Hello from Siberia! I bought 2 phones nokias 6680 and n73. Both are locked(vodafon). As far as I understood they are BB5 models and cannot be unlocked remotely(can they?). Here in Russia everyone says that it is impossible to unlock them unless u change their flash memory(or something) therefore there must be some equipment that deals with flash memory. Can u please advise me some equipment? That would be very helpful. Thank you!

Hello I have recently purchased a Nokia 6555 which is locked to Fido. I am not too upset about it being locked to Fido but I am extremely upset that they have crippled the mp3 ringtone capabilities to force us to purchase ringtones from them at ridiculously outrageous prices.

1st I would like to know if getting this phone unlocked will also unlock this mp3 ringtone crippling?

2nd I have read on this forum that this phone cannot be unlocked via code because it is "BB5". I have also read (above) that there is a fairly expensive solution in the JAF-Flasher option. I had read on other sites that it is also possible using software running on a PC (Diego?) and an appropriate USB cable. Is this possible?

I have managed to find a copy of Diego V3.08 and I have a USB cable on the way. (I also currently connect the phone to my computer via bluetooth for transferring files etc...)

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you.
