I got my xz from Australia Vodafone, everything is fine.
They actually provide a website for you to unlock the network lock.:fingers-crossed:

did vodafone unlocked your t-mobile xz phone for u to use in AU vodafone? or do you think i should look for a t-mobile unlock website?

Au vodafone only unlock phones purchased from au vodafone
Before i bought a motorala maxx from Verizon us via eBay.
According to the seller, he send an email to Verizon said he want to use his phone overseas.
Then the Verizon unlocked the phone.
As long as u r a current t mobile customer, u can ask them directly

[Q] Use In Europe?

Does anyone know if I can use this phone in Europe? I have it SIMUnlocked. And I got it off contract. Just wondering if I can use it on a European providers network when I head there this summer.
Thanks!

Thanks for the help.

Yes, works great here. Just make sure you put in the correct APN settings.
Using First in Italy without any trouble, 4g mode is available...
I use the HTC First in Germany with Vodafone and it works great. Also with 4G. Just check APN from your Provider and then lets go.
Have fun!

Hi guys i have a xperia z rooted locked to talktalk network and it need it on o2 i have rooted it etc but i need to know if their is a way to unlock it with the acceptation or root privileges
please could someone help me i don't want to do it via code it never goes down for me haha it this possible or am i being a NOOB!! :silly:

First, are you sure it's even network locked? Aren't Talktalk associated with Carphone Warehouse? If so, CPW always supply unbranded unlocked handsets in my experience.
Enter *#*#7378423#*#* in the dialler then look in Service Info -> Sim lock. If the boxes to the left of the text are empty, then your phone is not network locked.
Edit: It seems Talktalk and CPW parted ways a while back, but I did find this in reference to network locking handsets on their forums - http://talktalkmembers.net/forums/showthread.php?t=100547

Is the bootloader unlockable? Have you tried creating an FTF using _Flashtool? I wonder if it'll work on a c6602

unlocking became illegal in the US, right? The phone is officially announced but not out yet. I really want to use it on at&t, don't want to carry 2 phones when I go out.

I haven't tried to unlock BL or root this phone. Do you want to flash a FTF of c6606 on your c6602?

Yes, I knew some sellers on eBay offer unlocking service. I am just afraid that unlocking my phone will break the law.

Did you buy the phone outright from a Sony store? If so, go ahead and get an unlock code for it. According to most places reporting on the ban that I've looked at, it's only subsidised handsets that are covered under this downright stupid piece of legislation

I got this phone for free like 3-4 weeks ago on a sony experience conference. It was given to us as a display to introduce this cool thing to t-mobile customers. having one of the latest smartphone without the service would be useless. I just want to enjoy this phone under at&t service. oh man!

I think at&t and t-mobile require a minimum period before they can give you an unlock code.

Just have someone with T-mobile call t-mobile and get an unlock code. They do not require a minimum period. It only takes about 2 weeks for them to process it. I have done it many times with phones. That said, I am almost certain that this phone only works on T-mobile's bands, but I could be wrong. But it is branded for T-mobile. If you wanted one for AT&T, you should try selling the one you have and ordering an international version.

The phone is actually out today. I will try to ask tmobile to get the unlock code probably next week. As I know there is a requirement to submit an unlocking request. The phone need to be used on a prepaid number, which I have, more than 40 days.
International version doesn't support US LTE at all unless there will be C6606 for international.

XZ...T-mobile UK

So I pick up my new XZ on saturday.
The first thing I'm going to do is route this bad boy. I have read lots of info regarding the various methods used.
My question is can the bootloader be unlocked on a T-mobile uk XZ??
Enter service menu and Check uself. No need to make another tread about it.

They supplied me with an unbranded, sim free phone. The bootloader is unlockable.

Direct from T Mobile it will be locked, if through third party but with SIM, should be unlockable...

Wrong. I upgraded direct from T-Mobile via their upgrade line. I have an unbranded device as I already stated.
T-Mobile UK branded Zs do not even exist.

I stand corrected then by saying it is as standard, I remarked because a friend of mine got one after seeingmine and his is not unlockable.
