Hi guys
I have a W850 which is locked to Orange. How do I get the code to unlock the phone from Orange. Is there a website where the code will be generated based on the IMEI or how do I proceed with this.

I searched for it on their webpage but found none information that I could utilize.

I don't think there is, there's only that for older Nokia models. I think the only way to unlock Sony Ericsson's free of charge is to patch unlock it.

I think you misunderstand me mate. 3 years after I bought I can now unlock for free. I need a code for that which will be provided by my operator, which in this case is Orange.

But do I need to call them to get the unlock code?

Yes, you'll have to call them, and even then it's not straight forward.
My opinions on this forum are that of my own and not of the company I work for.
