Is the MDA pro sim locked? - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading

I heard the MDA Pro is locked and only can use T-mobile sim card, is it ture?

yes, i'm too

Netlock: True
Hi,
the MDA Pro from T-Mobile is not SIMlocked but Netlocked. If you buy the MDA Pro without a card contract you will get the unlock code for free. If you bought it with a contract and got the device for less than 749€ , then you have to pay for the unlockcode (99€).
Cheers

This ONLY is valid for German devices, purchased by German residents in German shops. T-Mobile in the Netherlands stated that they will NOT offer the same service, and T-Mobile Germany stated they will NOT offer this services to foreign machines.

...
seems that ....
T-Mobile MDA Pro is indeed SIM locked (at least these models now on sale) but under phone number 01805330160 one can get unlock code after providing IMEI number of this phone - if the phone was purchased without subscription
..
I'm expecting an MDA Pro bought without contract and hope that this is true.

Ups...
Sorry, I didn't know that. I thought that the TM procedures regarding this are the same in every country.
Cheers

I can confirm the whole thing.
Bought the MDA Pro from Germany and I have received in 4 hours the simlock code for free.
Now to the english ROM !!!!

Copy that!
Called T-Mobile Customer Service a few minutes ago and they told me that you will get the unlocking code for free if you paid the full price without a bundled contract.
With a 24 month contract the unlocking code will cost 99,50 EUR.
And if you wait 24 month you'll get the code for free also
I have sent my invoice to them and now I wait for my code

You can use any of the ROMs out here but it will not unlock your device. ASAP you'll get the code you should unlock it.

Need help to unlock the MDA Pro
I have purchased a simlocked MDA Pro from Germany but the guy i bought it from does not have the receipt. As i live in Greece T-Mobile doesnt give me the code. Is there anyone that can help me get the code from T-Mobile Germany with my IMEI No.
Thanks

Contact T-Mobile on 150, it costs £15
yahwn
mate it is only 15 pounds if you have a tmobile contract in the UK, and they don't do foreign Imei numbers they just send you a letter telling to go to your own country.
As you notice above people are not situated in the UK. countries like holland germany etc ask way more and demand you to have a reciept or so..
Which we dont have or else we wont be asking here HAHA.
:twisted:
and
if you do think i am wrong..
this is my imei : 355195000479187
call tmobile and please get me the unlockcode.. i pay you 30 pounds for the code!!! 100% profit for you there mate :twisted:

T-mobile say no to win mob 6

Apologises if ppl are aware, but just to let you know T-mobile UK have confirmed they are not to release win mob 6 for vario 2.
Although I understand the reasons I find this annoying and shows a lack of support for present and existing devices.
part of the email sent to myself goes onto state...
"T-Mobile UK will be including Windows Mobile 6 on all new MDA devices
that are launched, starting with the MDA Touch in July and MDA Vario III
in September.
The existing devices in the portfolio will continue with Windows Mobile
5 for the remainder of their lives."
I asked T-Mobile in the Netherlands several months ago the seem question, and they said that there will be no ROM upgrade for the Vario II.
If you ask my opinion? I don't care, I like the cooked ROM's found on XDA!
So many benefits of home cooked ROMS(No more annoying t-mobile splash screens, no more pink soft buttons), huge storage, stable...go on go on!

I agree. I like most of the cooked roms here, and my Vario II has found renewed life due to roms like Schaps which is what is currently running on it. T-mobile also don't vale loyal customers that have 4 lines with them as I asked for an Ameo free as an upgrade to only 1 of those lines and they flat out refused me. sad to see they've gotten too big for their pants that they've forgotten who pays their wages by getting loyal multi line rental customers who spend well over £100 a month just in line rental alone not counting the addition services I get. They seem to think they can make up revenue in new subscribers rather then keep loyal ones

Some people don't want to invalidate their warranty by flashing different ROM's.
If HTC, O2 and other networks around the world can release WM6 why can't T-Mobile??? They're taking the p*ss!!
Lets all bombard them with e-mails!!
Hi there ...
I got an answer from T-Mobile Germany ... an they will release a WM6 for Vario II.
Sehr geehrter Herr M. ,
vielen Dank für Ihre Anfrage an T-Mobile.
Wir können Ihnen mitteilen, daß das Update Ende 3.Quartal erscheint.
Vorraussichtlich schon zwischen August und September.
Danke für Ihre Geduld.

Hope, that someone will be able to share T-Mobile WM6 GER
As has already been posted, the ROM thing isn't too relevant unless you're worried about warranty.
What's really annoyed me today is that I'm due an upgrade on my VarioII and, although I'm holding out for a Kaiser, I thought I'd look at the online upgrades. I'm appalled to see that upgrading my phone, compared with taking out a new contract is more expensive. For example, a Nokia 8600 is a £290 upgrade or £170 on a new contract. WTF!!!

thats t-mobile loyalty for you, there aint non!
i have in the past transfered my number to a different network pay as you go, and take out a new t-mobile contract and transfer the number back to save £100ish
Before we continue slagging off T-mobile Uk. I will stand by them when it comes to customer service... no other service provider gives a better service, better tariffs and better phone options. I've the experince of how little orange know of cs... after complaining to them about billing they made excusses and fobbed me off.
The point to the thread is I was disappointed and feel if microsoft had not released any service packs for their OS's then businesses and many private users would merely walk away and buy into another os. We as contract holders are bound by the term of contract. I believe in the uk we are kind of lucky as we have our phone heavily subsides. where as other countries don't. But this doesn't excuse any company of applying the stack the products high and sell them cheap attitude without the assumption that both parties have made a commitment.

[Q] Please Help. I bought Fire Phone from T-Mobile Germany

Last week I travelled to Frankfurt Germany and I bought unlocked Amazon Fire Phone 32 GB 449euro from T-Mobile shop Zeil road Frankfurt.
But I had to travelled to the Netherlands . I went there without testing.
And now I come back to Thailand and open the phone.
It shows Pin required for unlocking SIM.
But I do not have Pin.
What should I do ?
Please help me.
You can go to Telekom Website and unlock your phone for 99€ - this is why firephones have Bad reviews in germany.

But I paid 449euro for unlocked phone.
I still should pay another 100euro for unlocked code?
This is why the reviews are so Bad.
It has no sim lock but a net lock

Here you go
Thank you
And I have to choose "Jetzt entsparrcode anfordern" , nicht wahr?
Yes
Danke schön
I don't think you can use the site to unlock the phone if you don't live in Germany.
You have to pay per "Nachnahme" with the Deutsche Post (Pay at the door, if you get the code delivered). This will not work if you are not in Germany.
Although there is "Nachnahme International", i don't think Thailand will be on the list of countries for that.

I try to unlock with payment 99.50 euro.
But T-mobile website needs rückrufnummer but only German number.
So sad.
How should I do ?
