XDA ORBIT - General Topics

Hi,
Can anyone help. I have just purchased an XDA Orbit locked to o2 in the Uk. I have searched around and all the sellers want huge money to unlock it. I would prefer to donate to this site. I am in Sydney Australia.
Can anyone help.
Cheers
spodieee

your orbit is unlocked
Dear friend just put another sim card from australia and enjoy the phone. You dont have to pay a single penny to any one. Most probabaly your xda orbit is unlocked, becuase o2 does not lock orbit when u get on contract.
Regards.

same here, ive got o2 orbit on contract w/o simlock. but be aware - it's still CID-locked.

Cheapest way to get a Orbit 2 in germany?

Does anybody know a less expensive way to get an Orbit 2 in Germany?
eBay-Anbieter
If you just throw away the sim-card and do not forget to cancel the contract it will cost you 189€+240€(24x10€ for the Genion S)=429€.
get TC from O2 online shop
And how about O2 online shop? I am newbie in this, but it seems that you can get a phone for 99,99 Euros. Yes, it is said about a contract, but it seems that they will delivery the phone itself for this price. I am writing "it seems", because I have never tired this. Maybe someone did?
And I suppose that you will need to make SIM unlock to use such phone.
fralik,
seems that o2 xda orbit II is not sim locked.

Default HTC Cruis-Polaris -- XDA Orbit 2

You can buy it in the onlineshops in Germany for 499,-- Euro incl. Original TOMTOM 6.32 with Europe Alps Card+Carholder+12V Caradapter. Free an without locks."

only operator thats signed up so far is o2, and theirs is unlocked as well"
contract or not contract
Yes, we can buy orbit II from O2 online shop without a contract for 500 Euros.
But my question is - can we purchase it WITH contract (pay 99 Euros) and then just do not use our contract? I think that I got an answer by myself - NO =(( Although I didn't go through all purchasing steps, but you need to specify you ID, your address, you bank account info. So, I suggest that after purchasing O2 will charge your bank account regardless of wether you are using phone or not.
I don't think that you would be able to get the handset for 99euro and then not use or cancel the contract. As far as I know, at least with some UK operators u have to pay a penalty, which is the full cost of the monthly line rental until the agreed end of the contract.

Hi,
you can buy the Xda orbit2 from O2 online shop or several other distributers with or without contract. It is not simlocked. The cheapest way is to find the cheapest distributer, that sells the Xda orbit2 with a Genion S with handy contract, if you don´t want to use the contract. You can get it for 99 € with Genion L, but you have to pay the monthly basic fee for this contract (so if you don´t use the included call minutes, it´s not the cheapest way).
Best regards

:-D
The cheapest one I found (includes fees for 24 months) is 380,03€. But they don't like it if you throw away the sim cards and don't use them. They say that these offers won't stay if too much people behave like that.
Straputsky
where could u get that offer from?
Hello!
The cheapest way I found in Germany is the following:
ebay-Verkäufer www_logitel_de
When you use the "Telco Eplus Get75call" it will cost you 14,95*24+9=367,8 when you throw away your card.
If you use your 50 free-minutes (calculate only 10cent per minute) it will cost you 367,8-24*5=247,8 theoreticaly
JueLue
You could get it from obocom.de. It's a package of 2 Sims. One "Kombi Comfort", one "Zuhause Web Data"
Orbit 2: 210€
Anschlussgebühr: 50€
Kombi Comfort: 0€ (for the first 24 months)
Zuhause Web Data: 120€ (24x5€)
Versandkosten: 0€
--------------------------
Gesamt: 380€
(Prices are slightly rounded)
@JueLue
Don't forget do add 8,90€ shipping costs

o2 Xda Orbit 2 no longer available in Germany?

Hi all
I've been wanting a Polaris real bad, but I prefer the o2 Xda Orbit 2 edition over the HTC Touch Cruise, so I figured I'd buy one in Germany - but now o2online.de no longer list the phone?!
Does anyone know if they have recalled it, or what has happened? I see a few available on ebay.de and certain retailers - but frankly, I'm a bit worried about it no longer being listed on the official site...
Cheers
I received my Polaris from o2 germany on tuesday
Hello,
I orderd my polaris from o2 germany in late december and received it beginning of this week.

When in O2 UK?

Hi,
I think that after 3 years with HTC Universal(s)(3), it's a time to change my phone!
There is nothing even close to XDA Exec so Raphael is the only alternative...
Does anyone know when I can expect this phone to hit UK market (O2)?
I was told that HTC Diamond will hit O2 by end of this week (retentions agent)- but that might not be the full story. On the plus side he knew about Raphael but didn't know any dates
Many thanks!
Cheers
Chris
I to was wondering the same
O2 Germany said they release the Touch Pro in the week of 15th september.
Any idea what o2 are calling the phone?
In Germany it will be called "o2 Xda diamond pro", guess it will be the same in the UK.
Today i found it at the O2 Homepage. It´s very expensive. https://service.o2online.de/portal?$part=Productcatalog.content.detailView&hardwareId=4510%20070033%2000&commercializationId=NewCustomerWebshopPostpaid&tariffId=O-GEN-H-L
o2 just started selling their version of the diamond "XDA Ignito" http://www.coolsmartphone.com/news4232.html
It's definitely available via o2 customer services as of today in the UK as I phoned up but they want £35 a month for 18 months = £630 minimum term and the touch diamond is £399.99 sim free most places now so I would advise get a sim free one then get a o2 sim only (simplicity) 30 day rolling contract
