Guest nitefly Posted January 3, 2006 Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 I have recently bought an SPV C550 and i want to unlock it so I can use my O2 simcard. Does anyone have any info on this? Also could someone tell me any tips on random things like getting the most out of my battery etc. Many thanks Nathan. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mini_man Posted January 3, 2006 Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 Yep there is a free method here http://www.modaco.com/INFO_Decert_SIM_Unlo...50-t222786.html To get the best out your battery, go to settings, power managment change the backlight to 10 and the display to 30 then enable light sensor. These will save your battery, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest nitefly Posted January 3, 2006 Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 Thankyou for the reply, I appreciate it. However, that unlocking method does not work for me, for some reason. I have done everything it says to do on there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mini_man Posted January 3, 2006 Report Share Posted January 3, 2006 ok, install the cab on ure phone, then plug the phone into the pc, and then run the spvservice.exe program on ure pc! follow the instructions for sim unlock and it will work!
