your mobile was procured from "3" mobile and hence ONLY "3" can unlock it.

this can only be done by calling "3" and request for an unlock.

also do take note that, the principal line holder may need to be present in order to complete this request.
thanks! will try that again.. actually, i did asked "3" to unlock this set and "3" told me to wait a couple of days before it can be use.. now, it has been over a week but the phone still can't read the sim.. sad.gif

you will need to restore the phone for the unlocking process to complete.

make sure that you are connected to the net throughout the restoration.

if you are certain that you are restored your iPhone correctly (from what iTunes tells you).

then "3" hasn't unlocked your unit yet. you will need to call them again.

this is why i refuse to be a "3" customer; their service (both customer and coverage) doesn't meet my requirement/threshold
