Hello guys, i've just bought a UK Xperia Vodafone locked version.
I live in Greece, and i would like to unlock it so i can use the sim of my provider (Cosmote).
Is there any free way or i'll have to go to htccodes or pay here?

Did you buy it without a contract? They aren't usually locked from Vodafone UK? Mine isn't.
I'm not sure but maybe HardSPL unlocks?

O2 don't lock, T-mobile do. You can unlock for free, or pay £15 to tmobile (in the UK that is) after a month if you want to do it offically.
Hi,
i'm purchasing this device from a retailer, will be this unlocked? I need to use a vodafone sim with this..
If it's not, can it be easily unlocked?
thanks
It will be SIM free (unlocked) yes. I have a Vodafone SIM in mine.
Of the UK networks apparently only Orange have these exclusively to supply [for 3 months at least - although I dont think they have them in stores yet??] but I believe that they'll be very simple to unlock in any case.
TOPMAN!!!!

Ahh well that changes things ....
Could find someone in the US or UK to call TMO for you (works best if you tell them you bought the phone outright and are not a TMO customer)..
There are several on "Google" that say they unlock remotely for 20 to 40 $$ ..
Maybe someone here knows of a free one, but I don't , sorry ..
No free codes that i know of. There are threads on here that give links to sites they have used with success just search

If you don't have an active T-Mo account, they will not provide an unlock code. You will probably need to use something like this.

Dear All,
I am planning to get a Streak (UK version) unlocked
i would like to know what is the major difference between a locked and an unlocked version?
i just know that a locked version doesnt not support other networks (e.g. O2 Streak doesnt allow Vodafone and etc sim cards to work)
other than this, are there any other main differences?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
i am currently in Hong Kong, there is a Streak offer (O2 unlocked version) and i would like to get it this week or so...
i am just afraid that the "3G/Data/HSPA" etc will not work... so i would like to know the locked/unlocked differences
i hope everyone could help me out and welcome me to the Dell Streak family
thanks all
basically no.
that is the major difference.
unlocked: use on any network
sim only from o2/cpw locked to o2
unlocked: minus any bloatware that o2 may put on their version.

thanks for the reply, but let me get this straight...
so the unlocked version which i will be getting, i will be able to use ANY SIM card and use the 3G/Data/HSPA provided too, right?
just to confirm myself, thanks

Thanks for answering my question too - I want to use the Dell Streak satnav in Spain with a local SIM (unless O2 offers a sweet deal on roaming rates with its Telefonica parent?? But I rather doubt it).
no guarantees on 3g unless hong kong uses the same 3g band.
