i know its the wrong place but as some one posted anout, there orange sim card i was wondering if you lot could be of help!

i have a nokia 330e, the one thats on orange! i have a data cable for it! which goes in my serila port! im runing xp

i was wondering if anyone knew of the software that i have to use to unlock it and or how to do it and get the software ias i have been loking all around the net but it in volves warez sites and i dont like using them!

also im interested in changing the imei this is no where near importnat thank alot!

If you mean unlocking as in removing the network restrictions from a SIM card, Orange will release your SIM. (for a price) Paying your current service provider is the only legal way to do it IIRC, and discussion of any other methods will only result in this thread being closed faster than you can say "Kiss My Arse"

I'm pretty sure the IMEI is hardcoded into the handset, and therefore 100% permanent.

no i want to releve the network restrictions from the phone! this is perfectly legal to do, imei is nalso not hardcorded in to the phone! i have had software to do both but none of them will do the 330! please people all that ui want to know is the name of the software to where to get it! thankyou please ethis thread is not about wether it is legal or not becaue it is!

its illegal shut up

ive seen software thatwill change ur imie number but it only changesit visualy it is uniqe to the phone and cant be changed

I know for some phones you can edit firmwares and upload them to the phone with new IMEI numbers - but your service provider will find out so quickly and will hunt you down, possibly even take legal action.
As for unlocking, yes, it can be done, yes it is illegal, and yes it is fairly risky too.
It involves re-flashing your phones firmware with a "pure, nokia original".
The ones on locked phones are modified to only allow one sim/network/subset.

Generally though, it's all illegal and can get you in a spot of bother.

The IMEI numbers on the latest Nokias have been tweaked so that people cannot do exactly what you are attempting to do. Why are you and DJRiggs (or whatever his name is) trying to hack and crack things. Surely if riggs can afford a 2Mb ADSL connection and yourself a 1Mb NTL BB line you can afford to buy an offline moby or pay the unlocking fee. Get a life.

Note to the moderators : The two above mentioned members seem to insist on discusing immoral if not illegal activites, can anything be done about this? This is a nice forum could we keep it that way.

Unlocking phones from networks without paying that network or allowing them to know is illegal. Dicussion of such activities on Digital Spy forums is also against our terms and conditions.
