@memento.
K770...GDFS_BACKUP.bin is a GDFS backup and NOT a MAIN firmware. Download a MAIN firmware for your phone. If you don't know what to download, then post an identify log, and we will tell you...
@alternativ
Your phone is brown(EROM color), and SETool2 Lite doesn't support brown phones. Use jdflasher to flash/apply patches to phone.
Can I use XS+ to flash my phones? And what is cust or custom files. Why it is used?
Yes you can , but this depend on CID of your phone(you can't flash CID53 with XS++ for now ) and CUSTPACK needed for finalization of flashing .Quote:

For people with w580i's its ok to pm me if you want to get my full unlock pack (it's free) to help reduce road blocks. I got one of the best version of setools2lite (v1.11) available for patch unlock right now, and also a fully loaded zip folder of all what you need, to have a successful firmware flash / debrand and patch unlock for your s.e w580. People with other db2020 can also pm for help if needed.
Since all the patches are already provided in the zip folder it will make going through Simox great guide even faster. You don't have to be a pro to do this unlock and it saves you time and money. Even better for some of us who don't trust anyone with our personal things.
Please note that I can't promise to help everyone unlock their phone, but I can try my best to lend a hand. Just remember to say thanks.
Be sure to back up your "GDFS" and personal files on your phone before you try any of this and ensure that you have a fully charged battery.
!!!! AND IT WOULD ALSO BE GOOD FOR YOU IF YOU AVOID TURNING ON THE PHONE BETWEEN PROCESSES AND WAIT TILL THE LAST PART WHERE THE UNLOCK PATCH IS SUCCESSFULLY APPLIED TO TURN IT ON!!!!
I advise using a sim card from another carrier when turning on the patch unlocked phone to help it load up better on unlocked networks.
Hello,
I have a question about unlocken my w800I
I used se tools lite to backup the GDFS file but i dont get any .bin file
i saw that the platform is db 2010 erom cid is 36 do i need the change it to 49?
so yes how do i do it.

Update
if i try to update by se update service the program comes with
identifcation failed
so i cant upgrade using the original SE update service
SETool2 Lite cannot patch CID36 phones, so use FAR Manager + SEFP to apply the unlock patch: Patching tutorial Farmanager . But first backup the GDFS: Backup of the GDFS with Far Manager.
Thanks for the info so far , i backed up the gdfs already but now i need the unlock patch for the w800. i looked already in the download area but i dont seem to find the right file ? i found something in this thread http://www.topsony.com/forum/showthread.php?t=10811
but i dont know if its the right one the are speaking of CID 49
is it correct that this is the right firmware W800_R1BD001_MAIN_EU_1_CA_RED36
and i make a unlockpatch with the simlockpatchgenerator and this firmware and flash that one in my W800 with far?
this what i get when click identify in SE tools

Thanks for the info, but now im a little confused.
im stil not sure which file to flash for the main firmware is it cid 49 or cid 36 and than change in the last step to cid 49 and which version is it R1AA008_RED36 or R1BC002_RED36 or R1BC002_RED49 maybe the questions are stupid but i just want to be sure.
or should i do it on a other way
Thanks anyway
@x800:
So, reflash your phone with a CID36 firmware. The W800_R1BD001_MAIN_EU_1_CA_RED36.mbn you mentioned will be OK. Also reflash the FS as well, and don't forget the custom pack. Now make an unlock patch from the MAIN firmware (W800_R1BD001_MAIN_EU_1_CA_RED36.mbn), and apply the patch.
I have the mainsoftware made a patch with sim lock patch generator
FS = W800_R1BD001_FS_EMEA_1_RED36.fbn >?
and i think the correct custompack = W800i_CDA102425_46_R1A_Orange_Netherlands
and if im correct i can flash it with main and fs and custompack with SE tools 2 lite
and apply the patch with FAR
Thanks so far

hmm... long topic, dont know if it has been discussed yet... but I managed to unlock the phone, and now I'm stuck with "configuration error. Please contact your network operator or service centre"
Phone is k800. What went wrong? just bad firmware or smth?
You didn't complete flashing- for that you need CUSTPACKQuote:

It was locked and branded by vodafone... i tried to apply different firmwares, R8BC004, R8BC003 and R8BA024... I think I succeeded the flashing, but after applying unblock patch, phone just says "configuration error".
I used xs++ for flashing, and Setool for applying patch.
With SETool2 Lite v1.11.
1. Select your phone model.
2. In Windows Explorer drag the MAIN file (.mbn) onto [SETool2 Lite v1.11 folder]\qamaker\qamaker.exe. In the qamaker's folder you will get a quick_access_XXXX_XXXXXXX.vkp file.
This Step don't work, didn't create the file
@vindi:
Upload this custom pack with XS++ or SETool2 Lite: HB1-06_Gen_CDA102568_1_R8A_GENERIC_BALTIC
@thnkv:
Well, this is a little slight information... Do you have the qamaker.exe? Also do you drag and drop the MAIN firmware(*.mbn) to qamaker.exe's icon? If yes, then you should get the quick_access_K800_R8BA024.vkp file.Quote:
This Step don't work, didn't create the file
@vindi
Just follow the instructions I gave you in the readme and the files in the zip you got from my virtual drive. You can replace my tpa with your baltic tpa but make sure you put the system folder from mine into yours and replace my fs with your baltic fs. Then everything should so be ok if you do as the readme. The unlock and quick patch is already generated for the main.

Yes. I did the same thing, but not thing was created.
I had qamaker.exe and drad and drop the firmware (main firmware (*.mbn) to qamaker.exe icon, but not thing happen.
Thanks
This is a really strange situation:confused:. Your PC is working normally? You can try to disable temporarily your antivirus/antispyware protection and try again...Quote:

well, just to let everyone know what worked for me - somehow, applying QA patch gave me errors, so finally I got my phone unlocked by installing the patch without QA, using 2020 bypass.
Thanks A lot brother. I just unlocked my first phone a SE S500i. I had some trouble with the firmware though. The SETool2lite v1.11 would not generate the quick_access_XXXX_XXXXXXX.vkp file. was giving an error in reading the R6BC200 main file. SO i found the quick_access_XXXX_XXXXXXX.vkp file online too on ********.cz. That worked fine and the fone was unlocked in 30 mins.

Reinstall the USB Flash driver, clean the phone's port and the cable connectors and try again.Quote:

OK am sorry for the OFF part :) can u plz tell me wat the hell is a custom pack?
Customization = Changing or replacing original content of the phone, like ringtones, wallpapers, icons, themes, that come with branded or unbranded phones. It's nothing more than first default configuring of the phone after flashing FS file. Usually the process is:Quote:

2. When the phone starts after flashing, it parses that xml file, puts settings written in that xml into the phone's gdfs and works out certificates (some go to Trusted certificates, some got Java certificate etc)
If you open customize.xml you can change almost any initial settings like time zone, date, internet profiles etc.
Have a nice day
Oh man, you're my god. This stuff is great. My k810i unlocked in just 3 seconds. Many thanks
RESOLVED, sorry for the problem.
To resolve, reflash main and fs WITH NEW quick_access_K800_Rxxxxxx.vkp
Then follow steps to apply simlock_remove.vkp

Your running an older version of setool2lite. Try downloading version 1.11 which is the later one, and then try it to see if that solves your patching problem. You must the quick access patch option to get your phone unlocked. Try using a different main and fs and regenrate your patches. If that's to much trouble for you, PM me and you wont regret it.
I did not get any responses... any help? XS++ wont update my phone to 52 and the SETool never goes through? What happens!
Connect your phone to xs++ 3.1 and copy here your phones log error.
Have a nice day
