Today we was informed of our prices for the XDA 11, And from this we can sell them for £475 + VAT (and carrage if needed) they will sim free ( you do not need to sign a air time contract ) But the phones are genuine o2 phones so they will be locked to o2, I have read messages from people on here getting them unlocked for £15. If this is the case i will of corse get them unlocked and sell them proper sim free for use for any sim.
Thanks John
propper sim free = NEVER EVER BEEN LOCKED SINCE RELEASED FROM FACTORY also never had a sim or contract with them
where bouts you from mate and have you got physical stock?
gaz
yes these are sim free as in no sim card is included, no need to sign a air time agreement, but they locked to o2 so they will only work the o2 sim
we are near Maidstone in Kent
we are are small independed phone shop, we have been told its a 3 day item, but i ordered one today for Saterday/Monday delevery, and as soon as it sells we will order another, we have to pay for our stock when we order and i dont like to tie up loads of money in just one product
as to the unlocking i am going to try and get mine unlocked tomorow, As i would rather sell them Proper Sim Free then i can ship them anywhere in the world and know people will be happy with them
So you want money up front?
no not at all.
i will only sell what i have in stock like any normal shop, payment could be in cash or crdit card if you collect it, or credit card if you wish to do it as mail order.
As i said earlier we are only a small shop we are not looking to hold probley more than 1 or 2 depending on how it goes in stock, BT would rather we sell them with airtime , but as we are paying for them sim free the choice is up to us what we do with them.
We are not looking to sell hundreds and hundreds of them sim free, but i have seen a few people on here asking for them without having to sign air tim contracts, .... And i use the forum for info and its just my way of hopefully helping a few people in need of one to get one , and a little ( and i mean little) bit of profit for us
John
Further to my previous post i would rather people emailed me with ther phone number and as soon as i have stock i will contact them ( in the same order as i recieve the emails asking for them) and sell that way as i fully understand that prople would not like to pay someone that kind of money up front to someone they dont know.
Thanks
John
I will be intrested but only simlock free since I live and use it in the Netherlands. Let me know if you get the simlock removed, I cannot do it from here.
It's real, it's here and i've tested it!

Not bad for £20 IMHO (£44 if you sign up to MoDaCo Plus to get the early unlock and the MoDaCo Plus benefits!)

I unlocked my XDAIIs this morning via this service, it went as smoothly as a knife through butter.
Give it a go it's only £20, and will save you all the endless phonecalls with your provider.

Guys, I am trying this on an MDA3 form T-Mobile UK and can not even get into the serial boot screen :-(
Any tips what order to hold down the buttons?
Kev
Great news!
When will this tool be available to us (people who not a member PLUS of MODACO)? How is the guarantee?
Thank you anyway for a light at the end of tunel!
umm... isnt it ugly to charge for it?
the unlock for xda1/2 was for free, now your trying to make money off unlocking the phone - like the providers?

I unlocked my t-mobile mda compact T-mobile netherlands it costs you 44 pounds but its worth it
Great work imei-check.co.uk :lol:
to get in the boot screen press cam button + powerbutton then press the reset button with stylus
Wait a couple more days while imei-check finalise their website and they will officially have have it available for everyone! It will cost £20, £44 is a bit much for a couple of days!!
Send an e-mail
I sent an e-mail today to imei-check.co.uk, and hope to hear from them soon.
Unlocked
YES Finally my phone is unlocked!!!
Thanx to imei-check.co.uk
and Tom
Just unlocked mine, site is live now http://www.imei-check.co.uk/
£20 and now I don't have to carry that bloody brick in my pocket anymore!
Jamie
unlocking worked really fast (with credit card)
a little bit expensive but better than paying EUR 100.- to t-mobile austria
rsd
I Got It Unlocked ( At last!!)
Currently there is 2 services for unlocking of the XDA iis one is unlockthatmobile.com for£40 and the other is imei-check.co.uk for £20 so it is worth what you pay as it is done in 5 minutes.

