Anyone know of a way to debrand the Tmobile Dash to get all of thier splash screens off of it?
Flash with the ROM posted in this thread. There are pluses and minuses to both. I like the S620 ROM myself. The only thing I miss is the ability to hold a key down to get the corosponding symbol. I don't miss the T-mobile garbage
how well does the rom work. is that the only issue is that you cant hold the keys down to get the other characters??
As long as you are WM literate enough to change the mms/gprs settings to work with your provider. Everything works great
are you refering to the post with this rom?
RUU_Excalibur_HTC_WWE_1.11.405.4_4.1.13.28_02.63.9 0_Test.exe
making sure I am on the right track.
i would like to know how to do this also without turning my unlocked cingular dash into a brick.

Just follow the direction to the tea. Other than that there are never any promises. But more people successfully flash their ROM then don't

before i get started, what do i need to change speficially to work it with cingular?
is there a way to revert back if it doesnt go well?
I've done this myself with my Dash as I have changed from T-mobile to Cingular.
Make sure that you are CID unlocked. Do not confuse SIM unlocking with CID unlocking. If you need help determining if you are CID unlocked I've got one question, did you pay to get CID unlocked? If yes then you know what you are doing but if no then you are not CID unlocked and it will not flash. Getting a SIM unlock code from T-mobile allows you to use other carriers but you still cannot flash the phone with just a SIM unlock.
Flashing the phone is simple, plug it in, let active sync run and then double click the Rom file you've downloaded and follow the instructions. In a few minutes your phone will restart and all of the T-mobile stuff is gone and you are off to a fresh start.
As for settings, you will need to change GPRS and MMS settings like others said. The info you need can be obtained from hofo or cingular's website, it's pretty straight forward.

how do i go about CID Unlocking it?
I have an o2 cosmo in german. I know it is unlocked because I can use my cingular sim card. If I try to flash a new ROM without knowing if it is CID unlocked, would it brick my phone? or would it just not let me do it?. I have changed ROM's before on different HTC's phones but it seems like there is not a lot of reseach on the excalibur.
Does anybody know if its possible to unlock HTC Tattoo ?
I have tried unlockingonline, But have not recieved any codes now its 24hrs ago... So i guess i was fooled by them...

It is not a virus.
Kaspersky, sometimes AVG detect it as a trojon or virus because the program is packed to prevent it from being cracked.

Hey could you explain to me how to do this? What it is? ect. i am a bit of a noob. lol
As i had the same issues as the guy above.
orange codes
with orange phones you may have to enter twice.
so once you have entered and it will ask you again .
enter the code again and it will work
Once i enter the code it says "Network Unlock Successful" but when i get to the main screen i have no signal, and if i reboot the phone it asks for the unlock code again, help would be appreciated.

Yeah same here,
Mine is on Orange UK...
Any help would be appreciated.
Hi,
Same here. Tried everything. Rooted it, flashed with custom firmware MoDaCo. Bought code from HTCCode.com (ripoff). And now am waiting for the isim 2008 from DealExtreme ...
Don't be fooled by HTCCode, like I was. They profess to be able to unlock any phone to any operator. They hadn't bargained for the HTC Tattoo on Orange and probably some other flavours.....
My understanding, and feel free to correct if I'm wrong, is that there's a radio ROM that has been tied down by Orange and at last check they haven't been able to flash it (i.e. get rid and replace by a less tied down one). Within that ROM there's a CID check which doesn't want to respond to any code you throw at it.
My advice is pick up a vanilla Tattoo (play.com do them now for £180), or you could try an iSmartSim (it didn't work for me, but there have been reports of some success)

AGREED!
Here is MY experience with HTCCODE (also known as member "ferraripassion"), and his pathetic attempts to unlock an HD2.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=657751
I am amazed the admins allow him to continue to prey on members here!
HTCCODE finally DID come across for me. It took some "work"... He claims he sent the code last night.. not quite the "2 minutes" that were brandished, but I did receive it, nonetheless, So I wasn't "ripped off."
Just setting the record clear (for ANYONE who actually cares).
Hi i'm buy code from htcsimunlock . com and key doesn't work, after 24h they didn't refund money. Anyone who has experience with them?
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.
Just pm me if you need a code

Hi guys,
as much as i am an advancer user when it comes to doing stuff on android devices that with winMo i don't know what to do. I have read twice the reference thread with all the instructions but i am still lost, i don't understand everything. If someone could direct me to a IRC chat where someone could guide me step-by-step or someone is willing to spear some time and stay with me on a GTalk that would be awesome. Either way please direct me to someone, or a place where i could get a live help.
Thank you all in advance.

You haven't even asked a question here.
What are you trying to do?!?
uh Sorry
I am trying for the first time to change my ROM. I could read about HardSPL but in the guide there are something about some tickets from htc and some files from Microsoft website. Should i download it on my PC on my mobile how to flash it what to do with those files and this HTC thing. Generally how to bite these things. Do i have to be plugged in USB or no and so on so on.
I read it twice but i am still confused

HSPL you flash from ActiveSync. So get the phone sync'd, then run the HSPL installer (make sure you get the right one for your device!!)
Then, once you've flashed HSPL you can flash any ROM - either via SD or USB/ActiveSync.
ok that clears things up. Now the HSPL i get from htc website? and on the tutorial here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550540 it says to download a file If you have Vista or Windows 7, update WMDC to v6.1 *HERE* first do i download this to my phone or pc and flash it with active sync?

yes i got that part now, i guess i must be tired so the information didn't go to my brain as they should.
I got the HSPL now successfully and would like to ask you a question.

