htc hub is good，i want install it on my Omnia, but i can`t find the xap file.
maybe someone can help me, thx
try here not sure it will work

doesn't work on mine...
will you let us know if you find a working version?
HTC HUB
You need a dev unlocked phone.
Use the chevron wp7 method.
IF YOU HAVE ERRORS CONECTING THE PHONE TO CHEVRONwp7 PROGRAM, two ways to try to solve it.
METHOD ONE:
1. Have Winphone developer tools installed. Download it for yourself
2. Connect Phone via USB
3. Wait till zune starts and sync completes
4. Verify that zune is not in a guest relationship
5. open a command prompt, type netstat -a to confirm that port 443 is not being used
6. open an admin command prompt, navigate to c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\ then type notepad hosts and delete any references to windowsphone developer services
7. go to the settings on the phone and turn airplane mode on (so that the phone is forced to use internet via zune)
8. While the phone is still on the settings page, run Chevron with admin privileges
Attention: if port 443 is used (see on your list) stop IIS or exit Skype program
METHOD 2
1. Click the Windows Icon.
2. On the search box, type device manager, click enter
3. Click continue when prompted
4. On the device manager window, find "Portable Devices"
5. Right click on your Leo. Uninstall
6. Unplug your device. if you can find another "Portable Devices" uninstall it also (as it was for my case)
7. Restart PC
8. Plug device again (Do not open Zune software yet)
9. Windows should try to install driver for the device. Click on it. After installing there should be two things in there... the other one is your Leo ready to use. I can't remember the other one, but I think it is "storage card ready to use"
10. When done correctly. Zune will open up on its own.
11. See the device sync
12. Your free space should appear in the zune software
13. Run Chevron
14. It should open now without the "uh oh" error
Then follow the original instruction on how to install chevron
I have tried it on my omnia 7 and it works. The HTC Hub can be found as an .xap file in the xda wp7 forums if im not wrong. you can install it with Tom's Xap Installer 1.2 in the xda forums too
HOPE I HELPED
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR PHONE
* Steps:
1st You need to get to: alpharev.nl/x/beta/ to download the tool, and to get your “beta key” which you’ll get in a pop-up window in the same download page after you click the download link for (windows version).
The “beta key” is a must; the tool won’t work without it!
You’ll be asked to provide your phone “serial no.”, typically it should be something like HTXXETDXXXXX, and you can get it from:
Settings --> about phone --> phone identity.
Now, do the following:
1. Run latest version of HTC Sync on your PC and connect phone in HTC Sync mode and sync all your files. Remove HTC Sync and not the drivers.
2. Reboot phone.
3. Settings->Applications->Development->Check “USB Debugging”.
4. Run AlphaRevX and connect phone to PC in “Charge Only mode”.
5. AlphaRevX should recognize your phone and show your Device Serial number.
7. Type out the “key” in the AlphaRevX software, keeping in mind the upper and lower case letters and press enter (you can copy / paste the key).
8. AlphaRevX should start doing its job and you’ll get S-OFF in less than 90 seconds.
9. If it takes longer, just wait for the 15 minutes mark, if nothing, then reboot phone and retry.
(Some members got S-OFF after multiple tries)
Rooting the device:
Step 1 - Installing the USB drivers
Download USB drivers (here) and extract them on desktop. Turn off your wildfire and boot into HBOOT by holding the VOLUME DOWN + POWER button. Connect your phone to your PC and it will show "drivers installing" or similar there for Android device. When prompted, install the drivers by going to device manager and browsing to the folder where you extracted the drivers. Once installed, disconnect and reboot your phone normally.
Now you need to install the “Android bootloader interface”.
Connect your HTC wildfire to the PC and it will ask for drivers again, now go to device manager, click on unknown device “other devices”.
Click on update driver -> install from specific location -> No i will choose to install -> choose Android phone and click on “adb interface” -> click next -> when asked to install click on continue anyway, just install them.
Once done you will see your phone recognized as "Android bootloader interface".
Now disconnect your phone and go into:
Settings -> applications - > development - > enable USB Debugging.
Congratulations, the first step is complete.
go to:http://www.4shared.com/file/K3HTXWWd/GingerBreak-v120.html
and download the file...and put it anywhere in ur phone....
switch on your phone and install gingerbreak..
awitch on the app...
and then press root..
after it is done it will either reboot itself or you reboot it manually...
congrats your phone is now rooted..!!!!
Nice. I rooted my phone this way aswell!
Its usefull for people with newer HBOOT versions!
no need to do this so complicated...
just s-off using alpharev x, install clockwork mod recovery and start flashing ROOTED roms.
no need for gingerbreak. and if you want to root your current ROM, just use the su.zip
!!
i felt that this was easier then that one..!!

