I see it doesn't cover Turkey.

You unlock the phone to accept a different sim card you dont unlock to the country, I have been unlocking phones for years and all mine work all over the world ( Providing they are tri band ).
Best phones to unlock are Nokia

I'm absolutely useless where mobile phones or new technology is concerned :-\ However Marc at the meeting point sorted my phone out last year to reduce cost and use phone ok in Turkey :) i'm sure he'd help X

A little tip for you all if you have a nokia phone on a vodafone contract 9
times out of ten, they are already unlocked so save yourself a few bob and try it yourself, simply take out vodafone sim and replace with any other sim if phone comes up with sim card airtime provider you are unlocked simple

What is the IMEI number please?
-
That is the identification no found on the phone usually underneath the battery and also on the box that the phone came in its about 12 numbers long
Ron

Also if you press *#06# on your phone it displays the number
-
Hate to sound thick, but I have a Nokia 3410 on O2, will it need unlocking to accept Turkish sim? My son has a nokia 3510i, same question? I am scared of doing something to b*gger them up!

If successful you can buy me an efes or 2

Anyone know how to do it with a Sharp TM100. Its one of those slide up fronts?
Its not on the website mentioned earlier either.
legless, I also have a 3410, so if I can't get my Sharp one done, could you try to unlock my Nokia?
Trouble is, I cant email people via the link on their profile, so you would have to email me from mine and then I'll email you back if that makes sense?
Thanks,
Mark.

Can anyone tell me what to do after I enter IMEI number.
Got that far then website crashed. have been trying to get back to it for the past hour but keep getting the 'page cannot be displayed' message.
Thanks

Hi all you techies - call me cheapy harry if you want but what about Vodaphone pay as you go. Do I have to unlock it or do anything so that I can use a turkish sim card? Thanks
lindi :-\

Hey legless, I put the same sim card from my nokia in the samsung, does that mean it will already be unlocked....come on, you know you want to help me!! PLEEEEESE!
-
But what is the sim ? and what is the samsung locked to ?
If both phones are on the same network cause it will work you need to try different sims come on you know the score ! ! ! ! !
Lindi cause you need to unlock phone to take a Turkish Sim
Ron
-
AAAAaaargh you've confused me it doesn't take much!! My samsung has an O2 PAYG sim, the same one that was in my Nokia that you so kindly grovel grovel helped me with. So I think you are saying to try a different network card in the samsung and see if it works and if so it is unlocked??? If this is the case and even if it isn't (!) I'll try it tomorrow and report back, cheers m'dear

:D Thanks Shrek, but had a slight development...ordered 2 free sim cards off tinternet today, O2 PAYG on-line ones, usually a tenner. Top up ten pounds a month, get 300 free texts, AND you get to keep the tenner, they don't take it off your balance, so I may have to start again once they arrive!

And if you know the proper code you can get free text and talk for life 8) 8) 8) 8)

If you want to unlock your Nokia mobile phones from the network lock,I would suggest you to network unlock code from DELETED (http://http:DELETED[/url)
