I see a lot of people working on a lot of other things, but is anyone actually actively working on a solution to unlock the Streak?
How did people get their Nexus Ones/Desires unlocked without going to their Telco?
How do these websites get unlock codes for phones? Have they hacked the phones and come up with some kind of keygen?
Or does every unlock code, whether its from a Telco or an independant websirte, ultimately come from the Telco/Hardware manafacturer?
I am looking everything few days at loads of "unlock" sites ...other forums etc.. Still nothing. Expect things start after the streak launch in the US.
Correct me if i'm wrong, but i thought those unlocking sites got the codes direct from the carrier?
Also, i believe those with unlocked Nexus's (myself included) have unlocked ones because they got them direct from Google. All the others are locked down to the different carries. As far as i'm aware, the only way to unlock a phone is from these unlocking sites or via the carrier, and as O2 have said they wont be releasing the unlock codes until next year, it will be a while before the option becomes available.
Unlock sites don't always get unlock codes from carriers. Plenty of people who are able to develop an key generator. Willing to develop one is another matter, guess its all about ROI.
ROI? Republic of Ireland? Why? Is there where most of the key gen devs live?!?!
I've had enough of this unlocking business.
I've tried for three days now, going to over 10 local stores, malls, and other places to see if they can unlock my Rogers Dell Streak. I've tried countless websites only to be disappointed too.
Seriously, what's with carriers locking their phones? If people want to use their network, it should be because of their plans and customer service, not because of what phones they have.
Oh well, I'm selling my Dell Streak now. Very frustrated, because I actually like the device. But until there is a freakin easy way to unlock it, forget it. Not worth the hassle and headache.
Just use a rebel sim, it's only snobbery when people say it's not unlocked with a rebel, when you can do exactly the same thing.
The going rate for a streak code unlock is $100 or £45

Yes, I am looking for unlock code for my Streak too because it's an engineering sample and AT&T doesn't have the unlock code in their comuter.
It would be nice if someone could actually do something about this. Most AT&T folks have it easier since AT&T readily gives out the codes over the phone. Us unfortunate souls stuck with O2 locked Streaks are effectively screwed until O2 decides to change their stance on the unlocking thing. And most of the solutions found online are exorbitantly priced too.
att is giving out unlock codes for the streak. infact they are giving out unlock codes for their other phones too. dunno whats possessed them of all people to start doing that. if you have a rogers streak you can call att, they may have them since i dont think anything is really changed from the att one. i believe o2 is giving out unlock codes for the streak too. if not, you can always try the rebel sim card. it costs money and doesnt work with 2.2 though.
I can unlock without any problems.pm me if you need an unlock. Att only gives them out for SOME existing customers.

Yes: judging by the results of folks on the modaco forum keep pestering o2 until you get a result.
unlocking my Streak
I have a Streak which bought privately and an o2 sim only contract
If this is of any help, hear is the way I just unlocked mine free of charge and a day later (yesterday) my upgrade to 2.2 came through, bearing in mind this has taken about 10 days. you will understand why, as you read!
I emailed o2 and simply asked for an unlocking code, knowing the reply I would get setting in motion my already written response thanks to adzman over ad Modaco
o2 replied
Hello
I'm sorry the Dell Streak can't be unlocked by us as it's an exclusive phone and the manufacturer haven't given us the unlocking rights. Please contact the manufacturer to get it unlocked. I hope this helps. If you need any help, please email us or you visit our online helps centre on, (unable to post link)
I then replied
Hi
My understanding is the streak is no longer exclusive to o2 & therefore should qualify for unlocking. Other people have successfully obtained an unlock code for their streak from o2 The streak is now available on orange & vodafone (unable to post link) Also the streak is available sim free directly from dell or via tesco & argos (unable to post links) I understand that when first released this handset was exclusive to o2 & therefore not available for unlock. But as I’ve demonstrated this is no longer the case. I have no intention to leave o2, I like O2 that's why I came back to you, It's the fact that I bought this O2 Dell Streak privately and am using a sim only contract from you. Besides the dell streak is now available for unlocking via 3rd party companies (unable to post link) Please can you provide the unlock code, obviously I would rather deal directly with yourselves, but if need be I can get my device unlocked via the 3rd party. as i say, I’m very happy with O2 - please don't ruin the relationship I have with O2. If required I’d be delighted to talk to an O2 representative from your service management team to ensure my needs as a customer are met Thanks & regards
o2 replied
Hi
We don't have the code for this one on our database & will need to request this from the manufacturer. I'll have this requested & pass it on to you as soon as we get the code back.
Kind Regards
I replied
Dell Streak, and my IMEI number is= 354************
After a while I replied
l seem to be still awaiting my unlock code, is there a problem?
o2 replied
Hello
Thanks for your email. I'm sorry you haven't received your unlatching code yet and for the delay in getting back to you. Unfortunately, we're having trouble getting the codes for Dell Streak devices at the moment but we'll keep requesting the code you need. I'm afraid I can't tell you how long this will take, but as soon as we have the code you need we'll let you know. If there's anything else we can do for you just drop us an email. I hope you enjoy the rest of your day.
Kind Regards
I replied
Re my waiting for my Dell Streak unlatching code. If you haven't got my code on your database and have to retrieve it direct from dell, does this mean that I will also have a problem with the O2 Android 2.2 upgrade which is due out today?
Next day I received my unlatching code
Hi
We have receive unlatching code for your Dell Streak handset however we haven't receive unlatching procedure for the same. The code you require for your handset is "02******"
Kind Regards
The procedure is simple take out your sim and put in a competitors, Tmobile, Vodafone etc. it will then ask for the code when you switch back on.
All this was over a 10 day period
Hope this is some use to somebody

