Sony Ericcson W850i - HELP in unlocking

24

Comments

  • I didn't know it could not be unlocked. In that case get someone who is a vodafone customer to put in an order for an unlock code for you.

    OR get a vodafone simcard and register it with Vodafone with the W850i and then ask for an unlock code.
  • christmas is for children, PM me the imei number from the phone and i will get you the unlock code (if its in the Vodafone database yet) for it tomorrow, free.

    If you can't get it I just got this email:

    http://www.dummyphones.co.uk/vodaoffer.jpg

    I would be sceptical, but they seem legit. Thought you might be interested.

    You can unlock this phone with the correct cable and the software is available online, just FYI.

    i know james-73 will get the code quicker if its on the database.
    i was just saying that the link shown was charging the same as vodafone would.
    most people who sell vodacodes charge a lot less
