Hi,
I read carefully the instructions about unlocking V3. I tried many times but failed, terrible.
The boot loader is 08.26. I downgraded it to 07.D0, then no DOS screen as the software mentioned.
After flashing other version such as 42.10 it can start but no service.
I then tried to flashed R374_G_0E.40.79R it can not normally start, only in DOS but still no screen (I can see it in hardware list in my PC). Then I used unlock, it seemed ok but it still cannot start.
I have to flashed it to 42.10 same as before, no service signal.
The biggest problem is when flashing R374_G_0E.40.79R the cell phone can not start.
Can anybody help this?
Many thanks!

Till now it seems no "subsidy code" needed but it still has no signal.
I did not backup PDS but I have another V3 RAZR at hand. Can I use that backup to restore in this one? or just use p2k easy tool to repair PDS?
Many thanks for any suggestions!!!

Just because you can't see the boot screen doesn't bean it's not there. It is very common for the bootloader screen to show up VERY dimly, sometimes you can't see it at all after downgrading the bootloader.
I don't think you'll be able to use p2k easy tools to reapair the PDS, you will need a smart-clip for that.

wine_guy: you mean I have to send it to someone who has a smart-clip to fix PDS?
