SGS2 O2 PAYG in my hands - Galaxy S II General

This morning I called O2 to check on my PAYG order and was told it is out of stock so the order was not processed. Went to the local O2 and bought one! Very happy!
Quick notes below and I will add more info later. If you have questions please ask:
1. Screen is AMAZING - looks like a high-gloss magazine print, but very little reflections.
2. The device is SIM locked to O2. In store I was told it is locked for a year but I can unlock it with after market shops and services (non-O2). I already had an O2 PAYG SIM so no need to buy one. Vodafone SIM requires Network Lock Control Key. Will checkout online unlock options.
UPDATE: Paid online for unlock service at http://www.mobileunlocked.co.uk/. Tracking informations states 'Order in Progress with Bulk Supplier. Delivery Time: 6 to 12 Hours from order time'.
UPDATE 2: Got unlock code back in 11 minutes! Unlock successful!
3. O2 stuff: Wallpaper is a panorama view of the O2 arena area (actually nice!). Boot and shutdown screens are with O2 logo. No other O2 stuff and no O2 apps.
4. About info:
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKDD-CL161513
Build number: GINGERBREAD.XWKDD
Baseband version: I9100XXKDH

Congratulations...you'll enjoy it very much
swyped from my GT-I9100 using XDA App

Obviously we demand an extremely indepth and thorough review of the devices every feature!
(don't bow down to pressure to run it through quadrant benchmarks or anything, no doubt someone will be along shortly to ask you... if on the other hand you feel like doing some benchmarks for your own interest by all means share)

does it come with any additional microSD card?

No MicroSD bundled. If they did it was probably a rubbish slow 8GB. When I need extra storage I'll get a Class 10 32GB.

How much for the unlock?
Can you report back on when you receive the code and if it works?
Thanks.

Great that it works. I'll add it to my "How to unlock guide".
Thanks,
James

Although it has absolutely no relevance to me whatsoever, that information on unlocking is great news for many here I am sure, thanks.

It cost £15 (I paid with PayPal) and took 11 minutes from order confirmation email (almost immediate after payment) to NCK code in a second email. The instructions were very clear.

Is there any physical O2-Branding on the Device?

No physical branding on the device and not on the box. Not even on the barcode.

Did you happen to buy it in a London store; trying to locate one today in London is proving to be a hassle; some are claiming stock is arriving in the afternoon.

I only have a Vodafone micro SIM from iPhone 4. I will check later and report. Shouldn't be a problem though. It is very clear when a device is locked.

same here... o2 shop at the O2 Arena claimed on the phone that they have PAYG stock available and 20min later when I arrived there they said they have none and don't know ETA.
Needless to say I was "a bit" upset...
Shop in Stratford have them in stock, but for contract only. Been told to phone again tomorrow for PAYG.

Hi just to let you know the Richmond 02 store has 3 left and the phone is sim free and the only branding is the startup and shutdown images.

Are you sure it is SIM free? Mine wasn't and it doesn't seem likely they have both SIM-locked and SIM-free devices.
I got mine in North Finchley. They had one unit and I asked to reserve for me and they did.

I really hate the O2 logo on boot and shutdown. Anyway to remove it?

Well it has my vodafone sim card in it now and its working. It was the first sim card ever put into the device.

thats the cheapest so far ... unless you ask your carrier for the sim unlock code. I know in US your carrier has to give it to you after 3 months of service don't know about UK regulations.

aah that sucks ... sorry .. That was a suggestion for op as he didn't want to pay the 50 (wait it out another 2 months ).
UK providers
UK phone providers Orange - will ask for the full value of the contract to unlock it - ie if you have 12 months left at £30 then £360 for the code + unlock fee £20 quidish.
Not sure about T-Mo - but i believe at the end of the contract they will give it for free, but dont say your going to another network, as they'll charge you for the privilidge.
Been there done that... htccode.com appear to be the cheapest at present at £15.
Reviews of service appear to be very positive!

Found this Forum whilst looking for quick way to unlock HTC Touch HD - follwed this recommendation and it's unlocked From sending Paypal payment to getting code took about 5 mins - made contact via MSN and they are really good - if anyone is going to do this, saves asking them the same question as I did - when you enter the unlock code it'll say it's accepted but will then say it's locked again - enter the code once more - that'll do it

What's funny, I bought my HD at Bouygues Telecom in Paris. They claimed it's locked to them. Once I came to the hotel and inserted my SIM card - it worked with no problems. They lied! Actually, I think the same thing was at Fnac. They had two versions of the phone - locked to one of French providers for EUR 589 and unlocked for EUR 699. I guess it was the same phone. I bought my one for 549, flashed to WWE and it works like a charm!
its illegal
In france, its against the law to sell phones that are locked

