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

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.

good morning everyone
my uncle gave me a Motorola defy (sfr) but I've got a chip bouygues telecom
iam still a small so I open Card visa For unlocked my defy my father does not want to give me money for unloked my defy
is there a way to do that free of charge?!or do any of you help me
iwant to enjoy this phone like you
I presume you are not in France therefore your bouygues telecom sim doesn't work? Or maybe you want a pay-as-you-go sim. The only way I know to get a free sim unlock code is from a carrier and I have no idea if bouygues telecom will give you one. Of course it would mean signing up for their service.
bouygues is for my mother but always put in the house
and I are sure that there is geniuses in this site can unlocking my defy
ihope only to help me
Each phone has a unique unlock code and there are several places that offer the service, but they cost money. Maybe you can get some ideas here.

Can't you get some sort of prepaid debit card?
unfortunately I can not
I live in the netherlands. There are no dutch Telco's offering esim for use in my Galaxy Watch.
However, I heard that in Germany there are telco's offering esim (tmobile for one).
Are there any people here that can advise me on whether (and if so how) to obtain a german esim for use with my RM-805U ?
greetings Henro
I never heard any success since Gear S2... S3...
To use device outside """Region Lock"""...
eSIM seems nothing Oh yeah, we can it use everywhere in the world...
Not in Samsung world.
You have US device... preconfgured for USA:
Code:
ATT
T-Mobile
Verizon
Sprint...
So IMHO NOT eSIM stuff from Netherlands nor Germany nor any other country outside USA...
Maybe it has something todo with IMEI and other Security crap...
I can not find much about eSIM Hacking...
On Google maybe few Chinese users found way for iPhone... to use in China...
Only as info.
Best Regards

and what about french friendly firmware flashing ?
Does the phone access cell networks without issues, above all the 5G (even if don't care so much about 5G) ?

I can't answer you yet, I only had Xiaomi and this is my first Samsung.
No 5g antenna or so I'm not on a 5g plan.
Currently I am looking for a solution for the call recorder
Edit;
I tried with a Visa Premier, the same.
