I'm on XP.....I'm starting to get discourage....I am not even into the meat and potatoes(check the mispelling) on upgrading and I'm already getting discourage.....help me out. I think I am ready to go but when I start the 2.40 unlocker when it tells me to disconnect and reconnect I lose my active sync connection. I can't even unlock the phone to get going....very weird..I didn't mention but I'm on a verizon network....much appreciation to all that have responded and tried to help.

Yeah the program will still finish fine. As long as the bootloader screen on the ppc says usb on it which it should with the usb connected to phone and computer...When its disconnected from either it will say serial.

You will notice that when the phone starts to flash active sync disconnects and wont connect again until the flash is done and the phone reset..Then you'll have to set up an active sync partnership again..But thats only after flashing a new rom. Im not sure about the bootloader if you will need to set up a new partnership. All this is totally normal.

Just follow what it says to do on the screen to connect/disconnect at certain points. Phone should reboot itself when done. Then your ready to flash a custom rom.. I would recommend either the ppckitchen or any of no2chems roms for ease of use to flash custom roms though there are plenty of others available. All with certain positive and negatives about them.

If you run into any problems you could always flash to an official rom. Then try again.

Guys, I finally got it to unlock, I even flashed the new radio and rom....It actually went easy...I did not have to do anything extra, I guess the when I didn't see it actually sync i got nervous....just needed to be patient...I would like to thank everyone that gave me some input.

So I have Olipro - 2.40......Radio-3.42.30.....and DCD-3.2.2 rom
Time to enable this GPS.