Yes i did ask O2 for it they said it would be upto 28 days... and would cost me 15.00 pounds.
i paid 17.99 on MOBILEUNLOCKED.COM for a 5-30 mins service which i thought was worth the extra few pounds.
digging around a bit there are a few websites this guy runs (the contact info in it is the same) and the e-mails come from mobileunlocked.com
If they clearly sold you a phone without simlock, they must provide a device without simlock, it is as simple as that. If they are not willing to change it fast, I would give it back and get it somewhere else.
If they are customer friendly, they usually do have ways and solutions. A Samsung phone I had was unlocked in a service center within 10 minutes, my Xperia took the same way. I actually never "buy" phones through contractual down payments...
will let you guys know how I get on with leo.unlock-now.com

i've used leo.unlock-now.com as well, but put in the HD2 first rather than the HD2 T8585 (Which is the O2 one). Haven't heard back yet, but have sent an email to state what I did wrong. I'll let you know too!

Anyone heard from their respective websites yet? I really doubt that a website will be able to unlock it over the insternet in "a few hours" when a phone provider has to send the information off to htc to get it done.
I have had bad experiences in the past trying to unlock sonys and nokias (not mine) and wouldnt use one again. Im sure there are very reliable sites out there but the ones I used which I researched before using just took my money then kept it for 2 days before saying that my phone couldnt be unlocked.

GOOD NEWS-FREE "sim lock" UNLOCKING

Good news everybody on UK O2 network. Just been on the phone with O2 today(1/12/09) and been advised that unlocking O2 HD2's is free. also been advised that it can take up to 28 days, but as long as it's FREE that's not abig issue. Sorry to other networks users, you might need to contact your network rpoviders if you HD2 is locked to your network.
Blue Skies...
yeah, O2 are unlocking all locked contract phones free, only exception being the palm pre. Just need to go to https://www.o2.co.uk/apps/help/help?qid=1&q1=2&route=unlocking&case=Handset Unlocking Form and fill in your details
Is this once your contract is fully paid-up? Why would they lock them in the first place?
Good news for some people, I guess I am lucky, because despite the contract my operator don't lock the HD2.

Did you get it for free? If you compare Globul's offer (almost UK SIM free price + 2 year contract) with any of the UK pay monthly offers you will understand. The Bulgarian mobile operators are simply pathetic and no one which uses their services is lucky.

well nearly all o2 phones are already unlocked at present it's just some xda's, blackberrys and iphones. They will unlock it for you whenever you want as long as you continue paying your contract
Thanks for the heads up just submitted the form and await the code
Thank you for the link - I was thinking of paying to get it unlocked anyway.
Help! I tried and it says
"The supplied IMEI doesn't appear to be valid. It must be of 15 digits." The HD2 reports back with a 17 digit number....

yeah, ignore the last two digits displayed on the actual device (if you did *#06#). Just input the first 15 displayed.
The number on the box is 15 digits long and the number on the phone is 17. I don't know why.

Nope, I did't get it for free, actually 389 EUR + 13 EUR/month for 1 year = 545 EUR and they give me - 750Mb internet traffic, 75 messages and 150 minutes. If I have to buy the device alone, I have to pay around 600 EUR without anything else. Also I get it sim unlocked from Globul, so I think this is quite a bargain for Bulgaria, but I have to agree that Bulgarian mobile operators are pathetic.
xD I got it for a 24 Month contract without any simlock
8€(x24) a month + 225€ for the phone.

First i got this reply a couple of days ago:
Hi,
Thank you for your email.
We have been informed by the manufacturer that the IMEI you have
provided is not showing on there database. This could be down to one of
two reasons:-
a). The IMEI number you have provided is incorrect (this can be obtained
by typing *#06# into the handset.
b). The IMEI number you have provided does not belong to a RIM device.
Kind Regards
Justin Peter

Then i sent this reply:
Hi, thanks for the reply. Regarding the below problem with my unlock request, I have rechecked my IMEI and it is the same as the one I submitted and as for 'point b' stating that it must not be a RIM device, nowhere on the form did I enter that it was a RIM device. My handset is made by HTC and the model is a HD2 as was submitted on the form. Please advise of any other problems.
Thanks,
....................................................
Then i receive this today:
Good morning
Thanks for your email about unlatching your HTC phone. I understand from
your email that you've rechecked the IMEI number is it's the same. Also,
your handset isn't a RIM device. I appreciate you're using a HTC phone.
I'll certainly check this for you.
unfortunately I'm unable to comment if you can get your HTC phone
unlatched from us. To discuss this case further, please call our
customer service team on 0870 600 3009, free from your O2 mobile
between:

- Sundays 10am to 6pm.
They'll certainly be in a better position to help you.
I'm sorry for being unable to help you through this email. Please
understand that we're online customer service and we've got limited

than happy to assist you.

