Unlock your Samsung Omnia

[tommy11481]

you would not need to unlock it and yes it will work. qpst is your friend so that you can change the prl and sid and put your number and esn (its how alltel authenticates your phone) under ppp config and then the an tab then to your right and type your number in at the user name yournumberhere@alltel.net then password is your hex esn displayed at the top. if you have no idea what i am talking about just get an alltel phone. the touch pro is nice and so is the diamond.

also it would not hurt to put the dcd carrier cab and maybe the double overlap of the two arcsoft cabs that i think lennysh figured out migh twork for picture messaging.

quick question what would i change my PRL and Sid to?

[tommy11481]

your prl should be 30040 because of the verizon alltel merger they have changed it 4 times that i know of but you can go to corolada prl webpage and get the 30033 and that will work just fine till you do a *228 and update it. the sid is area specific so you can call alltel advanced technical support by calling 1-800-alltel1 or *611 or 611 from your phone. choose option 3 3 times and then hit 0 and it will take you to them and they are active 24/7 and know more than the average employee

From the description on the Ebay page, it does not sound like the person unlocked the phone. They just deactivated it. They state that you can activate it on Verizon Wireless, so I'm gunna guess that its still locked to VZW.

For some reason, every time I change the username and write to phone, it resets back to the vzw3g.com username. I'm trying to change it to xxxxxxxxxx@alltel.net.
Changes on other tabs seem to save just fine.

1. type *7465625*638*# to set
2. type the first 6 digits of the value of the IMSI entry here.
3. type your new NCK (1234567, then OK
3. type *#7465625# to check your lock (network lock still enabled)
4. type #7465625*638*# and type your NCK (1234567
5. enjoy.

This is a GSM hack... Here is the original thread from XDA...
