Hi everyone!
I live in Israel, and I bought on eBay CLEAN ESN Sprint iPhone 5.
It came without SIM.
I bought Sprint SIM card, and I got message that says that the iPhone is locked not to Sprint (SIM not valid), I checked with Apple and Sprint, and the phone is Sprint iPhone.
I checked with redsn0w and evasi0n, the iPhone is on 6.0 .
How can I activate it in Israel? Or hacktivate it?
Note: with Israeli local SIM, there's full 5 bars signal and 3G connection. Also, I know Sprint customer that can ask Sprint to activate the iPhone - can it help? And one more thing - the Sprint customer was in Israel with his Sprint iPhone 4 (CDMA only) and he had 5 signal bars and full service - is that mean that there's CDMA in Israel? Because the Israel Carriers offers only GSM. If you have solution that cost money tell me, I'll pay you via PayPal.
Thank you.
