XDAunlock: "Error converting file"

[gusset25]

Cannot convert file 'XDAunlock'
The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.

That is the message i get when trying to unlock my ebay-purchased xda using XDAunlock. I found the program after my usual mobile shop failed to unlock it. I guess they may have been using this cool executable too!

anyway, please can someone suggest why this may be happening? and what else i might try?

If your fone is the basic XDA2, then go to this forum:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=6963

and ignore the bit about the program being replaced. If on the other hand you have a fone that is newer than the XDA2, (XDA2i, XDA2s, XDA3 etc.) go to the forum above and click on the link at the top for the newer fones.

There are step by step instructions available on each posting, which explain how to do it. Take notice of the warnings given in the postings, as I believe unlocking the fone may invalidate warranties etc but it depends on the country your in, source of the fone etc. As allways, any modifications are taken at your own risk. Saying that, ive not had any problems, and this community has helped me out a lot. Enjoy

Hope this helps.

Thanks - but it's an XDA - the first one...
