Hello,

Few days ago i bought HTC At&t Tilt/8925 in USA. Now i'm at home in europe and need to unLock it.

Also find in Ebay lots, where people who have access to some databases sell "UNLOCK Code For *At&t/Cingular* Tilt/8925", but they need IMEI code of phone at first.

So my question is how to find IMEI phone on locked phone?

As i know i must type "*#06#", but how can i do it, if the only sreen that i can view is

Network is locked, please input unlock code.

To make an emergency call, type the emeregency number and tap emergency

And field under that, where i must type unlock code?



So where i must type "*#06#"? in the that field and click ok? I'm afraid, that phone can understand that it's unlock code (and as i know i cann't type more than 5 wrong codes )

Any advice will be appreciated

remove the battery and it should be listed on the phone.

i cann't type, as there is one field just for UNLOCK CODE.
Typing in this field will be understand, as UNLOCK CODE

remove the battery and it should be listed on the phone.
really :-)

thx

there are 3 codes:
P/n
IMEI
S/N
Waw .. thanks ... so it's the right IMEI code?

Btw, need you advice , does unclocking phone with just codes (as on ebay) work really?

A check this guys have nice rating, but as you know sometimes, just ratings don't mean anything.

Once again, thank you ChumleyEX !

Normally you are able to get a code from at&t to unlock it so I would pay for anything. Also I think you can use a method from this site to unlock.


I'm not sure if you're able to call at&t, but if you can, just call them and tell them you are traveling over seas and you need to unlock it.

Do not try this on 6.1! You will need to downgrade to 6.0

REMOVE YOUR SIM CARD!

That will stop the "Network Lock" Message from displaying.

Then you can get your IMEI from the Device Information Page or actually get into Windows Mobile and be able to use the Unlocker found here in the forums.

Is it mean, that at first i must downgrade it to 6.0, unlock and only after this upgrade to 6.1 ?
