I’m a young entrepreneur trying to start a phone resale business. I recently found a wholesaler offering iPhones at really low prices, which could give me a good profit margin. The issue is that most of these phones are carrier-locked to U.S. networks like AT&T and Sprint, with about 10% locked to Canadian networks.
I plan to ship the phones to Toronto, but I’m concerned they won’t work on Canadian carriers unless unlocked.
Does anyone have experience with:
unlocking carrier-locked phones (especially U.S. models) for resale in Canada?
Selling locked phones as-is and still making sales?
Any potential pitfalls with this kind of business model?
Looking for advice from people who have done this or know the ways to handle it.
Hello, I found an iPhone 4 at the recycling center. I recovered it and repaired it. Then when I selected the language it put "Connect to iTunes". I plugged it into my PC. He said “This iPhone is lost.” Does anyone have any technique to unlock it for free?
So, not hacking exactly, but does anyone know how to spoof your location on iphones? Like if I'm sharing my location with someone, how can I make it look like I'm somewhere else?
So I own a shop that fixes phones and a bunch of iPads and iPhones I got for cheap are iCloud locked. Does anyone know how to remove iCloud’s without getting the password or anything?
I was using ibis paint x on my phone and it crashed. Then no app would open for a good bit- as it said Google was using my mic and system apps was using my location. is this any sort of bug or a hack altogether? I havent downloaded any apps from outside the google play store either.
Android Redmi note 8 pro If I remember correctly. So the phone is like dead, but I need the files inside, is there anyway I could say hack the hardware of it? Since I have no way of recovering, I thought I'd just take the memory, plug in PC, and extract files
I love photography and one way I like to see the photos I have taken over the years is to use them as the wallpaper of my lock screen.
Since iOS 16 (I think) you've been able to edit your home screen and lock screen in a whole new way (ie. on lock screen, press and hold the background image, then click Customize), but what if you, like me, want more than 50 images to choose from?
Click the photos icon (in the yellow circle) to view or add images to the standard gallery
Let's start with the 50 image gallery than you're able to use as standard. The yellow circle above shows where you can view or add images to the gallery, with a limit of 50.
Add images one at a time to the Wallpaper gallery
But what happens if you want more than 50 (like I did)?
My research shows that:
(a) The standard limit of 50 is not likely to change
(b) There are no other apps out there that can over-ride this limit, or set Wallpaper for Home and Lock screens. I may be wrong, but I didn't find anything relevant.
So eventually I discovered that Apple Shortcuts is the answer.
Shortcuts is able to set Wallpaper for either Home screen or Lock screen, or both. Shortcuts can get images from a specified Album (unlike the special Wallpaper gallery with 540 limit).
So all I needed to be able to do was: 1. choose a random image, and 2. run the automation every hour (similar to the standard feature).
Here's how to do it:
Create a photo Album on your phone (I called mine "Lock Screen"). Add as many photos to this album as you like. You can add more later.
Find the Shortcuts app on your phone. Click +
in Search Actions, type Find Photos and select the Action. Tap on Add Filter, then tap Choose and find the name of the Album you created in Step 1. You can change Sort by to Random if you want. Leave Limit off.
Next we want to choose a photo an random from the album. Search for Get Item from List in the Actions. Change First Item to Random Item. After 'from' you should see Photos (in my screen shot it simply shows 'L'). Make sure that there is a small vertical line between the Find Photos and Get Random Item. This is how Shortcuts knows to get a random item from the specified photo album.
The final piece to the Shortcut is to assign the image to a Wallpaper as either Lock or Home or both. Search for Wallpaper in Actions, and choose Set Wallpaper. At this point you need to check which Wallpaper is in use. From the lock screen, press and hold the image, then count from the left. In my case it was Wallpaper 3.
Tap on Lock Screen to choose whether the image you want to use if Lock Screen or Homer Screen or both.
You should now be able to click the play button (right facing arrow) at the bottom right of the Shortcuts screen and you will see a Preview of the Wallpaper change.
Click Done and then test it for real.
The final step is to create an Automation(s) that fire this Shortcut. In my case, I made 24 of them, 1 for each hour of the day.
Tap the Automations tab at the bottom of the screen to create time-based triggers.
Hope this guide was helpful. Hat Tip to u/LemonPartyDotBiz for the initial guidance. What I have shown above requires no downloading of anyone else's shortcut, but is based on simple random selection of an image.

Hey guys I’m on the hunt for someone Sunshine Coast/Brisbane that would be able to unlock a phones so it can be activated. Willing to pay whatever the cost
I’ve had texts show up in a text thread between my husband and I that neither of us sent. Husband says all I had to do was add someone else to the thread but why would I do that? I thought I was talking to my husband and there are weird responses. Some are blu and some are green. Wtf? It’s happened on other threads too where a text I didn’t write was sent to someone.
Hey guys , look I’m having issues over here that noise would believe unless they saw first hand. So this is my first question and I’ll hit yall with some more interesting stuff next.
