Ordered an unlock code but won't work - HD2 General

Hi,
I just received from a friend and HTC HD2 locked on Orange (a french operator).
I immediatly installed the HSPL then the original ROM, everything went fine.
Now when i insert my SIM, after typing the code, the phone ask me for an unlock code.
So i ordered one for 15€ on a french site and received it 2 days later.
The big problem is that the phone says "Invalid code".
Do you have any idea which explains this failure?
(Excuse my english).
Thanks a lot for your answers.

I used one of the ones on Ebay £7.20 worked ok. I think that you are safer for this sort of thing on Ebay because you can see how reliable they are from the feedback.
Infact I have used Ebay 3 times now for unlock codes and all where ok.

Are you able to input all the numbers provided by your unlocker?
My HD2 did only accepted 8 characters for unlock and the unlock code I received was 10 digits. I have omit first two numbers in order for unlock to work.

Yes i'm able to insert the 8 digits the site sent me.

It's ok. I called the client support and they gave me a correct unlock code. Everything is ok now.

Got my Wing, need help. (Unlocking Probelms Too...IMEI Question) *BOTTOM POST*

The guy who I got it from had Unlocked in the title. But when I put my Rogers SIM card in it says Network is locked. Please input unlock code.
Any cheap fast ways of getting rid of this? Thanks!
----------------------------------
UPDATE:
OK. So I tryed an unlocker from ebay twice (I didnt notice that the default email for my paypal account was an old invalid email of mine, but they should get a failure to deliver notice and refund my money, or so I hope) and I got a message back that read:
Hello - This is an automated message from NewMobileFreedom.com to let you know your unlock code is now available on our online tracking system.
Model: Wing
Code: NOT FOUND
Provider: T-Mobile
They say if they cant unlock it they will refund my money back. Does this mean no one can unlock me phone???
What should I do? Has anyone got a better way of getting this phone unlocked??? Thanks!
EDIT: I don't know if it matters, but the IMEI on the box is a bit different than the one from the phone (*#06#) the box has 15 digits and the phone show two extra digits - so 17 in total. Should I have given the 17 digit on???

i don't know if that will work because he doesn't have t-mobile ( and they aren't available in canada ) that's why he's trying to unlock the phone so he can use Roger's Wireless.
I'm using their web chat right now trying to get it from them... this could take a while. Where's Mitnick when you need him?
*Update* I got shutdown.
you could always purchase the unlock...
or is that out of the question.
No, I just did that. I'll get the code in the next day or two...

Unlocking issue

I search and did not find this issue raised so if it does exist and I missed it, forgive me. Assuming it is not there, any help is greatly appreciated
T-Mobile just sent me a replacement Wing for the one that crapped out on me. I had unlocked the other unit however the new unit is locked.
When I turn the unit on I get the message: "Network is locked. Please input unlock code." which is standard when I use a non TM sim.
I paid to get an IMEI unlock code online (which I did previously with no issues) and got the code today. When I enter the code (some 15-20 digits) the Wing only allows a max of 8 digits in the field and will not unlock.
When I did this with the older Wing, it was some long code that worked just fine. I asked the unlocker and they are not sure why it is only accepting 8 digits.
Anyone know what this is about and how to work around it? TM will not give me an unlock code as they say "they do not do this for pre-pay customers"
Thanks in advance for any advice.
Tmo has an unlock team/sim team. Based on the east coast. They are swamped but if you can get in touch with them they will usually email you the codes for overseas travel after two days. Dont know the number.
Tell them you are going out of the country.

Unlocking X10 Question

A friend of mine has an x10 by vodafone. He recently bought it from their store. He also bought a unlockcode by vodafone (legal). So good, so far!
BUT - when he entered another simcard in the phone to start the unlockprocedure - he put in the pincode instead of the unlockcode. (he is not that technical). After 5 times of trying the phone is now locked for unlocking. One says the phone has now to be unlocked by software meyhod and can not be unlocked by code anymore.
Softwaremethod is not available. Can someone give me any advise how to handle to get the option back to put in the unlockcode again?!
flashing? anything else?
Take it back to the store and get them to do it, if they can't use a simple unlock code then I can't see them being any good with a software method.
sounds like its been accidentally locked you need a PUK key to unlock it ....(if its not stolen..not saying it is!) then the service provider should supply this PUK override code to allow you to change it to a more easiky remembered code

