Today we was informed of our prices for the XDA 11, And from this we can sell them for £475 + VAT (and carrage if needed) they will sim free ( you do not need to sign a air time contract ) But the phones are genuine o2 phones so they will be locked to o2, I have read messages from people on here getting them unlocked for £15. If this is the case i will of corse get them unlocked and sell them proper sim free for use for any sim.
Thanks John
propper sim free = NEVER EVER BEEN LOCKED SINCE RELEASED FROM FACTORY also never had a sim or contract with them
where bouts you from mate and have you got physical stock?
gaz
yes these are sim free as in no sim card is included, no need to sign a air time agreement, but they locked to o2 so they will only work the o2 sim
we are near Maidstone in Kent
we are are small independed phone shop, we have been told its a 3 day item, but i ordered one today for Saterday/Monday delevery, and as soon as it sells we will order another, we have to pay for our stock when we order and i dont like to tie up loads of money in just one product
as to the unlocking i am going to try and get mine unlocked tomorow, As i would rather sell them Proper Sim Free then i can ship them anywhere in the world and know people will be happy with them
So you want money up front?
no not at all.
i will only sell what i have in stock like any normal shop, payment could be in cash or crdit card if you collect it, or credit card if you wish to do it as mail order.
As i said earlier we are only a small shop we are not looking to hold probley more than 1 or 2 depending on how it goes in stock, BT would rather we sell them with airtime , but as we are paying for them sim free the choice is up to us what we do with them.
We are not looking to sell hundreds and hundreds of them sim free, but i have seen a few people on here asking for them without having to sign air tim contracts, .... And i use the forum for info and its just my way of hopefully helping a few people in need of one to get one , and a little ( and i mean little) bit of profit for us
John
Further to my previous post i would rather people emailed me with ther phone number and as soon as i have stock i will contact them ( in the same order as i recieve the emails asking for them) and sell that way as i fully understand that prople would not like to pay someone that kind of money up front to someone they dont know.
Thanks
John
I will be intrested but only simlock free since I live and use it in the Netherlands. Let me know if you get the simlock removed, I cannot do it from here.

O2 doesn't lock the Xda Exec.
ehh
yes O2 does lock all new versions LOL only a few early versions wern't unlocked.
:evil:
I got mine from o2 UK about 2 weeks ago and it is unlocked.
hmm
had 2 now of friends which are locked.
maybe clever to test it or ask before you get one.
:twisted:
unlock universal
imei-check.com have found a solution to our needs but it is not cheap
and it involvs sending the phone to them....
Alexis
What a laugh! They charge EUR 74,- plus shipping. I'd rather pay EUR 99,- here at the tmob shop and the Universal never leaves my hands.
i got my phone on the 1st december and its not locked.
but i got it from o2 online.
i agree
id rather pay even double this money, like ill pay 140 euro i wont have a problem if thas what it takes, but my universal wont leave my hand.
i dotn feel like sending my phone overseas to get unlocked, actually the guyz OF imei check might be afraid that the guyz of our forum here, will sniff technics out of thier unlocking tool if they offered it online, but they are just limiting themselves with this, knowing that there are other people in other very far away countries, that needs this service, i dont think a guy in the US or Australia or asia, will send his phone to the uk, may be im thining wrong
or from Poland like me
...All...
Sorry if this is in the wrong section.
I've been sent an M5000 by Orange today, but it's really not for me.
I've charged the battery, switched it on, and don't know where to start! I'm selling it as brand new because it is. It has been unlocked (using code provided by Orange), so can accept any SIM card without any issues.
I also will include a 4gb SD card which would complete the perfect package for any person who it would suit (alas, this is not me!)..
Anybody interested please PM me with offers or call +353851002101. I am located in Ireland, but will send anywhere necessary.
Kind thanks to all...
Ben.
Wow! You got your unlock code the same day as you got your phone?
How did you do this? I had to wait over a week for both of my codes =(
Hmmmmm
I asked Orange for my unlock code yesterday. They seemed only too happy to help, but told me it would take up to 3 weeks for me to receive my code, as they have to (email i think?) the manufacturer....
Forgive our scepticism, can you offer any proof that it is unlocked?
Thanks for your interest...
Attached is a screen dump showing the email that Orange sent to me. I am a business customer and have been so for a long time, and my agreement with Orange is that any handset I upgrade to is unlocked immediately, as I travel abroad regularly (mainly between the UK, Ireland and Singapore).
I bought the 4gb SD from an eBay seller in the States, and received it before I received the handset..bit of a waste really since I will not be keeping the phone! But for info, I have tested it and it is working.
If any further info is required, please just ask.
OT but important

