How to unlock brand new iphone 3gs?
A friend gave me his old iphone 3gs (he's with o2) and i just went to the apple store and payed to get it replaced as it's pretty smashed up. I have brought it home with my Vodaphone sim in, and it says 'your sim card is not compatible' and can't access the phone at all. Why? And how do i unlock it!
Any help appreciated, Many thanks x
Its illegal to now, sorry
Ask your friend about getting it unlocked, through O2.
@Benny: The unlock illegality concerns new phones bought in the US after January 26th
So what if its illegal? There won't be federals standing at your door the next day… Half the phones in the world are unlocked… Anyways just go to YouTube and look up how to unlock an iPhone 3GS.
Hi, read the manual and get right advice from the apple store. If not illegal! So long.
O2 need to unlock it
Although Apple replaced it, they replaced it with an identical profile - locked to O2 still.
Only your friend (the official owner) can get it unlocked from O2.
it take a few days, and then you put it on iTunes, and it gets updated to be 'unlocked'

- Where do I sell my iPhone 5s which is brand new but it was exchanged at Apple since I broke my old iPhone 5s? So a few months ago I broke my old iPhone 5s and went to the Apple store to go exchange it for a new one. I got a iPhone 8 for Christmas and now that I can't go back to Apple to exchange it again, Where do you guys think is the best place to sell it?
- Should i get a brand new iPhone 5 or a used iPhone 5s? I was planning to get a iPad mini 2 but i changed my mind, so i'm kinda curious if i should get one of those phones.
- Should I buy a brand new iPhone 5 or a used iPhone 5s? I don't know whether i should buy a new iphone 5 or a second-hand iphone 5s. I'm from Malaysia and I have only MYR2000 in hand which is the price for an iphone 5 and also the price i can get for a second-hand 5s. I really need a phone right now I can't wait any longer because it's really important to me. Anyone? :/
- My brand new iphone won't show up on itunes when I plug it into the computer? I just bought a brand new iphone 4. I want to put my music on it. I signed into my itunes account on the computer and on the iphone. I plugged the phone into the computer, opened itunes, and it doesn't detect my iphone. What do I do? And please, don't refer me to the Apple support system. I've already tried it, it's useless.
