hi, all you need to do is updating the dashboard (and firmware)--if the mobile partner software provided by the globe only support the globe's profile settings. you can find the update files from here.

note: the update process can only be done on a wind*ws machine.

after updating the dashboard (and firmware), simply change the sim-card with another operator's sim-card then connect your modem into your computer, a small box asking for the unlock code will appear. there, you can supply the unlock code, pressing the ok button, and all done.

i've tried this method on my e160g with success
