Want to unlock your very own Xperia™ arc smartphone? Are you ready with your guesses for the four-digit secret code nto unlock an Xperia arc smartphone? There’s one to win every four days. So get cracking!

HOW TO WIN:
There are ten Xperia™ arcs to give away, each with a secret code. Crack the code before anyone else and we'll send you the phone. Here's how it works:

1. Guess the secret code
Enter a four-digit number to try to guess the code. If you get it right, you win the phone. It's that easy. You can guess as many times as you like between 8am and 8pm daily. But you can only have one guess in the queue at any one time.

2. Four days to get it right
If no one cracks the code on the first day, we'll reveal a digit a day to help you out (we're nice like that).

3. Ten phones to win
We have ten phones to give away in forty days. But if you all work together, it could be a lot quicker. So don't forget to invite your mates to help you out, and Like us below to get clues.
_____________________________________________________
"UNLOCK XPERIA FACEBOOK" PROMOTION

2.Entry is only open to Australian residents aged 18 years or over.

3.Employees (and their immediate families) of the Promoter and agencies associated with this promotion are ineligible to enter. Immediate family means any of the following: spouse, ex-spouse, de-facto spouse, child or step-child (whether natural or by adoption), parent, step-parent, grandparent, step-grandparent, uncle, aunt, niece, nephew, brother, sister, step-brother, step-sister or 1st cousin.

4.To be eligible to enter individuals must complete the following steps during the promotion period:
(a)visit the Sony Ericsson Australia Facebook Page (www.facebook.com/sonyericssonau); and
(b)become a fan of the page by clicking the ‘like’ button (if not already a fan).

5.To enter, individuals must then:
(i)click the Unlock Xperia Crack the Code application on the Sony Ericsson Australia Facebook Page;
(ii)input the requested details including their full name, last name and valid email address (phone number is optional);
(iii)read and accept the Terms and Conditions for the promotion by clicking the relevant box; and
(iv)enter any four digit code on the Sony Ericsson digital keypad to attempt to unlock the phone; and
(v)click the ‘submit and finish’ button.

6.If a valid entrant successfully unlocks the phone they will receive a congratulatory message letting them know they have won an Xperia arc mobile handset valued at $669. They will also be contacted via email to advise them that they have won. If an entrant’s code does not unlock the handset they will receive a message stating that their guess is incorrect.

7.The Promoter will change the code required to unlock the digital Sony Ericsson phone (“Winning Code”) ten (10) times during the promotion. Each Winning Code will be able to unlock the digital phone on the Facebook Page for a maximum of four (4) days, subject to clause 8. After four (4) days have lapsed a new Winning Code will be required to unlock the digital Sony Ericsson phone.

8.Once a Winning Code is played by a valid entrant, the game will no longer be able to be played for that day. A new Winning Code will be applied to the digital phone in the Sony Ericsson Unlock the Phone application the following day.

9.The promotion starts on 22/11/11 and the latest it will end is at 8pm AEDST on 31/12/11. The promotion will be available between 8am AEDST and 8pm AEDST each day of the promotion period, subject to the above.

10.If a phone is not unlocked by the second day of it being on the Sony Ericsson Unlock the Phone application, the first digit of the 4 digit winning code will be revealed to entrants via a Sony Ericsson Australia Facebook wall post. If a phone has not been unlocked by the third day of it being on the Sony Ericsson Unlock the Phone application, the second digit of the 4 digit winning code will be revealed to entrants via a Sony Ericsson Australia Facebook wall post. Finally, if the phone has not been unlocked by the fourth day of it being on the Sony Ericsson Unlock the Phone application, the third digit of the 4 digit winning code will be revealed to entrants via a Sony Ericsson Australia Facebook wall post.

11.The Promoter reserves the right, at any time, to verify the validity of entries and entrants (including an entrant’s identity, age and place of residence) and to disqualify any entrant who submits an entry that is not in accordance with these Terms and Conditions or who tampers with the entry process. Errors and omissions may be accepted at the Promoter's discretion. Failure by the Promoter to enforce any of its rights at any stage does not constitute a waiver of those rights.

