  • Iphone 4, unlock via IMEI

    I bought an iphone 4, but I'm using it in Costa Rica, how I can unlock via IMEI for use in Costa Rica

    All AT&T iPhones are locked to AT&T.
    AT&T has never offered unlocking and has not indicated in any way that they ever will.
    Only the carrier to whom the device is locked can unlock it.
    If the device was being used with a different carrier, then it was hacked to be unlocked.
    No support can be provided via these forums for hacked devices.
    Sell the device and purchase one that is officially unlocked if you want/need an unlocked iPhone.

I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own.

    Call AT&T, only they can do it for you.

  • Vodafone tell me that is be waiting for unlock by IMEI by Apple, how many days are necesary for it?

    I called vodafone to unlock my iphone 4 by IMEI, they told me that now they are waiting the password from Apple, how many days are necesary for it? thanks

    You don't say where you are but process is
    Carrier approves your request to unlock ?
    they instruct Apple to update their servers to release the lock which is activated via iTunes
    Depends on how fast Vodafone work and how fast Apple update their servers
    For you to activate you need to insert a non Vodafone sim  and connect to iTunes
    When Apple have updated you will get a message
    "congratulations your iPhone is now unlocked "

  • After the iPhone 4 for ATT is. Unlocked with imei does that make it factory unlocked or will it relock to AT&T when I update phone ?

    If I reviewed a unlock with the imei for AT&T with the iPhone 4 and now it is successfully unlocked through iTunes will I lose the unlock of I update to new iOS or will it remain unlocked ?

    Yes I called AT&T did the official imei unlock I called apple and they told me it should be unlocked web I did the restore like they prompted me too I had a AT&T sim thinking I needed to activate it with it
    Then apple told me it locked I had to redo the unlock with att but this time I used a Tmobile sim and then it told me iPhone successfully unlocked so I was wondering now that it should not relock back to att of their sim goes back in the phone

  • Unlocked iPhone imei

    Hello,
    I have an unlocked iPhone from the Apple Store.
    So I'm visiting Mexico for a few days and I bought a Mexican SIM card so I can use my phone in Mexico.
    The carrier (Telcel) ask me for my iPhone's IMEI.
    My question is:
    The have my IMEI, will that affect the unlocked iPhone?
    I mean, I'll be able to still using it in my country?
    I normally use Rogers (Canada).
    Thanks.

    The Mexican carrier cannot lock your phone if that is your question. I'm guessing they want this as part of the activation of the SIM.

  • How to get the unlock by IMEI from Apple?

    Does anyone know how to unlock your iphone 4? I bought my iphone 4 from a ebay seller and now I want to use it with another carrier but it is carrier locked (AT&T). Can somebody give me information about getting the IMEI unlock code and where to get it?
    IOS 5.0.1 / Baseband 04.11.08
    Thanks

    Only the carrier can unlock the phone, and AT&T won't unlock it.  You'll have to either return it or buy service from AT&T.

  • HT4389 I NEED TO UNLOCK MY IMEI IPHONE 4 HOW?

  • HT1937 AT&T IMEI unlock

    I bought my iPhone 4 on Sep-2010 from an Apple store at non-contract price of USD 699.  I did not know at that point of time, there is actually no unlock iPhone 4 version sold in the US.
    I requested to unlock the IMEI from AT&T but was rejected with a reply "The IMEI provided is not a valid AT&T IMEI" from AT&T.  I have confirmed with Apple support that the serial and IMEI number is indeed an AT&T IMEI.  Any other avenues or support I can get from Apple or AT&T to get my iPhone 4 unlocked?

    It's done!  And it was a breezer, just plug in Sim card, then connect to iTunes, it'll say it needs activation, just follow phone activation steps, I did it thru wifi and it was completed within seconds.
    This shows preserverance paid off.  Those guys at AT&T really s*cks.  Imagine if I had just left it at such and had ended up paying for 3rd party unlocks.

  • Why does an Orange UK iPhone unlock take 30 days?

    Orange UK says an iPhone unlock can take up to 30 days. AT&T can do it in 72 hours according to this article http://thenextweb.com/mobile/2012/04/08/atts-iphone-unlock-process-detailed-a-qu ick-online-chat-apple-does-the-unlocking-requires-imei-only/
    Why the difference?
    And why when you ask for a PAC number from Orange UK as you approach contract end don't they offer to unlock your iPhone at the same time (for which they charge £20)?

    Henry Dodds wrote:
    Why the difference?
    It's simply Orange's policy on unlocking. Carriers can impose their own criteria/policy on unlocking.

  • How to unlock iPhone 4S

    Hi, ive just bought the 32GB iPhone 4S from Vodafone, here in the uk, now im actually on 3 Network, how do i unlock the phone to accept my other sim card? the iPhone 4's were factory unlocked

    Hi to everyone! I bought the new iPhone from Vodafone UK! I knew that it will be locked, so i called apple to ask them what i have to do! They told me that i have to go to Vodafone shop and told them that i want to unlock my IMEI to be an official unlocked iPhone! So, yesterday when i went to Vodafone, they told me that they can't do this! I mean, that they can't unlock my imei and i have to do an unofficial unlock!! It seems that the guy that told me that, didn't even know this process of official unlocking!! Any ideas??

  • How can i unlock my phone i just bought

    i just bought an used phone off ebay at&t im trying to unlock my imei how can i go about this

    Here are AT&T's official requirements for unlocking an iPhone:
    http://www.att.com/esupport/article.jsp?sid=KB414532&cv=820#fbid=7eivX4S6I8c
    and the procedure:
    https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/client/en_US/
    Note that they say they will unlock only if you are a current or former customer. So it's probable that you will have to get back with the person from whom you bought the iPhone and get them to request the unlock.
    Regards.
