ok just got my wizard back from HTC who repaired the screen for 180 dollars.

Instead of a "repair" they sent me a whole new cingular 8125. Now my rom says 2.25.11.1

Is this g3 or g4.. and which rom should I downgrade to before cid unlock
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] gdribot:
Congrats, you have a new baby ?? wizard?

Looks like a G4 What is the IPL/SPL when you boot?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
hmmm

its 2.25. I think the rom they put on there is just a new rom from htc maybe. Instead of a repair of a broken screen they sent a whole new 8125 so it must be a g3 huh?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
If the IPL/SPL is only 2.25 then it is a G3. If it was IPL/SPL 2.25.0001 then it would be a G4
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
ok i have another question you might be able to help me with. I am trying to cid unlock, downloaded the button rom but the spl is stuck at 2.25 and i have flashed about 10 times now, it wont go down, is there any other rom which i could use to downgrade then cid unlock
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Try this rom to downgrade your SPL Xda_MiniS_LaunchROM_v154102

It should work and then you can continue with the CID unlock.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
yea thanks thats acutally what i am doing right now I hope it works on 1st time and i dont have to do it 9 times
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
ok I have a question about this rom. do i put the RUU and ENTERBOOTLOADER onto the phone. how about the nbf file.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
no you want to extract the zip/rar file to its own folder and then just run the RUU.exe file. It will do everything else for you.

Once you flash it, update me with your results.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
wow ok this is really weird. i run the update utility which looks just like the button rom, and it has the same spl and everything! I have no clue what to do I cant get the spl from 2.25
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Hmm... Give this a try.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=265928

Its the newest version of lokiwiz that should work on a 2.xx SPL and you shouldn't have to downgrade.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Once you run lokiwiz, then use Wizard Service tools to read the CID and make sure it is unlocked.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
first im gonna try to dload that rom you just gave me again,. but do u think the loiki will work with ipl-1.05 and spl 2.25
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
WAIT! Your IPL was changed to 1.05? If it is, your ready to use lokiwiz. The SPL does not change with that rom because the rom isn't CID unlocked yet. LOL.

Go ahead and run lokiwiz and then use the wizard service tool from my last post to read the CID and make sure it is CID unlocked.

Update me with your results and I will help you with the whole process. I've been through it before so I know what needs to be done.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
ipl-1.05

spl-2.25

i dont get why both those roms are 1.05

are you sure the spl is not supposed to be changed because ive had the WST and it tells me to downgrade SPL to CID unlock.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
lokiwiz 0.3 a says WITHOUT cid unlock
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
Well what I am trying to do is upgrade to a WM6 Rom and you have to have a spl of 1.x to do this am I correct? and also it needs to be CID unlocked, which lokiwiz 0.3a does not do... am i stuck or what
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Ok I see that you are confused.(No big deal TRUST ME...) I previously had a G4 and always used shelltools to flash roms and had no Idea what I was doing when I dove into this CID unlocking thing but here is step by step what you need to do.

1. Download button rom and flash to device and you will see IPL 1.05 and SPL of 2.25

2. Connect to device but do not sync. Just cancel when connecting and connect as guest.

3. Run Lokiwiz and first press U. This will SIM unlock your device and your device will soft-reset itself.

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 only now press C instead of U. Lokiwiz will now CID unlock your device and it will soft-reset itself.

5. This time when activesync tries to connect to your device, syncronize it with your PC.

6. Install and run WST and and under CID options, click read CID. It will tell you in plain english if your device is still locked or CID unlocked.

7. If it tells you your device is CID unlocked, proceed to step 8, if not repeat steps 1-6.

8. If your device was successfully CID unlocked, download T-Mobile Official WM5 rom and flash it to your device. You will now have a strong 2.26 IPL/SPL.

9. Allow customization to finish and then the device will soft-reset itself.

10. Now flash the 3.08 IPL/SPL to your device for faster boot time.

Now your finished. Your device is now CID unlocked and has a strong IPL/SPL as a base to flash any WM6 rom you please.

