In the UK you need the right software and cable to unlock it.
Save ya time and get it unlocked in a shop! Believe me you'll spend hours trying to find a solution, and get no where. I'm not being negative, just realistic.
And only noobs post their phone's personal info on general forums.
I agree.I have wasted ALOT of time on this and it simply cannot be done.Having it unlocked at your nearest shop for 10 is the only way.It will also save you from a mental breakdown
W300i Unlocking may be difficult, but not impossible to do yourself, as many here seem to believe!
I stumbled on it after many hours work after "killing" my wifes w300i, leaving it with the "configuration error" screen!
The software is all FREE if you "google" for it.
Software needed:
setool2lite
SIMLockPatchGen
I also used "Far Manager" to de-brand, but i dont think it's necessary
(see here:
http://restlessobsessive.blogspot.com/20...alkthrough.html ) GIVE THIS A GOOD READ FIRST!!!!
Basically you'll need to find out what FIRMWARE you have in your phone,"google" for it, then use the patch program above to vreate a simlock removal patch, then put both the "main" firmware(this in the "main" box) and the patch file you created in the "misc" box and "flash" !! That's it, worked a treat for me folks, nothing else did!!
I have just used the information posted by justgone and it worked a treat. Takes a bit of wading through the information and getting it right, but it is well worth the wait. Phone is now unlocked and I removed the branding, working fine without any problems. So thank you justgone for taking the time and trouble posting this information for us, certainly saved me lots of wasted hours on research and frustration.
