If you want a unlocked phone you need to buy it simfree sorry! Here is the wrong forum for such stuff, ask in unlocked forums for it.

Hello Guys
I have a stupid question, can someone tell me how to unlock Xperia S so that I will be able to use any sim from any network? I have a chance to buy Xperia S on Monday but it is locked to 3 network in UK and I'm currently in Tesco Mobile. Please can someone help asap. Thanks
Maybe if you flash a world generic firmware.
Next time ask in Q&A forum.

Is that it? God I thought it will be much harder because I couldn't find it anywhere how to do it. The only way to do it I found was to buy an unlock code for £44 . Sorry for posting here, next time I will write in Q&A if I will have a problem like that. Thanks for your help

I just phoned o2 as they are my network provider and they gave me the unlock code, put a different SIM card in from a different network and put in the code.
I thought they had to.

Ask your carrier to unlock it.

But I'm buying it from someone who just got his upgrade but he doesn't want it so do you think they will do it for me too?

For most carriers it's against the contract to resell locked devices.

That's why I am informing you. If you ask them to unlock a phone that was sold as a contract violation, it won't do you any good.

There is a way, called ezSEMC. But it costs $40, but it also unlocks bootloader. I can't link yet, but its microunlocker (.) com

This would be the case if the original person bought it with contract. But if he got it sim free( pay as you go), then it is legal.
To answer the original question, the only way is to phone three themselves and ask for unlocking code, I think it is 20-30 pounds
I recently bought the Xperia U for my partner that was locked to the 3 network. They will unlock it, BUT the person on the contract will have to make th call and they will supply him with the code, can take up to a week for it as it comes from Sony themselves. I think the cost was about £15 for it.

Can I just say, I've had three Xperia S's now and they've all been unlocked by default. It can't be a coincidence that this happens.
This is Ireland, and the majority of our handsets are locked- so I can't see why other countries are having issues with it.

By unlock you mean: Unlock it from AT&T, to use it with other carriers ie. T-mobile, simple mobile or to go overseas and use a different simcard?

Technically no, they are not the same. However if you did find a way to Sim unlock, it would work overseas too.
I'm guessing you're looking for a free way to Sim unlock your phone. And as far as I know there is none. However people have had success with Chainfire's
RegionUnlock. It may or may not work I can't say, I don't even have a usable sim card to test it for you. But you have to be ROOTED for it to work. I hope I helped.:good::fingers-crossed:

Nah, IF RegionUnlock DOES unlock your phone, it will work with t-mobile and overseas, because its unlocking All Regions, even local sim cards will work!:fingers-crossed:

WAIT ONE SECOND! Did you actually unlock the phones? Did you check with a different sim card first? I'm just making sure cuz I did not say RegionAway would work, I said It might work.

My friend bought a Z2 from AT&T, and it's locked!
When I put my simcard, my phone ask me for a code to unlock. How can I get this code?

The most reliable service. Just make sure you have enough counts to unlock.
In addition to the above poster's URL, there's also http://www.cellunlocker.net/sony-ericsson-unlock.php
I provided the AT&T link first because it's free to unlock. If AT&T gives you a hard time, I'd go with cellunlocker.

Know what? If it's reliable? Trust me I've done lots of them with these guys. Very reliable, very fast. Read reviews of them.
I'm not affiliated in any way. I'm just a happy customer. You can try any other.
Why after so many months, there are still no custom roms being made for this phone? Is it because of the second screen or because no one cares enough to do one?
Because of the locked bootloader
Only tmobile variant is unlockable
Very disappointing....

Can't you use the TMO variant with some random small-dollar plan for just a couple months, pay off the phone, then take it to Verizon unlocked?

AFAIK, Verizon checks MEID from their inventory table and won't allow activation if it is not in their inventory table.

Verizon would never activate it on their network anyways, so it doesn't matter. They whitelist IMEIs.

I figured being similar to the g4 we wouldn't have issues getting a rom from a dev. I read a post from someone saying they were able to get a g4 rom to flash on the v10.

My thoughts exactly
The lack of development for this phone is the main reason I wish I didn't get this phone.
It's interesting that there isn't much development on this phone considering its one that seems to appeal to power users with Microsd support, battery removal and the secondary screen.
Well, I would think someone would have to figure out root first since the tmobile version is the only one with root so far.
People seem to be trying but it's slow going!
