More and more mobile phone unlocking solutions are surfacing in the market. Although it might not be legal to unlock your network-locked cellphone. As it’ll definitely void the warranty from the manufacturer. But if you intend to bring in a cellphone that has been locked for a network operator in overseas into your country, meaning that you’re always ready to sacrifice the warranty and getting it unlocked for your local operator.
Here comes another cell phone unlock solution, which is claimed to unlock most network-locked GSM mobile phones in the market and it even works well with 3G cards. I’m not too sure if it can work with iPhone or not. But it’s worth to have a try as it costs only $23.
The universal SIM unlock card is pretty easy to use. It’s super thin and claimed to fit virtually all cell phones in the market. What you need to do is just place this unlock card beneath your operator’s SIM card and place the two into the SIM socket of your cell phone. The unlock card is the one in direct contact with the SIM socket. The unlock card’s got Gold Immersion and makes best contact with the SIM card and the socket at all time.
Some SIM cards might need you to have minimal cutting. But in most cases, you don’t need to cut the SIM card to get it to fit with this unlock card. The SIM unlock card is inserted in parallel with your operator’s SIM card, and enables it to be used on a cell phone that is locked for another operator. The product page has a long list of mobile phones that have been tested working OK with this unlock card. Oh yes, iPhone 1.2.3 is in the list! And the best is using this universal SIM unlock card will still leave your iPhone’s firmware “virgin”.
