well, if you make a mistake you can "disable" your phone. but most part of the time it is repairable

I want to unlock a SE W580i with firmware R8BE001. I'm locked to ATT/Cingular. I'm trying to be sure I understand what I'm doing before I get into too much trouble!

(1) If I take an R8BE001 .mbn file from the net. Drop it into SIMLockPatchGen.exe, and create a Remove_SIM_lock_W580_R8BE001.vkp. Can I then simply apply this patch to my phone??
- or -
(2) Must I first flash this downloaded .mbn file to my phone AND THEN apply the patch?

From the tutorials, I'm not clear if I can do the least disruptive action (option (1) only apply the patch).

(3) A related question... Is the .mbn file (R8BE001) already in the phone IDENTICAL to the one that I downloaded or is the one in the phone customized for my ATT phone?

Thanks...

first of all you cant use this program to patch the phone.

you must use either jdflasher + far manager or setool 2 lite.

That would explain why the "patch" function didn't work!

You actually answered a fourth question (that I didn't even ask yet). Assuming I were to use Setool_2_lite or JDflasher, can someone shed some light on questions (1), (2) and (3) from my previous post?

Thanks...

Hi to all. I have seen thet flashing CID52 phones has been very often nowadays, but many people are asking how to flash their phones and there is no such tutorial around the forum, so I decided to put one

.

First of all I would like to tell the advantage (purpose) or meaning of flashing

. Flashing the phone is procedure of putting new firmware (software) in the phone. There are many reasons to flash our phones. Firmware upgrade, solve software problems and bugs, convert our phones to some other model (most common is K800 to K810) and etc...

Flashing the firmware is done by changing the MAIN and the FS part of the firmware (while not touching the EROM and the GDFS) which makes the flashing easy procedure that can be done with the ordinal DCU60 USB cable (the cable you get with your sony ericsson phone)

.

Once we know what flashing is, we can start preparing for the flashing procedure

. To flash the phone means to change the MAIN and the FS part of the firmware, which means if you want to flash your phone with new one, you have to download it. Firmware and other stuff can be downloaded from here:

http://www.sek750i.pl
http://www.iprotebe.cz

These pages are free and registration is easy and fast.

First, download XS++ flashing program.

When you download MAIN and FS files for flashing, you need to download finalization files for your new firmware. There are MAAANY finalization files (a.k.a custom files or custpacks and etc...) sorted by the phone's firmware CDA numbers. To download the right one for you, you have to check your phone CDA. CDA can be checked from the service menu (>*
