Macworld reveals an interesting fact about the CDMA iPhone 4Ss that wasn't immediately obvious. The Sprint CDMA iPhone 4S comes GSM-unlocked, while the Verizon CDMA iPhone 4S can be unlocked by request after 60 days.
Apple ultimately decided to resolve these six-year-old court proceedings and agreed to pay $15 to each impacted iPhone 4s holder.
Android 10 finally started rolling out to Sprint OnePlus 7 Pro 5G devices a few weeks after other variants saw the update.
The Verge: All devices from the iPhone 4S to the iPhone X are impacted.
Fair play to them. On the ethical hacker side of things I would use the hack as leverage against Apple to continue to support their equipment. As they just dropped support for their iPad mini2’s etc. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with them, they work perfectly fine but are now blocked from receiving security updates etc. So the consumer is forced to purchase a new product that does the exact same thing.
I guess thats good for them, but you have to wait 60 days..... its a shame I cant have all the freedom that SIM card users have since I use Verizon.
The info is wrong. Sprint also unlocks the GSM only at request. They've admitted this morning.
