Hi everyone.
I have an Orange SPV M700 with WM6, Tengo Free and Tom Tom v6. All working nicely, thanks to all the help on this forum!!
I have one last problem, i have ordered a t-mobile PAYG sim card so i need to unlock my phone for it to work.
I have read the big thread about the CID unlocker and seems some people have been having problems with it uncluding myslef.
Can anyway give me the download that will work or a link to it??? I just want to to able to use t-mobile sim in my phone, but don't want to give orange £20 for privelage.
Cheers a lot guys.
As far as I've been lead to believe once you've flashed the WM6 you should be sim unlocked. That may (assuming I'm correct) be why you've had problems CID unlocking after updating as you're already unlocked.
To upgrade to WM^ i used the three files at the top pf the related thread. Not sure if any of those CID unlocked. Tried a virgin mobiel sim in it and didn't work?
Some phones won't unlock the SIM even with CID Unlockers. HTC, O2 and Voda tend to be unlocked by default; Orange and T-Mobile phones are supplied SIM locked.
I've done the WM6/Radio update and my SPV M700 remains SIM locked to Orange.
I think the only effective way over this is to pay £20 to IMEICheck for a full SuperCID Unlock. Their service is superb if you are willing to pay the price!
Download this and follow the instructions (1 step really) ... http://pof.eslack.org/trinity-unlocker/
Mine is an Orange M700, was SIM and CID locked with original Orange ROM. Ran the above unlocker and could use any SIM on Orangae ROM. Then updated with WM6 and new radio ROM and the phone is still SIM unlocked and SuperCID unlocked. No need to pay any money for this simple thing.

Cool- I'd missed that one! Know he did one for the Hermes
One thing to watch if you are paranoid about Warranties, is that this version works by updating the Radio ROM, which technically is a warranty breach (though as most Orange Techs are so ignorant about these devices, they'd probably not know anyway!)
nice am goin to give it a try
Hi

I have no idea how come my O2 Orbit became sim unlocked. I didn't do anything apart from upgrad the OS to wm6 official by using SPL (USPL) v.01. And it was sim locked before. Now, I am using an orange sim in it and it works perfectly.
So, maybe your orbit has already sim unlocked. try it.
Erm all O2 phones are SIM unlocked.
Really. Sorry for posting this.
Hello,
I got an old Orange SPV M1000. But it's locked on Orange NL SIM cards, while I have an Telfort NL SIM.
It's currently running the default WM 2003 OS.
I have two question:
Is there a way to unlock it? (i.e. by flashing)
I've seen that WM5 en WM6 can run on it. On this forums. Is there a speed difference between 4.2, 5 and 6? (128MB ram + 2GB SD)
If I download one of the roms on this forum, is there just something like a setup or is there a special way to flash it?
Thanks!

sim locks and roms are not really related read here how you sim unlock it
and should you wish to flash it with a new rom
putting on a new rom dont unlock it
and putting on a rom in general dont lock it
Hi
A friend of mine has given me an Orange SPV M600 as he's upgraded.
He's had the handset unlocked by Orange, so my O2 sim card works fine in it.
Just wondering how I can debrand the firmware and just have the unbranded factory firmware on it?
And could anyone help me to set it up for use with O2 pay and go GPRS and MMS settings?
Many many thanks!!
Debrand
Hiya,
Debrand meaning you do not want to see the Orange startup screen right? Then you will need to change your ROM to one of the stock ROMs. Please refer to upgrading ROMs section of forum for low down on that. Loads of better ROMs to try from too.
Cheers!
