Unlocked US iPhone4 to use in Italy

Hello everybody,
I would like to know if somebody already bought in USA an unlocked iPhone4 and tried to use it in Italy with an Italian micro-Sim card.
Thank you,
Micky

It will work just fine. The iPhone is a world phone, works eveywhere on supported carriers networks, as long as it is officially unlocked.

How do I get Verizon to unlock my iPhone4s for use in the US (NOT overseas)

12/13/13 Huffington Post
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Major U.S. wireless carriers on Thursday pledged to make it easier for consumers to "unlock" their mobile phones for use on competitors' networks, responding to pressure from consumer groups and the top U.S. communications regulator.
Verizon Wireless, AT&T Inc, Sprint Corp, T-Mobile US and U.S. Cellular agreed to "clearly notify" customers when their devices are eligible for unlocking and to process unlocking requests within two business days, said wireless industry group CTIA.
U.S. wireless carriers often "lock" smartphones to their networks as a way to encourage consumers to renew their mobile contracts. Consumers often get new devices at a heavily subsidized price in return for committing to longer contracts.
The top carriers have long allowed consumers to unlock devices and take them to another network at the end of a contract term - commonly, two years - though the process varies by company and can be quite painstaking.
Then in late 2012, the Library of Congress, the minder of U.S. copyright law, completed a new triannual review of exemptions to the law that effectively made phone unlocking illegal, even after the consumer completed the contract.
The ruling surprised many telecom observers, outraged phone users, and finally landed on the White House's agenda thanks to an online citizen petition that gathered 114,322 signatures, more than the 100,000 needed to spur a response. The White House sided with the petitioners.
I have been a Verizon customer for a decade (10 years). Verizon is now misleading me about having my iPhone 4s unlocked. After a long discussion they finally unlocked my families phones leading me to believe it was nationally. I just found out that they are REFUSING to unlock my phones in an effort to keep me with Verizon and very large monthly payment plan. If my phones were unlocked, I might stay with Verizon, however, in light of their deliberate attempt to lie to me and keep me hostage, I will most like buy new phones and move away from Verizon within the week.
Can anyone tell me if they have had success in having Verizon unlock their iPhone 4s?

I believe that the carriers have 3 months to partially implement this "pledge" and 12 months for it to be fully implemented.
I have not heard of anyone getting a Verizon iPhone 4s unlocked yet for use in the US.

HT1414 i am in the process of getting my iphone4 unlocked from att to use it on straighttalk. why do i need to "back up" the iphone and all of this? i dont have an apple computer sooo, im a little confused on why i need to do this. can someone please help

Can someone please explain and help me? I am unlocking an iphone4 from at&t to use it on the straight talk network. They've confirmed my request to do this and I am now a little confused as to what to do next. They want me to back up the phone using itunes on either a MAC or PC. I do not have an aplle computer but I do have an acer. Sooo, can I use it to do this? Or do I even have to do this to unlock and switch the iphone4 over to a new network? If I do have to what can I do to do this because like I said I do not have a computer by apple? Can anybody walk me through what I need to do next please? I've been waiting to do this for a very long time and I now have the option to have an iphone and use it. Thanks to my awesome boyfriend who Gave me his old iphone when he swapped back to an android. Hahahaha! Please anybody!? Because I sooo don't know what I'm doing and really do not want to mess the phone Or the process up. Thanks to any and all who read this and help me! It is greatly appreciate it!

Install iTunes on your Acer and you can back up the iPhone. Or back it up to iCloud. If you do not back it up you can get it unlocked, but you will lose all of your content.
You can get iTunes from http://www.apple.com/itunes.
Even after unlocking I'm not sure it will work on Straight Talk, because last time I checked ST used Verizon as its carrier, and an AT&T iPhone 4 is not compatible with Verizon's network. You can probably use it on Net 10 or T-Mobile once it is unlocked.

HT201407 hi i used to have O2 pay monthly contract but it ended in September 2012, since the contract expired I keep requesting O2 to unlock my iphone4. But they keep saying we are unable to unlock because of error. This is going on for 2 years. Can apple

hi i used to have O2 pay monthly contract but it ended in September 2012, since the contract expired I keep requesting O2 to unlock my iphone4. But they keep saying we are unable to unlock because of error. This is going on for 2 years. O2 keep saying they retrying and nothing happening. I am frustrated. How to unlock my phone? Can Apple help me?

