Sim Free N70/N80

I'm thinking of getting a N70 and wanted to know if anyone has a sim free one.
I've read that the ones on the Orange network have been having problems and wondered if sim free one's have the same problems or not.
Also which firmware version should I be looking for, as I don't know if it is different on a sim free version than the Orange network version.
Lastly, I know that the N80 is not available yet, but do you think it would be a better idea getting sim free one, considering all the problems the latest phones are having with the networks playing with the software.
Many thanks.

Hi everyone.
The Nokia software updater, and Nokia Service engineers will only apply firmware that is authorised by your network provider. If your network provider has not approved an update, then we can only advise that you wait till they do or contact them for details of when they will approve the new firmware. Unfortunately this is part of your contractual agreement with your network, that you use the supplied handset as it has come. Nokia can not make change to a Network handset with out the approval of the Network it self.
This topic has been discussed many times and a simple search will point out that this is the case. This has always been the case.

Firmware Versions and networks and / sim free...

As has been stated elsewhere ad nuaseum...
There are various forms of firmware avilable for the phones out there.
Can we start a post that states the phone, whether networked or sim free, the country and the version of firmware.
In this way we ALL know what is the most upto date version for our handsets, networks and countries etc
NOTE to moderators!
Can we ensure the the format and content of subsequent posts is kept to the following example (please) : -
N95
Vodafone UK
V 10.0.0.018
15-03-07
RM-159
Nokia N95 (41.01)
TIA

If it isn't fun you are doing it wrong
N95, N80, N73, P990, P910, P900, 6230i, K750i, 8210

Come on people, information is the key to knowledge and power.
If we know what is and is not availble by network we can exert pressure on the networks who have NOT released their B*st*rd*s*d versions of firmware.
We all benefit and we have the advantage of knowing that it availble in HK or Dubai but not here etc
Knowledge is TRUE POWER!

Bought iPhone as "SIM-Free", but it not work with my local SIM card

I have bought iPhone Serial No: 82108W75A4T in Canada as "SIM-Free", but it not work with my local SIM (Orange in Israel) card. Where to check: it is or not Factory Unlocked or have any hardware/software problems or have carrier ("adhered" any phone company)

In the local Orange: They tried with them SIM, the same negative result.
I have addressed to Canadien phone wireless carriers.
From some [Rogers'] has already received the answer:
... have checked our system and did not find your iPhone listed... Please contact Apple...

Can I use more than one SIM card in my iPhone if I buy it SIM free?

Sim free is not enough, you can use different sim if it's unlock.

Apple can do nothing. As Tim said, only the carrier to whom the iPhone is locked can authorize unlocking. You must contact that carrier.

If I buy a Sim free iPhone in the UK will I be abel to use it on PAYG in Australia?

If I buy a Sim free iPhone in the UK will I be abel to use it on PAYG in Australia? Or will in need jailbreaking? And what does this even mean?!
Also, I'll still have a UK SIM (vodafone) that I'll want to check from time to time - will this work?
thanks

The iPhone4 and 4S use a microsim about half the size of the normal sim
You would have to get replacements for your old sims to use a iPhone4/4S
and no unlocked is unlocked will work anywhere with a GSM sim
people use jailbreaking to get round not having an unlocked iPhone
Go to an UK Apple Store
you can reserve the night before online so you don't have a wasted journey
http://www.apple.com/uk/retail/iphone/
UK Apple stores only sell unlocked iPhones
They will sell you one with a contract but you will have to go through a contract sign up process etc etc so there is no scope for error

Hello! The question is this. In London, took the Iphone 5 as sim free, flew to Moscow put Simcoe, and he writes me that is locked to the operator O2. Can anyone encountered this problem? What to do? How to remove the Unlock?

<Edited by Host>

Look at your receipt. Does it say unlocked? It is possible to purchase both locked "sim free" and unlocked iPhones from Apple.
ONLY the carrier an iPhone is locked to can legitimately unlock it.
IF your receipt says that it was supposed to be unlocked, and it is not, call AppleCare. They should be able to straighten it out.

