Why Nokia3210?
Tsja, da's it strange to this Article he.. You have faulty Nokia3210 GSM necessary. We obtain the component to simplify these unlocking. On the next photograph to see you the binnenkant of Nokia 3210.
You must look at once well to what there at the top is itself. This is the appliances pre-eminently for Athlon XP unlocking, namely frost gently conductive. These are not current, but nevertheless gentle enough for our aims.
If you see it this way, it does not present much and cannot you of it much make. But to see you about which it goes, namely several fine, of each other geisoleerde enlarge job filled with conductive frost.
Using this frost are you able for your Athlon XP at unlocken.

Why a Nokia 3210?
Well, that is the strange thing about this article. You need a defect Nokia 3210. From this, we take the component we need to make the unlocking proces easier. On the next picture you'll see the interior of a Nokia 3210.
(Comment: A pic of the interior of the Nokia 3210 can be found on the website. The component that is needed for the unlocking proces is marked with the dutch phrase: hier zit het!! or here it is!!. Other dutch text on the pic: toetsenbord = keyboard.)
Take a good look at the top of the interior. This is the pre-eminent component to unlock an Athlon XP, namely soft conductive gel. It is not fluant, but yet soft enough for our purposes.
(Comment: A pic of a little block of gel can be seen on the website.)
If you see it, it looks as if you can't do much with it. If enlarged, you'll see what we are talking about. There are several, very fine lanes, that are isolated from eachother with conductive gel.
(Comment: An enlarged pic of the gel block is on the website.)
with this gel you can unlock an Athlon XP.
Unlocking procedure
The principle of the unlocking is now complete simple, such as you in the following photograph can see. Because the strip with the conductive frost does not lead, you do not have fill up the lasercuts for you start with unlocken. This makes a difference em immediately a complete heap work. you can place the strip ordinary opver the bridges.
Afterwards you must cut the conductive strip tailored. The core of the CPU are approximately 0,8mm higher than the package, therefore the strip must be cut finely on up to 1mm altitudes.
And that stick you then beautiful concerning the L1 bridges. Ready kees are!
This way broken GSM can have themselves fulfilled you still an useful aim. The strip conductive frost is also used possibly in other types of GSM's, to link the printplaat with the LCD. Thus have you broken GSM or this way, certainly once open obtain and check! With one Nokia3210 you 3 can unlocken, perhaps even more à 4 CPU's!
This method has been tested and well was. On less than 30mins XP1600 + the unlocked was. Seconden remove! of the unlocking last only one couple

The unlocking procedure
The principle of unlocking is now very easy, as you can see in the next pictures.
(Comment: A series of pics are shown, with the whole unlocking procedure and some arrows here and there to mark the important parts of the whole process.)
Because the block of conductive gel won't flow, it is important NOT to fill the lasercuts before unlocking. This prevents from doing a lot of work, since it is possible to place the gel block right over the bridges.
After that you must cut the gel block to the right size. The core of the CPU is about 0.8mm higher than the package, so the gel block must be cut very precise at a maximum height of 1mm.
Use sticky tape to fix the cut gel block onto the L1 bridges and your ready.
(Comment: Take a look at the last pic on the second page to see how it looks.)
In this way, you can use a broken cell phone for something meaningfull. The gel block might be used in other cell phone types to connect the board to the LCD. So, if you have a broken cell phone, open it and check! With one Nokia 3210 you can unlock 3 to 4 CPU's, maybe more.
this method is tested and approved. In less than 30 minutes, the XP1600+ was unlocked. Removing the lock itself only took a few seconds.
With thanks to Entuscan for translation the original article from Taiwanese, and ofcourse the Nokia 3210.
