Nokia BB5 unlocking

Postby Muad_dib77 » Fri Jun 16, 2006 4:30 pm

Hi Guys,

Does anybody know anyone who unlocks Nokia BB5 phones?

Specifically a 6680 - it's locked to the UK3 network, but I'm wanting to use it on the Irish3 network.

I've unlocked a few Nokis phones using online calculators...

:lol:

I've unlocked a phone or two using some of the websites off google, cost something like 6 or 7 euro I think. Don't remember which one I used though...

Only 3g Network can unlock your 6680 at the moment you can try calling them for unlock code I think it cost £15.

Thanks - I tried.. they wouldn't touch it..

Dammit..

Apparently Nokia 6680 & 6630 are both BB5 phones. So if you're offered one of these locked to the 3UK network - don't buy it... They're difficult if not impossible to unlock...

Anybody want to buy a 6680 locked to 3UK? I'll take €115 Including postage to the UK..

Got the pictures on the work account:

Few marks - but as you can see nothing serious..
Comes with new headset, a charger & manuals..no battery included...

Oh yeah you can get this phone cheaper but you'd have to tie yourself to a contract - and that generally sucks.

I'd wait until it's running again before giving it any connotations... :D

In the words of Eric Cartman "you're breaking my balls here"...

Howabout an even hundred?

(remember that includes Courier delivery to your place!*)
