for unlock the MDA pro

I mailed to T-mobile for unlock my MDA PRO the mailed me a link to visit:
http://www.t-mobile.de/simlock/1,9645,13846-_,00.html
What do you think? :?:

Any chance of you translating it to english?

Nothing to see here
It says essentially: Insert a foreign SIM-card, enter the 8-digit unlock code (which you have to buy from us), soft-reset, and you're ready. However, you get the lock only after 24 months if you got the phone together with a T-Mobile contract.

I phoned T-Mobile today (In the UK) and was told that once I've had the phone 1 month, if I call them, for a small fee (£15) they will issue me the unlock code!

same for me as well. T-Mobile uk will unlock the phone after one month. Although funnily enough they unlocked my MDA III straight away.

I did ask why u had to wait a month, and they said it was just company policy :roll:

i received the code but its a 10 digit code can any one help t-mobile sent me to contract htc and htc said go to t-mobile

unlock?
Anyone found a way to unlock the mda pro already? all i hear is that people are working on it LOL
imei-check.com is also working on it.. but 2 weeks later still no sound.

MDA Pro unlocking
Hi everybody! I received my MDA Pro from Germany today, and it's sim-locked to th German T-mobile. I thought it would work with my local T-mob card, but it doesn't! :evil:
So I need to unlock it somehow. T-mob Ger does it for 100 EUR, which is a bit hefty, but seemded like the only choice so far. I asked the guy I bough the device from to send me the purchase receipt.
Since I'll probably soon void my warranty anyway (i.e. do the rom upgrade), I would prefer any less expensive method. Also, I don't really speak German, so getting the unlcok code from the German T-mob by phone would be a challenge anyway.
Now I read here that T-mob UK is more friendly i terms of unlocking. Do you think they would do my device, or they only do local machines? Do they check the IMEI?
Any help would be appreciated on this. Thanks!

ewhh
i did try the UK tmobile office. But you HAVE to have a tmobile contract in the UK.
So i found a mate in london who had that, he called and tmobile uk said it would take 28 days, also i am sure after they take off the 15 pounds it costs they will say sorry the imei is not from a phone you bought yourself with your tmobile contract.
Holland wont do it because they check imei too.. if it is not a dutch imei code they wont do it.
I am waiting desperately for a solution and would even pay 50 pounds if someone would unlock my tmobile mda pro.
I just hope imei-check comes with a solution before xmass LOL

T-Mobile Germany does it FOR FREE if you have bought it WITHOUT CONTRACT !

The thing is, I didn't buy it in a shop, but from a guy in Germany. When he sends me the receipt (as he had promised to), I will find out how it was purchased. Chances are, of course, that it was a prolongation of a contract or something like that... :roll:
If not, I will certainly try to manage the unlocking with T-mob Ger, but without speaking German, this might be difficult.
@dvl:
Thanks for the info, looks like Britain is a dead end too. Rats. Now my only hope is imei-check. I unlocked an MDA III for a guy there once. It was quite simple and quick even with all the id verification business. I guess I wouldn't have to go through with that again. :lol:
Everyone pls keep us posted on possible unlocking methods!

I don't speak german either -... you have to try until you get an english speaker operator (I got it on second attempt). I hope that yours was bought without a contract.
Good luck.

imei-check does it
Update: I saw today that imei-check now offers unlocking for the Universal. However, it's only available as a mail-in sevice, and it's bloody expensive: 50 GBP in the UK, a lot more anywhere else (due to shipping). All this, plus you have to get it to them too... :roll:
This is not really any help for ppl outside the UK, and I read here that you can get an unlocking code there for 15 GBP from the provider, so this is not such great news.
Still, I wanted to let you know. :idea:
I will stick to the 99 EUR official unlocking from T-mob, especially since the guy who sold me the device offered to pay half of it and to get the code from T-mob. Yay!

How to get the unlock code from T-mobile Germany
Any BUSINESS Customer with a GSM Contract of T-Mobile Germany gets the unlock code for any MDA PRO within a couple of hour via e-mail for free.
If you can find a helpful guy who is (in this forum?!?!), he may help you out by asking T-Mobile Germany for the unlock code with your IMEI number.
Good luck

I don't know any business customers at the German T-mob, so I got my code - yesterday - through the guy who originally bought the device (with a contract). He also paid half the unlocking cost!

