I was about to post the exact same thing lol
Understood a 1.3% of whatever I just saw
Lmao
huaaa lol a malaysian
I'm so glad I across @Hex_Hacker09 via IG got my device unlocked permanently.👍
OMG Perhaps I could have understood the explanation with a degree in wireless technology.
The young man delivering the message spoke very clearly especially with ESL but technically the message was too difficult for the average wireless user.
I am probably that average wireless user.🤔

i had a stroke while using my brain cells
Lol this guy stole word-for-word from an Ask Maggie article. Great work.
so if i buy a locked device and insert the sim card from that carrier, but from a different device. The devicei bough will fully function? with no issues?(Pls dont bash me im just trying to get a complete understanding of this)
Great video man. Taught me a whole lot. Can’t believe all the idiots out there that break somebody’s balls for having an accent. You are awesome for knowing more than one language.
Unlocked mobiles will get regular software updates. Tell me brother
Do you I have to stick with the carrier that I buy a smartphone from?
Not really
Where did u go
if a phone is locked can i still use it normally and also can i connect it the phone to any wifi?
Yes just find out what carrier it is locked to and use it through that carrier.
Can we still use the device (cdma locked) on Wifi only and can still be updated to the latest android version from the manufacturer?
Yes you can use phone it will work fine but update will get unsuccessful
@@ahsanstocks7285 so if the phone is locked you can still use it and connect to any wifi?
@@fazo0623 yes it will work like a normal phone but no sim network will work nowadays wifi is everywhere so it's pretty much useable
What if i buy an iphone in america which is GSM unlocked, can i put philippine sim card on it, will it work,?
Thank you so much
if u dont pay ur lphone phone bill will they lock It?
No you just can send pictures and use data
I still had to trust the apple unlocking process and reactivation process, so glad it worked for my iPhone 12 pro..
Thank you.
Some iphones will work on GSM and CDMA.
Locked and blacklisted phone is the same or what is the difference?
Blacklisted phone means it was reported lost, stolen or has an unpaid balance on th ephone meaning the phone will remain locked until bill is paid in full or the original owner reclaims there lost or stolen phone and provides proof it is there device to there wireless carrier.
In India the phones sold to us never come with unlocked and unlocked term. But still we can use any sim cards in India so is it unlocked or something else. I mean ehat term is relevant for those phones?
Sounds good
I have Alcatel Jetterbug flip phone from best buy (from USA), with gratecall call network. I would like to unlock the phone and use india's Airtel network. Is this possible?
Hey
Reach out to Lusectoolz at ¡g for help.....
@@edmabilangan1588 How to contact him?
cant you just take the sim card out and then put your own sim card in? im confused
Kinda you'd probably have to have an unlocked sim card
No. It won't work
My brain is fried
If I get a unlocked iPhone can I get it turned on at at&t
So if its lock you can still use the phone ?
🤓
Can a locked us phone work outside USA say Africa or Asia
I think you have to unlock it to use the sim card of that country. US plan either does not work there or it is very expensive due to roaming charges.
Not true anymore in USA. You can unlock a lock phone now.
Driving in New York City, NYC am I alowed to update my phone if it’s unlocked
Can I use wifi on unlock phone
I want to buy this phone off Ebay. "Samsung Galaxy Note 8 N950U 64GB GSM Unlocked Smartphone AT&T T-Mobile Verizon" Does that mean I can get any prepay SIM card at the store and use it in this phone? Any help would be appreciated. I don't want to pay hundreds of dollars for a phone only to find out I can't use it.
I believe it would have to be a GSM Carrier Network and you would still have to subscribe to a GSM carrier plan (most do not require signing a contract) but still BE CAREFUL!
Bro. I don't even know what a SIM card is
Nice
try @t if your service provider screws you and doesn't want to unlock your phone for you :P
I’m so damn angry my phone is locked to cricket wireless… I wanna switch to mint mobile
Super informational and helpful, but my squirrel brain keeps get distracted buy his hand emphasizing every single syllable he speaks LOL then if he really wants to make a point, a second hand appears! Not dissing, just distracting :D
I get his point, in general. I would be better if there are illustrations, not just accronyms that immediately fades
Awesome ! learned a lot ! :)
Is it good idea to unlock my iPhone
good vid, deserves more views.
sauved0 lol
me no understanddddddd
I’m even more confused after watching this😒
What? So if it's lock you can only used wifi
Contact spyroberto on iG
which language is this ?
I understand N O T H I N G
Too much jargons
whut ?!?
I don’t understand you
dude j get to the point
we got this shit on lahK!
So if your phone is locked does that just mean you can't call or text on it?
watermelon 4ever you can still text, but calling does not work and unless your paying a plan with the sim carrier you will not have any service when out and about and not being connected to a WiFi source.👍
@@finnmacrae717 so can you later on unlock your phone if you have it locked
ayan bedri yes
Can’t understand you.
Byron Welichko Maybe you should learn English then buddy. Just because somebody has a thick accent doesn’t mean you should break their balls. I can guarantee you one thing the guy in the video is way smarter than you are.
