How to unblock my Iphone5s ?
Hi All
I received an iPhone 5s from my friend free of cost ... Not a new one but used one and even that he was giving it to me because its been blocked and said to me if I can have it released I can use it for myself ... I asked him the reason for it being blocked and he told me that he installed some application in it and so it was blocked. I went to the Apple Store in my current residing country and they straightaway told me that the phone can be rectified only in the US and it really surprised me. Not much explanation given. Just that they cannot do anything and only has to be sent to the US.
Now I seriously do not know what has happened to this iphone but i would like to have it unblocked if its possible. Is there any way to use this Iphone ?? The friend who gave it to me already left this country few days back and it will not be possible for me to check with him anything about this phone anymore. Can someone help me with some solution. I live on the other side of the planet and no way is it possible for me to send it to the US just to have it rectified. Any help on this really appreciated.
thank you
