Hi all im new to the xperia arc but been on this site a loooong time ago with my touch hd
I have a couple of questions about the arc , im getting a locked (i think) from o2 would most market stalls and shops that do unlocking be able to do this ? the reason im wondering is i remember when i had a nokia n95 and wasnt able to unlock it so i dont really want to be in that situation again.
2. what do you think of the screen comparing to the galaxy s 2 ? iv seen a few reviews and most are quite favourable but im interested in real user feedback
thanks !!
TBH, you're better off requesting the unlock code from your provider. I had my x10 on contract from three, decided to change to payg but a local shop advised £37 to unlock, whereas with three it cost £15...
Sent from my LT15i using XDA App
yeah i thought about asking o2 but as it is a new contract i thought you have to wait maybe 6-12 months before they would allow it , il give it a go anyway
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
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.
I am considering purchasing a unlocked desire from expansy uk as im sick of waiting for htc to release android 2.1 for the hero
one question I have is on other htc devices (wm) they have a settings wizard where internet / mms settings are configures when you put in your sim.
Im on 3 uk and whilst they have released the mobile I would prefer an unlocked version ... does android configure settings automatically ???
i had a play around with a desire the other day it is superb and really really quick ,.. im gonna sell my hero and also my touch diamond 2 .... to get one of these superb phones just a bit concerned with internet settings / mms settings configuration
thanks in advance

It's nearly £57 cheaper to buy the handset from a 3 store than from expansy uk!
I thought Desire is only available on contract on 3, can't see handset for £57 less than expansys on 3 website...

They only sell them PAYG in store, depending how much stock they have in. I paid £350 for mine, as have a few others on the forums.
yep can confirm £349.99 ive got mine from stockport 3 .. they are unlocked and are superb !!!! well done 3 for beating everyone else
Agreed with the above about 3 store, got mine from Middlesbrough, unlocked & unbranded.
Go for it, you won't regret it !!

Hi!
It seems like it was an O2 Orbit with a contract and O2 barred it on its network because of fraud or not payed bills.
Hi there, I have had my touch pro 2 for around 2 years now and have always loved the phone and bought it on contract from vodafone in the UK and live in England - Leeds and was just wondering if I could unlock this phone either for free or by paying? I dont mind paying if thats what I need to do but free would be nice also.
If I can do it for free can you possibly tell me how?
And if not, then can you give me a legitimate website where I can purchase an unlock code from for a cheap price?
Thanks in advance.
you can just search this site for " hard-spl" for RHODIUM or TOUCH PRO 2..
Also do a search for "task 29"
are you talking about sim unlocking and witch version phone do you have
You should also check Oli's thread you may be able to find what u need there
i also have a vodafone uk tp2 and to my pleasant surprise found it to be already unlocked when i tried an o2 sim.have you tried another sim card.
