someone help me please...

OK..well my friend found a 4g iphone and he gave it to me..i opened it up and it had a tmobile sim card in it so i'm assuming it was already unlocked...i put my tmobile sim card in it and it says "iPhone is disabled - connect to iTunes" .... now when i look in the upper right hand corner it says tmobile where the service bars are, and it lets me make/recieve calls eventhough it says emergency calls only...any idea how i can get rid of the "iPhone is disabled" message?? any help would be appreciated..thanks in advance!!!

turn it in or shoot yourself.

You are a thief. Your friend is a thief.

You know it's not your phone, it has a serial number, and has already been reported to Apple and T-Mobile. That's why it appears to be disabled.

It will do you no good.

Save what is left of you Karma or Soul.

return it.
