just by looking at this it looks like no one know the fix?
i mean when you hold the phone it works and all. it has the connect to itunes logo and when i connect it i get this. what should i do :/

seller is extremely nice. he came from richmond to vancouver and delivered it to my door so i dont want to lay the brick on him yet.

what version is iphone running on? If it is the older version of firmware you can just jailbrake and unlock it yourself. if it is the newer one you can pay some store at crystal mall to do it like $20.

I had to get the guy at crystal mall do it since my iphone was on the newer firmare. I try to do it myself. Download the older firmaware and follow the instruction online but I couldn't lol.

Or even try the phone out with your sim card at your house? Even when the seller was there?!

Just contact the seller to see what carrier it is locked on.

If not, bring it into an Apple store and see what happens.

try a different program to manage your phone? and/or unlock the phone with one of those unlock chips that go under the SIM?
