Unlocking MyTouch Slides

Is there anyway to use root to unlock the mytouch slide, or do I have to pay one of the services to do so?

root can not get rid of the subsidy lock, you will still need the valid unlock code.

Are the services the only way to generate a valid one other than calling tmo?

That is about it. I hear t-mobile is pretty good at giving them out as long as you meet a few requirements. I went through a service to unlock both of mine as I am not and have never been a t-mobile customer.
My codes were delivered in under 2 hours and was only $10/ea... If you are interested in who I went through you can PM me and i'll tell you.

I've been a customer for 7 years, bought these phones specifically for a trip I'm leaving for tomorrow, but they tell me I have to wait 14 days. Oh well.

great and VERY fast sim unlock company is Carrierunlock.com. took less than an hour and was ten bucks. different phones cost different, this was for blackberry for a friend.

Man get a hold of another rep that's bs .. my dad bought a hd2 and as soo as we left the store we called and the rep put in the request for unlock, within 24 hrs it was unlocked. She did tell me how ever that I now have to wait 90 days for my next phone, which sucks because he exchanged the hd2 for a Slide!! Also the reason for the call wasnt unlock specific but it came up and she did it.

Hey, sorry to piggy back but I just wanted to verify something. I can just ask tmobile for the code to unlock my phone for free, or are they gonna charge me?

Its 100% free through the carrier, in your case T-Mobile.

I just used cellunlock.net for my myTouch 3G Slide. It was $20 and they got it to me fast.
I was happy, since 2-3 other websites said they could not help me or they wanted $30-50.

The only down side getting it from the carrier is it takes up to 14 days to get it from them. I just ask them when I first get my phone so when I do travel I don't have to wait for it and panic.

Its thirty in Cali...Which is good cause they T-mobile store(which is the devil) charges to much and i got to trade my touch 3g for the slide. AND for a cheaper price too.

Free but it's not always the easiest thing to get. Sometime you just have to bite your teeth and go to ebay and get a code. THere is a couple posts on here with credible places to get unlock codes if T-Mobile wont give it up. Also make sure to mention you are going out of country and need the unlock code to use other cell phone companies in said country. Also I believe it's the law that they have to give it to you so also try to mention that.

Yes, T-mobile will do it for free if you call them and ask them that you need your phone unlocked.

Call T-mo, tell them "I am going to Japan (or whatever) next week and I need my phone unlocked so i can insert a foreign sim for two weeks."
Psychoace was correct.
They might try to tell you they have an international plan but be firm and they will email you an unlock code within 48 hours. I've done this on my wing and then my g1 in previous years. no hassles.

No you no need Generate the own Unlock code,You can unlock it simply using the unlock code purchase from this online site Mobile-unlocker.com/samsung-vibrant/rs2wp9/ and Unlock Samsung Vibrant.

Cool good to know.

AT&T X10a Unlocked

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)....

Everyone is better off just flashing 2.1 global firmware. There is no fuss doing it that way. Then you've got an unlocked, de-branded phone with non-market apps enabled

flashing a new firmware won't work. I have nordic 2.1 and while my att sim works, a tmobile one doesn't. the phone is hardware locked, and that's why it need the code that's based on the IMEI and the S/N

It's even easier to get an unlock code from them if you're not a customer. Just call and ask for it.

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

just out of curiosity, have you guys unlocked your AT&T's X10a?
i'm X10a owner and have been trying hard to get a code. fortunately, a friend of mine happen to have THE connection.
you can either get your code or just ignore it.

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.

I didn't know it was SIM locked until I took it to India. I called AT&T, they check to see if it was under contract, it's not, so they unlocked it for free within 24 hours.

To enter the unlock code: Shut down your tablet and put another cell provider's SIM card in it. When you boot the tablet and swipe to unlock the screen, there will be an option to enter the unlock code.
As for a dialer, you can install one from the Play Store. I have exDialer installed on mine, so I could access the radio.
