A2-DB3150 Flashing

[Toen]

Hi all.

I got a w902 and i want to unbrand it and update to latest fw. I find R3EF001_RED52 (generic) but the latest FS (in swedish) is R3EA031_RED52. My phone alredy got 12067421_GENERIC_PT R3EA037 (from my operator when the phone was in for service).

Question 1 is: Do i MUST flash new fs file or fs file with the SAME number as the generic file?
Question 2 is: Do i MUST flash the custom file? I want a debrand, not reinstalling all branded crapp again.
I want, debrand and all upp to date with noting of the operator crap in it. Like faktorydefault :)

Flashed my C702 with:
C702_R3DA029_FS_NORDIC_RED52
C702_R3DA029_MAIN_GENERIC_NG_RED52

And used custpack:
C702_1208-6116_R3A_3_Sweden

Phone starts fine and all, but says "configuration error, contact operator or service center"

I suppose this is because my custpack is for operator "3" and Im on a Tele2 sim?
I cannot seem to find a custpack from tele2, would it help to unlock my phone or is is some other problem?

Ok so I've read some more and it seems as if Im using the wrong custpack? Could anybody please point me in the right direction? :)

Edit2: Nevermind, gave the same custpack another go and this time it worked :) Happy camper :)

I downloaded the A2uploader and Gordon's Gate setup. When I plug the phone into the computer, nothing happens, the A2uploader just sits idly. What am I doing wrong? I'm very new to this.

I already debranded my phone with DavinciTeam. All I'm trying to do is get back the conversation view for text messages and the phone to play youtube videos. BTW I have a sony ericsson C905a

Thanks!

Just did this to my C510 and it works fine. :)

Hello 2 all:)
Now I finally been reading all posts to look for my problem, but without luck so now I am posting my problem:
I live in Sweden, have a Black C510 operator is 3, that got "brain dead". Lost all pics, sms, contacts, did'nt recogize USIM card, lost all power in the battery and when trying to load it the phone told me to put in an origin SE batterypack (wich I of course had), so was directed to this forum and thread from Flashback and have now tried to make the brain surgery. After a number of attempts I really need sum help. Getting this log on my a2:

can't get NET header
Elapsed:511 secs.


So obviously a2 can't get NET header, wotever that is. How do I help it to get the header?
Also have some n00b questions, in the directory in 1 post it says:

6. After flashing shutdown phone, remove batery and insert it back.
7. In A2UPLOADER press FileSystem Tool. Copy custom files in to /tpa/preset/custom in your phone

My questions on this is:
1. At what point do I unplug the USB cable? Before turning off phone or after? If the phone is not visually "on" can I just unplug the cable then?
2. Do I reconnect my phone before doin step 2? And do I press any buttons (or does the probram tell me when to do those things?) Do I open any file or so on the phone or were do I put the customfile?

Maybe the last questions will be obvious when I get that far, but just want to be prepared:)

Hope for a pretty quick answer since I kinda is in middle of this and don't know if I can turn of my pc or unplug the phone without ruining everything thats been done so far.

try with a fully charged battery. after flashing MAIN and FS files, just unplug the phone, reinsert battery (but don;t switch ON yet) click on the FileSystem tool, now press c (or whatever you used before) or you can click the "..." on the Misc files and select the custom pack and then click on FLASH.

One of my problems have been that it does not work with the loading thing (dont recognize battery pack) but then I managed to figure out that my mates C905 have the same battery, so I am loading it in hes phone now. Getting back on the results when loading is finished:)
