  • Hi I have a Samsung G600 which was locked to Vodafone I stupidly used a code given on another website, unlocking it but when I put my Tesco sim in it is limited service only and my IMEI has been reset to 15 0's!
    is there any way of resetting to the original IMEI?? sorry if the answers already here somewhere...
    Thanks

    can i unlock a sony ericsson k850i locked to orange to put an o2 sim in? do i need to give a serial number or anything like that??
    Google for a programme called AERIX and that will do the job as long as you have your USB LEAD that was provided with your S.E Mobile Phone Matey :)
    I'v just did mine and worked a treat,
    I also had another K850i that had "inactive usim" on it is=nstead of the mobile brand (i.e) "3" network and it did that but i still get the "inactive usim" now & again :(

    Does anyone know how to get rid of this TEXT on my phone please ^^^

    Cheers biddy ;)

  • hi everyone...I've got a little LG 0168 'colour bar' phone that I got free from T-mobile. It works with a Virgin SIM card but I'd very much like to use an Orange SIM with it - however it asks me for an unlock code when I put it in.

    Does anyone know if it's possible to unlock this phone for free? I've just moved away from East London so the myriad of market stalls I could go to are not available to me any more, I'm in the middle of nowhere now!

    The information on the back is:
    IMEI: 353999-03-751831-9
    S/N: 909ACNL751831
    GB102

    Thanks very much for reading....

    I'd suggest that you bluff - go back to where you bought it & ask if they can help (as nicely as you can) & hope. Be prepared to say something along the lines of "My 'darling' niece decided to 'play' with the phone" (make them think the child is gonna suffer if they don't fix it). Basically anyone fiddling with the IMEI (without express permission of the maker) or anyone helping them to do so risks a 7 year holiday at Her Majesty's expense...

    PS Nearly forgot why I found this thread - dollyrocks, could you do me a big favour & tell me the model of battery in the GB102 (should be in the format LGIP-XXX??)? Thanks.
    Certain OTT members have caused me to add this disclaimer: all advice given is free of charge & as such should be taken to be IIRC (as I don't spend hours researching all answers :eek: )!

    I'm thinking of ordering the Vodafone VF830 from Tesco as it's the cheapest phone which qualifies for the bonus clubcard points.

    I'm assuming it will be locked to Vodafone. Does anyone know if it's easy to unlock?

    cheers
  • Hi
    I really have no idea about this and would like some help please:
    Son has got a Samsung Tocco lite on a Tesco network and would like it unlocked to accept any other network (but most likely vodaphone).

    The phone stall in my local town quoted me £25 is this reasonable?

    I have looked online and read about a Turbo sim - are these any good? There seem to be a lot of diferent ones, can anyone point me in the right direction please.

    Thanks for your help. :beer:
  • Hi all,
    I was wondering if anyone can help me, me better half got an LG KS360 for xmas but has now discovered its locked to O2, can anyone provide me with a code to unlock it please? I've read through the thread regarding unlocking with the cable using the downloaded programs etc but it seems a little complicated, i don't want to render her phone useless before she's used it. Thanks in advance!

    The imei number is 352074034538016
