[unlock] Any feedback on omnius ?

---

Hello !

I'm looking for a way to unlock my SE X10i. Apparently, there is no way to do it for free.

I've found, on some forum, people who recommend Omnius. It would cost 17euros to unlock the phone with this software.

Is there someone here who have already tried it ? Does it works ?

Thanks for your feedbacks!

perhaps it would help!

Finally, my phone was already unlock !!

Weird, because french phones are usually locked and you have to ask your provider the code to unlock it (free of charge after 6 months of use).

Fortunately, I tried before test Omnius. I keep the thread open, in case someone tried Omnius and can give some feedbacks.

Remember this requires firmware 2.1 and you will not be able to use any other firmware.

It is not true.

Omnius unlock = permanent unlock.

Once you unlock the phone using Omnius you can upgrade the firmware and the phone remains unlocked. Tested OK.
