Unlocking 101
Please forgive the newbie question, but could someone explain unlocking to me? I know what SIM unlocking is, but what is CID unlocking and application unlocking??
Thank you!

Even thought this has been covered many times, I will be nice and give you a small run down. Next time just use Google to find you answers
SIM Unlock = Use any carrier's SIM in the device
CID Unlock = Load any carrier ROM on the device.
Application Unlock = Most smart phones only allow you to load applications that have an acceptable digital signature. If you try to edit the registry or load an application it will give you an error. Application Unlocking removes this barrier and allows you to install any application or edit the registry to your liking.

Thank you!

Thank you for clarifying this for me!
Also, so you know, I did do a Google search on this issue. I found thousands of articles that relate to CID Unlocking; however, none of the ones I scanned seemed to explain what it actually meant -- only how to do it or not do it. I'm sure an appropriate article is out there somewhere, but after 10 minutes of searching, I figured questions like these are precisely the reason why support forums such as this one exist. To be honest, there's probably very little information that exists here which hasn't been published *somewhere* already -- if you're willing to search hard enough.
The reason I am mentioning this is that I see many, many posts by the "more experienced" or "more knowledgeable" users criticizing people for posting questions which the more advanced user considers too simple. I feel that's unfortunate as, over the long term, it discourages people from supporting sites such as this one and, in fact, seems contrary to the purpose of this type of forum. Sites such as this one provide an invaluable service, and users such as yourself who take the time to answer questions are an indispensable resource. I would think it would be a good feeling to know that you can offer something that will help someone else!
Thanks again!

Can I have the file that "Application Unlock" the HTC S620 SmartPhone?
Or can anyone tell me how to do this?
Thanks!

This will Unlock your dash
Just connect through activesync and hit unlock, and your done, takes all of 5 seconds...hope this is what you wanted.

yes... ok... but I don't have the .exe file that unlock the smartphone !
To unlock the phone, it's possible modify any registry keys...
Somebody knows how to do?

can I please get the app unlock
[email protected]
Thx

sorry
I thought i attached the file, I uploaded it and a bunch more apps to ftp all for dash, including some real useful ones like MS voice command 1.6 for sp5, and netcf2 update, and then some themes and utilities...hope that helps.
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Excalibur/
Admin edit: File has been removed as it has been reported as a virus.

I also have the aplication unlock but after i have instald the cab file nothing happens and i also can't select anything.

Can you please remove voice command from the ftp site?

Can you explain some of the applications you have uploaded?
For example is the HTCUnlockInstaller.cab an app, sim, or cid unlocker? Does it do the same as the .exe app unlocker?
Thanks!

Did anybody get this to work? I tried it and got the message "SDA Successfully Unlocked" but it still asks for the unlock code when I reboot the phone.
Could someone please help?
Thanks

Does anybody read this board anymore? I've been reading for days trying to unlock the dash but no help so far.
Any help would be appreciated.

What you're trying to do, it seems, is SIM unlock the phone, which the SDA Unlocker won't do. IMEI-Check is the only place to go to right now to SIM unlock, I believe, and they charge $38. That or be a customer with T-Mobile for more than 90 days.

that doesn't even make sense...
why not just post the question "AAAA, AAAAAAA AAA AAAA AA AAA - AAAAA!?!"

It's easy.. Just tie the phone to your front door and, using a sharpie (permanent ink marker), write "UPDATE" on the screen. Leave for a few hours, and see if it's still there. If it is, is was LOCKED for UPDATE.
Hope that helps!

very fanny

i cant update the tytn
i get error that why i need to know if it lock for update

You are not very descriptive and it was hard to understand what your problem is, that (and the fact that your english is not on high level) lead to such a behavior of some senior members here. Please provide more details if you wish to get some help from others. You should at least tell them:
What is the version of bootloader (SPL) you are using,
What OS you use - which version (WM5, WM6), or version number
What Radio you are using,
And what did you try to upgrade and what was the error, when did it happen and so on.
People here have lots of knowledge of Hermes, but they are not mind-readers. Try to be as descriptive as possible and there is high possibility someone will help you. If you are afraid you can not express what is your problem in english ask some of people here that are from your country to translate your questions to english. Good luck!

