@sammy_boy - It will now all depend on your disposition mate Choose what is just right, I guess in a way you've been investing some money with those fones that you have, don't be like me mate, wherein I've 'wasted (unintentionally without knowing it due to the habit) around US$ 1K in changing fones almost on a weekly basis - all of which are 2nd hand ones If it will take some time for you to finalize decision - then come hell or high waters, then wait mate Don't depend your actions for the spur of the moment, also, by the way other members cajoling/whining/forcing you to send your unit - ASAP to them Good luck

I think you could be right @jojo - I have been spending a bit of money recently on phones - second (or even third!) hand ones! It's been a hobby of mine recently to fix up phones and sell them - but I've found myself keeping quite a few of them!!

I'm going to scale back some of my buying, and sell some of the phones I've acquired (and fixed!)

Could someone answer a query I have - what does the P900 say when it's blocked? For example, the T610 comes up with 'invalid mobile' where the network provider should be, and Nokias say 'sim card registration failed'. This P900 simply says 'searching'.

Does this point more to a signal fault rather than the phone being blocked?

Trying to make a call and the phone eventually makes the three ascending beeps to say it cannot make the call.

Help please!

'searching' is not a known error msg for P900 (according to my system)
invalid mobile though, is

@wapchimp - does this mean that the phone may have a signal/aerial fault as well as being blocked?

@DJ yes it does still turn on- it will do anything an unblocked P9 does except make/recieve calls & texts! Cam works fine, calendar, etc.
