First I would like to know where to get one in Europe before worrying about unlocking........ :-(

hope no one is typing one the same time I'm doing it... here's the general translation.

1. Register as a JustMio VIP member

2. Connect the phone via USB, and make sure ActiveSync is STARTED and CONNECTED to your phone.

3. Click on the unlock link to enter the unlock website.

4. Read the instructions, legal mumbo jambo, etc. etc. Click on I Agree From the screen shots looks like the only link in the bottom of the page

5. Login with your JustMio VIP member if you haven't already done so.

6. OK This looks like a standard ActiveX install screen I guess Once you open the unlock page, the program will start automatically, nothing will be installed on your system.

7. Click Lock or Unlock to perform the action. Once you're done a mail message will appear to tell you your phone settings has been changed Wheter the message is on the phone or via your email I don't know

8. Once done the program will close, nothing will be installed to your system.

9. The program can also re-LOCK your system jsut come back to the page and select lock.

10. The program only partially unlocks your MIO, it doesn't completely unlock your phone. Should you hard reset your phone, your phone will be locked again.

I can't read ANYTHING on the webpage so I'm only guessing.

BUT...

when you enter the site and move through the pages, you will see 8380 on the bottom left and 8390 on the bottom right. Clicking on the right-side button will download and install the .cab file I posted above.

Are you getting to that page?

Oh bloody hell that'll teach me to attempt translation without running through the pages :)

Anyway after going through the EULA you'll come to a page with two buttons. If you don't have chinese fonts.. You'll probably only see one butotn marked 8380 and one marked 8390 just click on the appropraite one for your phone.

does the 8380 link work for you? It doesn't for me. If it does, post a link to the file or the file itself?

The link I posted goes straight to the file it tries to send and install.

Well I don't have an Mio so I can't try. I don't think you should try to link to the file directly cause it's an ActiveX control that does the setup.... hmmm... are you using IE?
