Hi there.
Ive flashed my Orange E650 with the Gonzo WM6.1 rom and its been 1000% successful from what I can tell.
However when I put my Vodafone SIM in it tells me
Network is locked. Please input unlock code.

Is there anyway to get around this without paying one of the websites to give you an unlock code? I have googled and searched these forums pretty extensively to no success.
try asking vodafone customer service and ask what is it. If you put ur sim in another phone it is the same?
Why would I ask Vodafone? :/
Ask Orange
its a brand new phone, wont they just tell me to piss off?
If your phone was SIM locked to orange before you flashed it, It will still be SIM locked after you flashed it.
Updating the OS does not remove the SIM lock.

If someone knows of a free way to do this they will be very popular

Why would I want to do that? The Orange SIM will work fine in it, but I want to use my Vodafone SIM.

The phone is locked by Orange so your Vodafone sim wont work in it, untill you simunlock the phone, to do so you will have to pay ( there is no free utility for VOX at the moment )
To SimUnlock VOX see this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355790

That is not true..
SPV-Services can do the trick for you..
You can find SPV-Services here.. :
http://www.spv-developers.com/forum/showthread.php?t=236
Try it out.. When i got my vox it was locked too AND application locked.. So i flashed a rom that was application unlocket and ran the SPV Services program to get rid of my sim lock.. You just have to be quick as the phone will ask you if you trust the provider of the software you are about to install, answer yes, but you won't have a lot of time, ofcouse you can just try it again.
SIM unlock using SPV-Services and app unlocked rom?

Has anyone else got this to work?
Everything else posted on the subject says SPV-Services doesn't work with the Vox/wm6. What rom did you use?

I've tried SPV-Services after getting the remove.cab from Orange (for removing the application lock), but it didn't SIM unlock my VOX...
Althou the same procedure did work with c550...
Flashed anothe ROM too, but the SPV_services keep giving me errors...

Orange UK can provide the unlockcode. Just call their customer service, I think they charge 20 pounds which is reasonable.

hello everyone,
of course im a total noob so i am in desperate need of your help.
i just bought an unlocked att htc inspire 4g from amazon and when i tried to use it with my carrier, i reside in argentina, it says "no service"
and i cant connect to my carrier. if i dont put my sim card it says " no sim card" but i put it in, it just stays in no service and doesnt ask me for any code to unlock it.
now i ve done some searching before posting and I've done the power, - volume thingie and my phone says s-off in the menu.
the phone's band matches the one in my country so thats not the issue.
how can i make this phone work so it can recognize the carrier?
hope sombody can give me a hand

Can't anybody help me? Please! I've search troughout the forum and couldn't find anything related...the phone says s-off rl when I enter bootloader but apparently it is not rooted since i tried to instal cynogenmod and was not able to, neither could I use clockworkmod? (Can't remember if that is the exact name...)
I could not rooot the device either with htcdev tool since I can't install the ruu and can't use the rom.zip file either so I can't go through with the rooting
I don't care too much about rooting anyway, but I thought that if I root the device I can change the radio frec and finally I can use my freaki phone
Help would really be apreciated since I'm really lost here
