When I was buying it in an American Apple Store the salesperson said that it will work fine with European, Russian and any other sim-cards. But in practice I have problems with sending SMS (voice calls, 3G and receiving messages work perfectly). Perhaps I should change the number of SMS center? Is there any way to do it?
iPhone 5, iOS 6
I bought from a seller on eBay, http://www.ebay.ph/itm/261147760618?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m155 5.l2649

Hi every one,
I brought a iphone5 sprint off the contract and out of the box in US (am not sure if it is locked or unlocked) it is of clean ESN.am using R-sim 7 now. can you please help me out how can i get it unlocked i read that Sprint iphone5 can be used internationally if it is brought off the contract. can you please help. i am staying in India now.
Found solution. Had the same problem with my ATT iPhone 6 plus in Russia. Tried everything mentioned in this post and others. Nothing worked. Then this morning I was looking at my error "message nor delivered" and pressed "details" on the right top corner. My contact came up on the screen. I tried to dial it and saw that even although I changed the number from 0117 and etc. to 8(927) etc. it still dialed 0117 as if from U.S.. The solution is to completely delete the contract and create a new one with the correct number. I could not believe my luck. I stumbled on this by accident. I hope it helps others.
iPhone 5 bought in the USA does not send text messages in Russian networks
