Can anyone confirm they've had a permanent unlock solution to this handset?
Unlocking clip will do the job, dont take it to a unlocking shop, buy the unlocking clip from here https://www.mobyrepairs.com and then re-sell the clip on ebay and get back what you paid for it. Free unlock that way0 -
Hi there,
Can anyone help me? I have a Nokia 1112 that I bought with a Tesco sim and I don't seem to be able to unlock it. I have looked at a couple of unlocking sites but they don't seem to unlock this model.
The IMEI is 35397401781320/4
Any help gratefully received!0 -
can only be unlocked by Virgin themselves or by a market stall/unlocking shopEx forum ambassador

Can someone explain how an unlocking clip works and would I be able to get one to unlock an LG Prada on T Mobile so I can use my Orange sim or should I take it to a shop. ThanksSallyD0

Thanks but I've managed to unlock my nokia. Used https://www.unlockitfree.com which provides lots of nokia unlocking codes and it worked a treat.[/URL] However I now need to buy a cheap pay as you go mobile for my son. He's considering the Acatel OT E230 which comes locked to Orange, or preferably the Alcatel OT E225 which comes locked to T-mobile. Unfortunately we live in a rural area only covered by o2 so these Alcatels would need to be unlocked so that they can be used with an o2 sim card. Do you know if either of these can be unlocked cheaply?JAYMARSH2005 wrote: »What network is the phone locked to and what is the imei number ?
Thanks again for taking the time to try to help, its much appreciated.
The IMEI number of the Alcatel OT E225 is 3528470102916050 -
Hi,
I have just purchased the alcatel e230 from Argos at £9.99 and had it unlocked via market stall for £10.
Not a bad phone either!
Cheers

Has anyone used "www.unlocktelecom.co.uk" to successfully (and cheaply) :money: obtain unlocking codes for Acatels?
