Is a Carrier Unlock the same as an IMEI Unlock?

No, a SIM or Carrier unlock (also known as network unlock) is totally different from an IMEI unlock. Learn with us the main differences between those two procedures that even though are available on SafeUnlocks’ website, are meant to fix different problems on your iPhone.

What is a Carrier, Network, or SIM Unlocking Process?

This kind of unlock process is meant to remove the carrier, network, or SIM lock. The SIM lock is the restriction that doesn’t let your iPhone get connected to any network but your current carrier network service, this process is also known as “opening the terminals of a phone”, and after completing the process, you’ll be able to use your phone with a different carrier at any time and use a new SIM card without a problem.

What is an IMEI unlock for?

An IMEI unlock is a procedure to remove the lock that gets activated on an iPhone when it is reported on the blacklist. This kind of lock is often confused with the carrier lock because both have to do with the connectivity of the device, but while the carrier lock only permits its usage with a SIM card of the original carrier, the IMEI lock doesn’t let you use your iPhone with any network at all.

What Benefits do I get after my iPhone or iOS device is Unlocked?

It is normal to wonder what are the punctual benefits of unlocking your device, and here we’ll highlight the principal advantages that come when an iPhone is unlocked and ready to be used with any mobile operator:

• If your iPhone is locked, its resell price decreases a lot, so if at any time you want to resell it to buy a newer version, you won’t get as much as if you were reselling an unlocked device.
• If you have SIM restrictions on your iPhone you won’t be able to take advantage of other mobile operator’s plans, prices, incentives, and benefits.
• Unlocking a phone allows you to use it with any carrier worldwide, so if you travel a lot or want to move to another country, you will still be able to use the phone with a local network provider.
• Having a locked iPhone means that your carrier controls your iOS updates, so if you unlock it, you’ll receive all iOS updates directly from Apple (iOS updates come sooner).

What are the Principal ways to Unlock an iPhone for use with another carrier?

The principal and official method is contacting your carrier, but they will ask you to be the original owner of the device and to have an active plan with them for more than a year, among other requirements. The next option is to jailbreak the iPhone (which we don’t recommend for different reasons that we’ll mention next), and finally, the last and best option is unlocking an iPhone without having to contact the carrier provider through SafeUnlocks’ unlocking service.

Will a Jailbreak unlock my iPhone to use with another SIM card?

As we were mentioning before, even though jailbreaking your iPhone is a common method to deactivate the carrier lock, it doesn’t really work well for that purpose. When you jailbreak your iPhone you get more access to the device (because you get admin permissions), and this would work if the carrier lock was an internal lock.

However, as the SIM lock is a remotely activated restriction on the mobile bands of your device, even if you jailbreak it, your iPhone will still be locked to a carrier. Using this method won’t help you unlock the phone to be able to switch carriers, you’ll just pretty much deactivate Apple’s security layer and expose your phone to viruses and hackers.
