Quote from completing : iPhone 4s has both GSM and CDMA.

yea but itts one or the other. read his post again

Quote from Devaspark : Try looking for the sim unlocks on eBay. There is a sum tray that has a chip between your sum and the iPhone that unlocks your iPhone. Take a look. Gevey is one of the brands but it is pretty expensive. Hope it helps.

i wouldnt mind paying $50 for it, except im on 04.11.08 Firmware, which isnt unlockable. Though something i heard is coming out for it... i hope it comes out before i head overseas...

No, you READ my post again.

iPhone 4S has BOTH GSM and CDMA. All iPhone 4S has both.

You might be thinking of iPhone 4 which has either GSM or CDMA, but not both.

No one really has the answer to that yet. Ask again tomorrow once everyone starts calling in LOL.

My guess is no though.

I post this a few days ago and all the haters come out. http://slickdeals.net/f/4167194-O...T-customer Now, two days later everyone is reporting that it's official and suddenly it's all happy kisses? Hope everyone from the original thread is willing to eat crow and admit they were wrong.

You right..

i cant wait to unlock my iphone 3gs=0

i just called att to find out if they will unlock it tonight since its almost 12am here in califonia. But i was told that unlocking will begin on 9th and not 8th

CDMA capable iPhone 4S are both cdma and quad band gsm.

GSM iPhone 4S are quad band gsm, but do not have cdma.

Meaning a verizon or Sprint iPhone 4S has cdma and gsm.

A att iPhone 4S has only gsm.

Just called. Rep confirmed that my phone was out of contract and there were no outstanding dues. Also asked for my IMEI number. Transferred me to tech support. Tech support sent me an e mail with a pdf attachment which contains the following instructions

To complete the unlock, simply:
1. Open iTunes on your Mac or PC and verify that you have internet connectivity.
2. Connect your iPhone using the dock connector to USB cable that came with your iPhone.
3. Backup and restore your iPhone using iTunes .
For information on backup and restore, please visit http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414.
4. After restoring, your iPhone will be unlocked.

So apparently you only have to restore your phone and itunes realizes that Apple has removed lock from your phone. There are no codes etc to enter like with other phones.
This is my personal 3G phone which I got from AT&T and was under contract for 2 years.
Rep told me you can unlock only 5 phones in 12 months. I had unlocked 2 AT&T go phones from a earlier slickdeal.

Happy unlocking to all.

I have a jail broken iphone 4. Will I need to have a non jail broken phone to get my phone unlocked?

This was your personal phone right? You had it since beginning of the 2 year contract?

I'll have to call and ask them to see if I can unlock the ones I got from my friends and ones from craigslist. They aren't tied to any account but I doubt they are over 1.5 or more years old.

It doesn't matter, you're gonna have to restore it anyway according to post above you.

Did you get a pop up after you did the restore saying your phone has been unlocked?

Haven't done it yet. Will do in the morning. I already switched to Android Galaxy S II skyrocket and really don't care much about about the iPhone anymore.
