You need to flash it with the unlocked firmware, it's google time !

In the process of messing with that mate.. some really dubious little mobile phone apps out there so having to tread carefully.. If you can suggest an app that def works that would be helpful as most seem to not have this phone in thier database..

Also tried the numerous codes out there.. so far have not 'bricked' it Smile
