Unlock Treo 750

Anyone know how to unlock the treo 750 yet
looking for same...the earlier thread seems to be dancing around the topic but no clear idea if they figured it out or how to do it
Only way at presnet is to contact vodaphone and pay a fee of 15-20 can't remember the correct fee. I have been waiting for a week so far for my unlock code they said it can be anything from 14 days - 28 days.
Yeah i did that today they said i had to put £20.oo credit on my pay as you go phone and wait, however i wasnt convinced it is going to work as she didnt know what the phone was or anything. Did they say how they would contact you or any other info
I will have to wait for 2 weeks before i can use this damn it
I would advise you to go into a vodaphone store pay the £20 over the counter and then the wait begins. They will ask you for a email address and full postal address, The network unlock comes from another department so they are not generated in store but this way you have someone to go back too.
I have push service on my email so as soon as i get it I am going to unlock the phone I called and tonight and they say it shouldn't be too long.
I asked in store first and they said they couldnt do it as "Computer says no" so i called them up, they took my email address and an alternative number and told me to add £20.00 credit to my pay as you go number so they can take payment, i will wait and see if the payment is taken then chase them, i want the phone for my work tmobile account as i have web n walk
Same here I can wait till I get my unlock code I really like the form factor of the treo to my TyTN. I take it you took the Treo out on pay as you go then? I think the in store price was £400 when I last looked.
Yeah i picked it up for £380.oo in store
How are you guys finding it compared to the TyTN?
Well just a heads up, i emailed this company today and they say they can unlock a Treo 750V so i have sent them my imei no and should have an unlock code in 24-48 hrs it costs £25.00 but its better than waiting 2-3 weeks that vodafone are stating minimum
I will give you an update when i get the code

I just had a word with a vodaphone sales guy and they said the reason why there is 2-3 weeks wait, They don't want there customers leaving so you have to seee out the contract period. 14 days you can take the phone back and cancle the contract.
Keep me updated as I may be getting a spare treo as a second phone and giving my TyTN to my brother.
Nice find chrissyboy6969
£405 all in all for a treo 750 sim free isn't bad at all.
Will pay $400 to have treo 750 unlocked...currently locked to vodafone...
@sizzlerecords
you owe me 400 $... check here: http://www.imei-check.co.uk/p750unlock.php
cheers, lutz
Googling "Treo 750 unlock" i also found http://www.gsmliberty.net/shop/palm-treo-750-unlock-p-1283.html
Can i get 400$ too ?
Any one know of a free solution ? (Can't promise 400$ )
I saw a flash tutorial on unlocking treo 750
at www.fasttutorial.com, I believe it includes all the treo.
I has just unlocked my treo 750v locked to 3G networks with this website :
http://www.dudoanketqua.com/unlock/unlock_treo-750v.php
I bought the unlock instructions ( only 19.99$ ) , provide them my Imei number and they give me a key file ( file *.unl )
I use a data cable and unlock it using a software they provided and this key file within 5 minutes . it worked great now
You can also buy it from ebay
http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-1...1&mpre=http://search.ebay.com/unlock+treo+750
I'm looking for some one can provide me a English Rom . my treo is in Frence now. If you got it. please send me a PM. Thanks
If you wanna have this key file to reasearch for a free unlocking method for people, contact me and i'll email you. Notes that in the program said thay" each imei have a difference key file ..." so it think it will not works with your phone .
Did you try an other sim instead of looking for unlocking your treo 750?
Anyway, I did and was happy to see an Orange simcard just was working fine!
There's no lock on my Vodafone Treo 750!
I rang vodafone and asked for a unlock code and they gave it to me free of charge! Now fully unlocked to all networks.

I Have also used this service here: http://www.nextgenserver.com/treo750v_treo_750v_unlocking.htm
They are the developers of the original treo 650 remote unlock.

Cingular Palm Treo 750 for $99 w/Activation

Noticed this on Amazon. Yeah, it needs to be activated, but if you're planning on activating anyway I think this might be the best deal out there.
http://www.amazon.com/palm-Treo-750..._bbs_1/102-2355818-0075367?ie=UTF8&s=wireless
Amen brother, just got mine from Amazon yesterday and switched to Cingular from T-mobile for the 3G. It is legit and this is the best deal I've ever got.....

