Here's how the story goes:
I bought a brand new MDA Pro a few months ago. I tried to use it as a satnav with iGO but of course that was not possible because the 64mb RAM of the device was not enough. So I decided to upgrade to 128 mb of RAM and I started searching here in xda-developers. I read the section of the Wiki about upgrading and also I found a couple of threads. Well I found out that the best option for me was to send my device to a guy called SHAKAL007 who is located in Czech Repuplic which is the nearest to Greece where I live.
His name was in the wiki's list about the shops around the world that can do the RAM upgrade. I contacted him via email and he replied me immediately to all my questions after a few minutes (very suprising!). He told me that he would need a couple of days to finish the upgrade (software and hardware part) and that he wants 74 Euros for the upgrade and the chips including the P&P fees to send the pda back to me. I found the price very reasonable and agreed to pay him via Paypal immediately as he asked me and the next day I posted my precious device via registered mail.(How stupid I was that I paid extra money for registered post).
After a few days he told me that he received the device and as soon as possible he would do the upgrade and he would send me my pda back to me. I waited a few days but no news from SHAKAL007. I sent him another email asking him if he has finished the upgrade. A few days later he responded to my emails (in the meanwhile I had sent him a few more emails) and he told me that the hardware part of the upgrade has finished but he had a few “software” problems that he finally succeeded to solve and that he would send the pda back to me. That was all.
Please notice that the pda was sent to him on the 26th of November and after more than a whole month I have sent him tons of emails but get no response. In the beginning he claimed that he drives a truck and cannot be online because he is not home. Well I think that is a kind of trick so we dont bother him. That's all RUBBISH!!! I know that he logins in xda-developers all the time. And when I see he's online in xda-developers, I send him emails in his personal email address and of course I get no response but he is just keeping ignoring me.
Hey guys who is this SHAKAL007? As I can see he has only 4 posts since 2006 he became a member of our very helpful to everybody community and all of them are related to the upgrade. The posts are about advertising his business. So in my opinion, this guy has not offered anything to this community but he just uses it to make money and steal other people's devices. I dont know why but perhaps he sells them to Ebay(?). The most funny (or tragical) was that when I was sending all these emails and he was ignoring me I was sending him private messages here in xda-developers as theseas asking him about info on the upgrade. Of course he didnt know that "theseas" is the guy from Greece that has sent him his uni. So the same time that he was ignoring my emails, the same time he was answering me to all my (fake of course) questions here in xda-developers through private messages. Then I was started to think that SHAKAL007 is a SCAMMER because he was still looking for other victims to steal their devices, to do them what? Sell them to Ebay and make money?
I was the best customer and paid him promptly the same day via Paypal. Well SHAKAL007 is not only a SCAMMER but IMPUDENT because he asked me to pay him 74 Euros just to steal my device!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Of course I know that the mistake is mine and that I am responsible for that but I saw his ****ing name in the wiki. I thought he is confirmed. Who wrote his name in the wiki list, I suppose that he did it for himself.
Perhaps I am wrong but I feel that I had to open this thread just to share my bad experience with you and help you not to loose your pda and your money because as I told you he asks money too!!!!
Perhaps I am wrong but I told you exactly what has happened to me until now and all that I know and have seen about Him until now.
IF I AM WRONG AND WILL EVER RECEIVE MY DEVICE UPGRADED AND IN FULL WORKING ORDER THEN I WILL EDIT THIS POST AND APOLOGISE TO SHAKAL007. I THINK THIS IS FAIR FOR ME AND FOR HIM.
BUT FOR NOW MY ADVICE IS NOT SEND YOUR PRECIOUS UNIVERSAL TO THIS SCAMMER!!!!!!!
MOD EDIT: Removed real life names, see my post below.
this post is reserved for me and I will edit it to apologise to SHAKAL007 if I ever receive my device upgraded and in full working order.
That is very sad hearing about your device. Why dont you approch the Paypal customer support to file a fraud ? Paypal will have their local branches of the service provider to take a legal action. Try to include Paypal in this case as soon as possible. I think he should be banned from our beloved community if found guity.
Well as I can see right now SHAKAL007 signed in in xda-developers today and his last activity here was at 6:44 AM. Of course he has seen the thread because I have posted a visitor's message in his user profile but still no response even after opening a whole thread about him. Also still no response to my emails.

