[Q] Orange sim unlock - Xperia Arc General

Hi all, is there anyone who successfully unlocked ? If any, could you please tell me the details of how could you unlock the arc sim lock? As I v just brought a branded orange xperia arc from Ebay.

I unlocked mine last week with a code from cellunlocker.net - it took them about 5 days to get the code, but it worked with out problem. I was starting to get sceptical it wasn't going to turn up, but I emailed the support dept. and the code appeared in my inbox about 10 minutes later.
They did initially ask for some other information including the serial number of the phone as they said they would need to get the codes direct from SE.

Same here, I used cellunlocker. Took 5 days for them to get the code from Sony Ericsson but worked a treat.

Is there a way to unsimlock HTC HD2 ?

Hi,
As I said in the title, I would like to unsimlock my HTC HD2 (Orange France).
Can someone tell me where I can do that ?
Thanks
The ONLY public or disclosed way at the moment is by code..There are several posts in this forum regarding "unlock via IMEI", also there are many people advertising on $bay.
Working codes will cost around £15 - £20 (they are £10 wholesale so don't buy a code from $bay that costs £4-99).. Codes are getting turned around in less than a couple of hours now.
i was wondering if olipro is working on a sim unlock or all in one unlock like what he did in the past with other htc phones.
not sure for olipro ... seems very busy.
I've ordered my unlock code here : http://www.unlock-now.com
I will let you know if it works well.
I have some news from http://www.unlock-now.com they didn't find my unsimlock code.
But the service is great because they send me a refund.
Have to try another unsimlock service ...
I tried UnlockItNow.com they came back in 2 days with an email offering a refund or for the same price I'd already paid they could post me an unlock cable? but it will be 7 to 10 days via post? not sure to wait the 7 to 10 days for the cable or get refund and try elsewhere? what would this cable be?
I'm now trying : http://www.htcsimunlock.com
No code at this time.

I'm not sure what is this cable, but I think that it will not help you to unsimlock your phone.
So I get a refund from http://www.htcsimunlock.com since there not able to give me the unlock code too...
Now trying : http://www.unlockallcellular.com ...
http://www.unlockallcellular.com works great !!
I recommend this one !
Be careful to choose HTC HD2 T8585.
unlock sim hd2
Hi
You had try?They give a valid code for HD 2?
http://www.unlockallcellular.com/unlock-code-p-46008.html
thanks for the link, i sent mi IMEI and paid by paypal yesterday night, i received the code this morning for 11,95$ as orange asked me like 80 $.
my HTC HD2 was locked by orange FRA, and now it's unlocked with the code they sent to me.
chose the HTC HD2 T8585, wait for the code, then enter another simcard from new provider, enter the pin code of the simcard then it asks to enter the unlock code, and use the one unlockallcellular.com sent to you.
it works 100%, no problem.

HTC HD2 and HTC HD2 T8585 are not exactly the same mobile phone (HTC HD2 is may be the new one that is sold only in US actually)
It works great for HTC HD2 T8585 !

they dont do t-mobile (uk)
I've got my (2nd) Hd2 locked by t-mo uk , Unlocked.. by phoning t-mo uk and asking them to remove simlock.. cost 15quid, and a 10minute conversation to the carribean explaining to them that no I didn't want a puk code.
When I say unlocked.. I'm waiting for a letter to be sent out with the code on it.. (edit: It arrived 10days later and worked fine.)
I'm using my t-mo sim in my Htc branded Hd2 and have given my t-mo branded Hd2 to my dad to use on his o2 sim.

It was very fast, I receive my unlock code in 1 week day (paid monday 4PM, code received tuesday 8PM), Paris time.
I've make some research over the internet, so i found one program but cannot test it until tonight. I'm so curious if it's working! If someone is interested search for MXKEY HTC UNLOKER UPDATE V1.2 and please give a feedback if it's working or not!
Have a good day all!

You need a hardware dongle to use that software so unless you have one then no it does not work.

i need help !! unlock dell streak

hey guys, anyone got any idea on this. after i upgrade to official froyo 2.2 my phone become locked. how to unlock it =.= please help
i'm assuming it was unlocked before?
Have you tried using the same unlock code you used to unlock it?
or if you bought it unlocked i'd say email/call dell.
If you were hsing a rebel sim to unlock thats more than likely the reason.
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
anyway to unlock the phone with other sim unlocker?
cheers
If your locked to O2 like I was then fill in their online support form and ask for the unlock code while giving them your Imei. If they come back to you saying no they can't, just reply insisting they can as they did it for others as reported on Modaco forum. It took me 5 reply emails before they caved in and gave it to me

I emailed trisha, misha, victoria, kritika, emma
one of whome said that as they were an 'exclusive supplier' they couldn't help i emailed them back saying that they were not as tesco, orange and vodafone all sell it.
Sagar's the guy you want to reach. He seems to be the one who gives the unlock codes without hesitation.
you have to downgrade to v2.1 or v1.6 and use v1.2 rebel simcard II
or can use postal unlocking service

