Default Reg and Phone Unlock

Hello,
I want to unlock my phone because it is network locked.
I have the IMEI and the IMSI num, my phone is developper unlocked.
I will do because in France, there is a new law which permit to change operator without revocation fees due to a taxes increasing on the mobile bill.
But to have the unlock code free, you must wait 6 month, and the law is suitable only for 4 months.
I think that the unlock code is in the registry or you can revoke the lock by writing the registry.
Thanks.

There is lots of article in Google with those keywords : "Augmentation TVA Mobile"

In fact, the global taxes (called TVA) for mobile will grow 5.5% to 19.6% in February (the first).
So the government has decided to permit to leave freely your operator to choose another without pay any revocation fee.
We can benefit of this favor for 4 month, but I bought my Phone in December.
So I can change operator but I must pay to unlock it by the operator.

I already tested your solution but it's doesn't work because we must buy a 250$ box in addition of this software is detected as a virus.

Thank you, I received a letter from SFR too, but didn't pay attention to it

It seems you can even end your "contrat". But it seems we have no choice anyways, because with another operator, we are going to pay 19.6% TVA anyways!

But it's an argument to reduce the bill when you call revocation service.
If your phone is unlocked you can go out and I'm pretty sure that there will have a price war to grab clients of other operator.
I haven't received the letter for the moment (SFR too).

Ok, so the man asked for a solution to unlock his phone, and you all started talking about VAT and taxes in France...is this the way to help someone?

Ok if you want to unlock your phone, I have not found a free solution yet but for a cheap paid solution you can go to xtcclip . com website. The tool is simple and costs around 21 pounds (in euros is less). This is a fair solution as you can unlock an unlimited number of phones with that stuff.

The XTC is for HTC phones only. Great if you have one. Useless if you don't.
