How?
Please, xda-developers, please, we need to unlock our XDA II ; 'til that I just can use it as a PDA
Thank's a lot, guys, if you have time ...
o2 charged me £15 for the unlock code...got it within 48 hours
Hi,
What number at O2 did you call to unlock the phone and what excuse did you you use?
Thanks,
K
just plain customer services from my handset ..and just asked for it to be unlocked..i just said that i wanted to use a foreign sim card when abroad
xda 2 Unlock code, i have one
I have an unlock code for XDA 2, please e-mail me and I can send it to someone to see if it works. Completeley free as I don't know if it will work. :?
Unlock codes will be unique to each Xda II IMEI.
So, I very much doubt your code will work in any Xda.
I'd imagine the Xda II will be much harder to unlock than Xda I
Xda 2 Unlock
You are more than welcome to try if you wish.
No master code? Ah well, such is life.

Can you also use other UK SIMs, e.g., Vodaphone?
Could you also send the telephone number you called?
Many thanks
Unlock codes
O2 customer services are so inconsistent keep phoning everyone. I phoned three times first time I was told it could not be done, second time the woman said she would put the request in for me and it would cost me £15.00 and that she would phone me back. As she didn't phone back I phoned the next day to complain and got passed to a supervisor who told me that O2 were no longer issuing codes for the XDA II as they wanted it to be for O2 only and that this had come from the board of directors!! He add though, that if I paid my contract out which he said would be £400.00 plus the £15.00 they would consider it. I am on pay as you go so I could not do this and wouldn't anyway. I accepted this and thought I would wait for the developers here to sort it out, within 5 minutes of me putting the phone down the lady I spoke to the day before from O2 rang back and said " I have the code I requested yesterday would you like it?" Naturally I said yes, She then gave it to me asked me if she could help me with anything else, which I replied no, and she put the phone down. The best part about this is that she forgot to charge me £15.00 for the code, She hasn't taken it from my C/Card or my payg balance, BONUS!!!!! 8)
So everyone, Just Keep trying O2 Customer Services on 08702410202 and press Zero until you go through to a Human Being.
unlockin the xda 2 drama's!!
Im so sad!
jus been on phone to o2 so many times today but they jus wont unlock it!
even after saying that its against offtel regs they said its their own make so they dont hav to unlock it....
so if any1 knos of a independant shop who will help or of any1 who has a code - plz help me!!
thanks
You won't believe this!!
My Brother got an XDA II which he gave to me to get unlocked, I had no luck with normal O2 customer services. However, his contract is a corporate contract, So I used his details and after hanging around on the phone for about an hour I went through to a personal Corporate advisor who will now be e-mailing me the code in two or three days. It was so easy!!!! no questions asked. They said they would charge the acount, which is fine by me!!
The moral to this story is - if you know anyone who has a corperate acount with O2, ask them very nicely if you can use their details.
You will need - The mobile number, The company name, The company address, the O2 contact person (if possible, if not just say you don't know), The name of your mate and the IMEI number also the e-mail address of your mate with company.
Good Luck and keep trying!!
Maybe at some point we can provide some help
No promises, but we do not have locked devices ourselves. So if you could go to http://xda-developers.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=4095 with your locked device and send me some info...
Thanks,
Thanks a lot xda-devs , we are crossing fingers !!!
I went to the thread to see if I can help, but it appears to be chinese to me ... I have not Linux, but if I can help in any way, let me know by PM... :wink:
any news yet...
hi..noob here...
this seems a hot topic... are we any nearer to unlocking the XDAII...
must be someone, somewhere...
hopefully...

Hi,
I've worked on unlocking software before.. Is there any info on exactly how the locking in this phone works? I was quite surprised to see AT commands can do it. Have they left some high level unlocking commands or are you accessing the flash/eeprom through those commands?
If the former i guess there is a checksum or some kinda signing algo? or is it even eaiser than that hehe
If the later, i guess you need to map the rom and eeprom before you can do it.
And erm.. couldnt we just upload the rom from a iMate Phone Edition (from Carrier Devices), which is the unlocked version of the XDA II (O2 rebadged it for their network)
Toxic.
Hmm having thought about that, the rom probably checks weather a lock is present. The only way that would work is if the iMate doesnt bother with any lock checks at all, rather than just comes unlocked.
Thats probably unlikey :-(

