Is there a way to unlock a phone?
I got a phone which is sim locked (got it on sale for low price), but it is sim locked.
I don't know the carrier...
Thanks

Lock code or blacklist? If blacklist you got a nice media player. What's on screen when you boot up?

What is the reason people unlock there sim card?
I keep reading people unlock it, but I don't see the reasons why. Nobody seems to do anything with it once it is unlocked.
So my question is - Why should I unlock it and What can I do once I unlock it.
My 8125 Unlocked Becuz iam with cingular right now and if i switch with a different company like t-mobile i just insert my SIM Card!
Becuz the phone its unlocked and i can use any SIM Card With it!
I SIM unlocked my 8125's because I use T-Mobile.
If you use AT&T, then there's no reason to SIM unlock your 8125 except maybe for resale value. You're more likely to find more interested buyers if your phone can work with T-Mobile or any other provider worldwide. I always SIM unlock my phones before throwing them up for sale on eBay.
Ok so unlocking the sim is not Unlocking the actuial SIM, but making it so any sim could work in it. Ok now I get it . Thank you.

You should contact Verizon for an unlock code. If they won't provide you with one then you need to contact one of the sites on the Internet and purchase an unlock code for your phone.
Unlike a lot of previous HTC devices, a software solution to SIM unlock your phone no longer works on the IncS.
Thanks for the info...
I don't know how it is in the States but here in Gemany I usually got such a code with every SIM-card I bought... Maybe search dow your papers?
EDIT: OH sorry, got that wrong... Thought your SIM is locked not your phone SIM-locked Confuusing

Hello,

The problem is, the SIM is locked by a provider from a other county...
Does someone know a way to unlock the device without paying more money then it is worth to?

Pretty sure your carrier will do it, although they may have some specific terms that have to be met (e.g. account in good standing, etc.). Otherwise I don't know of any way to unlock without going through a service like you mentioned.

Just call T-Mobile and tell them you're going out of the Country and need a sim unlock because you're planning to use a sim card from another "Country" and then after you get it just stick a different carrier sim card in the phone and it'll ask for the code.

T-mobile doesn't use codes on recent Samsung phones. There is a Device Unlock app on their firmware that will unlock the phone after their server whitelists you and you then request the unlock inside the app.

Thanks for that info I'll remember that I don't have T-Mobile so I didn't know that.
