Patching CID53 (DB2020) and any CID (DB2010,DB2012)

[maximenis]

Hi i am trying to unlock a w880i that is locked to t mobile, at the point where you have to turn the phone on and run the executor file, from the file menu, i assume i will need a t-mobile simcard, as i cannot access file manager/games without a sim or with a different sim, please can anyone tell me if my assumption is correct. Thanks

By the way great site have been reading for 3 days solid.

You can't complete the process without a sim card, otherwise the phone will only allow you to go into demo mode.
