Depending what CID?? and DB ????? ect i think you can use simox's unlock tool it is great and very easy to follow. I have just unlock my w850i

K550 is DB2020, you need to have a CID52 Phone to do unlock by Patch.
If you dont got, please use Seus (Sony Ericsson Update Service) first.
After Update you may have latest Firmware for CID52.
Now you can do unlock via Patch, by using Patch Generator and Setool2 lite 1.11.
I think instruction for that you find.
Sorry for my bad english :)
better than that, use xs++3.1 to increase cid to 52
some day you might get a cid53 phone after upgrading with the official tool alias SEUS and then will be nothing you can do
no one told you that you must first debrand your phone(flashing with generic main fs) because patch doesn't work with branded firmware or working wrong
That's truth.Quote:

Flashed firmware main with XS++ OK
Made patch with Simox patch gen. OK
Opened SEtoolLt, selected K550, ticked Bypass 2020
Put patch file in Misc, hit flash OK
first part OK, second part a window appears,
SOME PATCH VALUES DIFFERS
CONTINUE? YES NO
clicked Yes,
phone now dead :mad: again
You didn't say what MAIN you used, and what FS, customization you have on your phone.
R8BA024 main generic LI 52 used
not flashed FS yet, as phone is dead before. (downloaded central europe and europe2 as i could not find europe1)
original was R6CA001 orange generic
Thanks for the help.
When apply vkp patch put also main in the right window otherwise you get that error

Remember when you flash FS, you must finalize either using XS++ dropdown selection, or flash your own custpack.
After flashing: Main + FS + Customising file system (with K610 option as there is not one for K550)
I open SeTool and select K550 + Bypass 2020 + Use quick Patch.
Place Simox made patch on Misc Files and click Write Script.
Then i got this:
Welcome to SEtool2 ( LITE edition ) v 1.11
supported DB2010/DB2012 CID49/50/51/52, DB2020 CID49/51/52

Don't know what a smartclip is :confused:
If you want go with smartclip. I thought you'll want to continue modding your phone and with .vkp patches it can be done very easy. Whatever. Good luck tommorow. :)Quote:
