Hi, some please help,
i have a MDA Pro but it's Simlocked?
what can i do for take it out?
Thank's for the help...
Sory if something is wrong, my english is no so well ...
if you need a programms or games for your PDA, i can help...
It depends on where/how you got your MDA Pro. T Mobile UK WILL unlock in-contract handsets for a fee (£15 or £20, seems a little random), but only for the contract-holder and only if the handset came with that contract.
I've just helped a chap outside the UK get an MDA Vario as I was out of contract and needed a web'n'walk type tariff. The same day that I signed the contract and collected the handset, T Mobile agreed to send me the unlock code. They said it should take two to four weeks to arrive.
HTH
I have it from Germany, one people bay it for me in the shop, but it have SimLock, and i have no idea what i can make with it... :roll:
imeicheck offers unlock for the Vario..
not for the mdapro yet .. but can't be far off hehehe
Only thing is, to do it a bodged way from imei check costs £20...
To get a proper code from T-Mobile costs £15...
:lol:

Well, I don't know where you get that, but in Holland T-Mobile charges 120 Euro's to unlock it.
yup
they charge 15 pounds in the uk if you can prove that the vario or mdapro is bought together with your contract, and it takes 28 days to get the code :shock:
Most people buy these phones without contract or 2ndhand, that means they have to find an alternative way to unlock the phone. then 20pounds is cheap.
and in holland they are totally and untterly looney... they dare to ask 100euros +
So as soon imeicheck has a 'bodged' way to unlock my mda pro i will gladly pay 20 pounds to do so.
:twisted:
It took a total of 3 days for me to get my unlock code from T-Mobile. They were more than helpful about it, and they even sent it me on paper the day after!
SIMlock
Well, that SIM lock it seems to bother quite some people, including me. My suggestion is do not buy locked MDA Pro, Only unlocked. the cheapest ones with no contracts and unlocked are PDAhuis.nl for 709 euro the same price you pay for a locked in e-bay or other auction sites I you include transport unlocking calling faxing and all that.
From what I looked arround is that the simlock depend on IMEI (wich can be manipulated then with any working unlock code can be unlock) has anyone tried something like that?

lol
hej mate,

being dutch myself i heard they have waitingtimes which are increddible.. if you get it at all LOL
cheapest in holland is smartphonestunts.nl.. and that is 750 euros for a tmobile locked one :twisted: but they deliver!!

Sure, rumors are rumors so you heard. But did you buy something from them? 11 days and saving 200euros it is somethiing to consider and it is unlocked.
My experiance with T-Mobile Austria is 35 days and still counting to receive the unlock code and not for free to pay 104 euros plus post expences what you say about it?

lol
i know mate... still have a motorola Mpx in order LMAO

Pls, can you to whom did you send the fax? Anything specifi you have written in the fax?
Thanks and regards
* call T-mobile Deutchland +49-1805330160
* you have to try until you get an english speaker and provide: IMEI number, phone number, email adress, name
* fax the invoice at +49-6188828556 and write the same infos onto the bill
* wait for the unlock code
does calling t-mobile germany actualy work if you are not from germany? Even when you didn't buy the phone in germany?
The costs of the unlocking from a german T-mobile MDA pro is 99 Euro

Seems to me he means you can get it for free too if you got an agreement with t-mobile and if you do not even live in germany.
Is that true?

yes, i'm in italy and bought the mda pro online. and I don't speak german.
My O2 Exec was stolen yesterday and my insurance company need me to find out how much a replacement costs. Unfortunately, O2 insist that as they are not available on a PAYG basis they cannot give me a phone-only price. :roll:
Is there anywhere that is selling these online without a contract so that I can provide my insurers with the info they need? I don't care what it's branded as and I don't really care how much it is, I just need an official published price.
Thanks in advance.
I think you can only buy one second hand.
Surely somebody must be selling them without a contract...?
at eBay you can find it....
I know you can get used ones on eBay, but I need a reputable seller who's selling them new as this is for an insurance claim.

