check with your carrier website if they do offer unlocking the device by yourself.
my carrier in my country offers unlocking the device by yourself for free in their website, however they charge a small fee if you unlock it through their shops

Hi, I've just bought an XDA 2 off contract, SIM FREE. However even though it's not locked to a network when you put a non-O2 sim card in it asks for an unlock code.
Does anybody know the unlock code to make it SIM FREE, or is it specific to each device???
Which means it is locked to a network, namely O2, the only way to get the unlock at the moment is from O2.

I met the same problem. I sent email to O2 Data support and explain situation. They asked me copy of the receipt, model number and IMEI of the unit. And at least i've got code. So, you must proof that you bought unit off contract.
can you tell me the email address you sent it to?
thanks

The same as in User Guide [email protected]
O2 have unlocked my xda2,
I provided them with imei only and they were very helpful, if only they could start to make their xda's unlocked in future so that we dont all have this trouble.
o2 are impossible!!
i think i need a miracle to get a unlatching code any time soon!
any miracle workers out there contact me plzzz!!
thanking u in advance
Well, I'm also waiting for a miracle, after several hours on the phone with no results....and from France , it's a lot of money....for nothing !!!
i bought the XDA2 @ expansys (ok it s more expensive) but i get the unlock code included in the package on a paper sheet as well and it worked perfectly on French and belgian networks
Hi ! Cyberbob, after an ultimate call to O2 , i'll probably do like you and sell my xda2 locked as a simple pda ....
But don't believe it's more expensive on Expansys (LOL !) , I have paid 1030 euros to the guy who bought the xda2 for me in Uk , plus around 8 hours of phone calls to UK from france....so I think , Expansys price is not so bad , and your xda2 is sim free ! :wink:
the price for exclusivity of having the first XDA2 in France
i guess it will be to bad to sell it as a simple PDA i hope you ll find a better solution
unlock tool

Hello all
Is it possible tu unlock xperia x10 mini at home somehow for free rooting it or whatever? (other than pay stupid amounts of money for having the IMEI code unlock)
I've just unlocked mine via www.liberaporimei.eu, €22 - worked perfectly
I don't think there is a reliable way of doing it yourself. If you really need to unlock the phone (ie plan on using a phone that is worth several 00 Euros on a different network), I think this is your route.
& as ever, given the cost of the phone, it's not an outlandish amount to pay.
Will it unlock Vodafone Spain network locked phones? I have seen some on eBay that might be interesting, now I just need to convince Spanish people that they can send outside of Spain, which is not an easy task .

Yes - mine was locked to Vodafone Spain's network.
Well,
Sort of a noob question, but since I dont know how easy or hard could it be.
If I buy a SGS-II with a service plan in UK (Orange, Voda etc), then can it be unlocked to be used in other countries or other operators.
I know maybe it has got something to do with the gaining the root access to the handset or even a root access achieve the desired.
Thanks for suggestions.

It's got nothing to do with root and everything to do with the carrier, some will deliver locked phones, some unlocked.. most usually contract phones are unlocked and PAYG phones are locked
I'm on O2 contract and the phones I've had have always been unlocked, but I've heard Orange do network lock their phone
Orange do always lock their phones but if you get it from an independent seller like the Carphone Warehouse or Phones4u the chances are it'll be unlocked.
Most networks will unlock your phone for a small fee (I think I paid £25 on Orange) but it's only a matter of time before sellers on eBay popup that will sell you an unlock code based on your IMEI.
You're right that you could unlock handsets with root access but that involved flashing another radio. Since no locked SGS2's have been released yet you're safe buying now and the phone hasn't been rooted so you may be waiting a while for that option if you get a locked handset in the future.
You could always use a Rebel SimCard. Its not the perfect solution but it works.
So we just have to wait basically. O2 are offering it for 399£ apparently on payg. It would be awesome to get it for that price and then unlock it.

Last year, o2 were selling the SGS1 on PAYG. I think the handsets were supposed to be locked but they weren't. If you're in luck then maybe same is true for SGS2. I've pulled the trigger on the SGS2 with contract from o2 as total cost works out cheaper that any PAYG or sim free offer currently available.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
Does orange still exist over there?
Three took over Orange over here in Australia years ago
On three if you call them up they give you the unlock code for free
I asked a popular online unlocking firm what the likelihood of the SGS2 being unlocked was and this was his reply:
Hi Aaron,
This should be no problem at all. That's because there's one main database for all European Samsung Android handsets. We have unlocked the Samsung Galaxy S from all 6 main UK networks.

Are you going to use them to unlock? When can they do it? & who are they?

I will ask them to unlock if my SGS2 arrives locked. I found them doing a quick google search. I am not sure I am allowed to post links so mods please remove if that is the case. http://www.mobileunlocked.co.uk/
There are many more if you do a google search.
hey guys i just bought an optimus one, i like it but its sim locked.
can anyone recommend a good website where i can buy an unlock code from ?
thx !
phone is locked on vodafone romania ^_^
You should head to your local phone service provider and they should do it for you. Not more than $10 US.
In my country , they do it for free.

Hello, I buy a lg V10 H901 on ebay I use it for several months without any worries I live in France so I used the temporary unlocking of the application "device unlock" but since yesterday impossible to use it the temporary unlocking no longer works and thus the phone and block I am therefore not t-mobile client is there a software way to unlock it?
??
No solution for unlocking ?
No there is no known method other than using the app. You may be able to purchase an unlock and seller would submit your imei for processing on Tmobile server I would assume.

Yeah I mean usually those services are pretty cheap like 30 or lower to remote unlock the phone. Worth a shot just look for reviews of those sites first too.
