Why Unlock Your iPhone?

-------------------

Unlocking your iPhone provides numerous benefits:

2. Global Roaming: Use local SIM cards while traveling abroad, saving you money on international rates.

3. Sell for More: Unlocked iPhones retain their value better than locked ones.

Materials Needed:

--------------

* Your iPhone

* A working computer with internet access

Step-by-Step Instructions:

---------------------------

### Step 1: Back Up Data and Turn Off iPhone

Before proceeding, make sure to:

1. Backup all data on your device.

2. Connect your phone to a trusted computer using an USB cable.

Turn off your iPhone completely by pressing the Sleep/Wake button until it shuts down entirely.

### Step 2: Enter Recovery Mode

1. Press and hold both the Volume Down (-) and Sleep/Wear Home buttons at the same time.

2. Keep holding these keys until you see a small 'iTunes' icon on screen, which indicates your iPhone has entered recovery mode.

### Step 3: Open iTunes or Apple ID/Settings App (depending on iOS version)

For earlier versions of iOS:

1. Connect your iPhone to your computer via USB cable.

2. Launch iTunes and select your device from the top-left corner.

For later versions of iOS:

1. Press and hold 'Slide to Power Off' at the bottom until a small slider appears.

2. Slide it towards right, then tap on 'Emergency Restart.'

3. Now go back to Settings > 'Your Name' > Password & Devices (or simply settings icon > General > About).

4. Tap 'Reset All Content and Data.'

### Step 5: Follow On-Screen Instructions

Follow the prompts on screen until you reach the 'Restore iPhone' or 'Update iPhone' option.

Choose either option depending upon whether your device has already been updated before:

- If yes, choose 'Restore iPhone.'

- If no, select 'Update iPhone' and follow instructions to update your iOS version completely. Once finished, proceed with step 6 below.

### Step 7: Complete Setup Process

Follow on-screen prompts until you reach the 'Enter Passcode' or 'Don't Have a Code?' screen:

1. Tap 'Forgot Passcode.'

2. Enter any previously used passcodes (if prompted).

3. If none work, tap 'Restore iPhone' and select your backup file to restore all data.

### Step 8: Go Back to SIM Card Settings

1. Go back to the 'Settings' app.

2. Scroll down until you see 'Cellular & Itinerary.'

3. Tap on it once more if necessary (depending upon your device's iOS version).

### Step 9: Enter Your PUK Code

PUK stands for Personal Unblocking

1. Look for a small 'SIM' icon at the top right corner of this screen.

2. Tap on it to open 'SIM Card' settings.

3. Scroll down until you see an option that says something like 'Enter PUC/PIN code or Default SIM card.'

4. Enter your 8-digit PUK code carefully - there are only ten attempts before permanent lockout!

Once the correct PUK is entered, your iPhone's SIM will be unlocked and ready for use with any compatible carrier.
