Hi People,

I have a iPhone 6 which is locked to Softbank Japan. I am unable to go past the activation screen for the phone as I don't have a Softbank sim.

I have seen on the webpages websites like jailbreakwizz.com offering unlocks for iPhone 4. Can my iPhone be unlocked at all ? Please help.
 
My understanding is that Softbank is the Sprint (2014 and earlier) of Japan when it comes to unlocking.

Softbank has to unlock it and again, my understanding is that they will refuse to do so.

Is there any trusted website I can go to unlock my iPhone 6 which is locked to Softbank Japan carrier ?

I spent 5 years living in Japan and having softbank. You're out of luck. They will not unlock it, ever.

Not if they are like Sprint used to be. Anything anyone offers will be a scam.

Sprint kept the iPhone out of Apple's unlock database for years and Softbank it appears is the same.

I am thinking if I can go past the activation screen them I can use a turbo sim.
