I've got a Motorola Flipout locked to Orange UK. I tried everything to get it unlocked but without success. I tried several unlock code services but their codes all didn't work. Then I bought a X-SIM IV unlock sim-card which is placed between the sim-card and the phone. The phone then didn't ask for an unlock code but I could not register anymore into the network.
Is there any other solution to unlock the phone? Maybe there is a software solution like for the Samsung Galaxy S?

I searched around some for you, and all I found was sites where you'd have to pay about $10 to get a code... not sure if there is any other way right now
I've tried two companies who've both given me the same unlock codes which don't work!! not good! Will report back if I find a solution.

Glad you posted this, I'm thinking about getting the flipout from orange uk but I want to use my t mobile sim. What have orange said about an unlock code for it?
Orange wants you to be a customer for at least 3 month to get an unlock code from them (see help.orange.co.uk/orangeuk/support/personal/474187).

Wow. 3 months is a long wait. I might have to consider buying a sim free handset.
The unlock code companies on the internet usually get a new database on a regular basis (not sure how regular) to accommodate new handsets it could be worth emailing them to see when a working code may be available.

i need to get this unlocked just bought one from orange they gave me £30 discount as i am a payandgo customer already £149,99 with the topup all in.
Ive tried two methods
1) requesting codes (two of) from World-unlock.net
2) taking it to a shop in Coventry (UK)
Neither have worked
Still looking around
has anyone tried direct motorola codes?
Has anyone tried this one yet http://www.foneszone.co.uk/unlock_form/Motorola/Flipout.php
please if you have already tried then i wont bother.
Yes, foneszone.co.uk was the first I tried but the code they sent didn't work.

Snap they just sent me a email saying that they couldnt even find the code so getting a refund. orange are useless they wanted me to wait three months before i can unlock even thogh i have been a loyail customer for many years and the sales person was a stuborn .anker. oh well the search goes on for a working unlock.
Just seen this on ebay gonna give it a try got nothing to loose £2.99
MOD EDIT: Ebay Links
UPDATE this could be the unlocking code we have been looking for still waiting for code but it looks promising and it is a new item on ebay for the flipout they know there is a demand for this phone to be unlocked its cheap enough i will report back as to if it works as soon as i recieve the unlock code.

Hi there,
.. wondering if the ebay link ( unlock solution) you followed worked for your Flipout?
I actually got an ismart sim and carefully filed the chip down to slip into the sim slot but still too big to fit inthere
Can you kindly PM me the ebay link as I cannot follow it from your posting.
Many thanks
firsy sorry mods for posting ebay link should of known better and second it doesnt work motorola dont have the updated codes yet they will let me know when they do and i will let people know here so at the moment there is no way to unlock still.
spotted this unlock solution on the bay Item number: 230552565930

I am searching for a method to unlock the x10 but i can cat the right method.
For the unbrand method ( by flash another firmware ) i cant find the dutch rom.
At the other program i must by credits over a paypall acount but i dont have paypall and the unlock must be done as soon as possible.
So what is the best and the fastest way to unlock the x10i branded from HI in holland?
( sorry for my bad english but as you can see i am from holland )
You can unbrand it.
Unbranded dutch rom can be found here
But you should know that unbranding your device doesn't unlock it. So you still won't be able to use non-Hi/KPN sim-cards.
If you do want to unlock you can buy the unlock code from Hi, but that'll cost you €68,- i believe.
I used unlocking.com and paid £19.99 and got my unlock code in approx 24hrs and it worked fine...

I thought unbranding remove the simlock
I cannot contact HI about it becouse i dont have a HI number. I chance the x10 fore my vivaz pro and not the numbers.
The only way to unlock the x10 is to order a unlock code and wait for a couple of days?

After a week waiting for unlocking.com to get my unlock code, I got nervous and went to htccode.com for it. Surprisingly, this guy did it in 10 minutes, so I really recommend the service in there. A bit pricey (40$), but definitely worth it. Nice support, and really fast. Comparing it to a week of waiting and asking to support service what the hell was going on, it's definitely worth the price.
Regards!
I am trying to get unlock code for my new X10a (Rogers). I tried from ebay and again yesterday from http://www.cellunlocker.net/. Both took about a day each and sent message saying there is no unlock code for my IMEI. Do newer Roger phones take time to get unlock code? I am now worried. The phone is brand new and I opened it. It's clearly Rogers branded.

I was able to unlock my Rogers phone for $15 or so. I did it a month ago, so the fix is out there.

