Anyone knows where can i buy unlock code for Dell streak O2?
It's just pathetic from those companies with their little codes can't they just sell phones without locks!
o2 will give you an unlock code for nothing by all accounts.
I tried to ask o2 for a code and they didn't gave it to me, because I am not an O2 customer!!! And the problem is I can;t find the guy i bought the phone!
Ah, well I suppose a rebel sim would be your next best bet then?
I tried O2 but they said there was another 6 months till they would provide me with the code. So i bought the rebel sim and it works like a charm. The only drawback is you have to use 2.1 as it doesnt support 2.2 yet. Apart from that its well worth it.

DJ Steve's 1.5.1 (2.2 Froyo) works like a charm with rebelsim & 1.2 firmware. The only thing you will have to do is to flash the old 2.1 baseband. No need to flash your rebelsim with buggy 1.3beta firmware (been there done that - when you travel and change cells signal is lost forever).

will try to flash my phone to steve's 1.5.1 (for the fist time flashing) and see how it is
*just flashed, confirm 3G and phone function works on DJ Steve's 1.5.1 with my Optus network + rebel sim 1.2
Get yourself a £5 pay & go, o2 sim register it, then get 02 to unlatch it. It'll be a lot cheaper than paying a third party.
Try these guys http://dellstreakunlock.com/ I called early afternoon on bank holiday Monday and dropped the phone off later that afternoon (in Salford) 10 mins later I had an unlocked Streak, this is now currently running 2.2 fully inlocked full data connection etc etc.
Well worth a look

Hi it was O2
Actually, you can get your unlock code from O2 even if you're not an existing customer. I did! As did quite a few people over at Modaco. Just mail them and tell them that you're travelling soon or are currently abroad and don't have an O2 SIM, etc. etc. You may need to send multiple emails, but you will eventually get your unlock code.

Works perfect !
Guys i got my Unlock code when i asked them through the e-mail and i explained my situation and how I'm not from UK and i bought from Ebay and the phone will be useless without the unlock code and they promised me and they did give me the code i just received it and it worked
I'm so happy from O2 now even I'm not from UK
Hey guys, your promt reply is appreciated greatly
Anw, so the solution right now is to email them right? what's their email address?
Because apparently, over at their website (o2.co.uk) you kinda need to enter what kind of account ya have and your handphone number. So basically, what should i enter?
Pls help guys! Thanks!

You need to BUY an unlock code sorry. ... and No,... No free methods that I know of.
There are lots of websites around, I have never used one though.
I use a £3 turbo sim, works brilliantly, lets me use my O2-UK SIM in my Orange network locked handset with no problems.

No problems.
1st thing I would do is get AmonRa's custom recovery installed. Then you will be able to change ROMs when ever you want.
Follow BTDAG's guide in my signature, read the whole thing through including the FAQ at the bottom,... then start playing!!!!

Yeah its locked to Orange. A turbosim is something that you stick to your own simcard, it then tricks the phone into thinking its using the network it was intended for. I got mine from good 'ol ebay.
Search for turbo sim or rebel sim
To Unlock it from Network Lock,you can use the Unlock code.............To get the Unlock code you can reach the site Onlinegsmunlock.com and get the code and Unlock it...Then You can use with any GSM Network Sim card....
My phone was locked to t-mobile, and i needed it unlocked...
Went to a local service, i payed 12 euros for unlocking (not with codes) ...
I not sure how those guys unlocked it, but i know they used a jtag and maybe used a hboot that obviously skips the "locking" security Don't know for sure (they didn't disassembled the phone for soldering pins and stuff the screws are still with the "void" sticker)
You can get an unlock code for a reasonable price at this site:
simunlocks . com
HTC uses database with codes, so there is no miss and hit.
Thanks
I got an X10a last week locked to the at&t network and have been trying with 0 sucess to get it unlocked. I've tried everywhere online, no one can do it. Anyone know why the unlock servers are down? Was it a crackdown from SE? I paid $40 to htccode.com and they haven't refunded my money or been much help. I tried MobileInCanada.com for IMEI remote unlock, they said they couldn't do it and refunded my money. I used my friends att account to call them and ask for the code, and they put the IMEI in their system and got a message that the phone is an at&t exclusive and don't have th unlock code for it. I don't get it. This isn't an iPhone, it's an Android phone that's been out for almost a year. The admin on the setool.net forums where the unlock server is held has been very vague about it ever coming back online. He always just says "maybe 1 week, 1 month, maybe never"
What's the deal?
Did you try these - http://www1.davinciteam.com/index.html
I checked them out. they only do Flah/Debranding. They don't unlock Android devices.
I wonder if I should track down a Turbo Sim and try that...

They answered (Nov 12):

> we can do via code only at moment,. 39 usd
Since your ATT claimed they don't have this code at all, the code can be from manufacturer only that can be more expensive, than $39
I have similar problem, but mine is locked to T-Mobile UK. I am a T-Mobile US customer. TMO UK customer service has standard procedure - they can send unlock code for 15 GPB (around $24), but they provide this service to current TMO UK customers only and send the code by regular mail, so this customer should have street address. So I am stuck too.

I like Ericsson and Sony Ericsson - their flagships usually have almost no errors and work pretty long. In addition, Ericsson is one of the main manufacturers of infrastructure equipment for mobile communications, so they can plan better handset design. And ergonomics - interface and no restriction to use third-party programs. I never had any problems with phone book copy from old handset to new one.
I read this article already and posted link in one of threads of this forum. I was almost sure that all unlocking business works through insiders and this article confirms this. It is pretty possible that this is the end of all unlocking business in form that we knew it. Maybe that pushes forward cracking the lock itself.