How much do you want for it ? Do you accept Paypal? And last, do you ship to Portugal? If so for how much ?
Best offer so far is EUR 610 before postage, potential buyer just getting his funds together. But, obviously, if you can beat his offer - it's yours. Shipping to Portugal is of course no problem, and PayPal is accepted (if absolutely necessary). Would you be able to send a cheque instead? PayPal fees are quite high!

Yowser that's STEEP!......over £400! You could sign up, get the phone and pay off the minimum term of the contract for that.
I get around £275 for as-new unlocked execs on ebay but currently only have used locked m5000's.
I've seen m5000's go on ebay for as little as £210.
Richard
Well, admittedly the buyer that offered EUR610 hasn't actually paid yet! But remember, the 4GB SD card adds at least EUR100 to the price.. Plus the fact it's unlocked.
i am not a tmobile customer (rogers), and i don't have a credit card (well i do but i'm also FLAT BROKE) is there anyway i can unlock my htc dream?
+ how do you even go about unlocking the phone once you have the "code"
please answers are appreciated i am quite desperate i leave in a week (to europe) and have no money to buy a cell phone there
Unfortunately eBay is your only friend
The cheapest (and fastest) method I have seen is eBay. There are no other ways to unlock your phone. If you have a t-mobile phone on the rogers network, shouldn't your phone already be unlocked? If it is a G1 and not a Dream, that is.
Most people either unlock through the vendor in this case t mobile, or alternate sites offering unlocking services generally between 10-35 bucks. Most sites I've seen are around 25

and the second part of your question, "how do you even go about unlocking the phone once you have the "code""
you put a different carriers sim card in your phone and it will ask for the code.
just an update here i contacted rogers and they pretty much refused to give me the code, even if i paid them. found a trusted/guaranteed seller on ebay plan on trying that on thurs, will update with details
I tried to talk to Rogers about it too, right after the e911 debacle, but even in the time of need, the would not budge. The CSR tried to say that putting another SIM in my phone would work, LOL.
Where are you going in Europe? I can recommend a good provider for England and/or Italy
lisbon then porto form 1month then paris for another how did u get your phone unlocked?
When I was in Europe I already had an unlocked phone with my, an i-Mate. With my Dream, the second I put a foreign SIM in it and turned it on it asked for an unlock code, which I bought from eBay.
I have not been to Portugal, I almost went last January, they had a last minute sale for 8 nights Hotel+Flight+Rental car for $550 including taxes. I had to work though.
There are a lot of Rebel Simcard users on XDA and many other sites who have been mis-sold a product.
We were told that it would work with 3G networks and we would be able to use Calls SMS and Data all without interruption.
As all users of Rebel Simcard v1.1 will know...this is not true.
Rebel Simcard have blatently breached the Sale of Goods act 1979 which states:
‘Wherever goods are bought they must "conform to contract". This means they must be as described, fit for purpose and of satisfactory quality’.
These cards do not perform 'as described' so clearly do not "conform to contract".
Please could any v1.1 Rebel Simcard users please show your support by posting your story up on this thread.
For when rebelsim read this my email is [email protected]
I contacted rebelsim last night explaining that I am spending £15 per month for the next 12 months on an o2 sim contract because i had a phone i couldnt use and only bought because they claimed they could fully unlock it with 3g. The least they could do for me is send me a usb programmer, something they sell for £10 (and probably only costs them £2 to produce), after im going to spending £180 on a contract i only took out because of this companies false claims to unlock the streak. I even offered to send them the programmer back at my own cost after using it!
They writ back simply saying
"hi
at most we can offer you a coupon code to get £5 off
rebelsim"
Although they're not just straight out saying they cant help, which they originally did, i still dont feel it appropriate for them to sell me something, for any price, to make something work that i paid £25 pound for in the first place and has cost me a lot of money afterwards.
I would appreciate a reply from rebelsim either through here or my email address above as this is unacceptable!
how about u stop beggin and be happy they even bothered to make an updated firmware for ur phone jesus ..................... they didnt have to

