purchased from qatar Starlink Company dont know actually is it autherized or not

They are not. According to the Apple web site, Vodaphone and Ooredoo are the only Apple Authorized iphone sellers in Qatar.


You bought a used iPhone, not a retail new iPhone.

You bought a gray market phone intended for use in the USA. Return it for a refund. As verification what is the model number?

it is not carrier locked one beacuse am using my sim, i purchsed from qatar and using in india

It will probably lock the first time you reset or update it. The phone was probably hacked to bypass SIM lock, but the bypass is temporary.


What is the model number? And what does it say for Carrier Lock when you go to Settings/General/About?