Dealt with Paypal after someone on these forums took my money and admitted he 'forgot' to send the Universal to me. I asked for my money to be returned to me, but he stopped contact and kept my money. Well, Paypal investigated, concluded in my favor and recovered.... USD 0.77 out of USD$150 I paid. And that was the end of it.

Thanx for your support. As you can see this SCAMMER doesn't ignore only me but ALL OF US who are honest and genuine members of this community. I suppose that he thinks that we ALL are stupid because after a whole thread that I have opened he keeps on ignoring us. As I told you maybe I am mistaken and I am wrong while accusing him. Why he doesnt post a reply just to protect himself and his business he has setup in our beloved forum?
PLEASE CHECK HIS USER PROFILE AND NOTICE THAT HE LOGGED IN TODAY and his last activity was at 6:44 AM.
His user profile: http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=276576&vmid=8281
Diamond owner here, but couldn't help but notice this thread as I was scrolling down. This is his supposed address taken from the guest comments in his user profile. The road doesn't seem to match up with the area he mentioned:
http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&h....077646&spn=0.003338,0.010514&z=17&iwloc=addr
Maybe someone can find his IP address and 'pay' him a visit?
EDIT: Just noticed the following. But street number doesn't match up with the provided address.
http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&h....081852&spn=0.053364,0.168228&z=13&iwloc=addr
EDIT2: To get the second result, just type 'vitezna' in Google Maps. Something's fishy. I don't understand the address standard of Czech Reublic so maybe a Czech guy can make sense of it.
Waow that sounded really strange. well i guess admins and mods should beaware of his ip incase he fleds his account and goes under another new account here at xda.. i hope you guys will manage to solve this mystery and i hope justice will be brought forward..
AS much as I sympathise with this situation we cannot allow sensitive info such as that posted to be on our forum. There isnt any evidence which shows beyond a doubt that this guy is a scammer, suggest further action is taken along the correct routes.
The info has been removed so xda-developers.com is not in any silly legal situations later on due to this thread. I trust members will comply with this small request?
Has anybody contacted the website host, ISP of the whois entry etc...??

as i have already told to all of the guys here i thank them for their support. perhaps mrvanx's opinion to remove personal and sensitive info is correct but i dont think that it matters because all this information is in the section of the wiki about htc uni ram upgrade. this info has been provided by the xda member that has my device right now exactly for this reason: to be able to approach him so we can upgrade our devices. also you can find this info in his personal site which is dedicated to the upgrade. the link of this site is also in the wiki.
I also agree with mrvanx that we are not sure if this guy is a scammer. I have said it in my first post but until now from all i now and from all that has happened to me by him this guy is a scammer and for me he will be a scammer until the opposite will be proved. And the opposite for me is to get back my device upgraded and in full working order.
Hi all, sorry to hear the bad news, but jus my bit... Mods, wold it not be safe to "remove" shakals007´s name from the upgraders list in the wiki???
Again, just my bit, don´t mean to annoy anyone...
All the best and good luck in getting your device back...
Willy
Here are the steps you need to take if you paid by PayPal.
1. File a dispute claim with PayPal (You are allowed to do this for 45 days from the payment. After 45 days you are out of luck).
2. Go to the open dispute claim and then escalate the claim for PayPal review (You can escalate it any time after filling a dispute claim. The maximum time allowed is 20 days, after that you are out of luck).
3. He has to respond to PayPal. Describe your situation in the PayPal claim.
4. Either he has to ship the item to you with tracking number or you will get your money refunded.
Hope this is helpful!
KOR!
He will receive 74 euro refund and than what? Paypal will not cover the money that hasnt been sent through it...
My advice to theseas, try to go to your police station and report stolen phone to them with IMEI number of your uni if you have a box or a phone store bill... They have the authotiries to forward your request to the police in any EU country. It's a long shot but you never know...
I lost my uni last summer. I set on my scooter, put uni in front pocket and when I arrived to the destination uni was gone Real stupid, and tomake things worse i diddnt have the box with IMEI number so th police could find it easily in my country...
I have already filed a claim through Paypal but I also agree with Duke Nukem that Paypal isnt gonna give me my uni back but Paypal is just the first step. Have also sent again an email to SHAKAL007 and I hope to get a response this time. I am sure that he follows this thread, at least at weekend if he really works as a driver and is at home only at weekend as he has told me but this time he is not stupid to login with his user name. Perhaps I shouldnt have written that I know when he logins in xda-developers by watching his user profile. Now he knows and he wont use his account to login.

