Hi
This is wierd, I received an iPhone 5 from a friend this phone is locked to AT&T in USA, He gave me all his details and asked to unlock the same from INDIA.
However he after removing the sim did a factory reset.
Now I am stuck at the activation screen
I cant unlock as the phone must be activated & cant activate as I dont have the AT&T SIM
Please help what should be done
Regards

You don't need to have the device activated in order to unlock it. You will need the IMEI number which can be obtained from the first page of the activation screen. If you turn the device off, then back on, on the first screen (the one with the "Hola!, Hello! etc) there is a little circle with an "i" inside, down in the bottom right corner. If you tap that icon, it will give you the IMEI number.
Once you have that number, submit it to one of the online iPhone unlock services. Once you have been notified that the iPhone is unlocked, insert any sim card into the device. You will then be able to complete the rest of the activation process and you will have a fully unlocked iPhone.
Hope that helps,

Hope This is the right way to ask again.
I need to know the authenticity of R-SIM does the system work & if there is a tutorial on how it works.
Secondly is the site myimeiunlock.com/ an authentic site to unlock the phones.
Or you may recomend somme other.
