CID53 is your problem. that guide will only work with cid52 phones and there is no way to downgrade the CID. it will need a csca unlock now which costs. take it to an independant shop and see if thay can unlock it for you dont know if this will help you also - guess the phone is going on a trip to my local unlock shop - thanks your reply |

edit: Just wanted to give a heads up on what I did to unlock my w580i, by looking at the CDA I saw that the w850 settings with APAC had the same CDA number and flashed it with that. Unplugged the usb cable, took out the battery and then re-instered it with a vodaphone sim I used last time I was in London and it booted up just fine. So if you have a w580 and get confused at not seeing the option in XS++ use the w850 as your phone and just make sure the CDA numbers match up and you should be good. |
went on and I pressed the power button on the back shell. I'm posting this tidbit of info to provide some comic relief for others.

Can someone tell me where do the firmware reside? Do we have to download them or it came with these software. For example, how can I choose K800_R8BA024_MAIN_GENERIC_WI_RED52.mbn like what the OP suggested? Thanks very much! |

DISCLAMER: If this brick`s your phone DO NOT blame me. I take NO responsibility for actions taken here, neither does anyone else.. Tutorial credits go to pugsport. This worked on my Rogers k790a, it also works on k800i, w580i, etc... Here are some quick pictures. ![]() |
