I got mine unlocked by Verizon. Ring their helpline and tell them you want to use your phone abroad and want it unlocked to used local prepaid SIM card, They gave me the unlocking no. Goodluck.

What if you are not on Verizon? :scratch:

Is there software to do this without calling Verizon?

There are companies that can do it for you, you can google them but it's up to you if you want to take that chance.

May be a stupid question, but I will ask anyway... :scratch:

I assume that the phone will ask for a code if it is locked and you put in another carrier's SIM card but is there any way to figure out if your SIM is unlocked if you don't have a SIM card to try with? I plan to travel abroad and buy a local SIM card and don't know if my SIM is unlocked or not. I don't have another SIM with me to try out. I don't want to spend money buying a SIM unlocking code just to find out it is already unlocked! The person who I bought the phone from was not aware if the SIM was unlocked or not. :(

Not a stupid question. Once the phone is SIM unlocked you can put whatever GSM card in there and it will not ask you for another code. You are actually unlocking the device itself, not the SIM card. The only way to find out if it is already SIM unlocked is to put in an active SIM card in there. I tried with my old T-Mobile inactive SIM and it didn't work. Once I got active service it worked right away.

coolpoete - Thanks. I was dreading that was going to be the answer. I will try and see if I find someone who has an AT&T or T-Mobile phone. Almost everyone I know is on Verizon! :(

But if you call Verizon and tell them you are going to be traveling they will SIM unlock it for you for free -or give you the code - or whatever it is they do. I called and asked them.

****EDIT**** -sorry. I forgot. You said you are not on Verizon.
