    Talking Unlock Codes for K550i and K850i

    I have a couple of questions... I have 3 K550i at home, so if I bought or get 1 of these codes, will it work for all the other 2, or do I have to get 1 per phone? Or is it better if I use the SE Tool? Let me know, thanks, by the way, my phones are not locked to a US Company, they are to a Non-US company, let me know,t hank you very much and if I can use the same code for the same model, can someone lend me 1 code for a K550i at least>? THANKS!

    If you buy an unlock code, it will work ONLY for that phone.
    can someone lend me 1 code for a K550i at least
    No one can give you free unlock codes. But if your EROM CID is 52 or less, it can be unlocked by patch for free.

    Re: Unlock Codes for K550i and K850i

    Okay this is the story so far... I have 2 K550i, 1 of them is mine, the other is my GF, mine was already unlocked, but my brother modded it or flashed it for fun to W610i, I dont like it, so I asked him to get it back to K550i, he said he couldnt, only way, was to copy the entire system of the K550i on my GF, the issue is hers is locked to one network, but her db is db2020, I was not able to get the CID from her phone using the code *>*<<*>* only saw the db2020 status, mine says

    R1JD001
    prgCXC1250747_GEMEROC_NA R1JD001

    EROM: R3A016
    prgCXC1250672_EROM_DB2020_LI_FOTA_SIMLOCK_FLAFLA_S IBLEY_SEMCUSB

    I am about to get hers, she will SMS it to me later on as I dont have it with me, but the true thing, the DB is 2020, where can I see the CID from this codings?

    You need XS++3.1 and flash drivers.You find all that here USB Flash Driver Installation - Guide - Top Sony Forums and here XS++ 3.1 Guide-Flashing, Customizing, Recovering - Top Sony Forums Read this 2 tutorials,gonnect phone with XS++ and post log here without IMEI number.
    After that you can unlock that phone(if is CID52) for free,or with some payed service if is CID53(because for now there is no free support tools for CID53)

    In XS++ log find this EROM CID: 49 ,don't have to be 49 , just look what EROM CID is your phone

    Every phone's unlock code is unique.

    You can try to reflash it with SEUS(Sony Ericsson Update Service). There isn't any other free tool at the moment. If it will not work, then you need to use some paid services.

    Re: Unlock Codes for K550i and K850i

    Okay guys, I am back, now I was able to Install XS and the USB Driver, was able to acquire the CID, both phones are DB2020 CID 49 and CID 51... I made the GDF backup as instructed by the tutorials, but thats as far as I got, now how do I unlock the phones, I dont want to flash them, just unlock them to their quad bands, any help on any file I need to add or option I need to choose using XS++? Thanks!

    Should I upgrade and then download this firmware??

    Top Sony Forums

    The phone needs a Generic Firmware, thats the Generic_LI, so I dont know which one I need to use, thanks.
