Hi Folks,
purchased an iphone on ebay whilst in OZ which has had a full factory restore after being on an OZ network (apparantly)... SO it is saying No SIM card installed insert a valid SIM with no PIN lock to activate iPhone. Seems simple right??? Well I have taken it into Vodafone and Telecom stores and they have tried their unlocked SIM's to no avail... I have even tried my OZ Vodafone SIM to no avail. I have tried the recovery thing on itunes but AGAIN it says insert valid unlocked SIM blah blah blah....
I am now beggining to think it is either locked to an OZ network or was actually stolen and has been like fully locked or something. Is there a way to get this thing unlocked and working???? What's this "jail breaking" I hear about? If poss would like to avoid ringing around Optus, Vodafone, Telstra in Australia to getting unlocked.
CHEERS!
