Sorry for not attaching the log as requested. I pasted all the logs in a document file and forgot to save it. But, will attach it tomorrow as I’ll have to do the entire process again as I’m still unsuccessful in removing the configuration error.

Referring to the problem: I think you’ll need to guide me with the sequence of operation for debranding and then unlocking. I’ll share the different options I’ve tried and possibly you could find my mistake or suggest me better options.

1. Initially, I debranded my AT&T W580i Sony Ericsson phone. The Main, FS and custom packs were selected as suggested and you have acknowledged the same.
2. Flashing was successful, so I started customization using FSX. As I got a Command Error previously, I removed my memory card this time and FSX was successful.
3. Network was locked as expected, hence, used Setool2lite v1.11 to unlock the phone. It Flashed the main area again and unlocked my phone successfully, but when I insert my Sim, I receive a configuration error “Contact Service centre or network provider.”


I tried the following options to get my phone working depending on the various posts with reference to debranding and unlocking:

1. I debranded my phone again using XS++ v3.1 and tried writing only the unlocking SCRIPT using Setool2lite. But, the Setool2lite fails at embedding bootloader.
2. I followed the normal Setool2lite procedure and successfully unlocked the phone. So, I connected the phone to XS++ and found that the custpack was erased while unlocking using Setool2lite.
3. Hence, I flashed only the FS using XS++ after unlocking the phone and added the custpack using FSX. The phone was unlocked and all the Main, FS & custpack were loaded, but, still the configuration error.
4. I think I should try the America_1 FS and custpack available at some anro**.com and hope it works.
5. Else, I should modify the configure.xml file in the custpack by contacting my network service provider. I hope they’ll help me with some details.
6. I’ve used the Phone locks option in XS++ GDFS area which says that the phone locks for DB2020 has been reset to 0000. I’m still unsure about what this means.

Sorry, for the long post without a log. Please help!!

Well I Cant Help Without Logs. Heres A Noob Answer Which Might Help You. In FSX, Browse To /tpa/preset/custom And Paste The Custom Files (Around 10 Files) In The Pack To The Folder. Well Please Post Your XS++ Log And Also Upload Your customize.xml File So I Can Help You Out.

Thanks buddy,
The final solution was a life saver. I extracted all the customization files and here I am using the phone. It's cool & as we call it zhakaas. I think after using all this so many times, even I'll be able to help others with XS++ and Setool2lite.

My observations if helpful to other are:
1. Remove memory card also.
2. If you wanna debrand as well as unlock, you debrand first, then unlock and then use XS++ to flash FS only and customize with extracted files.
3. Chao you're done.

ENJOY!!!!;)

hello, i really wanted to flash my p990i but I cannot find any firmware that i can use. I surf the internet, use google but i have no luck to find one. I found 2 firmware fir p990i in the download section but i need to pay or wait for 2 months before i can download it..is there any site where i can download a firmware for my phone directly?

I don't want to use SEUS update because i have a very poor connection with a download speed of 13kb/sec,

thanks.

Pay For It. Its Only 3 Euro's. You Wont Find A Better Place For Firmwares Than TopSony:)

Hello, first time poster here with a problem. So when I connect my phone to the computer, holding C and inserting the cable, the log goes like this:

And it gets stuck there. Any suggestions? I'm using a w810i, btw.

Can you tell more informations, such as model, firmware version, cid, about your phone?
And check the sticky thread that shows the common errors.

The model is Sony Ericsson W810i. Dunno about the others.

Tried connect with setool lite and copy here your phones log.

Nice day

Can I flash K310 with XS++ 3.1?
