Do Fido SIM cards work with the 711 Speakout Nokia C3? The last phone I bought, Nokia 5130, only worked with Rogers and Speakout SIM cards, and not Fido SIM cards.

The C3 should work. I think Rogers has only recently quit locking phones out of their own network. I do not know if that is model phone specific or not though. In any case, your Speakout C3 should work with FIDO SIM cards.

Just insert a Fido SIM and see if it is asking for any message. If it doesnt ask it should work in your mobile.

No it didn't work for me! (i.e. Speakout C3 with Fido SIM)

That's why I participated in the discussion with C3 unlocking in another thread. I tried to purchase unlock codes from a few different suppliers online and got a "NO CODE FOUND" response (and subsequent refund) from each of them. I ended up trading my Speakout C3 with a colleague who has a Rogers C3, then purchased unlock code (apparently Rogers and Chatr C3's have unlock codes in databases accessible by unlock code suppliers).
