[Q] Could not unlock networK X10 - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have the code from the Previous Network Vodafone
Handset Unlock Procedure for IMEI: 012379000651194
Your unlock code is: 1162745809951001
Manufacturer/Model: SE_X10
Phone company say the have checked the code with Sony
Yet when I enter the code I get Could not unlock networK
My Service menu shows
(x) Network Unlimited
() ...
for all the other options

So you can't use another network sim card? My x10i was never sim locked bought it on 24month contract with orange UK when they first came out and I don't think they were locked then what does the service menu look like this is what it says on mine

So you pout the sim in and put the unlock code in and what does it say after that

No mine has an X next to Network but instead of a number like your example 5
mine has the word unlimited

Only thing I can suggest is trying to get it unlocked via a shop through the USB

Using a different carrier sim without unlocking

Has anyone tried to use a different carriers sim in the amaze without unlocking it?
I came to Mexico for vacation and bought a phone here to use while I was here..
I didn't unlock my amaze to work with differents sim cards so I thought it wouldn't work.. well one day I got curious and switched out the t-mobile sim for a telcel ( name of the cell company in Mexico ).
Waited for it to boot and to my surprise it works, it has 4g and all.
I was wondering if this has happened to anyone else?..
The phone is S-off btw..

I just bought one today, it's supposed to be unlocked, tried my tmobile sim but nothing,the Mobile Network box is greyed out, what to do?
Did you s-off your device it did you buy UT lie that? If you bought it lie that chances are it was unlocked by that person. If not you at 1 in a million

I'm the one and only owner, I s-off the phone myself, but never unlocked it due to that I don't travel much outside of the U.S.
Yea sms and mms work... Plus 4g speeds here are crazy fast...

Little question
I have an HTC amaze from T-mobile and put in a telcel sim card, i can make and receive calls but i still dont have any luck with the data, APN's already set up and nothing, are you sure that you didnt unlock and only are S-Off?
If you're unbranded, your unlocked! If you're T-mobile branded, you weren't supposed to be unlocked, unless the precious person unloxked it for you.

I have looked into this and seen a couple of methods but all i want is the unlock code.
is there a method and i dont mind paying a reasonable fee, but not to mob operator!
Why not request the unlock code from your network operator? It may be free.

It's only free (on some networks) if you've been with them on the same line for a long time.

Carrier unlock

Is there a way to carrier unlock the amaze without calling T-Mobile?
I called T-Mobile and they gave me the code but I put it in wrong and after one failed attempt you can't put it again.
What's weird though is that I went to mexico and inserted a foreign sim card and to my surprise my phone got service.

Hey Eduardo!
Well the best way (easiest) to unlock is to just call T-mobile and say that you're going to some foreign place like Brazil or Ecuador or something. If one rep refuses to unlock you just call again and repeat until someone gives you an unlock code lol. Just tell them you're going out of state and need an unlock code, they will give it to you 9/10 times anyway, so you shouldn't have much trouble.
The OTHER way is to do this. Right now it's in a gray area because of the stupid law banning unlocking (except by carrier), but the Amaze was released before the law came into play so I guess it avoids the law. Good luck!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1659430
Also, if you entered the code wrong, it's fine! It will still work anyway. :good:

I think you get 5 unlock attempts before it becomes hardlocked/frozen.

I'm going to update ALL of them now and put them in line with SS3.2. Time for full domination again lol.
I'm also working on a Sense 4 port and MIUI but it's harder.
But yeah good luck, I unlocked my S3 within the dialer. HTC can't be too hard either. :thumbup:

What does the spending limit have to do with unlocking the SIM? Sprint doesn't charge to unlock it.

Also, if the phone is not active on your account for at least 90 days (which is the problem for me)
and...
If you're out of contract...??? (yeah - the rep told me that because I was out of contract, they couldn't do it)
sprint told me the same thing

probably not, if going through Sprint, it'll only be unlocked for overseas SIMs, not domestic ones.

That's the process for the Note 2 and S3 that someone has changed the title of. The code they give doesn't work at all on the Note 3.

hi! I bought a Sprint Note 3 on Ebay. to make a long story short, phone is global. when dialing *#06#, it was giving me a MEID. it has a sim slot even tough it's with sprint witch is a cdma carrier. I called sprint and they give me a 6 digits code, telling me it's the unlock code. after a few research on google and messing around in the phone, I now get a IMEI number after dialing *#06#.
when dialing ##0011#, i see NETWORK: UNBLOCK. the phone work on the same frequncies as my carrier I'm trying to unlock the phone to. but I never found the key pad where to enter the unlock code to actually unlock the phone (supposed to restart the phone with the wrong sim card and a "please enter unlock code" prompt should appear, but not me). I used it to get in the data hidden menu (##3282#), and that it. my sim card does not work, and I'm out of options...
Somebody knows what to do?
