Help I need to unlock phone Softbank 740SC

Does anyone know where i can get this phone unlocked? I called JP cellular and they said this phone can't be unlocked but when i googled it it's been done before. I'm a phone noob and don't know much about phones so any help would be appreciated thanks. It's a SoftBank 740SC.

I dealt with CanadaJPhones a long time back, you could try them, this guy named Joe is very friendly and easy to deal with

Their website if you need a look at it http://www.canadajphones.com/

"I need to check with my engineer who responsible for the unlocking. If it is possible then the price will be US$190 / CAD$200, plus the cost yo ship the photo to HK our central store since it need to be unlocked in Japan.

We responsible for shipping the phone to Japan and back to you. So the money you pay is mainly using for shipments.

Will let you know the availability soon.

I e-mailed them... no offense but their website seems kinda shady and their reply seemed more like a joke.

Well I only bought a phone off them, their site does suck, but the person that dealt with me was very informative

I never had to get mine unlocked, keep looking for places to get them unlocked, its not simhackable right?

I have no idea if it's simhackable or not. All i can dig up on the internet is youtube videos of unlocked ones and forums that say they've unlocked it but don't say how.

CanadaJPhones & Electronic does NOT unlock this model.
Its like i've been calling every unlocking place in vancouver and richmond and no unlocks Softbank. i've searched it on the internet apparently you need some z3x box. it sounds as though the stores don't have it or they are unwilling, can anyone help out? Or tell me a store that sells iNex hypersim? really don't want this phone to become a paperweight.
