Unfortunately, it is either not possible or extremely difficult for a person to unlock any type of mobile phone on their own. If you don’t wish to try it yourself or risk causing any damage to your phone, then the best option would be to take it any phone shop, usually the types that you see in marketplaces that sell phone cases and chargers.
These types of shops are really the only places that you can successfully get your phone unlocked. This is because unlocking a phone requires both a specialist cable and a specific type of software that you cannot access without going to a dealer. That type of method is the one that would be used to unlock a Sony Ericsson W205, unlike some manufacturers which just require the input of a special code.
If you take your phone to a manufacturer, then they should be able to unlock your phone for a very small price. They could even be able to do it whilst you wait. If they can’t then it will not take more than a day to do as it is a very easy process nowadays.
However, we did come across an unlock code on the Internet that people are convinced has worked. They say that you should turn off your phone, remove the SIM card and then turn it back on again. Then you should enter the following code: **4447210**3245**324# and then press OK. You may not be able to enter the hash (#) sign, if you can’t just press OK. Turn your phone off and then insert the new SIM card that is registered to a different network. When you come to turn the phone on again, the set up wizard should load up to guide you through setting up the new SIM.
If the above method doesn’t work, or you don’t wish to risk trying it, then the only way that is guaranteed to unlock your phone is to take it to a specialist and pay a small fee.
