SIM unlock Nokia Lumia 710?

---

Anyone knows of a good way to SIM unlock the Nokia 710 for free via an exploit or program?

It's literally too new, nowhere will be able to unlock it yet. Cellunlocker.net are due to have codes for the 710 within a couple weeks, but I reckon it will take even longer than this.

Guess I'll play the waiting game....

Dude, it won't take long, seriously. I'm going to email cellunlocker.net again tomorrow to see if there's any progress.

I think they (cellunlocker) can unlock it on some networks right now anyways, it's only the more stubborn ones (O2 UK) that are a bit more tricky and take longer. If you're in the states then check with them now as they might be able to do it.

I tried cellunlocker and they couldn't do my 710 on Vodafone, so gave me a refund.

Currently waiting on Vodafone to get an unlock code for me (it was the same price with them anyway). Apparently Vodafone just put the request in with Nokia themselves so should be more successful.

Vodafone issue N95 unlocking tutorial for Lumia 710 - FAIL!

OK! I unbelievably got my Lumia 710 unlock code from Vodafone with 8 hours (yes! I said 8 hours). GREAT!!
...until you try to put the code in the phone. The code issued uses an old Symbian style code starting with #pw+, however it is impossible to enter the pw+ symbols using the WP7 dialpad. And just make sure it is more difficult than ever they link to an N95 unlocking tutorial.

Tried:

• entering the code with the dial pad - no joy
• creating a contact with the unlock code as part of their details - no joy
• only entering the numerical parts of the code - no joy

No luck with these so I sent Vodafone email request to sort it out so I will keep you posted as to what's happening. That said, I'm not convinced they'll come back with anything as this seems to have been going on since December looking at some of the Nokia forums.

I tried putting in another network's SIM to trigger the 8 digit pin unlock prompt but strangely nothing happened. So either the Lumia 710 was shipped unlocked (again something I'd heard on the forums and a wasted £20) or the BT SIM card I used is accepted by the Vodafone networks as BT is an MVNO piggy-backing Vodafone.
I suspect the unlock codes issued are incorrect so trying to uses another more featured dialpad from the WP7 marketplace to enter the code would probably be pointless.

I suppose it's a question of sittingg this one out until WP7 - Vodafone - Nokia sort this out and start issuing 8 digit unlock codes.

AFAIK, you can check the unlock-state on the 800 via ##782#. You can try this on your phone as well.

That code doesn't work.

You have to hit call after entering it, then this (or similar) should appear:

I would appreciate help if anyone can I have jail broken the device the wp7 root tools is appearing but my sim is locked after jail breaking; however before it was working fine.
