I have one question: we need to know the IMEI of the phone (so we can ask you for the unlock code), but how are we gonna know it if the first thing the phone asks when it's powered on is to insert the unlock code itself?
I unlock my droid 3 but it wont work on t-mobile. They told me at the store that because its is a CDMA phone in the USA and it can be use around the world but in the APN I see that it reads the T-mobile service can you help me?
@ProductionsMarvel If you unlock one that is from Bell Mobility in Canada ,it will work on AT&T, but if you unlock the Verizon one, it will not work on AT&T as Verizon has blocked out the US and possibly all North American frequencies once it is unlocked.
@OceanderTethyseus unfortunately not. Boost mobile is not a GSM carrier. It will work on both AT&T and T-mobile if you purchase the Droid 3 from Bell.
@xboyof190 the Unlocked version of the Verizon Droid 3 does not work on North American carriers when unlocked. It will only work outside of North America.
So, if I were to unlock a verizon droid 3. could I switch it to virgin mobile? Just wondering becuase I just got one for free, and it's mildly defective... and if I can switch to it (and fix the defect, or get a replacement shipped to me... I'd be mind blown/ happy)
i have a verizon droid 3 for verizon but it does take a sim card and it allows me to choose gsm in the settings. will i be able to unlock it and use it for tmobile in north america?? if so i will buy this now.
@swaggerjacker10 it will not work on T-mobile as Verizon has blocked out the North American radio signals. It will only work while travelling overseas after its unlocked.
would I be able to unlock a verison droid 3 from the states and use it with telus in Canada?

@SuperSZ you can find the IMEI on the back of the phone. It can be found underneath the battery on the phone itself.

In Canada, this phone is sold by Bell. I'd like to purchase one, unlock it and use it on Telus. Will that work?

@queryingKevin You are correct! In this video, we used a Bell Droid 3 and it does work with Rogers, Telus and Fido in Canada.
