How to: Run Your iPhone 4S on T-Mobile
According to Michael Capozzi, he’s found a work around that allows you to unlock your iPhone 4S (iPhone 4 and 3GS included!) to work on T-Mobile or any other SIM card carrier. It seems a little sketchy even though there’s a demo video (below) showing this method to prove true. But anyway, if you’ve got a T-Mobile Sim card on you or a SIM card from a different carrier, you may want to try this out to see if it’s actually legit or not.
- Insert original carrier AT&T SIM card.
- Dial 611 for AT&T customer service hotline then drop the call.
- Turn on Airplane Mode.
- Take out AT&T SIM card.
- Insert T-Mobile SIM card.
- Make sure WiFi is off (also tap on ‘Forget this Network” to make sure it doesn’t connect automatically later).
- Switch off Airplane Mode and iPhone will search for network. This is followed by the Apple splash screen appearing.
- Activation Required will be displayed on the screen.
- EDGE network will activate automatically – notice the ‘E’ on the top left corner of the screen.
- Wait for about 20-30 seconds and turn off the phone.
- Turn on iPhone and the same Activation Required screen will be displayed.
- When you see one signal bar, tap on Use Cellular Connection.
- Eject SIM card.
- Activation Required screen will be displayed the second time.
- Insert SIM card.
- Unlocked!
Let us know how it worked for you if you tried it!
