is my iphone 4s unlocked?
i originally had a 4s locked to rogers that was recently replaced by apple. with the new phone, if i put in a Bell or Telus sim card the Carrier field under Settings will recognize the carrier the sim card belongs. however the screen will then turn black, go back to the start up screen and a pop up will appear saying "activation required". it will then go through the initial set up screen giving me a list of possible wifi connections to connect to. if i put the Rogers sim card back in i still get the same "activation required" pop up but it will allow me to skip the setup and my phone will return to normal.
i've had previous iphones replaced by apple in the past and know they will lock the phone to the carrier you were originally on. i've tried in the past with other sim cards on the older phone and have gotten a message saying something along the lines of carrier unidentified.
the model number of the phone is MD234LL