From which place?
My xperia x10 was locked to orange. I did a lot of research and like so many ppl i placed an order at unlocking com. After waiting for 8-10 days, they replied that the code couldnt be found. Out of options i tried htccode To be true i was a bit afraid by reading lot of bad stuff about htccode. But in the end it worked pretty well. During the whole process i was in touch with the support rep and effectively it took only 5-10 mins to complete the process. I know the price is a bit high 40USD but in my opinion it is worth spending.
PS: The views expressed in this post are of author's only. I am not advertising htccode neither do i have any affiliation with them.

I am not willing to spend over $10 . Anway, the Locked Rogers X10a I have right now is in Black and I really don't like it as much as I like my white X10i. So, ordered an unlocked White X10a this time and will sell my black X10a if I can't get it unlocked in a week or so. If I can get it to unlock I might just use it and give the white X10a to my wife.
i have tried many places and none of them were able to provide unlock code for AT&T's X10a. but my last hope (the code) came in today and unlocked my X10a right away. am i the first one who has unlocked AT&T's version by code instead of cable?
edit: 12/18/2010
hi, guys
in order to get unlock code i need correct info to be filled out as a note/message, when you make payment at paypal.
please do not PM me with any info, it is very easy to lost track of PMs you are welcome to notify me about your donation though.
1. IMEI and S/N (serial number) under your battery
2. exact model and which network your phone is locked to
3. your XDA ID (to notify you when your code is ready)
4. i can only send code to paypal verified email address, the one when you register/make payment with paypal.
please note, it takes 7-10 days to get code.
thanks
Can you provide more info and/or explain more, thanks.

X10 Unlock
From my side.. it's three weeks that I'm trying to unlock this damn piece of cell phone, but no way.
At first I was quite confident wit cellunlockers.net, but after 10 days they refund my money saying -no way-.
Then I tried mobileincanada.com who where really very fast, they refunded my money after only 40 minutes
Last try with unlocking.com, after 10 days they were still looking for excuses, they did not find any code (on their web site they promise a next day solution!) so I asked for a refund, that they did not want to give me !!!
I opened a debate on paypal and after a couple of days I had my money back, but the cell phone is still locked..
So if anyone has a solution, please help ! AT&T supplies the unlock sequence (for free) only after 90 days from the purchase....
I too am having no luck with my X10 from AT&T so if theres not development I am going to go ahead and sell the phone....
Update: Got it Unlocked from Cellunlocker.net (Cable method)....

There is a 90 day waiting period. And even then, they can use the exclusivity clause and not give you the lock code.

Agreed. I have tried to get the unlock code for my AT&T X10a for 2 months with no success. Gave Lancez my S/N and IMEI and 10 days later received my unlock code as a PM. Inserted a different SIM card in my phone, entered the code and VOLA..! The phone was network unlocked! No pain, no hassle.
Hi all
Just bought a second hand Xperia Play locked on Orange and want to unlock it to get it on Tesco Mobile.
The cheapest I've found so far is £27! Is there anything any better than that anyone's come across?
Take it into an orange shop, they will unlock it for you for lyk 10 - 15 quid

A bit offtopic here: If the carrier unlocks your phone, will you be able to enter fastboot mode ? Or does it still count as "SIM locked" ?

No dice - I tried calling Orange but they wouldn't unlock it as it hasn't been in service for 3 months.
They also told me to try a local phone unlocking shop! I tried two - they were both £35-40, and said it would take a couple of weeks to turn around. One of them also said the unlocking database/tool hadn't been released yet.
Anyone come across a better UK alternative?
mobile_cellution on Ebay is the one to beat at £27.99...

I'm also from the UK and trying to get mine unlocked, not much luck so far though
Main reason I always phones handset only. I move house often so I don't want to sign on a contract when I won't necessary get a signal. And after my problems with three I just learned to say no.
Yep same problem here. Probably going to use these guys http://www.somobile.co.uk/sony+ericsson/xperia+play/ but it's so damn expensive
Hi all
Just to let you know I used cellunlocker.net (a US site) with Paypal - it cost about £24. Their communication isn't great - you need to give them your Serial no, not just the IMEI, and the code and instructions they gave me were a bit garbled, but it worked out and my phone is unlocked! Good luck!

