If the phone requests unlock code when you put a locked SIM, the code is: 22051978.

When put in other sim card, the message says 'You have tried 25 times, please wait until timeout'. I don't know how long the 'timeout' means, but everytime I waited at least 5 minutes and nothing happens. And everytime I run the HERM_Unlock_v2a.exe file, it returned with SUCCESS message and then I put in other sim card and it will add on(5 each time) to the number I have tried. Still there is no sign of unlocking it with the code 22051978... Please help, Pof.

I'd recommend you to edit your post and remove instructions!!

Otherwise HTC would remove this feature from new devices and all of us would get problems changing CIDs, unlocking devices, etc. That is why this info (and some other commands) are not published here!

hey POF...thanks for your work...was wondering how the progress was coming along to use this on bootloader 1.06...i'm not really in a rush to unlock thats why i'm waiting for the fix for 1.06 so i don't have to downgrade to 1.04 just got a cingular 8525 last week...thanks in advance....

strikeIII, I am working on it with the help of two good friends, this is new for us and takes some time to learn... we've modified haret code to adapt it for the matter, we can jump into IPL and load the bootloader on device fine. When we load SPL in SDRAM the IPL overwrites it with SPL read from NAND, so we had to modify IPL in memory to prevent this. First approach has been to put noops (no operation) in these instructions, but the device seems to hang and we are stuck here at the moment.

pof, how can I turn my device in seclevel=0 and how can I change my SuperCID back to the original CID (just in case I have to send it back under warranty)?

I've been searching the forum, didn't find it...

EDIT: Perhaps found a solution myself (?): when I use a previous SIM&CID unlocker (HTC_Hermes_SIM_Unlock_v2 or HTC_Hermes_SIM_Unlock_v1), then flash back to my original ROM and then my SuperCID will be the original again??? You think this will work???
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] J.S.:
I found out a very simple solution for it already but POF always deletes my posts. Instead of simply using a single command to set your CID back POF wants everybody to use a suspious tool he wrote himself. Since it is packed with UPX for WindowsCE and there is no unpacking option yet you can not look inside this tool directly. Maybe it contains malware/trojans or spyware.

I think we should start a reversing thread for the (possible?) POF malware tool.

I only can recommend to do a hardreset after each use of POF tool just to be sure his malware is removed. Unfortunately his solution requires to flash something to the device. Maybe there is a hidden monitoring included in this flash update.

If you have to do so I can write a little wince app for you.

J.S. the app uses almost the same code as HTC Universal unlocker app, i did't wrote it. If you don't trust it you don't have to run it, use unlocker v1.

The reason for this is already told to you, and yesterday I tried to contact you but you disallow my PMs. This is what I wanted to say to you:

POF:

for sure I not work for any of this illegal? companies. I only love to play with this gadgets in my spare time. I'm in this field much longer than you and also had the luck to speak with real developers like itsme in the past.

To clarify my point of view: What you did (stealing work of somebody else) is something what never happend to this forum before. It will move all the real developers on this site in a bad light. This is just my point of view. Nobody has to like it.

But now you did something more danerous and bad than this. You censor real developer information. This will destroy the community here since now some so called professionals decide who will get information and who not.

A community is to share knowledge! But again just my point of view. For me it looks like I have to move on and maybe I have to create my own site/forum which will not hide information.

J.S. I never hided how this unlocker was developed, the full process was explained in the reverse engineering thread, I also don't work for any company related to anything of this and I admit I am new into this world and learning every day, you can see I did just 6 posts from March 2005 (when I joined the site) until August 2006 when I bought my first Hermes. As Hermes was a new device and there was not much information I started asking questions and itsme kindly helped me. Then I just started to add everything I found on the wiki to let others know, and I started to research about bootloader and everything. As I said somewhere previously I was not interested in unlocking, my goal was to have a Linux port working on the Hermes, but I don't have the knowledge to do so, that's why I started researching on Hermes hardware and everything that could give me a hint on Hermes internals, since there's no much specifications from HTC. Reversing the imei-chekc unlocker was just part of this, and I thought publishing it may help other people understand how the Hermes works and probably join the development around this device, but I never wanted anyone to leave the forum because of my attitude, I really feel sorry if you do so and I will think twice which "effects" it can have on people what I do before I post something here from now on, that has probably been my mistake, sorry about that.

