Ha! What's the chances of me & masseur posting exactly the same thing at exactly the same time again?
Doesn't look as though Davinci can unlock W810's yet either:

yeah, thats a hell of a coincidence!
I did check davinci after posting and noticed they don't show unlock capability yet, but in any case you need a different cable to do the unlock. I bought one from them for about 20 euros

Normally when a SE phone is locked it says "insert correct sim" when you turn the phone on.
Are you sure all the oadlocks are closed? Normally they only close one padlock. |
