Dear forummembers,

i have just unlocked my branded E160 with DC-Unlocker.

The unlock process was realy fast and works fine for me.
I positive tested my E160 with an alternative SIM.

Now its up to me to update the Flashdrive preinstallation device (Virtual CD-ROM Drive).

Im afraid to flash my E160, cause my current flash supports all OS i use.
Even Vista x64 is supported. the date of my stick is january 2k9.

Branding is "Tchibo Mobile" (O2-Germany)

My wish is to check if the DC-Unlocker supported support flash to debrand my stick in order to finalize the unlock/debranding process.:

- Can you sugest me to use the DC-Unlocker supported flach for the E160?

- Is it posible to make an backup before the flash action in order to rollback in case the flash not fit my needs?

- I not need all functions of "Mobile Partner" cause lack of support by my hardware (Stick). Is the flash optimized for my stick?


Very thank you for replay.

Kind Regards,
Chris

Unfortunately dc unlocker not have way to backup dashboard or firmware for Huawei. Before upgrade modem, you can try use not customized software : http://www.dc-unlocker.com/downloads/open/32
if all ok, then upgrade :

Thank you for the info.

I downloaded the not customized software and installed it.
The result was not like i hoped.
The software starts propper, but the device does not get installed / listed in the devicemanager.
Also the option to send GSM-Codes is missing ?!

Is there maybe an workflow to get a positive result?


Kind regards,
Chris
