Thanks for posting.
I will send them both again.

Is there another unlocker we can use, Mordy?

I agree - I will give all the slack in the world to the awesome devs and rom chefs on here that do what the do for the love or for REAL donations- but as soon as you REQUIRE payment for functionality - make no mistake they are doing this - you are a vendor. With this comes certain responsibilities - customer service and a product that WORKS.

These guys are screwing a lot of people out of money with no functionality and no answers to emails and requests in many cases. I have enjoyed and appreciated their work in the past, but this system is flawed and takes them from the realm of cool laid-back tinkerers to scam artists. I have no doubt this was not their intention, but it is the outcome. I received a replacement TP2 from VZW and I am not even bothering unlocking. I figure that it is the only option I have as I do not have the knowledge to unlock on my own and I don't trust these guys now that I have watched my brother email and PM for over a month.

Yes it is only $6 - no I am not THAT cheap (most of the time) - but these guys are now software vendors charging for what is most likely illegal software and I am staying away from it. (PS I agree it should not be illegal, but it still is and charging for it makes this even worse)

Also who cares if others make money off of this software - they are charging for the service and the know-how of unlocking - anyone who is willing to pay one of these guys to unlock and flash for them is not gonna find it themselves anyway. I just find it funny and hypocritical that guys who worked hard to find a way around what is basically harwdware copy protection are now basically copy protecting their work. Bad Form. Either unlock or make your stuff work at least 90% of the time.

I'm not trying to bash these guys. I appreciate their work.:)

But, if you want my money, just ask for it. :)
If you want to be a vendor, just communicate with your customers. :)

Posts like the one below on a similar XDA thread is why I'm not paying until I get a response:

I've unlocked 3 different TP2 with my copy for no charge. I'm running Vista Home Edition if that helps

People unlocking multiple phones is why the developers claim they started charging. Posting that may just piss them off. :(

For the record, I'm just a consumer that wants to unlock ONE phone for my personal use.

Re: Is there more than 1 unlocker for tp2?
 
I hate to admit it, but I realized the time I was wasting online with this issue was NOT worth $6 and I have so much time and money invested in the TP2, that I was foolish not to just to gamble the $6.

As advertised, the unlocker worked after I paid the $6.
FYI to the developers:
Just ASK for $6 in the beginning and be UP FRONT about it.
People will gladly pay it.
The misleading process/format made me question the software/developer and caused me to WASTE a lot of my time.:cussing::angry1:

Unfortunate way of doing business, but I thank you for your work and am happy I spent the $6. :)

You did.
Thank you. :)

But, rubbing it in doesn't help now and it's still a shady way of doing business.


I'm happy now.:)
I HOPE everyone has the same experience after paying the $6 that I did.

Re: Is there more than 1 unlocker for tp2?
 
Yeah, BUT..... the fact remains that this unlocker is supposed to work for free when you download it and use it once. And half the time when it doesn't work, you pay the $6 bucks.. abd it either works.... or doesn't once again. Every time you have to try, you are forced to pay $6 bucks again.. doesn't matter if it unlocked on that attempt or not. It's like you get charged for each attempt... NOT for each unlock. And that's bulls***! A lot of the times it's some bulls*** with Windows XP. or Vista is being gay, or something in the phone is causing the unlocker not to work and get stuck on the black screen.

I can't even try until I nuke Vista or whatever crapass process is eating the .exe file.

Unfortunately, discussing this on PPCGeeks (even through a PM) would be quite problematic. CMonex is also a moderator here...

But, since these threads are being ignored, and I can't even get a response, I have no faith that the unlocker is going to work in the 1st place, let along ongoing.
Add the fact that we're all being accused of "previous unlocks" when we KNOW there are no such attempts, and it get;s even shadier.

All the developers have to do is get on here and address the situation in order to restore faith.

Sounds like you would like your cake and like to eat it too?

you're saying, that you'd gladly pay for a 6$ unlimited unlock license, when there is no such infrastructure for this option.

for example have u thought about this "donation" to unlock is a roadblock to mass unlockers that resell the Touch Pro2 unlocked for use on any carrier upping the price a few hundred bucks above standard

Sounds like a lot of ignorance, being spewed, when 99% of the people who used the unlocker had no problems, then theres's that 1% that screwed something up or didn't follow directions

Re: Is there more than 1 unlocker for tp2?
 
You know, not all unlock failures are user error. I understand some people are at fault because they didn't do something right or didn't disable AV etc, then they go and yell at Olipro or Cmonex and make a ruckus. But on many other occasions, it's NOT the usuers fault. It can be software/phone issues, problems pertaining to a version of Windows, Software/driver issues in windows or on phone, morep robelsm on phone due to Activesync or WMDC not functioning properly, etc etc etc. Don't ALWAYS blame the user just because the unlocker worked for you. Just because it worked flawlessly for you and a bunch of others doesn't mean it will do the same for all users. Windows isn't exactly bug free you know, same for WM. Hook the 2 together and you got combination issues.

I praise them and all the hard work they have done to get HSPL's and Radio unlockers. But please try and work on the bugs.... not to mention the donations (already unlocked issue). I understand they are always busy working on HSPL's among other things for other devices and that they won't be able to get to your email right away. I know they have to be getting flooded with emails. This may be the reason why some people never hear back. Perhaps they should work on the ticket system, or even better, avoid most of this mess and maybe do something about the plague of bugs that lurk within this software.

Flame me all you wish. I'm just spending a few more cents here. Thank you for your time , and thanks again to cmonex and olipro for all their hard work and effort. I would appreciate some feedback from them sometime. Since cmonex is a mod here, he/she should have no problem finding this thread. :)

Re: Is there more than 1 unlocker for tp2?
 
Funny I have used the unlocker at least 10-15 times for different people and never had 1 issue.....I am going to go with user error for the small amount that are having issues....
