Hi Folks,
one of my colleague have xperia xz carrier locked and he had have travel to another country for some months but unfortunately the network his phone is locked is not available in that country he is going to so is there any way to run other networks on this phone?
he told me he already tried to contact with service center but xperia service center isn't that good and they failed to help him so please tell me any solution if there is to unlock XZ?
well there are 2 recommended methods which you can use to get your phone unlocked.
1 - Visiting Xperia Service Center and explaining them complete issue I'm sure they are going to assist you in this issue and I'm pretty sure they will resolve this issue.
2 - If you don't have any Xperia service center near you or they failed to help you then there is another safe solution is to get your phone unlock by any unlocking service provider such as safeunlockcode the one I know, I used safeunlockcode to unlock my galaxy s6 edge plus and i got my phone safely unlock so i can recommend you the only one I have tried. but you can ask other members or search on google you will find many other.
all you have to do order your networking unlocking code from any service provider and they will email you unlock code with complete guide to use that code.
I suggest you to try live customer support service of unlocking service provider and tell them your phone and model before creating an order that would be helpful more.
Best of luck.
Happy Unlocking

I am about to buy an unwanted contract upgrade Z3 but it is locked to another network. If I unlock it would this mean the bootloader is unlocked or not?
I do not want to loose the DRM protected camera features and the sellers network is refusing to give him the unlock code until he has had the phone for 6 (!) months.
The SIM unlock code will not touch the bootloader so your DRM keys will still be intact.

And using one of the paid unlock code services online is possible with the Z3?
I was under the impression that newer phones could not be unlocked this way and had to be rooted.
Root has nothing to do with SIM lock.
Usually the code works the same way whether it is obtained from the operator or a separate online service. However there is normally a delay from when the device is released and when unlock codes from online services become available. So I cannot say if they have them available for the Z3 yet.
As long as you use one of the reputable online services you should be fine as they will only advertise it if it is available.

You can use SIM unlock codes on network locked phones straight from the shop - so no rooting or anything needs to be involved. You just insert a different SIM, then an option should come up to insert the SIM unlock code.
It gets more difficult to find exploits for rooting newer phones without unlocking the bootloader. But that is a separate issue.
Hope that helps.
You are confusing two different things.
If your phone is SIM locked, you'll only be able to use it under whatever company's network it is locked to. It doesn't make a difference whether it's rooted or not or whether the bootloader is unlocked or not.
You can probably unlock the SIM lock through a paid service (IMEI unlocking) although with newer phones is a little harder to find a service that will do it.
Look at several unlocking services (there are many online) to see if they can unlock that phone before you make the purchase.
Brilliant. Thanks for the help!
Anyone care to recommend a good online service to use?
The carrier will do it for free usually. Find someone who currently has a subscription
They said it would be 21 days before they would release the code for some reason. I've used a paid online service although even they ae saying 7 days.

Real delivery time for Sony codes from 3rd party service is 3-7 days. These 3rd party unlock codes come from manufacturer (Sony) and they support all Sony models. No matter if the model is just released etc. If you are using good supplier with history and your phone has at least 2 attempts left to type unlock code (is not hard locked) it's very safe process. Good luck.
Not asking for code
I have a brand new Z3 locked to T-Mobile.
When I insert my own sim, it does'nt ask for unlock code. It also says at the top of the notification bar that the phone is network locked and I can only make emergency calls.
Can you please help me on how to get the phone to ask for an unlock code so that I can enter one and unlock the phone.
Thank you.
Device unlock apk.
Do you have that in your app drawer?.
If you don't go look in the mods n apps section I just posted a link to the app you need. There is no way to make the t-mobile D6616 ask for an unlock code. At least no way I found. T-mobile r jerks.
Edit
Here's the link

Dear imprezif,
I have the app and tried getting an unlock done through it. I get the message this device is not eligible for unlock, contact T-Mobile for device unlock eligibility.
You are right about T-Mobile though!
Thank you for your response and I will keep trying...

For Device Unlock you need to have service for 90+ days. That's how that works. If you want an eBay service or something. honestly just find a unlocking service with good reviews but you've been warned that unlocking that way isn't official and I don't recommend it. With that said you can check out rugitin who unlocks the phone: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Metro-PCS-A...513358?hash=item33ad4810ce:g:xBAAAOSwZVhWS-sG
Remember unlocking like this isn't legit or official in anyway but if you don't want to wait 90 days with active service than this is your only option.

Is it possible to unlock the z3 xperia so that it can be used in other countries/mobile service providers ?
I have found sites online that offer a unlock code that you need to buy. just seeing if it's possible to do myself.
In theory Yes you can do it. It requires a tweak to remove the sim restriction so you can use other but you may be affected by LTE connectivity. Check the Z3V form to see
I am getting a xperia xa for my daughter but it is on the wrong carrier (2degrees NZ). Is there any free way to carrier unlock it?
The only free way to SIM unlock your Sony is by contacting your carrier and asking them to remove the network unlock enforced on your phone.
If they do not agree and they don't unlock your phone, you will have to pay for one type of service or another to unlock your phone, either a local phone repair shop or online unlock code provider.
Hello!
A friend came back (to Greece) from England with a Sony Xperia E5 (F3111) which was registered on the Ο2 network. While still in England, she tried to insert the Greek network SIM number but she was asked for an unlock code. She went to a cell-store in London and the assistant told her that she would receive the unlock code in about 15 days (which have gone by and she hasn't). Now she is back in Greece and we ran the procedure described by O2 in their site but they say it will take another month or so for the code.
Is there any other possible way to unlock the phone? We no longer trust those ''unlocking sites'', since my friend has already paid some money with no results?
Please hide (edit and delete) your phone's IMEI. You are not doing any service posting the IMEI. better to keep it secure and hidden.
Have you guys contacted O2 for the unlock code?

Thank you, of course we did but they said it could take more than a month. Eventually my friend did the job via some American unlocking site...
