Hello All,
Yesterday I bought an iPhone 4s from some woman online.
So, this morning I took it in to the local mobile store to get a SIM card/account. No luck. She failed to mention it was blocked by another carrier.
So I am trying to unlock it, but seem to be stuck in a set-up mode loop. It goes like this:
HELLO > Choose Language > Choose Country > Set up Network (home network entered)
> "SIM Card Not Valid" > option: "Try Again" (back to Language set up) or back arrow.
I can't even get the home menu to display, otherwise I might be able to unlock it (thanks to University of Youtube).
The guy at the mobile store thought it's just a SIM-lock issue, not stolen. (Considering I have her full name and received all the original accessories, I tend to agree with him).
Please help me get back to the original menu!
Thanks!