I got an unlock code from calling AT&T. They said to enter another carriers SIM card, to get the prompt for the code. I do not know anyone who has a service with a SIM card in my city, besides T-Mobile. And no one here uses crappy T-Mobile.
My question is: how else can I get the prompt to unlock without another carriers SIM card?
(Dell will call AT&T on your behalf to get the code as well if you are scared of the AT&T techs)
sim
you can get a free pay as you go sim from the Tmobile site, don't know how long it will take to come through or maybe get in touch with somebody local to send you an expired one.
I have a bunch of expired tmo sims laying around if you need one.

Once again, some will some will not. And mostly if youre in need of an unlock code youre not planning on using att, which att WILL NOT provide an unlock code to non customers sadly.

So I was chatting with a dell support man and he said the Streak will be locked and AT&T won't be giving out unlock codes for the time being. I was wondering what are my options for trying to unlock it? Will rebel sims or anything similar work?
Anyone have thoughts/suggests on the US version if locked? Sort of seeming like even off contract they will still be locked to ATT. Wanted to use in Canada on Rogers/TELUS.
Whenever i need a phone unlocked i just call ATT. I've done this many times for a long time. I just call them up, say i'm going overseas for business, they'll pitch me the international data plan and i tell them i don't need that cuz i'm gonna use a local sim, give them the IMEI # and they tell me the unlock code. simple as that. I've done this for nokias, samsungs, motorolas and HTC devices.
Your account has to be in good standing though.
I was talking to a guy using their chat service and he said the Streak is going to be sold locked to AT&T and he said that AT&T isn't going to be giving out unlock codes like the samsung Captivate.
This is why I was asking about the sim addons because if AT&T doesn't give out the unlock code I doubt any of the online sites would have any to sell me.
Also koolin and myself live in Canada so we woudln't even have an account to be in good standing.

I don't think Dell will sell the locked version if you are willing to pay $549 US. The device itself is already network (3G) restricted to AT&T so if people really want the device they will have to sign up with AT&T @$299 US.
Who would then want to pay $549 US for a locked version?
Confirmed locked via LionelatDell twitter.

Lots of folks are asking about the $549 version of #dellstreak. To be clear, it will not be unlocked. It is SIM-locked to AT&T.

Thanks for the updated info. I'm with you on this.
This is a sucidal business / marketing strategy going head to head against iPhone4 ... Streak soon become strike ... and then out.
Although I do indeed have ATT, I will not be purchasing another Streak untill Dell launches the unlocked Streak to the US. The last thing I want is ATT to have my device information such as IMEI number...
.
Well I just contacted two unlocking companies here in Canada. MobileInCanada said "Sorry no", and SNTraders said "most likely yes" ...need device to confirm.
So who wants to risk it
edit - to add SNTraders said they would be importing and selling as well but no date/price yet.

Unlocking is definitely already possible but who can do it? I'm using a Dell Streak right now in Toronto with Rogers. Am I missing something here? Were all Beta Streaks unlocked to begin with?
Yes the Beta Streaks were unlocked but the new ones coming out are going to be locked ot AT&T. But this thread isn't about if it is locked (it is for sure) but about what can we do to unlock the Streak once it hits the streets.

You realize that unlocked or not, if you're using a phone on the AT&T network, they automatically know your IMEI number.
I got the same next week for unlocked version
I also chatted yesterday with Dell
I got the same "next week" for the unlocked version of the US streak,
also they said that if you have a presale code it will be honored next week, so you get the $0.99 headset
Hope it's true

Yes I realize that. But does ATT know which IMEI numbers go to which device? If all of these locked versions have their IMEI numbers registered as a Streak to ATT, don't you think ATT will try to charge a 'smart-phone data-rate' specifically for the device?
I still have the basic phone unlimited data plan for ATT from several years ago. I would not want to mess that up with costs of mobile bandwidth these days.

I was all excited about this news and then I realized that the Dell Agent was too polite .. this is NOT a USA agent, right? this is NOT USA Dell, I suspect.
I noticed yesterday when giving several agents at Dell the 3rd degree about T-Mobile, they didn't say "The phone is locked to AT&T." They said "Dell only supports AT&T."
Maybe that was wishful thinking on my part ...

