Sep 4, 2012 9:53 PM in response to iSurf1234by brad805,My experience with ATT unlock is that it is immediate. They say it will take maybe a day to enter, but all mine have been right away. The only step is to Restore the iPhone. Apple has nothing to do with it, only ATT.

Sep 4, 2012 11:54 PM in response to dani4576by wegras,an iPhone is either locked to a carrier or unlocked ie useable with any suitable carrier anywhere
No halfway status
An iPhone is only locked where the carrier has subsidised the purchase price at new or that
was the the criteria required by the carrier when the they took on the iPhone as a product

Sep 5, 2012 3:30 AM in response to brad805by iSurf1234,Hey Brad thanks for replying. Do you have an AT&T sim card? When you say the phone was immediately unlocked, does that mean you were able to access the APN (Access Point Name)?
Thanks

Sep 5, 2012 3:35 AM in response to MAE0125by iSurf1234,Hey
I called AT&T and they confirmed it was unlocked. However, I am unable to access the APN (Access Point Name) settining under network. Do you or anybody else know if you have to have an AT&T sim card?
I currently have a straight talk sim, but I use to be a AT&T customer therefore they granted me approval to unlock my phone. Does anyone know if this is a problem?

Sep 5, 2012 3:41 AM in response to iSurf1234by Nathan-D,I have read that if the iPhone in question has ever been jailbroken, it will never be able to succeed with the AT&T unlock.

Sep 5, 2012 8:49 AM in response to iSurf1234by stevejobsfan0123,I think you need an AT&T SIM until the unlock is complete.
You might also want to note that StraightTalk is not a supported carrier. Not all features will work.

Sep 10, 2012 6:14 AM in response to iSurf1234by SenseiPhone,You will need to put non-AT&T SIM Card inside the iPhone before performing restore.
So when iTunes doing activation for the first time, it will see other SIM card then returned an 'unlocked' status for your iPhone.
Non-AT&T customers can't get unlock from at&t easily, even an exisiting customers couldn't either, so a simple search on google "unlock at&t imei senseiphone" will help those who cannot unlock AT&T iPhones normally.
For APN settings, open up unlockit.co.nz from the iPhone => Continue => Custom APN =>
Country "United States" and Carrier "Straight Talk" =>
create profile, then install the profile.Hope it helps!
