    ok i decided to bite the bullet and br brave and do this - however its now saying windows cannot open the file ....

    any advice ?

    Which file can windows not open ?

    The samsung driver or the unlock software ?

    Just tried the samsung software and it works fine. If you have a cd rom that came with the phone try installing with that.

    The software is a tar ball. Install 7 Zip or any other archive extrator to extract it. http://www.7-zip.org/download.html

    Hi, I hate to ask you for a code, seeing all these pages of requests and codes, you certainly are kept busy. I have checked all the websites you listed plus paid websites, and almost paid for a couple until the T&C said that the "unlock report does not necessarily include a code".

    I am looking for a code for my 3 locked Sony Ericsson k800i and nowhere lists it as compatible, so if you could help I would be very grateful.

    Have you installed 7 zip ? It is similar to a zip file. I tell you what I will convert to a zip and upload to megaupload. Even better I have converted to a self extracting file. Download from megaupload (save to your pc) and double click it. It will extract the files etc itself.

    Patch unlock it.

    Use the following page to get the files :

    Use following page as a guide to debrand your phone.
    http://www.expansys-usa.com/ft.aspx?k=98987

    Then read following page to sort out and apply the unlock patch

    (B. How to apply the generated patches to DB2020 CID52 phones)

    Remember to backup your GDFS before you start flashing etc.

    Will take you 30 minutes maximum to do using the cable that came with the phone.
