Error 260 when loading HardSPL onto HTC Tytn ii (locked to Orange Network)

I'm trying to unlock my HTC Tytn II, and have downloaded all the tools. When I try to run the Hard-SPL-V7 from Pof, and click Yes on the phone when asked to run the possible unsafe software, the phone turns off immediately after clicking Yes, then reboots to the normal screen. The software running on the PC hangs for a little while, and finally throws up an error 260 Update Error.

Does anyone know how to get around this - I can't unlock the phone without first installing HardSPL from what I've read. Thanks

Thanks, it work on ATT tilt

Just want to share a how to if you don't have a "strange" sim handy.

Instead of using the strange sim and let the program "simlock" pops up, you can use the explorer to start "simlock.exe" even you are using ATT sim. It works for me.

Well, once unlocked always unlocked. Try another SIM.

If still no luck, try the SuperCID and Security Unlocker, but remember that HardSPL must be installed.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] pneste:
jocky

What should happen when you type in the code? Mine just sits there and does nothing. I have run the other 2 progs and still the same outcome. Will try another SIM. I had managed to lock the sim before running the program will that make a difference? I was flashing to the 1.27.12.32 radio as orange are using that now, but it appears not to work on my phone and hence lockrd the sim.

Thanks for oyur help.

HardSPL and SuperCID HELP!

Hi there.

I'm unlocking a T-Mobile MDA Vario III for a friend of mine and I was wondering if you can help me please?

I just wanted to make sure:

1) Do I flash HardSPL before I even start with this unlocking process?

Is this the correct HardSPL: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=334679 ?

2) Do I need to perform a Kaiser SuperCID and Security Unlocker before I run this unlocker?

If yes is this correct: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=361236

For those that like to try and call AT&T for the unlock.

I called up AT&T and requested for a Subcidy Unlock request. AT&T has a new procedure out there where they open a case# for the unlock process.

You will be asked to fax over the following information.

- Name on the Account

- Account #

- IMEI #

- Billing Address

- Contact Number

- Cell #

- Case #

Now, I was told the case# had 15 days to compelete the process, but once the fax was sent over, 2 hours later I received a SMS with the unlock code and to call a AT&T number for instructions to unlock. But instead, I executed the SIMLock.exe file and entered the code and SIM unlocked my Tilt.

The SIMLock.exe file is located under \Windows folder. You will have to unhide the files in order to see it or do a search.

I know this was off topic from the process in the thread but wanted to provide my feedback.

Please keep in mind I have a Business account and I called during regular business hours.

I have an AT&T Tilt and I followed the steps to unlock it. Everything went fine and the phone is unlocked. When I put a T-Mobile sim card in it tells me there is no sim inserted. I try an O2 sim and it can't connect to any service. I'm wondering if I should use the SuperCID and if I do will that solve my issue. By the way my AT&T sim works on the phone just fine.

Unlocking through T-Mobile

Hi,

It's been so difficult unlocking my Vario III that I decided to contact T-Mobile to do it.

The only requirements were:

* Top-up with at least £15 of call credit.

* Be prepared to wait up to 28 days

* Register with T-Mobile (email, address etc)

* Give them the IMEI of the phone

I gave them the 'I'm going overseas' story. Not sure if this helped or not. The call costs on T-Mobile are about the same as o2. I'm also considering changing my phone number to T-Mobile so I can use this credit, then change it back to o2 afterwards.

I don't have another SIM besides my ATT one for my Tilt. I ran through the steps anyway without changing my SIM and i got an 8 digit code after running kaiser-simunlock. After restarting, I attempted to enter that code in the SIMLock application, but it doesn't do anything. Questions:

is simlock supposed to tell me that the phone is unlocked after entering my code? if so, why isn't it working?

is the 8 digit code my actual unlock code given i used my ATT sim?

if this is a valid code, but I must use a non-ATT sim to unlock the phone, can I use this code in the future with simunlock.exe when I travel using a non-ATT SIM?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] jgdorado:
cruiserman

That code will work anytime on your phone. It never changes. I believe you have already unlocked your phone based on your info. If you entered a wrong code you certainly would have recieved an error.

Next time you see a buddy who is using another service..give their SIM a try.

Can't enter the SIM Unlock in HTC ROM

Hello Everybody,

I have ATT Tilt. Yesterday I did CID Unlock and successfully flashed the HTC ROM:

RUU_Kaiser_HTC_WWE_3.03.405.0_radio_sign_25.70.40.02_1.64.06.04

Today I received SIM unlock code from ATT. When I booted the phone with my old T-Mobile card the gets stuck in a white screen with message:

“Checking SIM lock status, please wait…”

I can’t get over it to enter the SIM unlock code. I hope there is a way around so I do not need to go back to ATT ROM just to SIM unlock the phone.

I remember that few days ago, when I put the T-Mobile SIM card in Tilt and Tilt was still on the ATT ROM it sent me to a screen requesting me to enter the SIM unlock code.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] vb7805:
The code you see on the ATT online account management is NOT the SIM unlock code. You will have to either request ATT to give it to you (as I did) or use the procedure described in post #1.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] daystrom:

I'm running UDk's latest ROM and had the same problem.

100 different ways from yesterday, and couldn't get it to work.

Then, I took the SIMunlock.exe from my other tilt, running the stock ATT ROM, put it on the UDk rom tilt, and ran it.

Using my ATT Sim, I fired the phone up, and using total commander, found the SIMunlock file and ran it. Then, I inputted the unlock code I got from step 8 and hit ok. Then, I was good to go.

I would imagine you can do this with no SIM in the phone too.

Here is the SIMlock that worked for me... dated 1/17/08... the one that didn't work was dated 2/12/08. Just unzip, drop it anywhere on your phone, and run it from your phone. After completing up to step 8 and then failing step 8.

Unlocked my UK Orange TyTN II using this method, never done rom flashing before so was a little anxious, not familiar with PDA's either - the procedure was a little 'hairy' on £££PDA/Phone like this, but it worked fine for me.

If you are contemplating unlocking your TyTN II Orange phone or similar using thisi method then it is IMPORTANT to read and understand the instructions provided BEFORE you start and make sure you have all the files ready to go.

Don't skip anything especially the initial HardSPL installation (the 'hairiest' part?)

The whole thing took about 30 minutes with just a couple of little hiccups plus about 3 days reading and familiarising myself with the instructions and the various procedures.

My Orange TyTN II now on Vodaphone - mainly because I have always used this network.....and now how to get rid of the initial orange splash screen........

Does this process work with UK Orange TYTN II?

Hi,

I've just received my Orange TYTN II (UK) simlocked to Orange this morning. Having read through the entire procedure of performing the unlock, I still have some worries whether the procedure completely "lock" (or worse) my phone? The radio version I have currently on it is: 1.27.14.32 - and the one available for download from here i believe is the 1.27.12.32

I've read other users' experience and from what I have understood is that on the UK ORANGE TYTN II, once the radio version is changed, the phone goes into a full simlock as well as a network lock - and the only remedy from that is going to one of those sites which provide a £20 unlock code ....! I would like to know how far this is true ... and if so, is there a work around this yet?

Appreciate all the help.

--- Additional Info ---

OS: Windows XP SP2

ActiveSync 4.5.0 (build 5096)

When I try to install Hard-SPLv1 - I just get a blank screen for a long time, in which the TYTN II also looses the sync (green) connection with my computer?!

Done! I now have an un-locked ORANGE TYTN II!
