Hi all, Im new to this Forum, I have a real problem I bought an HTC HD2 phone from the local free ads paper the man who I bought it off delivered it to my house face to face I give him £200 cash its brand new. It was working perfect for 5days now I think its been Blacklisted, I live in the UK and its illegal to change IMEI numbers here I dont want to do it as I do not want to be in trouble the number that was advertised in the free ads is no longer vaild, it dont ring so I cant get hold of this man. I just want to get my £200 back
Any advice will be great I dont want to contact the police becuase I dont know where this person live and they will surly take the phone off me and I will defo be down £200.
Ive listed it on ebay anyone who wants the link can contact me on msn. My question is that it if I sell it to someone who lives in the USA will the phone work for them as a friend told me it will becuase this phone is only blocked in the UK.
I really like this phone to and im real gutted whats happend to me any help or advice would be great . Thank you all for viewing my post and I hope to here some solutions to this problem

Hi,
How much you looking to spend? I've got an XDA II that I can part. It works perfectly and has the newest version of ROM.

Hi,
I bought mine used on eBay... It works fine here in Canada, not sure whether it was barred in UK or not.
According to the Seller, it wasn't barred anything. Not looking for a new motherboard. I am selling the phone in parts or in whole soon.

You'll need to use the retainer (for LCD connector) from the motherboard you have; My retainer broke when I tried to remove the cable. I'm holding it on with a piece of film negative right now.

XDA2 Mboard
Ive got a damaged XDA2 that I have driven over with a go-kart. I am just waiting for my insurers to send me a cheque for a new one before I release this one. It still can receive incomine calls and make all the beeps and tones. The screen and case is knackered. As soon as its avail I will post it here!!
I am sorry but the insurance company have kept it.
Go kart? what the sausage where u doing? I've 'ahem' had my xda stolen BUT I Hear from visions i have in my dreams that its NOT been barred :lol: ah well £220 in da bag :lol:
all reported stolen phones are blocked eventually, its just a matter of time usually.
Here's Hopin and will post news
its a shame everytime i start a new thread, its usually about mishaps. i have only been lucky with my still kicking HTC TYTN. i luv and respect u a lot. anyway, just paid £300 for a brand new Ameo(HTC ADVANTAGE) yesterday. and just this morning, its been BARRED. tried ringing the seller, but i guess he know he pulled a fast one and his phone number is unreachable. i love the handset still. if anyone is interested in buying pls PM me. never buy a phone off anyone on gumtree. there are all dodgy.Tmobile Customer service has been quite helpful and they did say the will be waiting for the man to make an insurance claim before they deal with him.its a shame they wouldnt gimme back my money. i am guessing this phone wouldnt work in UK.
take out the sim and then change the imei number then put a different sim back in. it should would work

That won't work, the Ameo uses completely unsupported hardware unless I'm mistaken. I hate scumbags like that and I'm sorry to hear of your plight.
My Ameo's on Ebay if you wanna buy a cheap one with extras.

Your phone CAN be unblocked by T-Mobile by authority of the owner, so it might be worth coaxing them into putting pressure on this tosser.
[email protected] is your best port of call.
EDIT:
YOU might not be aware, but despite its blocked status you can still use the handset for Internet browsing. Blocked phones are only blocked against using voicecall/SMS functionality.
i think i just bidded on yours.. that is if its on ebay. So, vodafone texts work, and internet works? just calls that dont?
rory

yeap, its the same handset. you can only send txt with Vodafone but not receive. if you make a good sensible offer, i wouldn't mind ending the auction early for you. the only reason i am giving you preference is because we both belong to the same forum. like state b4, it wouldn't make or receive phone calls.
220? or wait til' the auction ends
for £255, we have a deal. its been unlocked with Olipro thingy and its got the official wm6 tmobile rom on it. its ur call mate. am already losing money on it if i sell it for £255. out of curiosity, how do you intend to pay?
OK so I'm getting bored of my X10i as there is pretty much nothing you can do with it and I'm probaby going to go back to a winmo based phone.
I've had many x1s and loved that phone however I want something new, I've also have the Touch Pro2 and while it was brilliant I found the camera rubbish and it was just too 'thick'.
I've decided to go for the HD2 (I think after the x10 I wont notice a massive size increase, except screen obviously) however I'm stuck between getting a 2nd hand one which was on T-Mobile or Orange (UK for both).
The 'physical' branding on the T-mobile handsets seam less obtrusive so I think I'll go for that. My question is does anyone see a problem in getting an (UK) T-mobile branded HD2, debranding it and flashing costume ROMS & chaning the radio? I'll be using it on Vodafone (UK).
Thanks for the help, hope to be visiting this part of the forums more over the next few months.
you should have no problems at all with either, the phones are identical. might have to pay fifteen quid to get it unlockedbut that's it.
sam is the expert so no worries on that score. But i would advise caution on buying a second hand hd2. Just make sure the phone has no issues due to heat problems.
I know quite alot of hd2's switch off when they overheat and this results in normally needing a new motherboard etc. so make sure you test the phone before you buy it.
Good luck and i am sure you will luv your new phone.
Brilliant guys, thanks for the advise. Unfortunately I can't text the phone as I'm buying from CEX (I have vouchers to use plus I'm getting aboutn £200 in vouchers for my x10).
If the worst happens I have 12 months warranty or I'll just send it to HTC to get fixed... hopefully...

Ahhh i see. in that case mate i am sure it will be fine. It really is a great phone. Perhaps you should check out an energy rom?
Enjoy the phone!
I actually used the Engery ROMS on my X1 so I think it will be good to get back to it!
Thanks again guys!
I got mine from cex and it was on o2. Get a grade a stock as this is like new. Mine had the seal on everything even the phone hadn't been used on the network.then I went to the link on the o2 websiye and they give you the unlock code for free.
