Default Sim Unlock

Hi,
Is there a SIM unlock available for the x7510 (T-Mobile Ameo 16gb) yet?

The only mentions that i can find one were posted back in october. I'm assuming the unlock for the x7500 and x7501 don't work (I tried them, and they didn't seem too)

I suggest a few points:
1) Stay FAR away from any such util designed for x7500 or x7501
2) Read the sticky at the top of this forum, ALL OF IT

OT: why have you put my avatar in your forum? I'm Disappointed. Put the original windows mobile logo instead...
Cheers,
Michele.

I have been trying to get that unlocker to work, with no success.

I would appreciate any input on 3 messages beginning at http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?p=5148353 (or search on "SIM unlock Ameo 16GB").

I've given a lot of direct-quote error messages. I hope it helps.


Thank you for your time and attention.

Default Shared woes!

Hi rschwall,
I have been trying this for the last 2 nights with no success. As we have both discovered the Ameo16GBUnlocker file currently available from http://xacsx.de does not have a X7510 (ATHE400) compatible SPL bundled with it and the radio flash doesn't work with the 365 HSPL. By pure coincidence I have followed the same path as you at almost exactly the same time, you weren't trying to de-brand the phone to sell it before XMAS were you? (that was my plan) I am also on a T-Mobile UK Ameo 16GB. I have since reverted the machine to a stock ROM (NEW: WWE (english) 3.29.707 ) linked from Post 2 in this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=441684), and then reverted to the stock SPL in post 1. I tried again with the unlocker and still had no joy, so last night I ordered an unlock code from an external supplier. I have received a code and when I get the opportunity to try it this evening I will let you know if it was successful. I'd rather pay a small amount than waste too much of my time. I like a bit of a technical challenge but I do have a life!

I look forward to being able to give you a solution later, even if it involves paying someone else a token amount. I did not buy it from the suppliers you list. I am wary of buying codes online since I paid for a Nokia N73 unlock code many moons ago only to receive no code but a bland statement that they couldn't provide one but I might like to try a few other things instead, after they had secreted my money to some place well beyond my reach. This time I have used a supplier who at least appear to have a track record and a payment method that I can recall if necessary.

Question I still can't SIM-unlock Ameo 16GB from T-Mobile UK

I also got an unlock code from gadget_international (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...9501439&_rdc=1).

I put in my T-Mobile USA SIM and restarted the Ameo 16GB. When I got to the window labeled SIM Lock, it displayed, "You have tried 23 times, please wait until timeout..."

I gave up waiting 65 hours later. I've got no cell phone while this thing has my SIM card tied up.

I have called T-Mobile USA support. Although their agent gave it a serious try, he figured only the guy I bought the phone from or T-Mobile UK could help.

I have called T-Mobile UK support. Although they were polite, they said that they can't help me unless I have a T-Mobile UK phone number. They were amazed to hear the number 23. They believed the SIM card would be permanently locked at 10 tries. (The SIM card still works fine in my HTC Advantage x7501).

I read the Athena 1.5 Service Manual. The Assembly / Disassembly instructions include several frightening precautions, including recommending that 3 parts be replaced and not reused, but it only calls out 1 of them in enough detail (the power button). I think I'll turn back now.

I'm stuck. Any ideas?

xacsx? Olipro? ANYBODY?

I got HTC Advantage X7510 (T-Mobile AMEO 16GB) which is SIM locked, after boot up it shows "you have tried 15 times, please wait until timeout", I tried with the ROM upgrade still no luck as it's showing the "No Service". The phone is booting properly and all the other things work except call facility.

Device name : HTC_X7510
Windows Mobile 6.1 Professionl
CE OS 5.2.19209 (Build 19209.1.0.2)
ROM version : 3.27.405.3
Radio version: 1.58.00.00
Protocol version : 32.91.7020.20W
ExtROM version : 3.27.405.104
Model No. : ATHE400

I've have successfully done x7510_HSPL365. Boot loader now shows:

ATHE400
IPL-v2.02
ATHE400
SPL-v3.65.Olinex

I also tried with WM6.5.3-23153_128DPI_x7510_6.2_VICO ROM but it also gives "No Service" and now reverted it back to
RUU_Athena_HTC_WWE_3.27.405.3_1.58.00.00_Ship.

Could you please advise and help me to unlock it, your help and advise will
highly be appreciated and surely will make the donation for your work.

Thanks in advance.

Best Regards,
Anshuman

I am on the same boat and seems there is no solution for this problem
