Hi there,
I've been trying to unlock my Xperia S (lt26i), which is locked to Rogers. I tried many online "unlock code service providers" but no one could locate my IMEI number. I called Rogers , but they told me that my IMEI doesn't exist in their database. NOW, i am wondering how can i unlock this phone while no one can find the IMEI number.
P.S: I also called Sony Xperia but they couldn't find any career associated with my IMEI number.
Please help!!!

if you are out of contract then call your operator to ask for unlock code. there are different unlock codes for different x10's.

short answer - no
You need to SIM unlock the phone - safest way is through IMEI

You do not change the IMEI of your phone. Messing with IMEI is illegal, and you normally need special hardware for it.
To unlock your phone you need to go to a company (website) that sells unlock codes for your phone.
Than you need to pay some fee, and they will ask you for 3 things.
Phone model: In this case X10 mini pro (you need to check if it is u20i or u20a)
If you are from Europe it is probably an u20i.
Network it is locked to: example Vodafone, etc.
Country it is locked to: example Spain.
And the IMEI: you can see your IMEI if you dial *#06#
If the examples match your phone, this means that you have a Spanish Vodafone locked X10 mini pro (U20i) than you can go here and after you pay 22€ and give them the information they will send you the correct unlock code.
Good luck and I hope this information was helpful.
hi all, my xperia mini pro is locked to tesco mobile. does anyone now were to get a tesco unlock code and yes i have searched forums but nothing straight forward!!

does unlocking bootloader remove simlock?
http://www.fastgsm.com/en/sonyericsson/se/xperia-mini-pro/unlock-network/flashing-debrand
found something £12-15
The sim lock is removed by paying an unlocking company to get you the code. It costed me $7.99 Canadian to get it done. There is plenty of websites that will do it for you. you just give them your imei # which is easy to find on the phone. They will send you back an unlock code. No the bootloader unlock will not unlock the sim.
thanks but i am on tesco uk so i dont think canadian unlock company will have uk codes.
I want to unlock it.
Who can tell me ways to unlock it?

Hi,
I gave my S3 (stock rom french carrier bouygues) to my son and order a new sim to a different carrier than the original one
Sim arrived and my son, try to install it
The problem is that he answer sim 4 digit code a lot of time when network unlock (carrier unlock) code was asked
My S3 has more than 6 month so I asked my provider to give me the unlock code...
They did but it doesn't work.
Call again.. they told me that carrier unlock code input is limited and if the unlock code doesn't work I had to send it to Samsung to unlock it.
I spent my week end to try all possible unlock process exposed on this xda amazing forum and didn't succeed with anyone
: Voodoo with and without Patch and busibox, GalaxSim Unlock, menu *#197328640# ...
Result ;
Voodoo & GalaxSim can't read SIM unlock statut
Code *#7465625# doesn't work
*#197328640# doesn't have the Unlock Phone menu ("Menu doesn't exist)
All those process has been done with new installs, wipe each time (makes me going mad!!!)
Is any one has a solution.
Thanks for you help
nb : hope my english is enough good to make my problem understandable...
No, with the new efs format all the previous unlock methods don't work. You'll need a service centre.

It was S3 MINI but also on xxemg4 baseband...
Might not be anything but did you upgrade to version 4.3 ?
If you did this might be the problem, I have an S4 that is locked to Bell and have tried multiple sites and Bell directly, all gave me the same unlock code.
When I tried to enter the code it kept saying unsuccessful
My guess is that along with the update Samsung locked some security feature for unlocking the phone
Right now my option is to sell the phone or wait until Samsung launches a new update
