Ok I exagerated a bit in the title, but...

I bought this HTC 6800 Bell, from a nice guy, unlocked, upgraded, GPS activated, WM6.1. Bell entered my ESN in their system, gave me my MSL unlock code and when I dial ##(MSL)# and hit the talk button, the phone does not get into programming mode at all. I even tried a few HTC ##codes# and none of them succeed to get into programming mode.

Instead, the phone calls the ##code# and somehow gets redirected to a Bell Mobility recorded message telling me to call the activation hotline. Which I finally did. The person could not do anything, so he sent me to a Bell Mobility store, where another very skilled person was unable to do the programming.

What is supposed to happen when you enter your MSL unlock code? Anyone can help me?

I flashed successfuly a few DCD ROMS (3.3.4, 4.1.2), they all worked fine but I still can't activate the phone with my MSL :mad:

Thanks

If you're using DCD's ROMs, make sure you have installed the Bell carrier cab from DCD.

then try ##778# or ##778[dial]

after that it'll ask your for your MSL... should be just 000000
