I'm getting a bit worried lol...

A m8 gave me a N*kia 3330e V4.30 on Or*nge to unlock, I know that particular one is difficult and I don't own a Serial Mbus data cable required to use N*kia tool.

So I flashed it with a 4.30 file (Fiddling about as I do) and it accepted my Ce**net SIM, the problem is that there is now no network coverage, not even with it's original Or*nge SIM and I had already deleted the backup 'flashout' file <img src="eek.gif" border="0">

So if anyone could read the flash from 00200000 to 002A0000 from their Provider locked 3330e V4.30 Or*nge phone and send it to me...Well, if it works it would be gr8 <img src="smile.gif" border="0">

Of course other working sugestions are welcome also <img src="biggrin.gif" border="0">

Unlocking the 3330e (the e just means it is an orange phone) is not straight forward. It has to be done by a 2 part flashing (this way only works for phones with 1 lock closed).<br />I`ve already posted the site where you can solve the prob.I can let you have the flash file for a 3330 ver 4.30. pm me with your email and I`ll send it over. I have also zipped the progs and partials you need to do the job I`ll email that aswell.<br />The site is: <a href="http://www.g7ecd.gasbags.net/index.htm" target="_blank">http://www.g7ecd.gasbags.net/index.htm</a><br />Need any more help just shout.

Cheers, jboy
 
Hi there jboy, I know about the two stage unlocking, the problem being that I don't have the com/data cable needed to use Nokia Tool and I can't find a diagram for it <img src="frown.gif" border="0"> Unless anyone has it that is...hint...hint <img src="smile.gif" border="0">

There are two other options I have:

1. Buy a data cable - Could someone tell me where to get it please <img src="smile.gif" border="0">

2. Flash the phone with a backup from 00200000 - 00600000 and return it back to normal, this is the other thing I don't have...the backup, and methinks it will be quite a large file <img src="frown.gif" border="0">
 
I can send you a diagram for a cable if you want, but I would reccomend you buy one. They are not that dear, you can get a full flasher set for under £20. Leave it with me and I will find a reliable, cheap supplier and let you know.<br />I can send you the full flash it`s roughly 4meg in size. Let me know what you want to do?

Cheers jboy, I have a Dejan flasher set already, I just didn't have a serial Mbus interface needed for NokiaTool.

Check your PMs <img src="smile.gif" border="0">

I'll have to get one of those Mbus converters <img src="smile.gif" border="0"> really handy for other programs <img src="wink.gif" border="0">

Got it ta <img src="smile.gif" border="0"> but what address does it start at m8 ?
 
I recieved my leads and tried the solution that is floating about...no joy though <img src="frown.gif" border="0"> It must be becaust I fiddled in the first place. I'll try this flash and let you know how I get on <img src="smile.gif" border="0">
 
Put the phone back to its original setup before you start on the 2 part flash method.
 
Lol, that full flash prevents it from accepting the Orange SIM and the Cellnet SIM, it closes all of the locks.
