I see you use the box serial of 32821 (Prodigy) - How do you know this is the right one? I only have one code entry left before it locks forever, so I want to be sure it will work. Also, why the +1 code? As far as I understand, wouldn't it be better to use the +7 which unlocks all 4 things instead of just the one? Thanks.
I have tried four codes so I have one remaining. How do I know which code to use? trebor32's or SpencerFW's?? Could I get a confirmation from someone please. Thanks Also, SpencerFW - how do you know that is the right code as opposed to tebor32's code? Thanks for the help
NoLimit can back me up - it may say nOOb under ones name but I have been in the unlocking business for 2 years. As for trebor32 he uses a online generated calculator which produces incorrect codes 95% of the time. quite frankly I do not give a sht what code you use as your phone is most likely hardlocked anyway. Why do people think unlocking phones is easy?! Most of the members here try codes themselves fuk it up and moan when the right codes are given but do not work due to the many failed attempts tried by themselves. I feel for the true unlockers here as there hard work is always undervalued (especially NoLimit and MCCRASH.) The majority of members here can never be bothered to say a simple thank you. Members just get the unlocking code and fuk off - this is one of many reasons I don't give unlocking codes here. Respect goes out to NoLimit and his crew, peace.
I do indeed back up SpencerFW code for you 1100 but as he mentioned, you have already used others. Depending on the software version, you might have 3 chances which is most likely but some do have 5. I do not know the software numbers in my head as here in the USA the 1100's are for TracFone's which I don't do but yes, the code SpencerFW gave you is correct. If I were going to use a code from a name here that says newb, it would be SpencerFW all day long. Not only do I back up the code given, I back up everything he said. Too many of you download code generators and think you can just put your model number in and click for a code. Doesn't work like that. If that 1100 was from the UK with Virgin, I wouldn't use code 1 or 7 and I wouldn't use 32768 or 32821 for my box code. It all depends where it's from and who it's with and that's what I myself did not know nearly 3 years ago when I started but doing this daily teaches you many things that people like trebor32 and unlockt (same person) do not know. Yes, sometimes we get code errors but that normally comes from someone posting a phone incorrectly. They say their phone is locked to who they want to use or they use the IMEI# off the box and not the one seen by pressing *#06#.... I could go on and on with what I have seen from people but I have learned from it and there are many times, especially with USA phones where all I have to see is the IMEI# and I don't pay attention to who they say the phone is locked to because the IMEI tells me every thing I need to know. Thanks SpencerFW for your input!! Good luck to you Kilroy711 with your 1100 and by the way, I'm showing it to be an 1108, not an 1100
All of my respect goes out to etowah here on this site. He taught me everything I know from day one on a different site. He worked with me until I had the basics down and understood and then gradually he got me into the harder phones and changing box codes. When I felt good about what I knew, I started a website in 2005 and it's all because of the time etowah put in with me to teach me. He is truly the man behind the scenes here and that should be known.
It worked! Thankyou so much to NoLimit and Spencer! As for the comments about those who think unlocking is easy, I completely agree with what you say and I will not grant myself to be anywhere above 'completely noob' when it comes to unlocking. You might feel a bit better that you've stopped another ~$50 from getting into the hands of one of Australia's biggest monopoly's. I'm eternally grateful! Keep up the good work. Karma is floating your way ;-)
