Hello. First of all: You can get here extremely cheap the defenetly correct cable(i buy it with hope it could be the right one and had luck. Now everybothy can get a cheap one):

You could add/change that in the wiki.
How it is connected: GND: next to the cable and COM-Port-Pin nr 5 Rx: in the middle and COM-Port-Pin nr 2 Tx: at the smal end and COM-Port-Pin nr 3
And now my problem: I use ARM binary from here: http://embdev.net/articles/ARM_GCC_toolchain_for_Linux_and_Mac_OS_X
Everything compiled fine so far. I doesnt use any converter. Just use a real com Port from a older Notebook.
I run: ./osmocon -m c123 -p /dev/ttyS0 ../where_the_firmware_is/hello_world.bin
And get the result you see in the attachment.
Phone: It is an C118 with Firmware 1.0.75 and it is locked to Vodafone DE. I tried today nearly 5 hours all tools for windows i could find to unlock the phone. There was no tool that worked(some also worked with pressing on-button shortly in off-modus). Maybe the problem is in the computer i used (also older one with real com-port.notebook is linux-only). Maybe the phone.
Did i understand right, that when i get the output like here: http://bb.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/osmocon
I also could get somehow the unlock key? Can you tell me then how? The Unlock Code is always 8 Numbers. After 5 hours i also know that it could be in A:0x7FC300 or A:0x7FC600
Thanks so far
