Unlock Orange San Francisco using T mobile SIM

[Guest aceofwands1]

Please can anyone help me.

I have purposely bought an Orange San Francisco, so I can unlock it and use it with a newly

bought T-Mobile SIM.

I have read through all the FAQs etc and keep having this problem.

When I insert the new SIM and boot up the phone it asks me for the SIM pin code.

I have set this myself so I know exactly what is. Except the San Francisco won't accept it.

It gives me five attempts, then locks up on me.

I have tried putting extra tape on the back of the card to raise the contact, but this doesn't work.

The SIM works perfectly on my other phone, a T-mobile Pulse.

I can't even get to first base! :unsure:

Regards

There is an online calculator which forms this code. I know you say you set it yourself, are you talking about Tue pin lock? , but its worth a try using the code this tool gives you, it worked for me.

Flashing a custom rom bypasses the similar network check, allowing any similar to be used, so your phone is essentially unlocked.

Can you give me the address of the online calculator - I just tried one which gave back an 8 digit code, which is no good.

Where does one get a custom rom from? - as in, flashing a custom rom

There are two pinned topics on the front page of the forum - really not hard to find either - look here or here

The first one points to an app which will do all the hard work for you, but you may need to have your orange sim in

The second one.... why am I explaining - it says it all in the thread!
