I have a Cricket iPhone 5S (Jailbroken). I'm currently living in India. I need it's 7 digit exact IMSI to get it unlocked via sim interposers. Please if anyone can help me out.

Also, can anybody suggest me some other way to use this iPhone here in India (I mean flashing it to some other operator or any guidance)?

Any answer would be much appreciated!

Looking forward to your replies admins and all members.

Thank you for the reply. I have tried contacting Dena Hunter (Cricket's Code Analyst). She is not telling me MIN. She completely refused.

However, I know MCC & MNC of the Cricket's career. But don't know about MIN. As you guys have flashed many iPhones to Cricket, so I thought you must have contacted Cricket before and have knowledge about its MIN.

P.S.: MCC=310 & MNC=016 (According to imsiadmin.com). So, should I need one digit MIN only? Also, please reply if any other member knows about its 7 digit IMSI.

if you are here in the states using ckt wireless your imsi will be 31000xxxxxxxxxx the x=your min,do not use 016 for mnc.to get that you just need to call ckt cutsy serv (1-800-cricket) and ask them for it,they will likely make you verify your account first.keep in mind when ever you change accounts or your phone number your min will change.

Thank you man for the info!

I have mentioned in my first post that I live in India. I'm not in USA currently. Also, my iPhone is not linked to any account yet. Or I should say I don't know whether it has been linked or not cause i have purchased this piece of metal through eBay. How will I get its MIN then?

I have tried contacting Cricket Customer Service also, but they simply refused to tell it.

I think I'm completely duped here at this point. :(

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Hello man!

As you have directed me that IMSI of Cricket starts with 31000xxxxxx. I need only first 6 digits. You told me the 5 digits. I have tried the remaining one 0 to 9 but none worked. The thing is I want to use GSM part of the phone. Bypassing an activation screen needs correct IMSI. If I'm not wrong first 7 digits of all account's IMSI should have been the same. Also, I don't know about the previous Cricket Account Holder of this phone. Cricket customer care won't give me MIN. When I tried to read IMSI of Cricket SIM Card from iTools, it tells me it's 310CKT. Now, what does this CKT means here.

Please help me!!

This piece of metal is creating burden on me now.

you can get the msid from the phones menu go to settings/genral/about then tap carrier until you see it.but i told you before for cricket just add 31000 to the front of the msid that is your imsi,and ckt is the abbreviation for cricket bundle 310 is country code and 00 is mnc for cricket

The MSID in the About screen is 0000007734. So, according to you, my IMSI will be 310000000007734? and my MIN1 will be 0007734 and my MIN2 will be 000? If it so, then it's too not working. The iPhone got stuck on activation screen, saying "SIM Not Valid". Also, one little question, is these cricket locked iPhone 5S are GID2 locked?

if min is 0000007734 then it has been restored since it was activated so it got reset.if you have 5s iphone and are trying to flash it you might as well forget it,that 64 bit sys is impregnable to say the least you wont be able to write the baseband.

you cannot unlock that phone by merely having the min number from your account.if you want it unlocked have someone with an at&t account in good standing call at&t customer service and ask them to unlock for you
