Samsung Preston GT-S5603T Unlock - GSM-Forum

dixie01 · 07-28-2011, 05:54

Hi Guys,
I live in Australia and purchased a new Samsung Preston, which unfortunately is locked to the Telstra Next G network.

I would like to use a Simm from the Virgin Network, but the phone won't allow activation of the new Simm.

Can anyone advise me, how to unlock the phone, or have an unlock code,
I don't mind paying for it, if I have to?

This is so frustrating, as you buy the phone outright, but then are locked into one service provider

I would appreciate any assistance or advice on this matter.

Thanks and Regards.
