N70 unlocking codes - more than five failures

Dear All,
I started a new contract with Orange last december with a Nokia N70 as handset. Unfortunately only three months into the contact I had to relocated abroad due to a family member being terminally ill. No need to say that my foreing sim card was not working on my Orange N70. As you can imagine I am still paying the hefty monthly bill without using neither the free minutes available nor the handset as it is blocked. A couple of weeks ago out of frustration I bought some unlocking code generator software from the web. Needless to say I was not aware that after 5 failing attempts the handset cannot be unblocked by codes any more and I went through all my 5 chances with no luck (claimed success rate of the software 60% - it was not my case). I understood that there was a problem only when after paying £20 to Orange for an unlocking code that did not work either. The only solution that Orange can offer at this stage is for me to ship the handset to them and let them do the job. To be honest sending my handset across Europe is the last thing I want to do. I can see lots of things that can go wrong and I'am sure they will. Anyone has any advice or similar experiences? Thank you

to be honest, just send it to them.
there is loads of software going on ebay that state they can unlock series 60 phones, they are all fakes - you just cannot do it at home.
the only people who can do this are the network. that information is all over these boards, in fact if you google search for it, this board turns up in the results.
if it is a problem, then it is your own fault. you have to resign yourself to it, send it away.

  • How do i find which Apple ID is associated with music in my iTunes? When I sync with my iPad and iPhone it tells me I have music, apps etc from more than five IDs. I am asked for PW for a number of now extinct accounts.

    Go to Settings/icloud. The Apple ID at the top of the screen is the only one you need to be concerned about. That one MUST be a working ID, and you must know the password for it, or you will be unable to use the phone if it ever crashes, you want to update it, or you want to sell it.

  • Can I authorize more than five computers on one iTunes account?

    Can I authorize more than five computers on one iTunes account?  I have several PC's being used as HTPC's and I'd like to use iTunes on all of them.  My three iPhones and three PC's have taken up all of my authorizations.  If I need to create a second iTunes account, can it be linked to my existing account?

    Todd, some suggested reading, none of which looks to me as requiring authorization as an iTunes device for Apple TV:

  • How can I add more than five URLs to the address bar drop down list?

    How many URLs can the Awesome Bar hold in the drop down list? I was showing five, but when I tried to add a sixth by cutting and pasting the URL in the address bar and clicking "Enter", it did not show up. Can the Awesome Bar hold more than five?

    It is possible that you have an extension that sets this value to a lower setting than the current default of 12.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.
    *Switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window

  • Is there any way to get rid of this stupid feature in iTunes for Windows? You've subscribed to a podcast but have more than five unplayed episodes. iTunes will stop automatically downloading newer episodes.

    s there any way to get rid of this stupid feature in iTunes for Windows?
    You've subscribed to a podcast but have more than five unplayed episodes. iTunes will stop automatically downloading newer episodes. You may get the following message: 
    iTunes has stopped updating this podcast because you have not listened to any episodes recently. Would you like to resume updating this podcast?
    You can click Yes to continue downloading additional episodes. Or you can just listen to any part of any episode and a new episode will download at the next update.

    I believe that feature was added in order to reduce wasted costs to the Podcaster.
    Podcasts incur costs - that have to be paid for, by someone. That cost will be the cost of hosting the Podcast on a server somewhere and more crucially (with regard to your point), the cost of the Podcast being downloaded to your computer. Every download costs the Podcaster money (typically, charged by bytes downloaded).
    If that Podcaster pays for the whole thing personally, obviously they want to keep down any unnecessary cost to themselves. If the Podcaster is earning money for his or her Podcast (typically from advertising within the programme) then obviously, the advertiser only wants to pay for advertisements heard by listeners. So a download, not heard by the downloader, is waste of the Podcaster's money or no payment from the advertiser.
    My own experience is that I only have to resume downloading once per programme. I'm usually several episodes behind on two different Podcasts that I follow, but I do not recall having to repeat the resume Podcast after that first time.

  • Using SwingWorker more than five times

    Hi there,
    I'm having a problem with the SwingWorker.
    A SwingWorker class is called for loading a large file into the database. After I have loaded five files to the database, the sixth loading isn't working and the GUI isn't responsing anymore. Is there a maximum number of SwingWorker Threads that can be used at a time?
    Everything else works fine, and sometimes I can even load more than five files, if the loadings are long enough after each other.
    Can anybody help?

    dbHighly probably--about 5 orphaned connections seems to be where things have gone bonkers for me in various languages in the past--C, C++, VB, C#, Pascal, Basic... argh! The mind dizzies.

  • What if i have more than five computers to authorize itunes accoutn?, what if i have more than five computers to authorize itunes account?

    itunes only allows me to authorize five computers.  but what if i've used more than five computers in my lifetime with my itunes account?

    Well, what i was tyring to do was re-download my purchased items. and the message I get is....
    You have already authorized five computers.
    you can still make purchases on this computer, but you will need to transfer them to an authorized machine or device to play them.  if you wish to play purchases on this computer, you will need to first deauthorize a currently authorized computer.
    BUY or CANCEL.
    the thing is...as i mentioned before, i already deauthorized all the other computers. so i don't get why it is making me buy it again.

  • "You cannot authorize more than five computers"

    I am unable to play any of my music that I have bought from iTunes music store because when I try to play my music on my new computer it says "You cannot authorize more than five computers". In fact, I only have four computers using my iTunes music account. Any suggestions?

    hmmmm. perhaps check to see if you've ended up with multiple authorisations on one of those computers:
    One computer using multiple iTunes Music Store authorizations

  • HT1420 Authorizing More than Five Computers

    Why can't use authorize more than five computers? It is driving me crazy!

    Because that is the limit that Apple have decided on, if you want to know why then you'll need to try asking them (and iPads, iPhones and iPods aren't included in the 5 computer limit).

  • Iwork numbers 09 - Freezing more than five columns

    I have previously been using excel for mac - I now have numbers and have successfully frozen headers. I also want to freeze columns to correspond with my excel spreadsheets. It looks as if I can only freeze five columns but I do not want to swap columns about as I send this over to my accountant and he wants the same format. Can I freeze more than five columns?

    More bad news:
    You will find that using header columns will make Numbers come to a crawl. In fact, I've found that I have to minimize the use of both header columns and header rows, although less so with head rows.

  • Update unsuccessful...still stuck in unlocking for more than an hour.

    How do I authorize more than five accounts? I have an AppleTV2, two iPhones, MacPro, and iPad2. What must I do to include my MacBook?

    You can have up to 5 computers authorized with the same iTunes account.
    An iPod, iPhone, and iPad don't count against this and neither does an Apple TV.

  • TS1292 How come it doesn't show the amount of money there is s gift card?  I tried putting in the code more than once, but all it says is that the card has already benn redeemed?

    How come it doesn't show how much money there is left in my iTunes gift card?  I have tried putting in the code more than once, but all my tablet says is that the card has already been redeemed.

    I haven't got access to the server right now (so I can't provide the complete details), but something like 6-700 GB (which is more than it shows in the client time machine windows, but less than what is true (which was around 1,5 TB))
