Hello,

I got my alcatel 302 unlocked (it was locked to Vodaphone UK). Before unlocking it was working fine but after unlocking its signal strength has almost vanished. It accepts sims from various operators but it hardly manage to find the operator (barely goes to single bar). I have tested it with Vodaphone, Virgin, Orange and T-mobile sims but in all cases the result is same.

An interesting thing is that during starting it shows Virgin logo (even when there is no sim).

Any clue as to how to tackle this problem?

Thanks.

Did you unlock it yourself with the NokiaFree progam?
Can you explain how to unlock Alcatel 300. I cannot follow the NokiaFree help dialog, Select Menu "Operator" etc.
Am I just stupid? (rhetorical) :-?
Sorry but I cannot answer your problem

No. It is behaving same with old and new sims (from various UK service providers). By old I mean the sim that I used satisfactorily before unlocking the phone. I am not sure if this what you mean by "old"
