    I've checked his codes and they are right, did you obtain the imei by entering *#06# into the phone ??

    if not can you do that and confirm the IMEI

    Hi Browntoa.
    I got the IMEI code from the box but when I entered *#06# I got the same number: 352930000292583

    Yep - can I do any harm by trying again?

    If it hard locks can the local guy in a van at the local market unlock this type of lock?

    drahcir and Browntoa, no wonder the code's didn't work - it was already unlocked!! The girl in the vodafone shop said it was on the vodafone network but she was obviously wrong.

    Thanks for all your help anyway

    if it doesnt work pm me and ill make sure you got the correct code
    remember you only get 5 tries then you will need someone who has unlocking equipment to do it

    @shonathere is no free method for these like nokias im afraid
    try the local market phone stall, should be £5 - £10
    if you cant get it done pm me and ill sort something out with you

    Thanks for your reply
