I unlocked my old Android phone very easily. It was just a matter of
installing a program and running it. Of course, the phone had to be
rooted to run the unlocker. It never affected anything I did with the
phone, but it did enable me to sell the phone to a guy from India for
more than I had bought it for when the contract was up.
