Hi guys,
I bought my 02 xda or Wallaby in the UK and it ran beautifully using 02 as the phone network provider.
Now I live in Australia and I can't access the local OPTUS intel provider as the phone keeps asking me for a SIM Lock (unlock code) which I don;t have.
Can anyone help me overome this problem?
Thank you in advance.

Hello All,
I live in the Netherlands... and I got a HTC Vox (S710).
Ill soon get a new contract and a new phone (WhooWhoo a G1 yey!! ) anyway. I want to give my HTC Vox to my best friend. She lives in the United Kingdom though.. So is there a way to use a United Kingdom SIM card in it..? or does it have to do with something like the Signals it sends and that this lock is Hardware..? Since if this is software related I'd love to try stuff =)
Thanks already..
Cheers,
Robin
Hi I am after some help as i am new to unlocking and have a problem which I am not sure if it is something I have missed.
I have an old O2 XDA Mini S (Think that the HTC Wizard????) that I have unlocked using the lokiwiz2b then after this did not seem to work properly tried the 3a version.
The phone seems to be unlocked as I can put my tesco sim in it now and it is accepted but I can't seem to find the tesco's network (which is based on the O2 one). The phone can find O2 and Vodafone in the area but i cannot make calls on either but the Tesco network does not seem to be seen or known of by the phone? I can't even find it to select it manually?
Does anybody have any idea of how to select the Tesco's network or with tesco using the O2 network does anybody know if the phone should show as connected to O2 or tesco's on the screen? As the actual tescos phone which came with the sim shows Tescos on screen so i am assuming that the XDA with a tesco sim should show the same?
Any help greatly appreciated as I like my old XDA and if I could get it working with the Tescos sim it would be fantastic....
Hey guys i should get my new desire this friday i want to use my O2 uk sim in it so two questions will a vodaphone uk handset be sim locked? second will i need o2's setting to get the internet ect working if so can any help me out there? thanks in advance.
Vodafone don't SIM lock their phones anymore
Where did you get your vodafone handset? I got mine through CPW which is unlocked and unbranded, although I think phones on Vodafone in general are unlocked.
You will have to manually setup your internet with O2's settings.

20 pcm with free phone and car charger had a walk around my town today and only cpw had in stock @ £30 pcm so just to have a second hand set next to my HD2 was a sweet deal!

I bought an HTC Desire HD recently from the UK and it was sim free.
I live in Japan and I am a regular Softbank user with a different phone currently. I went to the softbank store today to get my old sim card changed over to the smart phone sim card, the guy said it would cost $25 to change to the smart phone sim.
But when he put it in to test it didnt get any network connection at all in my new Desire HD.
He did a check on the phone and he said it was because the phone is not from in Japan and that the Japanese sim cards at softbank are locked.
Is there any way to get my new UK Desire HD to work on Softbank Japan?
Can someone please help? Thank you.
The phone is already rooted and has Radio-off and S-off done. Don't know if that helps.
Anybody have any insite?
Please.
Hi samusx.
did you manage to get it to work?
I'm going to japan in a few weeks, and would like to use my dhd with a softbank SIM.
I had the same problem with my SE X10 before, but I thought it was something else.
I can't imagine a provider locking their sim cards to their phone? Is that even possible?
