Re: General Information about Patch-Unlocking (start here if you want to unlock)
Unlocking DB2020 CID53 for FREE requires a sim card that the phone is locked to. If you have such a sim card and you can open the phone then you need to follow the Anycid procedure and use executor to break in, add the qapatch and unlock patch.
If you have no such sim card then I'm afraid it's a paid unlock only.
EDIT: You said you managed to apply some patches. I'd like to know how if you're asking if you can do it with XS?? Patching DB2020 CID53 can only be done with JDFlasher.
Re: General Information about Patch-Unlocking (start here if you want to unlock)
I applied patches before upgrading to CID53 ... after doing my stuff I figured SEUS could not do harm if I used it , but it was bad ...
I have a SIM card to open the phone and use files/etc ...
i'm going to try and use the anycid procedure ... it seems pretty hard though :( i hope i don't brick my phone ...
Re: General Information about Patch-Unlocking (start here if you want to unlock)
Yes, I'm afraid in modding terms, using SEUS on on a CID52 DB2020 is a bad idea. It will always update the CID to 53.
The anycid procedure is simple enough provided you follow it carefully. Make sure you flash a firmware that there is an executor.b file for.

No. Patch unlock on A2 makes no sense as patch needs to be written to cxc which needs brown anyway!!! There is NO FREE method to unlock A2 phones.

It should answer the questions that are asked frequently on the forum.
All the the information you need is here on the forum but many users post questions that have been answered very often before even starting to read. I hope this thread will make it a bit easiers for all the beginners out there, have fun ;)
The first thing you need to find out about your phone is it's
DB and
CID.
Connect your phone to XS++ to find out it's
CID and
DB:
http://www.topsony.com/forum/attachm...1&d=1202746882
Important: The EROM CID ("Flash CID" in SE Tool) is the one that matters!
Don't get confused about the OTP CID.
DB2010/12: These phones can be patched up to CID49. There's no free solution for patching those phones if the CID is higher than CID49. CID can't be downgraded!
DB2020: These phones can only be patched if the CID is 52. You can upgrade to CID52 if necessary.
DB3150: These phones can't be patched for free yet (in fact they can't even be flashed for free at the moment).
You can create an unlocking patch with simox "Remove sim-lock patch generator".
There's also a tutorial on how to upload the patch to your phone:

my phone matches those parameters but I cannot get it to let go of the network loc, can you give me a hand my thread is here: Howto unlock a SE W580i
