We have now overcome the CID and SIMLock problems thanks to some invaluable reverse engineering efforts from xda-developers/itsme.
A free tool is coming soon

A bull**** Administrator from spv-developers, huh?
Tried to unlock cingular 3125 on ebay where I just send my imei to cellunlockimei.com but they can't find the code for my imei.Other sellers can't unlock it because they use the same tool.I can't use imei-check.com so I try to find another service.Is anybody use another service?
Any help please?
I got my 3125 sim-unlocked simply by asking my buddy who has Cingular/AT&T to call them for the code. It was fast and free.
I bought one locked 3125 on ebay and now can't find unlocking solution.I've tried to unlock it 2 times by unlock code what I bought on ebay but both sellers could not find unlock code for my IMEI .This phone is new and I think they do not have code for my phone yet. Then I bought unlock via cable at cellcorner.com and today I've got refund and email "Remote unlock by cable is not currently available". I'm not US citizen and I can't call to cingular.I can't use imei-check.com because I had negative experience with this company. Is anybody tried another online services for unlocking 3125?Thank you.

Hiya,
I've has organised myself a new XDA 2, does anyone know if these can be unlocked to any network like the original XDA?
Regards,
Chris
Now that the XDA II is to sale, I hope it will be possible very soon to unlock it :wink: , a friend will bought one for me in UK , and I need to have it simfree ...to use it, unless that, it will be a PPC Phone Edition, with no phone ! :roll:
Unlocking

So did I , for 15£ , Im FREE, now !...
Unlocking from O2
Hi,
What number at O2 did you call to unlock the phone and what excuse did you you use?
Thanks,
K
no excuse...just asked for the unlocking code..and they charged me £15
Hi, do you have the number? I checked in 3 shops and they claimed no unlocking options for 12 months... :?
Unlocking
Called O2 and they said they would unlock it... however they didnt give me an unlocking code... they said they will take care of things for me.
Can they do it from their side? I thought I was suppose to enter some code to unlock the device or at least thats what I have done in the past with an Ericsson phone I had...
Can someone help? dont want them charging me for nothing...
K
Number is
08702 410 202
Option 0
they need to give u a code which you need to enter once u put a non o2 sim card in the xda2
Or run SimLock.exe (hidden file in Windows directory)
Out of interest, what was your unlock code?
No luck... O2 wont unlock because its a new contract... Didnt like their attitude might take the phone back tomorrow...
Mine is a new contract & "Darren" in Warrington definately said to me that they would unlock on payment of £15 and my whole year's contract in advance. He checked with his manager & that was confirmed.
Ring 'em back. They are being totally inconsistent.
my xda is on a three month old contract and they gave me the unlock code without any fuss
Every 1 in O2 sing a different song!
When I bought my XDA 1 I paid O2 £15 to unlatch it so I could use it on any network. So when I upgraded (over the phone with O2) to the XDA2 I told them I wanted that unlatched too.
No problem, they said, just call customer services when it arrives.
After being given many different stories by O2 they finally gave me the unlatching code.
The problem is that when I entered it the phone rejected it every time although O2 checked the IMEI number several times.
Finally they tell me that they have an arrangement with HTC (The manufacturers) not to allow the unlatching of the XDA2 to any network other than O2!!!
It would have been nice if O2 staff had been advised of that and not told me there would be no problem and then given me a code that doesn't work!!
I have sold my XDA 1 and bought accessories for the XDA 2 so I am now out of pocket and fully intend writing to O2 claiming I have been mis-sold. That is, unless anyone out there knows how to unlock the phone so the unlatching code works ??
I shall persevere with hassling O2 until I get it unlocked though I cannot see how any of you out there have managed this when O2 staff have so adamantly informed me that they simply cannot and will not be unlocking the XDA2 for any but O2 network until next year!! :x :x
it may be that the staff who i spoke to were not aware of this policy and just treated like any other handset...i am not even using my o2 sim card but using it on t-mobile and vodaphone.
i have read all the responses on this page and the sim lock exe has been metioned but what does this programe do i would love to know
Please, xda-developers , can you find a way to desimlock XDA II ???
I was suppose to receive my unlock code , paying 15£ to O2 , and 650 £ full price with no contract ; IMEI and bill have been sent by O2 store to the Central stuff, but now, they said , no more unlock !!!
So that means, as I leave in France, that I can use my XDA II only like normal PPC and not PPC Phone , and that I will have to buy a phone !!! :evil:
Simlock.exe is the program that runs when you have a SIM inserted that is not belonging to O2 - asks you for the unlock code.
Alternatively can be run as standalone exe for the same purpose.
rustek/tenzin
They cannot legally NOT allow you to unlock the phone if you request it. It is against OFTEL regulations in this country. If they persist, just mention that to them, further non-cooperation, ring OFTEL and get them to intervene - the "watchdog" is there for our benefit.
Hi, I've just bought an XDA 2 off contract, SIM FREE. However even though it's not locked to a network when you put a non-O2 sim card in it asks for an unlock code.
Does anybody know the unlock code to make it SIM FREE, or is it specific to each device???
Which means it is locked to a network, namely O2, the only way to get the unlock at the moment is from O2.

