IMEI: xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Phone ID: W850
Region: HUTCH_1
CDA: CDA102677/2 R5A
Firmware Version: R1ED001
EROM: R3A016

i used xs++ to get this information...simox tut says I should use SETool2 Lite where can I get this from?

regards
robust

---edit---
downloaded SETool2 Lite v1.11 its 65.7mb compressed rar file is that correct version? the setool2 lite.exe keeps getting picked up by avg as a virus....


---edit2---
In XS++ V3.1 I clicked on GDFS in the configurations panel then Backup GDFS which created a 97KB file called (W850_xxxxxx_GDFS_BACKUP.bin) on my pc.

Can I use XS++ V3.1 to do the rest of the steps if so how can I do this?

---edit3---

I downloaded (SETool2 Lite v1.10) then used the (SETool2 Lite v1.11 update) file to update the app. I now have v1.11 working fine, I have made a backup of the GDFS using this app.

As the phone is a DB2020 CID49 im a little confused on how I should proceed...

"DB2020: These phones can only be patched if the CID is 52. You can upgrade to CID52 if necessary."

When I connect the phone via xs++ it does give me an option to upgrade to CID 52...I will wait untill someone can confirm that I should go ahead with the CID upgrade.

Appreciate any help guys.:)

Upgrade the CID to 52 with XS++, and then follow step by step the tutorial in first post of this thread(DB2020 CID52 section).

EROM CID: 52

2. In Windows Explorer drag (Windows drag and drop operation) the MAIN firmware (*.mbn)

What is the MAIN firmware? How do I get it?

Once I get the mbn file all I do is drag and drop the mbn file on top of the qamaker.exe file?

Thanks once again for your great patch and help:)

EROM CID: 52

OK, now your phone can be patched.

What is the MAIN firmware? How do I get it?

You will get the answer if you read the SonyEricsson Hardware and Firmware. You need the W850_R1ED001_MAIN_GENERIC_CY_RED52.mbn MAIN firmware(search for it)

Once I get the mbn file all I do is drag and drop the mbn file on top of the qamaker.exe file?

Exactly, and then follow the next steps...

Hi thanks again

Ive just searched the site and have downloaded W850_R1ED001_MAIN_GENERIC_CY_RED52.mbn


I also found a comment from yourself Unlocking W850i [Firmware Version: R1ED001] - Top Sony Forums

"My advice is, DO NOT use the W850_R1ED001_MAIN_GENERIC_CY_RED52.mbn, because it is corrupted, and you will brick your phone. Here is a thread about this problem: SIMLockPatchGen Error!!

Use instead W850_R1KG001_MAIN_GENERIC_CY_RED52.mbn for e.g."

Does that also apply to me which one should I use?

Also I wondering if I could make my own from my phone as it is on 3 ntwork(uk) with all the settings for planet3 site(checks talk time I have left)
