Hello. thanks for reading my post/questions.

I called TM to give me the unlock code for my MDA Vario.. about two days later I got the unlock code via e-mail. I've inserted other simcard and it accepted, no problems. Now its a truly world gsm phone I can use while traveling abroad.

Now.. what is all this talk about CID unlock? I read a few post but still lost, there is so much information scattered. I read the wiki site about upgrading to WM6 and I'm still confused..

Do I need to do the CID unlock? what are the pro/cons? What is the next step after sim unlocking.

Thanks again for reading/answering my post.

You don't NEED to CID unlock. Only if you want to flash (upload) new ROMs especially from other than t-Mobile. Go HERE (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=325748) for specific guidance regarding SIM/CID unlocking.

Best Regards,

You won't get a clear answer, maybe just a few posts telling you to go and read yet more scattered information or six 95 page threads.

Nopes ! don't misguide the noobs,All the relevant info,guides and procedures are very appropriately uploaded,posted,upgraded and easily available at "XDA-Wiki",but atleast one must know how to use 'Wiki',if still you don't understand or seek more info,than you can either search the relevant forum or start a new thread,ok