get Sony Mobile Update Service installed in your PC, and roll back firmware.
i believe this is the only way I know at the moment.
Superuser - and then...
Sony XTZ (Jap Docomo version SO-03E) with stock FW .269
I have run the installer (with few errors, but generally appearing to be successful) and have been given superuser access. I However do not see any other changes to the tablet.
In the service code menu I still see that bootloader unlock = no
What is the next step towards installing a recovery and/or custom firmware? The fastboot flash still doesn't allow access to input the unlock code from Sony.
Perhaps this is a noob question and I am not experienced enough with the android superuser app, but if I am having trouble, odds are many other are too.
Many thanks to any who can help,

Sony Xperia Tablet Z (SO-03E) running stock docomo FW .269 :crying:
since i read about many people that wanted to flash a custom (or stock) rom but want to be able to restore the delivered rom i want to write a little tutorial for:
(this is what i did to make it work for me, be careful otherwise you can brick your device. i am not responsible if your device gets bricked)
I setting up ADB + Fastboot (on windows & Linux)
II booting a (racovery)image without flashing it
III backing up the WHOLE phone (to be able to restore the delivery status)
IV flashing (stock) rom
1. download:
- - - - 1.1 15 seconds ADB Installer (for Windows) from a xda user
- - - - - - - - - - 1.1.1 old and more complicated way to do that: Android IDE including the android sdk at https://developer.android.com/studio
actually you only need the android sdk which is included in the SDK tools package but i couldnt get that to work so i would be very happy if someone could write a short tutorial on how to use that and i will add it!
- - - - 1.2 twrp from https://twrp.me/devices/leecolemax2.html
- - - - 1.3 ROM: eg LineageOS from the ROM section
2. - 4. installing ADB and Driver
- - - - 2.5 WINDOWS: when using 15 seconds ADB installer step 2.-4. become obsolete
- - - - 2.6 LINUX: sudo apt update && sudo apt install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot && adb version (troubleshooting: sudo adb kill-server && sudo adb start-server)
2. install the ide:
- - - - 2.1 install the ide (android studio) which you downloaded
- - - - 2.2 open the android studio
- - - - 2.3 on the welcome screen press "configure" on the lower right corner, then "SDK Manager"
- - - - 2.4 go to "SDK Tools" and check the checkboxes "Android Platform Tools" (for ADB and Fastboot in console) and "Google USB Driver" (for the device driver) and press apply
3. setting adb and fastboot as Environment Variables (instead of navigating to the path where the adb.exe and fastboot.exe are (in order to use adb and fastboot in the console you can also add them to the system commands))
- - - - 3.1 open: open "Run" by pressing Windows+R -> enter "sysdm.cpl" and press ok -> advanced -> Environment Variables
- - - - - - - - - - 3.1.1 in the System variables section search for the variable "Path" and click the edit button
- - - - - - - - - - 3.1.2 add to the end ";" + your "platform-tools"-path (mine was in "C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\platform-tools" but you can slo simply search the computer for "platform-tools" or "adb.exe" to find the path)
4. install adb usb driver
- - - - 4.1 plug in your Leeco Le Max 2 go to device manager (by openening "Run" by pressing Windows+R and enter "devmgmt.msc")
- - - - 4.2 search for your phone (mine was called "Android Phone" and had a yellow warning symbol)
- - - - 4.3 right click -> Update Driver Software -> "Browse my computer for driver software" -> "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer" -> "Show All Devices" -> "Have Disk"
