A reasonable thought to have. You can never be too cautious when personal ID is at stake. The seller in question has pitched up a couple of times on HUKD to thank people for putting business his way and to tell that he is taking a break over Christmas. In other words, no worries with this seller.

[Moto G General] ManBearrrPig:
i do understand that unlocking the bootloader does not void your warranty, but i am conserned about sim-unlocking.

so tesco is offering the moto g a lot cheaper BUT you are bound to use his mobile services. it just does not make sense that tesco is offering the device 36€ cheaper and than the consumer pays 3€ and gets it unlocked AND keeps his warranty.. i dont get it.

i ordered a moto g from tesco (8gb for 120€) and if i sim-unlock it and unlock the bootloader and than afterwards my hardware fails. what happens? tesco must repair my phone because it is still under warranty, BUT i have to pay tesco for SIM-UNLOCKING it?
[Moto G General] 2hipso:
once you pay for sim-unlocking your phone, tesco can't charge you again. Only if they sim-lock your phone again after the repair. Then you will must pay for sim-unlock your phone. But not only tesco can sim-unlock phone. Every good mobile service can do this.
[Moto G General] ManBearrrPig:
i do understand that if tesco unlocks the device themselves the warranty stays, but i dont get it that you can pay a random dude to i guess illegaly SIM-unlock your phone and you still keep the warranty..

so they are offering moto g 36€ cheaper and everyone can SIM-unlock it for 3€ AND tesco cant do s*** abaut it? so why are they selling it so cheap?

i do understand that some people do not know how to unlock it, but there are a lot who do. dont they have a huge lose by selling the device underpriced?
[Moto G General] 2hipso:
not at all

I think the philosophy is: if you are their costumer and want a Moto G, they offer you underpriced device because they don't want you to buy Moto G in rival store. So they just lock that phone and offers you "their" phone for good price. And they know that if TESCO user want a Moto G, he will buy it there, because it's cheaper and it's nevermind that is TESCO sim-locked.

it's like when you get a coupon that you can use on ANOTHER buy. They offering coupon only because they know you will buy things there :)

NOTICE that this may vary. In my country your warranty stays when you perform sim-unlocking anywere. But in UK can be different rules for that.
[Moto G General] ManBearrrPig:
if they sell only 2000 moto g that is 70 000€ loss + the sales from other cheap phones they are offering go down, so additional loss there..

they already have coupons and tesco points to attract customers. god damn this is bugging me. i googled it but did not find anything reliable.
[Moto G General] 2hipso:
i dont know

few years ago (before smartphones) t-mobile in my country was offering sim-locked phones cheaper and also with logo on the cover. So I really don't know why they do it.
[Moto G General] ManBearrrPig:
because they offer you a cheaper phone that is locked to their network, so they are expecting to get money out of you by using their network. this part makes sense. they bait you with a cheap phone BUT you are bound to use their services.

i also get that if THEY(tesco in this case) unlock your phone (and you pay a lot) you still keep the warranty.

but i dont get that if a random dude unlocks your phone without tescos permission for few bucks, you keep the warranty.

the only logical and fair thing would be that tesco (and other companys) protect themselves with law. so for example if you SIM-unlock you loose your warranty or have to pay the difference in price that they have subsodized (so in this case 36€).
[Moto G General] 2hipso:
i dont know

sim-locked phones are locked with number right? Maybe tesco selling this numbers to authorized services and make money. That law doesn't exist in my country so I really can't help you with this. Check your warranty laws. If it's not mentioned there, you can't lose your warranty.
[Moto G General] razorsbk:
So anyone unlocked his O2 Moto G using the guy from ebay ?
[Moto G General] shootomanUK:
i unlocked a tesco moto g at the weekend, worked first time and had the code sent to me in 30 mins and only £1.99 now !
[Moto G General] nimdy:
Does anyone know how these eBay sellers get their unlock codes? So they have a bit of software or hardware that generates the codes? Might be a nice little side business to get into if the s/w h/w is cheap.
[Moto G General] Stupidchavs:
16GB model on Tesco.

Code was sent within 20 mins.

Very fast, very concise.

His item description leaves no room for ambiguity either.

This guy is quick and accurate.

And all for £1.99!

