Hi. I have a t-mobile g1. locked... and this is my problem becouse I don't have a contract with t-mobile and i don't know enyone with it. Can someone call to UK t-mobile and try to unlock my G1?? Plz Help me... I'm hopeless
First off we cannot use our contract to unlock a phone that is not on it. so i would recommend that you go to one of the unlocking sites, you can search them using Google or any other search engine
Theunlockr.com can get u a code to unlock it for $20 if I remember right

first root and than unlock or vice verse?
Thanks ahead
Unlock as in sim unlock? Afaik doesn't matter. You can sim unlock an unrooted phone and vice versa

OK let's stick with the sim unlock
What are the steps and which tools is needed ?
Sim unlocking has to be done with a code. Find a cell repair store near you and ask about sim unlocking. It'll probably cost 20-30 bucks. You can also try some online stores, google xt860 sim unlock. Rooting you can do yourself. If you are on android 2.3.4 you can use Pete's one.click found in the dev section. I'm not sure if it works on the new 2.3.6, but if not search for zergrush. Or find my thread labeled "The xt860, custom roms and you" I've linked to zergrush in there. If you are new to all this may I suggest you spend some time reading various threads and make sure you read directions before attempting anything. If your unsure just ask rather than rushing in and bricking your phone.

Thanks
the only way to unlocking is using code ??
i use your advice and spend some time reading Before I jump in
Ya you need a code. I was unable to unlock mine. Tried a online service which eventually emailed me back saying they could not find a code. Full refund though. Also tried a store but they could not find a code either. Code is specific to your IMEI which is a number specific to your device. But I know others have successfully unlocked theirs. Also unlock my kill your 3g but there is a fix somewhere on here. We can find it of you need it. But for sure best thing you can do is read and educate as much as you can about your device before rooting.

I used mobileincanada.com twice and that seemed to have worked.
i know verizon will unlock your phone for free. Im not sure about other providers but if you tell your provider your going out of country on business and would like to use your own simcard while away, they will usually allow this as long as you you say your "keeping" your contract with them

Guys,
Any one know if it's possible to unlock via software my Incredible S? My phone is from Movistar, Chile and this carrier says that they don't have unlock code for this phone, so they will get it with HTC but I'm waiting since 4 months for this. Also, any unlock code provider like Fast GSM doesn't support my carrier.
Cheers!

They don't work for network unlock. Ring then up again and keep asking to speak to managers, I then got ny code 3 days later.
Or try googling ' incredible s network unlock code'. A lot of them offer money return if it does not work.

Hey guys I bought an HTC one outright from T-mobile and now T-Mobile is saying that I need an account in order to get unlock code. Does anyone know a free way to get code or has the code.

I believe there's a free way to SIM Unlock your device. I also believe that it is achievable when turning off security of the device, therefore making it S-OFF rather than S-ON.
im so sorry to bother you guys like this but im in desperate need of help. i got a motorola atrix hd from ebay a week ago and it says it was unlocked but now that i put my sim in its asking for an unlock code. i tried calling att for a code but they tell me they only give codes to their customers. i live in the bahamas and i dont have any other options. help please!
The only way around to fix your problem is by:
1. Buy a Network Unlock Code
2. Return the phone to the eBay seller
I will prefer option 1

hi just got a htc one locked to o2 uk is there any program or app will unlock it as i paid for an unlock code and they couldnt unlock it
Well first get a refund for that unlock code.
Since the HTC has been out for a year now if you have been an o2 customer for longer than 6 months if you ring o2 or go to there stores they may unlock it for free.
That's what I did with three and I know Vodafone does that too. Might be worth a try with o2
To my knowledge there is no software or programme on xda that can SIM unlock the htc one

rooting the phone will not sim-unlock it. You must be 100% stock to use the sim unlock code (or as far as possible to stock, i.e stock rom)
Try another sim unlock code or ask you carrier like suggested above.