Thank god! Man you finally spoke to me! You answered to my last email that I sent you yesterday and you finally posted here to protect yourself. The only problem is that at least me I dont understand what you want to say because obviously you have used an automated translator. If it is possible rewrite this post using simple english like mine or ask a friend of yours that speaks english to help you. If anybody understands please help me guys.
Well I have said in this forum that I didnt like accusing you but tell me what you would do man if you had sent your pda and your money to someone that doesnt respond to your emails for a whole month. It's quite simple what you would think of him. As I can understand from your automate translated english you say that you were not online. No man you were online here quite often (I am not fool and nobody here is) and as I have said everytime I knew that you were online here in xda-developers I was sending you emails and you were ignoring me. Even the time that I opened this thread you logged in and of course you saw everything but even then you didnt say anything. Everybody knows that you were online that time. If you really had problems why you didnt tell me? Why you didnt tell me when I was almost begging you for an answer to my emails. I was begging you because I didnt want to open this thread. I am not sure that I would get an answer from you or my device (I havent received it yet) if i hadnt opened this thread. Well I dont have to dispute with you about anything, I dont really care anymore. The only thing that matters for me is to receive my device. And I am waiting for facts because I am tired of words. Words are for free, dont cost anything.

I suppose here you mean that you apologise because you were NOT able to send the pda back to me earlier. Because 17th of January is quite late, it has been almost 2 months.
@SHAKAL007: you might just have cleaned your name Hope all goes well and theseas get's back his phone, he really have been concerned. I retreat my words and accusations. Due to your business i hope you could be more answerable when you get questions and find sometime to explain deadlines you will hold. that would make the customer more peacefull
well i do not understand your english fully by what you wrote on this thread but i believe you used a form of language translator on the internet..
many days have passed now .
what was the overall outcome ?
was he a tea leaf or just a bad businessman
I'm glad that it finished

Maybe he really got caught up in bad circumstances, but what was he doing on this forum if he didn't have the translator to send you the messages
Is the device OK? Is there 128mb?
**UPDATE , I DID GET THE CODE HOWEVER I WOULD TAKE TIME TO READ THIS THREAD BEFORE USING THESE GUYS**
These are the guys that claim on their website....
Unlock any HTC phone locked to any network worldwide instantly!
# Full money back guarantee if we fail at our end.
A word of warning on these guys , they take your money and then when they cannot provide a code your phone they make a few excuses and then stop responding to PM's or emails , the user on this forum is ferraripassion and the website is htccode.com they also use totalgsm software. Here is another site they operate under http://www.simunlock-htchero.com/buy.html
My phone is locked to the three network in the UK and the IMEI number is not in their database.
I am sure when everything runs smoothly they are fine , however the judge of a good company is when something goes wrong !!
They are based in Banaglore according to whois , might pay them a visit as I am over there next week
Anyway would be great if you could make this a sticky so that other people at least deal with these guys with their eyes open.
I will update this thread if they either refund my money or if they provide the unlock code both are promises that they made on the website.
Mark
I fully agree that they are not very hot on communication, but I don't think they're fraudulent. I got my code from them a while ago, but it did take a week or so and communication was very poor.
Regards.
Dave
Well i am at two weeks and waiting ....
Mark
and let me just say this, I emailed another site THIS MORNING asking for unlock with this phone, and guess what !!! its the same people. See below for what they say when i ask if they can unlock phone, they dont realise its the same person... inbetween time they have ignored my emails and PM's about the original purchase.
Can you unlock this phone HTC Hero , locked to Three UK
IMEI number below.

to me
Hi
Yes, you have to purchase the code on www.htccode.com
- Show quoted text -
regards
www.totalgsm.org
i've had the same experience, code not in their database. Please wait 3-4 days and PM Ferrari person again. So i did, but no reply.
did you ever get an unlock solution ?
not as of yet, i bought the code a week ago thursday
i used htccode, the client generated the unlock key almost instantly. I found that it didnt work in the end and got a refund. But i found out my Orange UK Hero had the new ROM which used orange's own unlock algorithm. All i did was downgrade it and flash it with MoDaCo's custom rom and the key worked fine.

