update

Allo everyone

I have been working in the 2.21 rom problem ,and so far no luck.

So it is official if you have a rom version that is 2.21 it cannot be unlocked wit any free tool from here .

Your only solution is http://www.imei-check.co.uk/supp

I have made a new rom os version 2,21 and with an ipl 1.6 and spl 1.6 and have installed in my machine

[cid unlocked} but the rom is somehow tied to the spl therefore it cannot cid unlocked, so far.

As for people with roms below 2,21 if u cannot unlock your phone is either that there is something wrong with your phone {or you, my inbox is full of request for help } ,the biggest problem is because people did not unzip the contents of lokwiz correctly therefore it does not work, also I cannot predict what you have running in your pc like firewalls ,anti-virus etc even if you have Microsoft word running while upgrading a rom it won’t work, somehow it interferes with the rom update. I have helped unlock 26 wizards thru msn messenger with roms below 2.21 and all been successful ,so stop rushing a read the steps before trying to unlock. lately I received a few email with abuse regarding unlocking, apparently this people have a brick now , because they have been playing with ipl and spl. When you try my steps to unlock there is 2 outcomes; one you are successful ,and 2 you are not but it does not turns your phone into a brick, so I have decided to drop this project ,I will no longer work on it . so you will have to wait to machine good or use the above company.

Regards

Data Crashes

you can fixe data crash this way.

by using Lokiwiz02b there is an option to lock the phone again

when you run lockwiz it creats a file called;lock_backup.bin so if you restore that file back to the phone the data crash will go away.then you can have as many tryes u want to unlock the phone.this has been posted before.copy the file lock_backup.bin from Lokiwiz03 and put it in the Lokiwiz02b folder then lock the phone.

CID Unlock

Just joined. First post. Obvious newby. :oops:

I purchased an "unlocked" Cingtel 8125 in the US and brought it back to Singapore. Plugged in my Singapore Telecom (SingTel) SIM. Phone works well all over Asia but some of the Cingtel internet / mail functions are incompatible with the service here and I would like to upgrade the ROM if it will clear this up.

Since the phone is apparently "unlocked" and obviously working with the SingTel SIM and local GPRS, do I still need to try to do a CID unlock before running a ROM upgrade? Will the new ROM upgrade posted in this forum enable "push mail" etc.?

Re: SOLUTION FOUND -CID/sim UNLOCKING FOR WIZARD WITH AKU2 R

It is not just 2.21 and above. I believe its from the first AKU2 production rom. I've tried this with my kjam at 2.16.9.1 WWE (the latest shipped rom) and it does NOT work. The (no_id) update tool starts, the device goes into the red/green/blue screen showing SPL/IPL of 2.16.0001, then the update tool comes back (after a few seconds of talking with the phone) with an error of:

ERROR[300]: INVALID UPDATE TOOL

This Update Utility cannot be used for your PDA Phone. Please get newer Update Utility.

I've tried running the update on XP as well as W2k, both running ActiveSync 4.1, didn't seem to make a difference.

My device info:

ROM: 2.16.9.1 WWE (dated 6 Feb 06)

Re: SOLUTION FOUND -CID/sim UNLOCKING FOR WIZARD WITH AKU2 R

Ok. I found a newer noid update utility, and the upgrade/downgrade happened. However, now I seem to have a dead phone.

The HTC splash screen comes, then stays on the "button" flash screen with the version infos being:

IPL: 1.01

SPL: 2.16.0001

GSM: 01.12.10

OS: 1.5.4.2

Sigh. Help?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] moghisi101:
what version is the noID upgrade? v2.5.x?

If not, that's proabably why you have a dead device. Also, be sure that you didn't try to downgrade IPL/SPL as some other have had problems...

If all else fails. Try reflashing with original ROM

Keep us posted

Re: SOLUTION FOUND -CID/sim UNLOCKING FOR WIZARD WITH AKU2 R

it works wit all roms below 2.21.And that is A fact. When i unlocked mine2 wizards they had the same firmware as yours and that was when i found that we could unlocked cid and i have also unlocked several with rom 2.18 with out any probems, maybe the downgrade rom is curupted somehow,it would not suprise me since it keeps moving all the time on the ftp.if you can see the ipl and spl then your device is not dead.

