Unlocking XDAIIs from O2 - possible? - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General

I am planning to get a XDAIIs in a very short time coz I will be travelling overseas 1 week later.
Because of that I need to unlock my XDAIIs......anyone tried to approach O2 and get his IIs unlocked (for a fee or whatever)?

Seems XDA II can be "unblock", how about IIs?
Thanks everyone!
PS: I can't see MDA III from T-Mobile UK on its website, or in shop few days ago, is it really released in UK? If it is unlockable for 15pounds I am happy to pay for it, but I like the black colour of IIs more.
Thanks again!

Hi all, newbie to the forum here.
I too like the black casing of the XDA IIs as opposed to the MDA III, PDA2k, etc. and would like to know if it's possible to unlock this phone.
I'd also like to know if, once unlocked, it's possible to put a different ROM on the device, like the imate PDA2k ROM or the UK MDA III ROM.
In reading through the forum, it seems that there's not much information about the XDA IIs yet, but any information that can be provided would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Yeah - bumping that request - got my IIs now, and would lurve someone to manage to unlock??
I am going mad with O2 Cust Service Hotline
"It is impossible"
"12 months later"
"Bring it to O2 Store they are happy to do for you straight away"
Anyone have some experiences in unlocking phone with O2?
Please tell us the :technique:
I hope xda-developers.com can develop an unlock tool specially for Blue Angel. Many thanks.

Which XDAII?

O2 informed me today that I'm entitled to an 'Advantage' upgrade. As I currently have the XDAII, I'm wondering if it is worth my while upgrading to the IIs or the IIi or just staying as I am. From the specifications on the O2 website, I can't see a whole lot of difference between then (except may be the addition of wireless access).
What does the group recommend?
wait for universal you'll sure see a difference with that
XDA II & XDA Exec
Thanks Rudegar,
I contacted O2.ie today and found out that while the XDA Exec is just out on the market in the UK, it's only in testing in the Irish Network presently. I hate feeling like I'm being fed BS but it seems to me that if the phone works in the UK it will work here! The techonolgy is the same. The parallel to that is that surely they wouldn't release a phone in the UK that couldn't roam?
Any suggestions for prodding the Irish O2?
Is there anyone in the UK on this list who has purchased (or is about to purchase) and XDA Exec? If so, would they mind enquiring off O2 UK whether they can roam in Ireland (as opposed to Northern Ireland) with their new phone? Better still, if they can get it in writing that their new phone will roam in Ireland then O2 IE haven't a leg to stand on.

well maybe since it have utms/3g support they are testing that ?

Xda IIi Unlocking

Hi everyone,
I'm new to all this and being a female I'm just confused with what I need to do!
I have an XDA IIi that I got from O2 in the uk a year ago and now I live in NZ and need to have it unlocked so that I can use an NZ sim card in it. O2 uk want to charge me for it so can I get it unlocked for free? :roll:
I so how, (and in plain english too as I'm not very good at all this technical stuff!)
Thanks for all you help
Cheryl :wink:
Use the search link at the top of the page. It's been mentioned many many times before.
Or if you prefer the old manual way look in the Alpine section.

A simple answer ....

Guys / Gals,
I have been trying to find in this forum a straight forward yes no type answer to the following question ( but have been unable too ) :
My wife has just bought a T-Mobile(UK) MDA Compact III (ARTE110), there seems to be some confusion (maybe it's just me ) as to wether it is possible to enable wi-fi on this device. Is this possible ?
And before someone try's to Flame me as a none searching n00b I have searched and the results are somewhat confusing.
Cheers
Dave
I don't see how it can be that confussing, everytime anyone asks they either get told to search, or they get told NO, THE UK T-MOBILE MDA COMPACT III HAS NO WI-FI HARDWARE IN IT.
The uk O2 XDA Orbit has, as does the HTC P3300, and funnily enough the Dutch T-mobile MDA Compact III.

OK maybe I should have said "Mixed" instead of confusing.
The o2 Orbit is a different spec than the MDA Compact III, it has less memory !
Anyway without wishing to get into symantics, thankyou for your answer.

Advice : Upgrading to WM6 for MDA Vario II on T-Mobile UK

Hello,
I have an MDA Vario II on T-Mobile UK which I bought less than one month ago. I can see that HTC have released an official WM6 upgrade for the phone but I cannot find an official upgrade on T-Mobiles UK site.
Can I use the official HTC WM6 ROM Update Utility and get my phone to WM6? If so when I boot my phone up into WM6 for the first time what must I do to get my GPRS settings etc. back on? Just use the online T-Mobile service which send s them?
I know it sounds like a n00bish question, but I've just got this phone and don't fancy bricking it just yet!
Any links to additional downloads, resources etc. would be well received.
Thanks everyone
Anyone able offer advice? I've done a lot of reading about this on the XDA-Developers site but I'm still in the dark about whether or not something might refuse to work after flashing or how to best avoid the dreaded bricking.
Thanks again
