Hi all,
Just bought a 2nd hand 5210 unlocked to all networks. Trouble is cannot get
it working on T-Mobile. I have two sim cards, one for O2 & one for
T-Mobile. The phone works perfectly well with the O2 card in. However when
the T-Mobile card is in, the phone operator display says "OneToOne", there
is maximum reception strength indicated, yet I cannot make/receive calls.
When I make a call I just get a repeated three tones (rising as if I had
dialled an incorrect number - but I am using numbers stored in the SIM
Card).
When I make a call to the phone using a land line, I get a nice lady
repeatedly informing me that: "Calls are not currently being connected to
this number".
Have tried three T-Mobile card (mine, the wifes, my sons) and they all do
the same.
Any assistance greatly appreciated.
Stuart
PS. I entered the unlock code myself and it said "<tick> Unlocked"... Cheers

Thanks for that -- someone else mentioned this too. Would it still work on
other networks though? Seller says he bought it new himself and is not
listed...
