Hi I Bought a Apple iPhone 4 from spain, the shop seller told me that it will work back in my country Malta. When I switched it on it wouldn't work for me. I took it to mobile shops in Malta and told me that there is a software but we don't have it.

Sell your phone, and buy one that works in your country.

There are two kinds of iPhones, one that is locked to the carrier you buy it with, and one that is unlocked, ready to use on any service provider. Do you know, in U.S. dollars if you please, how much you paid for it? Another option would be to find the appropriate phone number for Apple in your area, and give them the IMEI number for your phone. This can be found by going to Settings, then General, then About, and the IMEI.
