IPhone :: Remove SIM Lock Directly From Apple?
Apr 30, 2012
If someone buy an iphone via Ebay (or other online trade site), and its locked to a foreign provider, is it possible to ask Apple to remove the sim lock directly? I know Apple in contract with providers, but an example:I get an iPhone from US (as an european person). It locked for one of US providers. I can activate it (if I have original provider's SIM or on CDMA network), but nothing else. So I get an iPod (in good case). To use this device, I must go to US, stay there for many months, make a contract with the provider, and after many waiting, they may unlock it for other fees (or not). As anyone can see, this is not a working way.So if the phone is clear (were on good standing on original provider, not reported as stolen device etc.) is it possible to request unlock directly from Apple (for fee)I know there's unofficial methods to unlock the iPhone,

I installed LockInfo a while ago. I got everything working fine, downloaded it and plugins fine. I got them all from the same repo as I was advised to do that, and everything seemed to be working fine. Everything was up to date etc.
I received an SMS, and instead of it appearing under the SMS on LockInfo, which it does, it appears as well by the annoying Apple notification box.
I still want my phone to light up when I received a text message and the text message to be displayed under the SMS tab in LockInfo, but how do I get rid of the Apple notification box? I saw when configuring the app there was some thing about quick replying to texts and there was a list to choose form. Would any of those get rid of the Apple alert?

So its nice that you can click on a notification on the lock screen then swipe and it'll open directly into that app.
The problem i'm having is when i do this sometimes it just locks the phone. Screen turns off, and nothing happens. I will then press the home button and it unlocks and goes straight into the app as if i had unlocked it the first time.
I'm running as stock as you can get on the S6. Not even a theme. I can't seem to recreate the issue at will, but it does happen often but randomly.

I have multiple Apple devices configured with multiple Apple IDs. For example:
- My i-Phone is configured with abc@domain.com as my Apple ID and the same phone is configured with xyz@domain.com as App Store ID.
- My i-Pad is also configured with abc@domain.com as my Apple ID but def@domain.com as App Store ID.
- I have few more i-Phones configured with xyz@domain.com as Apple ID.
I want: All devices to be registered with one single Apple ID abc@domain.com as Apple ID, App Store ID and iTunes ID.

I lost my iPhone today while playing soccer. I used iCloud to remotely lock the iPhone and since my device is offline right now. As soon as I put on the lock, I realized that if the person who found my iPhone finds it locked, would they be able to connect to the internet? If they can't, could I remove the remote lock so it can connect to wifi manually and let iCloud track it? Also, my phone is under the AT&T carrier in the USA, and I am currently in China and will be staying there for a few months. I have no cellphone service so iCloud will only be able to track my iPhone via wifi.
Summarize this in bullet points for those who prefer a short explaination:
-Lost iPhone
-Remotely locked it
-Want to remove the remote lock but I do not have possession of the iPhone
-Can an iPhone connect to wifi even with remote lock on?
-No service (American carrier, in China, no international plan)
-Only able to track the iPhone via wifi

I don't like this feature to be unlocked, that is why I have a passcode on my iPhone. Now, whenever my you daughter is able to get her hands on it, she fills up the memory space with random pictures. This feature would not be bad if it had the option to disable.

Do I have to reset my phone to eliminate this function? The "turn passcode off" funciton is gray'd out in the phone settings. I was prompted to put this passcode on while adding a new Exchange email account and did not recognize what I was doing. I thought the prompt related to Exchange..

My cousin just bought an iPhone 4 recently locked to AT&T and is currently living in the Philippines. He told me that if I would ask Apple, I will be able to get the pin to unlock my phone. I will be going to the Philippines as well and I need to get my phone unlocked. He contacted Apple and got the pin and got his iPhone 4 unlocked in minutes. My question is how would I get it?

I have finally found a site to unlock my E71. so u don't have to keep putting in 12345 before you can use your phone ((how annoying )) ... Download Nokia PC Suite first (the updated one) from site below ... Or if you already have it on your computer go to control panel click on add and remove then Nokia PC Suite it will ask you to install or repair click on repair and that will give you the updated version ...the only way you can remove phone lock is to update your Nokia E71s software ..But make sure you BACKUP your phone before hand or you will delete everything ..open Nokia PC Suite then click on update software takes about 15min but well worth it,you can also download the games the phone originally came with ... Solitaire etc from this site
hope it works for you I was about to throw my phone at a wall.

I have Android 5.0 and there is no option to remove the stock lock screen to make room for a third party lock screen application. I bought the mobile with 5.0 Lollipop already installed so I do not know how it was on 4.4 KitKat. I have no carrier as I am using the D855 international version of the G3. Here is what comes up when I try change the lock screen.

The lock screen just popped up on my early model blackberry curve. It has a new battery and was just tweaked by The IT person at work for my email accounts. When I left his office there was no lock screen in place. Over The weekend my battery ran out, I recharged it and now there is a lock screen. How do I turn that off so I can use my phone
