I was browsing through the samsung forum and came across a post from coadyj
Re: samsung unlocking
these instrucions below i pasted from his post this is not my work
<<<<<<
1. Type *#06# on your phone and write down your IMEI (you'll need it
later) or get it from the back of your phone.
2. Put a simcard from another provider and power on your phone
3. At the "wrong card" message type: *2767*688YOURIMEI, for
example: *2767*68835363900065487#
(imei is 14 digits ignore the 3 digits after the slash "/")
4. Your phone will reboot and then your simcard from other provider will
work
--this 4 steps is for a temporary unlocking, when you power of your
phone
it'll be locked again, to permanently unlock it continue to step 5--
5. After your phone has rebooted on step 4, dont press any key or do
anything,
just type this: *0141# and hit the send button
6. A message will appear telling you that your phone is personalized
7. Shut off the phone and enter the SIM of yet another carrier.
8. At the "Enter SIM lock password" screen, enter eight zeros as in
00000000.
9. YOUR PHONE IS NOW UNLOCKED >>>>>>>>>>>>>
Ok i decided to try this on my new samsung e300 on orange i have tried all the other network cards as you do
but they were all locked out obviously
so i went from step 1 to step 4 and all happend as above then i decided not to turn the phone off to see if it
was only temporary unlocked i carried on and went to step 5
typed in *0141# and hit the send button
the phone said personalised
So i turned it off and back on with an o2 card it said enter password so i typed in the 8 zero's and it said
wrong card
so i then put the original orange sim back in and it asked for the password so i enterd the 8 zero's and again
it said wrong card ?
So i put a tmobile sim in as it shares the same network as virgin it booted up and asked for the password i
enterd 8 zeros and it logged on to tmobile
but every time you turned the phone off and back on you had to enter the 8 zeros in again to get it back on to
tmobile
Anyways i put the virgin sim back in and it boots up every time and loggs on to virgin without any problems
and the phone functions fully
So im guessing that you need to do the above steps that coadyj posted with the sim card in that you want to
unlock maybee ?????and personalize the phone with the desired sim card in
Anyways i hope this makes some sense and helps a few of you out i will leave the rest of the messing and
testing to the techie guys on here :-) lol
But this has worked 100% for me and im now enjoying full uninterupted service on virgin instead or orange
The phone was bought from the link in the uk and was locked to orange just incase anyone was wondering
Let us know if it works for you ?????
