Unlocking K300i red CID36 method! - GSM-Forum

DeDaMrAz · 06-02-2005, 14:18

Because it was not so clear to all how to unlock K300i red CID36 here is a little "HOW TO" for that matter:

-1- Open up your phone
-2- Remove the shield form baseband part
-3- Connect small wire to TP (as in picture) insulated wire!!!
-4- Put your phone together (without the metal shield and front caseing)
-5- Start Cruiser and attach phone
-6- Go to "unlocking" tab and select "read codes" button
-7- Wait for soft prompt for connecting the TP
-8- Do it (connect TP tp GND)
-9- Disconect the TP when told by the soft to do so

DO NOT convert your phone to brown and DO NOT cut the test point!!!

Flash files for K300i will follow soon, so be careful!!!

what about z800i cid36 red
same steps ?

evan_silbert · 06-02-2005, 16:31

This is a very useful tutorial

Thank you. I am curious here, but did you solder the wire to the TP or attach it some other way? I would say it would be easier to use our old T610 cables with the battery clip and testpoint needle, no?

And, finally, how about TPs for other phones?

DeDaMrAz · 06-02-2005, 17:23

Well i attached TP with a very small (.0015 mm thick) wire

and connected it to GND and it all went quite smooth. But you can always use old TP methods as long as you prefer them

And for the TP pictures you will have to ask Lead because he is the one who releases them.

regards.

P.S. I assume that other phones will have similar methods of TP connection.

So no need for reflash the phone?

mkk426 · 06-03-2005, 21:38

i got few questions my friend,

would u mind to teach me

1: how to open the metal cover on the phone's morther broad?? very hard

, because the pictures show those are opened

2: i still dont understand how to connect all stuffs together, is using any metal wire connect from TP on the phone to GND ( usb cable connect with computer )???

thx

MOBICOM · 06-03-2005, 23:31

We need tou use GND from phone to TP point?

wbr.

evan_silbert · 06-04-2005, 00:05

You can find ground around the edge of the metal cover. I hope Cruiser testpoint cables with a VBAT alligator and GND needle will come from China soon.... hint to factories

UnlockBR · 06-04-2005, 00:23

old t610 with tp cables will not work?

Anyway, sson we will not need tp anymore

evan_silbert · 06-04-2005, 00:25

I can't see why those cables won't work. I don't have one though for Cruiser though

I hope you're right about not needing TP, and I trust Lead, but this might take a while. For him to release this solution, he must have felt it would be a significant amount of time until he could relase another solution.

UnlockBR · 06-04-2005, 00:29

Ok...

Maybe you are right... but I don't think Lead will let other box ahead for too much time... as he said, TP will be neede in future CID releases but they will be supported faster... so I think older CIDS w/o TP will be always implemented fast...

Anyway, let's wait what Lead will bring to us ;-) Cruiser was the 1st with CID36. No matter about TPs

Regards,

fuzionGSM · 06-04-2005, 05:23

GTi is first for CID36 without TP tho

gbrooks3 · 06-04-2005, 12:07

I bet Lead has plenty of reasons for doing what he is doing. Maybe i am foolish - but i trust Lead 100% in terms of Cruiser

and i am sre there is always a reason behind his actions

evan_silbert · 06-04-2005, 14:16

I agree, but I think in this case, testpoints should be avoided from more than a laziness perspective.

SE already expected this and covered many testpoints with glue.
Z800 has proven difficult to open without damage.

I hope for an update without TP soon

sale · 06-04-2005, 14:17

hmmm....best way is always without testpoints but if you need fast solution need this one...
