Unlocking???

HI, (in particular gaming guy)

Can anyone help me unlock my sony ericsson K608i which is locked to 3. I want to use it now with an 02 sim.

The IMEI is 35684200-028189-4-05

Cheers:confused:

    you mean unlock as if its blocked it wont work in this country as its stolen.

    if ya need unlocking best place to try is your market or a small unknown phone shop

    Don't think you can get a free solution for these, would need to be done by a cable (local phone shop?) or you can use online websites eg Mobile fun do it for £8.95, ive bought accessories from them before but never a unlocking code

    wouldn't really get you into trouble, but I guess it could be used by people who change the imei's on blocked phones.... ?

    could get you into trouble as you are in possesion of a stolen phone. as the stolen phone now has the same imea code as you even though yours is the legit one.

    stolen phone can only be identified through its imei, so how would the op get into trouble if his imei is used? his phone wont have been reported as stolen....

    there will be 2 phones with his IMEI maybe more so if one is reported stolen his phone will be barred and hes left with a stolent phone although his is the real one (if you know what i mean)
