Just bought a Captivate, Looking to unlock...

[ecsandoval84]

Hey there, I just bought a used Captivate, I have already rooted my phone, and my next step is to unlock it. I have looked and looked on how to unlock this phone but I have had little success.

Here is what I am running:

Firmware 2.2
Kernel: 2.6.32.9
Build Number: FROYO.UCKB1

I am really not wanting to flash a custom rom, but if that is going to be one of my only choices, then I hope to also learn which is the best of the best.

I hope to get the best help possible, but bare with me, I am not a novice or a expert droid user, but I can understand some basic code if needed.

Thanks!

Pic an app and follow its included directions.

With the captivate, flashing a custom rom is actually the easiest way to unlock it.

Wait- custom ROMs unlock the phone so it can be used on other carriers?

ooo....wrong unlock. I thought by unlock you meant make the phone usable and able to do anything you want. I'm not sure on the other carriers thing.

Being that he already rooted it's the only thing left to unlock
