Help needed with W850i.

Hi guys, not sure if this is in the right section, if not, please repost in correct section, THANKS.

I recently bought a W850i off ebay that was white screening, but have managed to get it turning on now, trouble is, the phone needs a "CODE" to gain access to the main part of the phone.

I contacted the guy I bought the phone off, but he couldn't remember it so I'm a bit stuck here.

I connected the phone up to my SETool2 box and this is the "Identify" log;

Code:

Is there any way of removing the "CODE" so I can get the phone working?

Cheers for any help received guys.

Well good news, managed to get rid of the code needed to access the phone, and unlocked it too.

Next thing is to debrand it and get rid of the Vodafone rubbish, so if anyone has any generic firmware files for a CID53 W850i, I'll be greatful, .


Cheers.