Once you have done this, post results here so if it did not work, I can try to help you figure out what went wrong.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Try using this version of lokiwiz instead. lokiwiz - HTC Wizard Unlocker UPDATE Version 0.2b
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
ok i get every single step on here except..

version 0.3a does not give me any unlock options in the DOS... i am going to try 0.2b right now
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
0.2b should work, its the version I used. I just saw a newer version and gave you the link thinking it would work. I will let the author know it does not work.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
YAAY it says CID unlocked so it must be! but its still sim locked
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
nvm! now i got it sim unlocked but one thing. I dont have another sim card butt if i put one in there where can i get the code that i need
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
ahh im so happy thank you so much it works! buttttt

1.i changed my current ROM

s page pool to 8mb or whatever it is. What is pagepool?

2.How do I get the code if I ever want to use another sim chip into my phone

3. What is the BEST rom and i Should upgrade to that tmo 2.25 ipl/spl before flashing to a wm6 rom?? and then would it be best to go to xda v3?

thanks for all your help i reaaaly appreciatie it
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Well if you are using lokiwiz 0.2b then using the sim unlock feature doesn't require entering a code because it reprograms the phone itself.

Since it is CID unlocked, go ahead and flash that T-Mobile Official Rom I posted above and then flash the 3.08 IPL/SPL and once it's done, I have a nice little gift for you. :cool:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
ok great. So i go to tmo then the rom then a wm6

yesss. just have to wait 10 minutes for that stupid rapidshare then I can start the tmo. thanks SOO much
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Yep once you flash the T-Mobile rom, flash the 3.08 IPL/SPL for a very fast and stable boot sequence.

Once all of this is done, you will have the official T-Mobile WM5 rom with the 3.08 IPL/SPL.

Once you have this, let me know and I have a nice gift for you.(can you say 100% stable WM6?)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
are you serious! awesome!

well I am just about to start the tmobile one. Then i bet I will have to wait the dreaded timer for the next ROM then I will tell you when everythings a go

I cant thank you enough
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
ok tmobile is on right now. I am using XP to flash and my laptop with vista to read. Just so I know, what should the SPL and ISL say on both the roms so I can just check
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Once the T-Mobile rom is flashed, your IPL/SPL will display 2.26.

Once you flash the 3.08 IPL/SPL to the device, it will display a 3.08 IPL/SPL.

Once you have the 3.08 IPL/SPL then I will post a link to my gift. Oh and I forgot to tell you, there are no annoying wait times for my gift. You just click download, and download it right then and there.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
it sounds like christmas
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
You're going to like it too. It is my personally modified version of a rom released a few weeks ago with higher performance and reliability plus a few bugs have been fixed.

The best part is, it doesn't even matter what wireless service carrier you have, this rom will automatically configure your network settings to your carrier settings with just a few clicks so you won't lose your GPRS either...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Toodeep:
SOunds like a nice guy. Good help. I would have almost gave up.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
thats awesome, because i just noticed when i started up the tmo rom i couldnt use GPRS, in yours its all automatically set so i can use my internet, wifi, gprs, and voice calls???
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Thanks. I try to be helpful as much as I can to repay the community for all the help I received when I was getting started.

Yes once you install my custom rom, everything will work again after only a few clicks.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
ok 30 mins until i can install the second rom

ahh screw it im just gonna burn it onto a cd now thru my laptop it will be faster

edit: nvm guess im not cuz im using a router and its the same IP

you dont happen to have a premium account do you :p
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Not quite sure what you mean by that... lol.

EDIT:: I see... You were going to download it on another computer, burn it and move it... Good idea, except for the IP address problem. lol

Are you talking about the 3.08 IPL/SPL? I actually have this on my computer and can email it to you if you like. It'll be faster than waiting for it to download...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
yea I meant a premium rapidshare account to bypass the waiting time and yes i Do mean this ROM my email is ctheodores@myeweb.com

if you could send it that would be great
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Check your e-mail. :)

EDIT:: Once you flash IPL/SPL 3.08, your phone will reboot itself. On that first boot screen where it displays IPL, SPL, GSM, and OS, post everything it says on that screen.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
ipl-3.08

spl-3.08

GSM:02.25.11

OS:2.26.10.2

that went alot faster then the other ROM's

something weird happened to my computer.. it blue screened and then rebooted and now im back.. with these settings ^ and I logged into partnership for activesync so if i need to be a guest tell me before i upload your rom.

am i ready?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Yes you are ready. You do not need to be a guest for this, just connect and syncronize.