My 3gs battery is tripping out since i got it sim free is there any way to solve this problem?

Hi is there any one who has a clue what to do. Iv give my Iphone 3gs to my girlfriend, she's like wow thats great and loving the whole apple experience, then BOOM FAIL two months in after getting the phone sim free (Jailbroken) by my provider the thing keeps dying and tripping out the screen trips and she has to wait a couple of minutes for it to be turned on.1 I look like a fail and 2 I feel a tit as i said its the best phone i'v ever had apart from my 4s. Any suggestions any one or answers to solve this problem?

You jailbroke it. You've forfeited your right to support from Apple and on these forums. More than likely, the jailbreak is what caused the problem in the first place.
Sorry. You're on your own.

Sim free Z10 purchase from UK to be used in Pakistan

Hello I am from Pakistan and am currently in UK. I want to buy a Z10 from here which i will use back home. Some questions please. 1. Can i use the sim free phone with my mobile operator in pakistan, without a hassle. Last thing i want is I buy the phone, and it doesnt work back home 2. Carphone warehouse is providing a 2 year warranty. Is this an international warranty? There is no blackberry shop in Pakistan but there are in Dubai. If required, will the Dubai shops recognize this warranty? 3. A bit on the technical aspect... With the OS 10.2, has the Z10 able to bury most, if not all of the criticisms that it received when it first launched last year? Thank you in advance for your help. Regards
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Blackberry Z10 are global ready handsets, u can use it easily. Firsy of all go to setting and then tap to security option again tap in sim card. See if device network is not locked to spcific carrier thhen it must be unlocked. And unlocked handsets are ready to use anywhere including pakistan. But the warranty remains. Only in UK.

Sims free play.. purchase not received!

I purchased 500 LP for sims free play and never received them! The purchase went through, I contacted them and never received an email... I want my money back or the 500 LP's.

If you haven't received the item, then have you tried what it says on the developer's FAQ on their website : https://firemonkeys.zendesk.com/entries/22269585-Online-Store-In-App-Purchases ?
If that doesn't work then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com

If I buy a sim free phone here and take it to the Ukraine, can I get a local sim card and the phone still work properly, while in the Ukraine?

If I buy a sim free phone here and take it to the Ukraine with me, can I get a card there in the Ukraine to use the phone with. If that is possible, when I return to the states can I get an AT & T sim card and the same phone work in the states? Thanks in advance for your help.

If you buy an unlocked phone, it will work on any compatible GSM network anywhere in the world. If you buy an unlocked phone in the US, it will not work on LTE networks outside of North America. The warranty is also only valid in the country where the phone was originally sold.

Problem with sim-free

dear Sir/Madam,
I have recently bought iPhone 4s in the shop "Handy" in the Republic of Bulgary, in the city Burgas, in the "Burgs Plaza" complex. I have bought this phone for full sum, and it is modified by "M-Tel" company. This phone was bought without any contract and SIM-card.
I have tried to contact to "M-Tel" and asked them for a help, but there was no result. "Handy" also could not unlock my phone, because the operator is "M-Tel".
да, там очепятка
When I bought this mobile, the costumer said that there would not be any problems with changing operator.
I am in Russia at this moment and I want to get Russian operator.
The IMEI of mobile is 013006007871306
I will be very grateful to you if you help me with my problem.
Yours sinserely, Ilya Zhmyhov

Only the operator to which the iPhone is locked can unlock it - nobody else (including Apple). M-Tel do offer iPhone unlocking. You will have to contact them again. http://www.mtel.bg/
If you were sold the phone as "unlocked / SIM-free" but actually were given a "locked" handset, you will need to return it to the retailer you purchased from.

If you are asking how to remove the carrier lock, only the carrier it is locked to can remove that. Contact them.
