[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] fingery:
Got mine from O2 shop online. Also have a colleague who got his there and it's not locked either.

Pretty good deal now....£140 and a £20pm 12 month contract.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] tinvek:
running my o2 exec with an orange sim no problem

no unlocking required

just needed to change the internet id to orangeinternet
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] xiasma:
If your XDA is locked, I understand O2 charge an unlocking fee of £15. T Mobile (UK) charge the same amount to unlock and MDA Pro.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] techDot:
clarification -

As far as i gathered from this forum and other sources the o2 Xda Exec is unlocked to other :!: :!: UK :!: :!: mobiles.

This is not the case with non-UK SIMs.

Can someone using the device with a non-UK SIM add his comments on the matter :?:
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] techDot:
o2 - UPDATE

just called o2 customer services to inquire about possibility of unlocking the xda Exec (at least to foreigh SIMs if not other UK SIMs which seem to be working fine) and was told that it wouldn't be possible for at least a YEAR :!: :!: :!:

:evil:

one representative of o2 doesn't know of policies stated by another...
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Southern_Man:
sounds bollocks to me.... it's more work to lock non-uk networks than uk networks.

Exec is not sim-locked, period.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] monakh:
Can anyone install a non-UK sim (if they have one handy) to see if the fact mentioned above is in fact true or not? I am thinking of importing an Exec to the US (well currently in the Middle East) and am just concerned about the Sim Lock. Thanks.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] DavidW:
I am interested in the answer to this as I live in Switzerland and can only get the M5000 with German or French os I only understand English! It is currently worth my while to get an O2 Exec, plus yearly subscription, as it saves me a little money and I get it in English. I have a Swiss Orange subscripton sim and in addition a prepaid Swisscom sim. If I can help please let me know. I am happy to post out the prepaid to someone to try it. I will also be in London (Docklands) on the 4th November for a few days visiting my sons.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Wiz:
Just received mine from the UK, and it was unlocked. Works perfectly well on Dutch Vodafone, T-Mobile and KPN simcards and networks.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] john:
wiz,

So basically you're telling us that the xda exec is clean of any kind of locks?

no simlock at all?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] nextofkin:
o2 xda execs arent locked

o2 xda execs arent locked
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] GadiShoshani:
Dont bet on it.

Im not sure,

but if i noticed correctly - whoever bought it from O2 online shop recieved an unlocked version, and other recieved locked versions.

besides - it might have been just part of the phones who werent locked.

Wiz - please state where exactly did you buy your phone,

10x !
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] dinopio:
XDA EXECS are UNLOCKED!

I can confirm this with 5 sim cards (yes I am a busy person)

Cyprus Sim (CYTAGSM)

UK Sims (Orange, T-mobile, O2, Voda)

So No worries

As far as i hear, the M5000 is locked and the are trying to figure out how to unlock it. Dont know about MDA Vario or other rebranded ones
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] xiasma:
MDA Pro is unlocked but T Mobile will unlock an in-contract handset, after 28 days of ownership, for a fee. If you hassle them, they'll unlock it after 1 hour* of ownership 8)

*Well, at least they'll let you request an unlock code that comes through a couple of weeks later.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] twoday:
what about the execs from o2 shop? i want know if they are unlocked.

thanks
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Proficientium:
I updated via OTA. The file size of the update was about 50mb. After rebooting, it installed the update but it stuck in the samsung boot logo. It remained stuck after two hours, and it was getting hot, I decided to reboot it. Same thing happens everytime I reboot, that is it is stuck at the glowing samsung logo.

I tried to press every combination of holding the Power button + Volume up or down button. Download mode doesn't show up.
[Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hrbrt14:

I was trying to get my Kindle Fire HD 7, getting it ready to sell (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2409435). But i've done something wrong, i have transfered the file to my Kindle, wipe everything expect sd. Afterwards i flashed the update 7.4.6 bin, and wipe the sd again. And rebooted my Kindle fire. And now its stuck on the Kindle Fire logo. HELP! I need fix this within the next 24 hours! I DO NOT have a fastboot cable either.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] stunts513:
Does the logo ever turn blue? If it doesn't you will need a fastboot cable to fix.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] caithao:
No! it's just stuck on the orange logo. I dont have a fastboot cable, i'm selling this within the next 24 hours to someone. I need to get this fix ASAP!
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] stunts513:
Well unless you can make a fastboot cable with a soldering iron then your going to have some problems. I can try to see if you can get it into fastboot the way we do 8.9" models, but if you plug the device in and your PC doesn't detect a Tate device in the device manager then you will have to goto the fastboot cable method. If it does then try to quickly install the drivers in my signature. From there you would just need a command prompt and the fastboot command.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] caithao:
My PC doesn't detect the Kindle, i've also downloaded the usb_drivers in your signature but what now? Add me on cai.thao at skype for faster instant chat!, IM FREAKING OUT!

Gentlement, I messed it all!!

I way installing a new ROM, whiping and etc. I made a mistake, and on the following attempt it did not work.

When I do a normal booth (buttons), the Lg logo appears and stays there.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] leeowens54:
The other day I bought the samsung infuse from a guy, and he told me the wifi wouldn't turn on, so I assumed it was a software issue.

