Newbie questions for SPV E200

[Guest Lynswin]

I have recently got an SPV E200 and I am having some real problems getting to grips with it. I have searched this site and found many useful things but nothing that conclusively answers a couple of questions, so here they are:

First major problem is installing themes - I would like in particular to install the icandy themes but when I unzip the file to my pc I have loads of files which I don't know where to put on my smartphone or what to do with them when they are there!! I got as far as finding out where to put the cab file but when I run it, it seems to start installing but then I get the message 'installation failed because it is not digitally signed with a trusted certificate'. I am assuming that this is the 'software unlock' thing but I have emailed Orange to ask for them t unlock it - no reply- then I read that the spv e200 is already unlocked anyway!! Arrgggghhh!!

So, firstly if anyone can help with the unlock issue (if it is an issue), I would be grateful, then if anyone can tell me how I get these themes on my phone and how to use them when they are there I would be grateful for that too!!

Finally, is it possible to install animated screensavers on the spv e200? If so, again, how do I install these and activate them when they are on my phone?

Please help - I am really frustrated with this!!! LOL!

many thanks

To software unlock your phone, try here:-

To use animated home screens you need a Plug-in.. see here:-

hope this helps ;)

Hi James

Many thanks for that. I have already been on the Orange site and submitted my request 2 days ago!! Am I just being impatient or should I try doing this again?

Thanks for the link for the animated home screens but when I clicked through it says the plug in is no longer available (or something like that)!!! ](*,)

I am not having a good day!! LOL!

humm... it should work! i know some people are having problems.. there are a few things you can try.

1. try to establish a GPRS connection before you try it.

2. try your number with +44 and without.

3. try an active sync connection with internet pass-through set up.

Yes, thats cortrect, the animation plug-in is no longer about. but it should come back soon!

Anyone,

I've tried the unlocking programmes around on the net, the one I had most success with was SPVUNLOCK2C.

Everything works according to the instructions, BUT at the end of the process (after receiving the numeric code), I am not prompted to input the code!!!! Instead, the phone just starts as usual.

Could anyone explain what I'm doing wrong?????

Many thanks.

I finally managed to get the phone unlocked - I went to the url using my phone instead of my pc and did it that way - it worked!

Many thanks for your help - it is greatly appreciated

best wishes

you need to enter another network sim card...

Just to explain, we are not talking about network unlocking but application unlocking.
