When u say unlocked…is it factory unlocked or is it jailbroken ? If it is factory unlocked…u should not have any problem using it on Airtel’s network..If it is jailbroken…take care that you do not restore the phone to factory settings….if you do…you will not be able to use your phone

Hello everybody,

iPhone has not been available in India for last 3-4 months (from any official outlet of Airtel / Vodaphone in Delhi). And surprisingly Airtel customer care is not aware of this!!!

I just bought “Unlocked” iPhone-4 from USA and travelling back to India.
Will I face any problem or it will start working immediately after I put Airtel sim (since this is unlocked piece from USA) and I shall be able to sync with my computer.
Or I shall have to do some process…..can someone help me in this…

Thanks in advance.

hey guys…wanted to update you on the situation. Airtel finally unlocked my iPhone!! I am glad it did. All the best to the rest of you! In future, if any of you intend to buy an iphone from Airtel or Vodafone…get the terms and conditions in writing…

Hi guys,
I am in the same boat as most of you. I hate being cheated…especially after I have paid a whopping 36100Rs for this phone!! I am thinking of filing a case against Airtel for illegal trade practice and cheating. After all, I bought this phone from them only because they offered unlocking. Would any of you be interested in taking part in the class action suit against Airtel. I feel that there is strength in numbers!!

Because of all this I am even beginning to hate Apple! I want to sell off my Macbook Pro and have nothing to do with Apple!

To start with let me confirm that I have still NOT yet unlocked my iphone.

I got a mail from Airtel stating that they have unlocked it from their end and they asked me to restore my phone to factory settings which will complete the unlocking process. i tried doing that, but dint help.

I have wrote back to Airtel asking them to confirm if they have unlocked from their end.

Xavier – I will update this post with contact info of the nodal officer once I get my phone unlocked. I just want to make sure everything works right with this person.

Thanks,

I have been around all places at airtel chennai to get my phone unlocked, without any success. do you have any e-mail from airtel confirming the unlock or the contact information of the person at airtel that can get this done?

I want to go to airtel and tell them to refer with xyz.. and unlock mine.

Good news, Nodal officer just called me and informed that my iphone is unlocked. I need to restore the phones settings manually via tunes to complete the unlock. Will update after everything is done.

Thanks,

It is the showroom on 100feet road in Indiranagar (near the flyovers at 100 feet road and Airport Road intersection). My friend spoke to the store manager there (a lady if I remember well). Good luck, I know it is painful…