- - - - 4.4 enter the path to the Goolge USB Driver it should be "C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\extras\google\usb_driver" (but you can also simply search your computer for "usb_driver" to find the path)
- - - - 4.5 select "Android ADB Interface" from the list -> confrim and install
- - - - 4.6 CAUTION: i had to install the driver twice!! once when the device was simply turned on and plugged in as described above and ALSO when it wen into fastboot mode!!!!
5. unlock your bootloader
- - - - 5.1 on your Phone go to settings -> About Phone -> Tap On "Build Number" 7 Times To Enable Developer Options
- - - - 5.2 Settings -> Developer Options -> enable "Usb Debugging"
- - - - 5.3 Settings -> Developer Options -> enable "Oem Unlock"
- - - - 5.4 connect your turned on Le Max 2 via USB
- - - - 5.5 start the console via Windows+R -> "cmd" and enter the following
- - - - 5.6 adb usb" -> confirm the connection on your device
- - - - 5.7 (optional) "adb devices" to check if your device is listed
- - - - 5.8 "adb reboot bootloader" brings you to the fastboot mode (if not check on of the links)
- - - - 5.9 (optional) "fastboot oem device-info" shows some info about your device e.g. your lock status
- - - - 5.10 "fastboot oem unlock" unlocks your bootloader -> confirm on smartphone (via "fastboot oem lock" you can also lock your device angain)
- - - - 5.11 (optional) "fastboot reboot" if you dont want to continue
6. boot into twrp without flashing and backup
- - - - 6.1 copy your twrp img (from 1.2) to the path you are using the console from (in the console you should see something like C:\Users\USERNAME>_ thats the device where you need to store your twrp image)
- - - - 6.3 enter the following to your console while beeing in fastboot mode (you possibly have to repeat steps 5.4-5.8)
- - - - 6.4 "fastboot boot RECOVERYNAME.img" replace the RECOVERYNAME by the name of your recovery imagename e.g. "twrp-3.0.2-1-x2.img" (for flashing the rom type [-"fastboot flash recovery RECOVERYNAME.img"
- - - - 6.5 twrp should start after a few seconds
- - - - 6.6 go to "backup"
- - - - 6.7 select everything!
- - - - 6.8 backup
- - - - 6.9 reboot your device (to system)
- - - - 6.10 copy the TWRP folder which contains the folder "BACKUPS" and your files to your computer
- - - - - - - - - - 6.10.1 you will possibly occure a "denied permission" error. so you'll have to go to the console (again in the twrp) and enter "chmod -R 777 /sdcard/TWRP" that changes the permission of everything invluded in the folder TWRP to read+write+execute
- - - - - - - - - - 6.10.2 alternatively you can also backup on a usb stick via otg
- - - - 6.11 to restore repeat till step 6.5 and go to restore, there you should see the backup you created (of course you should have copied it to your device via the pc)
7. flash recovery
- - - - 7.1 i flashed the indian stock rom since it already has the google play store installed (is there any benefit using the chinese rom????????)
- - - - 7.5 instead of steps 7.2-7.4 you can also simply copy the desired rom on your phone (or a usb stick that you connect to your phone and have to mount inside TWRP!) and use the install option of TWRPthats way easier!!!
- - - - 7.2 start twrp again (see 6.3-6.5) and enter the adb sideload mode
- - - - 7.3 on the cmd type "adb sideload STOCKrOM.zip" (another way is described in this post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73995755&postcount=104)
- - - - 7.4 CAUTION: the adb command on my computer took so long that the adb sideloadmode on the smartphone exited with a timout error... if you have the same problem just try to start the adb sideload command on the smartphone one or two minutes after you entered it on the cmd

