[q] telus desire - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone bought it yet? Rooted? Roms work?

I've been playing with mine for a couple of hours. Still contemplating rooting it. I'm trying to figure out if Unrevoked will work with HBOOT 83.
PS: Nice piece of hardware!!

The device is amazing. Now does anyone have any ways to unlock the device? I'm planning to use it on rogers and so far im just playing around with the device.
Update: found this site cellunlock.net
Seems legit and u get 50% your order if u use the code crackb50
The only issue now is that it takes 3 business hours and so i'm going have to wait until monday.
If there are any other options let me know guys.

Seems that Cellunlock.net is the only site not refunding people's money right away. They should have codes shortly.

Bought a code from them yesterday evening (friday) for my Wildfire (Buzz) and got a working unlock code within 2 hours. And yes, i got the 50% rebate using the mentioned ref code wich made a total of $10.00 . So i can only say i'm pleased since i have to pay $45 in the closest mobile shop that can unlock it for me.

EBay is Cheaper
This seems to be a promotional thread that is a lie. I don't see any thanks from people who got free codes. I didn't get any answer to my PM even though it was on the 1st of the month. I'm pissed off.
BUY YOUR CODE FROM A TRUSTED EBAY SELLER AND NOT THIS GUY! IT'S CHEAPER.
This guy wants 30 euros to unlock your Defy. On ebay, prices go from 5 to 20 euros depending on who the phone is locked too.. Just be sure to check their feedback and refund conditions before bidding.
Yeah I never got any reply from him either. However.....in a list of unlockers on Cellphoneforums.net one unlocker upn.com was offering the same deal! And so I got my Defy+ unlocked for free. Great because it was an Aussie one and some US unlockers couldn't do it. It looks like he's not offering the deal atm so don't know if it's a regular thing or not...but it's worth hunting - it did take me about a week to find it though....

Nice. Did you create that account just to spam this thread!
There are no free unlock codes on that forum. Only your friend doing it for 25 euros. EBAY IS STILL CHEAPER... and you have some degree of buyer protection if you use paypal.
No my friend I kid you not - I did get a free unlock. My video is @ youtu.be/BPYtcrw6Nh0 (sorry can't post the link). At first I thought it was a scam and there was no way they would refund my unlock fee, but they did I'm guessing they only do it now and then and I just got lucky.

Lucky you.
I used a guy on ebay called sonicpromo(He's got a web site too but it's cheaper on ebay.) Got a 16 digit code that worked for 14 UKP. Took 2 days to get the code. My phone was locked to Vodafone ES.
Vodafone ES wouldn't unlock it because that's the way Vodafone ES is. Of course they couldn't just tell me strait up they won't unlock it. No, they made me wait a month first, and after hassling them a bit, they finally tolled me they wouldn't do it. Not couldn't, but wouldn't.

Galaxy Nexus locked?

many are selling their Galaxy Nexus saying waiting for lock code to unlock etc.. and others are saying its sim-free and unlocked
so who to believe? is it locked for those to took it on contract (o2 , orange , others) or its unlocked just tied up with the contract and can sell it easily to make quick cash?
thanks
Well Im in the UK and got the phone from Phones4u - tied to an Orange tarriff..... but I now have my T-Mobile SIM in it as ive got 6 weeks left before I can actually move my number to Orange.
Works fine
Some are locked. Some aren't.
It seems all O2 phones are locked. Some Three phones but not all of them and that the new contract phones4u are unlocked.
Either way I unlocked my O2 phone for £7 using eBay and it only took a few hours to get the code so it isn't tricky to unlock which is great for those in the US wanting to buy a phone as it would surely be cheaper to buy a locked phone and pay $15 on eBay for an unlock code.
So if have some friends in the UK who can get it for free due an upgrade or using the plan for their own i can make them happy paying them £400 cash per device and they use the service anyway and benefit some cash?
So who wanna be my friend for few devices?
wow no one? hehe i thought i'll be getting tons of PMs regarding the topic
seems i have no option but getting it over ebay overpriced :/

Probably because they wouldn't profit from it at all. If they buy them on contract they still end up paying at least the full price of the phone but as part of an increased monthly cost. When you then offer them £400 they probably end up about £100 out of pocket. Hardly a great deal for them.

[Q] is the o2 Nexus unlocked?

Hi guys
With the handtec fiasco, I have cancelled and am getting it from o2.
A quick question, is the o2 version unlocked?
Cheers guys
O2 is locked, but you can get an unlock code from them for free on contract, or a small fee if not. People have reported using ebay unlocking for £5 too.
if you bought it PAYG, then it will likely be SIM locked - mine is, and many others who have bought an O2 PAYG handset are SIM locked.
Usually O2 contract phones are SIM unlocked, at least that has been my experience in the past.
thanks guys, i'll get the unlock off ebay
Just so you are warned - O2 won't unlock your phone it you buy if on pay as you go for 12 months after purchase(even though they still charge you 15 pounds for the service). It is a complete mystery for me. You pay a full price for the phone and you still have to wait 12 months? This is just stupid.
If you buy it on contract though, they will unlock it for free at any time.

Order a 5t in Canada Toronto.

Hi. I was thinking about ordering a 5t.
Anyone in Ontario order one? Can you tell me how much you paid total for shipment and customs?
Thanks.
There isn't customs.
Use the 10% student discount. Brings it down to around $740 tax in.

Same story. But ordered two phones. They were delivered from California for less than 24 hours by DHL express.
Although I have not ordered any special shipping service.
The 128gb? How can I use the student discount?
I'm not a student
I'm very interested too, is anybody want to share their student discount ?

There is nothing to share.
Just register here
https://www.studentbeans.com/student-discount/us/oneplus
and you will get the personal discount code that will be valid for one month.
But do not use gmail when you register, try to use something else.
PS.
I also came from my good old Nexus 6 to OP5T
I still think Nexus 6 the best Google phone ever made. Had zero issues with it for 3 years.
I'm not a student so I cant buy it with the discount ( or there's another way? ) anyone o had bought it without the discount can share how much has paid?
Thanks in advance
I bought mine on the release day and received it on Black Friday (which is no special day in Canada). Paid about $740, used a referral code from a friend.
Very happy with it. It works perfectly on Public Mobile (which doesn't sell phones and expects you to have one unlocked, though Telus-locked phones will work).
IIRC there was only one shipping choice, DHL (yuk) and the phone shipped from California HST-paid so it didn't stop at customs.
