Hi all,
Anybody who has experience with the turbo sim to unlock the x10?
Since I have no credit card and local services ask at least 40 euro for unlock ,the turbo sim (locally advertised for 10 euro) seems like an option,but will it work?
Thanks in advance,
Tom
i have heard only lil about the turbo sim , but from what i know u can go to some store and find out than seeing online .. coz u cant say whether the turbo sim they offer is proper or not ..until u see it working !!
hope m not wrong
and
helps u a bit ...
thnk if it helps!!!
Well,I decided to take the plunge and ordered the turbosim...Think it's worth a shot,10 bucks ain't that much,and if it isn't working on my x10 I'll sell it again,only after testing in some documented compatible phone of course..
Will post again to share my experience.
You will face hardware issues later with these sims.
The very first problem that you will face is battery life will come down drastically.
Sorry i haven't used the Turbo Sim unlocking to unlock MY Mobile from Network Lock,If you expect the Low cost and get the Unlock service means ,you cannot Unlock it easily and safely,So better get the Unlock code that is best.So you can unlock it secure.You can buy the unlock code from the site Onlinegsmunlock.com and Unlock it from Network Lock.

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

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

Hi,
I need big help in understanding from everyone:
I am planning to get the Atrix from US:
1)Question is will this phone work in India as i know this phone is carrier locked, do we get the carrier free phone also and will that work or should i do some tweaking again. and can anyone update me with the price for carrier free version please.. beg of it.
Thanks for the help....
you can get unlock code from cellunlock.net to unlock it and use in india
Yes I can confirm that this works . I am also in bangalore with Atrix working on Airtel . Got my code from cellunlock.net .
me from mumbai, got 2 atnt atrix from xda itself and they both work well.
it is a quadband gsm phone with support for hsdpa 2100 so there is no reason why it shouldn't work in india
Thanks
I will surely buy this phone last question i would like to know what price did you pay for the phone and how much did you pay for unlocking.. and the site for unlocking
As i know it is 500$ for phone +Laptop dock.. please update me if wrong...

Hi,
Thanks for your help.. my cousin checked @ ATT stores
1) The phone costs $500 without contract but even the dealer does not know if this phone will work on any other network..
2) Should i unlock the phone after buying for 500$ or should i go with the 450$ with contract and along with the laptop dock....
can you help me out with this do you know if the phone will work for any other network..
3) what would be the cost of laptop dock if i would buy this separately..
Thanks

hi xda developers!
my uncle sent me an xperia x10 which is originally orange locked so i want to unlock it to use here in philippines. i tried to bring it to the technicians and they're charging me lot of cost and i don't even have a visa card or credit card to buy unlock codes or software online...so can you guys please help me to sort this problem out? please
You can't unlock the phone. There is a software mod to unlock but not sure if you can find it. You will have to buy the code/unlock . I don't see anything else
Damn there was a site for this that was free! Only I forgot it... I will try to search for it for you!
thanks so much! will greatly appreciate your help to sort this out...thanks!
i just noticed, where did my other comment go? is there something wrong with my post?
Do you mean sim locked?
yes it is....
hey guys can you please check this out?

waiting for the end of the contract
maybe u`re thinking about http://www.omnius-server.com/, but they can`t unlock x10, only 90% of se models can be unlocked for free by that site

is there any other way i can unlock my x10 for free?
Yeah, I think Omnius *used* to have an option to unlock the X10 for free during a promotional period about a year ago for a couple weeks. I'm not sure if they could have done any of the Orange branded X10s.
Unfortunately, Orange is one of the most difficult (and costly) phones to unlock. The absolutely cheapest way for you to unlock it is to call Orange and see if they'll be kind enough to unlock it (I think Orange UK charges 20-25 Pounds or so, unsure of Orange France).
Only other option is to go with one of the remote unlockers. There are a couple companies that can send you a code with your IMEI but expect to wait around 25 days to save a few (and i do mean, few) dollars.

even at the end of the contract, the phone will not unlock itself.

no but service provider (orange) will unlock it for free after 6 months of contract.
hey
i just started browsing around for you and whenever i got a carrier locked phone i always used IMEI unlock codes
try this http://www.cellunlocker.net/blog/2010/06/how-to-unlock-sony-ericsson-xperia-x10/
thanks for all your response, actually orange uk is charging 20 pounds to unlock it but unfortunately my uncle wasn't able to organize it as it was already sent to me via dhl. i don't know if they will still allow it to be unlocked as it's already here in philippines. I've been trying to browse around the unlockers to get a code or software to unlock it but as what i've seen there are lots of issues like:
on htccode what i saw just now is their system is seem down as per some client's recent posts who are wanting to get their money back.
and some other unlockers offer the code but will have to wait for 5-10 days. i know this is absurd but i have an itchy hand now so i really want to unlock it really quick and use it right away.
anyway thanks to all of you... if i get to unlock this soon i will post it here.
Hi! I'm also looking for the cheapest code, but for now, the winner is mrunlock for 20 pounds... I don't know if I can trust it... Have you find something cheaper???
i want to buy an sony ericson xperia s at almost half price from ebay but is sim locked, how can i sim unlock it, i know some android rom changing but i never had a sim locked phone and i dont want to spend 30 euro for a code. Anyone can help me?
You can't SIM unlock for free, at least not yet.
Can anyone post up a reliable unlocking site that can do an unlock? I don't mind rolling out for it its just there's so many and you hear so many stories of ones ripping you off
I'm on o2 UK and the phone I've got is t mobile UK.
Hi guys,
I have an Xperia X10 which was purchased with an Orange contract but would like to give it to my younger brother since I've now got a new phone. The problem is my X10 is locked onto Orange and my brother is on Tesco. Is there a way to unlock the phone? I assume I can take the phone to Orange and they will unlock it for me but I'm sure they will charge for this. Is there a way to unlock it for free?
Any help would be very much appreciated

They made it illegal in the us without asking your carrier
So try to call your carrier and ask for sim unlock code
Sent from my X10 using xda app-developers app

You can make a unlock code request to orange by calling their customer care executive.But i don't know how much they are charge to unlock your Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 phone.But they will ask you to wait for some days or even some months to provide unlock code.Also they won't
give the code at free of cost.So better you can get the code from online provider like Theunlockarena.com .

This type of post is frustrating. If you want to promote a site, just be upfront about it.
Our name on here is mobileunlocked and if we ever link to ourselves, it's to be useful for people who are actually still looking for help. Not threads were the person clearly doesn't need advice any more.
Stop trying to destroy a good thing on XDA.
