HOWTO unlock your N900 and turn it into a 3G modem

After read­ing the recent Boing Boing post about HOWTO unlock your Nexus One and turn it into a 3G modem, I thought it might be worth putting together a sim­i­lar set of instruc­tions for the Nokia N900.

Some notes before we begin:

  1. This is a sup­ported use of your phone.
  2. There is no risk of brick­ing your phone.
  3. This does not wipe your phone.
  4. You don’t need to back any­thing up before starting.

1. Install Bluetooth Dial-Up Networking support

  1. Open the Application Manager
  2. Install the “Bluetooth Dial-Up Networking” Application

2. Tether your computer