This is everything I tried:

-Factory Reset

-Flashed back to stock with root with Odin

-Flashed Flashed ICS recovery

-Flashed Beanstalks Rom

-Flashed CM10.2 Rom

After all of these steps, I still can't get the wifi to turn on. Ive also tried all the fixes I found online, dialing *#*#526#*#*, with fixer app, etc. Could this be a hardware issue?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] magnetboard:
Did you try turning wifi on when using the stock rom?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] leeowens54:
Yeah, it wouldn't turn on then either.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] leeowens54:
So I was looking t qkster's How-to on installing roms, and under the wifi fixes, I tried all of them, and FXR wifi fixer gets stuck at 'Deleting Profiles'. Still can't get it to turn on, could somebody please help?!?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] zmali1:
wifi will not turn on AT All

do you have mac address issue. i do have the same issue
[Samsung Infuse 4G] leeowens54:
It's not a MAC address issue for me as far as I know, I just can't get my wifi to turn on period. Like I can't even get to the point where it will scan for networks. Also noticed my bluetooth won't turn on, but I don't really use it.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] zmali1:
wifi will not turn on AT All

try to use the code *#*#232338#*#* and check if the wifi mac address is available.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] leeowens54:
Found it in settings and it says 'Unavailable'. I'm assuming this is your issue too, but could it the reason my wifi won't turn on?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] zmali1:
wifi will not turn on AT All

yes this is the reason that why your wifi not turn on and i also want to know to tech peoples to solve this problem
[Samsung Infuse 4G] leeowens54:
After browsing a bunch of forums I still can't find a fix... 160 views, So I'm not the only one having the problem. Surely someone can find a fix, I need wifi, I have a data limit.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] leeowens54:
So I flashed back to stock, and tried to flash drivers, and it said they installed successfully. But on stock GB it will turn on, scan, then turn off, not detecting any networks. Help??
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
Troubleshooting this require several directions.

1. Make sure the router or the wifi source is working properly. Are the other devices picking up the wifi signal also?

On the router, there is a dhcp lease time...set this on a different setting, ie..from Forever to 2 wks ..etc

2. Back up your data and pics etc and take out the micro sd card. Factory reset and data wipe with full format a few times from in the ROM. Boot into cwm and reset again.

The flash to complete GB stock - heimdall or odin with a complete re-partition - and try to run it stock. Try reseting the router again.

3. Open the phone and check the connections, remove the circuit board and the connections. See if anything is loose or corroded.

If after this and your wifi won't turn on, it could be hardware.

The easier solution is to take it or send it to a repair shop..repairuniverse and mobiletechvideo are two examples I've seen on other posts

gl
[Samsung Infuse 4G] leeowens54:
Yes, all devices in my house are receiving wifi. I've done all of the above except for open my phone, which I don't have the means to do. This weekend I'll be taking it to a repair shop to get looked at. I'll let you guys know if they fix it, and what the problem was.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] qkster:
yeah...i noted that you did..couldn't hurt to try it a few times though...sometimes, wifi doesn't work right due to voodoo or partition mismatch..only a repartition or complete reset a few times with reformat may fix...

fwiw, to open, all you may need is a small philip's screwdriver

[Samsung Infuse 4G] zmali1:

I took it to the repair shop, and he opened it and said it looked perfectly fine. Guess all I've got left to try is repartitioning.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] zmali1:
can you tell me how to do it i have used the odin to repartation the device.

Turning WIFI on...

Ok, so i've spent the last few hours trying to troubleshoot the above error... and i have a solution that worked for me... I couldn't turn my wifi on at all... it just said "Turning WIFI on..." in trying to fix the issue i was trying to download WIFI Fixer via 3G... which failed with error 492... so i followed the advice on this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1641114 which inadvertantly fixed my WIFI... So basically I cleared all Data and Cache of both Google Play and Google services framework... rebooted into recovery wiped cache, and cleared Dalvik cache, and my problem was solved... i hope this helps someone else.

[Lava Iris 504Q] avi3230:
Nice work Sir.

My own views about the rom.

Rom is good and has all features of stock so no issues.

But for me

First of all I really didnt liked the font u used.

for me APN error. Cant save APN (has to use other app)

Why 2 launchers, 2 music players.

2 playstore,gravitybox,youtube apk in system/app

older versions of apps e.g. gravitybox, xposed, mxpalyer.

Mobileuncletool crashing.

reboot app not working.

Thank you.

Sorry if I mistaken somewhere.

:good::good::good::good::good::good:

There is only one word to describe this work

AWESOME

Really great rom

using it rignt now

more fluid and much responsive, buttery smooth.

Till now havnt found any bug and I dont think anyone wil find any:fingers-crossed:

I hav done some modifications of my own (just removing unwanted/unused apk)

Changed the boot logo, bootanimation, shutanimation.

Deleted 39 apks from system/app :p (I never use them e.g. weather, live walls, facebook, youtube related etc)

Installed few apps which i use (xplorer, greenify, juice defender etc)

updated apps with new versions (Mxplayer, gravitybox, whatsapp etc)

rambooster now show more than 550mb free ram (more than stock <500mb)

Will test it more and will post my views (battery life, game play)

Only one suggestion (though its not essential) remove the second boot logo image

by changing system/media/images/boot_logo (i simply deleted it)

If u can add a dialer which has dual sim option please add (MIUI dialer)

Keep up the great work.:good::good::good::good::good:

[Lava Iris 504Q] avi3230:
Battery backup is very nice.

No probs with full charge it wil go all day long with moderate uses.

But its for me cause i done some modifications.

means deleted some apps which keeps on running in background e.g. facebook

I never use the app of facebook i use it from browser.

so it wil hav some impact on battery.

Also i never use widgets.

I keep all apps greenify.

But i dont think these things will hav much effect on battery.
