You can flash it down to version 3.05 then unlock. It works but for some reason(maybe I'm missing something here), after I flashed it, on the screen it shows all funny munbers and crosses. I did a factory reset and also tried to flash it back to version 4.03 but all the funny munbers and crosses are still there.

I had unlocked 1600 with JAF and I did not have any problems.I had also used UFS calculator in the past and it had worked at some of them(but not all because you have to know exactly the country and the network in wich the phone is locked)
