    You can't unlock newer nokias with a f/mbus cable you need a flasher cable to do this and the software to flash the eprom on your phone.
    Its quite easy to do but its also quite easy to kill your phone if you do it wrong.
    Go to www.alcom-systems.com for your cable and information on what to do I have used them several times and their 100%
    As I said before make sure you know what your doing before you flash your phone and always take a firmware backup first.

    Hope this helps

    Cheers

    You say you have the serial and flasher cable??

    Well if you have the flasher cable you need to d/l a good program

    The Dejan Flasher is the best!!

    http://www.cro-web.com/maroon/

    get it there, you will also need to d/l the partial flasher file for the 3310 v4.45 and note the start address (very important)

    Run the software, press F2 to write to the fone, dont bother reading

    Select 3310

    Select the 3310 v4.45 partial file

    the start address is: 00280000

    key that in and press enter

    your phone has to be off with no sim

    it will tell you to connect the interface and press enter(have it connected and press enter) when you press enter then turn on the fone, it wont turn on properly but dont mind that

    that should work, if not you have to into the C:\NK_files and go to a loader folder and bring a new one out onto the C:\NK_files then try again

    PS the folders you d/l in the zip have to be extracted to C:\

    NO SUB FOLDERS WILL WORK!!!!!!

    This will only work on 95/98 it will not work if you havent got a comm 2 port also

    hope this has been helpful, + they have instructions on the d/l page

    ps you will have to search around for the 3310 v4.45 partial file as it is members only on the page i showed you. make sure it says 100% tested from where ever you d/l it
