Question Gsm sim unlock?????

Hi
I've read many threads but I'm a bit confused. On Droid 2 Global, We should get SIM UNLOCK CODE to make phone work overseas on GSM. But some phones with certain IMEIs couldn't be unlocked since the code were not correct. The fact that Verizon didn't know nor Moto!!!
I want to know if this problem exists for PHOTON? And if we need unlock codes for using GSM overseas? And where can we obtain them?

So there would be no problem using GSM. IS that OK even the device is BAD ESN?
And another questions are:
1. Is that OK with USSD and SMS delivery reports? (The problem with D2G)
2. Are All Photons could be unlocked (Boot loader wise)
3. Is its WiMAX could be used outside of US?

Many thanks

USSD does not work. Bad ESN should not matter, but is ethically questionable at best. 2.3.5 Photons and Electrifies (Except Electrifies rhat shipped with 2.3.5) cannot have their bootloaders unlocked.
