Bought a Brand New Stolen Iphone 4s Today?
Ok so i bought a brand new sealed iPhone 4s it was told it was stolen i was just wondering if ii can still use it its locked to bell i'm with telus i was wondering if i got it unlocked and put my sim card in it if everything would be ok?
No, if a phone is reported stolen, its put on an international blacklist
its illegal for any wireless company in the world to activate it on their network
if it was "brand new" I would take it back to where you bought it from.
Nope, once its been blacklisted that it. Basically all networking on the phone shuts down so no matter what you do you will never be able to call/text/email/use app store etc. Basically anything that needs internet or network won't work. Why buy a stolen phone? I know it may be cheaper but do you not wonder why stolen phones are cheaper? I'd take it back to where you bought it from and ask for your money back. If that doesn't work get rid. Its about as useful as a chocolate fireguard.
If it was sealed then I doubt it was reported stolen…
Yes it will be ok if you unlock this. You can easily unlock this by a gevey sim.
- Stolen iPhone 6 brand new sealed? So my neighbor bought a brand new sealed iPhone 6 (virgin mobile). It was delivered to his address but it was stolen before he had a chance to receive it. Is their anyway he can track the iPhone when someone activates it? Or any chances of recover it?
- My iPhone got stolen so I ordered a new one, the person then gave it back. Can I sell my new iPhone? I had my iPhone stolen at a campground. I deactivated it and failed a claim to get a new iPhone. The person that stole it then turned it in. Since I have my iPhone back can I sell the new one to a friend?
- I just bought a brand new iPhone 5c and it keeps freaking out how can I fix this? I notice that mainly when it's pluged into the charger I'll go to open one thing and it opens another or it freezes or I'll press on one letter and it'll type another one I just bought it completely brand I've reset it several times turned it on and off my phones complety up to date
- I can't connect to 3g on my iPhone 4s that I got brand new today? When I go to setting>network it only shows cellular data, data roaming, personal hotspot(which isn't doing anything but loading for an eternity), VPN, and Wi-Fi. How to i get the enable 3g setting to appear? This is stressing me out
