Can remove simlock from HTC Artemis and from any other HTC devices.
This service is not free.
Please send me a Private Message for details.

Say how much and give 1 free SIM unlock away to a Mod of this site to confirm it's real and you may actually get some custom.

Sorry fella, but that was for another HTC product - Ameo, do you have a proof it works for ARTEMIS ?
If you can - like you did for AMEO, give 3 free codes away, and reduce your asking price...definitely below current T-Mobile rate (£15), then you may get some biz.

It is not a biz.
All money going to XDA project.
Ok I'am offering 3 free codes.
1st - to Gajet
2nd - to AD10
3d - to MaskedMarauder
no free codes left

Send one my way then !....and how much would it be ?

OK I got tupisdin's free unlock code and I can confirm that it works 100% to remove the SIM lock.
It was a simple code you enter directly to the Artemis, no need to fight Windows to flash, He provided a fast an efficient simple service that noone else claims to be able to offer except possibly your phone network themselves.
Now tupisdin has said honestly up fron that he wishes to charge for this and make some money for himself. I will leave it for him to provide complete details, but he will accept Paypal. I will say he's not asking anything like $100 that was bounded around in the Ameo thread. I have pointed out how much imei-check charge.
SIMPLY YES THIS WORKS

If you don't mind me blagging one of the free ones, I will try on my latest version softwarte O2 Orbit. Let me know if this is OK.
I have been on here for a while and can be trusted to tell the truth if it works or not.

Isn't the O2 Orbit at least in the UK Sim Free anyway?

Both of mine certainly are.

German Orbit - simlock free.

It may well be, I have not tried. All the other phone I have ever had from O2 were though, so it may well be.

IT WORKS !!!!

THIS CODE WORKS....period ! ! !
I tried an Orange, Vodafone and O2 SIMs...they all worked fine !
And I am not screaming it cos I got a free code, but because all you do is input a code, after inserting another Carrier SIM into your phone.
I can remember sleepness nights with pof, perjan(even bricking his phone)...and all the others trying means to provide a SIM unloker for the ARTEMIS....though theirs was to be a free one.
Now to the more serious bit......tupisdin.
I can see in other threads, people make donations to XDA Dev forum, and you give them the codes, others suggesting you want $100, by Western Union sent to you.
Make it clear now, what are the options for getting this code.

What are the costs ?
I would like to get a code. Can you tell me what you need from me and also what the costs are ? Hope to hear from you soon. Thxx already.
Bommy

Tupisdin secret
I wait on cod also. There now I do not it worry. tupisdin will not it make on forum code on free - this no loss. let it will take to grave secrets.
Different gods are on forum. I believe in pof !!! Prepare he in moment foundling. and again whole fame and splendour for him. !!!
And secret tupisdin ... he be unremembered becomes!

Is there any chance of getting sim unlock cheaper than imei-check??

I would be interested if the price were right, IMEI Check at the moment is a bit excessive

20 Pounds (about 30 euro) wasn't cheap but still the cheapest solution for me! With the simlock I was unable to call

HD2 Ordered

Just had my contract renewal and placed an order for a HD2
HOPE to get it on Saturday and have the weekend to play and install my apps. Upgrading from a Diamond. I have looke dat the tweaks sticky and downloaded a few of them ready.
Any heads up for the fone?

best advice, play with it first, dont get crazy adding stuff till you are comfortable with it, and read a LOT.
Good luck for saturday delivery!

Welcome to the CLUB!...

bah, curse you O2! out of stock...meh...APPARENTLY due Monday... Frustration! lol

Make sure to have a look here for free handset unlock

Ok, after frustrating calls to O2 who finally deceided to tell me they didnt know hen they would have the HD2 in stock I cancelled and went in store and got one today! LOVE IT!
Whats the benefit of that unlocking link?

As soon as its unlocked you can , obviously, use any sim card in it...
Silly noob comments removed
Seriously suggest you take the advice to read as theres just so much stuff to try out you'll probably end up duplicating your efforts as most of the cooked ROM's will already include any of the tweaks you're likely to try and going crazy with the mods can have an adverse impact on stability. As a first port of call for a must have grab a file explorer and a back up utility (if you haven't already)...

doesnt need to be unlocked to flash roms. sim lock and rom lock aren't connected.

The benefit is that it's free and allows any sim from other providers.
Most HD2 owners need to pay around £20 for this. It may not directly benefit you at this time but it will some day.

Count the digits. the IMEI only needs to be 16 digits, but several people (myself included) have found that the hd2 displays a 17 (or 18 one person said) digit imei. KNock off the last digit and try again.

Warning? Microsoft UK support no longer issuing *live* codes.

Just a heads up; called MS UK support (18:00GMT) just now and they are not giving out any more live codes for WP7 users - instead you need to call HTC ...
Apparently they are updating the MS KB article to that affect.
It would appear that HTC want the IMEI number before going any further.
Not 100% sure if anyone else is getting this now?

Yes, there are many reports of this.
I assume however that HTC are probably just checking if the IMEI is a HD7? I doubt they are checking off every IMEI, as you could just claim you've changed your live ID, bought it from eBay? Also the codes only seem to be brand specific?
So get an IMEI and call HTC to get your code?

what about the us MS ? has anyone got any news if they are not issuing any activation code anymore (

I called the uk number (think it was home user>tech support) around 4.30pm today...got a code no problem. Might of just been lucky as the person I spoke too was alright...only asked if I had an htc (name/number/live id).
WP7 is pretty slick I have to say...really is up there with the iphone in terms of speed and looks. BUT i cant download from the marketplace...keeps saying try later. Now I get low disk space and random reboots. Any ideaS?