i need in order to help you:
- what is the error that occurs? can you please use the twrp file manager to locate the twrp backup path? on my device it was here "/sdcard/TWRP/BACKUPS/"123abcd-canBeDifferent"/2016-12-13_someRandomDigits" containing the syszem_image.emmc.win , data.ext4.win000 system.ext4.win000 and so on...

i read somewhere that you can copy files via adb... but i dont remember how that worked...
possible solutions:
but you can try to use a ubuntu live system and try to copy the files with linux
OR
you can use an otg adapter and copy the files via the file manager within twrp

thank you @Amowagou i never rooted my device since resurection and mokee are both prerooted so i dont know how to do that but i saw another very good post on that topic. basically you have to flash a supersu image.
so boot into twrp (depending on what you already have done you might need to start at point 1.1 till 6.4) and then just flash the supersu image with twrp
EDIT:
i just found the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/le-max-2/how-to/root-le-max-2-changing-stock-recovery-t3512619
i hope i could help!
I got it working, what happened was I didn't type the ch command in the terminal correctly haha.
thanks for taking your time to reply.

great, actually "chmod -R 755 /sdcard/TWRP" should be fine too i just wasnt sure what to do so i lifted ALL restrictions by granting EVERYBODY read, write and execute rights ^^
but for backing up data that should be fine
Hello
First thank you very much for your great guide ! I think it is very clear and helped a lot of guys. :good:
However, i am facing an issue :
When i go to the sideload and write the code with the exact name of the zip file, it answer that it cannot read the file.
I tried to rename de file, with no special signs, replacing special signs with dots, naming it "filename". I tried to copy it in the C:\Users\Antoine\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\platform-tools it still wouldn't read it.
I tried with the indian version 16S but also 19S and both are not working.
Where should i copy the file ? What should be the name of it ? should i do something before coding "adb sideload" than just opening sideload in the phone's TWRP ?
To sum up : I don't know what to do, do you have a solution ?
Also, for newbies : the cmd in the twrp is in advanced, and called "terminal" (i seeked it for a long time).
Thank you in advance

it looks like your pathname has a white space in it. you have to choose a pathname without any whitespaces. (TIP: you can hold "SHIFT" + "RIGHT CLICK" then you can click on "copy as path", but remove the quotes if you paste it to the console)
[instead of using sideload you can also try to copy the stock rom on your device and install it with "install" on twrp or you can copy it on an usb stick and connect it via otg]
Hello,
thank you very much greenManGaming. It worked when in installed it through the TWRP
However it did not solve my problems with this phone, still cant recieve or send mms and wifi works only with youtube but won't open internet pages (which is very wierd, i can search on google, but can't open any pages ! Maybe setting issue ?).
Anyway, thank you very much for your tutorial, it was very clear and useful.
i heared that the chinese services for example the location service which runs over baidu arent working great outside china...maybe there are more issues outside china????
if nothing helps you can try one of the custom roms. (but be careful with mokee. i read that the mokee rom is (or at least was) trying to make a strange connection ... but i dont know if thats proven.. i just read it somewhere)
as far as i know @CrisBalGreece MIUI should be very good https://forum.xda-developers.com/le...max2-x820-822-miui8-1-6-12-3december-t3526832
regarding your browser problem. did you try another browser? (eg google chrome)
and also try another sms app (eg google messenger or maybe google allo)
if it didnt help, could you check which version you have right now? and maybe make an update?

Hello. Just take those scripts and put at the end of build.prop before flashing the rom. Those make the default DNS from BAIDU to Google DNS servers.
# Google DNS Tweak
net.rmnet0.dns1=8.8.8.8
net.rmnet0.dns2=8.8.4.4
net.ppp0.dns1=8.8.8.8
net.ppp0.dns2=8.8.4.4
net.dns1=8.8.8.8

Thank you CrisBalGreece for this advice, before trying the custom rom (always something not working at the end of the day) i would like to try your solution. :highfive:
Could you tell me were the file is ? it's a .whichformat ? Is it in the zip of the rom i will install ? Do i have to erase something before pasting it ?
I tried to find a build.prop file, don't have any, i also went through most of the files i found but nothing in it mention "google" or "baidu" and when "dns" is mentionned nothing's written like your quote
One last question, will this solve the mms solution ?
One last last question : i didn't erase data when upgrading from 16s to 19s, could it influence anyhing in anyway ?
I tried several other browser (chrome, opera, mozilla) and also sms programs (textra, chomp sms), nothing changes.:crying:
Don't forget i'm a total newbie so you should not expect much initiative from me :laugh:
withour root access you need to use adb to edit the build.prop
if you want to root your device there are plenty of apps on the appstore
here are two links for editing the build.prop with and without root, maybe the will help you

Hello, i don't know what is the phone you have so i can't help you. Eatch phone according his OS has diefrent properties. But if you have build.prop in your system file then you my go with this solution.
Maybye the mms,sms problem is on your APN settings and not on the DNS settings. Try to find your DNS configuration .xml to see inside if supports your carrier's configuration.