Just Sold My HTC

Hey guys, I jsut sold my HTC P4359 Today, and now I need a new phone
I definitely want to upgrade, but I live in USA and everyone knows we're hella slow with phones
I just want to know whats the best place to buy HTC/O2's ect in the US? I sorta like the "Mogul" but I'm on a GSM network with simchips
Thanks,
P.S. please let me know suggestions for my nexy phone abt 400-500 to spend
Well, the closest thing to the Mogul in that price range for GSM networks would be the ATT 8525. But, if you were to switch to ATT, you could get a new 8925 when it's released in the near future for about $500.
Well, I don't really like the TyTN. Plus I wouldn't want to get into a cntract with cingular, as i'm pretty content with T-Mobile I'm not opposed from buying overseas and having it shipped here either.
Or does anyone have their used phone or something? Nothing too used, no scratches ect.
I'm loving my UbiQuiO 503g.
520 mhz processor
U.S 3G
WM6 Professional
People were having some issues but they released a new Rom and Radio and mine is working perfectly now.

here is the link for Bell: http://bell.ca/shopping/en_CA_ON.HTC-Touch-Pro/67315.details
This is actually a good news, since I can get a good deal with them. But bad deal, because in a few months everyone will have it. This give me more reason to get the Fuze instead.
So it's the Touch Pro that they have, not the Fuze... so no 3G? and how come I don't see the front camera?
bell and telus don't support vid calling. im pretty sure neither does sprint or AT&T so all in all there won't be much difference between the Fuze and the "bellus" touch pro. and yes i will miss the exclusivity of having a touch pro/fuze.
Damn Suzan this is a nice phone!!!
Does anyone know if when I get this phone whether my $20 funbundle (the unlimitted internet, streaming, blah blah) will transfer over to the pro or is it a whole new ballgame?

Not only that, seems the back cover is not the same cause when looking to my TP, on the pic it looks smaller and the corners are round.
Noticed that the front "wheel" button has some relief while the classic one doesn't.
Telus one seems to be exactly the same. Found that link : http://www.telusmobility.com/qc/pcs/handset_htc_t7279.shtml

Have the store order you one. You don't have to wait for them to get a shipment.
You have more patience than me. I had mine overnighted and got it at 8:30am the day after it came out. And THAT was too long to wait!
The manager at the Verizon store in my town said they weren't getting any and the only way to get it was special order or online order.
Wanna bet they start stocking them after Oct 3rd???? That's when the $100 rebate ends, and the price goes up to $299.
My contract ended and Oct 2nd I'm ordering one so I can be as close to the 6.5 Rom update as I can, and that will give me 30 dys to review new phones. Kind of bummed I won't get to consider Diamond 2 (pocketnow.com just posted won't come to any other US vendor other than AT&T - I'm sticking with Verizon) so it looks like it's TP2 or Omni 2 for me.
Diamond 2 is coming out on Verizon, it's known as the Whitestone. http://www.engadget.com/2009/08/07/verizons-htc-whitestone-leaks-out-along-with-the-htc-mega-and/

I don't mean to be argumentative, but those websites are wrong more than they are right, especially with release dates. Hopefully it is coming next month though as that would be within my 30 days and I could see which one I like better.
The release dates for all Verizon phones leaked out, up to 1st Q of 2010. No Whitestone/other devices from HTC listed.
My local Verizon (corporate) Store is large in comparison to most in the state, and they claim that they don't stock HTC devices, except the Ozone.. in fact, when I got my TP2 last Friday I went to the store looking for a universal pouch and three techs. were amazed to see the TP2 in person lol. I guess they haven't trained on the TP2 yet here.
Hopefully they stock it in the near future, I like getting my cases from that store because of the warranty.

Now that you mention it, you're right! I haven't seen a TP1 at the Verizon kiost or the store ever since its release. Havn't see ANY HTC devices for that matter...weird.

