Bought a iPhone 5s bad esn reported missing?
So basically my older brother lost his iphone at a party and had insurance so he paid for a replacement one and later on like a week later his friend found his lost phone and my brother sold it to me since he got a new one through the mail but I was wondering if there's anyway I can connect it to my line since my phone is broken we both have sprint
Bad esn means you can never use it as a phone. You could use it as an ipod touch.
No, a blacklisted (bad esn) phone is unless as a phone forever, ask him for your money back.
If you can remove the blacklist from the phone, you can use it on Sprint again. There are ways to get around it. If you need help with getting the phone unblocked, mail me for references.
- Should i buy a bad esn iphone and use it with gsm carrier? I wanna buy myself an iphone 4s from ebay. I live in bosnia and we only have GSM carriers. I noticed that verizon or sprint "bad esn" iphones are much cheaper so, should i buy that phone and unlock it to my network or should i gather more money and buy myself a new factory unlocked one?
- Is buying a iPhone with Bad ESN bad? I want to buy an iPhone 4 or 4s but it says bad esn. I'm not going to activate the phone to any provider. I just want it for Wi-Fi for home use. Is it bad to buy it or okay?
- I reported my verizon iphone lost how can i get the esn off the black list? I reported my verizon iphone lost but i found it, since i paid for a new one using my insurance thru verizon i want to sell the old one how can i get the esn removed from the black list
- I found my iphone I had reported missing. Now what? I lost my iphone 5 at a party and now that the snow has melted, it was found. I already paid the $200 to at&t and got a new one. Can I keep it, sell it, return it? It's in perfectly working order.
