What do you mean by carrier locked? Is that when you are forced to use a particular carrier, i.e. Verizon?

Hi I don’t understand this at all but I bought a 16 gig Omnia i900 on eBay and it starts with Omnia software then goes to the windows page no carriers. Now the phone was supplied with an Australian power adapter so I assume it’s from overseas. Now my last phone I saw was originally on Vodophone and as soon as I put in my Telstra sim card in the phone turned it on it said words to the affect that a different providers sim card was in the phone did I want to install the setting for this card. I said yes then the phone worked on the web ok. Now this new phone doesn't say this, I went to help on the phone to Telstra and in the end they sent me an email to manually set the phone up. I can’t understand this. But is it possible my phone is locked to an overseas carrier? I can make calls etc but can’t access the web or even get the phone to work in wireless connection or connect to Bluetooth to my Navman. Any help would be gratefully accepted. Now I am 60 so plain straight forward help would be nice. Cheers.

Wow worked like a charm, only problem was when i entered the code in step 5 and nothing happened. Otherwise disable locking was complete!  

Thanks!

Hey,

I've tried everything that everyone has posted, but nothin works! It's locked to T-mobile UK, and even the local phone shop spent a good half hour on it and said they couldn't unlock it, but they'd unlocked other omnia's before, but never a t-mobile one.

Is it possible to make my phone unlocked when on T-mobile?

Hello. You could try flashing to another ROM, I use DXIA5 from this link: http://www.samsung-omnia.org/rom-discussion/incorrect-version-!the-most-easiest-way!/
This ROM gives very good battery life, I tried the other in this link but it didn't seem to give the same battery life so I flashed back.
 If your phone is still locked after flashing to this ROM then the above procedure should work as whatever T-Mobile added to there ROM to stop unlocking should have been removed.
Read lots of info about flashing and follow every step in the instructions whether you think it's necessary or not and all should go well.
PS it must be an i900 ROM for your i900 not an i910 ROM

will this work on a Canadian locked i910?
