_________ SWAT MAGAZINE ISSUE FIFTEEN: MARCH 1999 __________ / \___________________________________________/ \ / Cloning Orange Contract Fones \ / By =The-Doh-Boy= \ ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi all, here follows an article on cloning digi fones which you might like. Those of you familiar with SMS on mobile fones should be competent enough to pull this off. I'll take you through it step by step. First you need a GSM1800 fone which is connected to the Orange network. Best one to get is a second hand JustTalk. Second of all you will need an Orange contract fone which you wish to clone. Hang around airports or hotels and your bound to find some. Once you have a fone which you know is of the GSM1800 type, you can get started. Firstly get the fone number for the fone, which is usually in a menu somewhere, and write it down. mThen call 150 from the fone and order a new service like LineTwo. Then you keep the fone turned on and between 30min. to an hour later you should recieve a text message on it. Read it, then go to the menu option to send it. When that menu arrives then select it and enter the number of *YOUR* fone. Send the message and a few seconds later you should recieve the same message on *YOUR* fone. Read it, delete it, then turn your fone off and on again. Hey presto, when you look inthe "My number" menu you'll find your number has changed to the one of the other fone. You can now use the other fones account to your will. If you "borrowed" it, then make sure to return it or you wont have long before it gets dis-connected. Simple and effective....well sort of, you need to wangle past the op at Orange in order to get the order through. And you need to come by an Orange fone. If you could get an e-mail to SMS gateway then you could send all of the SIM Updates (the messages you recieve) to that and start a file up. This would make it better because you could make a program to generate SIM Updates and just plug in the services you want to have.....................................................