We are not begging at all, where did you make that assumption from?
They didn't have to make an updated firmware for the Rebel Simcard, but what they do have to do is abide by UK law and sell something that works as it was described when sold.
last time i checked the rebelsim page they did list all the faults of the 1.1 fw ... if that would be the matter there would be an uprising , ur asking for something completely different ... like gimme a nvidia gf480 cuz u bought an 280 (as if they were identical in hw witch they arent but the rebelsims are)

I'm ditching rebelsim 1.2 seems i cant recieve calls in 3g mode. Maybe 1.3 will fix that
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
My rebel simply works fine... No problems at all sending/receiving call or SMS, not not had a problem using 3G ether. I do have to take it out and register with the network every so often in another phone but for 25 quid you get what you pay for... Stop complaining and buy an unlocked streak if its that much of an issue!

Well there are some of us for whom the Rebel Simcard does not work as described when sold.
This is against UK law, specifically The Sale of Goods Act 1979.
The buyer of any item covered by UK law is entitled to have it working as described when sold.
I and others like me feel we are well within our rights to complain about this matter.
To this end, Rebel Simcard have seen their error and are now re-programming everyones Rebel Simcard v1.1 for free.

I purchased the rebelsim card1.1 a few weeks ago after reading on there web site that it would work with 3g,but after putting it in and using it for a few days ,it just lost service and would not work at all,complete and utter waste of time and money,do not buy one,just get an unlocked streak,and save yourself the grief,i paid with paypal so put in a complaint to paypal and got my money refunded including postage,so my advice is stay well clear of the rebel sim cards for the streak,it is not worth it,just get an unlocked streak.
Hi! What happens is this
My family in the USA brought a Samsung Galaxy S7 edge then they send to me (I live in Mexico) and when I try to use with Mexican networks it was locked, I found an unlocked company (DoctorSim.com) but I'm afraid, do you think that if I unlocked my phone, I will can use as normal? Or it will be another issues? It worth 60 dollars, and well, in Mexican economy that's a lot of money!
Please respond, and share your thoughts I want to use my Galaxy (sorry for my bad English)
And in Mexico is legal unlock your cellphone with any method and in Mexico the networks don't block your phone in case of robbery.
I've used unlocker.com and they usually will unlock ur phone , as long as it's not listed as stolen. Also many , many local phone stores that aren't affiliated with a company. Like a place that sell boost and phones like that, a personal phone store business they have the machine to unlock those phones, at much cheaper. Most you should pay is $40, usually 29 bucks is the rate. Hit me back and I can give you some legit spots that will and if they can't they will refund you the money where most won't. About to unlock my Tmobile phone that's not paid off threw one very shortly so I can let you know in coming weeks about that

Really? In México are people with those machines but im a little insecure, maybe you can send me your websites to unlock
cellunlocker.net I'd try first cause there Logitech, and you can actually get them on the phone with the number listed on site. Many of these unlock sites have no ways to talk to anyone. I've never had a problem with them. Theyve unlocked numerous phones I've justried bought. Not sure there price thou. Let me know how you make out
