I have Two XDA Exec. for Sale.
Both Brand New Unlocked (Working in UK.. No Scams or Claims) SIM Free
I'm looking around £600 - £550 For them. Boxed, Manuels Chargers etc.. Brand New.
I bought them just for the Contract and will be using the Contract for Business, but the Handset is just too Complex for a Young Professional. Looking for Quick Sale so that i can afford a New Pay as You Go.
Thanks

Hey it's you again! For a moment when I read this post, I got a funny sense of deja-vu! :lol:
Let's see if we can stop things a little sooner in this thread. It is possible to buy an O2 Exec completely for around £350, paying off the 12 months contract etc. It is also possible to buy a Qtek from Expansys for about £600 and an iMate JasJar for around £30 more. Needless to say, this latter option comes with a solid warranty from a reputable trader.
Honestly, go flog'em on eBay or return them to O2 and get handsets you want to use... Like you were told in the other thread, this forum is not a marketplace - it's about helping each other. That includes warning the unsuspecting about high prices.
Have a nice day now!
Suggest a Price that i should be selling it for them.. Cuz my Contract is around 450. Anyway and the thing is i need money to pay off my contract and buy a new pay as you go. so.. that is why i want 550 to 600 for it..
Still Cheaper then 650GBP from retailers!
Tell you what, i'm due for a renewal in a few weeks, I'll offer you 100 quid seeing as how you can get them from O2 on a new contract for 140.
Actually
I got mine for 19 quid .. with a 54/mo contract (I needed the 36mb traffic package)
hello all recently i got an xda 2s from o2 on contract i had to pay £270 for handset , but object as its my 4th year of £45 a month tarrif and old handset went faulty, anyways i havent paid for the phone and o2 have turned it off is there any way i can still use the phone possibly on o2 pay and go ? any help mutch appriciated many thanks alan , liverpool uk.
Hi!
last summer I bought new XDA 3 and 1 month later it fall down and the screen is crashed.
Is there any place, where I can get a spare screen cheap?
Or is anybody there, who has a broken Blueangel, which as an intact screen, which I can buy?
there are a few places on the net, search google or do a search on these blueangel forums, there are a few threads on this subject, BUT BE REALLY CAREFULL, YOU NEED THE RIGHT SCREEN FOR YOUR MOTHERBOARD.
BUY THE WRONG ONE AND YOU HAVE AN EXPENSIVE SCREEN THAT DOES NOT WORK...... BE CAREFUL.
my mate had his insured, after he cracked his screen, they didnt even ask to view the handset first, just asked what make/model and IMEI number. he waited 2 months and claimed, he got a new handset, lost all data, he saved most of it anyway, it was still functional apart from the touch screen, its amazing what actually does work without the screen tho.

Thx for all the help!
I think, I will go to the official service company and have it repaired there. BUt there it costs about 300 Euro
When I smashed mine in, I sent it to SBE Ltd in Kent.
They were very good. I sent it in to them in August of 2005, but then I went and lost my job and could't pay for it to be fixed. (I was told it would cost £100). I paid last week, and it cost £40 in the end. They even shipped it out to me to a new address, and between payment and me recieving it, took 3 days.

Wow. I've only had bad dealings with SBE but that is really cheap considering HTCeurope want £112 for a screen and digitiser!
What flavour blueangel was it? SBE are only agents for Imate IIRC and won't touch other stuff from experience, just as HTCe won't repair Imate or o2 devices :-(

