For anyone else considering it, I called Orange last Friday to unlock my M5000. They charged me £20 which will go on my next bill.
I called last night asking if a letter had been sent yet, and while it was sent Tuesday, it obviously caught up in the Xmas rush. So an operator there just gave me the code over the phone.
Its a simple procedure, just start up the M5000 with a NON-Orange SIM inside, and after the pin unlock (if you have it), a window pops up saying phone is sim locked with an area to type something. You enter the code Orange give you and press OK, then repeat this again, and its done!
The £20 will easily be saved by the ability to put in Foreign SIMs when I go travelling.
Hope this is of help

hi vincexda, is the pin the same for every m5000?
I own a swiss orange m5000 but they don't unloack here for money. do you maybe have uk's orange number - so I can call and try my best?
thanx.
Hi there,
Sorry I've been away for the Xams / New year break.....hence the late reply.
The pin they gave me is apparently linked to the IMEI number, but you can try orange uk on +44 7973 100 150 , I guess its worth a try!

I posted this on another forum but the only replies i got were of people who are having the same problem so i thought i would try here.
I've just taken a new contract out with orange (Dolphin30 + SPV M700) and everything works fine but the wife doesn't like the M700 so i've put the simcard in the old C500. I can make/receive calls and receive text but i can't send text.
When i try to send a text i get the message "Your SMS message has not been sent because the SIM is not valid". Orange have sent a replacement simcard but it's still the same. I rang orange again but they are not interested because it works in the M700.
I've tried the simcard in the following phones.
Nokia 6310i - works
Nokia 6230i - works
3x SPV C500 - won't send text
2x SPV C600 - won't send text
SPV M700 - works
It looks like the simcard won't work with the SPV C series. I've flashed the firmware to the latest by orange uk and tried a hard reset but still no joy.
Has anyone else come across this problem?
Any help appreciated.
regards Joe
I have had a simular problem. I have upgrade my phone and my sim and also have this error message. I have a friend who has the genuine HTC version of this handset. I will try my sim in his handset and post back any success.

Hi, I bought an O2 exec and have loaded on WM6 Crossbow..I am using an O2 pay and go sim, despite putting in the settings for O2 found on the forum..i am still unable to connect to the internet. I called O2 customer services who advised me that the Exec will only work on contract. Does anyone else use O2 pay and go? If so please can you let me know the settings. Or should i get it unlocked and change providers.
no can do
There no way you can get full O2 internet without a contract .....I think you require a different (3g) sim card
