i just got a nokia n80, which i suspect was lost/stolen

As the owner of an N80 which was stolen and blacklisted I hope there isn't any way to unlock them. It's small comfort to think that the thief has nothing more than an expensive paperweight.

Oh, and if it was lost but you intend to keep it as your own then now it's stolen and I wish you no luck whatsoever in resolving your self-created problem. 😡

For your information, because it seems outside the fabulous world of mobile phone,your knowledge of what constitutes theft or not is quite limited not to say inexistant,
i DID not steal this phone, i picked it up and tried everything that can be reasonably expected to find the owner. This having failed what am i supposed to do? Try to make use of it. Don't jump to conclusion and judge people without any knowledge however small of the true situation.
Having said that i hope u have a lot of pleasure in watching every new phone and scrutinizing the current ones with passion and joy.
warm regards,
J.

This is true, I assume that this N80 is reasonably new and probably still under warranty and insured, if not it would still be insured under the original owners house insurance, that being the case they would have to log it with the police as being lost or stolen (especially with network operator insurance) to make a claim and therefore the police would have a record of the owner in their database.

be a nice chap and take it to the cop shop 😊...

Here, here..........you should take it to your nearest police station and let them trace the owner.

If after a given period they are unable to trace the owner, I believe that you can then claim the goods from the police and then and only then can it deemed to be yours! You know that this is the right thing to do.

What would you do if you found a car lying around outside your house for a month or two? Hotwire it and stick it in your garage, respray it and drive it about on false plates?

You know that it's not yours so hand it in.

After all this is not the right place to seek illegal advice, is it?

I know I checked for mine regularly at the police station, fortunately this wasn't too inconvenient as I work there, if you catch my drift.

Anyway, my understanding of the Theft Act is that property must be obtained dishonestly with the intention to permanently deprive the owner of it in order for it to be stolen. However, an assumption by another of the rights of the owner (for instance, trying to remove a deliberately placed block on a lost or stolen mobile phone) amounts to a dishonest appropriation even if the property has been obtained innocently in the first instance, eg, finding it. So, at the moment the finder decides to keep it as their own it becomes stolen. Then again, I may be a tad rusty after 18 years.

You'll excuse me if I'm a bit miffed as the phone you have could be the very one I've been looking for. Unlikely as that is, it does belong to someone, who is no doubt looking for it.

Dont be a fool and take it to the Police Station, and hopefully you will feel better for doing a good deed in this world of thieves, muggers, rapist's!!!

ROBNASH : no u're not rusty at all, maybe kuz the law didnt change a big deal in that area. Obviously had i done what a reasonable man would have done to try and find the owner and failed, then only would i be able to keep the lost property.
Anyway, little did i suspect that this would have sparked so many comments. I don't mind admitting that i am moved by this display of honestly, and even humanity. Having said that, i think that fate did take care of things. I was moving to another house yesterday, and someone(probably one of the hired guys) nicked the phone!!! I had to laugh at myself, and the whole irony...
I will nonetheless bear on mind all ofu guys' advice in mind.
later

Assuming you're in the uk (sorry if you're not) but if you are you need to sort out your nic mate.
It's called "theft by finding" in the uk.
Fair enough the guy kept it after finding it but to go on a forum and try to get it unlocked is taking the piss somewhat lmao

Why do you people insist on posting utter crap. You did NOT unlock your N80, the recently released software you linked to is incapable of doing it.

The BB5 calculator will theoretically generate the codes for all current bb5 phones, but you sure as hell cannot create the log files at this point in time for the N80.

When a mobile phone is stolen, the network has the ability to remotely bar and lock the device. Pretty cool eh?
