Stuck thanks to being mis-informed

So I'm stuck at the bootlegger screen. Tried flashing a couple different times but I have since found out that my P4300 is CID locked. I have the unlock code (now) and have other programs to unlock it from Unicel. Unfortunately Unicel is now longer in business so I cannot get the OEM ROM from them. Any tips??

Wizard Service tool Still shows it CID locked

Hi,

After I ran the hard_SPL-G4 successfully (i.e. it shows spl as 2.21.olip at start), Wizard Service Tool still shows it CID locked.

I was initiating installation of this WM 6.5 to my wizard:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3489121&postcount=6

(which warned me that phone should be CID unlocked)

Can I install roms even if the Wizard Service Tool still shows it CID locked.

Thanks,

Ozgur
[G4] RoryB:
Welcome to the world of G4. I think I remember the same thing when I used HadSPL.

Your phone is still CID locked, but with the HardSPL it is tricked into allowing you to flash a ROM.

Think of HardSPL as a long term SoftSPL.

The advantage of HardSPL is you do not have to wait through the time it takes to trick the phone into letting you flash

Be sure the ROM does not have IPL or SPL in it, which most all of them on this website do not.

Urgent help needed

Hello

I have followed these instructions, I got an update error while the RUU was running and now the phone is stuck in the white screen.

The error states that i should check the usb cable is connected. I closed the RUU because it was the only button available.

Not sure what to do now, its still stuck in white screen.

I have already bricked one of these phones i dont want to brick another.

Please let me know asap. (scared)
[G4] Joe2k9:
nevermind, I got fed up of waiting lol and it rebooted ok, gonna try again now......
[G4] Dukenukemx:
My G4 currently has 2.21.olip, but I see people with 2.28 or newer. Has there been an update to the IPL/SPL? If so, then how do I update it?

Why you need an update if it is working like a charm? ;)

O2 xda Exec. (G4) - UK ROM Update Error

Hello! Guys,

Could you please help me, with this?

I have previously, flashed one of the Tomal's ROM on my O2 xda Exec, without the CID and sSPL. It did work fine, but my friend borrowed my phone and its just died. When I personally checked it out, it was stuck on the bootloader and the USB thing. I try to install ROM, but always get the CE 102 : Checksum Error when loaded by cellphone repair guy, but if it stuck at bootloader, when the phone is started. just terminated the RUU file, unexpectedly.

I simply do not know, wat's wrong can someone please guide me, I have read all wiki on Universal, but my question is yet unansered.

I definately know, I am doing something wrong. cause cellphone repair guy fixed and doesn't tell me, how did he do it, but he just gave me the last O2 shipped ROM, which is too slow and mega crap. Do you think, is my USB port damaged for flashing the ROM, which is creating the hassle? but the activesync & WMDC works fanatastic with the phone.

Could also update me the procedure, how to do it, with this theory, cause I am dead scare to brick it again, cause that has happened three times and was fixed and I simply can't understand, where am I going wrong. I simply appreciate any help. Marybe, i think there could be something to do with the CID OR ROM Update Unlocker.

My problem is, I unable to flash any roms, as the phone simply gives me CE 102 ROM Checksum Error and I cannot even flash back the Shipped O2 official ROM.

Is there anyway, I can flash, cause my phone is just a waste with this ROM.

Please Help! ASAP.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers'

Nish!

An Exec isn't an HTC Wizard!!

The software isn't supposed to work on your device.
[G4] Dukenukemx:
Well it isn't working 100%. Half of the 6.1 roms I've tried tend to randomly lock up the phone, which I can't wake up unless I remove the battery. The other half of the roms I've tried, work just fine. I was thinking that maybe the HARDSPL is not 100% compatible with 6.1? Plus I've heard that G3 owners get a nice speed boost with 3.08, which G4's can't use.

i've got a problem( only one??XD)

I can not perform hard spl on my device qtek9100

upon reaching the white screen on pc (with windows vista) It crashes saying that the application has stopped working and bla bla bla ...