Brilliant!
[Moto G General] b1g1an:
Jeez you lot are naive, Tesco aren't making a loss on these, they're making a smaller profit than the rest but in the process cornering the market and shifting them by the lorry load, therefore making a much bigger profit overall. They're probably allowed to sell sim locked ones for less as they are then considered not to be undercutting Motorola's other retailers and pissing them off. Hence why they offer the unlocked ones at the same price as everyone else.
[Moto G General] AndroidInsanity:
Can someone PLEASE

[Moto G General] eSSeMM:
I Love Tesco ....

Last night the 16GB Moto G was showing as being in stock on the Tesco website .... so I ordered one.

Today they sent me an sms to say that they don't have the sim locked version in stock .... so they will be sending me an unlocked one and apologised for the inconvenience.

(I bought an 8GB one for my son before Christmas and had that unlocked by the guy on ebay within a few hours)

[Moto G General] nirmalbalaji:
I was about to buy Moto G 16GB from TESCO (UK) and will get a SIM unlock code from eBay. I hope it works. But I have a concern about it. Will the mobile accept Indian SIM cards? I'm not a UK resident, I live in India. Just buying the mobile from TESCO because its cheaper than in India.

Try lineoutcomms on eBay. I have used them twice for Moto G unlock codes - received working codes within 10 minutes of purchase.
[Moto G General] Stalka:
If I pay to have the phone unlocked. Then messed with it, (rooted, new firmware etc.) would it ruin the unlock and have to pay again?
[Moto G General] Triumph750:
does NOT work with verizon moto-g 1028 :(
[Moto G General] Minervamc:
Really ?Is still available now ?
[Moto G General] andreavda:
sure, I regret purchasing the moto g 8gb sim free from amazon.co.uk, amazon.co.uk is now offering the vodafone payg locked version for 94.99 GBP, plus the unlocking code 96.99 GBP, still 15 GBP cheaper than what I paid for the sim free version.

Although the locked version will probably show the vodafone logo when starting the device, and the rom may be slightly different from the sim free version, I hate the starting logo, in fact I removed it from my HTC wildfire just after the end of the warranty.

Anyway I wonder what the price of this device will be in 1 year, right now it's 94.99 GBP with free shipping, since the release it keeps going down, in 1 year you'll get the moto g in the double pack pringles xD
[Moto G General] :
Still locked for me.

Tried 3 ebay sellers and unlock-unit and all failed to unlock my Argos purchased locked to vodafone moto G :(

One ebay seller said my IME was rejected what ever that means ?
[Moto G General] maurocds:

[Moto G General] zkvvoob:
Folks, just a quick question: does this offer work only for cells bought from Tesco or can it be used with any other phone? I've got one, bought on the Internet, but I don't now the name of the carrier to which it's locked.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siciliano777:
The Samsung swipe is horribly inaccurate. Out of all the different swipe keyboards I've used, Swype is just the most accurate.

[HTC EVO 3D] TeChNoC4AzY:
I have had my HTC EVO 3D (CDMA) for about a month now and the screen is starting to get annoying.. Im not sure if the digitizer is messed up. When i first got it-it was ok but then when playing modern combat 4 (while moving around) i noticed the joystick would suddenly stop responding about 5 seconds after i started moving around & it wouldn't stop. After 2 weeks or so i noticed that when i apply pressure to the top half of the screen it just goes crazy (things will touch itself and would not stop till i stopped the pressure) so i then realized this is what was causing the modern combat 4 problems (or any other fps game). What i now would do is make sure while playing fps games not to push on the screen (joystick side/area) and it was ok. Now things are getting even more weird, just yesterday i was able to play blitz biradge just fine, but now when pressing on the joystick and scrolling the view on my screen. The view will just jump around everytime i scroll left or right. I tried rewriting my rom and reinstalling kernel (didnt work). Im not sure what to do...and i have a 4.2.2 rom so im not sure how to calibrate screen (if this might be a fix). Any help will be thanked!
[HTC EVO 3D] donkeykong1:
First check if your battery is swollen. It can happen if your CPU is overclocked and you play demanding games. The phone heats up and destroys ethe battery which swells up and applies pressure to the screen. If your battery is OK then you have digitizer issue

Sigh...even when the phone is fresh on a ROM it will still do the same thing.. Any way you can find a cheap digitizer i can buy for the HTC evo 3d CDMA (link)? Thanks..
