Hi,
I just bought a Sony Xperia X10 (orange phone). I am trying to get the phone to work on Vodafone Ireland.
I got the unlocking codes on a site. tried them the phone seemed to unlock.
When I power the device up it asks me to enter my pin as normal. Then I am propmted to enter a Network unlock pin. I have tried entering the Unlock code, my PIN, my unblock code. It keeps telling me that pin is wrong & for me to contact my network operator.
When using an orange SIM, phone works ok.
I presumed that the unlock code was wrong so I went to a shop to get the unlock code & they supplied me with code I got over the net.
Any one have this problem, or now to resolve it. I have all providers and repsonse are as follows:
Orange: You are not existing customer.... Cant help you
Vodafone Ireland: Contact orange or go to a shop to get it unlocked.
Internet site: Still awaiting reply
Any one got any ideas or solutions.
Thanks
what is the exact message that you get when you enter the unlocking code:
1- Wrong Code
Or
2- Sim Locked, Contact Opertor.
??!
If the phone tells you to contact the operator it means that the wrong unlock code was entered for more than 5 times... so maybe the guy you bought it from entered some unlock codes for fun?
The phone is now blocked and the right unlock code won't help you anymore... I have the same problem and as far as I know the only possibility is to go to the operator who locked the phone, in your case Orange. I'm sure they will help you, but they won't do it for free of course
same problem here but i buy from AT&T any unlocker avelable please help
Call att. I have never had a problem with them telling me the correct way to reset the phone for free and get the pulk code. I have read other posts that if you've had the phone for six months they will tell you the unlock code.

Does anyone know any of the dialer codes to check if my phone is network locked? I've tried the one that works in all other vibrant roms *#7465625#
This doesnt appear to work on cm7. Basically I used galaxy s unlock to unlock my phone and I am trying to find out if I was successful. If anyone can help I'd appreciate it. Is it even possible to unlock your phone on cm7?

Hi,
Only if you have sfs backup from before you blocked the PIN. You need to restore,
and then enter the valid PIN you got.

Hi,
I just been told in another forum that some networks provide PUK codes from
Nokia database. Maybe you can call the guys who sold you the PIN and ask for
PUK instead, not sure if it will work.

hello everyone,
been out of the scene for a while, and I just sold my dell streak, however, the new owner cannot use his new dell streak as its locked to AT&T. I obtained an unlock code from them by calling them, but the streak is on MIUI and the menu that ask for the unlock number does not come up, is there any other way to do this? do I have to flash an original android firmware to it? Thanks in advance.

you said it is sim unlocking... therefore (usually) it is phone related locking... not from at&t... there should be a menu for security > sim card lock
im just trying to unlock the phone to be used with TMobile, it is locked to AT&T not sure if it's phone or sim. AT&T gave me a code to unlock it but when I insert the sim the menu to unlock it doesn't pop up

open Settings > Security and search for something similar to sim card lock... you should get something from there...
if you get nothing.. most probably the phone is network locked... my phone is network unlocked where i can insert any sim... and it does have sim card lock in case there is someone else want to use the phone and use another sim card in it...
If you mean CARRIER unlocking and not the sim card itself, you have to install a stock rom. Sim unlocking isnt exactly something that can be easily tested on a custom rom, so that's your only reliable way of doing so.
If you mean the actual sim card itself, cant help ya
anyone care to share some rom links, all the ones ive tried dont work or a whole bunch of ads come up.

Hello Support,
I am in very bad situation.i bought Motorola Atrix MB860 4G from US via eBay and then I took it to India and when i use local sim card it asked me network unlock code. By mistake i gave more thn 10 times wrong code and now this phone is totally locked and not accepting correct code.
Please help me to unlock it,it very important and urgent for me.
I requested the unlock code from AT&T and they provided me the 8 digit code.
But meanwhile i tried some random unlock codes and because of that my mobile device is now not accepting correct unlock code that is provided by service provider.
I understand from AT&T that i exceed the limit for entering the correct code,So it seems hardware locked and can not reset the max number unsuccessful attempts only hardware manufacture can help me to reset that counter or unlock it for any other service provider.
I come to know from the internet that this is happening with many other mobile users who tried to connect to any other service providers and now their mobiles are now useless as devices are fully locked and not even access original service.
Hope i will get any positive reply else this device will be useless and i loose very important stuff from device.
