Unlocking Vodafone K3565 Refresh
I’ve now bought a Vodafone ‘K3565 Refresh’ and below are a few observations.
1) I’ve been unable to find any Huawei drivers that work with The K3565 Refresh. The Vodafone drivers are the only ones that work.
2) Trying to unlock the K3565 Refresh with DC-Unlocker on Windows 7 causes a blue screen. I’ve tried this on two separate Windows 7 PC’s with the same result.
3) Trying to update the dashboard or firmware just comes back with ‘data card can’t be found...Error code 2...’. The Vodafone drivers are installed and the modem is listed in Device Manager .
4) Generating an unlock code using IMEI and entering with the cardlock_unlock utility comes back with ‘incorrect code’
5) DC-Unlocker appears to successfully unlock the modem on Windows XP, I haven’t been able to validate it is really unlocked.