Whats going on? Anyone managed to get their code yet off O2? I think i might re-submit my info and try again.
I got my unlatch code and it worked with no problems, now I have an unbranded unlocked HD2
o2 have had that unlock page for some time. I've read several threads (and has also been what happened to me) that many peopled don't get the code after the first 28 days, and you have to phone them and they'll say "oh it didn't submit right"
the guy I spoke to even opened with "you know there may be a charge?"
so yes they will unlock it, but you might have to hassle them a bit!
mine came pre-unlocked - might be lock of the draw (teehee, get it?)- check sims before you go through the hassle.
used my t-mobile sim right up until the numbers switched over.

This is my long winded story i got a streak on sat from 02 on Sunday i read that dell are selling them unlocked so come Monday i sent the streak back to 02 as soon as it arrived
On Tuesday i ordered one from dell unlocked and they said there was a week waiting list so i went on the list.
NOW TODAY i was looking at a utube video about unboxing the streak and the guy on the vid said he had just gone into CAR PHONE and bought it Sim free and unlocked for £429 so i went on there website and it says on there its locked to 02.
So i phoned up customer services to see if it is locked or unlocked and they assure me it is unlocked Sim free unbranded and it arrives tomorrow morning so we will see then
Hi all,
Well i bought mine the day before release direct from CPW by phone and thought it was going to be unlocked as they say Sim free but until now none of the Streaks from CPW have been unlocked. Usually all phones from CPW are unlocked and Sim free just means you can buy it without a contract in this instance but i bought mine on a Mobile Broadband tariff @£25pm with 3GB of Data per month. I have to say although i had heard horror stories about 02's data speeds it has not been what i have found and am getting just under 2mbps speeds every where i have been.
As for the branding on the Streak well that really is virtually non existent it consists of an 02 splash screen on start up and some Wallpaper pictures of the 02 Dome. The only other thing they have done is set the browsers home page to 02 but that can be changed to one of your own choice as it's not locked to it and can be changed easily.
@lufc
Look forward to hearing if your is unlocked when it arrives as i know many other current users that would love to have an unlocked Streak.
Marc
UPDATE !!!!!!
Streak arrived this morning put in my TESCO Sim card and hay presto it WORKED made a phone call and all is well.
So i started to play around a bit about an hour later went to the market to download update for google maps and 10 Min's later it was still not downloading so i turned off wifi and tried to download through 3G and it would not connect,strange i thought,so i got out my VIRGIN MOBILE Sim card and placed that in the phone and hay presto it comes up THIS PHONE IS LOCKED TO THIS NETWORK. Tesco use 02 air waves that is why tesco worked so them B---ards at Car phone lied to me so sorry to every one who said it would be locked i have phoned them back up and they are going to ring me in 10 Min's looks like i will be getting one from dell after all
Hi lufc,
No problem you were only reporting what they told you and i really think the problem is calling these units Sim Free confuses everyone most probably including the poor staff member that told you and thought it was unlocked.

If you buy direct they have their own firmware for the phone so you can follow this guide.

Otherwise it does not even appear in the phone. Its a build in feature from them, They have some sort of partition on the phone.

I thought i'll never get mine, i've ordered phone through service's provider online shop 9.10.2016(preorder) and had to wait until 13.10.2016(all providers in my country started deliveries that day- start of event 14.10.2016-18.11.2016) since it was end of the week i've recived mine 17.10.2016. The same day i tried to register my phone with a code i was given, to my suprise it did not worked at all, i've send an email to company that organised this promotion, it took two days and my perseverance to finally make it work, i had to try diffrent combination of 2 middle letters. 19.10.2016 i fortunatly registered it and waiting had started. 7.11.2016 after all i got an email that confirmed proper registration and that they will send it in the next 30 days. Just hope i'll get it late next week or week after that. Did any of you guys got the same problem? How long it took before you recived yours headphones?
No I just popped my IMEI number in and got mine like 2/3 days after.
Was pretty simple if I'm honest.
It's probably my luck i guess, company that organizes that is greenmark, a third party not Sony's Polish branch
Finally i got mine yeasterday, sound quality is good, build quality is acceptable, they fit well and comfort of use is high
Filled in my details and it wouldn't accept me for the offer.
Sony XZ Purchased from Carphone Warehouse, member of staff mentioned the headphone offer to me during purchase but the offer website doesn't accept my IMEI so i'm out of luck
same here website says my code is invalid.