since i read about many people that wanted to flash a custom (or stock) rom but want to be able to restore the delivered rom i want to write a little tutorial for:
(this is what i did to make it work for me, be careful otherwise you can brick your device. i am not responsible if your device gets bricked)
I setting up ADB + Fastboot (on windows)
II booting a (racovery)image without flashing it
III backing up the WHOLE phone (to be able to restore the delivery status)
IV flashing (stock) rom
1. download:
- - - - 1.1 Android IDE including the android sdk at https://developer.android.com/studio
actually you only need the android sdk which is included in the SDK tools package but i couldnt get that to work so i would be very happy if someone could write a short tutorial on how to use that and i will add it!
- - - - 1.2 twrp from https://twrp.me/devices/leecolemax2.html
- - - - 1.3 indian stock rom http://forum.le.com/in/eui_list.html -> on the top left choose "Le Max 2" in the drop down menu
2. install the ide:
- - - - 2.1 install the ide (android studio) which you downloaded
- - - - 2.2 open the android studio
- - - - 2.3 on the welcome screen press "configure" on the lower right corner, then "SDK Manager"
- - - - 2.4 go to "SDK Tools" and check the checkboxes "Android Platform Tools" (for ADB and Fastboot in console) and "Google USB Driver" (for the device driver) and press apply
3. setting adb and fastboot as Environment Variables (instead of navigating to the path where the adb.exe and fastboot.exe are (in order to use adb and fastboot in the console you can also add them to the system commands))
- - - - 3.1 open: open "Run" by pressing Windows+R -> enter "sysdm.cpl" and press ok -> advanced -> Environment Variables
- - - - - - - - - - 3.1.1 in the System variables section search for the variable "Path" and click the edit button
- - - - - - - - - - 3.1.2 add to the end ";" + your "platform-tools"-path (mine was in "C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\platform-tools" but you can slo simply search the computer for "platform-tools" or "adb.exe" to find the path)
4. install adb usb driver
- - - - 4.1 plug in your Leeco Le Max 2 go to device manager (by openening "Run" by pressing Windows+R and enter "devmgmt.msc")
- - - - 4.2 search for your phone (mine was called "Android Phone" and had a yellow warning symbol)
- - - - 4.3 right click -> Update Driver Software -> "Browse my computer for driver software" -> "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer" -> "Show All Devices" -> "Have Disk"
- - - - 4.4 enter the path to the Goolge USB Driver it should be "C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Android\sdk\extras\google\usb_driver" (but you can also simply search your computer for "usb_driver" to find the path)
- - - - 4.5 select "Android ADB Interface" from the list -> confrim and install
- - - - 4.6 CAUTION: i had to install the driver twice!! once when the device was simply turned on and plugged in as described above and ALSO when it wen into fastboot mode!!!!
5. unlock your bootloader
- - - - 5.1 on your Phone go to settings -> About Phone -> Tap On "Build Number" 7 Times To Enable Developer Options
- - - - 5.2 Settings -> Developer Options -> enable "Usb Debugging"
- - - - 5.3 Settings -> Developer Options -> enable "Oem Unlock"
- - - - 5.4 connect your turned on Le Max 2 via USB
- - - - 5.5 start the console vie Windows+R -> "cmd" and enter the following
- - - - 5.6 adb usb" -> confirm the connection on your device
- - - - 5.7 (optional) "adb devices" to check if your device is listed
- - - - 5.8 "adb reboot bootloader" brings you to the fastboot mode (if not check on of the links)
- - - - 5.9 (optional) "fastboot oem device-info" shows some info about your device e.g. your lock status
- - - - 5.10 "fastboot oem unlock" unlocks your bootloader -> confirm on smartphone (via "fastboot oem lock" you can also lock your device angain)
- - - - 5.11 (optional) "fastboot reboot" if you dont want to continue
6. boot into twrp without flashing and backup
- - - - 6.1 copy your twrp img (from 1.2) to the path you are using the console from (in the console you should see something like C:\Users\USERNAME>_ thats the device where you need to store your twrp image)
- - - - 6.3 enter the following to your console while beeing in fastboot mode (you possibly have to repeat steps 5.4-5.8)
- - - - 6.4 "fastboot boot RECOVERYNAME.img" replace the RECOVERYNAME by the name of your recovery imagename e.g. "twrp-3.0.2-1-x2.img" (for flashing the rom type [-"fastboot flash recovery RECOVERYNAME.img"
- - - - 6.5 twrp should start after a few seconds
- - - - 6.6 go to "backup"
- - - - 6.7 select everything!
- - - - 6.8 backup
- - - - 6.9 reboot your device (to system)
- - - - 6.10 copy the TWRP folder which contains the folder "BACKUPS" and your files to your computer
- - - - - - - - - - 6.10.1 you will possibly occure a "denied permission" error. so you'll have to go to the console (again in the twrp) and enter "chmod -R 777 /sdcard/TWRP" that changes the permission of everything invluded in the folder TWRP to read+write+execute
- - - - - - - - - - 6.10.2 alternatively you can also backup on a usb stick via otg
- - - - 6.11 to restore repeat till step 6.5 and go to restore, there you should see the backup you created (of course you should have copied it to your device via the pc)
7. flash stock recovery
- - - - 7.1 i flashed the indian stock rom since it already has the google play store installed (is there any benefit using the chinese rom????????)
- - - - 7.2 start twrp again (see 6.3-6.5) and enter the adb sideload mode
- - - - 7.3 on the cmd type "adb sideload STOCKrOM.zip"
- - - - 7.4 CAUTION: the adb command on my computer took so long that the adb sideloadmode on the smartphone exited with a timout error... if you have the same problem just try to start the adb sideload command on the smartphone one or two minutes after you entered it on the cmd

