Hi friends. I´ve one problem at unlock tytn. In one i put IPL_1_04_SPL_2_30_Olipro, and next i unlock whit Free HTC Hermes SIM & CID Unlocker *New* version v3a (gracias pof ;)), all ok.

But i read the post of pof, and i think to go last directly, but... htc don´t start, even in boot mode. Only green led start and blocks.

If manually start boot, colour screen is ok, and this info:

IPL-1.04

SPL-1.40.Olipro.

I repeat process and nothing, and i load the 2_30 olipro but process bar is too fast at 100% and don´t charge rom.

Solution is reflash whit complete rom?

Thanks!

problem with cingular 8525

Hi

Bought mine on ebay.

Ran HTC_Hermes_SIM_CID_Unlock_v3a

Device info says:

1. rom ver 2.15.502.3

2. rom date 4/9/07

3. radio 1.16

4. protocol 32.53.7018.

When i put different sim and boot - it 1st asks for a pin, and then says "network locked, enter unlock code"

I got a M3100v6aUnlock.exe from that co.uk site, ran it, rebooted after it asked for a pass file.

Now i don't get any unlock code requests, but when I put in a sim card (non cingular) it says "searching..." then if I try sim manager - "phone not ready - try in 15 sec".

I don't think it is normal...

any suggestions??!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] ratthing:
When you plug in a USB cable to it in bootloader mode, a message should show up on the bootloader screen indicating it's connected. At least this is the behavior of the Wizard, I would hope the Hermes is just as smart.

help - i think I killed my phone

Hi there,

I ran the unlock software on my Orange SPV M3100 as instructed. It got part way through the tri-colour screen bit and then switched off. It now will not switch on at all. This is quite scary, have I killed my new phone?

any ideas how I might reverse whatever I'e done?

many thanks,

Laura

** I took out the sim and I get a Green power light but nothing on screen. Is this encouraging?****

Scary indeed. I hope you will be able to recover it. You should read through this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=369434. Most of us managed to recover dead Hermes with the help of the instructions and experiences of others.

Success using Vista x64 Ultimate SP1 SPV-M3100 UK

I have just unlocked using this super software on my Vista x64 Ultimate SP1 system.

I have an Orange SPV-M3100 and used the last update on Orange Business here in the UK but it was still WM5 so thought I would use this unlocker.

I did remove the SIM first and then ran the unlock program.

Everything went as planned except I had to manually run the Unlock program from within the phone after the upgrade had taken place. Just used file explorer and ran the Unlock prog and selected both SIM and CID unlock.

Have stuck a vodaphone SIM in and all seems ok so far so am going to upgrade the ROM to finally get rid of all the Orange stuff (apart from the screen print on the front of the device.

Many many thanks for a great program.

Network locked or Blocked

Hey guys im still a newbie, just bought a Hermes 200 but I dont know if it's locked to a netork or if it's been blocked.

Reason is it works on one network in South Africa, however does not work on the other 2 networks. I have called them but they dont want to tell me if it has been blacklisted(stolen) or if its network locked.

I really need your help on this one:confused:. I have tried the HTC_Hermes_SIM_CID_Unlock_v3a but it did not work. Followed all the instructions including the youtube video but nothing seems to work.

I have unlocked my TyTN phone (thanks a lot)

At that time, I did not choose superCID. I still keep the file HERM_Unlock_v3.exe on my PPC, if I run it, I got 2 options as usual.

The point is after unlocking, I made a lot Hard-reset, reg modify, install... some file written by your program during unlocking process (if any) may disappear.

It is ok if now I run HERM_Unlock_v3.exe again, then choose superCID (no problem), then I can upROM as usual or make my phone a brick ?

Thanks.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] veyka:
Hard resets, ect, will not effect the unlocking tool. If you want to CID unlock ect, just run it again, I have accidental superCID'ed and sim unlocked twice and my phone works fine.

I have also re flashed my rom loads, shiped, and cooked, and they have all worked fine, just use the SD card method if your not sure about your comp/usb cables stability.

Flashing stuck at 21%

Hi everyone!

I've just started the SIM & CID Unlocker on my Cingular 8525 running the latest AT&T ROM.

Right now, after starting the RUU, the progress bar on both the screen & RUU both stay at 21%...feels like indefinitely. It's been stuck like this for at least 20 mins.

Does it take that long?

What should I do?

Stop the unlocking process?

Let it stay this way?

Please advise me as I'm clueless what I should do now.

I'm afraid that if I pull the cord now, it'll brick the device.

Thanks!

Konker

Update:

I pulled the cord after an hour...proceeded to recover from the process with the Tri-color bootloader screen & it flashed successfully. :-)

Confirm unlock?

How can I confirm this worked if I don't have another sim card at my disposal? I followed the directions to the letter and got a successful ending. However, I rebooted and I have no idea how to check and see if it is really unlocked. Everything is working as it should but I would like to confirm it before I depend on it as unlocked. I checked off CID and SIM unlock and it seemed successful. I tried searching. Sorry if this is a redundant question.

So I bricked a friend's AT&T 8525 using this unlocker...any help appreciated:

Used the automated install, it got to the point where it says "if the radio install went alright...", i.e. I assume it was flashing the radio. It never got disconnected, there was not any hiccups in the flashing...it went through to 100% and shut down, never to return again. All it will do now is light up with the amber power light and black screen no matter what I try.

I have looked through the suggestions on upgrade problems and here are the results:

-soft reset: nothing...amber light, black screen

-KITL: nothing...amber light, black screen

-bootloader: nothing...amber light, black screen

-hard reset: very briefly flashes bootloader and gives me the hard reset options (R to Reset, X to not). If I choose reset, it will spend 2 seconds resetting and then go back to amber light, black screen; if I choose not, it will immediately go back to amber light, black screen.

Any suggestions/help/debug ideas much appreciated, because after scouring the forums I'm pretty sure this one's a goner...

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] Austin519:
Solution! I was able to actually pop up the hard reset screen, and instead of saying yes or no, get it to go directly into the bootloader. From there I flashed an official AT&T rom and I'm back in business. I'm totally not going to try this again.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Software Upgradin] piloncillo:
these are the first part of solution:

Problem 4: Device is stuck in bootloader mode (tri-color screen)

Important : Windows VISTA users need to make a change to their system to successfully use many ROM packages. See Mr. Vanx's guide here

If you are using Windows XP or Windows 2000, you MUST have the Microsoft .net framework installed on your computer.

Disable ActiveSync: connections -- settings -- uncheck "Allow USB Connections"

Remove the battery, put it back in, connect the USB cable, power on the unit (this should allow the USB port to be opened again)

Wait a minute or two, if you get a message that device cannot be recognized just close and ignore it

Open mtty.exe and select "USB" from the dialog box, then hit Ok.

You should see a white screen, hit enter and you should see a prompt like this: "USB>"

Type set 14 0 (do not copy and paste!!!) and hit enter

Soft reset with stylus

OS ROM and radio version should be back and OS functional, the unit isn't a BRICK anymore!

if it doesn't unbrick, repeat all the steps but with the command set 16 0

http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...blems#problem4

these point phone is normal os but radio are gone.

will be continued.
