Problem:
In Israel phones are locked (due to the ministry of telecommunication's order) for bluetooth use. even if they were not purchased in israel the SIM locks this option. could you kindly let me know if you are able to fix this problem and make by BlueTooth work.

Hi John,

Guess if this is possible and you would use it in Israël (and get caught)you would be into big trouble right??? What is the meaning otherwise of disabeling such a function???
Or do you want to use your israelic sim outside Israël

and no offence m8, was just wondering

Maybe its to prevent any terrorists to use it in any action and u, if u got any selfpreservation, just leave it alone. Do u read. Leave it!

not worth the risk if u r thinking of using it in home country where it's prohibited....any normal military band/radio device would be able to pick up if within range.....read that somewhere in a tech magazine....

Toxic,
I have been using bluetooth for a year now with the Ipaq and no one
arrested me or noticed it.
If you know how to enable the BT in the t68i do not worry .
please send me info if you find the solution.

Hi Toxic
Please listen to these guys, they know what they are saying... BlueTooth is Illigel here for a particular reson - It is dangerous! I'm sure u can imagine what terrorists can do with it... And once the distance increases it will be even more dangerous... Belive me, I am frustrated just as much as u are, but we just have to get along without BT... It's not that bad...

Hi guys,
I just wanted 2 let you know that Israel is a democratic country and no one would be arrested here for using bluetooth. The IDF has agreed to let go of the bandwidth and they just want to get paid for it.
The stores here have devices with BT such as Ipaq and many people use it without any problems.
If only I knew how to enable the BT.

When you roam into Israel with a foreign T68i and foreign simcard with bluetooth turned on their army radars will home in on you and you'll be blown up before you even reach for the off button... hope that doesn't scare anyone from taking a holiday there

Well, i think u all got a little mizundastud.
There are 2 seperate problems:
(1) i want to unlock my own t68.
(2) the phone is not the locked part, the sim locks it.

and the most important part:
No one will arrest you,
it's just illegal (like speeding) if you use it, and do it quietly and no one notices, it's not a problem. the army isn't going to arrest anyone. i just need to open the F**king BT without hurting my SIM card. that's it.

and Tal - way2go!
