If you unlock it then you can go to a different provider with the same phone. This is usually something for the people with tri-band phones. Some take it out of the country and use the phone with the local sim card provider.
OK, cell phone newbie question: Does this work on the Nokia 3361 phone from the 7-Eleven FAR deal that currently uses the AT&T Free2Go pre-paid service?
Unlocking a phone lets a GSM phone switch providers (the phone can accept another companies SIM chip - the data of the phone and its account information)
It can also let you use different worldwide bands.
Lets say I was going to England and wanted to use my Cingular phone. There would be 2 problems w/ a locked phone: 1) The banwidth modulation of the phone would be incorrect (diferent frequency) 2) Cingular isnt a provider in England (provider unavailable)
Unlocking the cell phone allows one to open an account in another country (different frequency acceptance) and different provider.
It's also great if your friend's cell phone dies.. they can pop their SIM chip in your phone and use there provider.... even if its different than your own
<< Please clue me in: What exactly are we unlocking and why do we want to? >>
So that you can take your phone to a new carrier. All wireless carriers subsidize the phones they sell so they don't want customers to be able to switch when their contract terms are up. For example, being a T-Mobile user, you can't just take your currect GSM phone and switch to Cingular. Well guess what, after unlocking the phone, you can and will save a bunch when you tell the sales rep that you don't need to buy a new phone.
But the easier way to unlock is, just tell your carrier you will be on a biz trip to somewhere outside USA and would like to have your phone unlocked so you can use your phone overseas. I wrote an email the second week after I signed up to t-mo and got the unlock code the next day. No hassle whatsoever.
EDIT Seems like I got beaten by 3 fast finger typers. Wow.
T-Mobile will give you the unlock code after 3 months of service. No need to make up a story. AT&T will not give you an unlock code at any time. BTW, this is only useful if you have a dual or tri-band phone, since most countries outside of the US use different frequencies for their phone.
