How can i find which carrier my phone is locked to by imei for GT-I9300? Is there any online database?

I have an Audiovox Harrier, from a Canadian provider, Telus. I have a GSM carrier, and there are no real ROM updates for this, so I' probably pass it on, but I was unable to find any information regarding whther these are ever locked to carriers.
Anyone know? Or is there a way for me to find out if it's locked w/o needing to get a service. And if it were locked, would it be hard to unlock it?
Forgive me, I couldnt find the answer to this question.
If it doesnt, what is the best way to do it!
Thanks!
Are you looking to SIM unlock your phone?

Yes, sorry
There are various sites that will give you the unlock code which is based on your IMEI number, but you shoudl be able to contact the carrier that branded the device and ask them for the unlock code. Then just put the SIM card you want to use in the phone and turn it on, you will get a Network is locked message with a box for you to enter the unlock code you got from the branded carrier.

I havent been able to get an unlock code since the 90's - I use Tmobile and they wouldnt even consider doing it.
If you are unable to obtain the unlock code from T-Mobile then you may want to check this thread:

I bought the phone from craigslist and it turns out I can't use it here because its blacklisted. I want to unlock it using cellunlocker website and send it to the philippines. Will it work? Is my phone unlockable and not region locked?
You can unlock it and they should be able to use it as long as the radio bands are supported and the carrier there doesn't follow the us blacklist
Hi guys,
I'm trying to sim unlock my phone to use with a different sim card in Europe. Currently I have the AT&T version of the phone. I am S-Off and I have used SuperCID. Unfortunately, I tried on multiple sites to buy a code to unlock my phone (related to my IMEI number). However, every site keeps telling me that they cannot find a code for my device. I checked and my IMEI does not appear to be blacklisted. What can I do now?
Thanks,
Bought a D851 and when I go to SIM unlock process and I tap Service Provider Lock I get a message "Your phone is not personalized." Will a custom ROM carrier unlock a phone? I can enter a SIM network unlock PIN however.
No. You would still have to get it unlocked by T-Mobile.
OK. Thank you.