Re: SOLUTION FOUND -CID/sim UNLOCKING FOR WIZARD WITH AKU2 R

You are probably right about the corrupt rom. I put it in the bootloader, and ran the update again, same result (although I was very happy that the flash went ahead).

I was going to find the original rom to flash back for now. I needed to use the phone so I took the battery and sim card out, and now the device won't switch on! The behaviour is exactly the same as: http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=51101&highlight=brick

Thoughts?

This is the thread I got the new noid updater from:

http://xdaforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=50768&highlight=lokiwiz

And it did run and did the flash, just that the device didn't boot past the "button" splash screen. And as mentioned in my last post, the device now won't turn on. Sigh.

Re: SOLUTION FOUND -CID/sim UNLOCKING FOR WIZARD WITH AKU2 R

Another possible reason for the downgrade rom and the no id update utilities not working in certain devices is the following

As most people are aware when a manufacture releases a device the customers find minor bugs which are hardware related so, the batch of wizards shipped last month has a different hardware version[MINOR MODIFICATIONS] that the ones shipped last year .an example is the playstation 2 they all look the same but when you want to fit a modded chip you have to chose the right chip to work with the corresponding hardware revision ,even dooh all the machines look the same. a playstation 2 bought in 2004 cannot be modded with a chip made for 1 released in 2005/6 because of the different hardware revisions .and that my friends is one of the reasons that maybe it does not work in certain devices
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Sleuth255:
I pulled a brand new 8125 that was upgraded with one of Summiter's excellent cooked AKU2 roms, and CID unlocked it just fine using this technique. Prior to that, I couldn't "sidegrade" to the base QTEK AKU 2 release (I like the Qtek splash screen better than the fugly Cingular splash) until I did this.

I have the same problem, I did use the newromupdateutility_wizard_noid.exe with custom ROM (Button's) to flash my O2 Mini S. The process went OK and when the phone restarted i got

IPL 1.0. xx

SPL 2.21.xx

OS 1.54xx

and a boot screen with a glass of beer

Then the phone hang up because of incompatible SPL and OS

I took out the battery trying to get into bootloader and reflash with another ROM but the phone did not power on. Now its totally a DEAD BRICK. Somebody said that the bootloader was broken and can be reflashed only via JTAG but I dont know what is JTAG. Does anyone have any idea!!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] titus666:
Sorry to hear you have the same problem as me. Looks like you started with a 2.21 ROM in the first place though, and that seems to be known not to work.

I can't imagine the bootloader being "broker" as it was fine before the battery was removed. I noticed the power button was not working before I took the battery out (ie, it would not switch off at the splash screen), so I suspect that the bootloader is actually not responding to a power-on/off signal from the button. I suspect if the device is opened up, there would be a way to trigger a restart, but that of course would void the warranty completely (as if flashing another rom doesn't!).

Re: SOLUTION FOUND -CID/sim UNLOCKING FOR WIZARD WITH AKU2 R

Faria,

Just wanted to confirm that when you did the flash with 2.16/2.18 roms, was the IPL and SPL 2.16.0001? And if so when you finished, did both the IPL and SPL get downgraded?

Looking at Button's rom, clearly the rom has 1.01 IPL and SPL, and with my flash (and the others who have not worked like Tamagochi and gambino (from another thread)), the IPL was downgraded, but the SPL version remained 2.16.0001. (Although Tamagochi and gambino both had 2.21 roms, which you have already reported as not working).

I wonder if you are right about the minor hardware mod comment before, and maybe a combination of newer hardware, oldest IPL and new SPL just can't work together. I also wonder if it is because the IPL is too old that the power button cannot control/start the device. Ie, there is power etc, but the power button isn't actually functional after the older IPL was installed.

Re: SOLUTION FOUND -CID/sim UNLOCKING FOR WIZARD WITH AKU2 R

Allo titus666

I have just installed rom version 2,25 rom my k-jam unlocked.

Yes when a downgraded the devices with 2,16/18 roms they downgraded the ipl/spl as well for the corresponding roms.