Anyone know what the instore price is for a "25 pm tarrif?
I called O2 today and to upgrade my exec on a £25 tarrif they wanted £259 pounds. Nearly fell off my chair laughing, PAC code on its way to me hello vodaphone
i just upgraded to 02 orbit for free!
I just upgraded to o2 200 £30.00 / month ( same as I've been on for ages ) - phone cost £99.99.
I think if i'd gone for £35.00 / month the cost drops to £49.99
Best deal on t-mobile (who needs wifi)
I went for an MDA Compact III (I dont use wi-fi).... I got it on 18month contract UFIX for £15 a month (this is the UFIX) then £7 a month bolt on for web and walk (unlimited connection).... The t-mobile web site is in fact more expensive than the shops... I went into my local t-mobile shop and picked up two with my girlfriend... the guy said they usually would be £40 for the phone but we could have them for £20 each... so a 18 month contract for 22.00 a month and £20 for the phone which we both thought was an excellent deal!... the boxes were unsealed (but) the phones were intact and not touched just shown to customers... there is quite a few t-mobile shops with ones opened and you can get a good deal on these handsets, I did go to another t-mobile shop before hand but the Artemis looked like it had been dropped so I didnt touch it !....
free of charge at o2 shop - i am on £30 per month tariff but had my qtek s100 since june last year.
i got mine 49.48 on T-Mobile Flext web 'n' walk 22.50 a month for the full 18 month contract. was on T-Mobile website for 79.99!! So better deal on the High Street.
Thank you, so basically they were trying to rip me off :-(
Shame the t-mobile version doesn't have wifi as I do use it quite a bit with my xda exec
Will try a local store next and see if they give me a more realistic offer, I think my problem was I don't normally go over my minutes so O2 are probably not that bothered if I move.
Ta
just to say it seems some shops have been getting the price confused on this handset, when I phoned the store (to see if they had any cheap microsd cards) the day after....they said they gave me the phone free by accident as the pricing hadn't been sorted with them by o2. Reckon they had to pay upgrade charges for me thanks o2
I phoned up for a PAC code and they upgraded mine for free £35 tariff.
I tried O2 earlier today, the local shop didn't have any Orbit's in stock, they wouldn't offer any decent sim only tariffs to use GPRS so I decided to move elsewhere (T-Mobile Web and Walk).
O2 wouldn't issue a code over the phone to move networks - I have to wait for a text message, T-Mobile account and device is set-up, just waiting to port the number across.
I can live without the WiFi to be honest, if I need it I will use one of my other toys, both my main phones (Artemis and MDA-III) still feel lighter in the pocket than carrying around either the Exec or IIs both of which are bricks using extended batteries.
Ten years plus with O2 - goodbye, you really need to address the mobile internet costs, your tariff is beyond a joke - Mike
O2 are not selling the Orbit sim free as it is there "baby" and will only be released with a contract for now.
on my £20 contract o2 UK told me that i did not spend enough to justify a cheaper upgrade - the £200 was too much for me, considering they would have given me £100 to stay with my old imate jam (so £300 upgrade then).
so i cancelled, in writing. would have gone with o2 online.
i just received a text giving me a finishing date when someone from o2 called asking why i was quitting. he offered me a great deal:
100mins 400text £15/month and £100 for the orbit.
chuffed!
moral: i don't think o2 are so prepared to offer better deals if you just threaten to quit with them - but maybe if you get more serious....
Well I left O2, and when contacted the chap was most reasonable when I explained the reason for leaving was due to the high cost of the GPRS usage. He inquired which provider I was switching to - when I mentioned the Web n Walk contract he said little more, my mind was made up prior to the call.
No offer they could make would come close, there again it all depends how you use the device, at between 15 to 25MB per day when mobile I had to address the cost of GPRS - Mike
Can anyone tell me if the T-Mobile version of the O2 Orbit has Wi-FI I seen from an earlier post that this may not be the case. But I am not sure this is correct? thanks Jd76.

Hi jd76 - it has not i am afraid - why they have done that seems madness but there you go
The T-Mobile MDA Compact-III as it is known does NOT have WiFi when supplied in the UK, certain other European versions of the T-Mobile MDA-C-III do have WiFi, so I guess its rip of Britain time again! that said the device is very good and combined with the GPRS Web & Walk you have internet where ever and when ever you like (its just a bit slow) - Mike
Thanks Meschle & Mikealder but I would prefer Wi-Fi built in so looks like O2 when time for upgrading...thanks..
us orbit?
when will artemis or orbit be available in the us?
O2 Best Deals
I went into the Watford store in the UK and said that I had my pac code with me from Vodafone and immediately got a free XDA Orbit (which comes unlocked) on a 12 mnth tariff for £35 a month (400 mins, 100 txt), and after 6 months I can lower my tariff. Just waiting for a 2gb micro sd now. £39.99 from play.com
Hi,
It may worth noting that other than for one month in last years contracr o2 never logged my GPRS usage.
I had a 6mb usage limit and according to their site I never used any of the allowance! Though in the one month they did log it they stung me for an extra £20.
As I never used my Wifi on my JAMin it was a no-brainer switching to T-Mobile and I got the same deal as one of the other posters @ £49 for phone Flext20 (£22.50 per month with WnW).
I was paying £24 with o2.
Regards
Hi Guys
I'm looking to buy one to use with my Three contract SIM, but really hate waiting for deliveries. I can pick up a PAYG handset from O2.. but does anybody know if these handsets would be network-locked? Or could I use my Three SIM with it?
Thanks
its unlocked, can be used on any network. i got mine from o2 and use it on three.
Unlocked mate. I purchased mine from O2 but I use a three SIM
Mine works on Vodafone too
Unlocked (I'm using my 3 SIM) like everyone else said BUT if you buy from an O2 brick and mortar store they'll make you buy a £15 SIM card. They did with me anyway.
Don't bother asking the staff in-store because they either flat-out lie and say it's locked or they just don't know.
Also bought mine from O2; have both the O2 and my usual Virgin SIM in the phone. Both work fine.
Only odd thing is that I asked for the 10£ SIM, but the computer at the store wouldn't accept it, so I had to accept a 15£ SIM. One-time purchase, and I got the device instantly though, so I took it. I don't think the OP5T is sold locked anywhere (don't quote me on this though).
Perfect, thanks everybody.. I did as you said and brought it direct from O2 and also had to get the £15 PAYG SIM.. but its only about £6 extra compared to buying direct (with their faster delivery).. and I got it the same day. Really impressed so far.

if u got it on o2 online you wouldn't have needed to pay a top up at all.

I thought that. You just have to select a pay as you go sim but it doesn't cost anything
If you have an O2 SIM or you can borrow one, you don't need to pay for the £15 top up in store either. Just take the SIM in with you (in a working phone) and they'll sell you the 5t as an upgrade. During the process they send two SMS messages to the existing O2 SIM a each of which contains a four digit number. You read those back to them and hey presto you get the new phone without buying the £15 top up. I've bought two this way now, both using the same number.

Very true, I was just trying to help the OP as they said they didn't like waiting around for deliveries This was the first phone I didn't order online for years! It was weird! Kinda cool too. I wish phone stores in the UK sold a wider range of Chinese phones at reasonable prices. I guess the phone networks wouldn't like that!
