Updating Pantech SKY Vega models

Hi guys!!

well  i am making an effort to solve the mystery behind updating vega phones firmware in an easy like cake way. first of all i would love to tell you that sky vega is a korean brand and unlike samsung and LG they prefer to keep models specific for koreans but the phone is awesome with a little problem regarding phone firmware update and uninstalling korean apps that is a trouble indeed for many of us who dont know korean or dont live in korea, many of us might have installed custom rom to get rid of the problems like sms limitation but the problem would be the motion sensors or things like that wont work on custom rom and why not using the features for which we have paid for well my point of view was exactly the same until i scoured for a way to update vega phones or remove sms limitations. well i am using Vega A870S so i have tried only on that but insinuated that it would work on other model as well if you follow me. so guys lets get you started.

well FYR this is the phone i am talking about. i am gonna update you step by step about the update.
STEP 1 (thanx to Mr. Sikandar Hayat of posting this on its website (http://www.cellrabta.pk/2013/10/how-to-offline-flash-unbrick-update-sky-vega-phones-all-models/)
Download the appropriate drivers for S/W Update and fastboot mode. here is the link just download and before connecting the phone install it, well for dummies i highly recommend using window XP for downgrading or upgrading any mobile firmwares coz many of us are not aware of playing with the securities and sometimes got stuck.

ok now once you have downloaded the appropriate drivers then make sure you have internet explorer 8 or 9 with dot net framework 4 installed. well you can google to download the above things

Now its time to download appropriate rom for your phone.
first of all download inf file
http://dmfile.curitel.com/self_binary/sky_binary/real/download.inf
open the file and search your phone model and follow the step

Once downloaded, open it up using Notepad you have already installed and you’ll find that it is a list of firmware files for all the Sky Vega phones. Press “Ctrl + F” and type your desire phone model. For example, if you want to download the firmware of Sky IM-A870S, type that in the find box and you’ll see these details:
[IM-A870S]
Version=S0218210
FileName=IM-A870S_S0218210.BINX
In the details listed above, our concerned part is “FileName” field. Copy it and add it to your download URL which we mentioned above. So now your desired download address will look like this:
http://dmfile.curitel.com/self_binary/sky_binary/real/IM-A870S/IM-A870S_S0218210.BINX
feel free to email me @ hassan.cheema@gmail.com if you fail to download appropriate rom. just tell me your phone model and i will send you download link.

Step2
