Search this forum on 803T you will get free software to unlock this.
I know about the software I've got it now, basically i wanted to know if this phone can be used in here in australia once unlocked?? I do have the software to unlock it but i dont have the usb cable for this phone, so i dont if its worth to spend the money and purchase a cable to unlock the phone only to find later on the phone can't be used here....

This can be used in Australia for sure! you need a nec8 cable to do this.
what about a usb gx30 cable??
This is the cable I am talking about:

OK ....please anyone help me out here:
To unlock a Toshiba 803, Do I need a GX30 USB cable OR a N8-NEC cable??????? Please help I am confused...
It's similar... maybe need a small modification, schematic is somewhere in the forum.
btw where are you from?

First post!
hey thanks dejo....Im in Quinns Rocks....the problem I am facing is that the N8-NEC cable I can get from an ebay UK supplier but apparently doesn't post overseas cause he hasn't replied to my questions; the GX30 cable its much easier to get, well I have found more people selling it on ebay, very very cheap cable, well I'll use it only once and thats it.....Thanks for your help I will hunt down the schematics, and do the mod if I can.....
No worries, just look at "Sharp GX25 unlock cable" schematic (no flash cable, it is different)
So basically this is what I understand:
1. buy the gx30 cable and do a modification to unlock the toshiba 803.
2. The mod you mentioned before, is it this one??:first post

GX15-GX17-GX25:
only USB cable,not COM.for data and unlock use sipmle original USB cable.
FOR FLASH YOU NEED NEC 3G CABLE OR USB CABLE WITH CHARGING FUNCTION(see pic1).
caution:usually you can't use flash cable for unlock.
This mean you can use GX30 USB DATA cable without mod ;) it's same
OK thanks dejo, I'll get it from ebay...hope it all goes well
