Hi All,
I recently bought a G1 off ebay...its locked to T-Mobile. I knew that when I bought it, however i have tried people who supply unlock codes and they cannot find the code for it!
Its really frustrating me! Is there not another way around this? Surely one of you can work something out I've seen you all do amazing things!!!
All the best,
//Serg
I had a few come backs with no unlock codes available from internet unlock suppliers as well. Then came across a site that did actually supply the service it offered -and unlock code was sent to my email address within 10 minutes.
If you do not get any postive - or quick fix answers, I will PM you tonight when I get home - I do not have the site details here at the office
Good luck
PM me as well..
Thanks!
great thanks that is much appreciated!

Hey there guys. Please don't be angry for making another ****ty "how to unlock G1" thread. I wanted to post in the recent one, but i guess it got closed.
Well here is my question. I'm about to trade my TyTn II for G1. The problem is that the G1 is bought in Austria(T-Mobile) and i live in Slovenia. If i'm gonna call T-Mobile what should i say? My english isn't all that great, but i think i can handle it. The only problem is, if they are gonna speak German...
Lets say, they speak english. What should i say? I don't think you just say:" hey could you give me the code to unlock my G1?"
Maybe i'm a little annoying, but if there is anyone who is willing to help, i will be very grateful.

Think the policy is a lil different in other countries other than the US. We would normally say we are going out of the country so we need to unlock it to use an alternate sim. But in the UK they charge a fee unless you have been a customer for over a certain amount of time. I know its alot longer than the 90 days we have.
So there is no way to unlock it?
Edit: This is legit right? http://www.unlock-tmobileg1.com/
Cause if there isn't other way i'll just pay those 19€. That isn't so expensive.

My advice is buy one off eBay. Reasoning being, any website like that can make all the fake testimonies they want, and you could get screwed very easily. If you go to ebay you can choose a seller with good feedback who is clearly legit. I think I got mine from GSMcredits or something...

Thanks for the advice! That really helped me. I went to search over Ebay and found some interesting offers. And they are actually cheaper then the site i gave you link before!
Anyway, i think this is 100% legit, since this seller is very popular.

Calling T-Mobile only works if you are a current customer. If you aren't (and I assume that is the case) then find someone who is to call for you.

As long as they give you the correct code it will work on any G1, so you should be fine. That seller looks legit, due to the high rating too.

Thanks for the answer! I'm getting my G1 on Monday then!
Yay. I got my white G1 today and i bought a code of ebay from the guy mentioned few posts above. Payed 10€ and got the code within 15min. Phone is now unlocked and i can't be more satisfied! G1 is awesome
Sweet, I had to unlock mine the first week cuz tmobile gets bad service here. The first site you posted is where I got my code, so they are legit. And don't worry about rooting and flashing roms because it wont mess up your unlocked status.

Cool. Thanks for the info!
Just thought I'd add that I've (just) used the guy mentioned above (ebay profile link) to have my UK G1 unlocked and it worked just fine.
The code came within 10 minutes, tested and works OK.
Cheers,
Smiffy.
Hi all,
This is my first post, as I just got my hands on an HTC G1, but now need to unlock it to use with my provider (Telus in Canada).
If anyone could help out, or point me in the right direction, I would greatly appreciate it!
Looking forward to Android!!!!
Thanks in advance
I bought an unlock code just a few days ago off a seller on that famous e-auction site. 8 bucks. Everything done in an hour.

Can you send a link.
Thanks
Can anyone recommend somewhere to unlock the X8 without having to take out a bank loan please?
Everywhere I have found so far costs a lot of money!
Any help appreciated! Thanks.

If you can root it you can unlock too I think try to search in X10 forums not ahve big differences from x10 mini pro
Not every site does the X8 though even if they do the X10\mini. Maybe it's because it's a newer phone? $40 to unlock a phone is too much!

bitye are you sure you can unlock it if you root the system? my wild guess is that the network lock trigger must be somewhere within the system, or at least the system can access it, therefore it pops up. does anyone know where this file can be found and how to edit it?
i've been searching the hell out of forums and never found any info relating to that. please share
I had my X8 unlocked by http://www.htccode.com/, was unlocked within 10 mins of payment
what network was your phone locked to?
did they send you software to unlock your phone with or did you send imei and they sent you an unlock code to enter
my phone was origionally locked to o2 - UK
did they send you software to unlock your phone with or did you send imei and they sent you an unlock code to enter?
basically they send you the software for the phone, but they do remote session you for a min, was a bit dubious at first but all was good
i tried that through someone else but didnt work and said remote dongle server not working, were you given credits to unlock? if so do you know how many you had/used to unlock?
they dealt with the unlock remotely, I just sat and waited till it was completed
well its worth a go for the price.
but i do advise u wait till online supports online, it cost me $40.00 USD initially see here http://www.htccode.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=3160
were they online today when you did it then?
it isnt working for me but then i only paid 20$ because thats the link i had, do u reckon i need to pay another 20$ to have a total of 30 credits?
they were online the night i done it, sorry i should have said that sooner, erm i'd suggest messaging them regaurding that, i'm sure you would be able to get it unlocked with the additional $20 :\
anyone know what the hours are for the live support on htc code?
For anyone in the UK
$40.00 USD = £25.1969 GBP at time of posting...
£25.82 through paypal to be more precise.
Hehe I have no idea get it unlocked in the end?
yeah should have it unlocked tomorrow, they sent me all the remote software stuff and all the login details, i'll report back tomorrow.
Hi there,
First post so first up let me just say hey been lurking on here for awhile but never needed to post before! I seem to have had the worst luck ever, purchased two samsung phones first off a galaxy s2 off ebay which I was really looking forward to using and then an s8000 from cex which I wasn't looking forward to using so much. I've spent a lot of time unlocking and sim unlocking them only to find out they are both IMEI blocked, I've spent a lot of money on them and even when i've taken them into the operators they have been no help even going so far as suggesting I have stolen both of them. I don't really want to give up on either phone but spending £100 on a z3x box just for two phones is a bit much, so I wanted to know if there's anyone in london with a z3x box who would be willing to help me. I understand that it probably looks a bit dodgy asking on a new account like this but I can only assure you of my sincerity. I'll understand if no one is willing to help but if anyone is could they please get in touch with me.
Thanks for your time.
You need to get your money back from ebay and cex, shouldn't be a problem, always get imei no before buying, if they don't provide it, they are hiding something

Hi this has my head pickled
So I picked up this phone yesterday as mine broke
Its a decent phone I like it however I want too flash Havoc on too it,
Seems that the manufacturer has decided too stop giving out unlock codes for the boot loader
DC - unlocker is what I found my device is on the list of supported devices however its not in the list telling you how many credits you need too buy too unlock the bootloader which doesent exactly fill me with confidence..
Furthermore you can buy a 3 day license for DC unlocker which is like $50 dollars or something but obviously the above concerns me a little plus even if I was willing too take the chance I think 50 bucks for a 3 year old Phone that im gunna be using for only maybe a few months is a bit steep (Im a student)
So what im asking is this, Does anyone know of a better way or even better a free way of getting this damn code ? Tbh ive always begrudged paying for the privilage of modding a device ive already paid for however I accept reality
Or does anyone have a generator for the code perhaps I can paypal u for the code?
I dunno anyway here is my device details
Any help would be greatly apreciated..
There's a cheaper paid service that gives good result but I am unallowed to cite here due to XDA's forum policy. PM me for more info.
(@ moderators : it is okay to give that info in PM, isn't it ?)
