How to Use a Code to Unlock a Motorola Cell Phone

• Answer:

  Chances are that when you got your Motorola phone, you subscribed for a two-year contract with your mobile service provider. This means that the phone is probably locked, thus preventing you from moving to another network. If you want to use your Motorola with a different service, you will need to unlock the phone with a code. Difficulty: Moderately Easy Things You'll Need Motorola cell phone unlock codes Instructions Go to a site that provides unlock codes for Motorola phones. A few that you can consider are found in the Resources section of this article. For a fee, these sites will provide you with an unlock code that will allow you to unlock your Motorola phone. As of 2010, these usually cost between $9.99-$29.99. Turn on your Motorola phone and dial *#06# into the keypad. You will get a 15-digit numeric code. This is also known as your IMEI, or international mobile equipment identification number. Write down the number. Go to the site where you wish to purchase your codes and type in the IMEI number into the first box. In the drop-down menus, select "Motorola" for the phone's make and then choose the model of your phone. Find your country, followed by your service provider, and click "Enter." Put in your credit card or Paypal details and an email address. Click "Buy." Get the unlock codes from your email and write them down. Turn off your Motorola phone and take out the battery and SIM card (subscriber identity module). Replace the SIM card with one from a different network. You can borrow one from a friend's phone or purchase one from a convenience store. Just make sure that it is from a different service provider than the one you currently use. Put the battery back in and turn the phone back on. Your phone will ask for a "Subsidy Code." Enter your unlock codes exactly as you see them in the email and click "OK." Wait for your phone to restart; when it does, you will get a message that your phone has been unlocked.