Hi
Your code has been sent.
code recieved and works
Another one here !!!
I'm in the same position, no code, no money.....
I don't know what happened, but is very sad to me to waste my money for nothing....
Greetings
i got the code late last night and it works for htc on THREE , seems this thread hurried them along.
Mark
tried to get my code earlier but said my IMEI wasn't recognised. Emailled ferrari passion off here and sent the crap through they need via that gsm server.
I will add however it is an incredibly poor show that they take money for a service they don't even know for certain they can give i.e whether or not they can unlock your phone, and can only clarify this once they have your money.
I'm sure the word "fraud" fits in there somewhere...from wiki "In the broadest sense, a fraud is an intentional deception made for personal gain ..."
they do not offer any explanation to the delays which is the annoying bit.
In the end I did get my code so they can do it when pushed .... I just think they fail to communicate when things do not go to plan.
In my case it was three weeks of it will be tomorrow or no replies ... I post this thread and raise a pay-pal dispute and it is solved within one day.
At least this thread will let people see what kind of service they offer and then they can make their own mind if they want to spend the money.
Mark
Yes i hear you mate, well we'll see, at the end of the day its £14 so i was prepared to take the risk. I'm also a pain in the arse when it comes to getting ripped off so i'm sure i'll get somewhere. It clearly says on their website that they can unlock htc heroes on orange, they take £14 off me then say they can't....hmmm
Like I have said before. Phones are being manufactured everyday and Orange etc.. rolls them out in batches.
It is impossible to update the database everyday with so many IMEI's.
So this happens monthly or once in 2 weeks.
@mark
I did tell you that I will email you once the code has been obtained and that has been done.
Now the main database has been updated with 2 million records, so there should be no problem with the automated system.
@crazy email me your IMEI no, will have a look.
And am 100% no one else would have got you the code this fast. You can still try with other providers who are on the net, you will get a response saying code not in database and you will be offered a refund and not a code.
Your totally missing the point here mate, it says on your website "Unlock any HTC phone locked to any network worldwide instantly!". Not in two weeks or when you can be bothered to find the code.
What your doing is like royal mail advertising next day special delivery and then saying well we'll deliver it when we get round to it, can't guarantee when though.
Your are clearly advertising a service you cannot provide or am i missing some smallprint here?
I emailed you my IMEI as soon as the software failed to generate my code? However I shall "instantly" do it again.
@ crazy
The mistake is at your end.
You have not read the instructions.
The code has been generated , but you have not clicked on get using the software.

@ Fradulentpassion
Yes it does work now your right, however from the information i sent you last night when i tried you will know exactly what i did? Seems funny how a quick rant on here has got results! You still fail to aknowledge the short fallings in your service though which is the issue here?
Thanks anyway. For all those people wondering, code received, orange htc hero now unlocked. Result
Hey Everyone
As a continuined support to this forum.
From now on , I will be offering 1 free unlock every monday for the X8 device.
The unlocking is instant and it done remotely with the USB cable provided with the phone.
Even if your have counter blocked your phone( Exceeded the no of attempts ), this method will unlock it.
How does this work?
Make a post here, contact me by PM. If you are a good contributer to this XDA-Forum, i will provide you the free unlock.
Give it a shot, you might be lucky. This happens on every monday, everyweek starting from tomorrow
I'm not particularly hopping I will win this "free unlock" as this is my first post here so my contribution is 0 and in all honestly I don't even know how I could contribute: I don't understand how to do 90% of the stuff posted here and am unemployed, so kinda low on money to donate.
Anyway, I decided to try my luck, but would like to ask something as it's not the first time I see "offers" like this and hopefully others can answer me this aswell: how do I know this isn't some kind of scam?
Thank you.
Hi, My contribution to the forum is not the greatest, and even large, since only learn Java (SDK), and my bad English, but I want "free unlock"

hhehe yeah free for all is not possible but trust me it worths every penny, the service is way too fast (not like other support centers I've seen), ferraripassion is way too helpful, unlock procedure is fast and with fast i mean no more than 1 minute plugging your phone in recovery mode is slower than unlocking it.
you should really try this service
I also would like to try my luck
hi i need a unlock code for my xperia x8
what's the meaning with this unlock code?
after typing unlock code your sim lock will be unlock you can use it any gsm provider in the world
Can i get unlock for my x8
Very kind offer imo.
Another indicator that XDA has done more for android phones than any of the phone manufacturers or providers ever have.
This is not an attempt at getting the freebie. Mine's not SIM-locked anyways.
Ok, please, one unlock code for my wife's xperia x8
I would like to be able to unlock my phone.That would be great.Thanks

