Anyone got this from O2 UK can you confirm if this is locked to O2 ? Any way to unlock if so ?
O2 unlock
Hi
Yes it will be locked to O2 but if it's on contract you can unlock it for free using the my O2 app . Simply download it from the app store and then go to O2 website and sign up once you have done that login on the app and then click the burger menu button at top left and then click on device unlocking in the menu and then find the phone in the list and click unlock and then o2 will email and text you in 24- 48 hrs with unlock code .
Cheers
You won't be able to unlock the bootloader either, I got mine through CPW to get around the issue :good:

1. Get code from Orange. think this is £20
2. Pay imei-check to do
no other methods at present
for app unlocking, follow my post under monet/virgin lobster

Is it really worth it?

There are several locks on a device:
Application lock - this prevents that unsigned programs are run on from the operating system. This can be worked around and finally removed, but it seems peculiar for the Orange devices. You will usually need this for the subsequent items.
CID Lock - this prevents that only the firmware of the dedicated device can be loaded. Despite same HW, the SW of another device will not load. There are ways to work around this at no cost (keyword USPL or JumpSPL).
SIM Lock - this prevents that a SIM card of another operator can be used in the device. This cannot be worked around for the Vox, you need an "unlock service".
First try the original operator to provide you with that - you just get a code matching your IMEI.
Contact jockyw2001 in the related thread to supply an unlock code. The thread is this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355790. I think he also charges some minor amount - no clue how much, but less than pay-sites.
Cheapest pay site I found is http://www.imei-check.co.uk/e650_unlock.php. Have bought from them as well one time and this was very fast and smooth. You may get a free CID unlock automatically if I remember right - ask them.
Mind that the thread-pusher (sahaya) just uses his post for advertising the expensive service. I have seen the identical post in several forums.
Hi !!
If you need to get it SIM Unlocked...contact "Jockey"...you will find him in the forums.....he will give you a reasonable offer ( a reasonable price) to SIM Unlock your VOX.....I got it unlocked from Him.

Hi,
Is there any solution to unlock my T-mobile HTc HD7 for free ? There are indeed a lot of websites to provide this solution, but not for free unfortunately.
Many thanks in advance!

I'd like to know as well...I've mostly used CDMA devices so they were always kind of locked I guess...
if you got it subsidized through tmous, they make you wait 60days usually for a free unlock code. Why shouldn't they? If you bought the device subsidized, they have a right to make that money back.
If you bought it outright, they should just give it to you.
I'm talking about buying it outright...
Has anyone come up with a solution to this yet? I am interested in going out of the country in the next month and would like to slip in another sim card while I am out. Thanks! 8)
Riiight.
You just forked out for a really expensive piece of kit. Is it really going to break the bank to pay 19 euros to unlock it?
If you're going to buy the HD7 from T-Mobile at full price you can ask T-Mobile for the unlock code. You just have to fax them the receipt.
Hey guys i'm from Malaysia n i just purchased a HTC HD 7.Wanted to know if the unlock option is available here for free..Thanks
Why would everyone talk about imei unlock sites and 19 bucks, when there is a for-free method? try a search..

I just got mine a few days ago and requested a code using a friends prepaid account. I did that so that they would process it as if I bought it flat out and process it for me. Expecting results tomorrow and will keep posted
Edit: code came in this morning. Whole process took less than 24 hours. Now using my hd7 on att's network.
Also needing an unlock method that is free or very cheap and doesn't require me to ask Tmobile for it.
Thanks.
I am not aware of any sites that work to SIM unlok your phone. What I can contribute is that if you SIM unlock your HD7 through T-Mobile, you will need to have another provider's SIM to complete the process.

just flash a rom
Sent from my 7 Trophy using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
That will not SIM unlock the phone.

Hi
Anyone successfully unlocked their Desire S to use with a different sim card?
me - is the same like any other htc. I bought the code from htcimeiunlock.com
I have a Desire S from Austria and it didn't work by code because the provider (T-Mobile) changed it!
There must be a free way to do this, surely?
dont think so, need either paid for unlock code or xtc clip as i am aware.
just a heads up....if you are a customer of o2...they will unlock the phone for you free of charge...i just purchased this phone off them and had it unlocked

Hey!
I had the same problem! I have a Desire S that was branded and locked by T-Mobile Austria. After searching all over the internet i got a good adress in Schwechat. The guy there unlocked my Desire S in 10 mins. Just look it up in the forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1043316!

Hi all,
Looking for a cheap method to unlock a Z3. The phone is locked to O2 network and since I had bought it on Gumtree I can't request the unlock directly from O2. I found a few places online but they charge $30 the least.
Have O2 actually told you that they will not unlock? As I got my Z1 unlocked by them for free and I got that second hand from CEX. Just used O2's online system and got an email from them after a couple of days. (I believe you do have to be an O2 customer though)
If your in contract with O2 regardless of the phone they will unlock it free of its a o2 phone
Sent from my D6603 using XDA Free mobile app
I got a z3 on o2 contract via mobiles.co.uk and I have no sim lock or branding?
Thanks everyone for the replies. In the end I asked a friend who is on O2 to request the unlock and the phone is now unlocked.

Good to hear that - also, I'm a bit surprised that they refused to do it in the first place. European law states that they absolutely have to do it after 30 days - I don't think that the fact who is requesting it matters.
Is it possible to unlock the phone by flashing a different ROM?
If I put different SIM I don't get any options to put the SIM Unlock Code
Are there any paid services that can unlock it??

Have a look here how to enter the unlock code:
Unlock.ie - Mobile Phone Unlocking Codes Ireland
This website will generate mobile phone unlock codes for all mobile networks in Ireland including meteor, EIR, three,vodafone and Tesco , ID Mobile Ireland, , Lycamobile, Virgin Media, GoMo , Giff Gaff UK and also for networks abroad, the codes are emailed to customers in a 24 - 48 hour time...
www.myphoneunlockcode.com
You should get the unlock code from your original service provider, as soon as you fulfilled the contract (used it for the minimum time period).
There are some (paid) unlock "services", but nobody can guarantee that they are reliable.
