    Default Help! - my iPhone got locked!

    HELP!

    My iPhone got locked after updating.
    I bought it locked and after installing apptap, itunes restored my iPhone.
    After restoring, it is now locked and asking for an AT&T card.

    Please help me unlock my iPhone again.
    Please give instructions or point me in the right direction.

    Thanks.

    You update to what?? 1.0.2? If yes its not lock you just need to flash lockdown files to prevent it from asking to activate or if you're in mac just activate it again using independence

    Assuming it was already unlocked before, simply run Independence and you should be ok.
