Hi,

I have a sim-locked t68m and my (previous) service provider gets me the unlock key for it (a 8-digit code). However I have no idea how to unlock it with the unlock key. When I put in the SIM-card, it only says "insert correct SIM card" and there's no where I could punch in the code.

Anyone can help me out on this? Thanks a lot.

press:
[left] [star] [star] [left]

Choose "Network"
You will be prompted for the unlock code
Enter unlock code
You should get a "Network Unlocked" message if everything went OK.
You might have to turn the phone off, and on again to get it to accept the SIM
If I had all the answers, I wouldn't have any questions.

Boon, no, each phone is different.

Igobetter, press left by moving the joystick left.

I have T-Mobile in the US and I want to unlock my phone so I can use it when I study abroad in Australia. What do you say to the Customer Service representative to get them to give you the unlock code?

Thanks

I also have a problem with my T300 Sony Ericcson Vodafone pay as you talk.
I bought the mobile phone in the UK, and I am now studying in Germany.
When I bought a new (pay as you talk) sim card (in Germany)... the phone won't allow me to use the new German card. :} as it is locked to other country sim cards.

I contacted Vodafone UK Cust. Serv. (or lack of Cust. Serv), they said that Vodafone Germany can unlock my phone at the shop where I bought my sim.
At Vodafone Germany, they said that I have to go back to the UK to get the phone unlocked.

This is a viscious circle of Customer service mayhem...can anyone tell me what is the code I need to enter or point me to where I can obtain the code without flying back to the UK!!!
In this wireless age, there must be an easier and cheaper (hopefully free) solution.
Cheers!
