Want to unlock iPhone

I have purchased an used iphone 3gs in india, its orginal carrrir is at&t usa, can I officialy unlocked it, if yes then how.

Unless you can furnish AT&T a receipt showing you paid full price for the phone, from an authorized source in the US, or that you are a current/former customer, that used that phone on AT&T's network, AT&T will not process your unlock request.
I suspect there is no way for you to get that phone officially unlocked.

  • Where to buy my iPhone 5 from? I will be living in Canada for a while after 6 months. And returning to the UK regularly so I want an unlocked iPhone so I can use a local sim in Canada and a local sim in the UK to keep roaming costs down. But which model?

    Thank you for you help in advance

    If you buy an iPhone at the UK or Canadian Apple stores, it should work on the GSM frequencies in both countries. LTE will not work as the LTE channels are different in each country and each iPhone sold in each country is only compatible on LTE channels of that particular country. Other wise it should be fine.
    Be aware that only the Apple store (retail or online) sells the unlocked iPhone in the UK. I think the situation is similar in Canada. (It is in the US).

  • HT4528 I want to unlock Iphone 4s verizon

    I want to unlock Iphone 4s which I don't know the carrier at times it show Verizon and sometimes vf nl 12.1.my IMEI is 990001067071464,MEID 99000106707146,serial number is C38GRYE5DTF9,at the back of the iPhone there FC which is for US and CE 0682 which is Europe.please help [email protected]

    If Verizon is shown, the iPhone is carrier locked with Verizon. You need to contact Verizon in the U.S. to request the GSM portion of the iPhone to be unlocked. That is for Verizon customers in good standing only.

    You CANNOT unlock it yourself.
    ONLY the carrier to which it is locked can unlock it.

  • HT4623 want to unlock iphone to other network providers need help

    trying to unlock iphone so i am able to use any other network but ive tried and i just cant seem to do it does anyone know other ways of unlocking the phone need hel please

    The only ones who can unlock your iPhone is your phone company/carrier.
    You need to contact them and if they offer unlocking for your phone then ask them to unlock it and if they don't, there is nothing you can do.  In this case, you either need to purchase another phone that is fully and officially unlocked or you need to continue to use your phone with your current operator.
    Contact your phone comapny/carrier directly - they are the ONLY ones who can help you.

  • Siri wants to unlock iPhone if I want to use the camera

    If I want to take a picture manually I don't have to unlock my phone but when I tell Siri to take a picture it wants me to unlock my iPhone :/

    If you have Touch ID enabled, holding your finger on the Home button to activate Siri will also unlock the phone.

  • Living overseas and want to unlock iphone

    I am living overseas for 2 years with the peace corps and I would really love to be able to use my iphone with a carrier here, but it is currently locked. Verizon is frustratingly hard to contact to get anything answered! Is there any way I can get my phone unlocked to use while i am abroad?

        Greetings from back home in the U.S., ardpcaff! I hope you're having a pleasant stay. I'm sorry to see that you're not able to use your iPhone with a local carrier. It's true that the device has a default "locked" setting against usage on most foreign wireless providers. While we do offer some options for a "locked" device, we are unfortunately unable to help after the fact. If you do plan to return to the U.S. temporarily over the next 2 years, please reach out to Customer Service for assistance with your device. Thanks!

  • I want to buy iPhone 5 64 gb The problem I'm in Saudi Arabia  Can you pay the money directly from MasterCard to Apple Then send the iPhone by Aramex or dhl directly to Saudi Arabia

    I want to buy iPhone 5 64 gb
    The problem I'm in Saudi Arabia
    Apple UK site can not be shipping outside the uk
     Can you pay the money directly from MasterCard to Apple
    Then send the iPhone by Aramex or dhl directly to Saudi Arabia
    Thanks

    However many people contact Apple support for there is nothing that either they or you can do.
    Apple stores online do NOT provide international shipping, end of story.
    If you want an unlocked iPhone 5, you will either have to wait until they are available nearer to you or you need to physically travel to the UK and purchase an unlocked iPhone 5 there.  Rememeber though about warranty issues - not international so it means you'll have to physically return to the UK if anything goes wrong with the phone.
    If you have a friend travelling to the UK, then they could purchase one for you and then you could put a local Saudi nano sim card in the phone when they become available over there.
    Other than that, just be patient and wait until they become available.

    No, you can't do what you want. Apple will only ship a US iPhone to a verified billing/shipping address in the US.

  • I PURCHASED A IPHONE 4 IN SAN FRANCISCO FROM BEST BUY FOR USD 650 WITHOUT CONTRACT. I WANT TO UNLOCK THE PHONE TO USE IN INDIA AS IT IS LOCKED AT THE MOMENT

    i purchased a iphone 4 in san francisco from a best buy for 649.99 usd without contract. the phone is however locked and i want it to be unlocked by apple officially. please help

    Apple does not unlock iPhones, only the carrier that it is locked to can do that. Contact them. If you were sold a phone that was supposed to be unlocked when you purchased it (which is what it sounds like) you should contact Best Buy.
    Best of luck.
