I bought this phone offline through a private pay. In the description of the phone it said that it was able to connect with AT&T and Sprint carriers. But once I received it, it was locked to Sprint and so now I can't use it with my carrier, who is AT&T.
You're gonna have to call the sprint carrier and give them the information on the handset to identify it via IMEI.
They will check to see if the previous owner fulfilled his two-year contract if the phone was purchased with subsidization. If the contract was complete then you can request a carrier unlock from Sprint and they should comply.

Unforunatly when you hook the phone up to Itunes it updates and relocks itself. This is Apple and At&t's way of keeping it locked. You are going to have to get the phone unlocked again.
