First of all hi guys, being new to this forum I hope that I'm in the right section! Please move the tread if it isn't.
Anyway, one thing I would like to clear up - is there any difference between unlocking and hardware resetting? I've heard that unlocking a nokia 7600 may not allow you to pick up 2G signals as the 3 phones are always looking for 3G signals, therefore a hardware reset is also required...is this right?
I have a Nokia 7600 firmware v4.05 (I think this is the latest firmware) that is on 3 Pay. I would like to put a T-mobile sim into it and be sure that the signal will be ok AFTER everything is done. What is the process from start to finish?
I have heard that problems have arisen with unlocking these phones as they do not unlock with normal code settings used for previous 7600 firmware versions.
I have the opportunity to take it to some market stall and they said they'd do it (unlock it), but I'm not sure if they are aware that it may need a hardware reset. Basically I trust you guys more than him!
Any help would be appreciated, cheers
