Wht do you care. The people in the store won't even think of it as a
possibility. And unless they just happen to have a T-Mobile or other carriers
SIM there is no way that they can tell anyway. There is no menu item that says
that it is unlocked.

Re: Is there a way to relock a Nokia 3590?
Your locking it to a network by that code .. different codes will lock to
different networks. If the simcard in the phone WOULD be blocked by that
code, it probably wont do it.
