    You need a file called W880_R6CA001_MAIN_ORANGE_AI_RED52.mbn(this is the MAIN firmware), and follow the instructions carefully...

    Well part good Luck :D.

    The unlocking process appears to have worked to an extent, if i put an O2 (uk) SIM card into the W880i it will allow the phone to boot up but still shows invalid sim and if i try searching networks i can select O2 but the phone just searches until i cancel it out (upto 15mins)

    do i need to add anyhting else to the process of Simox's?
