Guest awarner [MVP] Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 You have just unzipped the cab file :) On win 98 and ME cab files look similar to zip files. Just place the file you downloaded in to the IPSMWindowsStart Menu Accessories folder and run it from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest defeat1 Posted March 14, 2004 Report Share Posted March 14, 2004 Oh dear. I've tryed this over and over and over again. Im going onto a week of non-stop trying. ATT is telling me to screw off, and these cab files do not work. I get through the instalation just fine, but its not affective in any way or shape. I just wanna use my TMO sim in my MPx200.

Guest awarner [MVP] Posted March 14, 2004 Report Share Posted March 14, 2004 Welcome to the site :) This topic is about decerting your phone not SIM unlocking it. Orange use an application lock to prevent non-certified apps from running on the phone. This topic explains a work around to the problem. Have a look at the posts below there is one giving links to sites that can SIM unlock your phone for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest defeat1 Posted March 14, 2004 Report Share Posted March 14, 2004 I may be new to the forum, however I am far from being a "n00b" as far as cell phones go, and I definitely know the difference between a SIM Lock, SIM PUK, or a Network Lock, and a Network PUK. However, now I am a bit confused as to what exactly do these cab files do? Do they unlock the phone so I may use it with different carriers? Or have I missunderstood everything so far and have been following wrong instructions all along? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kelv23 Posted March 14, 2004 Report Share Posted March 14, 2004 In a nutshell yes,you have misunderstood this thread.The cab file "Alphaflux Unlock" is nothing to do with sim unlocking it is for removing the security certification of the MPX200 so it can run 3rd party software,freeware and shareware programs by independant developers. SIM unlocking for the MPX200 is done by sending your IMIE number to a person/company that calculates the SIM unlock code from your IMIE number and usually sends it to you by e-mail,although none of these services appear to be active at the moment.As of present there is no way of sim unlocking your MPX200 for free you have to pay for the service,anywhere from $30-$80 depending who you choose.hope this clears things up.

Guest awarner [MVP] Posted March 14, 2004 Report Share Posted March 14, 2004 Unfortunately you have missunderstood what this thread is about, don't worry we all had to start somewhere :) The cabs does exactly as I explained above, they do not have anything to so with the SIMradio stack part of the phone. For example if you go to www.monolithix.org and look at the apps and games there, on an AT&T mpx200 you can run them straight away but on an Orange MPX200 you have to use the cab to remove the software application lock or as we say here "decert" before you can run the apps.

Guest Dooks Posted March 31, 2004 Report Share Posted March 31, 2004 if i dont touch the phone. the screen goes back to home screen within a few seconds Just a question... if you leave an application open, e.g. the Calendar, and then you close the lid and re-open it... does it automatically switch back to the home screen?