Orange UK does something special with their locked handsets... they have to... unlocking a rogers x10 is like 5 USD.
I got mine unlocked via a person on this forum, ferraripassion, i think. i would give their website but i don't think i'm allowed. but their website unlocks handsets from another manufacturer - they have the instructions for the xperia x10 on their forum. They charged 40 USD and they were able to do it in a half hour (connect the phone to your computer, they remote into your computer, run software and done)
Before, I had ordered an unlock code from a different website. They were a little cheaper and promised 24-28 hours. BS. 2 weeks later they had nothing. I constantly sent emails, etc. I got fed up and threatened to do a charge back, in spite of their 21 day policy since they obviously weren't doing anything except changing the status manually. The code eventually came in about 4-5 weeks after my order. A waste of my time though.
I just fear that am gonna be stuck with a t-mobile simcard for weeks without a phone to use it on :/ .. shame it was a awsome £7.50 a month deal with them 600 mins unlimited text & unlimited internet ..

As I know, T-Mobile UK and Orange UK are joined together. Ask T-Mobile UK customer service about that. I think, I saw this sort of questions at the TMO UK customer service forum and that should be free.
By the way the X10 unlocking is actual now again since the unlocking server is down and all those "$40-services" are temporary down too. Look like all of them did their business through Sony Ericsson server and actually didn't have any own know-how. It is possible that actually this server is up long ago, but they cut off the access to this feature or found an employee, who sold access (see levels of EMMA).
Look like I need somebody from T-Mobile UK to order unlock code too (this service is for current customers with street address for receiving paper mail).
I bought a dell streak AT&T (full price) from BestBuy usa. Then i returned to VietNam. But i can't use my streak because it requires unlock code.
I tried to contact with many code provider, but they said that my unlock code is not found (rebelsimcard - unlockallcellular - dellstreakunlock.)
I called for AT&T and they talked me that " streak's unlock code is not found"
Then i called for Dell Support over 6 times. They gave me a service number and number phone to contact with them after 2 weeks. Now I called for them and my phone went out of minute after a hour for waiting (I spent over 60$ just to call for them althought that is number phone toll free because I live in VietNam)
I tried to contact with Dell support thought email. But It can not be to register by Viet Nam user and live chat service is not supported for Dell Streak
I were very disappointed. they said that can not to find unlock code for me. I'm look like a unlucky guy. because they got some problems with my dell streak. they request me to give my streak back for them to check in 30 days. you know, i live in vietnam and i can't fly to usa just to give streak back for them. it's not fair because i paid full price for that thing.
Now i got pda streak without phone. I don't know what I have to do with it. I took much time for it, but i got nothing. It's not fair. It is not my fault!
That's all my situation. Who can help me?
Thanks for reading !
Good luck to all you !
how about mailing your dell streak back to the us?
or you could get a rebelsim or go to dellstreakunlock.com
I would imagine that Dell wouldn't normally have permission to give out unlock codes since they are carrier locked. Usually the carrier provides the unlock code. If AT&T says they can't find your unlock code, but it is locked to them, I think they may be making a mistake.
Keep calling them and ask them for the unlock code. You could also call the BestBuy you purchased it from to ask them for assistance -- my opinion is that BestBuy has a lot of experience with dealing with AT&T, but that all depends on how nice the person you get is.
If you decide to call AT&T yourself, just prose the question: "How come the phone is locked to AT&T and yet AT&T doesn't have the unlock code?"
Sounds like a ridiculous situation to me because they can say they can't give it to you, but really doesn't make sense they don't have it. Try asking for their manager.

You can easily unlock it. The first thing you need to do is to determine whether your phone can be unlocked or not. There is software to do that. It tells you whether your Streak is "unlockable". If yes, unlock it with that same software. You can download it for free. The download site is:
http://www.unlockstreak.com/pages/download-dell-streak-unlock-software
at&t will make a case and you should get the code via email in a few days just call them back thats how i got mine was very simple and good luck!
Hello everyone.
I bought recenlty a used Atrix, in Russia. It was locked, so I tried to find a SIM-unlock. I was thinking that it's a AT&T Atrix, but after asking Motorola Global support, they said me that it was manufactured for Orange France.
I bought the unlock code from two different sources at eBay, they both gave me same codes, but they are not working!
For the moment, I'm trying to contact Orange France for the support, but I'm not sure that they could give that code..
Or maybe it's because my Atrix is running on CM9 that the code isn't accepted?

No its not because of cm9. And sometimes orange doesn't unlock off contract phones. The code is the same as its based on your imei number. If the code doesn't work you should contact the support from where you bought the code.
Sent from my MB860 running Jokersax's CM9
I bought the phone as used, from a particular seller. He bought the code for me, but it didn't worked.
Is there any chance to get the code from Orange support?
Could the code work if I downgrade to 2.3 firmware?

You could try asking orange support. If not try some site where you have to buy the code…i used unlocking.com to unlock moto cliq. They gave me the code the same day and it didn't work the first time. I contacted support and they helped me unlock it. So make sure the site you buy it from has good support.
Carrier unlock is different and won't change no matter what rom your on.

Thanks for the link. Gonna try it
Actually, I spended 5$ more and bought another code. I got the same code, tried to enter it under 5 various SIM-cards - 1 of Beeline, without money on it, 1 of Beeline with unlimited credit, 2 various MTS and even a AT&T sim-card, I had the same problem
Could anyone tell me what radio I should use under CM9?
Or maybe giving a link to official Orange France firmware?
Tried already three radios, with noany it unlocks. Any suggestions on which can it be sucessful?
you can try the bell Canada Radio.
My phone will not SIM unlock using any radio file but when I flashed the Bell Canada Radios it just works. Doesn't even prompt for Sim Unlock.
I just wish I could get my AT&T radio's to flash since I am here in the USA.
