Any help anyone could provide on this would be much appreciated. I've already searched quite a bit.
I'm in Canada, I want to buy an XDA Orbit with no o2 contract, and I want some kind of warantee. Don't care where it's shipped from. Is this possible?
Thanks

You guys! You're brilliant! A year ago you helped me to unlock my MDA II Compact in a trice. It died recently so I sent it back to T-mobile UK who sent me a brand new one. Bless their hearts. But the security has changed A LOT since the last one. I tried loki 3 and 3b with no luck, so actually paid the imei people to unlock it. Cheaper than a new Charmer, right?
BUT, now I've spent money on the thing, I want it to connect to the internet in France, where I spend a lot of time. But I can't override the T-mobile settings to let SFR do their funky thing! And my French isn't that good. And let me tell you, Babel Fish isn't all it's cracked up to be!
I think the best thing I can do is wipe all trace of T-mobile. Use my virgin phone to connect to SFR, and suffer the consequences when I return to Blighty. Can you help me, with simple duffer explanations of how to do this. You see, my Charmer is pink.
Loving you to bits in advance,
PINK MDA
Hi all,
Got a TP2 from Vodafone UK this week. Realy liking the device so far, infact it's probably the first WM phone I have used in ages that I have not splattered with apps just to make it usefull!
My main gripe with Vodafone so far is that the colour scheam they have shosen for the TouchFlow is 'Vodafone Red' with black so the message count bubbles are totaly unreadable!
Anyway, one strange this with this device is that I seem to have lost the ability to use HTMP email format and also the ability to flag messages etc... I have been told that this is a Vodafone 'thing' so that you want to use their email services... So does anyone know how to turn this back on ???
Thanks

I have a few questions if you don't mind:
Is the actual phone Vodafone branded in any way, or is it just the software?
Also, did you get it from a Vodafone shop, or was it delivered to your home?
I'm interested in getting one from Voda soon, what deal did you get it on, and did you have to pay much for the handset?
Cheers - hope you're enjoying the phone ;-)

No, it's HTC branded just voda build of the firmware....for now
Got it delivered direct from Voda, Most of the high street shops will not stock them because of their value
No idea on deals because it is on my company package so it works totaly differently
Hope this helps.

Mine should have been delivered from Vodafone today, but it has been delayed until tomorrow.
I got it from the Vodafone business site and it is available for free on any tariff from £30pm (+VAT) I'm getting 500 mobile minutes, 250 texts, unlimited internet and unlimited landline calls - or I will be when it turns up!! It is shown as coming soon on the site but if you eing up they have them in stock
Someone on Beasty's "A Dream just walked in" thread got theirs yesterday and it has a Vodafone theme and a little Vodafone sign on it apparently. I will let you know what mine is like when I get it
Seems very tempting, I may leave T-mob for this!
Do you know what the Vodafone business support is like if the phone goes faulty? I know with T-mob I got next day swap-out, and wonder if Vodafone offer this too?
Also, do you know if it's supplied unlocked?

Got mine from Vodafone yesterday and it is dual-branded. HTC at top of screen and Vodafone at the bottom. I agree on the colour scheme as I changed my Pro to black, but the calendar is different on the Pro 2 and I can't seem to find a suitable alternative - any suggestions appreciated.
BTW, my initial impressions are that this phone is a BIG improvement on the Pro and well worth the upgrade.
Sorry cannot work out how to delete this..

Hi All,
I am new here so hi.
I am thinking of getting a TP2 and possibly getting the VF TP2 since they seem to have some good tariffs, better than my current fruity operator !!!
However....
I am very concerned about their version of the TP2 and the mods that they have made to it. Does anyone know what these are like the VF red/white UI.
I am seriously wondering whether it may be better to go for an unlocked version from somewhere like Clove or Expansys but I still need to buy the network access package which apparently costs the same ie around £30/month.
Thanks in advance,
Sam
Hi all,
I've spent hours trawling through this forum and the internet in general, trying to see if there's a way to (sim) unlock my MDA Compact V that's currently locked to T-Mobile UK. I've now come to the point where I'm thinking I'm going to need to extend my short arms into my deep pockets and pay for the service I'm quite happy to do this, but would someone be kind enough to recommend the best way to go about this? Google brings up so many, "Pay us xxx, give us the IMEI and we'll send you the code" - do these work? Can they be trusted?
As I say, I'm happy to pay for the service but would like to guarantee that I'll only need to pay the once...
Appreciate all who read this and anyone that can help
