I have an VODAFONE VPA COMPACT III (v1605), which I am trying to use with a Bmobile SIMM card in Barbados.
When I first tried the SIMM card I never got a signal, the phone just kept searching despite the fact that I have good covereage. When I insert a pre-paid Vodaphone SIMM card the phone works perfectly.
Incase the phone wasn't unlocked when purchased it I have ran HERM_Unlock_v2a.exe on the phone to unlock it. The PDA now shows an ! after the signal symbol and when opened the message says No Service. Both the Network selection and Network bands are set to Auto.