12.In the event that no entrants have been able to correctly guess the Winning Code after four days of the code being applied to the phone in the game application, the applicable prize will be deemed un-won. The un-won prize will be given to the entrant with the code closest to the Winning Code (e.g. if Winning Code is 1234, and an entrant guesses 1235, they will be deemed the winner of the un-won prize). If two or more entrants are equally close to the Winning Code (e.g. one entrant submits the code 1235 and another submits the code 1233, and the Winning Code is 1234), then the entrant who submits their tied entry first will be deemed the winner of the un-won prize.

13.Incomplete or indecipherable entries will be deemed invalid.

14.Multiple attempts at guessing the winning code is permitted per person.

15.If there is a dispute as to the identity of an entrant, the Promoter reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to determine the identity of the entrant.

16.On submission of an entry, an entrant will need to wait until the digital hand manually enters the code they have entered on the digital keypad, before being notified if they are a winner or not. Entrants will be placed in a queue if there are too many entrants entering at the one time. They will only be notified of winning/not winning once the hand has played out the code they entered. The entrant may at the time of entry select to be notified via email when their guess is coming up. If they do so, they will be notified via email when there are approximately 10 guesses remaining before their guess will be played out. If an entrant’s guess is correct, they will be notified via email.

17.The Promoter’s decision is final and no correspondence will be entered into.

18.Each valid entrant who is the first to validly enter a Winning Code will win a Sony Ericsson Xperia mobile handset valued at $669. There are ten (10) prizes to be won in total throughout the promotion, one for each Winning Code that is applied to the digital phone in the game application.

19.Mobile phone prize is a handset only. The winners will be responsible for making all arrangements for connection with a service provider and payment of all associated connection, access and call charges.

20.All winners will have their names published in The Australian newspaper on 9/1/12.

21.If for any reason a winner does not take a prize then the prize will be forfeited.

22.If any prize is unavailable, the Promoter, in its discretion, reserves the right to substitute the prize with a prize to the equal value and/or specification, subject to any written directions from a
regulatory authority.

23.Total prize pool value is $6,690.

24.Prizes are not transferable or exchangeable and cannot be taken as cash.

25.Entrants consent to the Promoter using their name, likeness, image and/or voice in the event they are a winner (including photograph, film and/or recording of the same) in any media for an unlimited period without remuneration for the purpose of promoting this promotion (including any outcome), and promoting any products manufactured, distributed and/or supplied by the Promoter.

29.Nothing in these Terms and Conditions limits, excludes or modifies or purports to limit, exclude or modify the statutory consumer guarantees as provided under the Competition and Consumer Act, as well as any other implied warranties under the ASIC Act or similar consumer protection laws in the States and Territories of Australia (“Non-Excludable Guarantees”). Except for any liability that cannot by law be excluded, including the Non-Excludable Guarantees, the Promoter (including its respective officers, employees and agents) excludes all liability (including negligence), for any personal injury; or any loss or damage (including loss of opportunity); whether direct, indirect, special or consequential, arising in any way out of the promotion.

I notice it does tell you if your guess has already been played.

There have been about 5000 guesses so far our of 9,999 combinations, so every wrong guess is improving the chances to win.

In fact, they are giving away 10, so with 9 left (one has been won) there is a 9/5000 chance or about 1/555 chance of getting a prize at the moment

Thanks JRN, love statistics but am way too lazy to work out the odds.  You are a star!

Odds have improved to around 1/200 per guess given 8154 guesses so far and still 9 handsets to give away.  (and it will not let you enter with a number that has already been entered)

Someone asked this : "Quick question SonyEA: When the new code was picked, was the cache of the previous guesses cleared so that guesses for the previous phone can be entered again? Or is it guaranteed that the new code is within the unguessed values from the previous phone?"

Sony's answer: "all previous guesses for the first phone can be re-entered again for each new handset. So one of the guesses you guessed for the first Xperia arc, could be the winner this time. I said COULD Smile"

Fair enough, so the odds reset each time to 1/9999 (then reduce as guesses are used up)

Maybe I'll do something more important instead...
