Hi friends, I found a simlock exe and the .mui . My MDA is simlock free, could be that you try to copy past this both against the original one.
This is just an idea. Lets try it. I found the files with total comander
hidden in rom (checked) .
Best regards
Ole

Unfortunately this wont work. All simlock.exe does is ask the user to enter an unlock code - it doesn't do the actual unlocking.
What it does do, is pass the code to the Radio Interface Layer where the radio ROM will process the code in order to determine if it is valid or not.
The RIL also checks other things e.g. if you've exceeded the maximum number of failed attempts at unlocking. If the code was valid then the RIL unlocks itself, and returns a message to simlock.exe saying that the unlock was successful.
