Unlock my phone after operatng update

unlock my iphone after operating system update

We are all fellow users and not Apple employees so cannot do anything like unlock an iPhone for you.
Was your iPhone unlocked before the iOS update?  If not, you must deal with your cellular service provider to unlock the iPhone, only the carrier can do an unlocking.
If the iPhone was unlocked and got locked in the update process, take the iPhone to an Apple store genius bar where they can check the IMEI number against those that have been unlocked.  They can then deal with the unlocking.

    Typically this indicates a device that has been hacked to be unlocked or jailbroken.
    If that is the case, no support can be provided here.

  • TS3376 how do i unlock my phone after i find it if the code does'nt work it keep putting me off more and more minutes at a time?

    how do i unlock my phone after I find it I keep getting this phone is dialed for more and more minutes?

    Back it up and restore it in iTunes on the last computer it was synced with, as explained at the bottom of this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212.  This will remove the passcode.

  • HT201365 How do I unlock the phone after locking it through "Find My iPhone?"

    How do I unlock the phone after locking it through "Find My iPhone?"

    If you placed it in lost mode to lock it, sign into icloud.com, click on lost mode and turn it off.  If it is locked with Activation lock you'll have to provide the password for the iCloud ID you are being prompted for in order to use it.

  • Unlocking a phone after 2 year contract?

    Just finished 2 years on my latest contract, this is my 2nd 2 year contract with at&t and I am officially never going to use AT&T again..problem is now i'm stuck with an iphone that's the equivalent to an itouch just with an antenna. I've since switched over to another carrier but wanted to bring Iphone 4 along with me but since the phone is carrier locked i'm stuck and even through the usual unlocking channels (unauthorized) I can't due to the baseband update for 5.0.1 I know the phone is locked to AT&T  and all but should we as consumers not get an option to carrier unlock once our contracts are up? I mean seriously otherwise there's no point to even buying an iphone in the first place if you'll just continue to be stuck with at&t's inferior service. I'm in the U.S. and I know if I were in the uk I could pay to have it unlocked legally..why can't we get this here in the states? Had I purchased this phone unlocked in the first place I could justify the cost of the phone at it's unlocked price with the savings my new carrier offers, but with at&t my bill is twice as much and my phone is a slave to their service exclusively..it's like buying an xbox that once you xbox live contract is up you can't use anymore..apple got their money I don't understand the issue with allowing us to unrestrict our phones once we've served our jail sentence (that's how bad my service with at&t has been).

    AT&T will not unlock your phone for any reason. There is no law or regulation requiring them to do so. If you're unhappy about it, call your congressman.
    Sorry, that's just the way it is.

  • I can't activate my phone after reformatting it. My old appleID can't unlock the phone after it was been hacked and erase information inside

    I am having dilemma after reformatting my iPhone 5 and I can't get through the re-activation page. It requires me to log-in using my old apple ID which I abandoned 2 years ago after it was been hacked. Apparently, I was able to retrieve my old Apple ID and iCloud, however, the purchased items, downloaded apps, the linked device ("find my iphone app" to link) and other information were wiped out. I reset the password several times to see whether it helps, but still shows error message "Apple ID cannot be used to unlock this phone".
    Any advices and help to get through?

    Also I have not done anything to the phone ever since I bought it, so I assume that it's locked?

  • I get my wife"s messages on my phone after last update

    after the update ios 8 im getting my nwife's messages on my phone and she is not receiving calls from here contacts

    Actually nothing. He's currently finishing a PhD and was finding his iPhone too distracting so a few months ago he exchanged it for an old dumb mobile phone.

  • Can't unlock my phone after changing to longer password

    My company has requested that we move to a longer password on our phones. So I went into my settings and changed from using "simple" password (4 digits). It came up with a keypad and I entered a new 6 digit password instead. I decided to keep using numbers and not any letters. Now when I try to unlock my phone, the old numeric keypad shows up. I enter the 6 digits and nothing. The old 4 digits don't work either. If I keep trying, the company will wipe my phone. What can I do? I do have a recent backup, so maybe restore is my only option?
    I am currently running iOS 7 on an iPhone 4s.
    Thanks

    Nevermind... I didn't realize I had to hit OK after entering my password. I was so used to the 4 digit code that doesn't require OK.

  • Why is my music no longer playing on my phone after iOS7 update?

    I updated my phone to iOS7 (yay!) but now the majority of my music will not play on my my phone.  The music plays on my computer just fine, but doesn't appear to sync to my phone now.  This is how my 32 gig phone now appears on iTunes:
    It's filled to the correct levels... but says I have half of my phone free.  Which I don't.
    Anyone know how to fix this?
    Thanks,
    Susie

    I just found this and it seems to be working.
    ChrisJ4203 said "Is the Apple ID you are signed into the phone with the same as the Apple ID the music is with in iTunes? Can you try and sign out by going to Settings>iTunes and App Stores. Click on your Apple ID, select Sign out. Do a reset on the phone holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. After the phone restarts, then go back there and sign back in again. See if that helps."
    Seems to work! I actually have two different apple accounts for my phone and for my iTunes (when I got my phone the guy did not tell me how important it was to have one account!)
    So this may be the case for many people!

  • Trying restore my phone after the update and it's asking for a backup file password that I don't know.  Please help!

    After installing the latest update from apple my iPhone 4 will not complete the restore process with out a backup password.  I don't recall ever setting up a backup password and there is no help button if you can't find the password.  Apparently I'll loose all my data and have to set the phone up as a new phone.  This is very frustrating.

  • HT4623 I cannot login to my Apple ID on my phone after the update, although I can login to Apple on my computer. What do I do to get my phone back to operational? Please help!

    I have updated my I phone 4S and need to login to in to be able to use my phone. I am able to access and log in to Apple on the computer with my password and username although not able to do this on my phone. It keeps saying invalid user name or password. Please help me so I can use my phone. Thanks in advance for any and all assistance.

    Based on the numerous posts regarding iTunes and the App Store, there appears to be an issue at Apple's end. Although Apple has not provided any indication on the cloud status page.
    Do not change your settings.