Can i resolve this problem??

work in xp could be the solution?

assistance are welcome!

i must find a version of xp and try whit this o.s

there's a simulator of o.s like in linux( i remeber wine possibly)??

because installing xp only for hard reset ( and instll a rom ) is very miserable( dpressing)
[G4] TTJB:
Thanks equinox for your response on the other thread. It looks like I'm free to upgrade to a different Rom. Quick question. "After upgrading Rom, if I want to upgrade to a different Rom, do I do something else? Or now that my IPL and SPL are hard coded can I just change from Rom to Rom to Rom?" Thanks!
[G4] RoryB:
With HardSPL you can change from one ROM to the next as if you are unlocked. Just be sure you pay attention to the cautions about G3 versus G4, no IPL/SPL, etc. I went to SoftSPL to try different IPL/SPL, but I am thinking about going back to HardSPL.

when i click read cid.........

any idea...........?
[G4] n2rjt:
Yes still CID locked but you can burn roms.

HardSPL isn't an unlocker, it bypasses the lock.

:)
[G4] thekitehunter:
My question follows neatly on from learning that HardSPL isn't an unlocker on my T-Mobile MDA G4. So I've just paid for an unlocking code from IMEI-Check.co.uk. I went through the procedure and now the phone only boots to the bootloader screen showing IPL 2.21.0001 and SPL 2.21. These numbers look like a G4IPL and a G3 SPL. I can't get Active sync or any program to see the phone, even tried disabling the USB as suggested. By the way, I've noticed that 'bootloader' seems to be a big drain on the battery and the phone eventually went dead (this might explain some other people's dead phones) but I have a second battery and I have an original T-Mobile IPL/SPL rom, just can't find a way of uploading it. Any further suggestions.

Is there a message here that HardSPL needs to be uninstalled before unlocking?
[G4] -MyHTC-:
Did you have the hard SPL installed when you ran the unlock program from IMEI-Check?

Unfortunately this is a sure fire way to brick your phone.
[G4] thekitehunter:
ah, yes, pity there wasn't a warning to uninstall HardSPL first... So that's the end then?

Hi, my sister just gave me her cingular 8125

IPL	2.25.0001

SPL	2.25.0001

GSM	02.25.11

OS	2.25.11.1

I am trying to upgrade the OS to WM6.1 or WM6.5

I did all the steps perfectly but after the final step when I reboot the phone, IPL became 2.21.0001, but my SPL remained the same (2.25.0001).

Isn't the SPL supposed to become 2.21.olip?

I don't really know if I did something wrong. I would appreciate any help, advise, clues or hints.

So i'm not gonna go with the RUU...

I actually can hit the pop up on the clock (using Pbar) and work my way out of that black screen with clock...

Now when booting i see olip!

question...

I have used Wizard Love as my fresh start for flashing roms... I'm guessing that I now have to look for a different fresh start that don't flashes the SPL as I'm guessing that Wizard Love rom has SPL... Not sure.

So if i want to flash a new rom now, any suggestions for a fresh rom for cleaning memory and extended rom before new rom, that does not have a SPL IPL on it? or should I disregard this "Downgrade" before "Upgrade" procedure?
[G4] the-equinoxe:

Ok Great work, I want to do this and donate my CID Block but I have some questions. I have TNT 5 installed on my wizard, when I do the Hard Spl will I lose any data etc or is it that the only that is changed is the SPL?
[G4] danielvelez:
Actually I have TNT 5.0 too and i flashed the hard spl only to see it on my boot screen as I'm not upgrading the rom tonight... (probably tomorrow i will fall into temptation and flash the TNT Beta)

You can flash the hard spl and the phone wont even nottice... it will just say 2.21.olip on the SPL line so go ahead and do it. No need to roll back or re-install everything...

Anyway it's always a good Idea to sync on your pc and also make a pimbackup on the MiniSD and off course, remove the MiniSd on the process...
[G4] danielvelez:
Playing with the Hard SPL

Ok.

Now that i have flashed the new Hard SPL for Cid Unlocking my g4 I want to start checking some things that don't require to flash the phone nor reinstall anything... Probably I will flash some os late this week...

So my first test was to run Wizard Service Tool, and probably Mestrini will need to work on a 0.4.2 version as this is what I get on Device Info:

=> Bootloader (SPL):

Version: 2.21.Olip (G3 device)

Built on Aug 26 2007 at 19:41:34

Copyright (c) 2007 Olipro & HTC - Hard-SPL

As Equinoxe stated, this is not a G3 SPL but a G4 SPL so mestrini will need to change the (G3 device) line into (G4 Hard SPL unlocked device) or something that gives credit to the creators... :)

Also if i hit Read rom, Cid Block, i get this>

Reading CID block...

Calculating CID block sum...

CID checksum: E45C67CA

Decrypted stored sum: 4928FEB545DE4F98

Key index : 1 - Block index: 223

CIDkey: MODULESN

CID IMEI: WHO CARES

CID: WIZBST32

Phone is CID LOCKED!

