Is mobile phone unlocking legal?

    The term "locked" typically refers to a device that can only be used on a


    specific network and cannot be activated on a competing carrier's network. An


    "unlocked" device is no longer locked to a specific network and the user may


    attempt to activate it on another carrier's network. There are generally two


    scenarios for device unlocking:



    SIM Unlocking: A device may be referred to as "locked" if that device was


    manufactured with programming restrictions that prevent another carrier's


    SIM card from being inserted into the SIM slot for use on a different


    network. Generally, most smartphones launched after February 2015 are SIM


    unlock-capable—meaning the SIM slot can be unlocked for potential usage on


    other carriers Internationally .


     


     


    MSL Unlocking: A device is "locked" if it is manufactured with a type of


    disabling software and a locking code (referred to as "Master Subsidy Lock"


    or "MSL"). Generally, MSL locks were utilized on devices launched before


    February 2015. Droid Unlocking can provide the MSL code to eligible


    customers, however this does not mean that the device will be able to be


    successfully used on any other carrier domestically.
