How to Decode a Mobile Phone?

For many owners of new mobile phones that come with a subscription package from one of the mobile operators, this is an important issue. Many get the phone at a symbolic price of 1 dinar and do not intend to use it in the network in which they signed the contract. The problem is that such phones are always locked to the network they are from, and cannot be used in another network.

Or a situation where you get a cell phone from abroad. Such a phone is also, as a rule, locked and cannot be used in our home networks, unless the mobile phone is decoded.

There are various websites on the Internet on how to decode a mobile phone for free, as well as various sites that allegedly provide this service for free, but the truth is that it is very difficult, and in most cases impossible. A few years ago, it was possible for some models that were current at the time, but for 90% of mobile phones in our country today, it is almost impossible to unlock for free.

Most Nokia mobile phones have so-called SL3 protection, which requires special software and extremely powerful computers to break, not one but more, which is of course completely unnecessary and unprofitable for the average user to buy all this just to unlock one mobile phone. This operation normally takes from one to several days for Nokia phones.

Decoding Samsung mobile phones is much faster, and is usually completed within an hour or less, but it also requires special software and a device that only specialized mobile phone services have. Since it lasts significantly shorter and the price is generally lower compared to Nokia phones.

For some models of mobile phones, it is possible to find tutorials and instructions on the Internet, but for the average user, it is too complicated, because it includes so-called flashing of the phone, rooting, typing codes via terminals, Android SDK, etc., which is too much complication for most people.

All in all, if you are an advanced computer user and you understand mobile phones well, and you want to unlock that. decode your mobile phone, first check if there is a possibility for free decoding, so if you feel confident that you can do it yourself - good luck :)

If you are not so experienced or you just want to leave that job to professionals, the Doctor Mobil mobile phone service performs the decoding of mobile phones in Belgrade at affordable prices.
