Positive it is T-Mobile Ok, even thou it pops up T-Mobile Meteor in Ireland, but I'm sure tis just bouncing off the Meteor network. How do I try it without a sim, just says insert sim?

You can still enter code with a sim

When phone says Insert Sim Card

Hitting the * key multiple times will give you the *, p, w and + characters, then enter the numbers (no spaces, they are only there to make it easier to read) and finally the # button

Thanks for bearing with me. Yeah can enter the code with no Sim, but when I do there is no option to continure, that is I enter the code and there is no enter button or anything like that.

No, make sure you have the all the characters entered, i.e. #pw+ at the start followed by all digits without spaces and ending in #.

if it doesn't do anything with no sim in, try putting a foreign sim in (as in one its not locked to). it'll give you the option to undo the lock. enter it there

I found the Crux calculator, but it doesn't seem to be setup for the 6230i - anyone know where I could find a code calculator to work with the i, please?

I just got a Motorola L6. Anyone who has a soft to generate unlock codes or knows a place where they would do it for cheap in Dublin ?

Cheers !

Only your operator can supply the codes, plus the L6 is not an easy phone to unlock as it has to be disassembled to enable access to a test point on the motherboard

OK thanks

I am French and in France the operators have to give you the unlock code for free after 6 months. Is there something like that in Ireland?

Depends on the operator, if you are pre pay you have to top up by a certain amount before they will give you the code, if you are billpay you normally get a code quickly (the exception is 3)

Thanks ... I'm pre pay with Meteor, I will ask them about this sometimes next week.

Edit: I was just on the phone with Meteor's customer service, and they give for free as soon as you have toped up by €120.

No BB5 refers to Nokia, however the Sharp 550SH can only be unlocked by Vodafone at the moment

Can a 3-branded Sony Ericsson K608i be unlocked? Also, is it possible to stick generic firmware on it so I can manually select network?
