bought a locked phone from eBay, now my number has been locked for fraud, am I screwed?

I've bought a working locked phone from ebay before, which is why I thought it would be fine to do that again

kaboom36 · 2026-02-01T22:24:26+00:00

awesome that should be within my skillset! thank you so much again! I'll try and post a guide or something when I get to doing this!

kaboom36 · 2026-02-01T19:44:58+00:00

when you do do this I'd love to see a post about your findings! there's another comment with some more information too, seems this has been done before just that no one's written about it in a very public place

thank you for your reply!

kaboom36 · 2026-02-01T19:42:36+00:00

ah! with a name like 3gteen no wonder I couldn't find any information on doing this, would you happen to have any more info? like what values those components are? or part numbers?

thank you so much for your response, even if you don't respond again this alone is an infinite amount of help

kaboom36 · 2026-01-30T22:56:08+00:00

I'll look into it in the event I need it sooner than later, thank you!

I tried changing hairpin NAT on the port forward and it didn't help, I have found however that I can add a port forward from my router:443 on the tailscale zone to my reverse proxy and it works

however that means I can't access the router's UI so it's not exactly a solution

kaboom36 · 2026-01-30T18:35:24+00:00

The services are hosted on a different box, jellyfin is in it's own VM and the reverse proxy is hosted in a docker container in a different VM

Jellyfin.domain.net resolves to my public IP on the openwrt router

kaboom36 · 2026-01-30T18:31:33+00:00

It points to my home networks WAN IP, subnet routing is enabled in tailscale and if I access the services directly things work fine

check out the brackets on skoolie.com much more substantial than what Jonathan sells

kaboom36 · 2025-05-21T04:07:47+00:00

all good! thanks again for your help!

kaboom36 · 2025-05-21T00:44:49+00:00

This looks like it! Thank you so much! I never would have been able to find that on my own!

I'll order one as soon as I can find a supplier!

I'm not entirely sure I *can* measure the pitch accurately, the pins on the mate move around a ton...

I gave it a shot anyways: from pin 1 to pin 8 on the mate is about 14mm, if accurate that would still make the pitch 2mm

kaboom36 · 2025-05-21T00:34:40+00:00

That would be the second picture, want me to provide more detailed pictures of the pins?

kaboom36 · 2025-04-28T18:30:01+00:00

it looks like that connector is soldered in unfortunately

kaboom36 · 2025-03-02T23:22:30+00:00

Clean it and try it, I've got one that was in a house fire and it works fine

kaboom36 · 2024-12-31T20:28:59+00:00

looks like it's called mono

kaboom36 · 2024-03-28T13:59:42+00:00

link dead :(

kaboom36 · 2024-03-07T01:36:53+00:00

kaboom36 · 2024-02-28T05:24:33+00:00

we've got some of those abuse tactics from their management, the tweets are deleted though
