Do you need a tmobile sim card to unlock the phone? or can you unlock the phone without having a tmobile sim card in the phone while you are unlocking it?

First step:
Read in the Dev section.
hi yes i have looked at
http://androidflip.com/how-to-root-sony-xperia-x10-arc-arcs-play-ray-neo-mini-minipro-pro-active/
but it doesnt say anything about sim unlocking the phone
you need to input a password when you put other sim card on your phone didn't you?
if so, you need to have sim unlock password which you can get it by searching the keyword "sim unlock service" on google.
but if the sim unlock password screen didn't appear, you have to flash your rom first.
hello everyone,
been out of the scene for a while, and I just sold my dell streak, however, the new owner cannot use his new dell streak as its locked to AT&T. I obtained an unlock code from them by calling them, but the streak is on MIUI and the menu that ask for the unlock number does not come up, is there any other way to do this? do I have to flash an original android firmware to it? Thanks in advance.

you said it is sim unlocking... therefore (usually) it is phone related locking... not from at&t... there should be a menu for security > sim card lock
im just trying to unlock the phone to be used with TMobile, it is locked to AT&T not sure if it's phone or sim. AT&T gave me a code to unlock it but when I insert the sim the menu to unlock it doesn't pop up

open Settings > Security and search for something similar to sim card lock... you should get something from there...
if you get nothing.. most probably the phone is network locked... my phone is network unlocked where i can insert any sim... and it does have sim card lock in case there is someone else want to use the phone and use another sim card in it...
If you mean CARRIER unlocking and not the sim card itself, you have to install a stock rom. Sim unlocking isnt exactly something that can be easily tested on a custom rom, so that's your only reliable way of doing so.
If you mean the actual sim card itself, cant help ya
anyone care to share some rom links, all the ones ive tried dont work or a whole bunch of ads come up.

Dear Sir(s),
I need help.I have Xperia Mini Pro but unable to use it for last couple of months.It always is showing NETWORK IS NOT AVAILABLE.I have found that Settings->Location & Security->Set up SIM card lock->Lock SIM card , remains always open and reflects REQUIRE PIN TO USE Phone even without SIM also.

Hi guys. I have a Huawei M2. It's dialer locked but not network locked (tried 2 diff SIMs).
Most people will slot in a SIM and it prompts the unlock code. Mine doesn't do that. I have the unlock code. But I don't know where to enter it :S
