Hi,

I (will shortly) have a Motorola V545 phone locked to the UK Orange network.

I have a serial data cable for the Motorola V series. The label on the phone end reads V66, and there's a switch marked F/M. This should work with the V545, right?

I'm a bit of a newbie, so maybe someone can help:
- What software, commercial or otherwise, is needed to unlock a V545 via a serial cable?
- Is it possible to completely back up the phone's flash ROM over the serial cable? I'd like to do that if possible, so I can completely restore the phone to its "as purchased" state in the future.
- I'd also like to debrand the phone, and upload Java games, ringtones etc. Is that possible over a serial cable?
