    Nokia Lumia 521, Unlocked?

    It seems the site I used was reputable. Sadly, they told me they couldn't unlock the device and refunded me the money. I'm out of luck with this thing, lol.

    Nokia Lumia 521, Unlocked?

    I ordered one from a site. The known respected ones wanted $40. That's ludacris. I found one for $6. I think I got scammed, but whatever. Worth a shot. Perhaps I'll try to trade it for a 520.

    Nokia Lumia 521, Unlocked?

    I never received any email from T-Mobile. I contacted them again today and they refused to unlock it. This isn't "uncarrier" behavior IMO, but I'm obviously biased.

    Hello from me!

    Heya everyone! My name is Scott (obviously) and I'm pretty new around here. I picked up a Lumia 521 on HSN as many people did. I've been lurking around trying not to post too much as I'm not very knowledgeable about this platform. I'm a 30 year old guy living in upstate NY who is a massive...

    I think Google is listening to what I want from Microsoft....

    I had a PTV 3000 that I couldn't use with my Note 2 even though it was an officially supported device. Miracast never seems to work properly for me and many others. This was an Android phone and just my personal experience, so YMMV. Sent from my HTC One using Mobile Nations mobile app

    You're probably right on the money. I can dream, though. Sent from my HTC One with MoDaCo.SWITCH Beta 8 using Mobile Nations mobile app

    What would be really nice is if Cast API could be used with Windows Phone. Sent from my HTC One with MoDaCo.SWITCH Beta 8 using Mobile Nations mobile app

    Setting up apps clarification

    I use AT&T so I have to wait for the unlock code. Sent from my HTC One using Mobile Nations mobile app

    Can I use this phone just on wifi and not activate it at all on T-Mobile?

    No idea. I bought this to learn about wp. I'm using Android as my daily driver. My three year old daughter has figured out more about this Nokia than I have. :-) Sent from my HTC One using Mobile Nations mobile app

    Setting up apps clarification

    As a lot of people like myself picked up these cheap on HSN coming from other devices, I wanted to clarify something. It should be noted my phone had no sim card and wifi was not setup. During initial setup when the setting up apps screen appears the next button is grayed out. I really wasn't...

    I did the same. You have to set up the Microsoft account after you set up wifi, but it works. Sent from my HTC One using Mobile Nations mobile app

    Nokia Lumia 521, Unlocked?

    I called Tmo last night upon receipt of my new device. I informed them the phone was purchased in full and that I am not and never have been a customer. They are sending my unlock code within 2 days and were a pleasure to deal with. If you call and ask nicely you should receive similar...

    I'm not a customer. If worse comes to worse, I have a coworker who is. Going to hope being polite and asking nicely gets me somewhere. Sent from my HTC One using Mobile Nations mobile app

    I'm really hoping Tmo just unlocks this thing for me. There's really no reason they shouldn't. Going to try and will report back. Sent from my HTC One using Mobile Nations mobile app

    Nokia Lumia 521 only $99.95 at HSN

    It's more that, in my area, getting your mail via USPS is a coin flip. Clearly not a widespread thing. Sent from my HTC One using Mobile Nations mobile app
