Is my phone locked?

Hi,

I would like to know whether the xperia M I got via ebay is locked to any network or even a specific simcard.

Calling *#*#7378423#*#* reveals a "Service Info" menu, that provides a "SIM lock" submenu.

The entries read

[x] Network 0
[x] Network subset 0
[x] Service provider 0
[x] Corporate 0
[x] SIM 0

The problem is, that on some webpages it is claimed for an unlocked phone it should look like

[] Network 0
[] Network subset 0
[] Service provider 0
[] Corporate 0
[] SIM 0

while others claim that the 0 is already sufficient.

Does anybody know for sure the correct interpretation?

Are there any other ways to ensure that the phone is not locked to any or all networks in my country.

I really prefer to buy foreign sims during holidays, thus I want to make sure, that the phone also works outside of germany.

regards

   Sascha
