Hi guys,
Not trying to annoy anyone but this is a question to more the senior developers.
Is there an estimate on how long it will take to get the Sim Unlock for the Kaiser ?
I'm asking for the following 2 reasons:
1. My provider (tmobile) takes 28 days to provide an unlocking code
2. tmobile charge up to 30UKP for this service.
I think i can speak for a few of the peeps here that if the tool comes out before 28days, i'm happy to donate perhaps a large portion of the full unlocking cost tmobile would charge.
As it's my first Vario/Kaiser, i'm not sure how long these devices take to 'unlock' or if someone here has a key unlock code provider...
Let me know.
anyone can help him?

Hi,
I am just new here, and I am so glad that I found this forum.
I might sound stupid, but just wanted to check if I can get some help on the dilemma I am facing. My dad just bought ATT Tilt as a gift for me. I live in India so I need to be able to unlock it so that I can use it with the local service provider. I was thinking of buying an unlock code based on the IMEI.My question is should I be physically present in US to be able to unlock it this way?
Thanks,
Stevens
I don't think it matters where you are calling from. The important thing is to call the ATT customer care and tell them your dilemma. And depending upon the person that you speak, they may give you the unlock code over the phone.
If you call and do not get a favorable reply, hang up and keep trying. Eventually, you'll run into someone that will help you.
You dont have to be here
When you insert a foreign SIM, it i will ask for a code and all you have to do is punch it in...won't matter where you are.
i dont know how to unlock my wing to use it in other coutry i am from ecuador i want to use it in my coutry i need the code can u give it to me please
T-Mobile Unlock
This is simple........and it is a T-Mobile Pollicy......
After 90 days into you contract, call T-Mobile, and ask for them to submit an unlock code request for your t-Mobile Phone. They will ask for your phones IMEI Number so make sure you copy that down before you call. they will then submit the request to HTC, and within about a week you will get an e-mail giving you the unlock code.
This worked for me 2 weeks ago in the USA, I also have heard reports from other forums that if you say you have to go on buisness overseas, they will wave the 90 day wait period and submit the request right then and there.

Hey! Everybody know that you can order unlock code from tmobile but if you have a contract with t-mobile. But may be somebody know how to unlock by flashing, means for free.
Please note that the T-mobile Wing IS NOT the HTC Wings.
To anyone who can help me,
I am aware that to recieve the unlock code from AT&T all one has to do is call them up, say you are traveling oversees, and then give them your IMEI number and then you recieve the code. I am wondering, however, if it is possible to enter that number in the phone if it isnt registered or has a plan. What i would like to do is buy this phone, walk out the doors of AT&T and then call them up, unlock the code and insert my SIM, without having to make a plan for the phone with them.
-Thanks to anyone who can provide useful information
Go to the att coperate store, not authorized dealer; buy the tilt at full price. Call them right there and ask for the subsidy unlock code. Normally, the rep will require a fax of the receipt which shows that you pay at full price if you're not att subcriber.
In the worst case, there are some solutions for you:
1, Return the tilt within 30 days and get your full money back.
2. Look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=361039 to get it unlock by yourself.
BTW, do you really want to buy the phone which is set for "end of life" in December?
Thank you for the information. I was not aware that the tilt would be coming to an end. What would you recomend that would have the... Live TV, WIFI, and other features such as the tilt?

End of Life? Where are you getting that from? Can you post a link with info please
I just got one and used this thread to unlock it myself. Hell with talking to ATT, thats an endless loop that takes like 5 calls and alot of patience.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=375583
I would probably unlock the phone myself, but due to the fact that i am not as tech savy i would not want to risk it. Also if you unlock it yourself, doesnt it re-lock with updates, where as the ATT unlock, unlocks it for good.
Everyone was noob at sometimes. It's not hard as you may think. Furthermore, if you can't get it unlock yourself AND att doesn't give out the unlock code then return it and get your full money back within a month. Good deal?
No. Tilt is not a PC so you don't have to worry that it will be re-locked when you upgrade

It simply means att will stop selling Tilt after December 2008.
An att rep I talked with when I called to ask about the Fuze (aka Touch PRO) whom was confirmed this info, too. You can also go to Raphael box in this board and search for Fuze.

