Yea, it's same IMEI in everywhere.

I suggest you to flash some ROM, i think it will remove any SIM Locks and so one. Find ROM on development forum for your phone.
You can get a Worldwide sony ericsson Unlock Code from imeicodes.co.uk this however takes about a week to get your code, so you need to be patient. The code will work fine aslong as you havent used up your tries to enter it (just like a nokia phone). It's a good idea to check your unlock code attempts before ordering a code by doing the following:
Press menu < < menu < menu menu <
Then you can check the counter [0 or 5].
If it says 0 then you cannot enter codes.
And STOP giving your IMEI on public sites!

Thanks. but, now im trying to install custom rom to my mobile.
Thanks again for infor
This http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=888227is not ROM but tutorial on making new one. I'm using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1059361 and it's very good. First you have to check if your Baseband Version is M76XX-TSNCJOLYM-53404015 (Settings→Phone info (I don't remember how it exactly is in English). If not, you must use FlashTool to change it. Next, you have to root your device, install ClockWorkMod (xRecovery) and flash your new ROM.
I'm not sure if it will remove SIM Lock although it's worth of trying. Ask if you have any questions.
Sorry about my english if I wrote sth wrong

99% sure roms don't remove sim locks :<
Flashing a ROM has nothing to do with your SIM Lock. So no flashing will magically unlock your device. You need to get the proper unlock code, or have someone with a unlock dongle to do it.

Sure if you got more tries to use with correct unlock code you still can do that.
Else you can get it unlocked via dongle.

1st you need to root it ! go on "original android development" find the tutorial for rooting and do it
after you root you can go to android market and search for unlock sgs2 or just type "chainfire" and you gona see the application to unlock you phones for all networks
my android version is 2.3.5 will this still work?

Are we talking sim unlock? If so search market for sim unlock and use the chinfire or helroz ones.
I had no luck with chainfires but the helroz one worked perfectly.
Mine was locked to orange.

I believe device needs to be rooted first ? And yes - i need sim unlock
yes both those apps need root, but should defo do the sim unlock for you. worked for me

Hi There,
I'm getting a little stuck with IHASHGPU. I tried all the hashes in my nv_data.bin but unfortunately I don't have a compatible GPU.
I've extracted the nv_data.bin and have attached the file.
I have the unlock code from my network provider but it doesn't work and I think I need the unfreeze code now. Would someone be able to extract the unfreeze and unlock codes or provide a clean nv_data.bin for me? Either one would be greatly appreciated. I'm just restriced due to compatability issues.

Why dont you just use Chainfires free unlock app from the market.
https://market.android.com/details?...sImV1LmNoYWluZmlyZS5zZ3Myc2ltdW5sb2NrY29kZSJd
Some say that when you put in the code it says Code Incorrect but unlocks the phone anyway but Ive had the same message unlocking phones via IMEI unlock so wouldnt this be easier.Alot of people swear by it.

I didn't get any prompts when I used it. I hit step 1 so it did the backup, there was a confirmation there. Then pressed step 2 and the screen went blank for a few seconds, the phone rebooted and all of a sudden it was unlocked.
I have a very stupid problem that I need help with.
Okay so I bought my SGSII around a year ago, It is a Gt-I9100M model from Bell Canada
I got it sim unlocked from one of those online websites. It was going great for a year and even after the ICS update. anyways recently I flashed custom rom on it and it got locked again. I tried both the chainfire unlock method and it said no code available and I tried the galaxy_s unlock one as well.
Both don't work. I returned back to stock ICS firmware and tried them again and still they aren't working. I'm really po'd at the moment because nothing I really need this device to work asap.
Did u pull of battery and sim once til now?
Did u try a factory reset? (After going back to stock)
Last option is to ask the provider in any way....
Sorry no more ideas from me for now...
CHEERS

Hello Guys!
I've try to cut it short.I would like to debrand (sim unlock) my SGS3, I used a tool named GalaxSim Unlocker, but it sad
"Either your nv_data md5 file is inexistent/wron or Samsung md5 function has changed. Stopping here to prevent eventual errors."
What is it? How can I fix this? or there is other method to network unlock my phone ?
HELP ME
THANK YOU GUYS BEFORE
Best way at present is to purchase an unlocking code from your network. The previously posted free methods don't work anymore due to changes by Samsung to the efs folder.

Is it possible to downgrade the rom and the modem for the one click method ?
Cost for a code varies, contact your network and a few repair ships to compare.
Yes, you could downgrade to older baseband -but only if you have a backup of your pre-MG4 efs folder and know what you're doing. Chances of bricking the phone are fair and you'll be stuck on that baseband, any upgrade will again lock the network.
That's why I said a code is currently the best option.
OK