Here's my gift.

http://www.filefactory.com/file/ee7e74 This is just the nk.nbf file.

http://www.filefactory.com/file/b1f740 This is the RUU that you need to flash the file.

Just download the files, create a new folder and then extract both zips to the new folder you just created. Run the RUU and you will notice your first boot screen and the numbers on that screen will look considerably different.

The download includes:

Modified TNT5.0 TouchFlo Edition Rom

GSM Radio 2.19.11(the most stable)

OS 6.0.0.0

Go ahead and flash that and then let me know what you think. ;)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
for the Faria RUU file do you want me to copy all the files to another folder and put the TNT 5.0 files in the same folder then run the rom update tool in the faria folder i downloaded?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
i just finished flashing.. about to check it out
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Let me know how you like it.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
omgg this is soo amazing lol

can i go on youtube and watch video with it. and is everything setup what do i need to know about the programs or anything else
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
oh and another thing. Im using cingular and trying to get the GPRS on.. what do i use for access point name

user name

pw

and domain
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Ok we have to configure your network settings.

Start/Settings/System(or connections)/Network Wizard and follow the self explanitory steps to set up your network connections.

The apps are very well organized in several folders, pretty self explanitory really... I would just reccomend playing around with the settings untill you have it the way you like it and play around with the programs just to get used to the new stuff in this rom.

To get youtube working on your Wizard, follow this thread:

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
ok cool is this using omap clock
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
It uses Omap Clock yes. I personally do not use that but prefer BatteryStatus(attached below).

Check it out.

Oh and I'm not sure if you checked out the dialer or the comm manager yet but It is totally different from the one you used to have. The comm manager now has 10 buttons and the dialer and comm manager are now styled like the HTC Touch.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
yeah i like battery status, should i get rid of omap clock when installing batt status. and how to i delete other programs if i dont want them like screen capture
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Unfortunatly programs like screen capture are built in ROM(read only memory - cannot be deleted)

To turn off Omap Clock, Just open file explorer and go to Windows/Startup and delete Omap Clock.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
ohh ok so anything in file explorer i can delete.. this is amazing thank you so much. how do i use alt tab tho
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
You can delete anything you can see with file explorer, but I highly reccomend deleting something if you don't know what it is and it will not delete applications. Deleting something you don't know what it is could result in total system failure so be very careful with that...

For alt tab, Go to start/settings/personal/buttons and map it to a hardware button. What it does, is switched between active windows. For example, if you had file explorer and calculator open and you pressed the alt tab hardware button, it would switch back and forth between the 2 of them. This is the same for all programs.

Also, not sure if you noticed, but you are using a different GSM radio now. The one installed on your device now is the T-Mobile 2.19.11 UK radio. It will increase your signal reception and don't worry, you won't be charged roaming for using a T-Mobile Radio.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
this is really awesome. another thing. i was messing around and saw i was connected to media net. i changed it to GPRS but it went back. i forgot where this was. do you know
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
I think you are talking about the network wizard?

Start/settings/system or connections(not sure which one)/network wizard.

Just follow the self-explanitory steps or click menu and click auto-detect
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
it automatically connects me to medianet. i somehow got to GPRS. im not sure what i did but ill figure it out. but what is touchflo and how does it work
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Oops, I forgot one thing.

Attached below is the XDA Cingular Radio Fix

It is a cab file so you just connect to activesync and copy the file to your device and open the cab with file explorer and install the cab. Once it is installed, soft-reset and that should be fixed.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
oh ok whats it for
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Touch flo is neat. It is the cube from the HTC Touch and also finger-touch scrolling

In order to activate the cube, go to start/programs/touch/tfsettings and set the mode of activation you prefer. I prefer top of the screen to the bottom of the screen.

