i want to try the 13 second trick on my f500i but i have 1 question: the phone is unlocked and if i do a master reset will it be locked to vodaphone again because i am using the phone on orange at the mo and vodaphone is no good to me.also what is the percentage of success?

The 13 second thread is not recommended. And yes. There might be a chance of the old stuff coming back. Listen to more views before doing this trick.

i dont think so, im sure 13 second trick will not work, K-series not like the T310, T610 etc, K-series have no memory problem like them, as i see, the memory problem make the 13 second trick work. while 13 second trick working, the phone hold the picture to not be displayed, each time the picture displayed, the phone memory reduced, and u know K-series didn't like that

A lot of people have done the 13 sec. trick, but with different results. Some succeded but others had their phones doing things that they had to have it re-flashed just to be able to use it.
Your phone may deliver a different result. As posted several times before, 'Do it at your own risk'.
Do a search. Read through the different posts.

Then, the ultimate question that you should ask yourself is:
"Is it worth the trouble?"

if it can be done on the spot for no more than £20 then i will do it.if it costs more than £20 and i have to send it away then i will not do it. if i have to send it away but it will only cost £10 or less then ill do it.i dont want to go through loads of trouble for nothing.also i want to get a new case for it because the one ive got have a vodaphone logo onit and its quite scratched.ill change the case later though unless i get offered a good price.
