Hi,

I want to unlock (currently orange) and unbrand my W610I and could do with some pointers.

Thanks
weirdwilli
Unbranding is easy, you just flash with generic firmware, unlocking is costly but will soon be free thanks to some developer people!
weirdwilli
( if you need debranding instructions ask me on this thread ! smile.gif )
warmy
yes pelase that would be great!!!
weirdwilli
Basicly use the main from here

http://forums.se-nse.net/index.php?showtop...0flash&st=0

And then youre done!
Now to use it though if you dont know how
download XS++ V.2 or V.3
And then take out sim/memory card
and turn phone off!
then hold C and connect after clikcing connect in XS
then choose main file at the top and click flash!
If you need it more detailed just ask again! laugh.gif

Thanks for the prompt reply.

looking at that guide and it consfusing to whats applicable to my phone.

The firmware download link doesn't work.

My understanding is that I update using the sony update software and tghen use the util V++
to flash it again and that unbrands the phone?

please advise
weirdwilli
V++????
Sorry whats that
do you mean XS++?
what CID is your phone?
Because if its CID 51 then use SEUS and it'll update to CID 52 which is better basicly :]
and the nafter updating if your phone is CID 51 use this main : this main(Y)!

Not sure how do I find out the CID.

yeah i meant the XS++

ok I understand I don't need to use the SEUS but where do i get the frimware to Flash from in the first place?

Thanks
weirdwilli
the firmware was in my last post
and to check CID open XS++ click connect and plug you phone into your computer turned off with no sim/memory cards in it and then copy and paste the big box onto here! and i shall have a look for you :]

Glad to help
And for the moment the DCU-60 ( cable ) cannot unlock Db2020 phones so ours both are out of the question but soon ( hopefully within a month it will be free, also in my market in norwich they unlock phones for 10 quid coz they use a special cable( stupid people wont serve me coz im 13 sad.gif tongue.gif ) bbtyou can do that but you may aswell wait unless your desperate
warmy
