Is the ZTE MF190 from the U-Mobile Prepaid package unlocked or SIM-locked ?

I just put in the Maxis SIM Card into MF190 (with U-Mobile logo) and it works... sent a test SMS via the application. Thus it's UNLOCKED (for my case)

dun say serve out the contract as i WILL extend it beyond 1 year as rm18/mth (1GB) after a full 12mths Maxis give you a free 1GB/mth (2GB/mth)is the cheapest around and can be re-rented out for rm28/mth to anyone.........remember its maxis postpaid which can be used with VPN  icon_idea.gif  not prepaid ( which cannot)

use it for tablet as mostly tablet can run on free wifi too, so not much bandwidth of the simcard is used......

Do you mean we actually get 1GB+1GB from this MOC package ?

nope only 1GB, but i strongly believe if we stay for over a year, Maxis will reward us with another 1GB next year , it happened to its customers before, wat more next year is the year of LTE and Broadband Bandwidth will be "loosen" up for takes...........

Oooohh you are predicting what freebie given by Maxis after 12-months...

I can't use Umobile sim in Maxis E173 USB dongle (RM18 per month package). Is it locked to Maxis SIM only ?

Those E173 from Maxis is SIM-locked... can be unlocked very easily.

I have that code too but when I open the celcom broadband manager it just shows
“only the specified sim/usim card can be used on the device”
It does not shows the windows to enter the unlock code.

Why not use the plain vanilla Huawei Mobile Partner ?

This is my friends modem, they want my help to unlock it.
But, when I got this modem it just show no more unlock attempt.
Maybe someone just tried to unlock it before me and with the wrong code.
So, this means that this modem cannot be unlocked anymore?

Too bad... no wonder your friend pass to you
