I have a 2008 sidekick that used to have t-mobile service. I now need it for at&t service but I have to have a unlock code. What would that unlock code be?
You can unlock it by flashing your mobile if your mobile is a CDMA mobile... The procedure for flashing your mobile is in the link below http://hubpages.com/hub/How-to-Flash-your-cell-phone It has an video explanation.
If your mobile is not an CDMA mobile , you can get the network unlock code(NCK) by just contacting the current network provider customer caredepartment.It is free of cost.
The restriction code can be got from your old service provider..This restriction code is kept to prevent someone who stole the mobile from using it with another provider...
They will have a security check done with your date of birth etc..to verify whether you are the exact owner of the phone..
After that they will provide you the restriction code to unlock it and use it with another service provider..
It is all free of cost donot pay anyone for this seeing some advertisement over internet . That is all fake ads.
