I CAN UNLOCK 95% OF PHONES SO IF YOU HAVE ONE THAT FALLS INTO THE 95% BRACKET LET ME KNOW I MAY BE ABLE TO CALCULATE A CODE FOR FORUM MEMBERS FREE.:p

what if you found a phone at a bus stop and its been blocked by the network provider can you unblock this:innocent:

 

No. Once the IMEI has been blacklisted then it's useless. It won't latch onto to any network. There is no way you'll get a new IMEI as they're only available from the:

 

a) The operator

b) The vendor of the phone.

 

Bin it. The phone is worthless.

No. The blacklist is a central D-base - which every operator updates their AC (Authentication centre) from.

 

Besides, the operator (if they can be bothered) can will also be able to tell:

 

a) When

b) Where (The current cell you're in)

 

When you tried to latch a stolen phone on the network ;)

That is possible, judging by how operators run their networks in India. I assumed you meant a local or European operator.

apparently there are some ruthless traders that embark upon this but we dont entertain any notion of serial number or imei changing as it is a crimianl offence up to five years in prison so £100 or £200 or even £300 to do would not be worth the risk so we dont waste any time looking into it.

hand it into your local police station somebody on low income could have lost it and looks after the elderly like my sister that lost hers on a bus.

in fact there are developers that have written programs to edit the serial of the phone no one in uk writes such software it is written in poland estonia and other eastern states there are benefits to them for doing this is criminals want the software often it is protected via dongles connected to parrell port or usb it is a crime recognised in the uk and punishable by 5 years in prison so is it worth it i say no so have never developed any software to do this in the 15 years i have written gsm softeware.

in fact yes a phone blacklisted in uk for all uk networks will work abroad say movistar in spain because they havent been told to block it because they are not in uk it will work on there network.

hence ebay was used to sell 2 million pounds worth of stolen phones a quarter untill the authorities lent on them now a phone being sold as block in uk will be taken off ebay.

That is wrong. As you know - operators use a central dbase that those agreed operators update their network. The AC or HLR.

 

Definately European & America. As it's been proved that India operator is not part of the collective operator.

many operators dont update their systems because it stops traffic reducing revenue any uk blocked phone will work abroad providing its not a network used in uk for example if you sell a uk stolen phone to someone in australia wh uses it on australia vodaphone it wont work because vodaphone use te same database as uk in australia but other networks in australia like Telstra couldnt give a shit about blocked:search: phones in uk.
