Remove SIM-lock patch generator

[simox]

SidReighn:
XS++ cannot apply patches. Use SETool2 Lite instead. The correct steps are written in first post of this thread. But first read this: General Information about Patch-Unlocking (start here if you want to unlock)

The flash themes aren't working probably because your phone is branded. First unbrand it with XS++. In tutorials and guides section you will find the tutorial.

kendo2748:
It should work with branded firmware as well, but if it doesn't works, then try to unbrand the phone first. By the way what message do you get? Insert correct SIM?

[kendo2748]

it says "phone locked" "phone lock code"

[simox]

The "phone lock" and "SIM lock" isn't the same thing...
The phone lock is a password(PIN code) what you set to protect the phone from others, or in this case from yourself :D. The SIM lock is to prevent to use other SIM card than your provider's.

So, connect your phone to XS++, click on gdfs radio button, then click on read user lock codes. Then you will get the phone lock code: 0000ffff if your PIN is 0000, or 1584ffff if your PIN is 1584 etc.

Yes after I posted my last reply I realised my stupidity and it is now unlocked, however the k800i have developed a problem, the backlight stays on while your using it from switching on but after it goes into standby the backlight does not come on through normal key pressing, and its a case of switching on and off to get the backlight back on. Is this a hardware or firmware problem.

The firmware I used during the unlock process was K800_R1JC002_MAIN_GENERIC_WI_RED52

Anybody got any ideas.?

kendo2748:
If it worked before unlocking, then probably it is a software problem. The K800_R1JC002_MAIN_GENERIC_WI_RED52 is an old firmware. Try to find some new firmware (R8xxxxx) like K800_R8BF003_MAIN_GENERIC_WI_RED52, and flash it(but just the MAIN).

clean the contact of your sim socket and the sim pad. Try another sim, it maybe damage

You can get it here in the downlods area but, at the moment you don't have access to it. Go to How to get access to Download Area? and find what you need to get access to it.
