IMPORTANT: Unlocking and Phone Locked Return....

Just a little warning to any of the newbs coming here and posting the same topic (no matter what you want to rename it) asking how to unlock their phone or what to do when it says "Locked: Return for Servicing"

Unlocking:
If you have Rev 1.5 or earlier
Use the *#9998*3323# Trick (look for it on the forum)
The *#1111*WHATEVER# code will NOT work
If you have Rev 1.6 or later
You MUST use unlocking software. Codes WILL lock your phone FOREVER

Locked: Return
There is only 1 working solution, you must flash a copy of the firmware that is not in the locked status. (Most) Unlocking programs will NOT disable this issue, and your service provider cannot give you a code

If you do not plan to use your phone with another service provider, there is no real point to unlocking your phone other than to sell it. If you don't need to unlock it, don't take the risk of disabling the phone altogether