Might means that your micro SD is not compatible...
Try with Micro SD class 2. Try 8 Gb for start.
Once you entered your Live ID wait for the end of syncronisation and reboot!
Juste open Marketplace with WIFI
Should be perfect Running WP7 with 16Gb Micro SD card. Perfect just experiencing some freeze.
Take your time the result is great.
Keep the code

Just tried the UK number a bit ago and it seems you can only do it during office hours, so I couldn't even ask.
Tried the US number and after loads of mucking around I got told they couldn't help as they can only deal with US customers. Bah.
But, at the moment whilst I love the clean fresh look of WP7 it looks like it could get frustrating pretty quick since there's hardly any settings that look accessible. Probably just because I'm new to it and don't know how to use it to be fair.
Not sure now whether to wait til tomorrow and try to activate it, or to just stick nandroid back on. Both would be nice but we won't go there.....

I got my code from the US today about an hour ago. Actually, I got 2 just in case.

Are you in the US though mate?
Wish I could get one for mine but I've tried US and UK numbers now and failed. I've been playing a bit more with 7 and I really like it.
If anyone was able to get a code for me I'd be hella grateful. What info do you have to give to MS though about your live account??

Guys, just a hint, if you call the US support, which you can do via Skype for free anywhere in the world, at least don't tell them you are from the UK or elsewhere...Obviously they are US support to help people from the US, therefore, you guys need to be a little bit creative in what you tell them...

Yes, but then , when they ask you for your phone number, what to saY? ( because i dont have US phone number )

You are already lying to them about having an HD7... might as well tell them a bogus US number. As a disclaimer, i do not suggest nor condone any of this, just common sense

Can some 1 provide some example for bogus us phone number ?

I figured there's no point lying about where I was phoning from since presumably like in most offices, their phone or monitor would be displaying the number you're dialling from!

OK. I just phoned and was asked for my IMEI number. I actually gave them my HD2 number, and they accepted it!
Scared me, but i now have a nice shiny activation code.
P.S Im from the UK but i think they sent me to the US.

dont think it works any more though.. chevron no longer unlocking..

oops, never mind

german support works perfect. i told them i bought a hd7 and there was no activation code number with it. got it within 5minutes

Somebody on T-Mobile w/ Vibrant for 90 days want to call for me?

So I'm on T-Mobile and everytime I call, they give me a total BS code and it doesn't unlock ANYTHING =/
Can someone give it a try for me? I can provide you with the EMEI.
Please and thanks!

Sorry to tell you this, tmo will not give out the code unless the phone have been used on the account for 90 days for the person that is calling in.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App

I saw many people doing it before, as long as they have a Vibrant that's 90 days or older, T-Mobile will give them the code.

And have we tried the SGS_unlock program from the market yet ?
Why yes, it does work, thank you for asking.

Actually, it doesn't work for me. I also tried the PC program. All failed.
I actually even called T-Mobile as stated in my first post, but they gave me a bunch of BS codes.
Last option.

There is two unlock programs from the market. Only the Galaxy S unlock by Helroz worked for me and not the SGS unlock.

Dattack what ROM are you running?

I am using the Bionix v1.2 right now. I have using a telcel sim when I go to baja mexico and the unlocking by Helroz has always worked for me. I think there is an xda thread on the unlocking started by helroz. good luck.

Not sure how they did it back then, but when I called in to unlock a phone that I have not used, they wouldn't give me the unlock code because I didn't use it with my number for 90 days. Maybe a nice rep might hook it up, but from my experience they will give you the same bs with their 90 day policy.

Try troubleshooting the unlock methods in their respective threads. The unlock java program worked for me. There are several ways to do it, in all likelihood one should work.
Avoid user error.

maybe you did something wrong on your phone that's why the unlock code won't work for you. Yes that happened to me but the method posted here worked for me.

Haha, it's ok. I got it fixed. I used the one by Heroz and it worked sooo finne

Go to one of the stores and call them for the unlock code from there. Then, if it doesn't work you can get the store manager to intervene or better yet get them to exchange the phone.

lol the store manger can't do anything about a subsidy unlock. Beyond that, OP seems to be ignorant about unlocking the phone, instead blaming faulty codes on someone else.
When an official subsidy is filed, it goes to an unlock team who contacts the manufacturer, and is specific to the IMEI of the device. Chances are, if the OPs code didn't work, they weren't following instructions on entering it in, or never provided accurate info for the unlock.

Wow I like how you just called me ignorant.
I've provided T-Mo the same IMEI 3 times, yes, I quadruple checked it each time. Always got the same unlock code back. How is that MY fault?

I believe that since it's a demo unit you're not going to be able to use it. Except for wifi and bluetooth of course.
An IMEI is kinda important.
Out of curiosity... where did you get this?

Because if it was sold to you from someone then a reward might be available for the apprehension of the person that had stolen it and you would have valuable information.
Also, it is against forum rules to assist anyone in unlocking or tampering with an IMEI an any way especially for a stolen device. Since it appears to be that way, you're on your own. So good luck!

Certain stores sell these out if it's excessively supplied by Samsung. It's supplied by samsung on an entirely free no-agreement basis, since they are not expected to survive after the device reaches EOL (LED Burn-in, Customer Damages.. etc).
So the OP may not have necessarily stolen it, but may have obtained it in a clearance sale.
And of course, No. There is no reward involved as the device itself is designed without an IMEI so that the general public may not get to use it.

As all ready posted if it's a demo unit then basically all you have and will have is a wifi tablet. There is no IMEI number for the device and any attempt to use a different one is illegal. Really hope you weren't ripped off with it but as IMEI changing is illegal I will have to close the thread
