This guide enables you to use the E200 with a sim card from any network by modifying the Rom, IE the operating systems.

1. Install a zip program such as winace or winrar

2. Download the latest Update for your country from your orange site.

3. Right click on the file downloaded from the orange site and click extract to. Choose a location and extract

4. Download the file e200unlock.zip from here ->Attached File  E200Unlock.zip ( 9.09K ) Number of downloads: 2310


5. Extract the contents of that zip to the same folder as the rom you unzipped in step 3.

6. Open the folder and run the file called E200Unlock.exe. You will see window as below



7. Type ok

8. Go back to the folder you extracted the rom to in step 3 and run the file called ROMUpdateUtility.exe

Note: This will wipe your device. Back everything up including contacts etc.

This article is loosely based on a translation of the page

Also be aware this is not a full sim lock, you will lose the unlock when you reflash the rom unless you use a cracked rom file again

when you run the app to edit the rom it tells you if its successful, no other way to test other than using sim card