SIM Unlock without a SIM
Hi guys I've got the unlock code for my device but problem is I do not have a SIM from a provider other than my own. Is there any way to put in the unlock code without a foreign SIM???
I think that people´s work must be paid, but 38€ for a unlocking code its abuse, but this is just a opinion.
17,50 Euros here : http://sapphire.unlock-now.com/sim-unlock-Vodafone-HTC-Magic/
I had test it and all is OK
Hello
I have unlocked my Magic witch was SIM locked to Vodaphone Spain and all i had to do was to put in my Swedish SIM-card and power on the phone to get to a screen there i put in the unlock code. If you have your SIM card pin-protected you maight want to trie to disable the PIN first.
Hope it works out for you!

Borrow a friends sim that uses a different provider. It doesn't have to be foreign, it just has to be another network.

Sim locked T-mobile Mytouch 3G
My T-mobile Mytouch 3G is locked to T-mobile and I can't get the unlocking code nor from the unlocking websites nor from T-mobile. How can i get it unlocked?

Why can't you get an unlock code from T-Mobile? They gave me an unlock code for mine for free... http://expressunlockcode.com/htc.aspx they say that can unlock it for you.
I don't think flashing a rom unlocks it.
I got my code today. problem solved. thanks
I have the same problem. Every unlock place online says the IMEI returns a "Code Not Found"
I was able to find a guy on ebay that says he can get it even if the IMEI returns "Code Not Found" but it cost me $30
Anyone know what some IMEIs return a Code Not Found error?
Do you just call up tmo support for the unlock code? Are the specific criteria or questions that you need to meet or answer for it?
None of the websites at the moment can provide the unlock code for mytouch 3g.
The phones are new in the market.
All their databases are obsolete.

He is correct. There is one guy on ebay that can get them unlocked. It took about 3 days for me to get my unlock for him. Worked great though!

read abt HardSPL in the ROM section?? will it unlock my phone??
Hi. There are loads of sites selling unlocking codes, but be carefull, most are scams. I spent ages researching this and found these guys.
http://jade.unlock-now.com/sim-unlock-HTC-Touch-3G/
You will need a paypal account. They say they email you, but didnt, however on their tracking system i found my code waiting for me. Worked a treat. Now i'm on the 3 network.

thanks for the reply..
but, ain't there a free alternative... like in this forum many guys have unlocked their jade themselves...
15 quid shouldnt break the bank..
hi,
I've a HTC 3G T3232 & want to unlock it.
I've the unlock code with me but unable to unlock it myself manually.
Do I require specific software to unlock the phone or can it be done without it?
When I put a O2 SIM in it (its locked to Orange) - it does'nt seem to detect it and shows a "No SIM" message.
The phone works fine with a Orange SIM, though.
..pls help !! I'm

oh man, If you read it properly it clearly says IT WONT UNLOCK YOU PHONES TO OTHER NETWORKS, so it means NO sim free unlocking.

Maybe not what you were after zetex but I flashed the 1.48 ROM over my T Mobile HD2 via the goldcard method.
Result unbranded/unlocked HD2 with all the HTC apps reinstated that T Mobile decided to remove i.e you tube, jetcet printer, co pilot trial
hi
updated just had the second one come back to me with a refund

your could be my saving star..... i will have a look into that
i didnt realise by updating the rom using the goldcard method actually unlocked the phone as welll...
is this true, i dont mind flashing it at all... just want it to work on o2
thanks alot
Z
Your best option would seem is to upgrade your ROM to unbranded 1.48 via goldcard?
That's what I have done from O2 ROM. I'm sure it would work for T Mobile.
I just changed my sim and it doesnt unlock my phone it is still tied to O2 sorry
hi,
i may sound stupid, but are you sure that t-mob uk devices has a netlocked?. i only ask because german t-mob devices arent netlocked at all. the only (stupid) thing t-(in)mobile germany does, was to lock the internet connection. so you can dialin only via them, but that could be fixed by simply using the goldcard method to update to a nice brandingfree rom.
regards mad
hi
so by flashing it using an unbranded rom with a goldcard does not unlock it??
really sorry im all new to this??
thanks alot
Z
hi,
maybe we are talking about different things. but for me unlocking means removing the sim/netlock. so that after unlocking, i can use any sim from any provider i like, to make phonecalls etc..
what happens if you put a simcard from a different provider to your hd2? can you use your phone to call someone? if so your phone is not sim/netlocked anyhow.
mad
Hi, I was wondering the same a Madbird, as I bought a Tmobile HD2 a couple of weeks ago, and was very pleased when i realised it didnt have a tmobile badge on, and when i tried my Virgin sim it worked fine. Maybe I just struck lucky!
Use www.your-unlock.com It's what I used for mine and it worked no trouble, just put your other sim in and turn it on and it will ask you for an unlock code, enter the one that site e-mails you.

