Does anybody know where I could download or obtain an IMEI unlocking code generator for Samsung GSM phones? I've searched everywhere and can't find anything

I think it depends on the phone model

Yeah, and your IMEI. Specifically I'm looking for one for the SGH-C450...

If your buying it new get some directly from japan
THere is a big company that just makes the phones, then they are bought by big companies who lock them

I already have it in my posession... I bought it here in Australia cause it was the cheapest phone I could buy, but of course its locked to a certain network so I can't change on the fly! And I'm too cheap to pay the guy at the mall the 40 bucks he charges to unlock it for me!

Massive list of samsung secret codes here:

Edit: After looking further it seems there are no magic codes for this phone, you need a special cable and software to read the code from the phone.

Then you'll need some software to do it too.
