How to Activate iphone for free

**mysticusa** · 07-03-2007 05:24 PM

Hey guys, just found this on the net by searching...

I personly dont have an iphone nor i m in usa

yet waiting in Uk for iphone launch

but here is stg you guys might be interested

================================================== =======
I accidently figured out how to unlock an iPhone for use without charge from AT&T, but with full support of the phones features including WiFi, but no AT&T service.

Procedure:

1.) Obtain 2 iPhones
2.) Plug in iPhone #1 In iTunes select “I am a new AT&T Wireless Customer” and “Activate 2 or more phones on an individual or FamilyTalk Plan.”
3.) Follow the steps for the FamilyTalk plan and enter “Cell Number X” to port a number over from another provider (e.g. Sprint)
4.) When the you receive the “Activation Complete” e-mail, plug in iPhone #2.
5.) Select the option “I am an existing AT&T (Cingular) wireless customer” and “Replace a phone on my account with this iPhone”
6.) Fill in the information re-using “Cell Number X.” Allow the iPhone #2 to activate using this number. This number will be legit.
7.) Plug in iPhone #2, it will unlock the phone for use, but without a cell phone number assigned or account from AT&T.

Disclaimer: I found this by sheer stupidity, as I plugged in the wrong phone during the activation processI accidently figured out how to unlock an iPhone for use without charge from AT&T, but with full support of the phones features including WiFi, but no AT&T service.

This has been around for over 24 hours now.

No Problem M8, I just cant wait this iPhone to come around here

while this community helps unlock the sim/network/country etc locks so that by the time it comes out here we can just use our current lines w/o need for extra $$$ to be paid for something i already own

Thanx to all whoever in progress

Note: I dont know how long it was around, I just wanted to share it here, as i didnt see anyone posted it here...

I dont know if u can give a non-us no or not, but the comment suggest if u can give number from another carrier it should work... if i knew the answer for sure, i would say yes, but i dont, so good luck m8...
