Ok, after installing the SPV E650 de-Brand it looks like the security was back on. Wasn't able to copy to and from the Windows folder. Not sure if others will encounter this problem, but it can be fixed by running the application unlocker again.

Oh... on the Orange matter...
Not sure whether or not this is the right place for the post, but I trust the moderaters to move it if not.

Spoke with Orange (Netherlands) customer support and data/technical support more than once about a.o. the hanging of the spinning wheel after the application unlock, and the missing case which, according to the item's list, should be in the box. They kept telling me there are NO known issues with the SPV E650.
Today, finally, I was promised they'd take it up with the right people at Orange and they'd report back after evaluation. Funny thing is... they told me to check the forums on the net related to the SPV E650 :P
People... DO take up the phone and call Orange about these things. I was compensated financially for the missing case :D And DO nag/whine/beg/plead about the bug when installing programs on the SPV E650. This is the only way to make some people over there get their heads outta their... uhmmm... you know :rolleyes:

Although it would be relatively straightforward to add from another Vox ROM, i'm pretty sure it would not be legal to do so, else I would :rolleyes:

Brilliant, thank you, although it did say 'the program you have installed my not display correctly as it was designed for a previous version of windows mobile' but it seemed to have worked, I didnt do the full clear storage I just installed as is, seems to have worked perfectly and the security patch is still working as it was before can delete and change icons in the windows directory, got the HTC mobile theme provided by looby! Also got google maps working with bluetoothgps also all thanks to this site

Cheers

FINALLY, I would ask that if you find this pack useful (or indeed not), you reply in this topic. Doing so will make it easier for me to show Orange that they really should try and furnish MoDaCo with the devices they promise.


Fantastic - thanks a million Paul! (Thanks also for the prompt via email)

Installed fine without a hard reset - looks great!, I've yet to test the install fix, will let you know how it goes.

Thanks again.

A.

Thanks Paul. I thought I'd chance it without a hard reset and it installed fine. The only problem I have found is when I tried to run Tomtom. It asked me to activate the map and now comes up with a different product code. Was working okay before though.

Hi Paul,

Thank you for creating this. The De-Brand works a treat.
Enhancement suggestion: If restart is mandatory, would you be able to force a restart via the cab?

Regarding the Installer problem, I read this and immediately installed as per the instructions as I'd spent hours trying to work out this install problem.

I followed the instructions, above, but the 1st program I tried to install "card_cache", same spinning wheel problem :rolleyes:

Nore to me. Definitely been working ok since I got the phone. I've checked TTCode.com and it has 2 device codes listed (one for my C600 previously and one for my E650). The one listed for my E650 is entirely different to the one it comes up with now. Could be a very odd coincidence I suppose but I've not installed anything for 3 weeks or so.

Yes, although i'm not sure how this is done. If I work it out, then i'll add it :rolleyes:

Strange as i've installed a whole bunch of apps (Opera, Resco etc.) and not had the problem. Did you re-unlock with the O tool after install? If so, could you try without that step (I didn't do that)?

Hmmmm.... something odd is going on. I've just checked the IMEI number on the box and also on the sticker on the back of the phone and when I check it on the phone itself I seem to have gained two extra digits (01) on the end. Is that even possible?

Yes, the last two digits of the IMEI on the phone via *#006# are usually not included on the box.

AS it happens, yes I did run the unlocker twice, being as some users said it still needed unlucking again afterwards.
  • I ran Unlocker
  • Ran DeBrand
  • Ran Unlocker again
I'll do another Hard Reset, and just do the two steps, and retry:-
  • Run Unlocker
  • Run DeBrand

I'm guessing the Tomtom Application code is based on the IMEI number? Not sure why it should have changed and locked me out though.
