No it gave me an error message saying it can't communicate with my phone. I tried it on my laptop (windows 7) and on my desktop (Vista) .. same error message on both

This is very frustrating and its BS that we have to continue donating b/c they wont reply. Im glad Badsez workaround is working for me, but it doesnt seem to work for anybody else. I'll keep looking.

I agree with you in that if your worried then don’t use it, however we truly don’t know EACH BIT of information that it collects. Right now we know it works to unlock, if you have a problem open a support ticket and wait or donate $5.12. If you get a replacement device it’s possible they won’t grant the free unlock and you have to pay. Awesome way to make money because right now they get an unlimited amount of donations with no end in sight. Lol Pay or use stock roms. Lol (novel concept)

i WISH it were unlimited donations LOL. it is not... from another post of yours, it looks like I DID help you, so why do you keep spreading nonsense rumours about us rejecting the requests?

that can't be it because people have tried to unlock from a different location altogether (different ip, different computer, etc) without luck. so it's more likely the log your phone number, imei, ip address, etc and if any red flags come up in the verification process, you're denied

we don't log phone number or SIM card info.

Code:

Bill Indelicato,

 

the software is provided as-is with no warranties either express or implied.

 

If you have security concerns then you should not run the program, simple as that, we provide the service of our own free will under our terms, we are not slaves of the public, the software remains our own.

 

What I will say is that we don't collect any information that can be used to identify you personally, however, if you're unfortunate enough to live in some despot dictatorship with a government that particularly hates you and also has the power to confiscate your equipment in order to identify you then you could have a problem, but then again, if someone had that much power, I doubt they'll be contacting us to ask if your machine was used to Hard-SPL a device, don't you agree?

 

either way, it's simple: if you don't trust it, don't use it.

Clearly the person replying is not thinking properly...these concerns only come after using the product. not before...we weren't aware of the raising issue before. We weren't subject to proper terms of the unlocker. Although he/she claims that no information is obtained that may be used to identify me personally...i still must disagree. If he/she has access to the inner workings of the device upon activation then he/she certainly have access to information that is pertinent to my identity including contact info...esn...info on business and personal contacts stored in device...naked pics of my wifey...etc.

JESUS what assumptions. no, we don't have or acquire info on any of that!!! why would we care anyway???
