to update to ios 7.1 and now i dont have any service to make phone calls...... i contacted straight talk and they told me I need to have my phone unlocked again! is this true and if so how??

ok so the store I bought this from totally misrepresented it..I never got certification that it was factory unlocked ..thanks for your input ... it makes sense now ... it was a verizon phone to begin with from what I understand ..

Contact your wireless provider. Some offer IMEI blocking, some do not.
If you were using iOS 7 with Activation Blocking, the iPhone is useless to
anyone without knowledge of the email you used for activation and the
associated password.

Is my phone unlocked?

Hi, I contacted iPhone IMEI to check whether my phone is unlocked and they got back to me with:
'Next Tether: Unlock.
Lock Status: Unlocked '
Is my iPhone 5 unlocked or not based on this?
I bought the phone unlocked on eBay about 3 months ago, and then signed up with the network here in the UK called 3 and have a sim card of theirs and a contract.

It means the iPhone 5 is....
1.Not carrier locked
2.Carrier locked but by some lucky coincidence locked to 3
An iphone purchased on ebay does not lock to "A" carrier only if you buy new from CarPhoneWarehoiuse
