Factory unlock iPhone 5 contract?
So I got a pay monthly contract iPhone 5 on O2. The phone contract will expire in a few Month and I was thinking if its possible to factory unlock it before the contract its expired, and if I can unlock it before the contract expires will O2 blacklist my iPhone 5?
By my understanding if the phone is from a company an you try to flash it to another company this can only be done once, if O2 sold you the phone, with the contract then they should not blacklist you unless you bought the phone from someone else and flashed it to O2, unlocking is mainly if your switching services it's a 50/50 chance they will black list you
I used www.unlock-4.me to unlock my iPhone couple months back, it is free but if you donate you get your unlock instant. I didn't have a problem, you are even able to update your phone unlike if you were to jailbreak it. I'd definitely go check them out. You won't get black listed using unlock-4.me it is 100% safe.
- Will iPhone be off contract if you factory unlock it? Let's say… If I bought an AT&T iPhone 5 and I factory unlocked it through an online paid service, for instance www.imzdl.com, will the contract end? I'm not an American citizen, so I'm not so good at this stuff: P.
- Will factory unlocking my iPhone break its contract with my service provider? I bought the iPhone 5 for $199.It's on contract, so it's not only locked to AT&T for two years, but I'm required to pay monthly for the use of this phone for two years. I'm interested in buying the factory unlock on ebay, but I want to know if the contract is going to break with AT&T.

- Is there a difference? Icloud unlock & factory unlock? I've never had an iPhone, what's the difference in factory unlock & icloud? I've seen something about original owners, is it impossible for me to get an unlocked iPhone and simply make a new account and place a sim card inside?
