u also stuck as mine :( somebody plz help !
 
So your still using the same sim you always have? Is it a uk o2 sim..?
 
I tried to use different kind of sim card o2 and those carrier sim cards which available in our country but still it's same any idea what should i do ?
 
Can you make clear your problem. You bought an iPhone in the uk which you were told was factory unlocked? It had an o2 sim in it at the time and thats the only one that ever worked...?
 
When i brought it i used GP carrier on it after i left my country then i used o2 sim it so it's clear that i used any kind of sim card on this iphone but it doesn't matter cuz it's locked now :(
 
Sounds like is wasn't factory unlocked so when you restored it you lost your unlock...
 
:( So that guy lied to me while he sold the i4 to me btw there's nothing can be done now cuz i donno the guy is there anything can be done to unlock my fone ?What are the possible ways to unlock it ?
 
Its possible the guy who sold it to you (or the original owner), has reported it stolen to claim on the insurance.

Ive fallen victim of this with other honed over craigslist multiple times. There was never anything I could do about it. The only tip I can give you is to meet the guy at the Verizon store whatever phone you buy next and activate it before you pay.
You can also call into Verizon if you want before you pay and they'll tell you if the phone you have is activateable or not. I know...I made up my own word just now...
 
If you restored in iTunes without preserving your baseband then there's no unlock just now...
