Hi all. I am new to this forum and wondered if someone can answer a couple of (?)simple questions.

1. Would unlocking my C500 have any effect on the performance of the phone __ i.e. would it not do anything that it can do now?

2. If the answer to the question above is NO, then please tell me how to unlock my phone. I have never done this before and would really appreciate it if someone walks me through it, please.

Thanks a bundle.

unlocking the phone doesnt stop any of the functionality of the phone.. it just allows you to use any sim card. you can get it unlocked here

Naim, did you mean application unlocking ?

The answer is still the same ; no it won't adversely affect the phone.

There is a full guide here - > OTA

The direct link is :

Follow the instructions carefully. Use the IMEI number you get from entering *#06# into the keypad. Connect the phone to GPRS at least once before doing it.

It's a lot easier than you might think :wink: :lol:

no same problem again all it does is it lights up the phone and doesn't sisplay any message at all is the phone supposed to be connected to my computer is the setting in the data connection supposed to be changed. i've wasted over 2 hours trying to get it to work. i keep trying every day at least 10 times it won't work

many thanks for your help

It should work via GPRS as it's not then try using Passthrough on your PC. A few people have had to try many times then all of a sudden it worked (mine worked first time) but if it doesn't work I believe there is an app you can get from them. Try Passthrough first and if it doesn't work let us know.

I know it's a silly question but you are entering the imei you get from the phone and you are entering your mobile number in the format +4477... ?

Data connection dhould be set to auto and provided you are connected to ActiveSync it should use passthrough to connect to the internet - you should be able to browse the web without the G appearing by the battery meter.
