quick question guys...
is there anyway to unlock an iphone 5s locked to bell... without waiting 3 months?
hows the process even work? what's stopping people from doing it?
im not talking about a jailbreak or some "smartass" way to do it... i want a real factory unlock.
can a bell employee just do it? do they have the power to? or can they get in trouble?

Not the ones bought through carriers. Only the iPhones from the Apple store are unlocked.

Hope this is right thread, updated newest ios 7.xxx on 4S iphone, noticed it drains battery more than before. I had ios 5 or 6 so I was use to that...
Googled online and ppl recommend to shut off some notifications, siri, speak auto, no bluetooth, etc...
Anyone recommend tips on saving battery, brightness is on average already.
Thanks!! Posted via RS Mobile |

Hey I've got a 2 month old 5c that I broke the screen on already, mac store said they would replace the phone for $279, replacing the screen is $230-$300. If I replace the screen it voids the warranty.
If anybody has any insight on how to get this fixed/replaced for cheaper it would be appreciated.

maybe try replacing it yourself? You can the parts pretty cheap online. Or go to crystal mall I am sure it will be cheaper than $200.

^Innovative I'll give them that. But now its 1 inch longer than it already is.
You're probably going to have this long term instead of switching from touch/keyboard. Now try typing while you're on public transit or while one hand is occupied. Just my thoughts...

Still looking on Craigslist for a 5S. Found an unlocked one and went
to meet the guy at a Rogers store. He shows it to me and it turns out that
it's a iPhone 5 and not an S. What the hell ?! So any best practices on buying a
5S off Craigslist ? Obviously the seller must disable 'find my iPhone' but the whole
IMEI reporting is bad news. I mean , let's say you but a ip5S off Craigslist and then
the dude reports it stolen after a few hours. How does one combat that? Posted via RS Mobile |

Unless they were asshole | There was a thread on here where someone bought a phone and 2 weeks later the seller reported it stolen. The police calls the buyer and told them to bring the phone to the police station cause if try don't, they are in possession of stolen property. So the scamming seller got the buyer's money and the phone back.
This is why I'm only going to buy phones new or from someone I know. No more CraigsList phones for me Posted via RS Mobile |

^ Only way I could see that working is if the owner had his buddy sell it and then report it stolen. I doubt someone could sell their own phone then have the police get it back. That's outright fraud and risky in the sellers part.
This is another reason why I do all my negotiations when buying/selling through text messages. Then you at least have some sort of record.
