How do I unlock a Samsung i780? - General Questions and Answers

I have a i780 locked to Orange and I would like to put a Vodaphone sim in it. How do I unlock it without using a paid service, with a bit of software maybe?

Impossible.

Thank you.
How would I remove all the Orange'ness and install a standard Samsung "image".

posible
i have i 780 with simlock on PLAY (polish operator id 26006) and using a card from another operator (heyah id 26002).
I buy on polish portal www.allegro.pl TURBO SIM - it works very well

Is much more easy than you can immagine http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=465597

Action Lock Question?

Hi I am thinking of upgrading my xda2s to the 'XDA DEVELOPERS EDITION', does any one know if the absence of the Action Lock on the Rom would mean that if my xda was lost or stolen that my provider would not be able to perform a phone block, (not to be confused with sim block or standard network providor unlocking) The phone block lock actually locks the device and can only be unlocked by the provider, not a shop like a standard unlock code.
Any suggestions on this as I really like the look of the Special Edition Rom from here.
Cheers

Darren, Oxford.
the special edition is ONLY for xda1 devices
Cheers, did not realise it was for the xda1 only,
Any one know if there are are any better Roms available and where from.
If I were to get a similar Rom for the Xda2 what would be the answer to the original question?
cooking roms went away with xda1's because for the other devices
people can unlock their extented rom and put in the programs they want autoinstalled after a hardreset
so any newer rom will do
and you can put in the programs in the extented rom you like or stick with the ones it have default
the latest official english rom is 1.75
and you can find it on the ftp
how to get to the ftp you can
get directions in the wiki pages
which you can find in the upper left cornor of this page

HTC S710 - new user questions

Hello S710 experts,
I have been browsing this forum for a while but haven't really found any conclusive answers to a couple of important questions I have.. I am ready to buy an S710 but need to find out the following:
I have a Blackberry plan on T-Mobile Czech Republic and everything works fine with my 8700 handset (connected to BES)..
1) if I buy an unlocked S710 how can I find and set the internet connection settings on the device? With my 8700 (which was formerly a UK Vodafone device) I just inserted the SIM and it made an EDGE connection and it was good to go. Is it that simple with the S710 or is there more to it?? Unfortunately I cannot speak a word of Czech so the local T-Mobile site is not much use!
2) I know it will be unsupported but how likely am I to be successful with BB Connect with this device/network? I have seen links to download the BB client for the S710 but has anyone managed to get it working with a setup similar to mine?
3) What about wireless syncronisation of BB calendar and contacts? This is a must for me - does it work?
Am looking forward to comments on the above and hope I can go ahead and purchase!! (now I need to find a retailer who will ship to the CR!)

[Q] Removing Carrier Firmware

Hi,
I need help.
Can anyone please offer me their time/experience to solve this problem and answer these questions? I would greatly appreciate it.
Before posting I searched the forum but could not find a solution. I read
"How to Change carrier specific (Videotron) firmware to original Google firmware?" and other threads but I don't think any apply to my situation.
I live in Japan but don't speak a word of this language and wish to retain original English setup.
My Jap carrier, Softbank, offers huge discounts to buy HTC Desire HD but their phone has Softbank Firmware.
I would like to retain HTC SENSE environment which is present on the phone:
1.
Delete the present keyboard - this one has the option to switch between kanji & normal - and install a normal SENSE English Keyboard
2.
Use swipe in English (and possibly in Italian)
3.
Update to the latest SENSE firmware every time it comes out
4.
Unlock the phone (it's Sim locked) to be able to use other carrier's sim
5.
Access Internet with Softbank's flat rate data access (if I use NON Softbank phones, for some reason, I am charged astronomical fees)
6.
Wipe off all the japanese crap (apps & settings) from the phone.
Can anyone help me with any or all my issues? Please? May I also ask someone to explain to me what's the difference between rooting and flashing?
Thanks!

[Q] Anyone has Bell Canada MobileOperator Reg Value?

Anyone could tell me what's Bell Canada's value for the following registry key:
HKLM\System\Platform\DeviceTargetingInfo\MobileOperator
Thanks ahead of time,
Pat
Uhm, I tried but in system it says I can't access itor info unavail. I'm not sure why , I got my HTC hd7 from bell, I am sure i unlocked it from carrier, I also have it developer unlocked. I've got registry editor on it, touchxperience, and loads of other apps. I've been able to anything else I've wantebutnot access the one folder.
Sent from my T9295 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
@nalgrim:
There is an easy solution for your problem.
just go into the last folder you can access and create a new one inside it with the next name in the string.
afterwards you have access to the folder which has been there before but just not visible.
I hope that helps you so that you can help bizpat72, because I can't find the list with carrier IDs anymore (there should actually be one somewhere within the forum)
I remembered the post about NoDo update with the trick of unbranding phone had the list. Rafael Rivera has that list, so you might contact him in this forum or outside. Or you can try to guess the string, typically it contain 5 letter as AAA-BB, which AAA stands for the abbreviation of the operator and BB stands for the operator's country. My guess is BEL-CA.
here:

ROG-CA
or
LUS-CA
?? those are the only two CA on the list

[Q] Menu for Dual Sim adapter

Hi,
I have a Dual Sim adapter from MagicSim in my HD2 on WP7. Up to now I can switch between Sim cards only with "007" mode.
Now I have read about development of STK for WP7:
"SIM Applications (STK) for hTC windows phones 7 by ansar"
Will this offer to switch between Sims with a real menu like in WM6.5 or Android?
greetings
rupi99
So far as I know, nobody has actually gotten STK working on WP7. It's included with every phone (I don't know if there's anything different about Ansar's version, but I wouldn't be surprised to learn that there isn't) but if you figure out how to install it (not *that* hard) it doesn't seem to be a usable app.