This works for T-Mobile UK
Try unlockdata.co.uk. They generated a code which I was able to enter into my HD2 to allow all networks..

Hey, I got a T-Mobile UK HD2 also. I have also just submitted my code to Your-Unlock.com. Well after seeing your post I would not expect much. Anyway I did a search and found this guy on E-Bay. Thinking of giving him a try. Has some good reviews also. Check it out let me know what you think. This is what the add says "Unlock HTC HD2 Leo T-Mobile O2 3 UK Code = FAST"
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Unlock-HTC-HD...QptZUK_Phones_Software_RL?hash=item1c0e880071
just been to the shops to try unlock but they said none would be available until next 2 weeks.
Anyone with better luck
id be interested to hear from anyomne also as am about to recieve my hd2 from t-mobile on monday - any successful unlock codes, or any successful flashing of the rom to get the hd2 sim unlocked? im assuming i will recieve the phone locked to t-mobile but will update in case it arrives unlocked.
Well I have not found a solution as yet. Tried a guy on ebay but seems he's unable to unlock also. Anyone has any luck unlocking the t-mobile uk hd2 online?
Is there anybody that would be able to call T-Mobile to get me the Unlock Code for my Samsung Vibrant, if I give them my IMEI.
I had my phone unlocked and for some reason it randomly locked up again.
I would call T-mobile myself, but I am not with them and I live in Canada.
If anyone could help me that would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!!
T-Mobile gives former eligible customers free unlock codes.

Unfotunately I don't think it will work. The phone has to have been registered on the users account, meaning the user must have put their sim in the phone before, or there has to be proof that exact phone with the IMEI was purchased from T-Mobile by the account holder.
But luckily for you, if you were a T-mobile customer in the past, and you did in fact use that Vibrant on their network, they will provide you the unlock code again.
For your reference
http://support.t-mobile.com/doc/tm51885.xml
"T-Mobile will provide the SIM Unlock Code upon request to eligible former customers, provided that T-Mobile has such code or can obtain it from the manufacturer. "
Who knows though, might work, if you are willing to find someone to try it for you.
Yeah i am pretty sure the person who had the phone before wad with t mobile, so it should be fine. I just need someone who is with t mobile to call in for me since i am not with tmobile.
There was an app in the app store that'll give you the unlock code. That's how I unlocked mine. Check the market as it was a free app.

You don't need to even bother with that. Use this thread to fix the unlock. This will make it more permanent. Hopefully. It worked for me on two different devices. Cheers!
Thanks for the responses..
Yeah I unlocked my phone myself a month ago and for some reason It became locked again randomly. Dont know why... I just dont want to go through all that work again, and have it happen again... If I get the Sim Unlock code then it wont be a problem, and I can just put in the # again. When I originally tried to get the number through the SGS Unlocker it just gave me 8 zeros, so that method dident work.
The computer that I am using does not have all the drivers and crap and it is not my computer so I do not want to load everything on it.
If anyone with T-Mobile dosent mind calling for me that would be greatly appreciated.

The problem is you can't use the sim unlock code once you have gone through this process that they would send you. If you went through that process, then the code is whatever you set. If you don't remember what that number is, then you will have to do it all over again.
It is not that i do.not remember. I put in eight zeros in. But some everything was reset and it is locked again. I tried the eight zeros and it sosent work. I think i used a different nethod. I did not use the batch files. I used adb and edited the nv data. I am pretty sure if i were to get the sim unlock from t.mobile it will work. I dident choose 0000000 as a sim code it just told me to enter that in the instructions.

The problem is that number replaced the old msl. So you have no choice.
What do you mean Msl?
Msl = master subsidy lock aka unlock code
