Weird problem, i recently bought the Vario (NL Tmobile) and updated it with the latest version from their website. Then i discovered from a collegue of mine, that you can unlock these things and change it with Roms/software from i.e. Qtek.
He was working on it for over an hour, but Lokiwiz doesn't unlock it.
the error message i received was 'an internal error has occured'
The Rom version from the website is 2.21
Is there a problem with these newer units? Not really a problem, but did they put a better lock on it or something?

Hi,
Does anyone know what works for getting rid of my SIMLOCK......its sooo bugging...I searched the whole place(whatever I could) there isn't anything for the Compact II
Here's the details:
Model noM200
ROM version: 1.12.2.23 WWE
PLZ help........PLZY PLZZZZZZ...
It is also known as HTC Charmer.
Anyway, I unlocked mine with lokiwiz (do a search on this forum)
And, if you want, you can flash (I flashed mine) with aWizard
but I guess you can unlock with aWizard as well.
A while ago Dopod published a new ROM for HTC Excalibur:
CID: DOPOD001
version: 1.15.707.2
language: USA
Download: RUU_Excalibur_DOPODASIA_WWE_1.15.707.2_4.1.13.28_02.63.90_Ship.exe
Enjoy!
does this also work for the Dash or is it a s620 ROM only
I am wondering if this works on the dash or do I need to unlock it? Also, I am hoping this will work with BB Connect since it was released by Dopod just a week ago...
OK.
I am doing it now and I am flashing my DASH with the Dopod ROM. I was holding off on flashing with the test rom before and I didn't do the SPL bootloader upgrade. I'll confirm if it works with BBConnect.
EDIT: Looks like it doesn't work with TMobile DASH...It returned invalid model ID error. I am going to try and upgrade the bootloader first and see.
It didn't work for me. It looks like my dash needs to be cid unlocked first. I tried to do the bootloader upgrade and it didn't work for me. My unit just sim unlocked. How do I go about unlocking the cid as well?
Thanks
if you figure out how to CID unlock yours let me know..
if only spv developers would consider updating there spv services so that it cid unlocks the dash would be nice,?
MAN you are awesome bro!

BUT just one question how come you have not been able to get your hands on the tmobile dash rom just asking do not take it the wrong way please?????
does this rom only supports USA or also other languages?
what's new in that ROM guys?
IMEI-CHECK will CID unlock it for $38 until someone writes a free app to do it.
38 bucks its too much money ! rather dante to spv developers and have them update the spv services to be capable to cid unlock the dash!
is there a change log for this ROM??
Hmmm.. I get an error [294] invalid Vendor Error. Weird Cuz i can Flash the HTC Excalibur test roms with no problem..
Here's the explanation of the error from the rom Readme file:
ERROR [242] : INVALID LANGUAGE
ERROR [244] : INVALID MODEL ID
ERROR [294] : INVALID VENDER ID
ERROR [296] : UPGRADE ONLY
One of these error messages will appear when you use the wrong RUU to do the upgrade. RUU will check if the Model ID and Language ID are compatible with the device. Make sure you use the appropriate RUU tool to upgrade.
So whats the difference in this rom and the test rom? How is it running any bugs? and the improvement

Does anyone know who wrote the program for the old XDAs and the Wizard? Perhaps they can update it relatively easily to work on the Excalibur. Is there any other way to fool the program into thinking this is the right device and force the upgrade????

I have an HTC Excalibur and i still can't flash this rom. I think the ROM is CID locked thats why..
I have an unocked DASH and was able to load up the dopod rom. first you have to load up the boot loader rom thats and the ftp here, then loadup the dopod rom. I've had my dash unlock since day one from imei-check.
it loaded up just fine. the big difference i've noticed is that now when I hold down a key the alternate keys charater appears like in the tmobile rom. The font is a little bit bigger, which don't mind at all. I'm using the dash on cungular currently. i've noticed my call clarity is a bit better and the recption is better.

