Specially Pls. don't go to the Vodafone Villagio store. The manager is very rude and when I complaint about my problem she asked me to leave.

But the HTC magic here in Qatar , the anderiod market is not built in with the phone. only the anderoid platform.

So no use and we are not able to get the feature what we are expecting.

Also I feel the service and assistance from vodaphone counter is very poor.

I feel they don't care customers.

Better to go with Qtel .

I had purchased recently. And it can be used both vodaphone and Qtel sim card.

nice mj, it runs faster than the iphone :D, my sons wanted to have one as well, but i told them they have to earn it, so they have to study hard first :D

:)

thanks for the suggestion, but i dont like samsung..

Go for Samsung Omnia i8910 HD , it's simply brilliant machine samsung made so far ...

ok, i was at the Villagio last thursday and i stopped by the Vodafone shop to ask about the HTC Magic.. the guy who works there assured me it is unlocked and can be used with other sim, so that settles it, im getting the HTC Magic! :)

;)

Hmmm ok, thanks jorj. Half wrong is enough for me to pull his leg for a long long time ;)

i bougt it new:)your friend from vf was half right.in my home country the phones are loked because you can get them at a cheaper price but with a contract(1 year or 2 years).so is normal that if a telco is giving you a cheaper handset it will expect from you to use its services:) also companies sign exclusivity contracts. for example blackbery storm 2 will launch exclusively for vodafone in some markets in europe.

vodafone qatar doesn't lock its phones because they don't sell their connections with contracts.maybe it s a question of the type of sim that you have from qtel...

jorj once it is unlocked by the illegal or pirated softwares, it can be used with any network in the world. maybe the guy who sold it to you had it unlocked already by using these softwares. I was speaking earlier in the day to a guy who has been working for Vodafone for past 2 years and he told me that this phone in its original form can't be used without Vodafone.

So either it is true or that bugger is a really lousy sales manager for Vodafone...

got the phone and its amazing!i love it instead of the iphone because it s smaller and the applications are for free!!!you have to have a google account to install applications though! the thing is that the phone is not locked people!it works with my romanian number!also the touch screen and the speed are amazing...but all of this things will be history in the next year and i will buy another phone...and another one...

thanks Olive, i will bookmark this thread :)

Try these guys. http://www.unlock-tmobileg1.com/EN/unlock+HTC+Magic.php That's where I got my unlock code from.

Just do a quick google search though mjamille and you should be able to find the unlock codes for Vodaphone and then you can use Q-Tel.

thanks Olive...

OTOsan i dont know what's wrong with it, but i just prefer the sim i am using right now..

whats wrong with vodafone :)

at least they give you only 3 minutes to talk then line is cut:) .. they dont want people to talk a lot !!

Ya, the Magic is the older one, therefore cheaper. Here's the one I got http://www.htc.com/www/product/dream/overview.html and I've unlocked it and I'm using Q-Tel.

Olive, they sell the Magic for 2199.. then they slashed 200 off it if you buy online.. but i was told it was locked to Vodafone... :(

Mine's not the magic, it's the Dream, and altogether it cost 2000 QR. I don't know how much Vodaphone is selling them for, but before I left the magic was selling for around 4000 QR unlocked.

Olive, converted to QR, how much did you get yours?

No legal way...

I bought mine overseas (for a lot cheaper) and now I'm using it with Q-Tel. Unlock codes are pretty easy to find on the internet though.

no way to unlock?

aww, that is bad news for me.. :(

MJ this phone is Vodafone locked, confirmed.. Don't buy it if you don't want to use Vodafone..

thanks chinx.. will inquire at Vodafone villaggio to be sure...

hawker, i haven't checked Jarir yet.. but Carrefour only has the HTC touch diamond..

have you checked it out at Jarir or Carrefour?

"How far you go in life depends on you being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, tolerant of the weak. Someday you will have been all of these."

i think its unlock sim from vodafone mj.you can use any sim you want..go girl buy what suits you...

which website? i dont like online purchasing.. :(

i think it has to be purchased only from there web site

hawker, i would love to,.. but the one i saw in Vodafone, im not sure if it's not locked to Vodafone sim.. and i dont want a vodafone line... :(

i wonder where else can one buy this..

per review it performs faster and smoother that apple's iphone, so buy it mj :D

so nobody knows where to get HTC Magic aside from Vodafone shops? :(

HTC is a company.

i'm also wondering if i will buy the htc or not.i've read a lot of good reviews about it and it feels good in hand.also the touch screen is very sensitive(very close to iphone)...but i' also thinking of waiting for the blackbery storm 2...

Pajju, i have no idea what the HTC stands for.. but this is the HTC Magic:

http://www.htc.com/www/product/magic/overview.html

Since it was launched by Vodafone, i would assume it comes only with Vodafone. This was supposed to propel them in the mobile internet market. I am not too sure you can use other sim cards with it..

Sorry, I thought you were talking about the magic of HRT ...

Makes life great ..

MJ wat is HTC ?

brit, what is HRT?

HRT is great .. Go for it .,.

tcom, it just doesn't appeal to me.. once i have thought about getting one, but decided against it, i kinda like this HTC Magic, i hope it works with Qtel sim..

i hate facebook :)

hmmmm why so?

[img_assist|nid=50852|title=hmm|desc=|link=none|align=left|width=|height=0]

tcom, i don't wanna jump into the iPhone bandwagon anymore... :P

Better to go for iphone

marketing by Vodafone....

lol Drac, if there are other shops that sell these HTC Magics, i would buy it from there, but so far, i have only seen it in Vodafone shops.. but i really dont want a Vodafone sim.. :(