OK, noob question....
Is a PUK code the "unlock code" we are talking about here?
The PUK Code for AT&T Customers is available from the AT&T website. Seems like if this is the code, it saves a lot phone calls and pain to just go to the website and get the code.
If this is the code you need to unlock the phone, then I'll post instructions to get to the proper page on the AT&T site.

Nope. A PUK code is required when your SIM card becomes blocked on the network. The most common cause of this is someone activating a PIN code on their SIM, and then either forgetting the code, or entering it incorrectly 3 times. The SIM is then locked (for security purposes) and AT&T will give you a PUK code to unlock it once they verify you are the account holder.
do a search you can unlock it here online by dowloading and flashing a couple things
Hi Ya
Pls help me looking everywhere desperately for an unlock code for my G1
My uncle bought me a G1 in England and i live in Greece..... So i really need an unlock code....
If someone could help me giving me my unlock code i would be very very happy.
BTW i will PM my IMEI to the one who can find it for me...
Or if nobody can find anything can someone tell me when the will be a program coming out to unlock the G1 like they did for the Iphone ....
Hello there,
This isn't the answer you're probably looking for, but you'd need to get back in contact with T-Mobile UK. As they will be the only ones that hold the unlocking code for you. Root'ing will not be able to unlock you're phone so there is no program for this. Not to sure how much unlocking codes cost from t-mobile, there is no information on the website. You could try and call +44 79539 66 150 which is the roaming number (it'll put you to the front of the queue and you can ask an agent there)
Hope this helps!
Hi again
Thanx a lot for trying to help me. I will phone them monday at 12 o'clock (greek time) ....

Hope they can provide you with your code!
Ye ok thanx ...
Any ideas what i should say ???
I phoned T-mobile US and they say with out a T-mobile account number i can't do anything... Is that true ???
I really want to try my G1
T-mobile is not necessary, it's just the free way if you are already with t-mobile. There are several 3rd party websites which can aquire an unlock code for you. Most guarentee you a code almost instantly, my understanding is htc charges them $10 and they in turn charge you $20, thereby earning $10 for a simple email/money transfer to htc. Afaik some company needs to contact htc for you, I don't think you can deal directly with htc tho that would be nice. Unfortunately I can't really recommend anyone to go thru as I've done all my unlocking thru t-mobile.
Edit: also if you know someone with t-mobile every 90 days t-mobile will unlock a phone for them. The phone doesn't have to be registered to their account just tied to t-mobile. As a matter of fact to actually unlock the dream you must put in a non-tmo sim. Your 'friend' may need to tell t-mo they intend to leave the country or something, your friend may also require a few bux for the trouble lol
Yeah usually just stating that you plan to use the mobile abroad is sufficient enough for them to hand over the code. If not then keep pressing for it and hopefully they will get a manager or someone higher to deal with the issue. The joys of support
I know in the UK certain vendors (Vodafone) offer all of their phones unlocked to begin with but I don't know what it's like in the states.
Hi guys
This morning i phoned T-mobile uk with NPerry number. LOL it was funny i waited like 10 min. Then someone finally answered but he couldn't hear what i was saying (i was on skype) so i lost 2 euros calling and i didn't have what i wanted....
So i decided to buy an unlock code. So pls tell me which site is the best and most secure ???? www.htccode.com ? (looks like it doesn't word anymore it says "This Account Has Been Suspended" ow well) what else http://www.modmygphone.com/ ???
pls anwer
And BTW thanx for the others that answered me before
Y'all might be thinking this is a request but it's not, it's to remind everyone of the TracFone (parent company) unlocking policy and website to get your device unlocked. I just got one of these S5 handed to me last night so after some digging and seeing a lot of effort put into this device but to no ends, maybe this can help you guys out.
I literally had the step-by-step instructions given to me to unlocking, as long as you got the criteria. Someone like @DeepPurple72 who would meet the criteria I'm sure lol
TracFone Wireless Unlocking Policy
Hope it helps. (Maybe this will help with other TracFone devices for others too idk)
Also, to get to the TracFone unlock menu (where you'll put the code(s) in) dial #83865625#
hello bro i have exactly the same phone as yours SM-S903VL please can you help me unlock it thanks.
