Thank you. I believe it has successfully been flashed, and debranded.

However, to my great disappointment the phone lock is still in place. I thought after flashing this thing ,it would revert things back to factory settings.

I know that through the use of SETool or XS++ the phone lock password can be revealed. But since this is now a CID53 device, neither of those programs detect the phone.
I'm not looking for a network unlock (to use on other GSM carriers, I've already got a source for that stuff), just phone unlock. Is that the same as a SIM unlock?
