R-Sim 13/SUP and bad esn iphones
 

I am wondering if the new r-sim unlock chips work with bad esn/blacklisted iphones? Specifically the Iphone X OR xs/max, i ask this because i remember when i once had an iphone 4s that had a bad esn on at&t and i was able to use an older r-sim to unlock it and use it with t-mobile usa. I was hoping to do the same. Any luck to those who have tried?

It does when unpaid. I'm using one lol. But not if reported lost/stolen

update: for anyone who cares, i was able to get past the activation lock with the gpp LTE black card solution, but the above post was totally right, the second i inserted my tmobile sim card inside the at&t blacklisted but unlocked phone,it gave me my plan details in settings and recognized it as t-mobile but the top of the screen would still show "no service" and no calls/data/txt can be used since it is blacklisted... Welp... looks like they finally fixed it, i remember back i had the iphone 4/5s i was able to unlock it blacklisted with sprint(CDMA) and used it on tmobile's (gsm) network which was kind of awesome how it was all possible, yet now it has a dual sim and less is possible lol

It worked on the Sprint 4S because that was before Sprint had LTE (and SIMs), so they ONLY reported the preflashed CDMA ESN as stolen, not the unused SIM slot IMEI.

Applies to all phones, if a carrier belongs to the GSMA association (worldwide), the phone more likely become blackisted across all members (they share their blacklisted IMEIs among each other)

if anyone has a blacklisted verizon/sprint/CDMA iphone x/xs i would love to see the results of testing out unlock.

i have iphone 8plus red from sprint and it was unlcok using rsim12 Blck chip, but later 3 months it started to say no service, and i found it went under blacklisted... and i believe it went under due to unpaid balance, any suggestion wat i need to do to make thatiphone 8plus sprint work on tmobile again ?

help would be highly appreciated

yea, maybe that was around the time that they finally patched it :( try the rsim 13 maybe? idk

If it says no service there is nothing you can do, rsim only bypasses sim not supported