No Apple cannot and this is a User to User forum ,no Apple staff here
As the carrier that locked the iPhone ,O2 are the only organisation that can unlock the iPhone
That said they are the most co-operative of all UK carriers with unlocking
Have you actually asked what the issue is and filled in their request form
and are you still located in UK ,if not that will be the issue

I've bought in Manassas #356 one IPHONE 5S UNLOCKED to be used in Italy but it doesn't work. HELP ME

On 3/6/14 I've bought in Manassas #356 one IPHONE 5S UNLOCKED to be used in Italy with the italian provider. I've paid it US$ 649. Back in Italy, the phone doesn't work with any provider. I've sent one email to the store not receiving any reply. I've called the store but none accepted to read this e-mail or gave me any solution. This problem has been caused by a mistake done from Best Buy employees and as customer I expect a quick solution from Best Buy.

Hello MassimoMastrocola,
When traveling, it’s essential to have an unlocked phone as each country has different carriers. I’m sorry to hear that you may have received a phone that was tied to a carrier local to the United States. This must be the last thing you want to be worrying about while in Italy, and I’m sorry you’ve had a difficult time trying to receive assistance.
Because of this, I’d like to take a closer look into your predicament to see if I may help. I’ve sent you a private message which may be viewed by logging into the forum and clicking on the envelope icon in the upper right-hand corner.
Thank you for posting!

How to unlock my iphone4

How to unlock my iphone4

If you are referring to unlocking it from the current carrier to use on a different carrier, only the carrier the device is locked to can authorize an unlock. You would need to contact them.

Verizon refused to unlock my iphone4

Verizon refused to unlock my iphone4 because they thought the iphone was a stolen phone. I bought the phone on ebay and my daughter had used the phone for several months, later on, she gave it to her sister after upgrading it to Iphone 5. But when her sister needed to transfer her old phone to this phone, Verizon couldn't reactivate it, and the reason was they said the phone was a stolen phone. How could Verizon activate it but couldn't re-activate???
With all the power they have to lock, unlock, reset, reboot or whatever, but they couldn't unlock a simple iphone.
I was asking to trade with even a used phone so my other daughter could use one, but Verizon wouldn't even consider it.....it SUCKS!
I have been a Verizon customer for many years and happy, but not until now. I am considering switching provider and telling at least 300+ people
where I work about this.

Person steals phone, posts it on ebay, you get phone, phone activated. Real owner discovers it is stolen, reports it stolen to Verizon. Verizon puts phone on black list. This does not deactivate phone, but cannot be reactivated again on Verizon. You daughter gets new phone, gives it to sister. Cannot reactivate.
The real victim here is the real owner that had his or her phone stolen.

How can you unlock a iphone4s sprint for a family member in russia?

How can you unlock a iphone4s sprint for a family member in russia? i sold it to them but when they took it back to russia is locked them out as if someone has stolen the phone.

Contact Sprint to see if they offer unlocking and if you qualify.
Only the wireless carrier to which the iPhone is locked can unlock it.

Do I need to unlock my phone to use Consumer Cellular?

I bought a used Iphone 3GS that was an AT&T phone and I was planning to use it with Consumer Cellular who said that I wouldn't need to unlock the phone to use their service. When the phone arrived it worked fine, I didn't have to go through any activation, it just went straight to the home screen. After inserting a SIM card and calling to activate it, the phone continued to work and I was able to text/make calls. Then it said it needed to be updated so I plugged it into itunes and let it be; when I checked on it it had restored itself and now I can no longer get into the phone. All I get is the activating phone screen and it won't recognize my SIM anymore. I bought a new SIM to see if that was the problem..still won't work. Why would it work one minute than just stop? Does this mean that I do infact have to unlock the phone to use it with my new service??

The used iPhone you purchased was apparently jailbroken to unlock it, and restoring iOS removed that jailbreak and your iPhone locked back to AT&T. Only AT&T can unlock it, assuming that the jailbreak hasn't rendered that now impossible as can happen. Here are AT&T's official requirements and procedure for unlocking an iPhone:
https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/client/en_US/
Note these terms in particular:
The person requesting the unlock must be one of the following:
• a current AT&T customer
• a former AT&T customer who can provide the phone number or account number for the account
so you may not be able to get that iPhone unlocked.
Regards.

Also...
It is Prudent to purchase the Phone in the Country it is intended for use in... It will then work as expected.
AND...
iPhone Warranty > The warranty is only valid in the country of original purchase... Except for EU Countries...