It sucks to see people having problems with unlocking their phones...but wait! here's you're lucky day Follow this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731240&page=4 and go to post #38 and you'll find the answer. I was one of them who got the phone for a week, tried almost all of the online remote unlocking services and didn't work, bought the manufacturer's code and entered it too many times that the phone counter-blocked itself. Anyway...long story short, I was able to unlock my phone with HTCCode.com. I don't have anything to do with their website, but they were the only place that could unlock my phone, and trust me I had three other buddies from this forum that had the same problem but unlocked the phone with them. If you have any problems, pm and I'll try to help. You should read the thread I sent you first and you'll understand, but if you can't wait, click on the link on post #38 and talk to HTCCode directly. They are friendly and very helpful. Good luck buddy, give me feedback too

ulock t-moblie hd2 by some web sites?

i just saw a lot websites that unlock tmob hd2 for 30-40$. can we really trust them. i mean does the unlock code which they send work well and stabile. and which one you know we can trust?
thanks...
you can request the lock code from tmobile but you also need a sim card from other carrier or the one you going to use. once you place the sim card(can be from att) a screen appears to enter the lock code. thats all.
actually it's my friend's phone and he maybe called t-mobile 10 times. they send a unlock code but it didn't work. he called them many time again but they still didn't send anything... that's why i'm looking for a web site i can trust...

If he's a legitimate T-Mobile customer, they're required by law now to provide him with a working unlock code upon request. It sometimes takes them a little while to send it, what did they tell him when he told them the first one didn't work?
i just found htc-unlocker.org they are really fast and the code worked perfect. i just paid 19.99$. but be carefull if you want to pay by paypal because paypal send money 2-3 days late so they send you code when they receive money... i got a problem about it but by e-mail we solved the problem...
unlock code

Actually, you can make that code entry window pop up even without another carrier's SIM, just run "SIMlock.exe" from your windows folder.

unlock LG E900 Optimus 7

Hi, are you any idea to unlock my lg e900 optimus 7 buy in french with orange.
Orange need 80€ to said me the code.
Another possibility?
Wait 6 months if you can and call orange they will do it for free.
I unlock my LG on this site
You can find in google, try to search unlockallcellular.
I got an unlock code, but no instructions on how to use it. When I put a foreign SIM card in, it says "enter PIN". The code doesn't work here. It seems I have to enter a PIN before I can enter the unlock code, or something like that.
Confusing, usually putting another carrier's SIM card will prompt directly for the unlock code.
I just unlocked mine yesterday. You need to purchase an SP Unlock (not a sim unlock). I tried 3 different unlock types until I finally got the right one (the SP unlock).

The Enter PIN screen IS where you enter the SP unlock. Make sure you're purchasing the right unlock code. Most places will send you a SIM Unlock code when in fact what you need is a SP (Service Provider) Unlock code.
Can some of you put link so safe places to unlock LG Optimus 7?
Thanks!

Great! Thanks!
In Italy this Phone is sold by Vodafone but isn't locked for SP or SIM.
The only lock is present in MMS settings, but using the MFG application now i'have set H3G network settings and I'm receiving MMS.

Nop... I'm still collecting info about the phones since i haven't bought it yet... Today i played with the Omnia 7 and next i will play with HD7, Mozart and Optimus 7. I really liked the Omnia 7 and the screen is awesome, but LG have other advantages like much more apps available on LG market and we already know they are commited to adding even more! AS soons as i try them all i will choose the one
if your LG Optimus™ 7 need any of these codes
NCKCODE
NSCODE
SPCODE
CPCODE
SIMCODE
Then it can b find @theunlock
Grabbed my unlock from these guys, it took 2 hours and worked first try! Says for Telus, but I am sure they can do it for any carrier (and would refund if they couldn't, seems like a decent group for sure).
And yes, the "Enter PIN" is where you put in the unlock code, which is all numbers and quite long.
Edit: Well I can't post links. The eBay user is mobilexpresscanada where I got it from.

Did you get it from their Ebay page? I got the unlock for $25 for my Optimus 7 from these guys, off their Ebay page, while they charge $40 on their site. Pretty good, and very fast indeed.
