[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] adityakw:
I’m new here.

I was reading some thread and post and have involved there. But I’m still newbie, basically, I don’t know anything, just try and error, I don’t have any theorem about that.

I want to tell about my recently experience to unlock and upgrade the Hermes family. In the last days, I just bought 3 SoftBank X01HT, with 2 different radio versions. Two of them were 1.14.01.10 and the last is 1.46.00.10.

Someday, I have read a thread that feels difficulty about to unlock the SoftBank X01HT in general. As I remember that the thread-poster not mentioned the radio version or anything about. He just tells that with using pof-tools, Hermes unlocker, he feel unluckier! Hmm, it’s probably known that may be the version of his SoftBank is post-April which cannot be unlocked by pof-tools.

I have tell to you that I have 3 pieces of SoftBank and two of them is post-April 2007. So…?

I start to search any information to unlock the post-April, I have read the pof’s post about unlocking white post-April (black too). In that thread someone have written his comment about NextGenServer. I’m already know about the imei-check unlocker which compatible too to unlock the post-April version, but NextGenServer is new for both my eyes and ears.

Here the link about both of them.

Imei-check Hermes unlocker

THE NEW ALTERNATIVE: NextGenServer Hermes unlocker

I just search any comments and testimonials on the Google about NextGenServer. I don’t want to waste my money with incompatible software which cannot unlock my phone. After very sure that is the best alternative because it’s cheap, cheaper than the best one (Imei-check) and someone in forum have proven it before. So I bought NextGenServer for once.

MY FIRST X01HT TO UNLOCK, AND SUCCESS!

In the first try of unlocking with NextGenServer, it was so easy to me to unlock my first phone. It’s enough by go to the bootloader mode, disable the ActiveSync, and start the software with a ticket given by mail when we order it. Before using the NextGenServer, my first phone was IPL 1.04 and SPL 2.60.Olipro. So successful to unlock, so I try to buy it one more time, to unlock another post-April.

This phone be very normal include the battery life, and now already sold.

SECOND X01HT, UNLOCKED BUT ANOTHER PROBLEM WAITING

Second chance, I bought NextGenServer again. But in this case, I probably failed to unlock this one. My second phone cannot be unlocked by this tool. In the software’s report shows that the IMEI cannot be recognized (detected as unknown or that kind of). I assume that it will be solved when I upgrade my bootloader. The IPL version is 1.01, but now I try to upgrade it with one of powerful tools here (thanks to Olipro!). After that, the IPL version was 1.04 and SSPL was 2.60 Olipro. The problem it solved when I re-run the NextGenServer, now the software can read the IMEI and successfully unlock this second phone. In that day I feel very happy. I conclude that the NextGenServer is very best program, this is the alternative from well-known commercial unlocker like Imei-check. So NextGenServer was successfully unlocked my two phone which both of them are post-April.

Until now, I don’t know what is the significant between IPL and SSPL, may be I must read more wiki.

NextGenServer is the best alternative to unlock the SoftBank X01HT post-April version!

JUST COMPARATION:

Imei-check’s price for GBP 20

NextGenServer’s price for ONLY GBP 17,5

Hey, this program is included HardSPL with SSPL 1.10.Oli…!

But now I see another unlocker (by Pro-Unlocker) in eBay start for only $11!!

The problem of second phone is finished and it can read any SIM.

But a day after that, I have some problem with this second phone. The power is drop. The life of the battery was just 1 day. I replaced to another secondhand battery (which I don’t know how best it is) but it have no change, the life of the phone just 1 day too may be less. Now I replaced with another secondhand battery, but probably it will be like that before.

If the problem of the battery we can ignored, I want to share the critical problem of this second phone. Sometimes this phone is being hung in the Windows. The screen is not locked, but I cannot touch my screen with using stylus, neither with pressing ‘power’ button to make it wake up from the sleep. This problem is often occurs. If I am not using this phone for a few minutes so the display of the Windows appear hung and have no response anything, usually I must press the reset to make it ‘done’. I have so many try to replace the ROM, from Pays, back to Schaps (usually I use Schaps), and last is “HTC_HERMES_S64_WM_6.1_TouchFlo2D_UC_V3_WWE_02.10.2008.rar” but the problem is still occur until now. I have to downgrade and upgrade the SSPL too, but the problem still no change. Can somebody help me about this serious problem?

When hung, the display still showing like a normal display but with the outdated information (like frozen screen), any function doesn't functioning exclude RESET BUTTON!

THIRD X01HT, 100% SOLVED, thanks to tonidekohlanta for the advice!

My third X01HT with 1.46.00.10 radio version (IPL 1.04), have a unique problem. It likes to ask to insert the right SIM, but actually I’m already inserted the Vodafone card. I don’t know if this is post-April or not, but I feel not, may be someone know? I can’t unlock it with pof-tools. May be you can see the picture below that I’m success to unlock with a “fast click on a screen” trick, but after restart, it appears the same, it cannot reads the SIM even Vodafone SIM it self! I try to downgrade or upgrade SPL, after that I do the fast trick to click&run unlocker before the message annoyance appears, but nothing change. It still locked, even for the Vodafone SIM. Someone please help me… I choose to not to try the NextGenServer because I’m afraid it will be worthless if that can’t fix this.

But now (18 October 2008) was solved by using Imei-check tool, by tonidekohlanta advice based on his experience. Yes, now this phone working 100% and normal.

SO CURRENTLY, PHONE WHICH HAVE A PROBLEM STILL SECOND PHONE. THIS PHONE STILL UNSTABLE AND PERIODICALLY HUNG ON THE WINDOWS. THE SCREEN IS FROZEN, ANY INPUT COMMAND ARE IGNORED EXCLUDE THE RESET BUTTON!

I’m not yet to try to flash with the JTAG pin (because it so strange to me, although I have tried flashing many Atmel’s microcontroller in my university before).

Sorry about poor in English. I can explain to you with the better language if you don’t understand my statement, and I can fix this post.

Thanks. And sorry about long post.

I'm Indonesian (@Surabaya), may be anyone in this forum can help me in offline world?

(I’m still trying until this day including reading the wiki, although with minimum knowledge in this case)

The image of USIM's problem, but the unlocking still running in the bacground 'till success! But it can't change anything, it still locked after restart.

(Before this experience, so many days before, I have successfully unlocked X01HT by using pof-tools (v3a), but in that time, I don't know anything about IPL, SPL, Radio version, etc. Anyway, thanks pof!!) --> NOW SOLVED BY USING IMEI-CHECK TOOL!
