Mobile Phone Unlocking

Q: What is phone unlocking?

A: Phone unlocking is the process of removing the lock placed on your phone by your network provider (O2, Vodafone, 3, Meteor, Orange etc).

For example;

If you were to put a Vodafone sim card into a Meteor phone, you will get the following message;


Sony Ericsson phones display Insert correct sim card.
Nokia phones display Invalid Sim or Enter Restriction code.
Motorola phones display Enter subsidy code.
iPhones will display Invalid Sim.
Phones on the 3 network will often display Insert USIM.
Other phones like NEC & Alcatel will ask you for a NCK code.
Etc...
We can unlock your mobile phone at our shop. We offer several different options for mobile phone unlocking, depending on the make and model of your phone. There are many benefits to unlocking your phone, including the ability to use your phone all over the world, increasing its value, and moving to a cheaper or preferred network tariff with increased versatility.

Most of todays phones require us to unlock them by specialised unlocking equipment & cables, in this case we would need the phone to unlock it. Although some models can be unlocked by us providing you with the unlock code.

Mobile Phone Debranding


What is debranding ?

Debranding means removing that awful operator firmware, and replacing it with the manufacturers original firmware. Hence converting your phone to the full spec as it was intended by the manufacturer. (the way it should be)

What are the benefits of debranding ?

Once your mobile has been debranded, you will notice all the menu systems are clearer, un-restricted, the network logos will be gone and your phone will often be faster too. We use the latest firmware to date, which will hold improvements on your old firmware. This often removes any software glitches that your phone previously had. Also some networks firmware prevent you uploading ringtones & pictures via cable, or manually setting your internet homepage, debranding enables you to do this.

How do we debrand phones ?

We have the necessary tools and latest mobile firmwares (software flash files) to enable us to flash the software of your phone. This deletes and replaces the existing operators software with the original generic and un-restricted, un-branded manufacturers software.


Firmware Upgrading

What is Firmware Upgrading?

We have access to all the latest firmware files for the newest mobile phones.

Did you know that when most phones are released (especially Nokia) that they, on average are at least 5 new firmwares released for your phone in the first year.

Why Upgrade?

Like PC software, manufacturers improve & patch the firmware in your mobile phone. These patches improve the phones performance and correct bugs.

Bonus Benefits of Our Upgrade Service

If Possible, we will only use generic firmware and not operator versions of firmware, so you also get your phone debranded too. This means all the awful looking, slow, and often restricted firmware is removed and replaced with newer improved & none restricted generic firmware. You can also change the primary language of your phone using our service.


Product Code Changing

This service is for Nokia phones. We can change the product code of your branded Nokia phone to a generic one, so that you can update your phones firmware to the latest version available using NSU (Nokia Software Update (http://europe.nokia.com/get-support-and-software/download-software/device-software-update/download)).


Language Changing

As well as debranding we can also change the language on your phone too. We can put just about any language on your phone.
