hi, thanks for the reply.

i have an orange spv e200. i have managed to get it off the smart rom and back to the newest orange rom i could find, 2.5.7.7.1 or something after a lot of trawling through this great forum.

however, i used the imei check software a few months ago and its saying the phone is locked and iv tryed to unlock it 5 times using the wrong code. my fault i supose as i didnt read the instructions correctly in my haste!!

i really really dont want to have to go back to imei-check and pay them £20 for taking off the block that they thought would be funny to put on my phone in the first place just because a new person to the spv was a little hastey and dare i say foolish!!

so is there anyway of taking that lock off? im not bothered about removing the sim lock (which is what i set out to do in the first place by messing about with various roms etc) i just want to be able to use my e200 again??!

many thanks
man still with paper weight ha ha

I've got a Smart Phone (locked to Smart Network here in the Philippines) it has a bootloader ver. 1.09 and ROM (from smart net) 1.7 . . .

Here's the question . . .
I want to SIM unlock my phone . . .

There is a new spvunlock2 . . . so do I still need to downgrade my bootloader or I can use the new spvunlock2 to get the unlock code?

and where can I get a ROM to sim unlock this phone? "quote



this is the same software as mine (phillipines smart) that i cant get rid of.

anybody know how to go back to uk orange please?

iv searched and searched this forum with no luck!

many thanks

hi all, im a bit stuffed i think but ill ask anyway.

i was messing about a while ago with different rom updates, i then tried to use imei-check to unlock my phone, i didnt notice the bit that said you have to pay, i was in a rush.

now all i get is "unlock code? you have entered 5 times, please wait............."

so i thought id try update the rom with the uk one.

NOPE!!! wont work, incorrect image for your phone!

iv tried every rom update i can find but none are compatible.
the update thats on now is smart amazing phone or something, iv lost the origional link i found this update on and it was a while back now anyway.

so my question is this, is there a way to completely erase the bootloader image etc so i can do a complete install. i.e format, clean install?

ive already gone into bootloader and erased everything / hard reset but its still no use.

i cant use my phone!!!!!!!!

please help??!
cheers
