You mentioned the method to remove a file using http://php.net/unlink , have you looked at that?
Why the file is locked, could be a number of reasons, you're not the owner or a super user who can remove that file, it's in use so locked for that reason and possibly a number of other reasons.
PHP Shell is just the same as using PHP on the web, it's just ran in a command line way, so it's not different than doing it through a page.
How are you trying to remove the file, via FTP? If that's not working and you can't upload a file, or edit it etc, then you might have to ask your host for support to find out why this is happening, they could be doing some server updates/changes and have locked it for these reasons so you don't corrupt anything on your server while these changes are happening.

if it uses UNIX commands then you can simply type in
rm (file)
else you must refer to the documentation or check how to use the batch command for DOS.

by shell commend its rm |file anme|
you can create your own file with the name
"delete.now" with 777 chmod that acctually is a shell file
in file get the name by run coomend, give chmod 777 and rm it
GET for shell run commend is
$1 for first
e.g
"delete.now" :
chmod 777 $1 &
rm $1
"run.php" :
<?php
$file="file.name";
system("./delete.now ".$file);
?>
i hope that helps
