I got a mates phone sent over from UK to here in Australia after being told it was unlocked. It turns out its still locked to Orange. Gay.
Ive tried a Cydia app call SAMprefs and ultrasn0w but still no joy.
Anyone any ideas??

04.10.01 can't be unlocked through the Gevey sim method.
Only way is if it was his from new Orange will charge his around £15 to get it unlocked properly

I unlocked mine through the O2 website and then connected to iTunes a few days later and it was done!
Don't orange do similar?