Hey guys,
I donated this morning to get FRM pro/full and was hoping to load up my first ROM today but I screwed up the donation. I saw the link that I was supposed to click on to get the password but like an idiot I closed it expecting to receive an email with that info. I'm hoping there is some other way to get my password to get the full version. I did PM Angdroid here on the xda (I think, my sent shows 0...) but I don't have many posts so hopefully he doesn't think I'm a scammer. I also tried him on twitter (again a new account since I really have no use for the service) and sent an email to the paypal address associated with the donations. I have my transaction ID and everything but I'm just not sure the best way to get in touch with the team to get the password...without seeming to be a stalker/scammer I really did expect an automated email with the information on how to get the full FRM, should have paid attention better I guess.

If your itching to get a ROM going on your DX today, the Lite version will work just as well until you get things figured out with your Pro password.
Thanks, I figured as much. Just thought it would be better to start out with the full app but it probably doesn't matter. I just wish I knew what I was supposed to do in this situation. I don't want to spam the guys and sound like tool but at the same time I kinda feel like an automated email setup could be implemented to prevent this. Granted it is my fault for not reading ahead in the directions on their site which does say to click on the link to get the password.
Hey guys I have a promo code for moto x. I will give it to first senior member or above who replies here.
GOGOGO
Offer it to any member please. Every member deserves the ability to save $150, especially considering that code disintegrates at midnight.

Ok. I just hope that person won't be one-post-member.

I have an unused one. PM me if you want it,
I have a similar post up and it's had 83 views and not one person sent me a PM. I'm not even asking them to do anything crazy or taxing. A simple PM will result in a code and these lazy people aren't even going to do that. I don't want just anyone to grab the code and use it. I want a developer to grab it and use it to create new content for this awesome device. Is that too much to ask for? More so, I don't want some clown to take the code and then try to sell it on Ebay or CL.
I'm just trying to keep things honest and beneficial to the XDA community. Understand though, I already have a Moto X and I won't use this code. If it disintegrates at midnight I couldn't care less. I'm just wanting to help push this Moto X community forward. You can think whatever you want but I'm not concerned.
I got this for my wife who changed her mind at the last minute this morning and I'm trying to be nice and give it away. Don't look a gift horse in the mouth.

Not everyone is a dev on XDA, my friend as though that we be wonderful if it were true, it isnt. Likelihood is, any dev who wanted one KNEW they wanted one, and thus have already acquired a code and arent looking for one with 8 hours left till the deadline. please. Dont let the code disintegrate. Let some poor soul who is still unfortunately looking, get it. No one is going to attempt to buy/sell these codes with such a tiny time frame left. Would you?

Dude, I get what you're saying and I definitely don't think that everyone on XDA is a developer. That's not the point that I was making at all. I want to give the code away and all I was asking was for someone to PM me for it. I know that there are people who want to develop for the Moto X and would consider buying one at this discounted price to be able to do that. Obviously I'm not planning on selling it or I would've instantly have done that. It drives me crazy that people are even doing that in the first place.
Two Promo Codes Expiring midnight (EST) tonight
I have two Moto-X $150 Promo Codes, which I am ready to share whoever sends me the PM first. One Code per Member. I would request to please ask for the Code, only if you are 100% sure you are going to buy the Moto-X today.

I have 1 too just in case
I'm blown away that we have codes available for people to use and no one is contacting us to snag one. SMH. Just a couple of days ago people were foaming at the mouth to get a promo code.

Gave my code to "royopata"
Aww man. I just saw this. I registered here just to comment that I wanted one (and I don't have any plans of selling it, mind you. I don't have a Moto X). Oh well. Now that I have an account here (instead of being a "guest" when viewing posts), might as well join in on this.
