Bought a Locked T-Mobile iPhone? Unlock it now!

Switching gadgets is a costly habit, particularly when the top iPhones can cost upwards of $1,000. Mid-range alternatives have become much more affordable in recent years, but purchasing a secondhand phone is another excellent method to save money.

Used. It’s a term with negative connotations: “we’ve used it up, it’s no longer good.” That’s presumably why so many businesses that sell old goods use the term “pre-owned.” Aside from the scary phrase, purchasing a secondhand phone does not have to be an unpleasant experience.

What You’ll Need Before Unlocking a Used T Mobile iPhone

1. Most mobile phones allow you to accomplish this by inserting a SIM card from a network other than your current carrier. If the only option offered when the “Network Locked” screen appears is to dismiss, you may be unable to unlock your phone. Calling your network may provide limited possibilities provided you can prove ownership of the phone and that the last account to which it was linked is in good standing.
   
2. Is your IMEI/MEID on a blacklist? Most of the time, this will only be a problem if you bought the phone from a third party or have account troubles with your network.
   
3. Before attempting to unlock an iPhone, ensure that you have all of the necessary Apple credentials. If you unlock an iPhone without knowing the password for the iCloud account associated with the device, you run the risk of being unable to use the iPhone again in the future.

Unlocking Used T Mobile iPhone

Since you bought your device used, you will typically be required to obtain the necessary password from the previous owner or have the previous owner sign out of iCloud, erase the device, and remove it from their device list before you can use it.

Alternatively, you could ask the previous owner to provide you with the password. In the event that you do not succeed, or in the very unlikely event that your iPhone arrived with an activation lock from an authorized Apple vendor.
