TS3198 Will iphone continue to be unlocked after iOS upgrade?

I.e. if I unlocked it - is it always unlocked now? How about factory reset?

If it is factory unlocked, or unlocked by your cellular provider, it will remain unlocked. If it has been hacked to provide the unlock, it will most likely become locked again during an upgrade.

  • How do I tell if the iphone 4s is actually unlocked after following all of the steps?

    How do I tell if the iphone 4s is actually unlocked after following all of the procedures?

    You should get a message on the phone that says the unlock was successful.
    Have you restored the phone as new?

  • HTF do i get my iPhone to connect to network after iOS7 upgrade? (Upgrade--really?)

    HTF do i get my iPhone to connect to network after iOS7 upgrade?  Upgrade?  Really?   I'm just really upset that I have to continually make concessions to someone else and my product does NOT work the way it should, and has done in the past!!!!

    Depends on your browser and it may appear in your downloads folder to run.  If you are using IE, it will appear on the bottom of the screen, Google Chrome, bottom of the screen, Firefox, top of the screen with an big arrow

    "Sounds like you guys are using the same apple id for imessage.   You will need to create a separate id for you wife.  OR go to settings - message - receive&send and make sure your phone number is the default for both you and yoru wife.

  • My iphone 5 wont reboot again after i upgraded to ios8

    My wifes has started to do the same, the iphone 3Gs was mine, I updated it to ios 5.0.1 while still using it and it was fine. I did a backup restore of her old 3G phone and again it was find for awhile.
    We noticed she doesnt have any data part of her package so we have switched off the data, since then we have this issue.
    I had to install a new docking part of the phone as her mic was faulty, I did the sim out, switch on 3G and data and then sim back in. Switched the phone off and then back on. all good.
    I stripped the phone down adn replaced the part. again all good. That I night my wife said Shall she turn the phone off in which I replied it should be fine. When she turned the phone on in the morning, the reboot problem was back.
    I'm wondering if the problem is to do with the Data on and off. I've also noticed that when the phone is up beofre it reboots, you can pop out the sim and the signal stays the same.
    When it does have a problem, she now does a quick reset from the phone which takes about 5 minutes and shes back up and running. its big pain!
    Think I will get her on a data package and then try again

  • HT1267 my iphone say imei iccid unknown after i upgraded please help

    my iphone says imei iccid unknown after i upgraded please help

    That indicates a critical failure. It can not be fixed. The phone will need to be replaced.
    Often, this is the result of attempting to update a jailbroken phone.

  • HT4623 My iPhone 4S keeps shutting down after I upgraded to iOS7

    My iPhone 4S keeps shutting down after I upgraded to iOS7

    This has happend twice to me in the past 12 hours since I just updated to iOS 7.0.2, but did not happen after I updated to iOS 7
    Last night the operating system crashed to the Apple symbol (a reset) when browsing the settings menu.
    Perhaps it's a bug with the movement tracking? Seems to be connected with sudden movements (I noticed it shut off when I quickly lifted the phone up to look at the screen) - perhaps the background parallax is glitching the system to a software reset? If my problem persists I may temproarily disable the parallax to see if that mitigates the resets.
    To be clear, the update to iOS 7 didn't precipitate this problem, and I updated to iOS & on the day of its release (9/18).
    This used to happen to me sporadically on my iphone 4s on iOS6, usually when my battery was anywhere at 40% to 5% - though I suspect that was because I was due to re-set the battery by completely draining it.
    Is anyone else having this issue with their iPhone 4S?
    I'm using a Verizon iPhone 4s 64 GB, still in excellent condition.

  • IPhone 3GS Audio Volume Decrease After iOS 5 Update

    The Audio/Volume on my iPhone 3GS has Decrease SIGNIFICANTLY After iOS 5 Update.  Oddly, the volume of the ring is fine, and as lout as it used to be, and as loud as all other audio should be, but when using any 3rd party applications, the volume output is significantly less (about 40% less) than it used to be.
    I am NOT the only person to experience this problem.  Apparently, the issue has been around since this past summer, when iOS was still being developed / tested.  There is a post about someone experiencing the same issue, here:
    http://modmyi.com/forums/general-iphone-chat/768919-ios-5-low-volume.html
    And before you ask .. I did a language change and reset, and I am still experiencing the SAME issue.
    Any help or advice with this problem would be greatly appreciated.
    In advance, thank you.