O2 doesn't lock the Xda Exec.
ehh
yes O2 does lock all new versions LOL only a few early versions wern't unlocked.
:evil:
I got mine from o2 UK about 2 weeks ago and it is unlocked.
hmm
had 2 now of friends which are locked.
maybe clever to test it or ask before you get one.
:twisted:
unlock universal
imei-check.com have found a solution to our needs but it is not cheap
and it involvs sending the phone to them....
Alexis
What a laugh! They charge EUR 74,- plus shipping. I'd rather pay EUR 99,- here at the tmob shop and the Universal never leaves my hands.
i got my phone on the 1st december and its not locked.
but i got it from o2 online.
i agree
id rather pay even double this money, like ill pay 140 euro i wont have a problem if thas what it takes, but my universal wont leave my hand.
i dotn feel like sending my phone overseas to get unlocked, actually the guyz OF imei check might be afraid that the guyz of our forum here, will sniff technics out of thier unlocking tool if they offered it online, but they are just limiting themselves with this, knowing that there are other people in other very far away countries, that needs this service, i dont think a guy in the US or Australia or asia, will send his phone to the uk, may be im thining wrong
or from Poland like me
hei friends i have for you the unlock code for the spv-m5000 that was bought from ebay or even not from ebay from anywhere you got it and you just wish to unlock it for SIM free worlwide
send me the IMEI and the serial number to private message ill check it and come back to you.
if i can do the job you will be asked to paypal me 40 gbp for the job.
your money will be fully refunded in case i cant get the code for some reson
and that a promise
in any case try me and see i am real.
*yawns* if you can't beat them....
Friends,
I too have an amazing remarkable and extraordinary unlocking tool/key/widget for your universal... ohhh yes I do!!
I found it in my dreams on ebay one night and now I'm hoping some poor un-knowing fool will stupidly part with their hard-earned readies, never to see them again!!
Such a dicksplat I am, that I never checked the ongoing thread about unlocking and the previous attempts from other dicksplashes to try this old chestnut on with the good folk of xda-dev... and truly wish to get my paypal account nice and fat with ill-gotten funds!
so come on... pm me see if im real... or I might just be full of bulls droppings... what do YOU reckon?!!
phil - lmao!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Or you could just paypal me £10, I won't send you a code but i'll buy nice things with it.
:roll:

ok you win.. looks like he's for real..
Don't even know why i'm posting since i'm on O2 .. LOL
He is for real, top guy, very fast, and worth the extra for speed and lack of hassle..
Not like those ejits at orange...
v. expensive
Orange charges around £20 i think to give u the unlock code... and you charge £40... wouldnt it be better to go through orange and do it legitamately.

Mate, go ebay, Search "unlock xda exec" and get the software ur self for 0.99p. Motin is making 39£ profit out of you lot. I beleive in fair pricing, but since his being such a rip off... i revealed his secret. Go ebay and get the software to unlock xda exec by using model no and imei.

HEY MATE IF YOU THINK YOU KNOW SOMTHING THEN WHY DONT YOU GO AND BUY FROM EBAY AT 0.99 GBP THE SOFTWARE AND SEE YOU GET NOTHING .
FOR YOUR INFORMATION AND ALL WHO READ THIS XDA EXEC AND JASJAR COMES FULLY UNLOCKED FROM FACTORY IN ASIA.
THE ONLY ONES THAT ARE LOCKED ARE THE T-MOBILE THE ORANGE AND THE VODA .
NOW LETS SEE YOU MAN UNLOCK IT WITH THAT SOFTWARE AND BY THE WAY READIN IS ITEM DESCRPTION ON EBAY HE CAN ONLY UNLOCK THE SXA EXEC NOW READ THE FEEDBACK HERE AND TELL ME WHO IS RIPPING OFF ME OR YOU OR MAYBE HIM OR MAYBE YOU ARE HIM !!!
GD LUCK TO EVERYONE .
Yep he is right ... the O2 XDA is already unlocked so that ebay guy is ripping people off.. unless it works on the mda too. (which I doubt)
-jc
MOTIN, iYOUR 40£ IS DOUBLE THE PRICE OF WHAT ORANGE, O2 and TMOBILE CHARGE FOR GIVING THE UNLOCK CODE. THATS STILL A RIP OFF! I ADVISE PEOPLE TO RING ORANGE, UNLOCK IT THAT WAY, MUCH CHEAPER
1. ebay guy solotion does not work at all on any unit so be aware
2. orange t-mobile will do it maybe cheeper but only if you leave in uk and have an orange or t-mobile account.
gd luck
so you think 200% the original unlocking price is justified just because you can unlock phones that are not from uk?
if you can do it cheeper you are welcome to offer your service
but just talking and doing nothing is not a big deal
so go spend your weekend doing things for you or others
but not agianst others.

