Hi,

When I first plugged my k850i into my PC the computer installed drivers automatically. Are those the same drives as the 'signed k850i drivers' from davinci? Will they work for unlocking the phone? If not, how do I uninstall the drivers that Windows installed automatically and install the signed drivers from davinci?

HELP!!!

Thanks.

I am not sure about K850 but it should be the same.
There are a difference between USB Drivers and USB FLASH Drivers.

USB Drivers makes it possible to grab photos, music and such from the phone to the computer.
USB Flash drivers makes it possible to flash the phone, unlock, patch etc.

And you dont have to uninstall the first to be able to install the second, they dont interfere with eachother.
If you browse the davinci site you should be able to find flash drivers and just install them.

(Like i said i am not sure its the same for K850 like it is for K800 and K810 but my bet is that it should be)

I made it through the first step of unlocking.. does that mean my drivers are okay?

Thanks!

If the program you use for unlocking can connect with your phone through the USB then that means they are OK.
What program do you use? Some Davinci program?
