Hi
'Carrier locked' is all about if you sign up to s carrier for a period of time and they give you an incentive - like a cheap or free device They need to keep you 'locked in' to their network (paying their network fees) until you have paid for the. Paint pro software. Apple Watch Series 3 (GPS + Cellular) is not locked to any specific carrier and has a built-in eSIM that copies information from the iPhone's SIM card. The built-in cellular feature requires a carrier plan for your iPhone that specifically includes support for Apple Watch Series 3 (GPS + Cellular), including the carrier activating the device on the plan.
If your Apple Watch (not iwatch) is locked by a passcode and you cannot unlock it via the normal procedure, then follow these steps to erase it and re-pair it:
- Connect the Apple Watch to its charging cable, connected to power.
- Whilst keeping the Apple Watch on the charger:
- Press and hold the side button until you see the Power Off slider.
- Press firmly on Power Off (do not try to slide it - just press down more firmly than a normal tap), release your finger and then tap on Erase all content and settings and confirm when prompted.
- Pair the watch using the Watch app on your iPhone, choosing to Restore from Backup if offered the option.
