Hi! I'm sorry, but I don't speek portuguese. I hope somebody understand english and can help me.

I have a problem with a W5:

- One year ago, I buy a W5, from Digitel, Venezuela. The phone was locked. I brought it to a "technician" and he pinpointed and unloked it. The phone was Ok.

- In June, 2009, it got a white screen problem. I though it was a software corruption problem. I downloaded a firmware (R452GL8_G_08.00.05R_PDS001_LP0003_DRM0101_VSTG_30 D_01020d_JPJAVA_G_08_R452GL8DAP_01_01_24R_GSTPEMBA MTELMXLA021_1FF.sbf) file from this site, and flashed the phone with Flash & Backup. The version of the firmware matched with the phone version.

- The phone remains in the same way. Then, someone advised me that the problem was in the flex cable. Today, I replaced the cable and the phone screen displays again!!

- But now, due to the firmware issue, the phone ask me for a "Subsidiary code" after I type the PIN code.

I don't understand. It's pinpointed and unlocked!!! Why it ask me about the subsidiary code? Should I give the phone to the "technician" again??? Please, what can I do???

Thanks in advance!

Understand what The Problem was flex cable you took in technician and

Hi Alex, and thanks for your answer.

The technician only replaced the flex cable. I was who flashed the phone with a firmware downloaded from **********. It's my fault!

I'm asking about a way to re-flash it, with a "free" firmware! I have a friend with a unlocked W5. Maybe it has no sense, but it's not possible to "copy" the firmware from one phone to the other?

Thanks!

possible is since what is of same version to Bootloader and Firmware more I what no will unlock the more viable would your proprio backup previously of lock..

Alex, please, answer me in portuguese. I can read it. Your answers maybe are from a automatic translator, and I can't understand very well.

I don't have a firmware backup previously of lock. I have a full save from Flash&Backup of the phone data, but I used it and nothing happen. The firmware I flashed to is from TELCEL. The original was from Digitel.

I think tha Flash&Backup only save some parts of the software, but it doesn't save the loader, boot or something. When I use the old backup, all the screens change to Digitel, but it still ask for the Subsidiary Code!

Now I used a program called SBF-Recalc, ver. 1.2.8. I read in a forum that this program could unlock the subsidiary lock. It found 2 and unlocked it, but the phone still ask for the subsidiary code.

I'll keep researching and'll keep you informed.

Thanks!

É possivel sim desde que seja da mesma versão de Bootloader e Firmware mais creio eu que não irá resolver oque de certeza desbloquearia seu W5 seria repassar seu proprio backup antes de ele ser bloqueado..
