installing generic FW to airprime 7355 for T-Mobile

Hello,

I’m trying to install the generic FW on my Airprime card 7355, so I can use my T-mobile sim. When I run the .exe file, I get the error 51. Below is the error message. Any advice on how to resolve this?

thanks,
matt

Hi,
From which firmware version to which firmware you are trying to upgrade?

Hello,

Thank you for your reply. I was able to get it working. The fw was SWI9X15C_01.05.11.07. I uninstalled the Lenovo driver update, then tried again to install the oem fw, and it worked. I then reinstalled the drivers and my t-mobile card was there!

I’m not really sure what fixed it, but it did.

Thank you.

Great :smiley:
