Dec 21, 2014 8:28 AM in response to MaxKromeby wegras,Most liklely explanation is the iPhone was originally locked to the Carrier who sold iPhone new .It was jailbroken to remove that carrier lock ,however when the iPhone is updated with a new iOS level it will automatically return the iPhone to a carrier locked status
You will have to determine who that carrier is and only they can release it

Be warned that a phone that was hacked to unlock it may become unable to process a legitimate unlock or be activated even on the carrier it's locked to.