.) what kind of error exactly?
.) which rom did you use?
.) did you follow all the steps in this guide exactly? http://www.mrvanx.org/hermes_guide/

What is the version of bootloader (SPL) you are using, =
1.08
What OS you use - which version (WM5, WM6), or version number :1.18.255.106
What Radio you are using,
1.03.03.10
And what did you try to upgrade and what was the error, when did it happen and so on.
it not connect with the mobile it frezze the update

First you should upgrade your bootloader according to this guide:
http://www.mrvanx.org/hermes_guide/HardSPL.html
Then you can try to flash either radio or rom or both - have a look at this guides I mentioned before.
But as english is not your mother tongue I guess its better to find somebody here in the Forums who is speaking your language and ask him/her for help.

If you want to eliminate potential communiaction problems and misunderstanding you can edit your signature to provide details about your device. What you are using will be clearly visible so troubleshooting of any potential problems will be easier. Most important info is: device name (TyTn, Trinity...), OS version/name, Radio version and Bootloader (SPL) version. Good luck flashing!

wm6 for tmob vario2 uk... which version should I use and how?

Hi guys, I am a serial lurker here for several years.. and finally decided to upgrade my vario 2 to shiny wm6. I have downloaded black 2.5 and wanted to find out it all works great and how to install....
i haven't made any other changes to my vario 2 so want to get this right first time!

I think you need to lurk (and read) a bit longer, this same question has already been asked today!

lol, I read that which sparked an interest in upgrading...
What I wanted to know was which was the "best version" to install and what was the best procedure to follow for tmob uk.. I have seen plenty that mention the usa networks but no instructions specifically for tmob..
I know that a lot of you guys have already done it, so I just wanted to pull at your experience and get a good safe method!!!

Put on the fire proof suit quickly my friend, I think it will get very hot very shortly.
Check the WIKI, look for custom rom upgrading and follow MrVanx's idiot proof guides.
Black 2.5 has a UK TMob version as well. The thread is fairly obvious.....

great thanks for the advice....
I will look for it.... would be handy to have a direct url for any other tmob users that come across this post...

I used vanx
I used vanx's update method to install the hard spl, and now my phone is stuck on the 4 colours and won't go any further......
Can anyone help?

His guide also has a what to do if things go wrong section IIRC?
Also, read all 74 pages of this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722

phew I was lucky, I only needed to reset as it was stuck in bootloader. however when I try to instal hard spl it gives me a request to run enterbl.exe which when I run it, resets the device immediately into a boot loader screen (the colors) and doens't update the firmware...

Have you got all the necessary .net framework stuff installed?
Presume you are using XP not Vista.

i'm still using black 2 but will be upgrading to black 2.5 over the next few days when i have time. I'm also on t-mobile uk and although i havn't tried either the standard black2.5 or the t-mobile one, it'll be the standard version I install as i'd rather keep my phone clean from any t-mobile stuff. Thats just me though.

.net framework? I have looked all over and can't see any reference to it.. can you clarify??
edit:sorry am runnig latest 2.0 version

You need .net framework 2. If you havent got it, download from microsoft. You should read MrVanx guide

You will need to wait for one of the gurus to look in then I am afraid - I followed the guide and it all worked for me.....

T-Mobile - UK W'n'W
I've bitten the button and upgraded both my rom and radio and so far so good

Check this thread, it helped me when I was stuck on bootloader:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Unbrick

thanks for the message, however I am back in the os... I think it must be some type of software lock.... does t-mob application lock their devices?

Hi, dont know about t-mobile, but I know Orange uk lock their's. However I followed Mr Vanx's excellent guide on the hermes wiki & have flashed a few times with no problems so far. Currently running Black 2.5 (excellent), with no issues.

