As glhturbo had pointed out in another thread, cellunlock.net does it for $20/phone but with this code crackb50 you get 50% off. Worked great for my T-Mobile Sensation. Enjoy! =)
Get a friend who is a customer of the sensations native carrier to make a sim unlock request.

Hello, I am new here. I have been reading for days and days now, and I have come up with a question:
I have a brand new AT&T branded Tilt that I want to unlock. I found the Sim unlocker on the stickie. The question is this, AT&T has already provided me with the unlock code for my IMEI number, so if I just use their unlock code will it stay unlocked forever, even if I flash a new rom to the phone? Are there any benefits to using the XDA Sim unlocker versus the unlock code that AT&T provided to me?? Will I still be able to use the phone anywhere in the world with AT&T unlock code?
And what about those internet sites that claim to unlock your phone for a fee, do they work? Because a friend of mine wants to unlock as well, but is scared of the process found on XDA.
If the AT&T unlock code will work, how do I do it??
Thanks for any help.

The Unlock Code that AT&T gave you should work fine. Once you do a SIM unlock it be will be unlocked forever.
Thanks for the help! What about the internet sites that you pay for the unlock codes, do they work??
How do I use the AT&T unlock code?
Sorry, but I didn't find any info on the wiki about that.
You put in a non AT&T sim card and it will ask you for a code. You enter a valid code and you are unlocked.
All the Unlocker does is find your unlock code due to a hack on the radio.
I wouldn't be suprised if some of these sites that sell unlocking actually wouldn't just sell the instructions available free on this site.
Its very easy for your friend to unlock his device. Just follow the instructions. Now, don't hold be liable but I'd say there is a 99% change of the hack working. I did it fine. Took me maybe 30 mins to read and then follow instructions.
No Worry, i did the same thing and works..
Call AT&T explain that you need to use oversea SIM at different country while you travel as for business. they will ask your IEMI code and email unlock code within 3 business day, i just get mine and work perfectly without worrying screw up the radio cracking method and $$$ free.
Great this was very helpful. I am hoping to purcahse a Tilt from At&t on my US account then use my China Mobile sim while I am living here in China. The reason I want the Tilt is for the Chinese language software Pleco. How has everyones experience been with the stylus and screen on the Tilt. Are there any other At&t based devices that I should look into or wait for?

I used the free SIM unlocker here and it works great. I like the Tilt, stylus works fine, my finger - not so much lol. I'm looking into getting the Fuze.
Hello,
I am thinking of purchasing a used HTC Magic (Mytouch3g) form someone for 200. I live in the US, but Ido normally live in Asia. Can I unlock the Tmobile one to use elsewhere? (note. I do have Tmobile for now in the US, but I would like the option to switch). I used to have an HTC Touch diamond, so im not completely new at flashing. Anyways, will rooting and flashing allow me to switch networks?
Thanks
trev
No it wont. Flashing new roms has nothing to do with unlocking your phone.
than is there a way to unlock the phone?

Yes, some sites sell these unlock codes.
Look it up elsewhere, this is development forum.

I have already purchased unlock codes of two unlock code websites and both gave me the same unlock code which neither work,also i have been into a local mobile phone shop that unlocks phones but they were wanting to keep the phone for a week and charge me £35 . Can someone give me some advice for instance can i unlock it myself? if i root it will that unlock it? cheers in advance!!
Defy
Hi did you have any luck with the unlock
Hi there no i havent had any luck in unlocking the phone the i have been in touch with the ppl that sent me the unlock code and they say that the codes provided are 100% genuine so im all out of ideas.

Call T-Mobile
If the phone is no longer under contract (the old owner finished out the contract, or the phone was bought full price, or whatever) they are pretty helpful with unlocking them, at least in the USA.
agreed. call the carrier and if your nice and have been with the carrier long enough they usually can help you out.
My Defy came from Argentina... No chances to get an unlock code... Does anyone know another way to unlock Defy? Actually mine is just like an IPod

Most providers will give you unlock codes these days. In my experience they're normally free but you have to wait a few weeks to a month. (That may vary from provider to provider).
Try this link: http://www.motorola-unlocking.com/unlock_Motorola_i890.html
most phones with locked carrier sims can be unlocked with a simple unlock code that you enter when you place a "not allowed" SIM in the phone.
You do have to pay for this usually as the unlock companies have a database of codes that are linked to the IMEI number of the phone. I can't say that one unlock company is better than another but they all basically do the same thing
Sometimes if you are out of contract a carriers will provide the code free of charge or for a small fee as they are required to provide a way to unlock your phone
Thank you for all.
Maybe someone have a keygen or code maker..... because the payment code isn't for me.... Need more money))) XD
so it is illegal to carrier unlock any phones right now, i bought a one xl from ebay and forgot i need it unlock to use on tmobile. can i have someone outside of US to get the unlock code for me? will i get in the trouble this way too?

I would call the carrier first and request the unlock code explaining the situation. If they won't give it to you, get it carrier unlocked.
Tmobile should give it to you though as their TOS claims they will if it is paid off and not in contract.
