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.

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.

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

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

Hi, is there any way, how to do it for free? My Friend wants this phone as a backup phone, but it is locked to a network he is not using anymore. I have tried a few sim unlock programes, but nothing worked. The phone is not worth much, so unlock for free or a bin. Pls help.

Hi Guys, i updated my CSC recently to see if i can get the wifi calling working on T-mobile but unfortunately after that my SIM is locked to carrier. I cannot use any SIM other than T-mobile, did you one faced this issues and have any solution. Please help
Just wanted to confirm that, if you were to put in an AT&T sim, the phone does not recognize the presence of a sim and asks you to insert a sim?
Have you tried changing the CSC back to the original?

If I use a non TMobile sim it is asking for sim unlock code. I don't have problem with TMobile sim
Thanks
Have you tried flashing the original CSC?
Have you contacted T-Mobile for an unlock code?

Have you tried contacting Samsung to see if they will give you a sim unlock code?
In Canada, Samsung was giving out unlock codes based on imei only.
