Problems With Unlocking iphone

Im having Trouble unlocking my iphone, Just paided to have it unlocked, they told me to sync with itunes, and then it should permently be unlocked.
well im having trouble connecting my phone to my itunes, it says; The phone cannot be used because it requires the update 10.6.3
Ive updated it and still doesnt work how do i get it to unlock?

It should say 10.something. Like 10.1, etc. If it does not you need to use your browswer and download and install a new version of iTunes.

Problem with unlocked iPhone

MY iphone is unlocked in uk and accepts all sim cards in uk but when i travel to colombia and insert local sim it asks to activate the phone and then says please insert the original sim the phone came with why is this when my phone is unlocked ?

i got my phone on the vodafone network in uk, also they are the ones who unlocked my iphone 5 for me by contacting apple and my phone was unlocked, at the time i checked 4 different uk sim cards in my phone and were all working fine, then i had problem with my iphone kept crashing so took it in to a apple store in uk and the exchanged my iphone for me.
when phone had been exchanged in apple store they gave me unlocked phone, how i know this my carrier is vodafone uk, and i have used my uk t-mobile sim card in there and was working fine, and currently using giffgaff uk sim card which runs on the uk o2 network telefonica. works perfectly fine.
it is now that i am in colombia and inserted sim card from clara previously known as comcel colombia,
and it said - ACTIVATION REQUIRED - when it states that i can see full signal bars for reception and also see the 3G sign.
then states either choose wifi signal or use mobile connection.
i can choose either and have choosen boh options an it states
only compataible sim cards from a supported carrier maybe used to activate iphone. please insert the sim card that came with your iphone
so strange when i can use all uk sim cards in my phone and has been tested by me myself

Problems with unlocking Iphone 5c

I just got a new iphone 5c and i created a passcode for it, and for some reason, it's telling me the password is wrong. I'm 100% sure it's the right one. I havent backed up my iphone to itunes before, so i dont know how to reset it. Any suggestions?

The only way to get passed the passcode is to put the phone into forced recovery mode and restore it. You can plug it into itunes and see if it will let you backup the phone first. If not then you can check iCloud.com to see if there is any info stored there, such as contacts and such.
Use article TS3281 http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3281 to put the phone into forced recovery mode and restore.
Hope this helps!

See this: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1559
If you carefully follow all of the instructions in this tip and none of them restore WiFi then your radio chip has failed and you need to get the phone replaced by Apple.

Problems with my iPhone 3g remains in spite of 2.0.2 would a restore help??

Hey I have several problems with my iPhone, all of which i would have thought would dissappear as Apple updated the firmware, but it hasn´t so far.
My problems are that the keyboard is lagging every fifth time that I use it, the letters appear about 1 second after i pressed the key on the keyboard. It happens when I am writing SMS as well as E-mails.
The contacts app takes about 4 seconds to start, and when I am scrolling it is lagging quite a bit.
When I listen to music it suddenly stops, even if I haven´t touched it, then I have to press play to get it to start again. If it use the volume buttons to turn the sound up or down it also sometimes stops the music. When i recieve calls, mails or messages the music fades down, but afterwards it doesn´t start again. It only starts when I "wake up" the phone and unlock it.
Last but not least the 3g signal is really not that stable and often turns back to edge.
I have read lots of posts where people talk about how the newer firmware updates have resolved most of their problems, but I haven´t experienced any changes after I have updated. It almost seems like it doesn´t really "notice" the new firmware.
I have been thinking about doing a restore, but if I use the latest back-up it would most likely have the same issues as now right?
If I do a complete restore and delete everything I will have to spend a lot of time getting all the content back on the phone and I don´t know if it will help at all.
My question is if anyone here have the same problems as me, if they don´t notice any differences after updating the firmware as well?
On top of that I would like to know if anyone here have experienced any positive effects of doing a full restore? Has it helped resolving any of your problems?
Thanx a lot

On 2.0.2 with a full restore. Still experiencing all of the issues you mention except the iPod related stuff.
I am really losing patience with apple and their silence about all of these problems.
Not sure how much longer I am willing to put up with it before i send it back.

