How To Unlock Your T-Mobile Dash
It doesn’t matter who your carrier is, unlocking your cell phone can be a huge pain. Call your carrier’s customer service department and ask them about unlocking if you don’t believe me. Why do I need to unlock my phone you ask? Well, you don’t need to, but there are a few reasons why you might like to. First, unlocking your cell phone allows for it to be used on different carrier networks. For example, you could unlock a Cingular phone and use it on T-Mobile’s network. The only thing to keep in mind with using phones across different network is that GSM and CDMA do not mix together. Secondly, a phone that is application unlocked allows you to install basically whatever you want on it, making it essentially as customizable as you want.
Before we get into how to unlock your T-Mobile Dash, I want to note that there are two types of locks on a cell phone: SIM and CID. The SIM lock is what marries the phone to a specific service provider, and as mentioned above removing this will allow you to use it on multiple carriers. The CID lock is what ties the phone to a specific OS and software, and as I just said removing this will allow you to install whatever you want.
OK now that we know what we’re doing and why we want to do it, let us proceed.
Unlocking your T-Mobile Dash is very easy but not free.
1. Go to http://www.imei-check.co.uk/dashunlock.php
2. Enter your IMEI into the form and hit continue. To find your IMEI number just dial *#06# on your Dash.
3. Complete the necessary PayPal form — comes out to around $40.
4. Save the DASHv2Unlock Program to your computer — downloadable from the Web site in Step 1 .
5. Go into your email account on file with PayPal and save the UNL file that matches your IMEI to your computer.
6. Turn on the Dash and establish an ActiveSync connection.
7. Extract and run the DASHv2Unlock program from Step 4.
8. Supply the DASHv2Unlock program with the UNL file from Step 5.
9. That’s it, just wait until the program finishes and your phone reboots.

I have a tmobil dash that i have had problems with since i got it. I get dropped calls, and when i get online, it kicks me out within aound 2 to 3 minustes on. Would i need to unlock it or what do i need to rectify this and what can i do to see TV, download my attatchments, and also hear radio stations on my phone if possible. PLease let me know, i am frustrated iwht this phone, ready to chuck it out the window.
I unlocked my Dash however the keyboard does not work properly. When texting and hitting the numbers it scrolls through like a regular phone so it’s not seeming to be a true keyboard to me.

Guys,
I’ve done it 2 times already. Just call up T-Mobile and say that you are travelling abroad to Europe and Asia (for vacation or business) and would like to unlock your phone because you want to use a local SIM card since international roaming is prohibitive.
They will email you the unlock code.
(I’ve done this today) If you buy a locked phone from someone else, you can still call T-Mobile customer care and say you bought this phone from the internet and don’t have a T-Mobile account and wish for it to be unlocked. They will do so. (it would be easier if you know for a fact what the original phone # on the account was and if it is still in its contract period).
Hey guys I found a FREE way but you need activsync to do it. If you don’t have it you can find it here. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/eulas/eula_activesync45_1033.mspx?ProductID=76 There is a tutorial that worked for me on youtube and here is the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jKOK5O6iLoI
It shows you in the beginning but you can ignore the rest unless you want NES games on your dash. If it doesn’t work I’m sorry but this is how my phone was unlocked..

Actually I want to use facebook, mail client and some chat tools plus opera mobile? can i do this if i just unlock the phone and no CID and application unlock?
It seems that several people are having having the below issue; either I missed your response or there isn’t a solution. I received the unlock code from T-Mobile for the Dash. I plan on using he dash it with the AT&T/Cingular. I just want to make sure the think will work.

“SIM, text msgs work fine, MMS does not work, and I can’t connect to the msn Messenger or to any website unless using Wi-Fi. Are there settings that need tweaking, or this is just part of the deal? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.”
