How do you unlock a Motorola t-mobile phone?

Answer 1

It's a quote from a different forum: "I have a Motorola C 139 tracphone. I want to know can it be unlocked. I sent it in to a unlock shop and it was sent back saying it can not be unlocked. Here is what they said "We received your phone and tried to unlock it many times but failed.

Unforunately, it cannot be done as

we do not unlock Tracfone handsets. Tracfone modify all their

handset's software to display "Air Tank",

which is exclusively a proprietary feature. Even if the service

provider restriction has been removed, where

a C139 from Cingular or T-Mobile can work immediately with a SIM from

another network, the Tracfone

will not be able to make calls due to empty "Air Tank". Had this been

a normal C139 from any other carriers,

we would have been able to unlock it easily for you"

"The answer that you were given is partially correct. Although you can unlock a tracfone, it wouldn't be worth it due to the software that they use. If you did manage to get it unlocked, it would only work on another network for as many minutes as you had left on the tracfone. After you run out of minutes, the phone would shut off and you would not be able to use it.

In order to fully use the phone on another network, you would have to unlock and reflash the phone after deleting the tracfone software...Not recommended if you are not familiar with reflashing phones."

1. Install the proper drivers for connectivity between the computer and your cellphone. Use Google to find the driver , don't be lazy.

2. Install flash and backup 3.07. Again use Google.

3. Turn and your phone and connect the phone to your computer using a usb cord.

4. Run Flash and backup 3.07 and make sure that the green indicator is on in the lower left hand corner of the program. This signifies that your computer can communicate to your phone. If it is red and not green you cannot proceed with unlocking your V188. By the way this may unlock other old Motorola phones.

7. Click on Locks, then click on the box that says Unlock Sp

8. Make sure that the correct phone model is selected.

9. Then click do selected job.

10. Then there are some on screen instructions which you must follow , and voila it will be unlocked.

Trust me this works. I did it, just follow the instruction and get the proper drivers and programs.
