[EDIT.SOLUTION Got it. Reset Network Settings didn't do it, but Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings did.]
Hi.
I have an old iPhone 6 Plus running iOS 12.5.5 that I bought unlocked and now want to sell. At one point, I tried to activate the phone with a Boost Mobile SIM card. I abandoned the idea without activating the phone, but now Settings>General>About>Carrier shows Boost Mobile 36.1. I tried doing a Reset>Reset Network Settings but nothing changed. There is no SIM card installed. Did BM's SIM card somehow lock my phone to BM? I know, it may be a dumb question, but I'm at a loss here on how to clear that value prior to selling the phone. I don't want to do a factory reset unless I have to b/c I'm still using the phone and not selling it immediately. Any help appreciated.
