Be carefull if you enter too many codes it can damage the phone also if your phone was a Voda PAYT they have a second lock on them which is called a GID1 lock.

Unlocking mobiles is easy if you have a Virgin Mobile & wont cost you anything cos as long as you have spent £30 on calls from your mobile ( which you get £35 free calls when you buy one) ring them up & they unlock for you.This is a system account and does not represent a real person.

My has just spent her hard earned pocket money on a new picture/video phone with '3' network. Un-know to her when she bought it, she has to put in £15+ a month to keep this phone going. Is it possible to un-lock this phone & use a different sim-card? PLZ HELP as she is so disappointed as she wont be able to afford to use it once her £15 runs out.
