HI,

I have copied .mbn file into qamker folder, and then i double clicked the qamaker.exe. then i pressed the enter.

according to the information on this thread, the above process should have generated a quick_access_xxxx.vpk file. but it did not make that file.

so please let me know how to generate the above .vpk file.
main firmware version is as follows,
K800_R1GB001_MAIN_GENERIC_WI_RED52.mbn.
thanks in advance

yurais:
Here is an example: suppose you have a K800 phone with R1ED001 version(K800_R1ED001_MAIN_GENERIC_WI_RED52.mbn). But you can use version R8BA024(K800_R8BA024_MAIN_GENERIC_WI_RED52.mbn) instead of R1ED001. So if you have a K800 phone then the MAIN firmware MUST BE a K800 MAIN, but the version may change. The patch version must be the same version as the MAIN what you added to SETool2 Lite. So if you add the K800_R8BA024_MAIN_GENERIC_WI_RED52.mbn to SETool2 Lite, then you need to make a patch from it. It is clear now? :)

and then i double clicked the qamaker.exe. then i pressed the enter.

No, no, no... You need to drop(Windows drag and drop operation) the mbn file to qamaker.exe, and a couple of seconds you get the quick access_XXX patch.

At the moment no.

Hi,
SImox, first all thanks for your kind help.


yes I did manage to create the quick_access_xxx file. I followed the steps,
and I got the " dialog pop-up, click "Yes" to remove the patch",
but afterwords I got a popup message saying patch is is different and whether i want to carry on.
I tried pressing yes.. and then it finished the process.

then i moved to step3, which was to write the script .
i generate the remove.. vkp file and follwed the step...
but this step failed.

i think this was because step procedure did not finis as explained in this thread.
please elp.
thanks in advance

What happened exactly? Please post the SETool2 Lite log here...
However you can try to reflash the MAIN(but only the MAIN), and start the unlocking procedure from beginning again.

thank you very much Simox, you are great. i unlocked my w580i successful.

Simox:
one question.
after unlock, each time i take out the battary and put it back, the date and time will change to 8:00pm Dec-31-1999(i did not turn on the auto-update)

Before, even i take out the battary, my w580i still can hold the memory for a certain period of time (i am not sure exactly how long, but at least 30 mins)

do you have any idea?

[pro-166]

Simox,

I think i was wrong. My w580i can not hold date and time more than 10 seconds without battary before unlock. it's same after unlock.
so it's nothing to do with your software.

I searched the web and found out Sony Errison design it this way......how stupid design.