For finger scrolling, just press on the screen with your finger and drag it up or down.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
It will fix the connection to the Cingular towers since you are now using a T-Mobile radio. You should notice a nice increase in signal reception.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
oh ok you wouldnt happen to know the file for the hacked version with the "sign on" button for aim
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Do you mean the original AIM application that comes on your device? If so I have it and can post it here. I have it because I extracted the extended rom from the official T-Mobile rom.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
well cingular did not come with an original aim version. i just want a fully functional one.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Here you go. Give this one a try.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
awesome. thanks soo much for all this. you made this so simple and i really appreciate it!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
It was my pleasure. I like helping people plus I was bored and this gave me something to do for a few hours. lol.

What you have on your device now, is exactly the same setup I have been using for a while now, except I'm on T-Mobile. I hope you like it.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
its great! 1000000 times better than the original cingular rom

do you get any dropped calls or missed txt's?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
With the 2.19.11 radio, no I have never had one missed call but dropped calls are mainly dependant on where you are at the time and how good your signal is. I personally have a full signal in my basement where I had no signal at all with the original 2.26.11 radio.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
thats good

this is such a great gift now i feel justified for paying htc 180 dollars for a new lcd and touchscreen
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Haha I'm glad I was able to help you justify that. I personally paid alot more than that for my device the first time but my upper slide fell off of the lower slide so T-Mobile replaced mine for free. Thats how I got my hands on a G3. I had a G4...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
ooh i had a g3 both times and i went a year on the ciingular rom now i know what i was missin out on its amazing thanks so much
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Well i was the same way... I used the original T-Mobile rom for over 6 months and was pretty much satisfied with just Wisbar Advance 2 and Wisbar Advance Desktop but then realized that it was a memory hogging program and decided to explore my possibilities.

I have a feeling that in due time, you'll feel like an expert at this stuff too(I'm not an expert by far but I know more than I probably should... lol)

If you ever have anymore questions feel free to drop me a private message. I'm always happy to help.

Enjoy!!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
hey, it says in my device info page that i have no extended rom

is this right
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Yes this is right. Your default extended rom is wiped out. You now have T-Mobile's extended rom but it is locked since you are using the custom rom and it has it's oww extended rom built in to the rom itself and does not need T-Mobile's extended rom.

It's perfectly normal for it to display empty or unused.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
How's that new rom treatin ya? I'm just checking because the rom included a T-Mobile Radio and I know you're using Cingular.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
well i havent gone out of the area yet. but its been great! right when i got it it froze up once or twice but nothing since. i love it
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Oh well I think thats normal... I've been using this rom for a while now and the only problem I've had was the phone locks up from time to time. I think thats with all roms though. To fix it, you just have to soft reset and thats all.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
yeah thats what i did. im still havin trouble with the youtube stuff lol
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
oh and i enabled the cube how do i get it to work
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
The cube is kinda neat. Depending on how you enable it to activate, activate it so you have the full screen cube on the screen and just drag your finger from the left to the right or vice versa and it will spin to the next part of the cube. To get it to close, just drag your finger from the bottom of the screen to the top and it will close.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
i dont really understand. can you give me a step by step on how to set it up right then activate it
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
oh wow i got it haha thats really cool i thought it was just like to scroll through internet explorer
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
the only think is that sometimes the "OK" button or the close button does not work
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Hmm... I haven't had that problem. Have you tried installing another task manager?

I personally use Wisbar Advance 2. It is a fully skinnable program and task manager that actually changes the whole interface. Instead of having to browse the programs and settings, it has all cascading windows and the task manager is great. Also, depending on the skin you choose, it also changes the system sounds.

You can download a trial version here. I personally use the Windows Vista Portable Edition Dark skin created by xcilon and really like it. It makes your device look just like a Windows Mobile version of Vista Ultimate Home Edition.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
yeah i might try that. when touch is open sometimes i can close things but i just use the smartkey feature to do it so its ok
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ctheodores:
hey for some reason my space bar does not work anymore?! idk what happened
