Hi guys
I'm about to unlock my x10, is from mexico but want to use it with at&t in the US
the phone has all it's unloking attempts used (damn carrier)
what service do you recommend me to unlock it?
also if I unlock it, will I be able to use any sim and anytime? I mean putting back my original sim to the phone will it work or do i have to unlock it again?
thanks

once unlocked it will not relock itself.. no worries.. as far as unlocking solutions I mused mobile in canada but I think you should e-mail them with the IMEI and see if they have a unlock code for it. what carrier was it locked to? that would help narrow it down

Yes! i unlocked my X10 with them cuz I couldn't unlock it anywhere else. Trust me, I've tried all of the online remote unlocking services. HTCCode has the cable unlocking method, for $40, it's not cheap but it's really worthed. I recommended it to a lot of my buddies here in the forum and all of it worked. I've been using my X10 for about 3 months without any problem now hope this helps.

So it's common knowledge by now that the Rogers Xperia Play cannot be bootloader unlocked due to the sim lock on it. I recently bought one and Sim Unlocked it for use on the Fido network.
Is there anything else stopping me from using the bootloader unlock or am I safe to do it now?

*Edit* sorry i didnt read your OP well, You have to have a factory unlocked device from the start, you cannot just sim unlock a branded device and get an unlock code sorry

hi guys i hope you can help me
is there anyway to unlock x10i locked orange for free because there is no paypal in algeria
the laser post in his website a tool for unlocking for free but i dont undertand how to use it
maxrfon talk about sim unlock and bootloader and now evrything deleted
not sure how to unlock it for free, from my signature link I unlocked it
If you Google around there might be a way to get it done.. but you might have to just call up orange and get them to do it. You won't need to use paypal, but you will probably have to pay.
How about x10 mini, x10 big i bought unlocked, and I have mini to. Can I to unlock with this method ?

SETool is a hardware based tool, you need a SETool box to be able to use setool software
cost about 120 dlls

Im not sell it, just comment about it for users info.
BTW free X10 unlocking ends today, and now unlock will cost 4 logs (3dlls/log so about 12 dlls for unlock)

Chip Unlock
is it possible to unlock using one of those chips you place under your sim card? or only possible through code unlock?!
are you talking about the rebel sim card?
I don't think it supports sony ericsson xperia phones.
I want to know what the best method is for unlocking my Galaxy S4 SGH-1337 MF3 build Currently running on the airvoice network. I do NOT have an AT&T account but should I still give them a call and ask for an unlock code? or use an unlocking service? also from my understanding there is no sim unlock method for the MF3 build currently.
Thanks in advance!

If you pay full price, give them a call and they might give you the code.

First, unlocking the sim card is not related to the version of your phone.
So if you bought it from At&t with full price, some of them they will tell you to wait 90 days before asking for the unlocking code.
If you bought it from someone, ask the previous owner to call them and to ask for the unlocking code. Otherwise, use google, and try your luck.

are you talking about unlocking the phone to works with other carriers? yes you can on any version.
or unlocking the bootloader so you can use other custom roms? is yes, then you can't. only roots.

I'm talking for other carriers. and I tried the *#0011# method and the other one witht the long string of numbers I cant remember but it never goes to the menu to let me choose [1]UMTS.
free unlock method has been known to screw people's phones up. There are several warnings throughout that thread the mention it.
Just go with the options that I mentioned, or use google, such as "Auction website" they do some kind of these service I guess.
Actually, on the AT&T MDL and MDB firmwares you were able to sim unlock it through service menu:

http://gs4.wonderhowto.com/how-to/c...y-s4-so-you-can-use-another-sim-card-0148110/
MF3 blocked this, so the only way you can get your phone sim unlocked with the update is using ebay or cellunlocker but at a price.

Yeah that's what I thought the case was. Oh well, back to trying to trade my At&t S4 for the Verizon version. Swappa is such a drag.
Hello,
I am sorry to ask this again but I have an AT&T S4 that's currently stock and runing 4.4.2 and I was wondering if there is any way to unlock it for T-mobile? I tired following some of the posts on here but they seem to be old and outdated. Does anyone have any other suggestions?'
Thanks!

I haven't heard anything yet..did more digging and it seems like you have to downgrade but then it's not guaranteed that you can unlock it.. I bought an unlock code for $30..still waiting to get it so I'll let you know if it works lol

If you are an AT&T customer or a previous member you can unlock your AT&T phone by going here. It is FREE and i have done it with all my phones so far. They provide you with an unlock code and all you have to do is insert the new non-at&t sim and enter the unlock code.

Since you have the unlock code, it will be almost the same thing. All you do is insert the non-att sim card and it will ask you to enter the unlock code. Enter the code and now you have an unlocked phone.
When i pop in my t-mobile sim card, the phone does not recognize it or prompt me for a network code or anything ? anyone know of someone or a service to sim unlock the sprint variant ? Thank you
Bump
I'm also trying to figure this out, as I am not able to even connect to T-Mobiles server to trigger the unlock. All that my unlock app does is just sit there with a spinning wheel and say " connecting to server, please wait " , so if I cannot get passed that than I'm screwed cause it's gotta at least prompt me if I want to unlock permanently or temporary. Darn thing just keeps spinning like I'm blocked from even connecting. Can someone who is rooted check to see if their phone will prompt for an unlock or not? Thanks in advance!

If the T-Mobile unlock app is on the Sprint version (Which I doubt) use this site https://www.unlockbase.com/phone-unlocking-service/tmobile-device-unlock-app-official-unlock/ otherwise you might contact them and find out if they can sim unlock it another way. Or sideload the T-Mobile Unlock app and see if it works that way (I doubt this would work but you never know til you try)

If you are rooted, it can detect it and it will stay on the spinning wheel. Only way I got it to work was to restore to stock no root and it worked (It kept giving me a unlock not available until I bought the unlock service from https://www.unlockbase.com/phone-unlocking-service/tmobile-device-unlock-app-official-unlock/ )

I was thinking that it was because I was rooted , so I guess I will try and restore to an unrooted state and see if that makes a difference.
I found a guy on ebay who supposedly can unlock the Sprint V20 for $50.

is the phone paid off in full? no more monthly obligation? if not that's the reason you can't unlock. it's because you don't own the phone sprint does. NO ONE can get a device unlocked from distributor without full payment fulfillment.
