Unlockable
May 16 2008, 10:22 AM EDT
I just wanted to back up the above story. I just called T-Mobile because I'm leaving the country for a year and T-Mobile in the past has told me that all I need to do is call their Customer Service to get my phone unlocked. So I called and they gave me a code (*#06#) and then the IME number appeared. When I gave the rep this number, he said "oh, you have a Sidekick. Those phones cannot be unlocked at all". So there you have it.

I don't advocate using third-party unlock solutions, mostly because of the chance of getting burned, but it's the only way to get an unlock. However, looking at cellularclinic.com's site, these guys seem a bit odd, because their site has rather poor English. Not really professional at all. Buyer Beware and all that.

"- please provide more details how unlocking burned your phone -First it is important to understand how "unlocking a phone" works. You have to send a code to the SIM card to release it from the Network it is normally running on. If you do not perform this step properly, you will fry the SIM card and in turn can cause the device not to recognize ANY SIM card when it is inserted. Do you find this valuable? |
