You need to but an unlock code. Put a different network sim in the phone, it will ask for the code, put it in, done!

cn you get the code for free?
who can i get it from?
Thanks in advance
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
Anyone have any ideas on how to unlock this phone?
Dont worry mate..
The moment some one unlocks the first windows phone they would sing it from the top of the houses...
There is no way you would miss that
The Mozart I received from Telstra did not come carrier locked. It's my understanding that no WP7 handsets can be locked by the carrier, though this might just be a Telstra thing.

All the UK WP7 handsets are carrier locked, except the HD7 (as the carrier which has it provides SIM free handsets).
I successfully SIM unlocked my Orange HTC Mozart with one of the 3rd party online services within 20 minutes. Search the web.

Maybe its all those anti-competative names Telstra have been hit with over the last few years that has turned them around. Or maybe they just haven't figured it out yet.
Hopefully should be getting one of these phones today, just wanted to know if I had room to move. Cheers guys. I'll let you know how it goes.
Correct, Telstra aren't SIM Locking any phones anymore.
Hey guys thanks for the responses.
We got the first of the phones already and can confirm that they are indeed unlocked.
is there any difference between unlocking the phone from Orange UK and from web based unlocking people?
any idea about cost involved in either case?

cant seem to find the post
searched on google and its there but link does not work
http://www.google.co.uk/search?sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8&q=unlock+your+htc+mozart
he did unlock mine
the guy's name is secany on this forum
so u can send him a private message
Actually, don't have to PM me to check. You can check your phone can be unlock or not here:
http://www.nckzone.com/htc/index.php
Just type in your 15 digits IMEI and check, if it says Supernew records, then you can phone be unlock by "some" (NOT ALL) online service, I recommend here
http://www.nckzone.com , price is cheaper than other and most important is code comes in <5 mins.
If it says "No HTC tool is available for your IMEI" then you have to wait for about a week or two then try again.
Thanks Secany appearing on the horizon
I checked on the website mentioned secany and message appeared ""No HTC tool is available for your IMEI". But I found on this forum that Mozart can be unlocked. any body got mozart unlocked?
Like I say, some Mozart will give result supernew records, those units can be unlock right now.
Hi all, I am really new to this forum.
First of all I would like to apologize if this is a double post.
Can some one please help me unlock the X10 from at&t.
I would always unlock att phones by calling their costumer service but they were not able to generate or give me the key to my X10 for some reason. I wonder if there is another way to unlock the phone so i can use sim frm other carriers.
I'm interested as well =)
Is there a free way to unlock phone from AT&T ?
Firstly, the search function at the top works wonders guys, this is one of the most widely posted issues.
There are two solutions I see frequently:
website htccode.com
user lancez on this forum
as i mentioned earlier im a noob in this forum. I could not find anything with the search function either. Could you please elaborate on the user lancer you mentioned.

Don't take No for an answer from AT&T. By law, at least in the USA, AT&T has to give you the unlock code 90 days into your contract. Just gotta ask for it.... so they say anyway. Try taking it in to the store. The other ways, like Lance, cost $30+. AT&T should be FREE!

With a custom ROM you have UNBRANDED the phone but not unlocked it. Unlocking it means that you can put any SIM card into it so that if you travel to the EU or other GSM areas you can get a local SIM card much cheaper than an international plan for ATT.
It also doesn't mean that suddenly you have new wireless frequencies either, so if you put in a T-Mobile sim card you won't get their 3G/H or any EU 3G/H.
Some people have reported that your phone will show ROAM when on ATT after unlocking but this shouldn't be a problem as you are a ATT contract holder.
Don't worry i will help you to Unlock Your Sony Ericsson Phones from Network Lock,You can use the Unlock Code to unlock it from Network lock,But you can get the code from Online site...You can get the Unlock code from the site www.simpleunlocking.com and Unlock it......They get the code from Network Data base and provide to you.
for codes you can contact your service provider or can get it from online providers
I've done some googling around and cant seem to find an answer that makes sense, I just would like to know if im able to unlock a Sony Xperia P on the O2 network so that i can use it with other phone networks?
Bump, surely someone must have done this, or know the answer? please just say yes or no?

I have done this, you need to ring o2 and ask for the the unlock code, they should give you it for free.
Then when you put a different network sim in your phone, it'll ask you for the code to unlock the phone.
Remember the thanks button.
Cheers,

Hi Borchouk,
did you get the unlock code from mrunlock? Did the code work as supposed - have you unlocked your XP?
10x you in advance for the reply.

Hi
They could NOT unlock my XPERIA P. Here I post the answer from mrunlock
"Unlock Code Unavailable
Your order will be refunded in full under our satisfaction guarantee.
This could be because the phone manufacturer has not yet added it to their database, it is an unsupported model, or you accidentally entered the IMEI for a different phone.
If you would still like to unlock your handset then please try your local independent phone shop / market trader as they may be able to do this with hardware.
It is also worth testing your phone with different SIM cards to double check it is still locked as sometimes you may find it works when you do not expect it to."
Also they have not refund me yet
i have since got my phone unlocked, it wasnt easy to find somewhere to do it, this is a hard device to unlock it seems, your best bet is getting in touch with the company your phones locked to, I got mine unlocked by o2 themselves free of charge, but thats because my ebay seller was very helpful and filled out a short form for me after i requested.

What kind of information does O2 need to unlock the phone?
I got in touch with my ebay seller (the original owner) and she filled out a form for me, im not too sure what details she had to put forward but i dont think its anything you could obtain unless you were the original owner, i was told however of another way around this but its not free. You have to get an o2 payg sim, top it up with like 20 pounds, make a few phone calls from the phone so it registers with your imei number, then with at least 15 pounds left submit an unlock form for payg sim to o2

Does anyone knows a trustworthy third party that can SIM unlock an AT&T Padfone X?
I want to buy one, i know they won't unlock it because i'm not a customer, and i don't know anyone who have an AT&T contract, so, the only option is to use a third party unlock service, but i've only found master unlocks, but the website has very bad reviews on several sites, some tells that it takes more than 45 days, and sometimes it never answers...
Thanks
Hi Just wondering if you found any unlock method, I have had the phone for 3 weeks, new to ATT and flying in a week. Based on other answers people won't get it unlocked very easily.
Thanks !

You'll have to have someone on AT&T unlock it (presuming its been paid off and everything) for you.
