    No sorry, the cx65 cant be done for free either mate

    Oh well. I rang up orange to get it unlocked and they quoted me £20 so then I rang O2 to say I was leaving them to joined orange because my stupid new phone is locked to it and I didn't want to pay £20 to unlock it so they said they would put £10 towards it if I stayed with them so I said yes so now it is only costing me £10 but I am stuck with my Nokia 6020 until orange email me with an unlocking key:T

    Yes you can connect it to a computer to calculate the unlock from the imei, but that software plus the hardware cost money, so it is a lot cheaper to pay someone else £10 to do it for you.

    What software is used just out of curiousity? I assume the hardware is just a data cable?

    It is possible but not by free code,you would be best to take it to a unlocking shop as these are pretty tricky to unlock.

    No free unlock, needs to be unlocked with an unlocking clip, shop/market stall.
