How to sim unlock?

[AlmightyCushion]

I'm getting a Nokia 6 tomorrow but it is going to be locked to a different network than I currently use so need to unlock it. There are plenty of sites that say they do it but I don't know if I can trust any of them. Is there any reliable and trustworthy sites that do this? I normally use ebay for unlock codes but I can't see anyone selling them for this.

From which region you are, and the phone is of which region..

The phone will be Irish and locked to the Three Ireland network.

Simple goto this thread

And follow the instructions carefully..
Note: after flashing Mena firmware, see if your phone supports your regions network or not, if yes then you can continue to install rest OTA according to the instructions

If it works then enjoy, if not, reply back with your feed back

I assume you mean this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-6/how-to/guide-oreo-follow-steps-t3723776 Your link just leads to the forum. If so, how does that let me use any sim in a locked phone. Don't you normally need an unlock code. If I can't use my sim in it, the phone is useless to me so I'm holding off buying it until I can confirm I can definitely get it unlocked.

Look if the chinese varient TA-1000 With manually USA varient TA-1003 installed and sold thousands of piece in India and working fine..
Though Indian and Chinese has different network region
So why this wont help you....

Now its up to you
You can give a try

If this works then give a feedback

I'm in exactly the same situation, Nokia 6 locked into Ireland's Three network.
Any advice on how to SIM unlock so it can be used on another network?

Alright so I have a Nokia 6 from 3 Ireland.
Iv spent I don't know how long trying to get an unlock code for the phone so I could use it on my travels. Everywhere I went looking for a code couldn't find me one.
So today I just threw in a different sim and low and behold! It syncs up to the new network no problem.. It was never sim locked to begin with.. or is it possible the recent oreo updates had something to do with it??

So folks! If you've got a Nokia 6 you want to try on a different network just try a sim from a different network and see what happens.. Maybe this is common knowledge? But I couldn't find any info anywhere!
