Guest sid8001 Posted August 26, 2011 Report Share Posted August 26, 2011 Is it possible they do it by reducing the credit on your sim by £20? Contacted Orange They have applied for the unlock code from ZTE for me, they tell me to keep at least £20.42 in credit for the next 10 to 14 days and then i will get the code by email and text. All very simple if it actually arrives, fingers crossed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest den169 Posted August 27, 2011 Report Share Posted August 27, 2011 Will they give you a refund after the 14 days or just replace it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tillaz Posted August 27, 2011 Report Share Posted August 27, 2011 (edited) they should as its only 2 weeks old and its faulty, most places give 30 days but saying by oranges standards they will probz try making some crap up just like the way they are stringing everybody along with unlock codes. shame really i liked the phone. edit: if im lucky and get a refund i will buy the phone again but using a freinds orange number to get it for £119.99 just relised why they say to top up £20 credit on your phone & will be took that way... probly because phone credit is non refundable.

Guest adaptive1 Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 I got ZTE Blade from Yoigo in Ibiza Spain on a sale (79 euros). I've tried unlocking using this: http://www.nextgense...com/calculator/ And other places that all give the same 8 digit SIM network unlock code. The code doesn't work. I'm wondering if it has something to do with the phone having been offered at a discounted price. However, I called Yoigo and they know nothing about it. They say since I bought the phone without plan, they have no code to give me. Maybe it has to do with my phone being some kind of newer generation, like gen2, I've heard about. I don't know the generation of my phone, and what to do if it is a different generation, anyhow. Can someone suggest some solutions or give me any more information on this problem? Thanks!

Gary you can download an app from the market called Ask Mr Pigfish this will tell you if its gen1 or gen2 you should check you imie is not black listed but your best bet is asking this in the blade forms.. or try this http://arrtoo.x10.mx/unlockBlade.php get the imie number from in the phone as the one on the box may not be right (not original box).

The app is ZTE Blade/San Francisco Network Unlocker. 3) This site shows IMEI is not blacklisted (but maybe the DB is outdated?) http://www.amta.org....of.your.Handset I'm not sure if you have specific ZTE Blade forums you might have in mind. I haven't seen too many. I guess you mean one of these: http://android.modaco.com/forum/453-zte-blade-libra-blademodacocom/ I'll look around. Please instruct further if possible. Thanks!

Guest john.smith Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 Hi Gary I think it's the forum for Skate and you might want to visit the one for Blade instead. :P I got ZTE Blade from Yoigo in Ibiza Spain on a sale (79 euros).