Probably this is right, i'm not a programmer so I dont really understand the workaround of the hard SPL, but as they explained, I would guess that the CID is still locked and that's why if you load any other SPL back, you will get your phone CID locked again...

Probably the real CID unlock would be non dependable of the SPL but that's only a wild guess.

The other test that I did was to start the romupdate115.exe, the utility called MTTY, to try to make a full backup of the rom.

Actually I have the original 512 mb MiniSD card and i'm using a 2gb MiniSD card, so I can play with the 512. This way I made a MiniSD flashing backup to TNT 5.0 with my 2.69 radio and the 2.21.olip SPL !!! That's nice...

The first time I tryed this MTTY card backup I did it using softSLP but then as it was Software unlocking I just was not able to re-flash my phone from the sd... Now I have not go all the way but i went as far as booting up on bootloader with the sd and it asked me if i wanted to flash the phone, so im guessing that it works!.

More tests on other day.

good night.
[G4] the-equinoxe:
Ah yeah, mestrini wrote the WST before he wrote the DOC tester.

He'll add the 2.21.olip in his future release of WST.

So he'll have to add a hard SPL unlocked and G4 for the .olip SPL.

Since the real CID block isn't touched.

Mtty runs nice with hardspl.

Set 32 2 will show you the g_cKeyCardSecurityLevel, wich is FF for an cid-locked device, but with CID unlocked and hardSPL devices is 0 :)

And with the hard SPL you can use the SD image to backup and restore :)

with softspl you need everytime copy the nb file to softspl folder and wait for the "special ruu" to flash the rom.

with hardspl is only direct use RUU to flash the rom

Hello,

I just saw this thread about the new hard spl tool.

Since all comments were positives, I decided to give it a try, until now, I have the original Orange Rom, but my phone was originally Sim-unlocked (I never used Orange sim-card)

The first time, the install failed. But the second time, it went all smoothly with white screen an so on.

But since then, I cannot install anything on my phone. No Radio rom, no ROM, nothing.

The update process start normally, and it get in bootloader mode with tri-color screen. But then, it can go further.

Either it gives me a 264 error saying my phone is not detected, or it give me a 300 error saying my phone is not compatible.

Even the original Orange Rom cannot install...

Can somebody tells me what's going on? Am I going to be stucked with this ROM and Radio? (I never changed them since I bought that phone 1 year ago cause I was afraid to have problem with that tricky G4)

Anyone can tell me what is lacking for the phone to accept the installs?

:confused:

Thanks so much and regard.
[G4] the-equinoxe:
You can not flas ANY* ship rom.

They have to be stripped from IPL/SPL otherwise you might brick your device (in case of an G3-only ROM) or overwrite the Hard SPL, thus removing the CID unlocked status.

Best way to proceed is to flash custom ROMs or strip the ship ROM from IPL/SPL.

BTW Thanks for key 22 :)

- yes when I get into bootloader tri-color screen, I get:

IPL 2.21.0001 / SPL 2.21.0lip

- I tried to flash some French cooked Rom WM6_FR_SG_Touch without IPL/SPL

- even the flashing of radio 2.19 or 2.69 fail.

- I tried to reflash the original Orange Rom, but this failed too.

- I haven't tried WWE cooked ROM yet, because I'm afraid once I do it, I won't be able to go back to French ROM again.

[G4] riri22:
Hello,

First of all, thanks a lot for the RUU, I'll give it a try.

Earlier today, I've done a few more attempts and I'm stuck again, but not in the same place :p

- Since there was no way I could make the flash, I tried something else, which was to use XP x86 instead of XP x64

(when I installed the HardSPl, I had already to use it, because x64 wasn't compatible)

- after few more attempts and failure, I manage to complete the install of the TouchNoEvil ROM.

But there is a problem of screen: the upper side of the ROM is not high enough and doesn't fit my phone screen. There is a gap at the top, behind which I can see some red,yellow,green back-ground... :(

(I did a hard reset and so on, but this gap is still there...)

- I can't try to flash another ROM anymore, because the required activesync5 for wm6 won't install onto my system: a problem of missing dll.

I'm stuck with the TNE ROM now...

- I'll try both:

installing the SP2 of XP to see if this is the reason of the missing dll

try the new RUU you gave me to see if MUN and the radio I still can't upgrade can be installed with it.

In the meantime, any advice would be very much appreciated. Thanks.
