I was with the 3 network but then yesterday i changed to o2 to avail of their unlimited texts to any network offer. i then realised my phone was not unlocked and 3's offer to do it was far too expensive.

I have a Sony Ericsson K530i and would like it to be unlocked asap for as cheap as possible and wondering what my best option is. I would not to go anywhere (i.e. do it on my laptop).

Thanks in advance for any help.

Turbo/Rebel/X Etc Sims are the only possible way to unlock that model.

It's called the Sonim XP1. I can't find any info on unlocking it, so it may come not locked.

Well I can't find any info of people looking to unlock them on the unlocking forums I do be on, so I'm assuming they are not locked.

I'm in the middle of doing up a F.A.Q on mobile phone unlocking for the FAQ thread.

Could people please post up some questions here that may be asked?

TIA

need to buy SE W595 floral for my girlfriend. Want to use it with Vodafone but only O2, Meteor and 3 have it. Does it matter which one I'll take (harder, easier to unlock).

I have some NAC codes left to use from vodafone - will I be able to use it to unlock it then or does it has to be same network NAC to do it?? (added this part for UNLOCK FAQ possible questions as well.)

Best regards,
-=KaTHoR=-

No, just buy from the network which is has the best offer.

You can only use your Vodafone NAC codes to unlock Vodafone phones, and I think you'd have to spend €120+ on the account first.

Can anyone help me unlock a Nokia 6300? Or point me in the right direction?

Is there any web based way to do it? I dont really want to deal with Vodafone unless its a last resort?

I presume you have the phone awhile and have spent over €120 with them. Then you simply have to log in to 'My Vodafone' online and you should see your 'NAC' code which will unlock your phone.

Otherwise it will cost you to unlock it using other methods.
