iPhone 4 5.1 Searching/No service FIX ? - GSM-Forum

Miker · 05-06-2012, 18:31

I got an iPhone 4 with 5.1 firmware just got it FACTORY UNLOCKED . . . in iTunes it says that my phone is now unlocked.

Now i only get Searching ... / No service with any SIM

Tried to restore the phone several times
Tried to activate it with different sim card
Tried to Revert Lockdown to stock from SAM
Tried to detele Lockdown folder
NOTHING WORKED

NOTE: Before doing the Factory Unlock my phone was unlocked with SAM.

ANY SUGGESTIONS ?

iPhone 4

1. Locked on France Bouygues
2. Used SAM to unlock it so it could work on Orange Romania
3. I had to flash it and activate with Franc Bouygues so i can do Factory Unlock
4. FActory Unlock done . iTunes says that YOU PHONE HAS BEEN UNLOCKED
5. Tried reflash / revert lockdown to stock(even deleted lockdown folder) / tried to activate with 5 different SIM cards
6. I still get No Service ... Searching... in looping
7. Checked imei and phone is unlocked
