    I did read the first post in the thread but I thought it was still worth a try - you never know - someone may have found a code since that post was submitted/updated.

    Many thanks for your work in this area, but some of us tiptoe around techie stuff in cloudy ignorance, while accepting the wondrous functions such things can perform for us.

    Have read your list, but cannot find help for a Vodafone VK530 camera phone.

    There are no instructions with it - it was the camera function that was necessary.
    I want to change to a Tesco SIM card(already done with old phone - thanks to this site)but will i lose the extra clever bits that this phone is supposed to do.
    Rang the Vodafone registration line yesterday and did not like all the personal info they asked for, even d.o.b. All my protests were met with the blanket answer ' for your security'. Rubbish, but there is no point in targeting monkey, rather than organ grinder.

    Thankyou for any help/advice or How To Use instructions if possible -

    do you mean you want to unlock it or you want a users manual for it?
    if you want to unlock it then only direct unlock - you can do this yourself with a cable like this

    Thankyou drahcir -
    and i see you're online at the moment, too. I'll hang on for a bit in case you can help further.
    Sorry, I really am techilliterate - what is 's/w' which you say is available on the Web?
    I'd only use thus abbrev. for 'shortwave'.(ah, the Golden Days of Wireless)

    -ah, is it a typo?(like my 'thus'/for 'this'?)and does it read 'see what is ...etc.'?
