Patching DB2020 Using Setool2 Lite

What you need:
Setool2 Lite  http://www.mobilejunkies.net/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownloaddetails&cid=67&lid=4189&ttitle=Setool2_Lite_1.11#dldetails
It is the patching software. Also contains qamaker.exe (Quick Access patch maker)

A MAIN firmware compatible with your phone. It will be flashed to your phone

Recommended that you backup your GDFS using both setool2 and XS++. If you haven’t already

Step 1:
1. Extract setool2 lite archive and open the folder where you have extracted it
2. You should see a a folder named qamaker with qamaker.exe in there. Drag and drop the .mbn file of the MAIN on qamaker.exe (Note that you don’t have to run qamaker.exe, you just have to drag and drop the .mbn file on it)
3. A .vkp patch file will be generated to allow quick access
4. Run setool2 lite. Select your phone in phone type (in my case w580)
5. Click on the “Add” button beside the files box. Browse to and select the .mbn file of the MAIN you used in step 2
6. Click on the “…” box beside the MISC box. Browse to and select the .vkp file generated in step 3
7. Check Bypass DB2020 Security box.
8. Turn off your phone. Click on Flash.
9. Now press and hold ‘c’ on your phone and plug in the USB cable.
Setool2 lite will perform some operations.
10. When its done, it will tell you to disconnect phone, reinsert battery and then reconnect phone while holding ‘c’ on your phone. Perform these tasks in the order required.
11. If you perform step 10 correctly, setool2 will detect your phone and start flashing the MAIN file
12. When MAIN flashing is complete, setool2 will start applying the Quick Access patch. A pop-up box will appear. In it, click on “No” to apply the patch. (Alternately, clicking on Yes will undo the patch)

It will take a couple minutes to apply the patch and when it states Elapsed: xx seconds, Quick Access patch has been applied.
End of Step 1

Step 2 – Applying Patches (To be followed whenever you need to apply a patch)

1. Run setool2 lite. Select your phone in phone type (in my case W580)
2. Click on the “…” box beside the MISC box. Browse to and select the .vkp file generated in SimoxPatch Generator
,your own patch for unlocking or some other patch that you want to use (radio without handsfree,sms ringtone increased to 60 sec… )
3. Check Use ”quick access” patch box.
4. Turn off your phone. Click on Write Script
5. Now press and hold ‘c’ on your phone and plug in the USB cable.
Setool2 lite will perform some operations.- Setool2 will show a pop-up box saying “Press No to apply patch, Yes to undo”. Click on No (of course if you want to later undo an applied patch, you will need to press Yes).

– Note: If you get a warning saying byte mismatch the general rule is DONT PATCH IT!!!

6. It will take a few seconds to apply the patch and when it states Elapsed: xx seconds, patch has been applied,
End of Step 2 and whole process… turn on your phone with SIM form operator that you want to use ,and check that evereything works.
