I would like to knw if this going to work with my case. I bought this phone on OCT, 2010
This is AT&T's published statement, and all we know at this stage:
"Beginning Sunday, April 8, we will offer qualifying customers the ability to unlock their AT&T iPhones. The only requirements are that a customer’s account must be in good standing, their device cannot be associated with a current and active term commitment on an AT&T customer account, and they need to have fulfilled their contract term, upgraded under one of our upgrade policies or paid an early termination fee."

I have an iPhone 4S with Verizon, and I wanted to know if it would be possible for me to buy an iPhone 5 for the off-contract price just as if I was purchasing it for myself, and then ship it to my brother in Austria and let him use it there on the GSM network.
The reason I think this might be possible is because the GSM part of the Verizon iPhone 5 comes unlocked out of the box (or so I've been told)
One obstacle that might stand in the way is if I have to activate the iPhone 5 with Verizon before I send it to him.
Let me know if this would be possible.If it is truly unlocked (versus the sim slot being unlocked), then yes you would be able to do this. I have no way of actually verifying if my VZW iPhone 5 is truly unlocked (I don't know of a local iPhone 5 AT&T customer to use their sim to see if my phone will work) but maybe someone on here has been able to verify this further than just what some articles state. Otherwise, if it's just the sim slot being unlocked then you would need to keep the phone active on VZW and your brother can use simcards on Europe to roam instead of paying the VZW roaming charges.

Off Contract 8900 How To Upgrade OS 5?
It is my understanding that this OS upgrade is avaliable via some carriers websites, however how would i go about upgrading my off contract device?
ThanksBy off-contract, you do still have the BIS BlackBerry Data Plan on your device?

http://www.blackberryforums.com/general-8900-series-discussion-javelin/227412-latest-os-8900-v5-0-0-...
Do a backup of your device first, using Desktop Manager > Backup. Close Desktop Manager upon completion.
1. Download the OS file to the PC then install it to the PC by running (double clicking) the file you downloaded.

Discount for off contract Iphone
Last month I found a link in myverizon that said I could get $15 off a month for my off contract phone.I applied for it and it's its suppose to start in Jan.Has anyone else actually got the discount ? If so,have you added another phone ( that's already paid for) and received the discount for it also ?
I just bought my husband a verizon iPhone 4s ( unlocked) and want to add him to the acct but not at the higher rate ( will get him a prepay if I can't get the other rate)
Anybody else get this deal ?From VZW via email --
The promotion you requested for your wireless number has been completed and will be effective starting 05/13/2014. You'll start seeing your discount in your next 1-2 bills and it will continue until you upgrade or renew your service agreement.
New Promotion Added:
MORE EVERYTHING VALUE $25 OFF
RushFan -- Maximum kudos to you. I got three emails like the above after following your advice. Thank you and stay thirsty, my friend. Aces.
VZW staff -- I appreciate the replies here and I am pleased you guys are on the ball. However, comma, Why weren't these heavily advertised discounts just applied automatically? Why did Rushfan have to point me to something obscurely called "Change Features" to apply a discount I am owed? Please tell me that this would have kicked in automatically. Would it?
Again, thanks to all who tried to help. -
Purchased phone (3GS) unlocked, outright so no contract from Apple store in Australia.
Living in Denmark now and phone won't accept Danish sims. Guys in phone shop say phone is actually locked and he doesn't understand how it could be if it was supposed to be off contract. Software updates have been done regularly. They think that it shouldn't come up "connect to iTunes" when the Danish sim is installed.
Any hints would be welcome.Hi Peter
Yes - it was from a proper Apple Store.
I only purchased the unit - no special requests and then went to O2 and hooked up with a scolling monthly sim.
I used that sim for about 6 months and then moved out here. I took on two PAYG sims, one for Qatar and one for UAE but neither are accepted.
When connect to my mbp, the phone screen shows the iphone connect cable and iTunes picks it up. The message then says " must insert original sim to register" My point - the original sim, was completely independant from the phone but I cant get past this point to do anything further.
Any thoughts? -
I bought an AT&T off-contract iPhone5
but when I connect it to iTunes it has someone else's information there. Also, I bought the iPhone5 at a store and support said I had purchased it online. Was the iPhone5 bought online by someone and an Apple sales person sold it to me by mistake? Was the iPhone5 bought online and the person changed their mind and cancelled the order, but their personal information was added to the iPhone5 anyway?
HELP!!!where did u get iphone 5 off contract--send me a link--i want to buy it--and an att of contract iphone can be unlocked by restorin it in itunes

AT&T unlock requires the phone to be "off contract". It's always a mystery on the definiton of "off contract". For example, customer John bought an iPhone 6 from AT&T with subsidized price $199 and signed a two-year service contract. After one year, John put his SIM card into an old iPhone 5 and sold the iPhone 6 to Mary for $399. John continue paying his AT&T bills. Now Mary wanted to unlock the iPhone 6 she bought from John. Is this iPhone 6 considered "off contract"? From finacial perspective, No. Because John hasn't fufilled his 2-year commitment yet. But from technical perspective, the iPhone 6 does not associate with John's line any more. To make things more interesting, what if Mary is an AT&T post-paid customer with no contract commitment? What if Mary put her SIM into the iPhone 6? Does she have to wait for 60 days before she can submit an unlock request?

