---

create a file: start.txt in directory with qamaker.exe, edit file and type:

Code:

---

quamaker.exe "location of file\file.mbn"

---

'location of file' is you real file location
'file.mbn' is your file name
Change file extension to: start.bat, and run it. You will find your patch in VKP folder.

i don't have a VKP folder.... :s

can anyone say where i can find this folder...

There isn't any vkp folder. You should get a quick_access_XXXX_XXXXXXX.vkp file (where XXXX_XXXXXXX is the phone name and firmware version) in the folder where the qamaker.exe residers.

i've tried many times, but i don't get such a *.vkp file :s

Then search for it on your hard drive(s). In search box type: quick_access_*.vkp
You should find it.

He doesn't find the file.
Is the main firmware that file that's ends on .bin? (the one you have to make in the beginning of the tut.?

What exactly is the name of your MAIN and what format is it?

I think i'ts is this:

Code:

---

gdfs_35960001031865.bin

---

That is a GDFS backup, but you need a MAIN firmware. So download a proper MAIN firmware and try again. If you don't know what to download, then post an identify log...

As long as it's not CID53, yes, you can.

hi everyone, i must confess that it is quite possible, that my level of stupidity doesn't allow me to patch my w880 correctly. still, i would like to get this thing working and unlock it..

Is it necessary to hold the 2 Button the whole time while flashing it? (Step I - 6. according to simox tutorial) I am asking because nothing happens (i waited 30 minutes..), not with the phone nor with setool.

ok, i guess that i have found a possible troubleshoot: in the patch generator it said that CID is 52, now when i run setool it says 51. is it possible to patch 51's or do i have to convert it to 52? (if yes, how do i do this? :?)


___________________________________________

Ok, i crossread through some posts, and know now that i can't flash cid 51. so i tried to convert it to 52.

tried with DB2020_CID49_51_to_CID52.txt -> unsupported combination
tried with DB2020_CID49_51_to_CID52_OLD.txt ->


ChipID:9900,EMP protocol:0301

how can i tell what my cid number is? and what is the difference between a brown phone and a red phone?

Read here: SonyEricsson Hardware and Firmware Definitions!

I was not able to patch my K550 it seems its completly blocked by default by my company, what a shame! Darned, so I sold it. thanks to all concerned!

first off: thanks a lot simox for the quick response.
everything went well until the last step. as you write "3. Tick Use "quick access" patch checkbox" - my set v1.10 doesn't seem to have that checkbox? or are you talking about "quick_access_XYYY_R8BA024.vkp" (which i dl'ed somewhere!?)?

i am receiving this status:

Starting to process VKP patch script: G:\SIMLockPatchGen\vkp\Remove_SIM_lock_W880_R8BA02 4.vkp
VKP script loaded OK. Lines: 6

You are trying to put wrong .vkp to your phone (your phone have R1JC002 firmware,but you try to put .vkp for R8BA024)

weird, i performed all steps with the raba024.mbn and now it's r1jc002? anyways..i will try it.

okay it doesn't work, most probably coz i did it with the wrong firmware. i will flash it tomorrow with the r1jc002 firmware and then post whether it works or not.

it doesn't work. i flashed it with the r1jc002 mbn, it went well until i wanted to apply the patch (like before).
embedded bootloader -> embedded flashloader not responds!

the phone gets recognized as database and is booting and the display showing the usb-instructions. what do i need to do?

It is probably a driver problem. First reinstall the USB Flash Driver what comes with SETool2 Lite v1.11(it is important to use that driver). If the problem persists, then clean the phone's port, and the cable connectors. Also you can try other USB ports on your PC (without any hub).

Hrmpf, it does not work. I have tried all my USB Ports, the Cables are factory brand new. I am close to despair..:(:confused:
I will delete ggsemc.sys and ggflt.sys and try whether the automatic recognition works. still, i've tried it with the automatic mode but it wouldn't recognize the drivers.

damn i was so close :rolleyes:

_____
Don't get me wrong, I've read the usb flash installation guide..

Whatever I do, it makes no difference. Is there a Possibility to delete the Phone as Device from my PC System, causing the PC to recognize it as a new device and having to read and install the USB Flash Drivers from SETool aside from simply deleting the both files mentioned above?
I am asking because this is the onliest way of solving this issue i can figure out right now.

Follow the USB Flash Drive installation guide using the driver what comes with SETool2 Lite v1.11. The driver path is [SETool2 Lite v1.11]\drivers\USBFlash_driver\

Windows is persisting in use of the M$ driver (usbstor.sys) although i have performed the steps in the tutorial correctly. I have tried it on a different PC, and it didn't work either. I am sure that I have the correct files (r1jc002), the flashing went well, the branding is gone. It is simply all about the Patch..i don't know what I am doing wrong :(

Then try jdflasher to apply the patches instead of SETool2 Lite.

Can you do a tutorial on removing DB2000 CID49 please or is it the same process as the DB2010 and DB2020 tutorials.

Cheers

Hey, ive had a bit of a problem with setool2 and sim lock patch generator, ive used it 3 times before and its worked.. But yesterday i flashed my phone and it relocked my unlocked phone so i cant put my sim in it. I tried patch unlock and it said:

Starting to process VKP patch script: D:\Phone\Software\SIMLockPatchGen\vkp\Remove_SIM_l ock_K800_R8BF003.vkp
VKP script loaded OK. Lines: 6

now when i try and use setool2 to try again the phone keeps turning on while im holding C and connecting it! what can i do solve both of these issues.
thanks in advance