Lol, went to my local Verizon store earlier today and the same thing happened. I walked in and asked if they had any accessories for my phone as i showed it to him. He immediately yanked it out of my hand and then asked, "Can I see that for a minute" as he ran, literally, and showed it to every other Verizon employee in the store including his manager. There were like 6 or 7 other people in the store that all noticed and then they all started asking me and the Verizon employee's about the phone, I felt pretty special They told me at the store they weren't gonna get any in, only internet orders or special order.
Is anybody in Cali and able to confirm whether stores got any?
Headed that way for the weekend, so would like to grab one in person.
Seems we are all getting the same reaction from the Verizon employees when we walk into the store. Was also looking for a universal case to tide me over. It was as if time stood still - little work was done for anyone else in the store for the next 5-10 minutes.
Other news: Have to replace mine due to the screen being scratched out of the box. Corp rep said they were out of stock for a replacement! Will know more tomorrow.
I have called around in my area (Phoenix) and have found some stores have them, some don't. None have them on display and none have accessories.
Still not in our Verizon or Sprints. Looked up on T-Mobile website for a corporate owned location (not reseller) and went on down. They have working TP2s. The resellers have dummy versions for size and weight comparisons.
The T-Mobile version battery door did have a memory card door (though hard to open) and I thought I saw a reset button! Couldn't swear to it. I may look into it and see if one of their backs fit the Verizon and see if they can be bought reasonably.
I won't get my TP2 for another week though. Kind of nice watching the forum and letting others who have time get all the bugs out. I wonder if all the clean ups and hacks will start all over again for WinMo 6.5. I wish they'd start new forums for TP2 GSM/CDMA version 6.1, 6.5, and custom cooked ROMs! very dificult to follow all the versions in one thread when they go 24 pages.
Update: well best plans of mice and men... PocketNow posted "OUT OF STOCK" for TP2 at Verizon. Sure enough went on line and entered an upgrade order and would not let me submit order during rebate period as it was "out of stock." Couldn't even put in basket to be fullfilled when arrives. Called Verizon, switched me around to different sales regions and what did I find? IN STOCK in California! Mine is now on the way to FL. Oh well, I get a great phone aweek early than expected.
Oh they BETTER NOT BE out of stock this Saturday! O_O I don't care if they have to steal it from a third world country, I WANT ONE! :'(

I too have been going through the same ordeal. I added a line to my wifes plan. From being told by many verizon reps that the TP2 will not be avaliable untill early next year I settled on the TP1. That was on 9/10/09, well, lo and behold, the TP2 hit Net sales on the 11th. So i went back to the store on the 20th in the hopes of getting a TP2 of my own. No dice. They couldnt even order me one from any of the options that they had. So, we went ahead and returned the TP1 and reactivated my wifes old lg env in the meantime so i could go home and place the net order. Well, all went fine and dandy and I was even able to order the unit for $149.99 w/no mail in rebates. But, two hours later i received a wonderful cancellation email from verizon due to lack of inventory. Slightly irritating, but understandable. Now, going on 4 days later, everything has reset on the account except for my ability to order via the website. After spending hours on the phone with just about every dept in verizon and being told that the phone is going to cost me anywhere from $250+ and still have to pay the restocking fee from returning the TP1 still no luck. I finally did talk with a phone sales rep that was the most helpful of anyone i have spoken with to date. He promised that as soon as he gets any word about the availability of the TP2 he will personally call me and have the order set to go asap. The only issue he said i might have is for some reason the original order that was canceled is not fully showing up in his system, but there is a reference to it in the account. According to him, when it becomes available again he will call me and if it still doesn't show the canceled order that i will be able to send him the email and they will fully honor it. We will see...
Sorry for the long rant, just had to get it off my chest. Its been a fairly irritating past week of dealing with VZW trying to get them to get their stuff straight.
Hopefully i will have a new TP2 in the next handful of days.
I went into my store on the 19th and he said they don't expect to ever get them, only direct fulfillment. So I ordered it online when I got home and it arrived the 22nd.
After 9 months of FRU'ing Touch Pro's, the guy at the Verizon store informed me that they finally had TP2's online as a possible Multi-FRU upgrade.
After more than a week of daily calls to Verizon and finally getting mine (after paying the 2 year contract price as a discount instead of receiving the multi FRU), I can say the following with relative certainty.
1. They don't anticipate displays in-store before the start of 2010. 2 local store managers claimed they have already requested them, and that Corporate was stalling the launch (much the same as the TP.)
2. If you order over the phone and complain enough about your existing phone, you can get it for the new every 2 price, pretty much regardless of your current status. Keep in mind, it will reset your next upgrade date.
