I have a old Iphone 5 and it is locked for another 15 years yeah no kidding I was able to update through itunes. But it did not unlock it it got locked when it went to the daughters and it is a nice phone to give to my granddaughter. I need help unlocking it so she can use it for her videos and to use it as a phone again.
