Hey Guys,
I got my S5 today on Vodafone (UK). I thought it'd be unlocked but that isn't true. They said they'd take 7 to 10 days to unlock which is far too long a wait for me. Anyone know of any sites (decent sites) that can do it for me a lot quicker?
Send me your imei on prive. I i will find you unlocking code that will cost you 20euro. Thats ok?

I don't want to hijack your post but ditto on the T-Mobile phones, any information on if their phones are locked or unlocked.
If you buy from carrier retail shop they are normally locked, but if you buy from a third party they come unlocked most of the time. Just ask who ever your buying from.

My friend got his from Vodafone unlocked. The guy at Vodafone said that due to the short supply they were just getting them unlocked from the manufacturer and sending them straight out to customers. This was about 2-3 weeks ago so the situation could have changed.
I received my replacement from Vodafone last Friday, its completely unbounded and unlocked

I got my DHD directly from Vodafone - it is unbranded and unlocked - per my own experience with Vodafone - over the last 2 years or so I got the following phones from Vodafone:
- Touch pro2 - branded but Unlocked
- Windows 7 Trophy - unbranded and unlocked
- Desire HD (DHD) - unbranded and unlocked
so far all phones have been received direct from Vodafone and all have been unlocked - so I think I can make this healthy assumption that HTC phones are pretty much unlocked from Vodafone.
Hope this helps.
Can confirm mobiles.co.uk was unlocked
Got mine from Vodafone online 1 month ago, unbranded and unlocked

Luving this site which I've just stumbled on and answered my question straight away, so here's some info that I've been told from two different T-Mobile UK staff.
Phone is SIM locked but the firmware hasn't been touched (this site has confirmed this too)
The phone will have some kind of T-Mobile logo branding but that's it. I can't wait for my new DHD to turn up now, no stock with T-Mobile and may not be for 3 weeks or more ...... nevermind hay I'll just have to wait.
cheap unlock code via ebay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Motorola-...973?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item19e56bf525 :good:

If you buy directly from O2, Vodafone or Tesco you will get a sim-locked one. In the UK, phones4u, amazon, clove technology, buy mobiles and unlocked-mobiles are all selling the device unlocked.

There's no tesco branding or apps anywhere except in 'about phone' it says the software version is a tesco build.

It doesn't have any branding, but it does have it's own software version. Easy to change it to the same as the full retail handsets though.
Brilliant service, unlocked my Tesco Moto g within10 mins?
Hi guys, i'm from italy, and i was thinking about buying moto g from tesco, as soon as it becomes available, because of its price (155 euro in UK, 229 euro in Italy -.-"). I've a friend in London who can take it.
I discovered that it's sim-locked, and that is possible to unlock. I didn't know this, but if you say yes, well...ok, perfect.
My question is: if i unlock it, what about the guarantee? Somebody told me i would lose it...is it right?
Thanks.

I bought this phone for my wife and it's working great on virgin mobile after unlocking it. Can you tell me though if there is any advantage in changing it to the software that the sim free phones have? Will it still recieve the KitKat update in January if I don't change it?

Can't see it being an issue, tesco don't change anything. Think it's just a system identifier.

Truth is we don't know yet.
It might be that it doesn't get the KitKat update at the same time as the 'unbranded' one. It also might not. Only way to know is wait.
I've changed the the 'retail' ROM on the one I bought to be safe though.
The Mate 9 Pro isn´t sold in Germany (and most other middle-European Countries) due to the fact, they do have a exclusivity with Porsche Design.
Only the Mate 9 Porsche Design with 256 GB, a leather case and dual power supply is sold for exclusive 1,395 EUR
The very, very similar Mate 9 Pro with 128 GB is sold - for example - in Denmark for around 760 EUR. With some exporting sellers it is available for 799 EUR incl. transport to Germany.
But: This can´t be the only availability of the Mate 9 Pro - isn´t it?
Even if most Scandinavian merchants won´t ship to Germany (don´t know why, it is all EU), there always is a way using Borderlinx or similar forwarding services. But I wasn´t able to find a seller in Scandinavia in Internet.
Does anyone have an idea where to buy it in Denmark (or Norway or any other EU Country)?
best regards
Dietmar
Try this shop in Sweden.

thanks but you have to live in Sweden, you can't enter a foreign address nor a foreign mobile phone number... too bad
Try Dustin dk or se, they are the same group as CDON. Also expansys dk is very good and trustful site.

I have heard this is a common problem,I took my sim card tray out(gently)and it had snapped inside,Tried all sorts to get the broken part out to no avail.
Went to LG here in Bangkok,Thailand and they told me I had apparently bought a Taiwan model from a local Thai dealer (wasn't told this at time and they wouldn't do anything,even told me Warranty with Taiwan LG,go back there ha ah).
If they fix it,they are talking of changing the board as the sim tray is attached to the and they say it is most likely damaged.
Is there anyway I can report this,as phone 6 months old and have read many forums that people have had this happen to,overall terrible service from LG not to fix it within warranty.
In Poland LG fix this problem with warranty, I have no problem with this.