I use
t-mob and hermes adn black 2.5. Absolutely great.
haven't bothered with the specific t-mobile flavoured rom, but downloaded a cab file which you won't need which oads the settings for mms and other such "treats" like that.
Have used black since 1.0 and think it's great, and continues to get better.

Locks:
-- SIM: USE ANY CARRIER's SIM (if hardware supports the frequencies)
-- SECURITY: INSTALL ANY RADIO ROM (Danger Will Robinson!)
-- APPLICATION: Reg Hack to install any software without complaint
-- SID: Don't do it! Use HARD-SPL! Allows any carrier's rom to be flashed
If you call Tmobile and tell them you are travelling out of country, they will SIM unlock you for the asking. Just tell them you'll be using a pre-paid SIM card from the country you'll "be visiting"
To SID unlock (or it's equivalent) so you can flash any rom you like, search for thread 550131 here at XDA (HARD-SPL)
If TMO won't be polite and unlock you, go to thread 555339 and for a small fee you can get unlocked by XDA's own Olipro/Cmonex team's commercial venture This can Security Unlock you so you can install any radio rom as well.
Hope this helps

Use the search option in the top right of the forum screens and look for "Leo 2.5 ROM"....you'll see there's more than just one, and you need to do some serious reading to decide which might be best for you.

yea your right there are so many. which rom is the best in your opinion for tp2?
it would give me a starting point.
thanks

No clue...I haven't even flashed the new stock 6.5 on mine yet, let alone anything cooked. That will come in good time, right now I'm still having a blast tweaking a stock 6.1 every which way I can (short of getting an aftermarket ROM)
Asking that question in these forums carries with it a fair chance of getting e-tomatoes thrown at you, proceed at your own risk. Perhaps you'll just be politely advised to read up on the pros/cons of each and decide which sounds like it meets your preferences the best. The search you just did to see all those is done via google, so the results are stacked by frequency of visits...i.e. the ones closer to the top are likely in wider use, and are probably the best place to start

unlock HTC Tattoo

Hi - i have a uk vodafone tattoo (no contract) which i would like to unlock, meaning that i can use a sim from a different country - i understand this means overcoming the net/CID lock?! - apologies but i'm very new to this so not sure if i'm using the right terminology but basically i would like to use my tattoo with a different sim from a different country.
vodafone have given me a code based on my imei but it didn't work - i double checked with them but apparently it's the correct code.
so, what i have done then is - i gained root access and flashed the modaco tattoo custom rom.
the vodafone branding is gone but the network is still unlocked.
is there a way to get it unlocked? would i flash a different rom? can anyone help? i don't have much knowledge and i'm quite new to this.
also i did search the forum and didn't get the answer i needed but if there is a post that explains it - please direct me instead.
many thanks for your help!
a

anyone who can help??

I can only advise to GOOGLE it. Not being sarcastic by any means.....just trying to help

believe it or not i did ask google (not trying to be sarcastic either). and as mentioned i already have a code that vodafone provided via htc, which doesn't work, so i posted here as i thought there might be someone in this forum to help.
if there is anyone with helpful advise - it's much appreciated.
cheers,
a

Ok then....have you called Orange to request the right code? have you followed the proper protocols for unlocking that phone?
I think you were given the wrong code by Orange.

hm. it's vodafone (not organge) - and yes i requested the code. and double checked with them - they said it's the right code. although i agree it apparently is not - after flashing it allowed me 3 new attempts and i have now entered it 4 times so clearly it must be incorrect.
the option is to send it to vodafone but given it's now rooted and flashed i'd rather figure out a way myself to remove the CID/Netlock - but looks like there is no straight way forward..

Welcome to forums
I would check on ebay or try contact olipro member to buy an unlock code

Don't get in trouble!
Somtimes it is easier spending 15 Eruros and 30 minutes than trying magic.
Just one advice. The process erase the data, so remember to do a NAND BackUp before.
I did it before changing from Vodafone to Simyo.
Now i have got a free Tattoo and also changed the ROM.

If you need a code for this phone.
Please do pm me.