Two problems with my iPhone: screen doesn't light up at notifications & iPhone says updated apps still need to be updated

Alright, I'm having two annoying problems with my iPhone. It's an iPhone 4.
I'm using the latest iOS.
The first problem is that when I get a notification (a mail, text message, whatever), I hear the sound that it makes, but the screen doesn't light up. Then, when I click the home or the turn-on / off button (basically when I'm in the lock menu), it doesn't show the notification either. Yet, in the notification settings, I've set up to show them. For example mails. I just received a few mails. For mail, I've selected the banner in the notification center. But I see no banner. I see nothing in fact. I can unlock my phone and go in mail, and see the mail there.
What could be the reason for this? I've recently done some changes on it, I mean, not exactly on the iPhone, but in iTunes. I removed all photos from my iPhone (over 3000) and all songs that were on it. I decided to sync only the latest 3 months of photos and 3 months of music. I don't think it's related but it's the last thing I've done with it, and since then this has been happening, so I thought I'd mention it.
My second problem is that, while I was updating my music and photo library on my iPhone, I also synced all app updates. I have around 6 or 7 of them, lurking there for a while, and I never got the time to download them in iTunes and sync them with my iPhone. So that's what I did as well. Strangely enough, when I visit the App Store app, under Updates, it still tells me I have 5 apps to update. I remember one I updated on the iPhone itself.
They're all listed there with the little bar that shows up when it's loading, except it isn't loading. It's just stuck there, at the very beginning. No, not even at the beginning, because the blue little bar that moves forward isn't even present.The also show up this way on my iPhone "desktop" (Home), and it says "Waiting..." below them.
I've tried syncing again, and also restarting the iPhone, but it didn't help. Anyone know what's wrong here?
I appreciate all help. Cheers guys

Nobody? The second problem is solved! But my phone still doesn't light up or shows a banner or anything when for example a mail arrives?

HT4528 I have an IPhone 5 and the bluetooth will not stay connected with my 2011 Chrysler 200. I was told by Chrysler service department that it is a problem with the IPhone 5. Is there an update or a fix so i can use the bluetooth in my vehicle?

Iran uses GSM, so the iPhone 5 will work. It is already unlocked. Just put local Iranian SIM in phone.

Problem with my iPhone 4s battery/charge.

Hi all,
I have a problem with my Iphone 4s battery / charge. I read through different forums and blogs and I found that some other users has my same problem.
My phone is loosing charge faster than anytime before. All started two weeks ago, before iOs 6.1.3 release. I use to charge the phone up to 100% every night. One mornign, i switched on the phone and I could no hear the typical sound of the screen unlocked. In addition the keyboard made no sound. I tried to control the volume with the side buttons, but once I pressed one of the two, nothing appeared under the speaker / sound logo. I left the phone just for a while and then the sound was back on. From that day till today, this thing is happening everytime i switched on the phone after a recharge.
PLUS, I noticed that the phone is loosing the charge very fast. About 10% every hour, even in stand by mode.
I tried to switch off all the email account and do and hard reset, but nothing changed.
I bought the phone 10 months ago.
What I have to do?
Many thanks
Niko

I would like to know the answer to that one. I realized this was happening just after upgradeing my iOS to 6. Then when I looked up my purchase date, I was about 5 days past my one year warranty. So I'm dead in the water. Apple will replace the battery, but it will be about $80+. I took it to the Apple store, and they checked a bunch of stuff, but said that it seemed ok. I'm debating getting a battery for a more reasonable price off of ebay. But if it's the iOS thats draining the battery, then I'm not going to be able to help it. I wish I knew a better way to tell if its the battery, the phone, or the iOS.

Was your phone jailbroken or "unlocked" by someone other than the carrier it was originally locked to?
Sounds like you have a hacke/jailbroken phone.

"There is a problem with your iPhone" Help!

Hey there!
So I have a an iPhone 3gs and I recently just got an unlocked iPhone 4 off ebay. I recieved it today and after turning it on, selecting my language and contury, it asked me to connect it to iTunes. That's when I get the message in iTunes: "There is a problem with you iPhone".
I tired restoring it to the newest firware (6.1.3), but afterwards I got the same message again. I tried switiching USB ports, using a different chord, and even connecting it to iTunes with my buddy's computer.
I understand the message says to take it to the apple store, but the phone is suppose to be unlocked, and all Apple will try is to activate it with a carrier (T-Mobile, AT&T, etc.)
Does anyone know a fix to this problem without going to the Apple Store? Thanks!

hi, turn off your iphone
connect it to your computer with itunes on
press and hold power button+cancel button together, (the round one at the bottom together )
Until you see itunes symbol and let it go
then it will come up on your itunes saying that your iphone has been found in restore mode
then you can restore it and make it work again
cheers

If i buy an iphone in USA and don't buy a contract, could i use it in Denmark then and buy a contract their and still have no problems with the iPhone.

If you buy an Unlocked iPhone from the US, you can use that phone on any carrier that supports that particular phone (either GSM or CDMA). So yes, this is possible. But if anything happens to the phone that requires Apple's help, you will have to ship it back to US for that service.
