> Using a K750i without a sim card?
Bookmark topic
Hi. First of all I'd like to thank all the contributers to esato for making it such a wonderful resource to use for all my SE needs. I've used it for years but have never found a need to post, until now.
Now onto the question.
Can I use my SE K750 without a sim card?
At the current moment when I switch it on, it just says: "insert sim card" and then the only possible action is to switch it off. I remember the old phones of ye olde times used to run regardless if there was a sim or not, for example the SE p800. So then, is this 'feature' present on all k750 or is it only because I bought it 'locked' into the network provider? In which case, can I disable it without unlocking the phone, cos I'm a cheapo.

Not really the point of this topic but there is a patch to use flight mode and use everything but after everything has started.

Thanks.
Its rather lame that it requires a sim card! I might just have to dabble into the underground world of firmware patching and flashing
. Its a phone thats out of contract so I may as well.
Be sure to look out for a thread requesting 'Help, my phone is broke!' in the near future.
Bye Bye
