Does my iphone need to be unlocked for net10?

I have an iphone 4s and i need service on it As soon as possible i have been struggling to unlock it its too much work and i have no clue on how to do it and straight talk wants my phone to be unlocked and i just don't know how to do that i tried alot of things and none of them worked so now i'm wondering if net10 makes you have your phone unlocked? (The phone is from AT&T)

All carriers who have "Bring Your Own Phone" programs require your phone to be unlocked. Net10, like Straight Talk, will require you to unlock your phone.

If your phone is out of contract, I suggest you get in touch with your old carrier and ask that they unlock it. They usually will.

Another option would be to pay to have your phone unlocked. There are a number of companies that focus on unlocking phones. Do some research through Google to see who's the best in the space.

If you want to try to unlock your phone yourself try using http://www.releasemycode.com/ to find the specific unlock code for your phone.

  • Will jailbreaking iPhone fix Net10's data cap? I have a iPhone 4s and I heard that Net10 caps data at 1.5GB. If I jailbreak the phone, would that be a workaround to have truly unlimited data? I know you can change the APN to get MMS to work. BTW, only AT&T, Straighttalk and Net10 works where I live. I would have to drive 50 plus miles for others to work. Which is out of the question!
  • Why ain't my iPhone working on net10? I have a AT&T iPhone 4S 16gb I never got it unlocked, I went too net10 and asked if I can get my phone activated and they said they can activate for me even without unlocking my iPhone, so I bought the service it was $50 for unlimited talk/text/web (etc), they put I'm the SIM card and everything was working fine, a few hours later I try going on the Internet and it says it can't connect? Everything stopped working… I can only make calls, what do I do?
