3330 4.50 unlock problem... - GSM-Forum

Hi, I have tryed to unlock a 3330 4.50 by partial flashing

. But

my MSId are invalid (ze program says it to me [bad english I'm french!])

. So I can't update FAID, but I don't really know what is FAID...

.
The **** is that the first time, I tried to unlock directly the phone, as if it was a < 4.30, with the DCT3 Flasher 4.78b6 Rolis. And now, the phone doesn't tap the network and reboot many times. Thank you for your help ++

Flash the original firmware back to the phone and unlock it using any new-DCT3 MBUS tool (Rolis, Dejan, kNok, Licker,...). Maybe you will have to recalculate the FAID (Flash Authority ID) which is some kind of a firmware "checksum". It the FAID is incorrect, the phone will not log to the network, as you've already noticed.
