GSM-Forum - BB5 ASK / RPL Convertor

BB5 ASK/RPL Convertor is an application installed on www.askrpl.com (dedicated server) which can automatically convert an ASK file into a RPL file.

What does this “ASK/RPL” actually mean?

“ASK” is short for the word asking and in fact the file read from your phone and sent to the server;
“RPL” is short for reply and is the file converted by the www.askrpl.com server then you will then receive;

What are the supported phones and how does this help me?

The BB5 ASK/RPL service is available for Nokia phones (new generation) from the BB5 series. Any Nokia phone has an error counter for inputting the network unlock code with 3 attempts. If these attempts are exhausted, the error counter is blocked and no more codes can be entered. The only way to unlock this counter (so you can enter the code again) is the ASK/RPL service. More precisely with the help of a piece of software and your phone’s data cable, you connect your phone to this software available in the download section and the file read will be saved into your computer with the *.ASK extension. This file will be sent to our server www.askrpl.com and it can perform the conversion, sending you a file with the *.RPL extension. Once you receive this file and with the help of the software available in our support forum you can write the RPL file from our server into your phone and the phone’s counter will be reset to 0 so you’ll be able to enter the unlock codes 3 more times.
Just as well, the BB5 ASK/RPL service can repair the phone’s security zone, more exactly it can repair phones with SIMLOCK STATE: FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF all you need is the data cable, the file from the server and the DSS or NSS application available in our support forum.
If your phone has the IMEI: 123456xxxxxxx, the server can calculate the repair file, but you will need special equipment such as: JAF Box, MTBOX, Universal Box and so on, to be able to flash the phone before the operation.

What is the time to receive the RPL file?

www.askrpl.com is a special application, a BB5 ask/RPL convertor which only needs a maximum of 1 minute to deliver the RPL file.

Does the service always work, including weekends?

The service is operational around the clock weekends included. It’s always available without the need for human intervention to generate the files. Everything is automated, the file conversion is instant.

What are the formats accepted by the www.askrpl.com BB5 ASK/RPL Convertor ?

All formats are accepted: MTBOX Nokia, DSS, NSS, JAF, NOKIA Universal FORMAT, UBOX.

Can I read and write the ASK/RPL if I don’t have any special equipment?

Yes, you can repair any Nokia BB5 with simlock state: FFFFFFFFFFFFF with only the use of the free software available in our support forum. If your phone has IMEI: 123456xxxx then you will need a flash tool (MTBOX, JAF, etc)

Provided I read the ASK file with another equipment before sending, is it necessary to use the same tool to write it back?

NO, you can read the ASK file with any tool.
For example: you can read the file with MTBOX and write the RPL file with the DSS logger or vice-versa.
