Unlocking your cell phone will allow you to use it with any wireless carrier.
Unblocking, or unlocking, your cell phone allows you to change wireless carriers without having to buy another phone. Unlocking works on phones that are programmed by a Subscriber Identity Module (SIM) card. Most phones come with a built-in "lock," making them compatible only with SIM cards from the same provider. However, certain software allows you to remove this block and free yourself from the restrictions of any single network.
Necessary Equipment
To use unblocking software, you must have the use of a personal computer and the appropriate software. Connect the phone to a computer using a Universal Serial Bus (USB) cable. This cable may come with the phone or it can be purchased at many electronic retailers.
Process
The software searches for and finds an unblocking code within your phone's internal machinery. It then places the code into view on your monitor, along with instructions on introduce properly it into your system.
Benefits
Unlocking your phone will enable you to travel to locations that are outside of your primary carrier's coverage area. In fact, you could use the same phone in several different countries by simply switching the SIM card.
Legality
Once you purchase a cellular phone, you can lawfully unblock it at your own discretion. Additionally, your handset should suffer no damage from removing the block.
