Well, the MFG app can be deleted like any other app. So there is that. And I am pretty sure your phone is NOT unlocked for all networks when you put in ##634# and then enter 277634#*#

I would like to ask the OP if he attempted to input the unlocking codes he received from the website, more than 3 times?

I also received codes from a website and after 3 attempts at inputting them at the pin screen, the phone now asks for a PUK code?

I thought this odd.

I put my sim that came with the phone back into it and it did not ask for any other code.

I have now tried sims from 4 other networks, from friends etc, and every time it asks for a puk code.

Any info you can provide would be great. I have gone to hell and back with this phone I plan to make a big tutorial at the end so that nobody else has to go through the same.

There is so much mis-information on the internet about these handsets, its unreal

Cheers

I know that was an issue with older GSM phones due to the Rogers/Fido network code renaming...

Confirmed: The phone is always roaming on Fido. So it's a bit of a hack in that you have to enable data while roaming - just need to be careful to disable data in case you are ACTUALLY roaming.

Thanks!!!
The hint with setting Data-Connection to OFF was the clue.

Works now also with vodafone in Germany!

You can obtain your unlock code in fastgsm.com with your IMEI, and change your APN Settings to your new carrier network..

Can you tether this phone with a mac? And please don't start this fanboy thing...
