I was also getting the black screen after installing the patched radio.

My solution: After having installed hard spl i updated both radio and rom to wm6.1. Next i scrapped this installer altogether and tried this one (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=375583

)....made my life a lot easier!!!!!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] doitbest:
Yep, flashed a 6.1 ROM and then it worked, the only thing is now is that the only way for me to hear anything is with the speakerphone on.... The regular phone speaker doesn't work... Reinstalled factory ROM and radio and it still doesn't work.

I am assuming that it is just a defective phone?

Please let me know if you have any ideas.. Thanks
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] webedc:
This is also where I was 'stuck'.

Apparently even though the device was booted to a black screen, I could tell the device was actually functioning. So finally I decided to proceed with "Step 2":

Viola! I got the unlock code "12345678" as illustrated in the first post of this thread. I was very skeptical at first about the "12345678" code thinking that it was screwed up. But I took a deep breath and moved on. After following "Step 3" but re-installing the "original" radio, and after the device was booted up, the "Simlock" window came up and I entered the code. And it's all well!!!

Yes, it's scary to see the black/blank screen. This is a great example of doing things in the dark! (Ha ha ha!) Apparently the screen going blank was because the 'patched radio' that we installed in Step 1 was not 'fully compatible' (I also noted that there was no sound when the device was booting up with the 'patched radio').

So I believe it would be extremely great if the 'patched radio' is modified somehow so that other people will not be scared off because of the blank screen.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] osmvasq:
No sound usually means radio problem!

Are you sure you replaced the radio? some roms dont come coupled with the radio.Some roms and radios just dont work properly . just grab one of duttys rom and radio combos and flash that it should work. Also do hard reboot and turn the phone on and off before using the phone like it said in the instructions.

pm me if you have any other questions.

Thanks, great utility

- AT&T Tilt, stock (latest) 6.0 Radio/Rom/SPL, contract not yet 91 days old, so AT&T won't give me unlock code :p

Followed directions, got unlock code, ran \windows\simlock, entered code, says I'm unlocked, re-flashed radio, re-flashed SPL, done. Total time, about 30 minutes, no issues at all.

I'll toss a non-at&t sim in tomorrow to verify, but it looks like it worked to me, and it's all back as it was now.

Hi, thanks for your brilliant efforts.

I'm trying to unlock an MDA Vario III locked to T-mobile (UK) using Windows xp on the pc and wm 6.0 on the kaiser.

I'm also having problems getting an unlock code to come up in the space provided. I've tried again several times without any luck.

Hardspl and new radio successfully installed.

Also, at stage 7 I don't get the simlock window and textbox as described - just the normal home screen.

Any ideas? Thanks.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] mopar44o:
a little worried at this point

I'm having a problem with the unlock process and am a bit worried I may of messed up my new phone.

I followed the steps and get stuck at the same spot. I installed Hardspl followed step 1 and saw "SPL-1.0 OliPof" in the top left corner

Made a note of the radio version installed which was 1.27.14.09

I synced it with my computer ran KaiserCustomRUU.exe followed all the steps. I powered off my phone inserted my sim card and booted it up.

This is where it goes down hill. It never showed the "sim lock" window. All I saw was the at&t screen the 3g screen and then nothing. It sat for a solid 5 mins with nothing happening. I did the camera button reset with the stylus and it went to the tri colour screen.

disabled the allow usb connections. I got an unlock code and the phone rebooted. But wouldnt go into windows mobile again. If I push the power button I get a pixilated screen with different colour pixles. Nothing else happens. If I reboot it I get the at&t screen and 3g and thats it.

I can hard reset it. When I do that It goes into windows mobile lets me do my inital setup installs some stuff like on the first time start up but then when it reboots it goes as far as before.

Whats wrong here?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] mopar44o:
got it

So after reading up to page 33 I saw alanto had the same problem.

Flashed an older rom 1.57 on and did it and it worked.

Question now is I guess I cant install the radio I had before cause its not for rom 1.57 unless I flash to the newer rom right?

Is there any benifit to the newer rom or should I just put the newest radio for 1.57 on and call it a day?

Thanks

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] NY_HAMMER:
If you got an unlock code, all you have to do is reinstall original rom from ATT including Windows Mobile and put in the other provder card and input this unlock code, You will have the latest system with the latest ROM and radio unlocked.

The reinstall file could be found here

Good luck

Problem upgrading rom

I got to step 5 with no problem but after the phone reboots the screen is blank or just snow. Looks like the phone is working as it will sync with the computer etc.

I have tried removing the batteries and hard rebooting ... still same results. The radio rom was downgraded (from R 1.27.14.09 to R 1.27.12.11)

Anyone seen this issue? Any suggestions?

Good morning. Is SIMLock.zip file necessary to unlocking procedure because i tried to download the file and i keep getting 'not a valid Win32 application' with both XP and Vista.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] DaveShaw:
Try reading the instructions a little closer. Running SimLock.exe isnt always required. The circumstances when to run it are mentioned.

And it also says to run the app on your device, not your PC.

Similiar problem...

Running Vista ultimate

get to step 2 and dos window is closing right away...

using CMD I get this message

1093 [main] ? (5936) C:\Users\Charles\Desktop\kaiser-simunlocker\kaiser-simun

locker\step2\kaiser-simunlocker.exe: *** fatal error - system shared memory vers

ion mismatch detected - 0x75BE009C/0x2D1E009C.

This problem is probably due to using incompatible versions of the cygwin DLL.

Search for cygwin1.dll using the Windows Start->Find/Search facility

and delete all but the most recent version. The most recent version *should*

reside in x:\cygwin\bin, where 'x' is the drive on which you have

installed the cygwin distribution. Rebooting is also suggested if you

are unable to find another cygwin DLL.

Only I've done those things and no joy.

Any ideas?

used a pc running XP sp2 - needed a few attempts; had to be administrator etc. but success! no longer sim locked to orange

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] ipoh:
perfect, got my MDA Vario 3 unlocked ;) tested with vodafone sim ;)

Just to let those beginners like me know, the HardSPL and Simunlocker will not wipe off any Data. The only changes for HardSPL is the TriColor screen version and for the Simunlocker changes is only the radio version which then you should have the original version re-flash at step 9.

one more thing for information, while flashing it may looks like stop half way BUT it's actually still flashing, so, just wait until 100% for every flash ;) Good luck

and thanks again to Jocky ;)

Anyways, after installing custom rom from the step 1 folder, my device boots to a blank screen and then turns to a white snowy screen with small colors when disconnected from usb cable. After installing back my original radio it all comes back to normal.
