What's the best, and cheapest, way to unlock a Sony Ericsson W800i Mobile Phone.
Having just sold my other phone I need to get this one unlocked so that I can put my existing sim in to it.
It's currently on Vodafone, but want to put an O2 sim in it
All advice greatly appreciated

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
20p savers club = £8.00
£2.00 savers club = £0.00 (£100 banked)

just sold my SE on eBay and the person in france says their orange sim wont work in it, was orange branded phone.
any solutions to this?? they phoned orange who refused to unblock it??

It is locked to Orange UK, and possibly locked to the original sim.
It can be unlocked; I have seen the software for sale on Ebay, but I would recommend having it done by post or via a shop. I have used a guy on Ebay, who is based in Telford, Shropshire. He is cheap, quick and reliable.RIP independent MSE.
