Before you all start, yes iv searched !!!
I got a T Mobile G1 UK, locked with RC9. I can’t ring T Mobile because I’m not a customer there. Can anyone tell me if it’s possible to do it free or if not a reliable website that can help me if I have to purchase something?
Thanks for your time.

Yes there is a thread on unlocking on the Dev section of the Dream forum. Try searching there some more, as I saw one UK thread that had a little info.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=517810&highlight=unlock
Heres a link to a sim unlocking thread that deals with the US G1, but I imagine it's prob pretty similar.
The only way to get a free code is by having a t-mobile customer to get one for you. One of your friends, or anyone kind enough to get you one from xda. I'm hoping I can find someone as well.

Do you actually have this device??!?!
To the OP just put in a sim card other than one that its locked to, turn it on and it'll ask you for your unlock code.

Dude... dont blame me man, I just googled for someone who can't be arsed.
Anyway, when people asks about unlocking they usually refer to 'network unlock', perhaps if the OP wants to know about unlocking his/her locked sim from the handset, he/she should of made it a little more clearly, right?
i did it on my x10a so im not sure if its the same for x10i
insert a sim card from another network
a screen will show up asking you to punch in a code
keep tapping on the blank space where you are suppose to enter the code until a keypad comes up
enter in your unlock code

well if you read it properly you would discover that he did indeed ask how to remove the network lock using a code he bought and also that the instructions you gave were about as much use as tits on a bull because they are clearly not for the x10 (how for example are you supposed to press the joystick left when there isnt one?)

Dude.. I didn't write them. Why not ask those folks at unlockallcellular.com?
Alternatively, the OP could of called his/her operator and seek help.
I'm pretty sure they have a tech team.

Dude...
Next time, I won't even try next time, correct or not.
Considering the abuse I'm getting, it ain't worth it.
OK. The help I tried posting turned out to be incorrect. Happy?
Would it of been too hard for who-ever notices the blunder and corrected me? I thought this is a "developer's forum" maybe I'll return to HoFo... seems much friendlier there, even with all the noobs.
I'm wondering, did anyone ever consider the possibility here? Cause prior to posting, I read the instructions and the little box under it then thought that's a possibility; considering there are up and down keys (volume). I can't test it, since my cell arrive stock without network locks or branding.

you were the one with the sarcastic comment, if you want to leave, do, i really dont care. bit pathetic to leave a forum because of one persons comment though aint it? grow a pair and move on.
I been using the market place on and off with my last few phones but only installed free apps...
Was looking at some apps to buy and wanted to know if it's as secure as paypal etc?
yes it is....
but think about this.... no one here on these forums is actually "qualified" enough to give certain advice... well maybe some but majority are forum drifters.. (go to different forums depending on the mobile phone they are currently using)... now my answer is just as good as yours... and its funny because some people just need to hear someone say it... regardless of it be true or not....
so to answer your question..... yes.... it is.... but ask yourself why does it comfort you simply because i just told you so.....
sorry everyone... psych major, and forums are a great place to observe behavior and interactions..
lol, I don't know if I should thank you or not...
But yeah... If 9/10 said its fine I'd be happy...
bravo...since you were such a good sport and didn't cry like most members....
yes... the marketplace is actually quite secure... check online.. there hasn't been one bad experience recorded... and i use it with no problems at all... and I'm a very cautious online buyer... cheers
lol... I got thicker skin than most...
I work with dual diagnosis (addiction & mental health) men in a residential rehab so I kind of giggle at the cry babies on forums... Get a backbone and a box of tissues I say...
I bought my first marketplace app... A $2 speedo... Yeeehaw!!!
Iam wondering how do you set a theme for you background. I just got this phone 3 days ago and its complicated.

It is behind the battery cover. Open the battery cover and look at the corner on your left side. It should has a slot labeled SDcard.
ok
Ok got it thanks

Hi guys I just got this phone and got alot of questions. Iam glad I found this place so I could just ask and people will help and answer. This is the best !!!

There are little tabs at the top corner of the battery on the sides, just use them to tilt the battery away and lift up and out ..

You should have paid attention to the warnings in the "unlock for free" thread. This has happened to many people and I have yet to see a solution.

Cellunlocker.net has a system to reset sim code deactivation, but from what I have seen it isn't working for people that lost ability to unlock because of the "free unlock" method. You could still contact them and ask about it. It does cost a little extra.

That's the same method that's causing the problem with a lot of phones in the first place. Just when I thought I had seen it all! :laugh:

There are three things wrong with your inferior attempt at an insult:
1. WTF is there to read? This thread just started its second page, so telling me that I am not reading first is stupid on your part.
2. I have zero issues with this method. I cannot speak for anyone else who doesn't know what they are doing.
3. I am pretty sure you have never seen a cow fly, or a pig file taxes, or in your case how people like yourself end up when treating the wrong person with disrespect.
Try being considerate when posting. If it doesn't have anything to do with fixing the OP's issue, don't post ridiculous crap. If you were trying to hurt my feelings, you didn't.
I have had an active account with xda for a while now, but its people like you who are immature and rude that keep me from posting.
I'm going to get back to my life now, so don't bother posting a reply because I won't waste my time reading it. If there were so many problems with my suggestion, try being more tactful in what you say.

Well said good sir! I've used the free method for a few of my friends phones and on my s3 and now s4 with zero issues. With how many videos and guides there are on how to do this it SHOULD be idiotproof, you should only get issues when you don't pay attention.
soluction
sometime s4 does not accept code directly ...i had same problem and unlocked it from local shop using flashing device z3x
so goto local mobile shop or get your own device and ucart c3300k cable :good::good::good::good:

You missed where the op said he already did this and how this is what caused the code to not work.
