SX-56 AT&T service provider, Unlock question

I have an SX-56 on ATT service that I want to unlock so a friend of mine can use it on T-mobile USA. I upgraded the Windows OS to 2003 summer 2004 when Siemens was offering it on thier website.
I called ATT (now cingular) and they said they will not provide me with the unlock code and to call Siemens for the code. I called tech support at Siemens and they say call carrier (ATT). go figure. They got me with the 2year contract and a sim card id, whats the big deal about giving me the unlock code........
Anyway, found this website and the xdatools. went to the wallaby prompts and when I get to the ROM version the one I have is not listed, so I follow the prompts to the unlisted one and that leads me to the special ROM edition. Okay, that all being said.......I read where it says that the 3.17 ROM is for the PPC2002 version. Does this mean that it will not work with the OS2003 that I have currently installed and if not how do I reload the original PPC2002 that came on the unit new. I am new to all this but am learning so please be merciful if I have mis-stated some things here.
Will I need the ATT sim card in the phone to do all this?
What is the best way to go about unlocking the phone.
the ROM version is: A.30.09 ENG ROM date 01/01/04
the Radio version is: A.33.02
Protocol version: 1.3.3
Any help is much appreciated.
I'm new enough to be dangerous........
No hope for unlock Siemens SX-56 AT&T?
Da** it, you and I are in the same boat with AT&T & Siemens flip-flop game!
My phone is exactly as yours, but I didn't upgrade to 2003. When I do the same way to attempt to get it unlock by XDAtools and pick the T-moblie ROM version like you did, I recieved the message:" the ROM image that you are trying to upgrade is not compatible to your pocket PC. Your device infomation: ROM A.30. Your Upgrade info.: ROM 3.17. Please download the compatible ultility and try agian" And I couldn't find our compatible unlock A.30 version anywhere, either! I also did try the special_rom_1.2 and XDAUnlock, but no darn better news!!!!!!!!! I got the same error message for special_rom_1.2 and got "error getting unlock code" for XDAUnlock.exe.
Pls note: I still have the AT&T SIM card installed in SIM slot.
Any Siemens SX-56 unlock "guru" please help us out.

[Q] Radio Flash & Sim Unlock

Hello dear xda fellows
I bought a Bouygues Telecom (French provider) HTC desire in August 2010, and flashed it with :
ROM : Open Desire 4.10
Radio : 32.44
I called Bouygues Telecom to get a Sim Unlock Code, as my phone does not work with SFR. They told me my phone is already unlocked, which is possible as I got my phone at a shop which sells unlocked phones.
After doing some research I saw this HTC hero thread, which stands it can be a bug from using too recent radio.
Tried to flash with 32.43 but still the same : when I use SFR sim, I'm asked "Sim Network Unlock Code".
Any idea ? How can I be sure that my phone is actually blocked or not ?
Thank you very much for your help, xda is great.

Try using the sim unlock tool...a quick search should locate it.
That worked right away, amazing.
Cheers.

[Q] Unlock HOX for international carriers

Hi!
Im from Chile, South America and im going to Australia in a couple of days.
I want to unlock my HOX to use it there and in some websites they offer an "unlock code" base on the cellphone imei, carrier company and country, does it really work?
My HOX is a tegra 3, android 4.0.3, hboot 0.9, s-on, locked bootloader, stock ROM, Movistar carrier.
If that code Works and i unlocked my HOX to work on Telstra AU for example, if i want to load a custom ROM it will locked the cellphone again?
thanks in advance!

No if you flash or load a custom rom, your phone will not relock.

can someone help ME

I have a note10+ t-mobile carrier. I bought it in china and still living here. It works fine, but on android 9, one UI 1.5 SM-N975U, the phone keeps asking me for an update which I did once and blocked my sim card after, so I had to return it. They back for me android 9 . my question is if I want to flash my phone to another carrier, it should also be t-mobile or USA, and can I do it with an open carrier, which I can use with any sim card?
and before flashing, what the most important things, I have to be careful when it comes to firmware or the phone model?
if someone can share with me the link of firmware I can use with the newest android I can install that would be awesome
my CSC is: N975USQS2ASJ8
service provider SW ver
