Important !

From 11.06.2018 SETool2 credits will not work for NTool anymore, only NTool credits will work for NTool.
if you downloaded NTool not from NTool support site, then make sure that your NTool.ini looks like :



[main]
server=srv01.dontexist.com
port=8814

[the_laser]

due to human error i'm set credits cost wrongly, so one phone flashing/service cost was 20 credits instead of 10.
all wrongly taken credits returned to respective accounts

- supported models : Nokia 105, Nokia 110, Nokia 215, Nokia 220, Nokia 225, Nokia 3310 3G




for Identify, Service functions of Nokia 3310 3G phone, you must create special diagnostic cable.
it is very simple - get usual USB cable and cut PIN 1 (VBUS/VCC) line ( usually red line )




Important note for UNISOC drivers :

Before drivers install :

1.
i'm strongly recommend to uninstall all and any existing UNISOC drivers on system :

for this you can run, according to your system, either Drivers\FP_Drivers\DriverUninstall64.exe or Drivers\FP_Drivers\DriverUninstall32.exe ( as Administrator )
I'm not sure that it will uninstall older or modified UNISOC drivers, so to cleanup system completely, get RAPR (https://github.com/lostindark/DriverStoreExplorer/releases),
run it as Administrator and delete all Ports ( COM & LPT ) drivers with manufacturers "Spreadtrum","TNS", "UNISOC" ( check "Force deletion" )

2.
Nokia 3310 3G driver signed with expired certificate, so in order to install FP_Drivers_Zouk, you must restart PC with driver signature enforcement DISABLED.

How to ( for recent windows versions ) :

settings -> update and security -> recovery -> Advanced startup
after restart select "disable driver signature enforcements"

For windows 7 just press F8 during startup, then go to “Advanced Boot Options”.
and select “Disable Driver Signature Enforcements”

Only after this you can proceed with drivers installation.
Take note that signature enforcements only disabled until next reboot.


After you restarted with disabled signature enforcements, proceed with drivers installation :

There are 3 UNISOC drivers folders :

Drivers\FP_Drivers
Drivers\FP_Drivers_Zouk

inside these folders, just run setup DriverSetup.exe ( as Administrator ).
If asked, press "Install driver anyway".

Drivers\FP_Drivers_Queen

inside this folder, if you have 64-bit windows, go to amd64 and run dpinst.exe ( as Administrator )
if you have 32-bit windows, go to x86 and run dpinst.exe ( as Administrator )
If asked, press "Install driver anyway"

[the_laser]

Nokia Tool v0.060

Warning ! Credits charged EACH time.




for Identify, Service functions of Nokia 3310 3G phone, you must create special diagnostic cable.
