Unlock Any Phone Free Inc k850i
Well hello there people i bet you are thinking yeah right free will believe it when i see it on some sort of software.
Wrong lets get to the point huh.
ok
First of all you will need to get you IMEI number to get this simply press *#06#
the network operator only needs the first 15 numbers
This has been done on my k850i locked to Vodafone.
If you are on Vodafone please follow net bit of information.
Call 191 from you hand set and select option 2 then option 1 this will put you through to customer services.
When you speak to them say you are going on holiday sometime in the next few months for the next 2 to 3 weeks and the contrary you are going to is not covered in there Vodafone passport or international call saver and you are going to buy a simcard when you get there as this will cost next to nothing and will be a lot cheaper to make and receive calls over there they don't know you are really not going there and you know this your self.
If they ask you where you are going say something like China, Canada, Egypt or some other place that's not listed in there Vodafone passport and say you are not interested in paying the rest of the world rates or call save rates

NUC number will be provided in email you get should be 16 numbers long
your code once emailed to you will be 16 numbers long.
1. Remove the Vodafone SIM from the handset. Replace the battery and switch on.
2. Move the jog dial left then press the * key twice and then move the jog dial left
<**< will need to do this quick and you will see the following
3. Network appears on screen 4.
Then select YES.
5. NCK will appear – key in NUC and Yes, phone should then be unlocked.
I asked them and said is this going to cost me anything they said it use to be £25 but its now done for free.
So looks like you can get phone unlocked for free and not haveing to use any sort of software or patch to get this done.
I am not sure if this is working on any other networks for free
Vodafone = Free Free Free Freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Orange = Not known as not tested
T-Mobile = Not known as not tested
O2 = Not known as not tested
Virgin = Not known as not tested
If you are saying anything other than going over seas or going on holiday IE you want to use your phone on some other network then they have every right to say no but if saying the above then you will get phone unlocked for free.
Please note i am unsure how long this will be for free as am sure it wont last so use the info above asap.
Please let me know if this worked for you and don't for get to leave some feedback :p ;)
ps if you are lucky then your network operator should send you an email with detailed information on what do with with what handset

Yeah like the guy you spoke to said they used to charge £2o but now they do it for free. You would only need to spin such a story if you on PAYT and handset is less than 12 months old.
But they couldn't supply me with the right NUC number or at least the assistant manager in Vodafone shop couldn't manage to unlock my K800i with the code she looked up.

Thanks man but I wouldn't fone them useless bunch of inbreds again if my life depended on it.:D
It was the halfwit in the Voda shop that wasted three of my attempts trying to unlock it. Then she had the hard neck to suggest I dont try and enter the code myself incase I bricked it.
I have unlocked it by cable and put the latest firmware on it and got rid of that useless horrible Voda crap.:cool:

Re: Unlock Any Phone Free Inc k850i
Uh... it's the law in UK that unlock codes must be provided free (or at nominal charge) after you have been with the network for 1 year, or you have prepaid 1 year "line rental".
Nothing new here.

Re: Unlock Any Phone Free Inc k850i
This is awesome for people in the UK
I tried this with Rogers in Canada and they basically told me to get lost... lol
They won't give you or even SELL you an unlock number even if you've been with them for years and your phone is WELL off contract...