can someone please confirm using "15 seconds ADB Installer" instead of android studio works?
i added the link of the "15 seconds ADB Installer" https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979 to the guide as an alternative to installing the whole android studio. If you already have the drivers you might prefer https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=42407269
Thanks for your drivers file. Iv finally use ur driver to connect to my max2 on windows.

[GUIDE/TUTORIAL/HOWTO] Unlock/debrand/desimlock Samsung Galaxy S i9000 for free in 2021
This detailed step-by-step guide helps you remove the provider locked on your Galaxy S phone using a Windows 10 PC.
### Make sure you read EVERY message starting with ###
CHANGELOG OF TUTORIAL
v1. Initial release
1 ) DOWNLOAD
- djibe Galaxy S i9000 debrand pack (47 MB) v1 : http://bit.ly/djibe-i9000-desimlock-pack
(contains all the required elements: Samsung USB drivers, SuperOneClick 2.3.3, Busybox, Galaxy S Unlock.apk)
2 ) CONTROL SIMLOCK ON YOUR PHONE
On your phone, open the dialer (as if you wanted to call a phone number) and type these keys:
Code:
*#7465625#
Phone returns this message:
Network Lock
[ON]
xxx
### If Network Lock is OFF, you can leave this tutorial now !
This technique was tested with latest official OS for Galaxy S i9000: Android Froyo 2.2.
### Debrand/desimlock cannot be executed from a custom ROM, you need the original one !
On phone, go to Settings > Applications > check Unknown sources,
now go to Settings > Applications > Development > and check USB Debugging.
3 ) INSTALL USB DRIVERS
Install the Samsung USB drivers from my pack.
Connect phone to PC and wait phone drivers installation.
4 ) ROOT PHONE
Desactivate your antivirus (Bitdefender and Windows defender blocked SuperOneClick from running on my PC).
Run SuperOneClick.exe from my pack.
(Make sure phone is connected and USB debugging is written in Android menu. If not, see above for USB debugging)
Click on Root and wait during operations.
When prompted, install Busybox.
When success message appears, you can close SuperOneClick.
### If root fails, your Antivirus deleted files. Redownload SuperOneClick and root again.
Now on phone: Open the new superuser app.
Tap on bottom left menu of phone to reveal app menu > Preferences > Automatic response > tap on Allow.
superuser will accept all operations (and prevent fail on next step).
5 ) UNLOCK/DEBRAND/DESIMLOCK PHONE
Connect phone to PC again.
Connect the phone as Mass USB storage.
Copy the 2 APK from my pack on main folder of phone's storage (phone appears as a USB key in Windows explorer).
Now open My Files app (standard Samsung app).
Scroll until you see BusyBox_v40*.apk.
Tap on it and select Package installer, confirm install.
Restart phone.
Now launch your new app Busybox Free.
### It can crash multiple times, try again until it doesn't.
Tap on Install button at the bottom of screen and wait during Busybox install.
Now open My Files app again.
Tap on Galaxy S Unlock apk file.
Tap on it and select Package installer, confirm install and Open app.
Once in Galaxy S Unlock app.
Sceen may become black, app is laggy. Just be patient.
Go to Unlock tab.
Tap on Step 1 Backup files and wait during backup of phone's IMEI.
Tap on yes to backup actual efs partition (phone's IMEI)
Continue with Step 2 > yes
Test a phone call. Restart phone.
And finish with step 3.
Reboot phone.
Go back to the dialer, type again *#7465625#
Network Lock is now [OFF]
Bravo !
Connect phone to PC as Mass USB storage again and save the Galaxy_S_Unlock folder located in the main folder of Internal storage.
Save it to a safe place on your PC.
Enjoy your freely debranded Samsung Galaxy S.