IF THE ABOVE IS CORRECT?
I was going to return my Streak unopened tomorrow, but if this above is correct, I think I will put my Tmobile sim in there JUST IN CASE and test it ... maybe they are all unlocked and Dell is CLUELESS .. What would be the point of having both locked and unlocked? When you order the sales person says "you want it LOCKED or UNLOCKED..." Makes no sense ..

I think you'll cost yourself a restocking fee (if they do that on opened product) as I'll bet anything it's locked, and the reps just don't know what they're saying.
Dell isn't a phone company, they don't really understand all the locked/unlocked on contract/off contract stuff.
Just my two cents...
called now DELL, a guy prob from India, told me that there will be no streak unlocked, huh, so prob we have to get the unlock code from at&t
I have a friend who has an AT&T Store. I spent 2 hours with him today while he called AT&T techs and customer service. They say they cannot provide the unlock code because the IMEI number is not in their computers. They said Dell needs to provide the unlock. So my friend got AT&T and Dell on a conference call. Dell said they cannot unlock the phone. They do not have a way of getting unlock codes . CALL AT&T .. AT&T says "I am AT&T .. the IMEI is not in my system."
My friend was saying to AT&T that "there is a customer in my store who wants to travel with her phone and needs it unlocked for travel in other countries." AT&T would FOR SURE have given an unlock code if the IMEI was in their computer.
So what's next? I put mine on eBay and if it doesn't sell I will return it Monday.

Yeh thats me! Not sure if its free after all, need to wait for my account to update [3 day wait], am on Vodafone though rather than O2. Still even if its £15 still cheaper than any other option out there....
this makes no sense to me. I paid £400 for my streak on pay as you go with 02. I'm with T-mobile... so how do I enter my 02 number etc? I dont have one :-(
I don't either, used my Vodafone contract number.

Hmmm guess I got lucky then, I posted my replies at the modaco thread.
How long did it take for you guys to get a reply?
I sent an email off requesting an unlock, and stated that when I requested one first time around and was denied, it was because the Streak was exclusive to O2, but now that I can buy a streak from Tesco, it was no longer exclusive.
I'm wondering if perhaps the somewhat lengthy time it's taking to reply means they've asked Dell for my unlock code...

About a day, ask your self this; why would o2 unlock for free? (or at all for that matter).
The only reason you're asking them is because you can then say goodbye and to then use a competitor! one thing that mobile phone companies don't like it's losing income. So i very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very, very much doubt that they're doing it all, do you????????!!!!!!!!!!!!

I suspect it will cost £15, and here's why;
I frequently travel abroad. While abroad I can't use a native SIM with my streak, because it's locked to O2. As it stands, my streak is on a 2 year contract. O2 can either provide quality service and let me use my streak in other countries, get the money for the unlock, and have me tell my friends about what a great company they were for doing so, or I can pay Rebelsim, jump ship to a different operator when my contract is up, and encourage my friends to buy a streak directly from Dell.
That's why.

Help.
i bought a dell streak (full price) from BestBuy usa. Then i returned to VietNam. But i can't use my streak because it requires unlock code. I tried to contact with many code provider, but they said that my unlock code is not found. they asked me to contact with dell to get information.
today i called for dell, at&t and bestbuy. But i were very disappointed. they said that can not to find unlock code for me. i'm look like a unlucky guy. because they got some problems with my dell streak. they request me to give my streak back for them to check in 30 days. you know, i live in vietnam and i can't fly to usa just to give streak back for them. it's not fair because i paid full price for that thing.
Now i got pda streak without phone. I don't know what I have to do with it. I took much time for it, but i got nothing. It's not fair.
There are many websites where you can purchase unlock codes.
Fairly pricey, but a reliable website (or so i've heard) - http://www.unlockallcellular.com/dell-streak-unlock-code-p-62157.html?affiliate_id=1239
I called AT&T and they gave me my unlock code
My Streak is in the same situation. I purchased an used one from ebay, DELL claimed it's beta test one based on the service code that I provided. It works with AT&T sim card, but not T-Mobile, which I am using now. AT&T CR said no unlock code for my IMEI number.
PM me your EMIE # and I'll see if I can get AT&T to provide me the unlock code for your Streak. They are pretty nice to me(could be the business account)
I agree, there are some phones that ATT has on the "no questions asked" SIM unlock, and the streak should be one especially since they don't even carry it. All I did was call 611 (customer support), and said I was going out of the country on business and needed an unlock code so I could use a prepaid SIM card and they gave it to me no questions asked. They do need your IMEI as previously stated, but after that, they should give it up like a cheap prom date!
I'm having the same problem at the moment. I've unlocked 2 black streaks by calling AT&T. But when I called to unlock my white Streak, they told me that their system tells them that there is no unlock code available
I can use it with a Rebelsim though and since Steve has started releasing his froyo builds with the old baseband, there's no real need to unlock at the moment.

Hi, I just sent my Dell Streak IMEI number. Could you please try to see if you can get unlock code for me. Thanks a lot!
Who can help me?
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.

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?

Communicated with Shallow Blue to obtain unlock code for my windows phone and was pleased with the service. Quick and accurate. One code worked first time for a fair fee.
