Iphone 12 Pro Max - Locked after factory reset
Hey folks,
So I've factory reset my IPhone 12 Pro max wich I bought from an ebay seller back then I Germany. Everything was fine, untill I favor reset the phone. All of a sudden the device was locked to "Vodafone UK". Mind you I've been using that phone with a German carrier for 5 Years now.
I've went to Vodafone UK Support and used their Unlock Formular. But they just returned that they confirmed that the device was not locked to Vodafone. And also that they can only unlock phones directly bought from them. I'd have to contact the seller. But that doesn't exist anymore...
What are my options to not end up with a perfectly working Iphone 12 as a brick
