This is the T-Mobile forum. T-Mobile is GSM. Try Verizon or Sprint.

😁 If I am not mistaken you can not UNLOCK a CDMA (SPRINT, NEXTEL, and VERIZON) phone. They are only available to the specific carrier. Only GSM carrier(AT&T wireless, Cingular, T-Mobile)phones can be unlocked.

Nextel isn't CDMA. Why not carry this conversation on in a forum which is not GSM?

And how do you manually unlock a CDMA phone. If its true then i would like to "unlock" the Nokia 6255i. Do you need service from a CDMA carrier to make a CDMA phone work as in taking pictures, listening to mp3s, FM radio, taking videos, but no need to make phone calls?
