Hi there!

Have read the threads with great interest having just acquired one of the XDA2 machines. I must say that I was in somewhat of a moral dilemma as to whether I should have my machine unlocked.

The reason being you see is that I work for the O2 company and therefore am aware that officially we do not unlock these devices as they are the O2 brands flagship product and we are of course hesitant about letting any other network get their grubby little paws on revenue that rightfully should belong to us.

Having said that of course, when I found out that it would cost nearly 200 pounds to transfer my nice easy number from Vodafone (yes I know....why dont I have an O2 number if I am extolling their virtues?...good question...but that would be an ecumenical matter...lol) I promptly forgot about the ethical high ground and took a quick saunter down the hill to the lower moral suburbs and quickly downloaded this fine piece of software and said a quick blessing for the gifted people who created it.

Many thanks guys and keep up the good work.

Lets talk about the morality of O2 shall we, I bought 2 contract sims from their online service, the selling point being the ability to access the bill on the web, at any time I was supposed to be able to see how much of a bill was being run up, this was important to me as one sim was for my 13 year old granddaughter. To cut a long story short, I was never able to access the account, I sent numerous emails which took weeks to get an automatic response that did not address the problem, I paid O2 in excess of £1000 in a matter of months without once seeing a bill, I then asked that the service be terminated because of their inability to supply the service they were selling. This was refused by a very bolshie female, eventually I got through to a manager at 50p a minute, he terminated the contract, I then got a final bill which I refused to pay in the absence of any itemisation, something I had never had, they put the debt collecters on my case, after many long and fruitless phone calls to the debt agency they referred it back to O2 as they were not aware that it was a disputed bill. I have no way to contact O2 except online but I have no reference or membership because they have blacklisted my name and address. My granddaughter saved up Mars chocolate wrappers in a promotion between Mars and O2, she registered them onsite giving my address, guess what, they took her wrappers and sent nothing as her application for O2 payg sim services were "not acceptable" owing to a credit search. O2 are in my opinion a bunch of faceless robbers that hide behind credit agencies and premium rate lines. This is the same O2 that were allowing people to register stolen credit cards to topup and refused to close the loophole even when aware of it, they had to make thousands of refunds to innocent cardholders, was their any apology, you have to be joking, the refunds were not given automatically, the cardholder had to apply to get their money back. Happy new year O2, hope you choke on your ill gotten profits. :evil:
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] UK badboy:
This is great everyone! The only problem I was having with my XDAII was O2 :P Does this unlock system work with dual sim cards? If so can you be connected to both phone lines (and networks) at once?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] cruisin-thru:
The dual sim can only use one line, I think you have to switch off radio then switch back on to switch between the 2 sims. The unlock is not affected by the dual sim and will unlock as usual.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] raffles:
in reply to cruisin........What can I say...you have in a nut shell summed up the very sentiments of guys like me who are not faceless and have to try to assist customers like yourself when they come in to see us at the high street stores and what can we do about their concerns?....bupkiss thats what! Some gifted idiot in the upper echelons of the company decided it would be a great idea to seperate O2 retail (us at the high street stores) from O2 online (those faceless robbers who do indeed hide behing credit agencies and premium rate lines) and still call it O2 as if they are anything to do with us lot in the stores. The real kicker is that even we only have the premium rate number we can call to try to sort out any problems and we still have to wait in line. Trust me.....even we have difficulty in swallowing this as it is us poor sods who tend to get the ****ty end as we are the human face to this company :x . On behalf of us retail monkeys I would just like to say that we may not be perfect either but at least you can come and give the guy who sold it you a hard time until its sorted. Some days the motto for O2 online should be "caveat emptor" (buyer beware for those not inclined toward latin)

I only hope you are with a better airtime provider now and anyone else reading this......come and see us instore and speak to a human. You may still have to wait but at least we wont bore you with music and insincere apologies every forty seconds :) .

GREAT! But how to get rid of the O2 stuff permanently??

Guys - GREAT JOB!!

Easy & straight forward and worked first time like a charm.

Donation on its way.

But.....

Now Ive unlocked my O2 branded XDA2, is there anyway of getting rid of the o2 stuff once and for all??

If you hard reset, it chucks all the O2 active stuff back on the beast.

Any ideas??
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] UK badboy:
Just remove "O2.lnk" in windows/startup
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] kevwright:
Could not find O2.lnk in mine, but deleting active.lnk seems to also do it.

Thanks XDa devolpers, cracking the unlock sold me an XDA 2 today (already had one before and unlocked it by arguing with O2 and paying all contract up front plus £15)

25 euro just donated as that is good value IMHO.

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] jr_thewiz:

Cant find either on mine :-(

Am I missing something?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] UK badboy:
sorry it is active.lnk- I got confused cos its got O2 on the icon.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] jr_thewiz:
Nope, definately cannot see either on mine.

This is definately in My Device\Windows\Startup ???

I used Remove Programs to get rid of the two O2 applications,

and then used File Explorer to get rid of the V2R directory.

This works fine so long as the battery isnt removed or goes DEAD flat.

If it does, the unit restarts from scratch and loads all the O2 stuff back :-(

Bit of a pain, but I suppose I can live with it.

Reset after unlocking and swapping Sim

Thanks for the unlock method it worked perfectly. However after I did it and inserted the non o2 card and it asked for an unlock code,

I thought I would see what happens when I swap sims in and out.

So:

I removed the Orange Sim and put in the o2 sim= NO PROBLEM

I removed the o2 sim and pit in the Orange sim=NO PROBLEM

I removed the Orange sim and put in the o2 sim= HARD RESET

Was this a freak error or did I do this somehow? or should I do a full backup each time before changeing sims?