    I have a similar or related problem with iOS5/3GS and volume:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/16413964#16413964
    In my case I can hear nothing from the internal speakers although I can use headphones. The volume slider bar is unavailable unless I plug in headphones.

    I cannot sync contacts between my iPhone 4s and MacBook Pro after I upgraded the Mac with the latest operating system software upgrade. Even the Mac Store couldn't help...

    That is because that sync ability (for contacts and calendars) has been removed. Use iCloud instead.

  • I bought a Sandisk Connect Media Drive, downloaded the app from iTunes.  Before iOS 8, movies played fine.  After iOS upgrade I can no longer play movies downloaded from iTunes to the media drive.  Anyone else have a similar issue?

    I bought a Sandisk Connect Media Drive, downloaded the app from iTunes.  Before iOS 8, movies played fine.  After iOS upgrade I can no longer play movies downloaded from iTunes to the media drive.  Anyone else have a similar issue?

    I checked with SanDisk's own online support and they indicate that they have notified Apple of the issue.
    According to SanDisk, the problem lies with Apple not having the iOS 8 version of the Safari browser having DRM decoding enabled that the Media Drive relies upon to decode and play iTunes DRM titles. Non DRM encoded videos will play in the browser.
    DRM audio is not effected as this is handled by the native iOS music app.
    As of the date of this post SanDisk have not been given a timeframe by Apple for this issue to be resolved.
    I hope that Apple resolves this issue quickly as I have a large collection of DRM video titles on a 128Mb memory card installed in the Media Drive that I am unable to view.

    Thanks for your quick response. I've tried everything you suggested and get only temporary fixes. Sometimes for a day or two, sometimes only until I use Safari for the first time. It's annoying and probably effects battery life between charges.
    You would think that it must have some effect on the battery, but oddly enough, the update to iOS 8 actually helped my battery life, in spite of all of these hinky little issues that are taking place. In my experience, the activity icon is not affecting the battery in a negative way.
    Another issue with IOS 8.1 that you may have seen is the loss of icon pictures on home pages. Again it seems to be Safari related, since app icons found in the App Store are not affected, only web based icons you personally put on home pages. I get what I call a test screen similar to what you used to get on old tv sets on every one of my personal icons.
    I know exactly what you mean. I got that as well. On a few of them, when I opened the websites using the generic test screen icons and then closed them, they changed back to the way that they should look. For the ones that did not change, I recreated the home screen shortcuts and deleted the generic looking ones - the test screen icons.
    And don't get me started on iBooks.
    For the very limited use that I make of the iBooks app, i haven't noticed any problems, but I rarely use the app. I don't read books on the iPad other than a few user guides and if they are pdf guides, they reside in more reliable and feature rich pdf apps on my iOS device.
    I wish that I had the fix for the spinning activity icon, but everything that I try, is temporary at best. IMO, this is the buggiest iOS update that I have seen, and I have been using iOS devices since iOS 3 on my first iPad. I realize that there are plenty of people that are not experiencing issues, but I have seen a number of weird things that I wish I could fix. None of my problems are major, but they are annoying.

  • No valid license found after IOS upgrade on C3750x switch

    HI,
    Two switches below are working fine as a stack with IOS c3750e-universalk9-mz.122-55.SE5.bin & ipbase license.
    Switch#1 (Master, WS-C3750X-24P-S)
    Switch#2 (Member, WS-C3750X-24P-S)
    After IOS Upgrade to c3750e-universalk9-mz.150-2.SE7.bin, The stack was broken. Switch#2 didn’t recognise valid ipbase license with new IOS and came up with lanbase license instead. Therefore stack cannot be composed due to license mismatch between Switch#1 (ipbase) and switch#2(lanbase).
    I’m wondering why Switch#2 didn’t recognise ipbase license with new IOS even though IPASE is running well with previous IOS.
    Here is excerpt from “show version” with 15.x image on Switch#2.
    License Level: lanbase
    License Type: Default. No valid license found.
    Next reload license Level: lanbase
    Here is excerpt from “show version” with 12.x image on Switch Stack.
    License Level: ipbase
    License Type: Permanent
    Next reload license Level: ipbase
    Thanks
    Jeong

    Thanks guys,
    I have fixed the issue by configuring  'license boot level ipbase' on the member switch#2. The switch recognised IPBASE license well and joined the stack successfully.
