    Sooooo.... I did that first and now have CID 53. Great!!:mad:

    The Flash K800 with K810 software link is great, except that I've read the thread and people seem to be having flashing screen problems.:(

    Should I just try to get the K800 generic firmware, pay for an unlock code, or what?

    Sorry if this has already been covered but I can't decide what the right answer is :confused: and dont want to brick the phone.

    Any help appreciated.

    Cid53 phones can`t be unlock for free, so your best choice is to pay.

    You could unlock your phone when it was cid52 for free.

    Have a nice day

    The safeist way is to unbrand and unlock with some payed service and yes you should keep K800 like K800 so just look at @jasmin signature and choose one

    Re: wot can be done to k800i on 3 cid 53?

    So the best way is to unlock by code. Fair enough.

    Once this is done can I then unbrand using Farmanager and JD flash?

    I read they have an update and is now CID 53 compatible.

    Thanks again for help

    Re: wot can be done to k800i on 3 cid 53?

    Is it possible to just MOD the camera on a K800i CID53, or do I need to flash the whole phone? Which I would rather not do. If, however, it is the only way to do it, how? I can't make the above program work, and even if I do, it looks like I'll still end up with CID53 stuff on the phone, which, as far as I'm aware, you can't MOD using XS++.

    It's probably also worth mentioning that I am new to this flashing and MODding stuff, but I like a challenge.

    Thanks in advance
