Safe to update iOS? Sprint phone. - GSM-Forum

Hello all,

My very first post. I have been a lurker for a while and here's my first query. I bought an Sprint unlocked iPhone 6+ from eBay. I use the phone in India and it works fine. A friend of mine had a similar phone and when he factory reset it the phone re-locked. That has made me paranoid wrt upgrading iOS. My IMEI returns the following info. Initial activation policy is Sprint but next tether is Verizon. I could find no information online about a case such as this. Can someone please look at the below and tell me if it's safe to upgrade iOS without a risk that the phone would re-lock?
