My old 3gs had a problem so I brought it into apple and they gave me a refurbished one. The problem I have now is this phone is locked to telus and I'm with Fido. Is there anything I can do to unlock my phone? Blackra1n and redsn0w won't work since its a new model and I cant downgrade.
Thanks in advance

Why did they give you a Telus phone?:confused: Did you tell them you are with fido?
It seems odd, that they would just reach over and hand you a phone locked to carrier you are not with, or to not even bother asking who your phone carrier is. :(

Fido carries iPhones, so you should've just asked them for a Fido locked iPhone.
