I have tried unlocking (not debranding) my v800 using tms and a T28 service cable. It recgnises the phone and cable ok but I get an error when I try to unlock the phone. It is a CID36 phone and TMS say that they unlock CID36 phones ok. I have sent an email with the error logs to TMS and am waiting for a reply. Any ideas what could be wrong? Has anyone unlocked their CID36 V800?

I used Da Vinci and it worked like advertised. I do think that JonnyQ did the unlock and flash using TMS. Send him a PM.

Not sure about unlocking CID36, if you run Da Vinci's remote unlocker program it says it can unlock CID36 handsets but not CID Z800's.
Whether or not this works for CID36 V800 handsets before they are flashed to Z800, I don't know.
Your best bet is to email Da Vinci and ask them first.

TMS will now unlock CID36 phones if you use the latest version (1.67). I started doing the job for me but my computer crashed halfway through (just after my credits had been taken).

Did they give you the credit back? The are pretty good about this. I have never had a "locked" phone, so I could not advise you on this, but when I flashed my v800 --> z800, the flashing worked just fine and it installed some other applications that the Vodafone f/w did not have.

I used DaVinci not TMS to unlock my CID29 V800, not sure about CID36 though. If anyone manages to unlock a CID36 V800 post your results here.
DaVinci's says it can unlock CID36 but not CID36 Z800's, not sure about V800's before they are flashed to Z800.

I used Da Vinci and went from a v800 to z800. Mine was not locked(can you define this) but was Vodafone branded. Now no branding and I have WorldMate(unlocked). I am one happy camper. I must say, I think the black z800 looks nicer than the champagne color, but it is my opinion.
