Sorry if these are stupid questions.
Is it possible to unlock an LG8110 phone that was on the three network ? Can it be used on an ordinary network eg Tesco ?Divorce all finished- now to start saving for a better future!0 -
@pburnage
yes it can be unlocked but no free codes
i depending on which s/w version it is i can do it if you cant get it done locally or lmk where you are and i may know someone near you0 -
Barnstaple- in deepest darkest Devon
How do I find out what software version it is ?Divorce all finished- now to start saving for a better future!0 -
sorry - dont know anyone down there
to check s/w version
type in 277634#*#
then goto software and version should be there
Or you can just go through the phone menu and find "handset information"
i cant do v104 onwards, but others can
you may lose some of the extras you get with 3 and im not sure about the mms settings etc but should be info about on the net0 -
I have been through this whole threat on the prayer of finding an answer!!! I have a Sony Ericsson T610 that I am trying to unlock. I got the T28 cable to unlock it and bought a credit to use and downloaded the software. At first it appeared that the cable was faulty as my pc and phone weren't connecting so I sent the cable back. Just got the new cable yesterday and they are still not registering. Does anybody know what the problem could be?, have already forked out money for the cable and credit and don't want to have to pay more to take it to a shop to unlock it!
Any help would be greately appreciated, am on the verge of tears!!!!0 -

Yep I'm being stupid but i got a data cable with my lg8120 is this sufficient for unlocking it? provided i get a code and flash an older version of the software because ive got s/w U8120_ v104
any help would be greatly appreciated.

not sure as i use unlocking clip for these but i think you need a powered serial cable
i would have thought you could unlock if you downgrade (if you can find the correct flash files) but it would be a lot less hassle to get someone to unlock with the correct clip (mine wont do v104) as its easy to go wrong and phone wont turn on again0
