I'd like to know if anyone can give me input to SIM-unlock Nokia Lumia Windows Phone 7.5 - Network carrier 3 Hutchinson Austria.
I have no luck in finding a firm who offers a low price deal.
3 Hutchinson Austria can unlock for 390 Euro within the contract / 99 Euro when the contract already over. It's too pricy.
A local shop told me I should wait a few months because now it's still too expensive to unlock the Lumia 800 (~90 Euro on his shop) - but I need to use this phone with other SIM/carrier. I contacted Cellunlocker with no luck (see their reply below), I googled some sites such as Unlockliberty, Unlockfusion, FoneFunShop,... they cannot unlock network carrier 3 Hutchinson Austria. I'd appreciate any help.

Unfortunately we cannot unlock your phone under that carrier at this time.
Were sorry for any inconveniences this has caused,
Thank you

I have just got myself a new HTC 7 Mozart and it is locked to O2 UK
I tried various locations including eBay to get an unlock code for it and none seem to be able to get a code for my IMEI.
I got myself a Rebel Sim II with the programmer and programmed the sim to the 1.3 beta and still no joy, just won't come up with service, just has the circle with the line through it in top left.
Any ideas how I can get this phone unlocked as I want to use it with my Virgin mobile sim.
where did you purchase the handset from? contract..
https://www.o2.co.uk/apps/help/help?qid=1&q1=2&route=unlocking&case=Handset Unlocking Form
It is brand new on a contract with O2.
Ill try that link and see what they say.
Thanks
I recently purchase HTC Mozart on Pay n Go and filled the form for unlocking. when did you hear about unlocking after sumbitting that form?
I got my reply from O2 and they unlocked it without any problems.
Got my code after 5 days of submitting the form.
Thanks chetzy
Apparently for people with a contract on O2 they will do it for free, just as long as you honour your contract term.
Pay and go customers they may only do it after 1 year after you have registered the phone or it may possibly cost £15 which they will take from your credit which you will need to have available on your sim. If you didn't buy the phone direct from O2 they may not do it.
Thanks for the update. I bought it from O2 store and the store people assured me that it will be unlocked within 28 days and £15 will be deducted from your pay go balance. so let's see. thanks again.
Hi, I've had a look around a few forums and online services but I can't seem to find a way to network unlock my HTC 7 Mozart thats on Orange.
I am an OUK customer, but I'm leaving the UK in 6 weeks so I'd like to keep my handset. My problem with calling Orange is that I didn't get my handset from them but off ebay. I emailed the seller asking if he could ask Orange for the code but he didn't reply. Orange keep telling me no when I call them or go instore - pretty poor service considering I've been with them for 11 years and I'm band 5.
Is there a ROM, update or code that I can use to unlock this and use it for any network?
There are loads of options on the web. Try this one:

Its cheaper not to use Orange anyway to get the phone unlocked as they will charge £20, you can get it cheaper and quicker elsewhere.
I used a service which sent me a code in under 5 mins and cost about £15.00 via Paypal.

Orange are not as helpful as they use to be since teaming up with t-Mobile, I recently gave up a 17 year account with them worth £300 per month and ill take my others with them when they expire too.
Hi.
I have locked Lumia 800 of the operator O2 UK.
Does anyone have experience with http://www.cellunlocker.net ?
After entering the IMEI into the form I got the info /Matching IMEI record found and ready for processing!/. Price is around 30€ and a waiting period 3-10 business days.
Is it real and reliable ?
if you're on o2 pay monthly you can unlock your phone for free on their website.
it takes 2 weeks max, and the SIM must be in the handset at all times (don't put the SIM into a different phone)
O2 unlocking form
don't worry about it mentioning the iphone. it works for most o2 locked phones.
Thx but the problem is that I got it and I don't know for which contract /if at all/ has been purchased and I don't have the original o2-uk sim card.
Therefore I think about the method of unlocking from www.cellunlocker.net
Still nothing new ?
I've bought a few unlocked codes from cellunlocker for my BlackBerry phones. No experiences with other phone brands.
Overall, it's a good site to me. You should use Paypal to protect your purchase .

HI, Did you have any luck with this? I have an o2 mobile that I want unlocked too. I checked cellularunlocker.net however they seem to have the option only for Orange and not o2.
Did you have any success?
Hi Guys,
As of Today 2 nov 2012, Mobileunlocked.co.uk, and CellUnlocker are unlocking O2 Lumia phones. I was able to get my Lumia 800 unlocked. I got the code within 3 days.

How much did they charge buddy?
hi guys,does anybody knows how to unlock nokia lumia 800 (uk) to all networks??my is on orange uk and i want to use o2 on it but i have no idea how to do it!thanks
If you have the Qualcomm bootloader you can use NSS 0.50 to unlock it (the post in a few posts down in this forum). If you don't have the Qualcomm then currently the only way to unlock it is to get Orange to do it but you need to have had the phone registered to them for at least 3 months before they will do it (costs £20 or so)

Was the phone you bought new or used? If it was used, how long had it been active on the network? I also bought an 800 off ebay and Orange refuse to unlock it until it's been on the network for 3 months. Yes, I have an Orange PAYG sim, I also got my dad to send me his PAYG sim (which is old) and as long as their computer shows the phone has been registered on the network less than 3 months they will not unlock it.
lumia unlock
the orange lumia was less then a month old, all i done was got a pay and go sim wacked £25 on it then phoned their customer services, told them i wanted a unlock code, they took my imei number and i waited 2 weeks, at no point was i asked about 3 months or anything they did what i requested with no issues at all.
i would recommend giving them another ring if they ask if the phone is use for 3 months say yeah it has been just say somthing like you been living over seas or somthin and if you dont get the result, phone again just tell them what they want to hear thats what i would do
rob
You must have got the lucky CS member that other people get. When you phone up they look on the computer and it tells them when the phone was first used on the network (when the IMEI number was first used on the network that is) so they know when the phone was first used. I've phoned several times and talked to several different people, always the same response "not for 3 months".
lumia unlock
you could try using a t-mobile sim and phone them for a unlock i have read on here that other users have had success with that
rob
It is true that the new network (everything everywhere I believe it's called) is locked to both T-Mobile and Orange so either should be able to unlock it. I only have until the end of August before Orange will allow me the pleasure of using my phone on my chosen network though but I'm hopeful that the DLOAD gets cracked before that so I can unlock it for free.
Orange though recommend getting a 3rd party to unlock the phone when they won't! It's like "we won't unlock it for business purposes, but you can get someone else to unlock it and we'll not get the money for unlocking it, great business plan we have don't ya think?!"
I've been searching for a reasonably priced unlock service for my Rogers Lumia 920 but most unlock services are priced at $20 and above. Searching on eBay I find quite a few sellers offering cheap AT&T unlock codes, $4 and less, but Rogers Lumia 920 unlock codes are priced way higher. Does anyone know of a reasonably priced service?
Also, do I have to reset my phone to original state, prior to "Portico", for the unlock codes to work?
Any help would be appreciated.
I was not aware the Rogers phone is locked since it is not an AT&T subsidized model. The lock is to keep you from buying the AT&T at a reduced price and then using it on another network.

You can try to contact the cellular to get unlock code.
