How I unlocked my Samsung SGH-Q105

[DarkAvenger]

First of all, I want to say thanks to all the people who posted useful stuff here. I couldn't have done it without you! Second of all a big F*** YOU to all the stupid telco's trying to LOCK the phones that we paid for!
How would you like to buy a car, and when you drive from the USA to Canada it stops working??? It wouldn't fly now, would it??

So, here's how I got the Q105 to unlock, following the various posts on this site, and mixing+matching codes:


1. Insert the SIM that your phone says is the "Wrong SIM" into the phone. A message saying "Wrong SIM Card" should appear on the screen. You can only make SOS calls at this point.
2. Enter in the phone *#9998*627837793# and wait until the error message ("Wrong Code") dissapears
3. Enter in the phone *#9998*3323#
4. You will now see the option "Exit" on the bottom side of the phone. Hit the soft key above it to exit.
5. Press the "7" key on the key pad. Your phone will now reboot. (Turn off & turn on automatically.)
6. After the phone turns back on it will be unlocked to the SIM card already in the phone (the one that was the "Wrong SIM"). This is just a temporary unlock.
7. To finish unlocking the phone do the following steps: Enter *0141# and
press the green CALL button as if you were calling the above number. A small box saying "Personalized" will now appear.
8. Turn off your phone take off the battery, insert a different SIM card (not the one called the "Wrong SIM")
9. When you turn on the phone it will ask you for a "SIM unlock code". Type in "00000000" or 8 zeros.
10. Press OK and now your phone is unlocked to all networks.

Notes: my cell was locked in to T-mobile USA. The "Wrong SIM" card I used was from Europe. It worked like a charm! Good luck to ya!
