If youve bought the phone from new and it already has a service provider. The phone will be locked to this SP.

I think the only way to check if it has been unlocked is to try it with other people's sim cards. If they do not work you will just get a simple message. No harm will be caused.

Hope this helps icon_wink.gif

The're 3 possibilities:
Mobile has SIM-Lock (sometimes used with Prepaid-Bundels): The Mobile only works with the SIM you've bought with the Handy.

Mobile has Net-Lock (usally for Prepaid-Bundles): You can use every SIM, but only from one SP. e.g. Orange.

Not locked...

OK, I followed your instructions and Network shows locked with the #1
all of the other 3 (Network Subset, Service provider and corporate) show unlocked with #1

What does that mean?
