If you have already inserted a Cingular SIM in a T-Mobile phone, and it works with the Cingular SIM (meaning the signal in the display says "Cingular", the phone is unlocked already.

If you have a Cingular SIM, and your T-mobile Phone is locked to T-mobile, it won't matter once it is unlocked. The phone will work with any carrier on the same frequency(s) as the phone.

Hope this helps.

Only try the code once if you are certain that you entered the unlock code exactly as posted, and get "code error", BTW.
