How do you "unlock" a phone?

stana · « **on:** 01/04/2008 17:51:12 »

After hours of toil searching the internet for a way to unlock my phone. All i got was 'Unlock your phone for $30 or links that didnt take me anywhere..

So, Does anybody have any ideas on how to unlock a:

LG Chocolate, On the Orange network?

Thanks

Heehee.. My sister has an LG chocolate.

I'm pretty sure it's not possible unless your a specialist.

Otherwise I would have bought an Iphone and unlocked it [

I did find a site.. But KG800 wasn't one of the available list of unlocking phones [

With the phone in standby, enter 2945#*7101# this will activate the extra menu>
then go:
Settings>Security>SimLock>Network select deactivate this is where you can enter your code

Now I just need to find the unlock code. *Sigh* LOL

There is no settings option on the ENG. Menu..

I think this is a Faker.. But I guess it's worth a try..

To Unlock KG800/LG Chocolate
1. Insert sim from the network that it is locked to.
2. Turn on phone
3. On home Screen, Slide up phone
4. Type 2945#*#
5. ENG. Mode menu should appear
6. Go Down to Factory Reset Select it, may take a few minutes to reset!!!!!
7. This will reset the phone back to before the Phone was locked to a network
8. The phone will automaticaly Restart(Note The Network Logo At start up will not change)
9. Now insert Any simcard(Not tested with 3 sims)and the phone should turn on normaly
10. The phone is now unlocked and you can customise the setting as you like.

What's an ENG?

Try typing the numbers..

stana · « **Reply #10 on:** 01/04/2008 18:25:19 »

ENG is the menu it goes to when i type the numbers.

Seany · « **Reply #11 on:** 01/04/2008 18:26:50 »

Try the second set of instructions.

stana · « **Reply #12 on:** 01/04/2008 18:27:47 »

I did. After i restored the settings. It just went back to the menu that was on show in the first place..

Seany · « **Reply #13 on:** 01/04/2008 18:29:08 »

So it didn't work eh.. [

Wait a few minutes, apparently it's meant to restart
Did it restart?

stana · « **Reply #14 on:** 01/04/2008 18:29:49 »

Seany · « **Reply #15 on:** 01/04/2008 18:32:21 »
