Can IPhone 4 Be Unlocked Legally...What Do You Think?

in technology •  8 years ago 

Cell phones are everywhere; it is hard to ignore the  inevitable. It seems like every single year there is a brand new phone  being released that people run to the stores to obtain. The iPhone 4 is  just one of these phones. One question that a lot of people who have  these phones tend to ask are can iPhone 4 be unlocked.

You can unlock this phone and gain access to different services that are  normally not provided by your phones network carrier. When unlocking  the phone, the network blocks that are placed on the device will be  removed from your phone altogether; you do not need to be tech savvy,  nor do you need to be a technician in order to remove the blocks that  are put onto these phones.
 

There are a lot of different software programs that exist that can help  you unlock a bunch of different cool things that you would have never  known that your phone possessed. Unlocking the phone is actually fairly  easy to do. However, you will need to jailbreak the phone first.
 

Jail breaking a phone, means that you are going to remove the limits  that were opposed upon the phone by the manufacturer of the device; By  removing these limits, you will be able to use your phone for many  different things, that you may not even be aware that it can do. There  are a lot of unofficial applications that you can obtain when the phones  are unlocked, as well as some amazing games, applications that you can  use during your daily life and so much more.
 

Most people believe that by unlocking their cellular phones that they  are breaking the law. This is not exactly true. By choosing to unlock  your phone, you will remove the network blocks that are placed upon it.  Removal of these blocks does not take a long time to do, and it is  extremely affordable to remove them as well.
 

According to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act that was passed in the  United States, everyone can choose to remove network blocks on their  phones, without being persecuted for doing so. The Apply Corporation has  agreed to allow people to unlock their new iPhone 4 cell phones, but  they do not condone doing so.
 

If you decide to unlock the network blocks that were put onto your  cellular phone, you will void out your phones warranty. However, even  though your warranty will be voided, unlocking your phone is safe. But,  the Apple Corporation does not encourage everyone to remove the blocks  on their phones. One of the main reasons why the Apple Corporation does  not encourage removal of their network blocks is because the unofficial  apps that you can get from unlocking your phone cut into the companies  profits.
 

Obviously, whenever a companies profits are put onto the chopping block,  the company will do everything in this power to not encourage any  activities that are going to make them lose money. The answer to the  question, can iPhone 4 be unlocked is yes. Even though unlocking the  phone is legal and will open up your phones functions, it is not  encouraged by the Apple Corporation.
