Hello everyone!
I need a clever answer! Is It possible to use the IPhone 4 which is sale in the chinese apple stores with the Russian Sim card in the worldwide?
When I inserted the Russian SIM card into IPhone 4 it shows me massege the SIM card cannot be used.
How I can fix it?

thanks a lot
iPhone 4, MD128CH/A
There are 2 carriers in China that sell the iPhone. If it was bought from China Telecom the phone is locked and they do not offer unlocking. If bought from China Unicom their phones are unlocked. Guess you got one from China Telecom and will not work in Russia.
thanks for soonest answer I need realy help
I saw it in the apple store autorized vendor and I inserted the SIM into IPhone, SIM cannot be read. The vendor said it is sim free (unlocked). the SIM is good I checked. I dont understand how it is work! But I sharply need the IPhone 4. That way I need clever answer then I will get it. I hope.
Please acceptable any suggestions.
If it's not reading the sim then it is NOT sim free / unlocked. Only place to get the phone if from one of the carriers noted above or a true Apple store. Not an 'autorized vendor'. If you haven't bought it yet.. DON'T. If you have bought it, return it for a refund as it is not unlocked as you were told.
Good luck.
thanks for warning. I will not.
So, could you advice where in China I can get unlocked IPhone 4? I am in Ningbo.
From a true Apple Store. Check here: http://www.apple.com/retail/storelist/ and select China. Or try a China Unicom store. Confirm before you leave the store that it will work with your Russian sim card.
Also note that if you do buy in China, All warranty and support will have to be done in China. If the phone develops a warranty issue you will need to ship the phone to China to someone you know to be taken in for service. You will not be able to ship directly to Apple and all shipping will be at your expense.