Hi everyone,
I bought trinity a couple of days ago and I found out that it was SIM locked.
Can somebody here help me to tackle this issue if there is any tool for unlocking SIM?
I did see on the forum that there were such threads for other HTC model but I could not discover anything regarding Trinity's SIM unlock.
Many thanks to all who help me.
SPV-M700 from provider "Orange" (The Netherlands)
Hi everyone,
I also face the same problem as Bobbb only with the exception that my trinity already was flashed to WM6 when I bought it. Today I tried to unlock the provider's "Orange" simlock without success. According to the company which tried to unlock the simlock I should undo the flash (WM6) and restore the original "Orange" (WM5?) configuration.
I wonder whether all of this is necessary and if there is a tool or software which can unlock the simlock even after the phone has been flashed to WM6.
Hopefully someone can help me (us) solving this problem?
Just like Bobbb said: Many thanks to all who help me (us).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293957
Since I installed WM6 I can´t recieve incoming calls. The phone lights up but nothing more, and when I click on the reception or phone symbol when it lights up it says "no service" (translated from Swedish).
It was also some problems with Active Sync 4.5 since I upgraded, but those problems might just be because I needed to reinstall it.
Does anybody please know how to fix this, otherwise tomorrow it will go to the repair-shop and I will lose 12 days and the order in my life. : (
The sim-card works on another phone and it worked with WM5, and I have tried hard reset and a reinstall of WM6, but the problem persists.

Hi,
Did you try to install an offoicial version of WM6 or one of the cooked ones of this board? If the latter did you take all the necessary precautions first eg installing an upgraded bootloader, etc?
If you have not you may have bricked your phone.
Give us a bit more detail so we can see how we can help.
Cheers

hello
I had the same problem when I upgrade to official WM6 HTC rom, the phone don't ring and I loose the network.
I solve the problem with flashing the radio rom with older version.
I put wm6 on my phone the first day I got it. so I don't really know if this was a problem b4 with wm5.
mine only seems to ring my end after about 8 rings from the dialer so I have to get it within 2 rings b4 voice mail kicks in. Ypu think the if I update the radio as well will that help me?
ps. sorry for hi-jacking your topic seemed along the same line.
the same problem with Bouygues telecom!
Hi guys,

Hi everybody,

I installed the official version from HTC Europe and it it only the incoming calls that doesn´t work, I can call other people.
THE SOLUTIONS
Two solutions seems to have been offered (below) but I (as Curious Jack) are new to this so could you please elaborate of give a link where I can read more?
Vinzcoyote "I solve the problem with flashing the radio rom with older version"
CrunchyGremlin: cnguar provisioning cab
Thanks so far.

Hi there
I had the same problem with mine after flashing to wm6 (but on a trinity)
Apparently there are 2 fixes:
1. Get a NEW sim , or
2. Flash radio rom back to an earlier version that was used with wm5.
Hope this helps

Two concrete solutions.
One last question: I use a Swedish OS - do the radio roms that is under: "Extracted Radio ROMs for your Hermes" work for me? Or only Anglosaxian PDA:s?
/Dan
similar problem discussed here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1442269#post1442269
in fact Palm Treo 750 (HTC Cheetah) and Hermes are based on the same radio module.
latest Palm Treo WM6 Radio version: 1.47 (Qualcom)
What that Palm utility does is simply downgrading radio to earlier version. This might work for Hermes in bootloader mode as well.
My point is: no need to install hard sspl if one can downgrade to earlier version of radio with _official_ radio downgrade tool.
I will try later and report back.
update: Palm Radio downgrade tool picked up that device is incompatible. no luck so far.
Seems problem is with Bouygues Telecom
Hi Guys,
Got the exact same problem with Bouygues Telecom. I put a Orange Sim card and it is working so I assume the issue comes from Bouygues Telecom.
So that to check, are the french guys all on Bouygues Telecom or are you using other Telco operators?
Frederic
SOLVED : WM6 & HTC Tytn & Bouygues Telecom now working
Guys,
to make it work, you need to flash ROM Radio 1.38 on top of Windows Mobile 6.
ROM Radio 1.38 can be finded at http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms
what version did you use? There are few of them listed on that page:
1.38.00.01
1.38.00.10
1.38.30.10
Hi I downloaded the Vario unlocking tool back in 2005-6 when me and my wife both got T-Mobile Varios on contract. I wanted to sell mine to buy a Ipaq 6365. so unlocked it giving you a wonderful contribution to your cause!
It worked perfectly and my mobile was sold and got myself a Ipaq and GPS and everything for the money.
We have both just upgraded to MDA compact 3 mobiles with Co-Shilet 6, and Now My wife wants to put the O2 sim into the Old Vario, I have sync'ed and disabled the Anti Virus software, I have not got the Windows Firewall installed and am using the Latest Version of the Lokiwiz 0.2
