I should have 10 X Pro's and 10 X A15 5G coming tomorrow
@easternculture: Ahh nice, i only have 6 x pro coming
@easternculture: Why tho?
@overlook: To resell
Finally, emails are slowly being sent out with tracking numbers in them.
It's titled "[Name], your invoice is here".
Has anyone managed to unlock this for free?
I have several Optus nos. I think you can only do 1 free unlock per number (if it meets the requirements). I tried twice with the same number, first time was free, second time would have cost $25, so I used a different number.
How did you unlock it for free(for the first one), can you pls share the details/method? Thanks
I just used the amaysim sim I already had (it was one of the discounted ones in woolworths that I had bought nearly a month ago), then used the 9999 menu process (text menu to 9999 and follow the prompts) and it was a $0 unlock.
I then tried it again on another phone with the same sim, but it wanted to charge me $25, so I just used a data sim I have with optus instead, and that worked for $0 too.
Most of my numbers are through Optus or a reseller, so I had to really dig around to find a boost sim in order to make the phone prompt for the unlock code.@Fybre: Thank you so much. I have several amaysim numbers all of which have no credits but I just successfully unlocked the device for free using 1 of those numbers.
Will use other numbers to unlock the other 2 phones when they arrive.
@Fybre: Thanks Fybre, you're a legend! It worked using an amaysim Sim card I had.
@Fybre: I unlocked using Optus site. Only allowed one free unlock per amaysim phone number tho. After the first free one it wanted $25.
@Fybre: Hi, can the phone unlock without entering the code, it is still sealed. As I want make it as a gift. Thank you
@minal0211: I don't think you can because it needs a non Optus SIM inserted to the phone to prompt the unlock code mode.
@minal0211: No, code needs to be entered into the phone.
Just supply the unlock code on a piece of paper or in a card.
@Fybre: Would the unlock work if I use Coles sim (Optus carrier)? Or is it only with Amaysim?
@deal-cracker: A non optus sim to get the unlock dialog, so if coles is Optus it probably wont ask for unlock code.
@deal-cracker: You need non Optus network. I used Boost simcard.
@double_J: Thanks. Got a boost SIM card too.
@Fybre: I’m a bit confused.
I followed the 9999 prompts and got my unlock code, long number starting with 9.
Am I supposed to do something with that number to unlock the phone? Or is the phone now unlocked?
@cloudy: Pop any non-optus sim into the phone and you will be prompted to enter the unlock code.
Weird, just received an "it's coming today" notification from StarTrack despite today being a Public Holiday in Vic.
Yep I got an SMS reading its coming today as well.
Mine's on the way for delivery too. I made more than 1 order for the phone but only received one invoice and tracking number… do you think the multiple orders will come together?
All my orders arrived same time with only 1 tracking number.
Had 3 invoice emails though.Great! Is it all unlocked beforehand?
I haven't opened mine.
Appears not, 9999'd all 3 and found unkock codes for all 3, 9999'd my main phone and it said not locked with Optus.
Hmmmm…. I only received one invoice :/
Only time will tell I guess :)
I ordered 3, received 3 separate tracking emails and invoices. 1 of them arrived this morning, the other 2 have different tracking statuses (1 currently in Sydney, 1 in Melbourne)
No update since friday yet
My order was cancelled
Anyone had any luck unlocking the bootloader? I can get into fastboot and recovery, but oem unlock doesn't seem to work even with the OEM unlock toggled on from within Developer options
I'm going down your same road here :)
Good luck. I've been able to patch the boot.img but can't do anything with it until bootloader is unlocked. I'm thinking that's going to be a big issue
Any luck? I'm investigating a possible way, it requires a Linux distro though. I'm in the process of setting things up but hopefully will find out if it's successful tonight.
Sadly the bootloader can't be unlocked with this phone.
They must be using custom private keys, not the default one. We need that key to unlock the bootloader.also on the same road. I didn't realise it was going to be an issue!
Received tracking & invoice this morning and delivered today as well.
I found a cheap case on Aliexpress… US$2.47 + GST (Free Shipping over US$10 spend)
InB4 - But it's still more expensive than the phone.

This is bit cheaper
Ok I get it now, so another name for the phone is - ZTE Blade A7s 2020
I bought one of those covers in black from my link above & it's a great fit. Makes the phone look better & adds a bit of grip.
I'm kind of surprised how decent it is. Looking at the benchmarks I thought it would be absolute garbage for the basic tasks.
Youtube, web browsing, general responsiveness is pretty ok.
Agreed, also how good is a rear fingerprint reader compared to stupid in-screen. And love having a notification LED & headphonejack.
My tracking has been stuck since last Friday at the in transit to next facility. ETA was meant to be on Monday but no movement at all
Sounds like Amaysim have dispatched it and AU Post are having a delay in processing/transportation or a delay in scanning the tracking data at the next location.