They sell them sim free here at £549

Expansys has 401 of them in stock (supposedly!) - http://www.expansys.com/product.asp?code=119353
Thanks guys, just what I needed.
Can I buy XDA Exec in the U.K. without being O2 customer? That is just pay and go without being an O2 customer or a U.K. Citizen..
I am thinking of going to the U.K. just to purchase a machine.
My girl is going to Germany next month and I know Jasjar can br purchased there as well but I wouldn't want a german keyboard.
Of couse you can. But won't your phone just get blocked when you have it back in Turkey.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=54910&highlight=imei
what is the point of going to uk in order to get exec??..loads of e-stores sell them or check out ebay.co.uk
cheers, cudo
Hello,
TO: kevino
They no longer block phones in Turkey. They stopped doing so about 2 weeks ago.
TO: cudo
The point is not to pay outrageous taxes and be tourched with Turkish customs for 8 hours.
Anyway,
Where is the cheapest place to purchase it in the U.K. ?
Or cheapest online store? I don't mind buying the Qtec 9000 since it's the same thing.
I still think that the best way is to get one off ebay..and the seller may send it as a gift so there is gonna be no tax and custom. the other thing is ebay is the cheapest
Find someone in UK you trust with £300 and have them buy it for you.
Then have them ship it to you as a gift. You can then prove that you aren't to pay customs on it with one phonecall to your friend. Your friend in the UK can phone Turkish customs and tell them that it was bought off ebay by them as a gift for you, without mentioning the money that you sent them for it.
If you would like the numbers of some really nice Turkish people over here that might help you out (and actually speak your language lol) I can send you them I have a few Turkish friends that would be trustworthy with that kind of money.
Of course, this assumes that you trust me to give you other people's numbers and not be pulling a fast one on you to grab your £300 ...
It is all about trust, isn't it?
Doing it this way has to be cheaper than flying over here just for a phone.
Gift exemption only appies under a certain value. Unless you are willing to take the chance of declaring the value as about £20, you'll probably still get taxed.
BUT, if you DO take that risk and declare it as low value, they may pull it anyway and question why a device like that is only worth £20.
Your choice
hi preditor.
thank you so much for getting back to me...
i sent you a PrivateMessage let me know..
thanks.
Hi friends..A friend of mine is going to hong kong. Can you tell me where i can get cheap or even second hand hermes there?I want to buy one.He could buy one for me there..Thanks for your help
Can someone help me?I am willing to pay up to 3250 hong kong dollars.
Cingular sells refurbished 8525's .. 199 bucks.
Is it in hong kong? But cingular is based only in u.s.Isn't it? The friend is going only to hong kong
around $3100-3300 HKD at mongkok to have a Softbank X01HT(HERM200)
wan chai would would be a good place to go too....sham shui po would also be a nice place.. shop 188 would be another place too..
So buy one from Cingular and just Unlock it..
Will the softbank x01 ht already be unlocked or do i have to unlock it? How much to unlock? And where to unlock?
unlocking is free with programs from here..
He'd need an AT&T/Cingular account to buy an 8525 direct.

you can buy softbank x01ht at "sincere podium" in mong kok. it's a place famous for selling mobile phones at cheap prices. it's within 5 minute's walk from mong kok mtr station.
the price for an unlocked unit is about HK$3,180. If you can unlock it yourself, the price can be cheaper (about HK$2,800).
details here: http://www.topwebdesignltd.com/shopping/plaza-1/kmksin.htm
hope this helps
Why is it so cheap?Is it because the products are fake?I hope i will not be getting any problem when the friend returns back..I think i'll take the unlocked unit. Any other suggestions? Are there any risk of developing the screen alignment problem?
Does anyone know where to buy unlocked Softbank x01ht in Tokyo? How much?
Currently, I’m in Tokyo for several days. I plan to give this Softbank for my girlfriend. Thanks you in advance.
Hi friends.The friend postponed his trip to next month..So, can anybody tel me where i can get the imate or htc version of the hermes cheaply in hong kong?(less or equal to 3250 hong kong dollars). The friend told me that i may end up loosing my money if the softbank breaks. Imate or htc may cover me through warranty.. Cheers!
Can someone tell me?

Even as a Hong Kong people I hesitate to suggest ppl to get one in HK now.
Bad shop sells even lower than $3,200, but there's problem like IMEI not matching, ROM v1.14 issue (You could see a lot of those post around).
If you think it is okay, go to those shop within Computer Arcade - it charges around $3,300 - $3,400, but not like those shark shops.
I forgot to mention that i need an unlocked version. Is there a probability that it will relock itself when my friend returns back?
Any reply?

Atrix will work anywhere
You need to check if the one you're looking to buy is already able to use any carriers SIm... if it isn't then there are people on ebay who will be able to unlock it for you and it should only cost you a few pounds.
