Guest pcp135 Posted June 25, 2007 Report Posted June 25, 2007 I've just been trying to download the unlocking .CAB from the Orange France site and am having some problems. I go through the process of entering IMEI (I've tried the 15 digit and 17 digit versions) and phone number (with +44 and without) and other details and then it seems to hang on the page where is says the .CAB is being compiled. The page seems to refresh about every 30 seconds or so but never changes. Has anyone else been experiencing this problem or know of a way to get around it. I've tried the various other unlock methods listed on here such as the Microsoft Security Manager and Paul's unlock file however neither seems to do anything useful for my E650. I also can't get a registry editor to run on the phone because of the security so think my only chance seems to be the Orange tool unless anyone has any other ideas...

Im in exactly the same boat, ive tried every method and nothing... Also, on the francetelecom page, it doesnt recognise my IMEI as an E650, does it yours?
Guest pcp135 Posted June 25, 2007 Report Posted June 25, 2007 Also, on the francetelecom page, it doesnt recognise my IMEI as an E650, does it yours? I don't get any error messages stating tha,t however it does say on step 2 or 3 that it is unlocking "unknown" with IMEI ... - if that's what you mean. I've loaded the page from the E650 though and it recognises that its an E650 then though still no joy with the unlocking though.

When you say from the E650, do you mean literally visiting that page on your phone?
Guest pcp135 Posted June 25, 2007 Report Posted June 25, 2007 Yeah thats what i mean, unknown IMEI.... When you say from the E650, do you mean literally visiting that page on your phone? Yes exactly. Though it didn't get me any further than trying it from my desktop.
Guest pcp135 Posted June 25, 2007 Report Posted June 25, 2007 After a considerable amount of time I stumbled across a fix by Paul in another forum on here which did the job, see this thread http://www.modaco.com/SPV-E650-de-Brand-Fi...05-t255845.html It didn't work perfectly the first time but after running it I could use a registry editor to set the registry settings you'll have seen all over the place and then it seems to be app unlocked for everything I've tried and also debranded.
Guest freakency Posted June 25, 2007 Report Posted June 25, 2007 nothing for me too! you type the details into the four boxes, it says it is configuring, it reckons it will take up to a minute. 30 minutes later nothing :)
Guest freakency Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 Yeah, after nearly a week of trying the francetlelcom page seems to be working again. I am getting my unlock cab sent to me. Praying it will let me run it!
Guest freakency Posted June 26, 2007 Report Posted June 26, 2007 Woo hoo! All fixed. Thank god. From what I can tell, you must use the orange unlock from francetelecom as no other unlock applications will work. Well pleased now, I can finally start installing the software I want on my device. I received 15 responses from the site....must have been building up after all my attempts! My advice to all new e650 users is to only bother with the website link as all the other software solutions do not work.