I been doing a lot of work on this and this is what a found

I put together a rom with os 2,21 and ipl1,6 then a flashed into my wizard it work but It kept giving the it writedisk error ,so I incorporated spl 1.6 into it after flashing a noticed that the radio no longer worked ,so I installed a radio version 1xxx the wizard became very unstable.

After all that I still the cid unlock commands would not work.

Somehow the ipl/spl and os are intertwined together that’s why I had no luck.

I do agree with you ,the rom 2.21 probably has a way of recognising all parts of the rom ,a new addiction probably from the operators to stop us unlocking it, so maybe when an ipl 1xxx sends the power button command to turn it on ,and the spl/os is 2xxx it does not recognise the code.

Or it could be a minor hardware revision to stop us.

I have also discovered something else;

The lokwiz tool does not unlock the phone totally it only patches certain areas ,for instances’ ,even with a wizard cid unlooked with rom 2xxx we cannot change the splash screen with awizard tools but if I try to do that on my wife’s wizard that has a rom 1,5 pt I have no trouble changing the splash screen, so that means there is certain areas of the device that are not unlocked. there is a lot of thing at play here. Now if you use imeicheck website to unlock your device it unlocks everything including the bit that stops from changing the splash screen. also several people that have SIM unlocked find that they are simlocked again when upgrading to other than their operator rom.

Have any one tried to install the OS only no ipl,spl from another rom for instances rom 2,25? it will not unlock but a least u have an up to date rom and there is no danger of a dead device, because you will not be messing with the boot loader, as long the ipl spl and os are the same numeric braket, do not mix ipls.spl 1xx with os 2xxx or vice versa.

I’m collecting data of the devices that downgrade does not work .the we will see if they have something common.[ Date of purchase from what carrier was supplied etc..]
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Tamagochi:
Re: SOLUTION FOUND -CID/sim UNLOCKING FOR WIZARD WITH AKU2 R

If your SPL is 1.xxx initially, you can unlock CID with Lokiwiz or aWizard and then reflash with any ROM you want. But if the SPL is initially 2.xx or higher you cannot unlock CID using the above tools therefore cannot flash any ROM. So you have to downgrade the SPL. And this is why the tragedy happened.

I've got a US T-Mobile MDA that I upgraded in the past to xelecin's 2.17 ROM. The device information screen on the phone shows:

ROM version: 2.17.7.2 WWE

ROM date: 2/10/06

Radio version: 02.07.10

Protocol version 413.1.03

When I do a soft reset, the boot shows:

IPL: 2.17

SPL: 2.17

I was thinking of trying xelecin's newest 2.21 update...so the questions:

Is my device one that has been found to fail using this method?

What's the advantage of doing this unlock?

Should I do this unlock prior to trying the 2.21 ROM from xelecin?

Will I be able to go to the newest T-Mobile update when it's released?

Re: SOLUTION FOUND -CID/sim UNLOCKING FOR WIZARD WITH AKU2 R

The 2.2x rom obseration is probably true. I had a 2.1x rom however, and there seems to be some inconsistency (maybe due to minor hardware differences). Basically, my device is behaving like the others with the 2.2x roms - When downgrading, the IPL is downgraded, but the SPL is NOT. This I am guessing is why the device would not function properly, the IPL & SPL mismatching (although I am sure I saw another thread where someone else had that situation but the device worked, so its probably a combination of IPL/SPL/rom).

What is strange is that you have had devices that came with 2.1x IPL/SPL/rom, and when you did the downgrade process, IPL/SPL/rom all were downgraded.

Btw, I am pretty sure I have to send the device back for warranty repair. I'm just going to get the REAL charger (which is at work) and try to see if the device will power up with that plugged in, if not, off to the service centre it goes.

My next dilemma will be if/when I get a fixed device back, do I flash again?!?! I never had any problems when I flashed my XDA II (that I am still using now!)

Re: SOLUTION FOUND -CID/sim UNLOCKING FOR WIZARD WITH AKU2 R

The mismatch or incompability here i think is between SPL and OS but not between IPL and SPL. Thats why some devices have IPL 1.x and SPL + OS 2.xx and still work well.
