Please vote in the poll above so we can establish which Samsung Galaxy S2s are locked or unlocked.

Please only vote if you bought your phone from O2.

Thanks!

Can someone confirm that you can see if the phone is unlocked on the spot when you go and buy from O2 in-store. As in you can open it and check.

I assume you can but I just want to make sure. This is my first time buying a phone in the UK and I inted to use on 3 or giffgaff depending on the quality (and reliaiblty) of the 3G signal.

Picked mine up from the Winchester store on PAYG about an hour ago, and is working perfectly with my Vodafone SIM.

Note that I put this SIM straight in, without ever switching it on with an O2 SIM -- not sure if it does something weird like lock itself to the first SIM that's ever in it?

Mines locked on contract . I put my tmob sim in straight away but it came up with request for code, then emergency calls only. Ive rung 02 already and requested unlock code - they say 7 to 10 working days. In no real rush, as I have my desire z :)

Well I got mine on d 27th at phones4u, but they only had 1 left and they still offered it to me on orange, vodaphone or o2. So I'm guessing it's unlocked. Haven't been able to check yet tho, I've only got orange sim cards in me gaff.

    My S2 O2 PAYG (ordered online) arrived today and was locked. Got an unlock code from MobileUnlocked eight minutes after the order was complete, and it is now running on a Three PAYG SIM I'm testing coverage with.

    My Giffgaff SIM worked without having to unlock the phone.
