Hi, guy,s can these be unlocked the same as my sanfrancisco zte and is it free to unlock thank,s for any advice,Alf,,,,
Hi Alf, problems with the OMC, according to the guys on Modaco...linked.
Check out this thread
They are using all sorts, like TurboSIM, etc, but most ppl are waiting for three months, to get the official onlock code from Orange, that is buy the code, based on your IMEI.
Seems Skate/OMC is a lost cause, and lost opportunity for Orange, and ZTE, being under-powered, over-sized, the Blade's fatter unfit big brother, too much curry and chips, and very much "last year"....I would say avoid.
Although, it is cheap to buy from Orange,

but I would hold off for a little while Alf..... unless you are confident wirh drivers., modifying txt files, restoring lost MAC addresses, etc, etc
looking at that thread, I feel something more noob-friendly will emerge inevitably......
very good thread and news though.... really excellent ;-)

Whilst containing details for using an alternative sim from giffgaff (02 network piggyback) I think this video will show the underlying process. Says he who hasn`t even got his Android phone yet and not sure if I`ll end up with the San Fran II depending on stock levels and delivery from Orange or the Monte Carlo (in shop up to now).

Have a look and see anyway, make sure it matches the text instructions you read from here too. It looks the same but I`m no expert. Hope this helps to give a little more confidence, it has me.
