SIM Unlock by flashing ROM? - Nokia Lumia 800

I have a T-Mobile USA locked Lumia 710, would it be possible to unlock by flashing this ROM:
1600.3031.8773.12121
059P8W2: Nokia 710 RM-809 VIVO BR Black v1 (No SIM Lock)
It seems to be built for the Brazilian carrier Vivo.

To answer my own question and for anyone else who was hoping to get a free unlock via flashing this ROM, the answer appears to be no.
I have flashed it via nokia suite and it still asks for the unlock code. I wonder why it would be labelled "(No SIM Lock)"

[Q] Rom flashing & Sim unlock code

Hi,
I have an X10i branded Bouygues Telecom (France) fw 2.1.A.0.435, baseband 2.1.54. My phone is Simlocked in Bouygues network but the operator will provide me the free sim unlock code in 6 months (not now).
So I want to know if I flash my phone with another firmware (generic or custom), and another baseband, I will still unlock my phone with the same code ?
or I have to flash back to original branded Bouygues Rom to enter de sim unlock code ?
Thank you for your answers.
Please answer my question !
You don't have to flash the original firmware just to unlock SIM.

Once unlocked the phone will remain unlocked, it will not revert back to the locked status after flashing the rom.
I presume that you have unlocked it using the code from the provider or a third party?
I think that what he's really asking is that, if flashing the device would make any difference when the time of unlocking the device come... Actually, no matter what you do to the device the IMEI is going to remain the same, IMEI is a unique combination of number that each phone has, which is the information they use to generate the unlock code. So, feel free to play with new roms on your device... It won't make any difference.
I hope this helps you...

SIM Unlock through Software

I know a lot of phones such as Samsung and HTC allow you to SIM Unlock your device when you root your phone, is it at all possible to do the same with the Nokia Lumia 710? Long story short, I ordered an unlock code for my device and its been 3 weeks and they have yet to give me a unlock code. I was hoping to find an alternative solution that would allow me to SIM Unlock my phone.
From what carrier is your phone?

T-Mobile is the carrier the phone is locked to, I am trying to use it on AT&T.
Do you try with code?

I purchased an unlock code but they told me that they could not locate it from any of their databases. I tried cellunlocker.net, I am trying another seller but I am hoping that I don't have the same issue.
The second place where I ordered an unlock code also said they could not obtain my unlock code.
Any reason why an unlock code wouldn't be listed in a database??
My Telus L800 is sim-unlocked via a code so I am not sure what to tell you really. Have you tried contacting T-Mobile for the code?

Help - Sim Unlock O2 phone

Hi Guys,,
I need some help. I have an O2 Lumia 800 from the UK. I am currently outside the UK, and want this phone unlocked.
I dont have the original sim either.
I am even open to having a custom ROM installed.
Can someone point out what options I have right now to get the phone unblocked.
Appreciate any help,
Thanks,
crusieUser
If you have the option to install a custom rom then you have the Qualcomm bootloader, if so you can use NSS from this forum post

I think i have DLOAD, what options do I have?
Hi Guys,
Just wondering,
Cellularunlocker.net has unlock codes for Orange, will this work with O2 ? (just curious)
Your options are (as far as I know) to get it unlocked from O2 themselves, if a website say's "Orange only" then they won't have the codes for O2.
