HI guys just thought id let every one know i got my phone sim unlocked using the IMEI code for less that $3 on ebay just search for unlockfusion
I got it today after selling my xpeira play, and its just pure epic and its my first tab so happy to own it.
But this is from japan, and its locked to docomo I guess. When i insert my sim it says to enter the unlock code
So is there anyway to unlock this?
Thanks for every comment
I presume you need the code from the simcard ?
Yes sir I called customer care but they said they cannot provide me that :O

Is it a new simcard or is it from your old phone ?.If it's your old simcard then surely you should know the code ?

Its my old sim card but I dont think its asking for the sim lock code. its asking for the "SIM NETWORK Unlock Code"
Have you finally found the way to unlock sim network lock? I've bought my Tablet S from Japan and it's sim network locked. I can't find any solution at the moment. Please let me know, if you found the way. Thank you!

Your network service provider must be able to give you the unlock code!

Nope, I called em and asked.. they said look for a third party as its illegal for em to give the code to me.,
there where number generators back in the old sim unlocking days, you need imei, phone type, and serviceprovider where the tablet came with.
Dont know if they still make that kind of generators but you can always try

Come on it's totally rubbish!! they should be able to give you the code upon you providing them with identification! This is what service providers doing here and I got my forgotten sim unlock code once from 3. The code prevents improper/unauthorized use, e.g. someone stole your phone and put the sim card in his own mobile phone.
Or you can try reporting loss of your sim card and ask for replacement card with the unlock code.
Hope this information helps.

Thank you for your advice. I think you misunderstand here. We are not talking about 4-digit "PIN Code". We are talking about "SIM Network Unlock Code" which is locked by a provider who don't want us to use other provider's sim card with the phone.

I know it's not the 4 digit PIN Code. Misunderstanding maybe. Here we only have two unlock code set by the service providers, the first one is as described in my previous post, the other is the device unlock code to lock the phone and will only be disclosed upon contract expiry (some service provider will not provide this code to clients but simply unlock the phone upon contract expiry).

Thank you again for the suggestion. I think it's difficult in my case because I bought the Tablet from Japan but I'm using it in Thailand. So, I might try to contact DOCOMO to ask for sim network unlock code.

Same thing here, Mine is also from japan and locked to docomo. I saw this site that unlocks the device it costs $64
How can i sim unlock my mini without purchasing one of those unlock codes ?
if you bought your phone with contract after the finalization of the contract you can ask to the mobile company for a code to unlock it.
That is the problem, i bought the phone broken so I dont know to which carrier is it locked and i cant ask anyone to unlock it
Hi, I successfully unlocked bootloader and rooted phone following various guides here,
but does anyone know how to unlock sim locked to Tesco Mobile?
If I have to I'll pay, but not the ridiculous £20 Tesco want.
When I insert another sim I get message
"SIM network unlock PIN" giving me 2 options "Unlock" and "Dismiss",
I've tried some cheap ebay sim unlockers, but they didn't work.
I've read that Tesco double lock their sims, whatever that means.
If I have to pay, can anyone recommend reliable site?
Thank you
Steve

I just used this guy. Seems very honest. If he can't find your IMEI in his usual Server, he contacts the 'Not Found IMEIs' server for an additional £4. Still cheaper than Vodafone and Tesco:

Thank you, sent him imei and paid, I will post result.

Hi all,
I bought LG G5 in Bosnia and Herzegovina and it worked with BH Mobile SIM card. Now I have gone out of the country and put in different SIM card, and it asks me to enter network sim unlock pin. I bought phone in a store, not from the operator directly so I expected it to be unlocked.
While I'm trying to get them send me unlock code, I am also looking online for a solution, but so far I see the only possibility is to use online unlocking services. However, I see there are a lot of fake ones, so I'd like to ask if there is any reputable source for unlocking the SIM or it's best to take the phone to some of the phone service stores and ask them to unlock it for a fee?
Thank you for your help.
Regards,
