How to Unlock an iPaq Phone

The HP iPAQ is a cellphone that must be unlocked before using it on your network. There are a few different models of the iPAQ, including the 6315, but these models all use the same unlock method. Unlocking the phone requires getting an unlock code and entering it into the phone properly. A wrong unlock code can permanently lock your phone. You will need a cell phone service provider to get your unlock code.
