Does anyone know what I have to do to get my Htc HD2 t-mobile to work oversea such as Thailand? I'm going over there for 2months and when I leave, the phone will be staying there with my brother to keep. Contract will end when I get back so HTC G2 here i come. Sorry I'm a noobie that just starting to like cell phone and gadgets. Please Help!
Put in a request for a SIM unlock code from your carrier (T-Mobile) and they should send one out to for free via email after a few weeks.
After obtaining the code, insert a different card other than T-Mobiles SIM and input the code.

Ok so here's a question.
I have a Rooted with Indigo Bean Legend on the Bell Network.
If I want to use that phone on the FIDO network, I put in my sim card and it asks for a password.
.I thought if it was rooted, then it was automatically "unlocked " to different carriers. I can buy a password and am willing to unlock it myself, but is that what I need to do, and will that mess up any of the rooting that's done?
Rooting doesn't unlock the phone. So yeah you'll have to use an unlock code.

Using an unlock code will permanently unlock the phone to be used on any carrier. Rooting does not unlock the phone.

I doubt it will mess with your rooting, I used cellunlock.net along with coupon code crackb50 to get my unlock code, cost me $10 (down from $20) but unfortunately, they increased it to $30, so now after 50% off, it's $15.
Hi guys, I dunno if this is the right forum for this, but need to unlock my G1/Dream so I can use my ATT Sim Card in it.
- I've tried T-Mobile, but they told me some BS that I had to have an account with them for like 60 days before they could do something like that for me, WTF.
- I really don't wanna pay to do it, b/c stores here are charging like $35 bucks!
I have the IMEI #, so if anybody can help me, I would really appreicate it!

I need to unlock my g1 too. I bought mine off ebay not thinking to ask the person to unlock it before shipping it to me
^Well, after searching the forums, there is a sticky here telling how you can do it...But calling T-Mobile isn't working for me.
If anybody here has a T-Mobile acct., please help!

Search on ebay for "G1 unlock code" and you'll get dozens of hits. I've purchased several codes from a seller called swiftsales714 and have always been satisfied.
^Thanks for the info, I'll check this out...

I am having a few weeks holiday in The U.S and am wondering what's the best way I can carry on using my atrix?
The call/roaming charges from my carrier (T Mobile UK) are really high so I won't be able to use my normal sim much and my phone is also still locked to T Mobile.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Purchase an unlock code online for ten or twenty bucks then use a prepaid Sim card

you can even just try a local AT&T store when you are stateside, or just anywhere online before
Simple mobile or h2o wireless

not yet that I know of.
there's are apps that allow unlocking for the SII and III (and others) but I'm not sure it works on the S4 yet, we'll just have to wait and see
Thanks for taking your time to reply.

hi folks,
I was wondering if I could get clarified with noob questions for carrier locked devices.
I'm in contract with att on HTC one right now. I'm planning to buy a sprint/ Verizon/ tmobile/att LG g2 (cheaper). Will it be possible to unlock any of the above carriers and use it for my current att contract? Also let me know if I can buy a device with bad esn on other networks.
