Hi,
I have an O2 xda orbit and I want to use it with my 3 sim card but it keeps saying sim card missing. Does anyone know where I can download the software to unlock this?

SHORT SHARP ANSWER: You Can't!
The XDA Orbit is not a 3G phone. Unless ofcourse you have the XDA Orbit 2, which is. Then you need to do a 'search' on the Forum and you will find the answer.
fair enough, all i needed to know.
Cheers.

Is there any news on unlocking the xda IIs? I would like to buy it but need to be able to use other sims in it, thanks
I bought the MDAIII and t-mobile unlocked it for £15
Has anyone done this with the o2 xdaIIs? somehow i dont think o2 will be as cooperative as t-mobile. I was wondering if there was a free tool that can unlock it
no tool yet.

Hi Guys,
I just bought an XDA executive on ebay from the UK.
The seller said it was unblocked and hould work with any sim, but after recieving the unit and turning the unit on i cant get past the o2 screen and none of the buttons on the phone respond to once clicked upon.
Please advise?
Thanks!
Hi,
I think that you have to upgrade your EXEC with O2 shiped Rom that you can find it on the ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com login using xda user and pass xda and under folder Universal, i am sure that you won't have problems olso sure that the phone is unlocked couse o2 is giving it sim lock free phones
Kind regards

Then, For how to install it, there are many threads on this. I don't remember which one I used but I did and it worked fine.
Good luck,

I just bought a mda vario off a friend. Trying to unlock it so I can switch it from T-Mobile to Cingular. I have tried a few things in some of the posts and they worked but it still asks for me to enter a code after putting card in starting it up. Can someone help me?
This sounds like a Sim card lock.
The Sim card Lock is a lock to stop people taking your device, turning it on and using your sim or taking the sim out of your device and putting it in thier device to call so that you pay for it.
Its a software setting.

HI, i have the same problem like you!
can anyone help me please to lose it!!!!
SIM unlocking MDA Vario
You can use either aWizard or Lokiwiz to unlock the phone (CID unlock). worked well for me (and many others) but don't have the progrmme anymore- got it off of XDAdevelopers.
Hi firstly id like to appolagise for my lack of knowledge im pritty new here.
basically my question is this, i have an xda exec which i would like to be able to use my vodaphone sim in from time to time to access the streaming tv from the vodaphone live site (as the screen is much smaller on my vodapnone phone) but i still want to use it with my o2 sim the rest of the time.
Any advise would be much apreciated but please bear in mind i am new so try not to blow my mind up
Thanks in advance.
GO for it!
As long as your vodafone sim is a USIM you'll have no issues! My Vodafone sim works fine in the XDA EXEC I recently purchased, as does my o2 PAYG sim!
Ra bless o2 for not Simlocking!
A problem has occrued, the sim works fine for calls but wont seem to connect to the net for me to access vodaphone live etc - im currently using the settings from this site - http://www.vodafone.co.nz/vlive/vlive_specifications.jsp however im not quiet sure that im not missing anything, any info or advise would be greatly apreciated and the cab file that sets up the vodaphone settings for the universal would be even better if anyone has it .....
whenever i get a message from t-mobile it says its sent from one of my facebook contacts. not even someone i have in my phone contacts, just someone i have on facebook.
any ideas how to rectify this?
I get this on Orange too lol

Google is your friend! Search for T-mobile SIM PIN.... if you had done you would have found this in the first post.. probably quicker than posting here & waiting for my reply too
The PIN code for your T-Mobile SIM card is printed on the delivery slip that comes with the SIM card.
If in doubt, try T-Mobile's default PIN code for SIM cards, which is 1210.
Note that you get three tries to enter the PIN, and your phone will be locked if you fail after these tries. You'll then need to contact T-Mobile to get a PUK code.
1210 or 1212 i think ... dunno should be on the SIM pack on the letter.
