I bought an Iphone 5 (Carrier: Sprint / model A1249) and I want to use it in France. Can I without any problems?
Hi everyone,
First, I want to apologize about my bad english, I'm french.
So today, I bought on Ebay an Iphone 5 64 Giga, Model A1249 MD668LL/A, and apparently simlocked. That's why the seller sold it with a R-sim6 cards.
Here is the information some IMEI website checker told me about it:
Warrantly: Active
Technical support: Active
Resgistered Status: Yes
Activated Status: Yes
Purchase Date: Validated
Sim Lock status: Locked
So, that's mean until I don't use the r-sim in it, I can't use my phone with any other nanosim than the sprint one?
is they're any way to unlock my phone without this r-sim and legally?
I saw some website about unlocking directly your iphone 5, but it's a bit expensive. Is it legal? Can apple helped me about this?
Thanks you.
Alex.
