HTC Universal unlock program

Taken from http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33842&start=25 so that maybe more people will view it...

Anyone up for purchasing it? I'd do it, but I'm unable to, as I live in the USA. I'll even reimburse someone if they purchase it and provide me with proof that they did.
Who knows? This might actually work. Or does anyone have any feedback regarding it?
I would try it, but I am not in UK
I am very confident that this is just the unlock all tool stolen from here. Or even worse, it could be NOTHING since O2 don't lock their devices and it only mentions O2 stuff...
Gut feeling: It's a con.
That's very much possible.. but at the same time, there is a slight chance that the program is legit. The seller has another auction up for the software, if anyone is willing to try it. If you do try it, let us know if it works!

Read the guy's feedback. He's already sold this software and it doesn't work. His response to the feedback was pretty feeble. AVOID!
unlock
hi to all, I have bought the software from this guy ,but it doesn’t work ,he must of got it from here , first he send me the unlocking v1.6 witch I believe is for mda compact (magician & others), then after I emailed him that is useless he send me back 2 different unlocking version again is version 1.3 and version 2.2 witch again I believe is from this website, he told me if it doesn’t work he refund me after I live him positive feedback!!.
note; I have tried this unlocking in my spv m5000 from orange and no luck, I think is just trying to make few quid from eBay and see if any of this unlocking tools work for anyone!!

I'm so confused...

Hi,
I wondered if anyone could clear up my problem...
I have read a lot of threads on different forums about WM6. There's very little information about WM6 upgrades with the PDA I have - the O2 XDA Mini S.
I'm looking to upgrade to WM6, and cannot find any way to do so. I've found T-Mobile offering an upgrade service to their customers, but not O2.
I'm not after any kind of cracked, illegal copy, I just want to know if O2 offer the same service?
Is it that it hasn't been released for this PDA model? Or the service is just not available?
I just want a way to get it! lol
Please help me out!
Thanks

There is no official WM6 out there for your device (HTC Wizard) not from T-Mo, nor from O2, nor from any other operator; so if you don't want to experiment with cooked/leaked roms, you are unfortunatelly out of luck.

WiFi On the MDA is it possible??

Hi everone i need some help,
I know that if you buy a MDA Compact III in the UK it doesnt have WiFi. is there a way around this?? or not
Other option would be to flash it with the HTC Windows Mobile 6 ROM and then find the T-Mobile setting myself. Has anyone does this?? does it even work?
Thanks

Unfortunately you can't enable hardware that isn't present in the device. So, attempting to flash different ROMs won't work.
are you sure? the gy in the t-mobile shop told me the hardware was there but it was disabled, he didnt know why and told me it would void my warrenty if i tried to fixed it haha
Well, cell phone shop employees are notoriously un-knowledgable about what they're selling.
There really is no wifi hardware in the UK version. It's been covered extensively already here.
Ok thanks for your help
is there any way round it ? see that a micro sd card with wifi is on the way

HTC Sirius or Sedna Unlocking

Hello guys i just purchased from ebay a p6500 from orange UK. Does anybody know if it is locked in orange network and if so how will i unlock it? (i havent received it yet propably tommorow) also why there is not any p6500 section in our forum since the device is already out in the market? sorry for my bad english.
Anybody???? Help!!!
Nobody knows something?
Dont know whether yours will be locked or not but probably is.
As for the seperate discussion forum there have been a number of requests but I guess as this is targetted more at vertical markets than consumers the guys aren't too bothered.
I agree with you my friend but i think xda developers site since the begining is supporting all htc devices in the market and its quite strange why the p6500 hasnt a thread in this site. I bought this phone even thought i have a touch cruise and i want it for every day usage and not for my work. I hope a thread will be made soon and i will be very happy to help by dumping my rom to the missing polaris and kaiser drivers project.
Well sim unlock maby imposiblle.........cid unlock anybody know how to get rid of the orange brand and put the original htc rom? Im willing to donate to anybody that helps me!!!€
I've also got a sim-locked orange UK P6500 that I would like to use on other networks. Help would be greatly appreciated.

[Q] Unlocking MDA Compact V (T-mobile UK)

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
