i have read loads of posts about unbranding/unlocking the k700i but i am still unclear on something
i had a vodaphone k700i which i got unlocked - before i had it unlocked it would let me do a bluetooth search but when i went to send something it would just say "connecting" all the time and the only way to get rid of this would be to take the battery out
i was told an online update from the se site would sort this
so i bought a dss 20 and tried the update - it asked me to turn the phone on and put it in he sync station
then this error message appears
"there are currently no devices supported for your operator"
or something along those lines
so my question is
do i have to get the phone unbranded and then do the update, even though it is already unlocked
cheers |

Yes, you need to get it Unbranded using Total Multiserver. And that should do the trick. Use the T28 Cable to do this
There has been some lengthy discussions on it in the General Part of the forum here
http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=70831
This should help
I presume you have the t28 cable that you unlocked your phone with and you can use it again to debrand.
Did you use totalmultiserver last time?
Also, WHen its debranded you should be able to use the sync station to update the f/w

hi thanks thats all i needed to know
no i dont have a t28 cable i got it unlocked at a local shop
have just rung them and they said they can unbrand for either £15-£20
so i might just pop down there or buy a credit from faceoffmobiles and t28 off ebay
thanks for clearing that up
once its sorted my mum can have the k700i and im getting a new phone
all ive had is problem after problem with the k700i
thanks for your reply |