I met the same problem. I sent email to O2 Data support and explain situation. They asked me copy of the receipt, model number and IMEI of the unit. And at least i've got code. So, you must proof that you bought unit off contract.
can you tell me the email address you sent it to?
thanks

The same as in User Guide [email protected]
O2 have unlocked my xda2,
I provided them with imei only and they were very helpful, if only they could start to make their xda's unlocked in future so that we dont all have this trouble.
o2 are impossible!!
i think i need a miracle to get a unlatching code any time soon!
any miracle workers out there contact me plzzz!!
thanking u in advance
Well, I'm also waiting for a miracle, after several hours on the phone with no results....and from France , it's a lot of money....for nothing !!!
i bought the XDA2 @ expansys (ok it s more expensive) but i get the unlock code included in the package on a paper sheet as well and it worked perfectly on French and belgian networks
Hi ! Cyberbob, after an ultimate call to O2 , i'll probably do like you and sell my xda2 locked as a simple pda ....
But don't believe it's more expensive on Expansys (LOL !) , I have paid 1030 euros to the guy who bought the xda2 for me in Uk , plus around 8 hours of phone calls to UK from france....so I think , Expansys price is not so bad , and your xda2 is sim free ! :wink:
the price for exclusivity of having the first XDA2 in France
i guess it will be to bad to sell it as a simple PDA i hope you ll find a better solution

Anyone know how I can unlock my SIM on my G4 8125?
hi friend you need lockwiz v3.0 i dont remember as well witch version is but also is for charmer and prophet
enjoy it
Where can I find this? And is it possible to brick a device trying to SIM unlock?
its a joke you will find here in the xda forum or the wiki also this program only reads the sim code unlock no faluire or brick device if you intent a cid unlock with a g3 unlocker you had a 10-35% of brick your phone
My CID is already unlocked on My G4 8125.... Had to pay 30 something bucks to do it though.. now I just wanna unlock the SIM... I found Lokiwiz here on the forums.. and I'm gunna attempt it as soon as someone comes over my house with a non-cingular phone with a sim card.. lol
30!?!?!?! ghehe ohw srry that's pretty ****** up when you can do it easy lie yourself
If Cingular is your carrier and you have been their customer for a while you can call them up and request a SIM unlock code. They are obligated to give you one.
you had all reason if you re a cingular custumer yo can speak with they to get the sim code in fact the cid unlock in a g4 cost 30 bucks - 20 euros for a g3 is free
I called Cingular.. and they gave me a SIM unlock code, but they said there was some other code I forget what they called it that they could only give me if I met certain criteria, like contract is up, purchased phone at full retail or are travelling out of the country for an extended period of time...
Where do I input the code they gave me? Just incase what they were referring to was something totally different then unlocking the SIM
You'll have to find a non-cingular SIM card and put it in your phone. When you turn it back on, it'll ask for the unlock code.
Im gunna have to get one of my buddies over here so I can try it.. lol
As mentioned earlier, find someone with a T-Mobile SIM card. Thats the easiest way to test. They (Att/Cingular) should have provided you with unlocking instructions.
btw after all how u do the sim unlock ???
or is that pretty much the only way (sim unlock that is )
i can't garantee anything, but give cingular a call.
tell them you have a blue (AT&T) SIM card and the phone is rejecting it.
the 3125s were programmed to be locked from AT&T, but when they merged back into AT&T, the phones needed to be unlocked for new subscribers (AT&T) using existing (Cingular) phones.
they might try to call your bluff, but maybe not... it's free, and worth a shot.
I am a Cingular customer (ATT) and I recently called them and told them I was traveling abroad and they gave me the code...no problem.
$20??? Where at?
Where can I get my Cingular 3125 unlocked for $20? If not $20 then what is the cheapest place?

Agreed, but most posters asking for "unlock" want SIM unlock, and there's no free one of those right now.

It wouldn't do you any good - the unlock codes are IMEI (handset) specific.
I recently got my hands on a 3125 (im a previous Smartflip owner) on ebay, but came locked and with a busted outer lcd display, then tried to log on the webpage and then asked me for a phone line number. Since is purshased from ebay, i dont have one. How can i request warranty or unlocking service from them without a phone line?

I do not think Cingular will give you the unlock code w/o having service with them. You'd need a buddy w/Cingular or to do an outside SIM unlock....

They wouldn't give me the code until mine was activated for 3 months with their service - i think that's their standard policy!
