[HTC Excalibur] lukybandit:
UPDATE:

ok, i was playing around with HTC Trinity SIM_CID Unlocker downloadble at this link

http://rapidshare.com/files/20880414/HTC_Trinity_SIM_CID_Unlock_v1.zip

made by pof last night and even though i really didn't get anywhere, i was able to run the Unlocker on my device. It did not SIM or CID Unlock the device but here are the list of errors i got:

Couldn't list locked facilities

Couldn't reset facility01

Couldn't reset facility02

Couldn't reset facility04

Couldn't reset facility08

Couldn't reset facility10

Couldn't reset facility16

Couldn't reset facility32

Couldn't get CID1

Couldn't set SuperCID1

Couldn't get CID2

Couldn't set SuperCID2

____________

Final Result: Device SIM/Network lock removed and set to SuperCID

now i tried upgrading the rom image to WM6 after i did that and unfortunately i get the [ERROR 294] Invalid Vendor ID.

so it's clear that it did not work but here's the deal

the program did run so we could maybe use the same program layout, dump the rom's of locked and unlocked devices, compare them and maybe get somewhere.

now i'll try and get in touch with pof - the creator of this program for some help since he is an experienced guy and know's what he's doing. so the program runs but does not execute the code because obviously the code is different, we're looking to break in the code so for example:

Couldn't reset facility01

Couldn't reset facility02

Couldn't reset facility04

Couldn't reset facility08

Couldn't reset facility10

Couldn't reset facility16

Couldn't reset facility32

we can see that the program tries to reset facilities by doubling the facility number that is 01 to 02 to 04 etc. now i will have a look at r0p3's thread "SSPL possible for excalibur" and see if i can get some information there. I will upload the HTC Trinity SIM/CID Unlocker for those willing to look into this into more detail. if someone can tell me what exactly i'm looking for, i'm willing to go into the software specifics. i know it's not much but atleast we know the program works on our device, just does not break the code. I will also provide links to the WM6 ROM ImageS and to the ROM Bootloader update.

You can probably replace the resource on the exe with an excalibur IPL, or try to contact Des for help with SSPL.

So if I understand right I "only" would have to replace the Hermes IPL-Data with Excalibur IPL-Data in this SSPL and chances are good that it works.

So the SPL generated in RAM can be the same?

- r0p3

Of course, you must also patch it to bypass nbh signature checks... This was the "Holy Grail" achieved first by Des.

- Sleuth255

Yes I have read about this - the SSPL.exe generates a (patched) SPL in RAM so far I understand - and this SPL (generating code) can remain the same, am I right?

- r0p3

You need to patch ipl so it doesn`t hang on boot. we didn`t do it with breeze as it is the same as hermes. In spl you need to patch the cid check and nbh check function. Also, it`s omap, not samsung - the addresses are different

- sp3dev

ok that's the important posts from the thread.

hmm - I will see what I can figure out even though my programming skills are a little bit rusty...so all in all, that's all the information i thought we needed for now, if there's anything else i can add, please notify me. like i said i'm willing to put in the efforts and time involved in this project. let's do something about this as we are a big community and it disappoints me to see so many people not come forward, support or donate for the cause.

sorry about the long post. hope to see a free cid and sim unlock solution, that's all. Good Luck ! :)

p.s: r0p3, can you please upload your ROM dump image? thanks.
