Noobie requesting help with W580i

[Piets]

Hey im completely new here, and im wondering how you would go about unlocking a W580i. I have very little clue what im doing and i really dont want to brick it... i have a little experience modding PSP's if it helps in any way.. :p

Check this thread: Remove SIM-lock patch generator.
Read the first post. There is a guide about how to unlock DB2020 phones (W580 is one of them) too...

Does it matter which one i use?? weather its AMERICA_1(or2)_RED52 or like EUROPE_1(to 5)_RED52

[xulos]

yes it does matter. you must use FW that is for your region (country) for example i'm from croatia and i use S_E_europe fs and custom becaus it contain my language :D good luck

[akshayy]

language ? which do u want

see language list and choose FS

BY Default all FS have english

all i need is having it able to work in canda :confused:

Do you want to flash/debrand your phone? If yes, then use an AMERICA_1 FS and custom pack and a GENERIC MAIN firmware.
If you just want to unlock your phone, then you need a MAIN firmware what match with the firmware in your phone. Nothing more...