Regarding the censoring of the commands, I already told in my previous comment why I did it, I was asked to do so and I think it is fair, it's not that I want to hide information but some things are better not revealed if we want to be able to use them in the future. It's not that I didn't knew the command and was furious because you published it, of course I knew it and it's easily found looking for strings in SPL, but please understand that probably HTC may see this and would change the method in new devices, and that's what I was trying to prevent by censoring your comment after listening to advice from people I respect for their work.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] arc:
J.S. I also asked pof to edit thread.

Why? On this question has answered mamaich.

99% people in this thread - ask the ready decision.

But only 1% something do and research.

HTC also looks this forum and close all greater and more possibilities for modernization ROM.

You see HTC took away the commands for reception of the image OS on SD card. You also see that in new bootloader for Hermes is removed commands for access to radio.

This little ?

If you long ago that you saw that unlock for Universal was done 7 months.

You want to pay 100$ for unlock what does imei-check? and send the device to him?

You see how quick was made Unlock for Hermes and Breeze.

We do not get for unlock money though we spend on this their own money and time. See on device Startek -is there changed method for cryptooperation CID and you can not use the old method as for Typhoon ,Prophet. Startrek is released more earlier but we have not unlock on it.

99% knowledges are said here -and only 1 % hidden. You see the thread about change IMEI - she was conceived only for Turkish consumers - but that we type - a big part of people which ask what change IMEI not from Turkish. Why him to change IMEI?

Sorry bad english :)

The People no need of the angry remarks! J.S. wanted to give the knowledges but we asked only to take these knowledges out of public access. Nobody does not forbid to send the knowledges. All who takes part in development unlock are changed by knowledges and this much well. All also understand the requests when their ask not to publish that or other knowledges publicly.J.S we value your discovery -simply understand our request.

I think later this will is published -but why complicate itself work when possible do this more light way. Simply value time of the people which do and research.

Using "unlocked" X01HT in America

I would just like to say again thanks to everyone in this forum for all of the help. But I got one last question. My girlfriend and I have both bought softbank x01ht phones in Tokyo and are currenty in the states and are trying to use them with cingular. Using pofs method I was able to unlock and install an English rom. The cinguar SIM was basically plug and play for me.

My gf are the other hand is Japanese and preferred to keep the japanese OS. Plugging in the CIngular SIM caused some errors. Well actually not errors but the USIM card code screen came up... but I can still recieve calls on the new number and recieve text messages. But other than that I cant get past the stupid Code screen. ANyone got any ideas?

Thank you.

Pof

I am new to this site and thanks to all of your effort.

Sorry I have no idea what IPL or SPL is, but I got known onething related to this device and hope it will help.

In general, OS will be booting via NOR flash on cellular phone, but this device is booting via NAND Flash, as my understanding.

(that is why we can tell it takes time to "start" if you compare your current cellular phone)

So OS program needs to be boot via NAND first and then read/write to SDRAM.

Hi Pof.

Excellent work on this program. I have a small problem which I tried looking for an answer here but couldn't find one. Please forgive me if I missed it somewhere as I don't want to take up any of your valuable time, but if you would be so kind to look at my problem.

1. I downgraded my Cingular 8525 from 1.0.6 to 1.0.4 and installed your program to unlock my phone.

2. At the end of your program I got an error 120 for incorrect CID. I thought this error would be acceptable so I re-flashed the phone with the latest ROM for Cingular bringing the bootloaded up to 1.0.6.

3. I then went on to test the unlock with a T-Mobile (USA) SIM card. The phone asked me for an unlock code.

4. I entered the number you provided in your instructions (22051978), however, the unlock buttons on the screen were still greyed out.

Is that the correct code for Cingular phones? Or did the error 120 from above mean my phone wasn't unlocked?

Thanks in advanced for answering my question.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] rsolomon:
I'm assuming you loaded the 1.30 ROM with 1.04 bootloader and radio 1.11. If you do that again, you should be able to see the Radio ROM version reported as 1.11 .

After you flash the patched Radio ROM you should have 1.16. Don't go any further until you get the Radio ROM to show 1.16 - without the patched Radio ROM you're not going anywhere! Once the Radio shows as changing from 1.11 to 1.16 you can run pof's v2a executable and you should be unlocked and SuperCID. Just for fun I'd personally try the T-mobile SIM *THEN* before going through the whole reflash business to get back to ROM 1.34.

HTH,
