8) OK to start out. i called t-moble to get the unlock code and thay gave it to me with no problem,(VIA EMAIL) the code did not work. the IMEI number i gave them does not match the one in the unit. (*#06# or start, setings, system, device information, identity) to get the IMEI number. so i gave them the number in the unit, and that number comes back not valid. :shock: OK fine, so i go and download the up grade tool and do what it says to do. the unit LOOKS wonderfull. :P its unlocked, but now i have no signal. so now i think, :idea: u know what. this has happend b4. i had a MOTOROLA V180 I UNLOCKED from T-MOBLE and it did not work at home, :roll: but in the city it worked fine. the city is 80 miles from my house. could this be the problem. my cellphone company is, cellular one. the wallaby is from T-MOBLE. My IMEI number. the first nine numbers match on the lable and in unit, the last five numbers are (00009) or (00001). :twisted:
PS: Im on my way to the city today. ill let u know if it works...

I dont think it will work, have you asked them if the actual imei you got from the phone is blocked? What happens when you attempt to make a call, what happens if you call the phone from another phone?

ok people this is what happened :D, when i got into the city it connected on at&t system, sometimes it would connect to other systems but it did work. It was roming while i was in the city and it worked fine, but sometimes i dialed out and it didn't connect but it had a full signal. Now, i called celluar one and they told me that their system or frequency's were on 850mhz and that is why i am having a problem. how can i make this unit recieve on 850 or the 800mhz band that it needs to be recieving when im in my home area

I am afraid you cannot, I am amazed that it works at all on that frequency but it would explain it if in the city you are in very close proximity to a main repeater that is working on your phone through rf breakthrough rather than the correct frequency.
