[Q] Nokia DLOAD Unlock? - Nokia Lumia 800

Hey Guys,
I was wondering has there been an update on unlocking lumia devices with the Nokia DLOAD bootloader.
I'm actually on my second Lumia 800 ( the first one being a preproduction model i got as a gift from nokia, and the second a shop bough lumia).
The first lumia i had had the Qualcomm bootloader and i was able to flash custom firmware to the device.
The second lumia i have has the Nokia DLOAD bootloader, and this is where i'm running in to issue's.
I can't seem to find anyway to debrand device.
It's currently branded Vodafone, and want the branding removed.
Anybody have any idea's or information on how to get this done?

DLOAD cannot be rooted so cant do a sim unlock too.
your stuck with it for now..and dont raise hopes for an unlock for DLOAD..pretty dead with the dev for that :/

But why the 710's is rooted?

There was a kind of exploit that was discovered but sadly just on the 710.

It was discovered on 800 , but it was an older make of 800 which had qualcomm
somone found the right osbl so it was possible to unlock 710 too...

So can we put qualcomm file in the osbl and flash everything with care suite?

hi. you can debrand a dload lumia using nokia care suit. to do that you download the unbranded firmware using navfirm and insted of puting in rm801 folder put in rm817 but dont rename the firmware. than in product support tool uncheck automatic product selection than open product and select rm-817 , them programing/recovery click on update list than with lumia turned of click on start and connect the usb cable to pc pressing only the vol up key.
if you need a more detail "tutorial" just say, but be i dont recommend doing this if lumia was sim unlocked by code as it will locked again and you will need to put the code again

Hi there!
Here you go:

I can say it's safe, becouse within this you can't install anything that can break your phone, since "thoose" apps need at least interop unlock, and if you have Dload bootloader in you lumia 800, DEV unlocking your phone is the only way, to install some custom apps on your phone, becouse guys give up?! tryin to crack Nokia's DLOAD bootloader, so we could have a full unlock on our devices, but every honor goes to them at least rying to do something. So go on with chevronwp7!

Dev unlock is available for DLOAD bootloaders its been available for quite a long time.but still its not worth it since the maximum number of apps u can install is 10. And also there are not many useful apps available for developer unlocked phones. ur best bet is to wait for a hack for the DLOAD bootloader.its only a matter of time till someone hacks it. cheers XD

Probably not. (From what I know about France you can get the code free after having had the phone for 3 months. If that happened then it is unlikely ATF was used. (The bootloader is downgraded by Testpoint to get it to work).

yes that is true they only unlockit after 3 months but this one was not bouygues that unlocked it, it was someone because the phone was bought about 1 month ago. i dont know why but yesterday after debranding the phone he got locked again so i took it to a store to unlockit again. today im going to get it and ask the guy how he unlocked it because probaly its not going to get the code from bouygues
so i got the code but he wont telme were he got it but from what see the code is stored in registry probaly because if its updated buy zune or ncs it will lock again

Sadly, you can't, atleast for now. As far as I know only Lumia 710 can do that by downgrading the firmware or whatever, but its not possible on Lumia 800, I also have Dload bootloader, I guess just wait, everything will come, with time, patience!
Do you have .esco file?

He buddy, good to see you back here, still wondering what happened with your Lumia 710, ok to get back to your question it's not possible to make your phone sim unlocked by flashing a custom rom.
Greetz,
Hey Rataplan,
As you know I broke my Lumia 710. I sold the phone for 30 euros.
As i have no money I had to save for a new phone.
So I bought a Nokia E6 for 70 euros, sold it for 90.
Bought a Samsung Galaxy S(1) for 75 and sold it for 100..
Good business for me
Now I have the opportunity to buy a Nokia Lumia 800 for 120 euros. But I have to figure out if this one has a simlock or not..
I let you know and as soon I got the phone, I'll be back here
Thanks for you answer!!
Hi,
no you can NOT SIM-unlock your L800 by flashing a custom rom.
But, for being able to flash a custom rom, you need to have to swap your DLOAD bootloader to the qualcomm one.
If you do this yourself using ATF box, you can easily sim-unlock your phone using ATF as well.
If you let your L800 get bootloader unlocked in a "special store", please tell them to also sim-unlock your L800.
BUT be carefull: this sim-unlock is only a PATCH-unlock, which means if you full-flash your phone, you'll overwrite the patched amss & adsp files of your phone, which cause your phone to be locked again.
But if you stay with qualcomm and custom roms, you're fine

Hi, finally I got my Lumia 800! Very exiting haha!
But, I am too afraid to unlock and flash a custom rom again. Too afraid to brick my phone again, so I think I'm leaving it the way it is..
Thanx Lordmaxi for your information. But to go from DLOAD to Qualcomm is difficult isn't it? if I read this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39508229&postcount=2
I don't think I want to go trough all that trouble..
Anyway, I'm sticking with original firmware and stuff. If I change my mind, I will be back here!!
