Cellular Phone Forum / Country Specific / Australian Group / April 2005Three Unlocking Handset - Perth
Hi Everyone, I was told there is a shop in Picadilly Arcade in Perth that will unlock your Three Handset for either $25 or $35, I can't remember which. does anyone know what shop this is. Cheers.

There are websites which tell you how to unlock phones yourself... what brand is it? I know Nokias are easy because you don't need to connect a cable to your computer to do it... not sure about other brands. It's an LG u8120 >> Hi Everyone, >> I was told there is a shop in Picadilly Arcade in Perth that will unlock [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > brand is it?

Normally the "fallback" GSM network if out of "Three" WCDMA coverage is Vodafone correct? With only one true 3G network in Australia I'm not sure I see what's going on here... Keith > What does unlocking a Three handset do for you, does that mean it will work > on all GSM carriers? In Australia, it means that it will work with a normal 2G SIM on any of Telstra, Vodafone or Optus's 2GSM networks, as well as the 3 USIM. > Normally the "fallback" GSM network if out of "Three" WCDMA coverage is > Vodafone correct? It's now Telstra. Although I don't think network locking necessarily has any impact on roaming - I've known handsets locked to UK networks to roam fine to Australian networks while using a UK SIM, but won't accept an Australian SIM. Analogous to Orange CDMA handsets that will roam to Telstra CDMA, but won't accept Telstra as the primary service. it means I can unlock the phone, disconnect from three, and get on another network without needing a new phone.

Not any more, its Telstra, but Voda will work till end of June or some such > With only one true 3G network in Australia I'm not sure I see what's going > on here... So you can use your handset permanently on a 2g net Cant you get the unlock code for free after you spend $195 of calls with 3 ? or has that changed now ? > Hi Everyone, > I was told there is a shop in Picadilly Arcade in Perth that will unlock [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > Cheers. > Ryan not too sure, could someone confirm this, is there a webpage for this?

I have a policy that I try to select companies that will have Australian support lines, even Diners have now given me an Aussie contact > yeah its called customer support. > [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] >>>> Cheers. >>>> Ryan I regret joining three the moment i called cusomter support.
