If I update my illegally unlocked iPhone, will it still function as a phone?
My Mom sent an iPhone from the States to the Philippines and made me unlock it illegally. I heard I'm not supposed to update it or it won't work as a phone anymore
Is this true?
I think you r talking about Gevy chip unlock which is treated as illegal. Its only illegal to Apple not to outsider. If you upgrade your phone with it your phone wil be locked and you may need to buy next new chip or get factory unlock it.
I'm not sure… Of what you are referring as illegal… Anyways if the unlock is a temporary one. Then yes, you should not update it. If you do, then there are chances that you may loose the network unlock status. There are legal and permanent unlocks available like the one from http://www.simpleunlocking.com/apple-iphone/rs16wp9/ where they use the remote unlcok service. If you want aid in this type of unlock refer http://www.mobileunlockguide.com/apple-iphone

- What would happen if you downloaded something illegally? Okay so this amazing thing on an IPhone lets you download old games and puts it on a gameboy pad and lets you play it (for example ZELDA) and when I downloaded it it said this " please confirm if you own or are downloading this legally" the app/website didn't ask me for a email or anything it just let me download the game. Would this get me in trouble? Or no?
- IOS 7 UPDATE: Can I still update my unlocked iPhone? So I went to a friends phone retail store he unlocked my iPhone through a company wich gives u the code to unlock and then he connected it wit Net10 (AT&T). Pretty sure it was a legal unlock MY QUESTION IS: can I still update my iPhone 4S to IOS 7 even though my iPhone is unlocked? Because if I do I'm worried my carrier settings wuld erase and I wouldn't have a line with Net10 any more.
