Hi,
i bought my Athena in a T-Mobile Shop (Germany) without a contract. Thus I got the unlock code for free. I sent a copy of my bill to a fax number I got from the T-Mobile hotline. After they checked my bill they send me the code via e-Mail.
Thank you for your answer
Why pay for unlock codes for athena? you can use the unlocker here and get it done free

Ladies and Gents,
I have an T- Mobile MDA Pro for sale, brand new, boxed. As i already have an EXEC, this phone is up for sale.
Please PM me if you are interested
It is listed on ebay, http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=9126315634&rd=1&sspagename=STRK:MESE:IT&rd=1
I am willing to end the auction early for 375pounds + 11.99 Shipping.
Cheers,
You really should add the fact that whoever buys it will need to have a t-mobile sim to use it since it can't be unlocked at present.
thanks for that shuflie!
can they not be unlocked at all? i'm so used to popping different sim's in my exec.
cheers,
Adam
They can, but it costs 100 euros with t-mobile
unlocking the mda pro
after you have paid the 1st months invoice, you can ask for the unlock code from T-Mobile UK - if you got it from them. Cost me 20gbp ISTR
Did they let you do that without paying off the rest of your contract? Very nice of whoever it was that gave you the unlock code but I've seen stories on here of others that have tried but couldn't get the unlock without canceling their contract and paying off the remainder of it.
adamchahl: If you can do this without having to pay of your contract it would probably increase the value of your MDA pro to be able to say it was unlocked in your auction.
Yeah, guess its worth a try, i will ring t-mobile tommorrow.
Will let you know how i get on.
Thanks,
nope, did not have to pay for the rest of the contract.
Contact T-Mobile customer services. Explain that you want to transfer your numbers from your old (voda/orange) sim to your shiny new mda pro. They will add the cost of the handling fee to your next bill. You tell them your imei number. Unlock code arrived a week later.
Note you get a 10 digit number, prefixed by two zeros and then eight numbers. Just enter the eight numbers, leaving out the first two zeros.
Worked a treat. ABSOLUTELY ZERO HASSLE.
T-Mobile UK 18 month contract phone ... still got my contract, 100 minutes a month and 40Mb a month data. Very happy with the service.
T-Mobile quoted my £15 to unlock the MDA Pro, however they mentioned that it can take up to 28 days for the code to come from HTC.
I will be more than willing to supply this unlock code for free to any purchesor when it arrives, so the phone will be unlocked.
I realise that there's a huge element of trust with doing things that way, so if it doesnt sell, i will just put it up for sale when the code comes through!
Cheers for your help!
Hi,
I have an xda 2s which I would like to unlock to tmobile pre pay network.
However, I am only being given option of pay monthly.
I have unlocked the phone and am receiving a network signal from tmobile.
Is there a program i can run to remove this or do I have to go out and buy an pay monthly sim.
After all the effort of unlocking it aswell, when I could have just bought an 02 sim!!!
02 say that the xda2 is only pay monthly, are they right?
Grrrr
Help please.
Thanks in advance...
Ive got an extra Wing I want to use on Cingular. Anyway to sim unlock this thing easily?
You can just call TMobile Customer service (611) and request the unlocking code and procedure. They will send it to you as long as you have been with them for awhile. Just tell th e CS you need to travel overseas.
http://cgi.ebay.com/UNLOCK-T-MOBILE...ryZ43312QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
here is a $25 unlock offer
actually you dont have to be a tmobile customer. all you have to do is buy the phone. its stated under the DRMA(digital rights millenium act) that they have to unlock the phone at the customers request.
So how can they enforce a 90 day minimum wait after start of contract?
Or can they?
T-Mobile unlocked
I called T-Mobile yesterday, asked them to unlock my Wing. They took my phone info (IMEI) and today I got an email with the unlock code. Just put in a Cingular Sim put the code and ready to go. the best way to do it. I also have a T-mobile MDA and because I was willing to do testing with this device I used the steps to unlocked in Wizards forums. It worked excellent...
Just call T-mobile...The best way to go.
AT&T gives subsidy codes over the phone.. T-Mobile has a 24 turn around time.. That's what I'm trying to figure out why
My relative was told to wait 90 days, no exceptions...
An alternative is :
www.imei-check.co.uk
I've heard mixed reviews about that site ... so use at your own risk.
The link from ebay is flaunting a much lower price.
Anyone try them yet? Any info? Would really be a pain to wait 3 month...

I'm sorry but that is completely wrong.
Have you used this item on Ebay? Did it well ?
Wind didn't allow an unlock, a 30 dollar service was used...
Not sure which one...
I just sim unlocked my wing. I called about it on Sunday and I got the unlock code on Wednesday (I got the confirmation email on Monday, but it said they had to wait for HTC).
i have a friend at vodafone romania and he told me that its kinda tricky to unlock the phone to use other operators (Orange Ro, Cosmote )
the thing is i want to buy a htc magic but us Orange cuz the internet is cheaper 3,5 Euros unlimited traffic they say
so how can i unlock it for free?
you can NOT unlock it for free.
according to that tricky method your friend mentioned: all the trick is that you have to pay for the unlocking code ...
umm yea well its a thread here with imei code unlock but my question is , with that code can i unlock vodafone romania htc? tnx
you can ask for unlock code to orange if you bought you're phone from them. they have to give it to you by european laws. i got my unlock code from vdf because i have a price plane from them.
Hi Saiuz,
Did you buy your HTC Magic from them with a service plan? Did they charge you for the unlock? Looking at their webpage, they say that the charge is 50 euros before the service plan ends (2 years in my case), or 10 euros after this period.
Thanks,
Cosmin
I have unlocked a HTC Magic from Vodafone (din Romania ) using fastgsm.com.
http://www.fastgsm.com/en/htc/htc/htc-magic/network-unlock-code
I am very satisfied with their services.
You need to have a paypal verified account in order to pay for the sim unlock code. After you pay you'll get the code in your website account(it takes some minutes). The price is $20.
I have googled many days for alternatives or unlock codes generators. Simply there's no other or free method available yet.
Bafta baieti!

some one only sold 15USD......
Hi Everyone,
How can I unlock my AT&T Samsung Focus for free?
Thanks.
not possible yet. have to fork out $$
Ok , I want to get it for some money and found someone on ebay that the people are saying he is guaranteed,
The only problem is that he requires a paypal money transfer and I don't have and my country is not eligable to have.
I live in Egypt but I'm still in the US and can return the device.
Should I just return it back?
get some US relative/friend to pay on your behalf for the ebay unlock code using their paypal account and just pay them cash $$$. you get your unlock code in their paypal registered email and a brilliant windows phone 7 device that is un matched.
Free unlock is not possible to get for the latest Phone,So you need to pay for it...You can get the paid unlock code from here Mobileunlocksolutions.com and unlock it from Network Lock.
Original phone owner can call AT&T to ask for the unlock code as "he/she will be traveling abroad". The request has to be done by the original owner (I'm assuming you're not, you bought the phone from the original owner). AT&T will provide it for free in some cases.
