Hello there everyone,


I have had my v1615 since the 15th of october, I rang up my business team to unlock my handset. They said no problem 2-3 days, so a week passes and I ring them up this afternoon. I go through the spiel and the lady says well sir, we have the spreadsheet and your IMEI is not on it. Which either means you have given us the wrong IMEI or your phone is unlocked already, or you have an import.

She asked polity have you tried a different sim card sir? I said off course not, so we go through repeating IMEI's and I said ok, I will try with a different sim card and lo behold. IT really is UNLOCKED.


I am using it with my t mobile business tariff. I can not believe it am I just lucky or has anyone else tried it?

What the hell?? Mine too!

I called Vodafone a few days ago to get this thing unlocked because i plan on using it abroad and gave the lady my IMEI and everything and after the:

"What model phone is it?"
-"It's the vodafone 1615."
"Yes but what brand is it?"
-"err vodafone"
"no sir what BRAND is it?"
-"its brand is vodafone. It's the 1615. By vodafone."
"yes but what BRAAAND is it?? Is it a Palm? A Motorola? A nokia? What does it say on the box???"
"it says VODAFONE 1615! It's a vodafone! V-O-D-A-F-O-N-E!"



...discussion i told her HTC made it but its doesnt say that on the box i just know that. Then she muttered something about 12 days(?) hours(?) Something anyway, that they'll email me with the code. They havent.

Anyway just now i came across by accident on this thread and thought, what the hell cant hurt to try. So i put my Cypriot sim and it worked fine! Calls and everything. How cool is that? I like vodafone a bit better right now...
