Unlocked or not ?

i have a iphone4 and i dont know does it unlock or not. how can i understand that if it is unlocked?

No one here can tell you if the iPhone is unlocked, but it must be since I don't believe Apple sells the iPhone in Turkey. If they do, the iPhone is sold as carrier locked with Turkcell or as unlocked.
The iPhone is either officially unlocked or was hacked to be unlocked. If hacked to be unlocked, installing a firmware update or restoring the iPhone with iTunes if wanted or needed will re-lock the iPhone to the carrier the iPhone was sold as carrier locked with when new.

  • I never set a passcode for my iPad but it is locked and I can't get it unlocked.  The "slide to unlock" does not work.  How do I get it unlocked?

    I never set up a passcode for my iPad 2 but it is locked and I can't unlock it.  The "slide to unlock" does not work.  Any suggestions on how to unlock it?

    You have to slide to unlock to bring up the keyboard if a passcode is set. If you can't slide then try the following:
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

  • Who will tell me whether my phone is unlocked or not?

    hi
    who will tell me whether my phone is unlocked or not?

    If your phone is out of contract, then I would take that to mean that when you purchased the phone you purchased it with a contract?  If this is correct, then you will have to contact your phone company to request that they unlocked your phone for you.  Nobody else can do this.  If this is the case and you did have a contract, then it does mean that your phone is locked.

  • Slide to unlock does not slide (repeat)

    Hi, everyone.  I actually raised this question a few nights ago, but then two respondents had some odd fight on the disussion board (about what I have no idea), and I never got a resolution. 
    Anyway, my slide to unlock does not slide.  I have connected my Ipad to Itunes, and restored the factory settings an rebooted a few times.  No luck.  For what it is worth, the "slide to power off" does work. 
    Any theories on what I should do next?
    Thanks,
    Jack

    I was one of the respondents and what I/we said is not totally uncommon on this site - I realize that our dialog was of no help to you and I apologize for that as well.
    And I agree with the gentleman from Tampa. I don't think that there is anything more that you can do if you have restored the device to factory settings.
    The only thing that I would add is that when you restored to factory settings - did you restore to a backup as well? If you did, then the backup may be corrupt and the problem could be in your backup. If you restored to factory settings and then tried the iPad - without adding any content at all - you should make an appointment with an Apple Genius and let them have a look.

  • How to check weather my i phone is officially unlock of not

    Hi everyone
    Recently i got iphone 3g , but im not sure how to check weather its officially unlock or not. So that i should upgrade the os with locking it.
    Serial no 5K9098AKY7K
    Model MB496X
    IMEI 01 180900 090330 3
    Plz help me out

    Look i bought it from open market in pakistan
    Then there is no way to confirm that your phone was officially unlocked. Buying from a non-official source, especially an "open market", means you're at the mercy of the seller as to the accuracy of the phone's status. Based on postings here, most of these phones have been hacked. You'll find out for sure though if you update to 3.1.3.

  • Slide to Unlock Does not respond.

    I have the new iPad.  When I turn it off and then back on, the slide to unlock does not respond.  However, when I do slide it and wait a little bit, it does unlock.  Is there anything I can do to get the slide to unlock to respond?

    I have the same problem as dberkovich and I too did resets, restores, reboot, etc.  Still acts the same. 
    Power up iPad (3-new)
    slide to unlock is frozen, lights do not move in the background,
    wait 10-15 seconds, screen goes black
    push home button and slide to unlock is working perfectly.
    This occurs everytime after complete power off and then back on.
    Took it to a Mac Store,(not Apple store) and representative said "We've never heard of this and it may be software and you should take it to an Apple store."
    Fact:  My nearest Apple store is about a 3 hour drive each way with even no traffic.
    This problem occured when my software was updated with IOS6.

  • I am to purchase a second hand iphone 4. but the seller says it can't be used as a phone as it doesn't have a sim card slot. he says he is not aware if the phone is unlocked or not... should i buy this phone??

    Depends
    If you need a cellphone then No.
    If he wants more than $1 then No.
    I would suggest that you buy an iPod Touch from Apple.

    As Kilted Tom said, make sure that you speak with your previous provider.  ATT will direct you to a website and have you enter in some information which will determine if you qualify for the unlocking status.  After you complete that, you will need to restore your phone as new through iTunes.  Make sure that you have a backup to iCloud in order to retrieve your content and data after you restore your device.

  • Can somebody tell me whether iphone 5S model A1453 comes factory unlocked or not ?

    Hello there , i just want to confirm that whetgher iphone 5S model A1453 comes FACTORY UNLOCKED or not ?

    Hi,
    See  this http://www.apple.com/iphone/LTE/
    If after a restore the iPhone was activated with idea sim, in all probability it is FUL. As there are only two supported carriers in India, Airtel and Aircel.
    From the support doc it would be evident that you bought a different iPhone model which is not marketed in India.
    You may be able to get all services here except LTE which is locked to any one of the listed for the model and selling US carrier.