One question:

Would unlocking the device void the warranty?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] cruisin-thru:
Neepas, no, you can use xdaunlock, xda manipulator, or failing that the special edition rom 1.2.

Nuts, no it wouldnt as far as I know. You can relock it anyway.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] neepas:
cruisin-thru,

i tried the xdaunlock but i got an error response

"error getting unlock code" :(
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] cruisin-thru:
So try manipulator, if that doesnt work then install the special edition rom 1.2.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] plop:
hi, i know this sounds stupid, or maybe im duin sumit wrong. i have xp and have followed the instructions carefully. everytime i put it in bootloader mode and try and run the program after typing in yes the window for unlock program closes and nothing happens. the activesync doesnt recognis, so i think it is disabled. how do i exactlly disable via file etc?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] W4XY:
Ok, can you run the program from a separate command box? Go to startup -> Run and type cmd.exe. Then in the black box go to the directory where you saved the program. For example

cd c:\temp

Or make it easy and save the progam in C:\. Then type

xda2unlock

. Now maybe there is some more information as the window doesn't close.

It could still be something else. What is the version of your radio software?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] SIM:
drivers

I have a used Locked XdaII

when i attach my xdaII to cradel its asking for drivers.

Re: XDA Unlocking

We can always try, but an explanation of what actually is happening would help. What version of windows on your PC, what version of PocketPC, radio software? Is there an error message? Try to run xda2unlock.exe from a command prompt (cmd.exe).

reading second block...

The phone seems unlocked already!

Thats all.

Can you help me now.

Thanks for yours strive in advance.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] W4XY:
some suggestions

Are you sure it is locked? Have you tested this with another SIM?

Maybe it is a different lock as this tool only gets the code for the network lock. Maybe we could see if it is another lock.

Do you know the specific radio version? You can find it under settings -> system -> Device information.

Also you could try and collect the information as specified in:

Hello

I have Radio Version 1.10.00.

Thanks for yours strive with me.

Re: UNLOCK Problem

Ok, this might be a newer Radio version that changed something.

I'm not sure what you mean here, but it could be usefull if you could read the thread in the previous message. Can you try the AT commands?

Another possibility is write the GSM rom to an SD card, but that is a bit involved. Also to get it off the SD card I'm not sure what tools you can use. To write it to the SD card you can do this from the bootloader. Go in the bootloader with a terminal program and issue the d2s command:

d2s 60000000 00300000

SD:Waiting for card insert.........
CMD3 for SD, it's OK, ready to get RCA from response.
SD:Detected one card
SD:ready for transfer OK
Total card size=1D30000ze=0
****************
Store image to SD/MMC card successful.

If you can do this get in touch with me to get the data off of the SD card.

I can image this is a bit involved, but otherwise I can not help. It might be they improved the Radio rom against reading the unlock code.

Help please, Unlocked on T-mobile???

I have just used the Unlock tool for the XDAII (great job guys) and it works a treat but when I put my T-mobile card in it I can't make any calls, it says call ended within seconds after dialing. I have tried both GSM & GPRS. In fact I can't even find the page to change these settings (if there is one) as I assume there are set as O2 by default. Am I missing something, I'm new to the XDAII and not too technical and I only got it today so would appriciate any reply given in full detail.

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] Analyst:
T Mobile working

I am using my T Mobile SIM since Months in my XDA2 and never had any problems. I also have the GPRS Settings and am able to access the Internet. I have notived that the T-Mobile GPRS Speed is a lot faster than O2, maybe because hardly anyone uses GPRS on T-Mobile.

And by the way, GSM is the Frequency/Network used for the Voice calls and GPRS is responsible for your Internet Connection via the GSM Network.

I rarely used to get also the message from T-Mobile 'calls are currently not connected to this number' when using ANY Handset. That is actually a 'feature' by T-Mobile when their lines are very busy. This does tend to happen (luckily not too often anymore) when you are trying to get through to a specific number usually.

If you are still experiencing the T-Mobile problems, what I would suggest is try another Network SIM (perhaps Orange from a mate) in your XDA2 and see if the phone really is unlocked properly. Alternatively carry out a Hardreset (Hold down Power Button and use the stylus to do the usual reset; make sure you backup before as ALL data on the main device will be wiped!) and before installing any applications at all, use your T-Mobile SIM.

All the best.

I updated the first post to reflect the fact that radio version 1.10.xx can not be unlocked as of yet with the current xda2unlock.exe
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] fk1team:
I've goten this to work as well on o2 xda II, however with slightly different steps

Mu issue was that after doing hard reset and placsing in cradle, ActiveSync couldn't find my xda II. SO I used following steps:

1. The XDA II needs to be put in bootloader mode.

NOTE: THIS WILL WIPE ALL YOUR DATA SO FIRST BACK-UP!

You enter the bootloader by holding the Power button and the Action button

while pressing the stylus in the reset hole on the bottom.

In the bootloader mode, the display will be gray and say Serial at the top.

2. Next put the device in the USB cradle. FORGET THIS NEXT BIT - "The display will now say USB

and the first time Windows will detect a new device. " - IT STILL WORKS IF YOU IGNORE THIS STEP (in "")

3. Disable USB in Active Sync in 'File -> Connection Settings'

4. run xda2unlock.exe

;) -thanks a lot guys !!

cheers
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development] rwilkins:
This looks like a great unlock method thanks to the xda developers. I have a question. As I previewed the instructions it would have me load the XDA Rom Special 3.17.

I have seen discussion that the Siemens pc2003 upgrade will fail due to the rom unmatch. Is that true?

Do I attempt to upgrade pc2003 first and then load the 3.17. But that would move me to an earlier rom version, owuld it not?

Do I load the 3.17 special rom , unlock my sim and then reload my A.21.02 that the upgrade expects?