I think if people will pay it, and he offeres a money back guarantee, which he does, then its entirely down to the persons choice...
I tried all other avenues, orange refused to unlock my phone, saying I had to live in the UK, and the previous owner was under contract blah blah blah...
As I only paid £300 quid for a brand new boxed SPV M5000, yes I believe the cost was completely justified...
If you dont wanna pay it, stop *****ing, as there are people out here who are very grateful...
hello and sorry if i'm posting on the wrong place.
I have the opportunity to buy an locked MDA T-mobile compact V from a friend's friend ... but i dont have to much time because he has already another buyer.
can you guys help me?!
i would like to know at the current time:
it is possible to unlock the phone to use with any company?
it is possible to debrand it? or at least put it a lot like an original HTC?
what isn't possible to undo on this mda compact 5 (appart from the covers... theres no problem for me)
any help would be very apreciated.
Regards and thanks
help nobody?
thanks anyway
Check out the section on unlocking in the rom development section
Peace
yes there are MUCH unlocking possibilitys in the internet
just use google lol xD
MDA Compact 5 unlock
but theyre at 15-20€ about...
well but im rly suprised that your MDA compact 5 is locked
i got one too, buyed from t-mobile (with a contract ofc) it was unlocked since the beginning...
also i knw 4 friends of me- they all buyed a MDA 5 with a contract at t-mobile- ofc their device were also unlocked from the beginning...
so im just wonder ... but well- 15-20€ for unlocking a device shouldnt hurt that much
about the branding-Software:
of cause its possible to remove it- sure
and thats free ^^
debrand -> HSPL
unlock -> HSPL, SIM, Security unlock
all in the topaz rom upgrading section.
Just a question on topic.... Is it risky to buy a MDA V? I mean... That cell is not directly bought by the owner, it's just given from t-mobile within a telephone contract.
Can "owners" sell it? Is this legal? Do they have the property of the cell they are selling? Do they have the right to sell it? Can the MDA V be banned if it turns out that it has been sold?
sure owners can sell a MDA V
its just a phone
same as HTC TD2
just abit "modified" by t-mobile
ofc its legal to sell the phone - if u buyed it in a legal way
No it cant be banned , why should it?
if u buyed the MDA with a contract- and ur selling your MDA (and useing another phone with that contract instead of that MDA) -
T-Mobiles doesnt rly care about it, as long as u paying your contract-Bills ;P
but why should u sell your MDA? its best phone every anyways

That's the point... if you don't pay the bills then what? Should the buyer keep worrying?
There are plenty of MDA V sold on ebay...

may uve get my answer wrong; i mean:
If YOU make a Provider contract with a MDA device
and youre selling your MDA phone- then u still have to pay the contract (simCard useage) monthly to your provider (for example t-mobile)
and t-mobile doesnt care if ure selling your device- as long as the normal contract bills get paid.
u knw- contract bills- a contract in germany at t-mobile for example is a plan for about 24 Months.
a contract contains normally a discount of the MDA phone (for example ur paying only 50€ for the phone) but then youve got a mobilephone simcard with the usage of the providernetworkings- and paying monthly bills; depends on the kind of contract...
------------------
if you mean: Only to buy the phone from t-mobile without any contract (to buy it for the free normal price (atm 399€)) then ofc its another story- cause u only buy a free Phone- and dont make any contract... .
and in that case- of cause you dont have to pay any bills- and of cause t-mobile whouldnt care if ur selling the phone either.
cause its yours anyways... . (thats why you buyed it for 399€ lol)
----------
anyways-> in both cases, the person who buys the phone from YOU (for example on ebay or your friend) , doesnt have to worry anything.
its all okay for him... .
Nope, I meant... What does happen (to the buyer and pda) if the seller sell a MDA V, got with a contract with T-mobile, and after the sale he stops paying the bills before the exipiration of the contract?
I got my MDA V as an upgrade. There is nothing to stop me selling the phone on and continuing to use my old phone. The only thing T-Mobile do, should I stop paying the bill is stop the sim card, the phone will continue to work as they dont block them.
I have HSPL'd my MDA V and its currently running the TESS V2.F rom, but when I power on the phone I still get a T-Mobile startup screen before the TESS rom loads.
So you can HSPL the phone, flash a rom and sim unlock it, but from what I can work out you will still have a T-Mobile boot screen and obviously the T-Mobile branding on front of the phone.
