you can't unlock a GSM phone and use it on Bell's network, they don't use GSM. Basically, in Canada, you are going to go with Rogers or Fido if you unlock your phone. Bell uses CDMA. You may be able to find a phone in the US that uses CDMA, unlock it and use it but you'll be stuck with Bell as your provider in Canada only.
Anybody here know much about unlocking cell phones? where do i get it done? how much does it cost?
The plan im on now ends in march, but i dont like my phone and im thinking of getting a new one. however, im on a bell plan, and the new phone i want to buy is from rogers. (i want to keep my same bell number)
so would be able to buy the new phone at rogers, unlock it, then use it with my bell number and the remainder of the plan? is that even what unlocking means?

Mobile Phone Unlocking?
Unlocking a mobile phone is a procedure to remove any SIM/Network restrictions set on the phone by either the manufacturer of the phone or by the mobile phone's service provider. After unlocking a mobile phone, you can still use it with it's existing network or switch over to any other supported network.