Nope, confirmed with them and apparently it has been returned to sender hence why no movement
Interesting. I have the same problem. I called StarTrack and the operator said the driver could not find my address. When I asked why she said driver could not find my house number. Not sure what's going on there as I live in a quiet street and get deliveries from StarTrack all the time.
I received my invoice. Is it tax deductible?
$1 over 3 years, yes you can claim 33c per year.
Nice but aren't tax return figures rounded to the nearest dollar? 😅
You're such a stirrer!
This ia just for the haters who accused me of making up stories in original amaysim $200 promo deal
Nice, congrats, but 'how' did you manage to get 9 codes? Did you just buy x9 Sims and put it into x9 old 3g phones?
They sent them out to me.
Waiting on 3 more optus X pros and ill post another pic of them lolDid you ever post this? I enjoy seeing them
Nicely done! How much profit can you fetch for each of those if you don't mind me asking?
Roughly $200 profit each
tell us how hard you went without telling us how hard you went!
Mate that carpet needs a clean!!
Kids bruv. We have floor boards, its a rug but the boss insists
looks photoshopped.
Ordered one on Friday still not shipped yet.
Same here. Sadly waiting.
Interesting, I ordered 2. They sent 3.
Interesting indeed. I ordered 3 and they sent 2, package just arrived this morning.
Can these phones be unlocked without opening them?
No, once the unlock code is recieved, phone is still locked until the code is inputted to the phone itself.
Ahh yes. Well I’ve saved the codes and stuck them on the box. Will unlock when ready to open.
How did you get unlock codes without opening phones
@easternculture: You only need an amaysim number and the phone’s IMEI (located on the sticker on the top of the box) to get the unlock code.
FREE UNLOCK Just received the phone today, and got it unlocked for free through Optus.
Steps:
- Insert amaysim sim and setup the phone (other optus sims may works too)
- Go to Optus Device unlock page
- Enter amaysim phone number
- Enter IMEI of phone
- Shows $0 fee
- Go next and it will sms the code on the number and also show you unlock code on screen
- Insert non optus sim in phone, and enter unlock code.
NOTE: You may be able to get unlock code without opening the box. But to unlock the phone, u need to insert non-optus sim in phone and enter that code.
Thanks for sharing the steps. Very helpful!
Has anyone had success in unlocking more than 1 phone for free using the same Amaysim phone number? Or is it 1 free unlock per Amaysim number?
From my experience it has been 1 free unlock per number. Doesn't appear to be Amaysim only, just having an Optus no worked for me.

I failed with unlocking the bootloader, however it would be helpful if someone else could try, to rule this out completely.
Managed to unlock it for free so pretty happy with that for $1 phone.
I'm talking about the bootloader..
@WatchNerd: unlocking bootloader cuz he wants to root the phone/install CFW not network unlock
Picked up mine from the Post Office, staff said "enjoy your new phone!".
I responded with "how did you know?" and he said "we got stacks of the same parcels".
Arrived today. No luck with Optus website to get unlock code.
Texted unlock to 9999 and unlocked it that way.Received the phone yesterday. Turn it on and after play around for a while, I put it back in the box and pack away. It can be lend to an overseas relative later if their phone got blocked with our crappy Telcos.
Can anyone tell me whether this actually contains an Optus Prepaid SIM like it says on the phone's box? (in addition to the amaysim SIM starter pack that is included in the package). Thanks!!
The X Pro has the Optus Pre-paid Sim labeled on the box (says recharge required), while the X Sight does not. Both of them came with a $2 Amaysim Sim card.
Thanks. Is there actually an Optus SIM card in the sealed box though? I was thinking that amaysim might remove the Optus SIM before shrink wrapping, and I want to find out without opening it.
Just checked mine and it did not come with a Optus SIM. Only the Amaysim $2 starter pack which was in its own card in the delivery box, but outside of the phone box.
@Saiya: Thanks!
Finally got mine delivered. Surprisingly an 'ok' phone. I did have to do an update to it though as the Play Store kept crashing. There was 2 System Updates that it went through. After that seemed to work fine. Havent tried to unlock it yet as I do not have a SIM card that uses a different network to Optus.
Just need an optus sim to get the unlock code (can be done on any phone) and then a non-optus sim in the optus x pro to enter the unlock code.
Does anyone have unshipped orders?
2/4 of my orders still aren't shipped
1 order hasn't shipped. I doubt they will ship it, nor will they refund automatically.
Back in stock + the other Optus $1 phones.
They have now enforced the 3 device in 30 days limit.
Do they block you during the checkout process or do they cancel the order post purchase?
They block during the last step ie payment. I believe it's based on name and DOB.
Seems like these are back in stock even if the home page says its not:
Device out of stock
The device you have selected is out of stock. Please go back and select another in stock device.I may have missed the boat again :(
Wow, its in my crib