Very good question and I don't think anyone here can give a definitive answer. The reason I say that is because of the number of posts from customers who try to unlock their phone only to get a message that the IMEI can not be found in ATT's database. That makes me think that while the IMEI should be reported to ATT by Apple, it's not happening.I think the answer is the new imei is supposed to get reported but it does not happen in all cases. My wife's iphone 4 was replaced by Apple and when her contract expired, I had no problem getting it unlocked. Now this was back in 2013 so not sure if things have changed. -

Hey guys,
I just came back home after getting my new iPhone 4S at the Apple retail store, I've bought the iPhone from AT&T without a contract at full retail price 649 + taxes. The person who sold it to me kept repeating it won't be unlocked be I bought it anyway
Now back home I want to activate it but I don't want to take the risk of losing the unlock because I don't have a microsim other than the one from AT&T.
So my question is if I connect to iTunes with the AT&T microsim will I still get the iphone is unlocked message ?
Thanks in advance !Just read your own post:
...The person who sold it to me kept repeating it won't be unlocked be I bought it anyway...
...I don't want to take the risk of losing the unlock
Without contract does NOT mean unlocked. -
If I buy an iPhone 4S (the unlocked and contract-free version), do I need to add a microSIM card if I just want to use it as, essentially, an iPod Touch? I'll probably get a microSIM card eventually, but I just need the wi-fi based technology now. Anyone know?
It will not do anything (other than call 911) until you activate it with a microSIM. Look into an iPod Touch instead.

Off Contract discount still valid?
One of my phones just went off contract. I went to to attempt to get the $25 discount (I have 14GB data plan) on myverizon and it says that "no promotions or discounts apply to this line". When I called customer service they said only Edge phones got that discount. What are the steps necessary to get this discount if it is still valid?
I'm happy you were able to add your discount mgm22. Please let us know if you have any further questions or concerns.

How do I get the $25 month2month "More Everything" discount on my off-contract lines?
I have the pop-up discount automatically added when I logged onto My Verizon, but it is not adding it to my second off-contract line. Please fix that for me.
Never mind I was able to finally get onto live chat and they confirmed my eligibility and applied the discount.

will the iphone 6 plus work in pakistan if i buy the unlocked and contract free version from the apple store? why is t mobile written on top of the button? it is so confusing no one will give me a straight answer on this. if i buy that one, would there be any monthly charges involved or not?
Are you planning on flying to and visiting the US? That is the only way you are going to get an iPhone from the Apple store because you will not be able to purchase one from the Apple store online and get it sent to Pakistan - it can't be done and Apple online stores will not ship internationally.
You have not got a straight answer to this question because there is none. The phone has T-Mobile on the top button, because it is a T-Mobile phone and although sold as contract free, but NOT unlocked - notice the difference, it still comes with a T-Mobile sim card.
The phone may or may not work in Paskistan and if you do buy the phone, to ensure that it has the best possible chance of working is to take the T-Mobile sim card out of the phone first and DO NOT activate the phone using the T-Mobile sim. If you want to use it in Pakistan, then activate it with your local Pakistan sim card and you will not be paying any charges to T-Mobile if you do this. If you do happen to accidentally activate the phone with the T-Mobile sim card in it, then you will have a contract with them and yes, you will have a monthly bill with T-Mobile and you will need to keep this contract for 40 days, until you can get the phone unlocked by them.
Also note, that if you buy the phone it may not work on 4G networks in Pakistan due to frequency differences and also you will have no warranty cover for the phone in Pakistan - iPhone warranty is NOT international, so country of original purchase, so the US, which means you have to fly back there - no postage accepted.
So basically, the phone should work in Pakistan, but not on the 4G networks and you need to take the T-Mobile sim card out before you activate it and activate it using a local sim card and you will have NO warranty cover for the phone in Pakistan. -
When will the unlocked and contract free iPhone 5 be available, and what is the price going to be
Im From Georgia(Republic of), and im wondering when will the unlocked and contract free version on the new iPhone 5 be available, and is the price going to be the same as iPhone 4S's($650)? IF it will be available for pre-ordering i want to buy one.
Assuming you are referring to the US, no one knows for sure but probably 4 to 6 weeks after the release of the iPhone 5 for the same price as the 4s.
