6230 - How to tell if it's unlocked/sim-free? by RG
Hi, I was just wondering if anyone knows a code to enter on a Nokia 6230 to establish whether the phone is locked to a network or not? I know I can just put in a different sim card and see, but I've not got one to hand at the moment. I've googled this but nothing seemed to come up. It's an O2 Online 6230 (firmware v 4.28). Best,

Default security code for a Nokia 6310i by Neil Kiley
Orange (bless their cotton socks) have sent me a new SIM card. The old one has expired, and so I merrily put in the new one, and the phone is asking me for a "security number". Ah. I call Orange, ask what it is, they say it is the default one that came with my phone, if I dig out the original packaging it will be on there. Great. Any idea what the number might be? It's a Nokia 6310i. ...

RSS feeds for mobiles by Gordon Freeman
I'm looking for RSS feeds that contain short but complete news stories like you can find on Ceefax. The BBC's RSS feeds tend to be just a sentence or so touting a URL which has the actual story, but as I'm using GPRS I'd rather not use the web. Reuters' feeds are somewhat better (go to http://uk.reuters.com/tools/rss for a list of their feeds) but I wondered if anyone had any gems to...

Sony Ericsson Phone Unlock Code? by Steve
Just been given a phone by my brother in law and I trid putting my Vodafone sim in it, and it asks for the 'phone unlock code' Brother in law says he has never set a code in the phone, so does anyone have any idea why its asking for one and what it might be, a default one maybe? The phone is a T610. Any way of getting around this lock? Or is it a bin job?

unlock SE p900 and treo 600? by AT
Hi I am thinking of getting either a p900 or treo600 pda phone however, does anyone know if they can be unlocked (from Orange)? I do travel a bit and when I am in the far east, I usually get a lock sim card for making local calls - much cheaper than roaming! I did send an email to orange and ask but they could only unlock it if you terminate your contract!?!

Unlocking a Blackberry 7130g by Russell Hafter News
I recently was 'given' one of these by Orange as a 'free' upgrade. Seemed like a good idea at the time. However, GPRS always failed on the phone. Orange Customer Cervice told me that I in order to get GPRS on a Blackberry I needed to pay an additional £5 (I think) on my monthly contract, and that the shop should have told me this when giving me the phone. (They did not.)