Hi,
just a questions....after the unlocking via the unlock code from the provider, if the phone will be upgraded or unbranded (for example I would like to leave out the T-Mobile customization and change the phone software with the usual I-Mate JASJAR) maybe can it have some problems with the unlocking code?
I hope that it will not be modified
Thanks for any replies.

I have a Qtek 9000 locked to Vodafone UK and I would appreciate all help I can get to unlock it.. Here is some data of my phone.
ROM version: 1.13.62 WWE
ROM date: 09/29/05
Radio version: 1.04.10
Protocol version: 43.37P8
ExtROM version: 1.13.189 WWE

If it is locked to Vodafone, then it should be the V1640 not a Qtek 9000.
Have you tried asking VodafoneUK for the Network Unlock Code (NUC) ?

It is a Qteq 9000 I have all papaers and the original box. And I have tried to get an unlock code but all they say when I sent my IMEI number was that I have to wait for 12 Months to get the unlock code.
Since I bought the phone on Ebay I have problems to get any help. Even though the advertisement said it was Unlocked and when I got it I tried with my phonecard that is Telenor (Norway) then it just want me to type in the simlock code.

I never thought VOdafone would be selling QTEK 9000's
At any rate you have to wait 12 months starting from when? As you bought the phone from Ebay and not directly from Vodafone, how does vodafone know when the 12 month ends?
Also, i heard that it is 12 months if you wanna get the code for free. Can you pay a certain amount to get it now?

I have to apologize to you.. I just got the box and it says vodafone 1640 :shock: Have I been swindled since the add said it was a Qtek 9000 and it looks the same?

Yes, you probably have been "swindled". The QTEK 9000 is never locked as it didn't come from a phone operator. So is the Imate Jasjar never locked.
You essentially go a Universal thru Vodafone which is definitely locked by Vodafone.
I believe the V1640 is supposed to be silver, right? The QTEK is all black like the O2 except the keyboard light is red as in the O2 it is blue. The jasjar is 2 tone, black and grey

Yes it is silvere colored, but is it possible to unlock it with some software?
When I put in the Vodafone card that came with the phone all windows program and my navigator works fine, but I want to use my own phone card.

if you put NO sim card, it will work except the phone part.
Now aside from paying for the NUC by asking it from Vodafone, or waitig the 12 months, there are some people you are offering these services BUT, yes, BUT you have to physically send them the phone.
There are people here who are working on a unlock tool for the universal but that may be ready in about 3 months or could take until end of the year.

So you say that if I take contact with Vodafone UK and give them some money, they will send me a code to unlock my phone?
I have been in contact with Vodafone Sweden and they told me that I had to wait for 12 Months, I gave them my IMEI number and the only answer I got was that in 12 Months they could me with a code.

Let me explain a little.
I bought my QTEK 9000 for €900 because it is not locked.
Now VODAFONE locks their device and sells it a lot cheaper (less than 600€) because you can only use the phone on their network so your phone use subsidizes the cost of the phone.
After 1 year, you can ask for the unlock code FREE OF CHARGE.
Now to get the unlock code before the 12 months, you have to PAY because vofafone will not be able to subsidize the discounted price.
Normally just ask them how much to get the unlock code now. I believe it can run from somewhere between 40€ to sometimes even more than 100€ but i am sure you will still be ahead of what i paid for, right?

Well I just paid 365 GBP for my phone.. So it's not that bad if I have to pay some fee to Vodafone. I will take contact with them in the morning.

[Q] Please Help. I bought Fire Phone from T-Mobile Germany

Last week I travelled to Frankfurt Germany and I bought unlocked Amazon Fire Phone 32 GB 449euro from T-Mobile shop Zeil road Frankfurt.
But I had to travelled to the Netherlands . I went there without testing.
And now I come back to Thailand and open the phone.
It shows Pin required for unlocking SIM.
But I do not have Pin.
What should I do ?
Please help me.

You can go to Telekom Website and unlock your phone for 99€ - this is why firephones have Bad reviews in germany.

I don't think you can use the site to unlock the phone if you don't live in Germany.
You have to pay per "Nachnahme" with the Deutsche Post (Pay at the door, if you get the code delivered). This will not work if you are not in Germany.

Although there is "Nachnahme International", i don't think Thailand will be on the list of countries for that.
