Is There Hope For My Iphone? Help! by Nobody: 6:01pm On Jan 05, 2012
My iphone4 was purchased, partially unlocked with a gevey sim and i could make and receive calls and browse the net. Then i made the mistake of upgrading to ios5 in order to get facetime. Now the thing does not make or receive calls or browse. It was sha reunlocked partially at computer village so i can at least access the apps and contacts. They say they dont yet have the technology to fix the sim approval / access problem though.What do i do?

I WILL CONTINUE TO WARN YOU ALL, IF YOU DONT KNOW D THEORY OF HOW GEVEY UNLOCKING WORKS, STAY AWAY FROM IPHONE4 OR BUY A FACTORY UNLOCKED IPHONE4,RATHER BUY A 3GS.

I'm sure the partial reunlocking is HaCtivating the fone which will give u access to the apps but becos they might not use d official sim, u wont get pust alerts on ur apps if browsing thru WIFI.

ur only hope is to be lucky that ur iphone4 is locked to a carrier that offers unlock cos there's no software or hardware unlock for ios5 bb.
check ur about page for d model number. BTW how did they activate for u? was it thru d official sim or thru cydia? if thru official sim, check the carrier at the about page.

Im sorry, i dont really know how they reunlocked my phone to make the apps work but no recognization of my mtn sim. The phone was made in America but it came locked.I had to send it to computer village to be unlocked.when unlocked it could browse ,receive and make calls. i then later updated to ios5 and problems started.The carrier is now - carrier lab 11.0. Can Gevey Ultra sim fix my phone?

^^ just checked apple database. U av warranty till sept 25,2012 which means it was activated with the original sim for the first time on sept 26,2011. So u can now move to know d network it's locked to. U need to contact me on dat. At least there's still hope that u can unlock your iPhone permanently so it will never lock again and u say bye bye to Gevey.

To everyone out there who may havethe same problem thats monitoring this thread, I have given tumbaba a call and it seems like calling him was my best option so far. I searched around thenet for better deals but those sites that promise free permanent unlock are scam sites. My advice is that you give tumbaba a call as he checked my phone models unlockability capability and was 100% correctabout the stats of my phone plus the colour and memory space specs!Those scam websites claim to help but even when u put a fake IMEI number they will claim ur phone is unlkockable.I have commited my funds to tumbaba and he has promised me that my phone willbe permanently unlocked and he is a trustworthy guy .The price for unlocking the iphone by asking permission from Apple directly is expensive and varies depending on what carrier ur phone is locked to but, its Apple so its tobe expected.I will update when my phone is fixed as i was promised by tumbaba that it would take a week.So thru my experimentation u guys will know whether he is worth contacting.

Unlock in progress.
Re: Is There Hope For My Iphone? Help! by Nobody: 10:30pm On Jan 11, 2012
Your iPhone has been unlocked. Call me to tell u what to do. U are not picking.
Re: Is There Hope For My Iphone? Help! by Nobody: 10:22am On Jan 12, 2012
ALL HAIL Tumbaba and his agents in the UK! my iphone is fully unlocked and I even got a congratulatory message from Apple when I plugged my phone to itunes. If you need ur phone unlocked PERMANENTLY. You now know who to call(at a price of course). He is an honest businessman and i will recommend anybody to him. Help me praise God o! my phone dey work!
Re: Is There Hope For My Iphone? Help! by Nobody: 10:36am On Jan 12, 2012
^^^ congrats bro. Now u don't need to fear apple anymore. Now when u connect ur iphone to iTunes and u see a pop up MSG that u need to upgrade to a new iOS, the only thing to worry about is IF YOU ARE JAILBROKEN, U WILL LOOSE ONLY THE JAILBREAK BUT U WILL NEVER LOOSE YOUR NETWORK AGAIN.If u don't care about jailbreak, obviously u av nothing to loose.