For all those who can't get a free unlock code from O2

hi all,
It seems like there are a few of you that cannot get free code from O2. I have not tried this option, but got an email from Rebel Sim today. Check it out:
http://dellstreakunlock.com/dell-streak-remote-unlock-code-reader-software.html
It seems like you can get your code from this software.
Like I've said, I have not tried it yet, but for those of you are desperate enough, you can give it a go and then reply us how you go with it.
cheers
I think you should pay for it first and tell the rest of us if it works
Welcome
Unfortunately, a colleague is right, since it is a paid service. A friend took this sim-lock even though it took him about four hours of fun. Of course you can pay extra for help in removing it.
Sorry for my bad english

lol....mine is already unlocked by O2....just trying to tell those who can't get the codes from O2 some extra options
I filled out a form online (o2 website, a link found in modaco) on Sunday and i got the unlock code on Monday morning, within 24 hours.
Very very impressed. worth a try and try again until you get it.
I just could not give them the phone number from the O2 network which has been used before because I bought it on the internet so sure a method will not work. They just need to secure a number that the phone was not stolen. I just bought a license from them because I got bored rebelsim II and wants to have Froyo and confirm that everything works in addition to promoting the cost is 19.99 pounds. I recommend
Got my code on eBay
I tried Rebel software and it sucks. Had to mess with ROM, which is not user friendly unless you know what you are doing. I looked at some unlocking websites and didn't find anything until I went to eBay. Got my code there for $74 and had it 2 days later in my email.
I used the rebel service and it worked! everything ok!
I submitted the web form last night and had my unlock code emailed by o2 at lunchtime today! I honestly thought it wouldn't be thst easy.
I nearly bought the software and licence from rebel sim people ... Glad I didn't now. If you got an o2 locked streak then use the web form

[Q] Bought unlock code for dell venue pro several times but failed

I have one T-Mobile version 8G dell venue pro for 3 weeks (from ebay), but need unlock code to use it in other network. I tried to ask code from dell unlock request code group, but they said cannot provide it since it's a retail version. So I placed order from one ebay seller and then another, but both couldn't get code for me. Then I submitted order in unlockallcellular.com, but they said so after 2 days.
Can anyone help me out of this problem? Where can buy an unlock code by searching in direct DB or cauculating method or software method LIKE fastgsm.com(they said they can only cauculate Samsung Focus). Thank you sooooooo much.

If dell doesn´t provide the unlock key I think you need to take a contract with T-mobile.
Or wait 2 days.

T-mobile kick the bal to Dell.
Anyone can help me?
I assume you want a carrier unlock? IE you use another sim than the one that was provided? If so then...
email [email protected] and say this:
Hi, I am travelling outside the US, and I need an unlock code
My IMEI is: _____________ (your imei)
Thanks!
______________________________
The IMEI is found under your battery. Also make note of the service tag as they will probably want that too.
If your trying to sideload apps, then I hear the Chevron tool works great.
yes, I've sent mail to dell. They said it's a retail item, cannot give code.

you might have to call them then... I still havent recieved a response, and meanwhile I already travelled to the UK, so I am phoneless. Cheapest cheap phone here is 20pounds, but Virgin Mobile gave me a free SIM card to try out so I think I will have a friend in the States call them and give em my info so I can get this unlocked promptly. Their mobile support number that you should call would be 1-800-308-3355
Same problem
Hi there
I am having the same problem, did you get this resolved?
Thanks
im having the exact same problem here. even worse, i figured getting the unlock code would be pretty easy so i swapper out the 8gb card for a 32gb sd card which means the warranty us no good anymore and i cant send it back to the ebayer i bought it from.
i got in touch with dell anyway, same thing, its a retail device to contact tmobile.
but its not possible at the moment because i need to know the phone number of the sim card that came with it to sign up to the tmobile website, and i cant find out the number.
so does anybody have an email address for tmobile i could use it would be a great help?

S6 EE UK Sim Unlock

Folks just a note on my experience attempting to sim unlock my S6 on EE UK, I attempted to unlock my device using a few online unlocking service providers, 2 of them provided codes that were unsuccessful and the other worked first time.
The code that worked for me was from SamsungCodeSource.com and I would recommend them for anybody looking to get their handset unlocked...........for the record I'm not affiliated with them in any way just thought I would share to save anyone else the hassle of going through several unlock providers.
Feel free to add any others that have worked for you to allow other users to get their handset unlocked first time.

Was there a reason you did not go through EE themselves, i'm currently trying to get mine unlocked and EE says 10 days, its been 7 and no code yet.

Did mine through EE, first time they came back and said I had not had contract over 6 months (which I had) rang them back and eventually got the code in a text message on day 11 or 12 of the second request.
I phoned EE after waiting 11 days and the guy done it there and then for me, said originally there was a delay in getting the code form Samsung.
I used ebay and received a code in 3 hours for £11. I do not know if the phone was bought as part of a contract as it was a gift. BTW do you guys have the app called sec.abt showing in applications under settings? It is a rootkit that comes with EE phones, everyday it sends about 5 text messages to EE which is costing me like crazy! I am going to do a stock flash with odin and hopefully it will go.