hi developers i am quite new to this site, the reason i join this i want to get the unlock code for my at&t motorola atrix 4g handset so that i can use different sim carriers,i have searched the whole threads still there is not a solution of the problem.Also i have visited different phone threads like htc sensation http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1232107.Cant this problem be resolved like this,give some suggestion guys.U people are the best i hope someone can come up with a good idea for this problem.Also i have used some other site where they provide unlock code but they give same answers that my code cant be found.Plz developer give a look on this problem.
Hello,
I don't think there is any other way to unlock the atrix besides buying an unlock code. Unlock codes are fairly cheap on ebay, where I got mine. These are the guys that I used http://www.ebay.ca/itm/UNLOCK-CODE-...742?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2eb89f6246 .
hope that this helps!
hey i know about the site giving unlock codes ,i have tried cellunlock.net site but they said they cant get me the unlock code so i am confused is it worth trying on other site as i heart cellunlock.net is quite best in its work.Give me a suggestion should i try this on other site.They give this message like this
Hi
We checked the IMEI you provided again and the code is not available for that phone. If you have another phone you would like to unlock, email us the IMEI/Provider and we will try to get the code for that phone.
If not please reply to this email with "REFUND" in the email subject and we will issue refund.
What should i do?
If the phone is on AT&T, call them.
They give out the unlock codes for free as long as your account is in good standing.
The easiest way is to use their online chat support.

i know about this but my AT&T account is less than 1 year so they wont give me,also it is not in good standing too

I've been with AT&T for over five years in good standing and they wouldn't give me the code either. Their excuse was that Motorola wouldn't release the codes.
I ended up unlocking mine through cellularunlock. Then went to wwwDOTpsouza4.com/bionic/#root to root.

yeh i have given my order for the unlock code to cellunlocker.net ,on the site u jst have to put imei no and see that ur phone is available in their database.Also they say on there FAQ that if the code is not found on the AT&T database than there r other options to get the code directly from the manufacture,as i put my imei no on the site they say that the code is there in there database,but i dont think they wll be able to provide me through AT&t .I am waiting for there reply if they say they cant get me the code through AT&T i wll go to the manufacture method.Hope my code come this time.
I am skeptical about unlock codes. At first I bought one on ebay it did not work. Then I got one from at&t , it did not work either. I had at&t sim inside while unlocking. I think I blocked the unlock feature by trying too many times.
YES it is possible to enter an unlock code with at&t sim inside if you enter special service code first which bring the unlock menu.
Any thoughts?

obviously it's not if you used this method and none of your codes worked.
This may have changed, but the guy at the at&t store told me a few months ago that once your phone is over six months old you can just call at&t and they will give you the code.

Cheap unlock
In case you are interested, i got my unlock code for an At&t Atrix last week from unlock_fusion at e-bay. it worked perfect and was just $2.35.
They where quick too, bougt it arround midnight EST, and got it in less than an hour!
Hi,
I have bought a used AT&T and bought a SIM unlock code from ebay from a seller with thousands of sells and 99.9% good rating.
The problem is that the code does not work. When I try to use it I just receive a message "Network Unlock Request Unsuccessful"?
Is there any solution for this or I have nothing to do and the device cannot be unlocked?
Thank you.

Contact seller because
1) you miss typed imei
2) he miss typed it
3) he gave you wrong code
After 5 tries you are stuck and can not unlock

I have checked that the IMEI which he based the unlock code on and it was correct. I am afraid that the guy which sold me the phone tried to unlock it too many times before selling the the phone. Is there any way to confirm it or override the lock and use the code successfully?

Anyone actually had this happen? I've heard rumors of a hardlock, but I've never seen an actual case. If someone has, was there some kind of message that appeared to indicate the hardlock?
well I have the same issue. Bought the phone through ebay, and after 7 days finally came to Croatia and I was so happy cause it doesn't sell in Europe. Then I had to input sim network unlock code which I didn't have, thought it was sim unlock code so after trying couple of times I guess I locked it. I bought the cone over ebay again for 2.30$ (so cheap) from unlock_fusion seller and they sent it to me in 5minutes! Of course the code didn't work, they refunded the money and I was stuck!!!
Now I gave it to service guys and they said that they will do it for 200kn - cca 40$. Now I'm waiting for feedback and if they do make it I will tell you how they did it.
Hope it will be ok because otherwise I have a 300$ toy which does not work.

i heard that if you leave the phone to sit on the "input sim unlock code" screen for a little while, it will reset back and you can put a code in.

i heard that if you leave the phone to sit on the "input sim unlock code" screen for a little while, it will reset back and you can put a code in.

I also heard that it can take up to 8h with that screen on, I left mine during all night but did no good, but the service guy told me that motorola phone counter counts only when the screen is active (there is light on).

Anyone actually had this happen? I've heard rumors of a hardlock, but I've never seen an actual case. If someone has, was there some kind of message that appeared to indicate the hardlock?

service guy tells me that it seems to be hardlock, if it is there was no special message which from you could see it!
RESOLVED!
I fixed my Atrix SIM unlock issue!
Definitely no hard lock. The previous owner tried the unlock code at least 20 times, I tried it another 10. But after flashing the radio through a couple of versions, I was able to get it to finally accept that same code! Wahoo!

I'm still waiting for the service guy to call me and tells if he made it. I forwarded your link to him so just maybe......
