Guest jrinco11 Posted December 8, 2005 Report Posted December 8, 2005 hey ya'll, so I recently bought a new c550 off ebay, and i found out after I got it that i need to get a orange sim card to app unlock and then sim unlock the phone -- so i bought a new sim card and just got it today, it's a pay as you go -- I went through the steps listed on the image at http://img230.echo.cx/img230/6825/applicat...nlocking8zp.jpg -- but I don't think it's ever going to send me the message "your handset has the certficate security disabled" becuase the only number I had to put in there was my US tmobile sim card number, and if i try to put that sim card in the orange phone, it just brings me to tohe sim locked out screen..... i tried to go to " orange.co.uk/payasyougo/registration like in the manual of the sim card, but that page doesn't exist, and i called orange over in the UK but their registration dept is closed till tomorrow...and i can't wait another minute! i've had this phone for 2 weeks now and i haven't been able to use it!!! any suggestions??? (i can't run the SPV-Services software cause i can't get the cert file installed cause of the app lock, which is what i'm trying to get taken care of now) please help!!

Guest fluffcat1 Posted December 9, 2005 Report Posted December 9, 2005 You won't be able to register as a US based customer and they won't be able to activate your sim - unless the sim is activated to roam from within it's home network the sim update message from orange won't get through. So without coverage you can't get coverage :-( But you should at least be able to boot the phone up with the 'dead' sim inside? Richard
Guest ericharlz Posted December 9, 2005 Report Posted December 9, 2005 but he should be able to decertify his handset using the registryeditor from the link provided above though.
