How to unlock an iphone 5 from Mexico to use in canada?

If I bought a used iphone 5 locked to telcel "America movil" a mexican provider, how do I get it unlocked or whatever process to use it in canada such as Rogers or bell?

Hi, ask the original carrier - in this case America movil. If you are not the original owner, ask the original owner. In case of this carrier you would (or him) to visit their shop / customer center. If you can't do that and your phone is a 16GB version, there's one another option (but only for iPhone 5 16GB), a worldwide factory unlocking method such as this http://www.flyunlock.com/worldwide-unlock-any-carrier

I have experience with this specific carrier and I was never able to track the original owner of an iPhone. They would unlock it for free if you visited them, but since I'm not from Mexico, I had hard times unlocking it. So the only success I had with this carrier was the WW Unlocking method.

  • How to use my iphone in Mexico with out extra charges? I'm going to spend a day in Mexico next week, how can I keep any calls or messages coming in so that I won't get charged? I would still like to use Wi-Fi if it is available somewhere. Is this possible? I tried it on airplane mode at my house (where there's Wi-Fi) and I wasn't able to go on the Internet. So is there any way I can do that or will I just not use Internet on my Iphone?
