Is my iphone 5 locked or unlocked?
I bought a Iphone 5 from my aunt.
It's brand new. Never been activated.
She got the phone from tmobile, but never used it.
I'm not "techy" at all. I feel silly even asking this question.
I DO NOT want to go with tmobile. The service will not work at my house. I live in the sticks. & i spoke with a rep about it.
When i go to "carriers" on my phone, it gives me the choice to choose between tmobile or AT&T for "Network Selection"… Is it supposed to do that?
Does that mean my phone is unlocked?
I was hoping to use the phone on Straight Talk.
Any input would help!
That doesn't mean your phone's unlocked. It's showing all the possible GSM carriers which can be had when roaming or if that particular carrier of yours is not available at that area. If your SIM is T-Mobile, it will take T-Mobile signal only. Take a different SIM and try it. As for StraightTalk, buy a SIM from them compatible for T-Mobile phones and you won't need to unlock your phone (most of the time).So don't wait, grab the SIM.
No it is not unlocked. Just because it gives you the option doesn't mean it will work when selected.
- Why does my unlocked iPhone 3GS stay locked? I jailbroke it with redsnow, unlocked it with Ultrasnow a million times over and it remains locked. Using baseband version 05.13.04 with 5.1.1 iOS. Calls and text work fine, but no data, no matter what. Use Wi-Fi in my house, but that's all i can use. I've spent a week doing this over and over and nothing seems to work. Tried dozens of videos online, countless blogs and i followed every, single step x amount of times. Using straight talk right now, should I try T-mobile maybe?