Did you unlock the SIM slot?
I know on the RHOD400/500 there's a SIM unlocker tool. I don't know if it applies to other RHOD's or not...
Update:
"Q6. Is there a SIM Unlock tool (or any other kind of paid service / hack) available to make this phone compatible with the US GSM service providers?
A. YES YES YES! Olipro and Cmonex have made this happen for real. Works with all CDMA Rhodiums."
Only applies to the CDMA RHOD's it seems. The GSM-only variants shouldn't need the SIM slot unlocked in any way shape or form.
hi
so does that mean that i will be forever unable to receive and make calls?
I have tried with my o2 UK sim card and funny enough i have a data connection but not signal. I can browse internet and stuff but cannot make any calls. With my 3UK card i have nothing. No data No phone calls. Is there a way to fix it or i basically just **** my phone up by taking simlock off?
I got it on ebay and it was locked to Orange. Before i flashed ROM i put my sim and entered the code to unlock the sim. If that was a mistake is there a fix or patch to help me out?
Please help me.

So this is a GSM-only RHOD? RHOD100 I'd guess?
If so, there's no reason to unlock the SIM slot on the device itself AFAIK. You would only need to unlock the SIM card itself.
I'm by no means an expert here, but based on what I've read the only SIM slot that needs unlocking or is even unlock-able on the RHOD is the CDMA variants (which both have SIM slots for GSM as well).
Sorry, maybe someone with some more knowledge on the GSM variants will respond.
Yes it is RHD100,
Before reading your posts i have already unlocked my sim slot as i was trying to use my 3uk sim in orangeUK handset. Usually in all handsets so far that was the way to use different sims. If what you say is true what are my options now?
To bump up my thread and question
After not much luck trying to fix it i still have a device that have no signal.
I have tried ROMs Radios flashes and all i could think of.
i have checked and the only way for me to use my phone was to unlock it via unlock codes. But since that day i have no signal what so ever.
I am willing to send my phone to some one for repair if you think you have a clue.
If you have any ideas how i can do it on my own please let me know as well as i really would like to use this. I know it is old and stuff but still would be nice.
Anyhow if you need more answers or info of what i have tried and done do not hesitate to contact me or reply here.

You're sure the hardware supports the bands you require for your provider?
Like arrrghhh says if your Rhodium supports the frequency bands for the provider you are trying to use it on then it should work. I suggest you talk with your 3UK tech support and give them the model # and see if you need a specific type of sim card for it to work or any suggestions they might have.
HI,
Thanks for your input. I know that it used to work on Orange UK network before taking sim lock. Usually most of UK devices worked together, especially that 3 UK have a partner agreement to use Orange network if you loose 3 Network. So it should work. I will give them a call and report back.
Kirior
Edit:
So the guy said that because my sim works in other handsets it must be a software/hardware and sim issue. He could not check it more as it was not a 3 handset so they don't bother. They, as a network, used to have a agreement with all the network to roam between each other, so that would mean that freq are same in all UK. I am running out of options. Any one willing to fix/help with it?
Edit 2:
Went to an orange shop on my way to work and tried one of theirs sim card. Handset worked flawlessly. My guess now is something went wrong with unlock maybe, or my sim is really incompatible with handset. Any ideas how to resolve it?
Thx in advance.

May be, but my sim works in all sort of different devices, it is just this one.
I was wandering as well, maybe if i would come back to stock RUU for Orange UK maybe than it would work? But i cannot seem to find it anywhere :/
I was given the unlock code and it still says request to unlock network unsuccessful, it's eligible to be unlocked...
All help would be greatly appreciated.
Should I try flashing over back to this stock rom and then see: http://server10.stockroms.net/download/GalaxyNote2/SGH-I317/I317UCALJ2_I317ATTALJ2_ATT.zip
I hate being stuck in a rut like this, already had my account transfered to a T-Mobile microsim. This is driving me nuts...
The person I bought this phone from said they updated but then when I checked it was still at 4.1.2 and said something about update interrupted...
Or which of these should I use: http://www.scottsroms.com/downloads.php?do=cat&id=71
Flashing a Rom won't unlocknyour phone..... Also what do you mean your still on 4.1.2?? That is the latest Rom for the phone. ... Where are you obtaining your unlock code from? The only time att provides it themselves is over the phone. You sure your not getting the wrong code?

Yes I got the code from AT&T over the phone, called them twice and got the same code 1-800-331-0500 they gave me 41907314... According to this: http://galaxynote2root.com/galaxy-note-2-tutorials/how-to-unlock-sim-for-free-on-gsm-galaxy-note-2/ if ya take the newest update, ya can't sim unlock the phone cause it takes out the “NW Lock NV Data Initiallize” (Step #9) according to YouTube user comments...
THIS IS WHY I'm wondering what Stock firmware I need to downgrade back to in order to get that option again and be able to sim unlock my phone.
So I'm wondering if it's I317UCALJ2 or I317UCALK7 that re-enables that option for me. Right now I'm on I317UCAMA4...

I don't think it'd matter during the Odin flash with a AT&T sim card or T-Mobile one in it, I can't remember if I did it with or without a sim card, but to be on the safe side I'd do it without a T-Mobile sim card in it, just for that first successful boot... Then do the 4.1.1 unlock code method, take the back and battery off then pop in the T-Mobile sim card(Or whatever other non-AT&T carrier sim card) and see if it done it correctly...

I bought an AT&T live demo note 2 that was used in an AT&T store. I used this method from youtube, popped in my niece's T-Mobile microsd and dialed 611. T-Mobile's customer service rang and answered showing it worked. You need 4.1.1 to use this method though. I'm going get me a microsim today since my vibrant doesn't use the micro.

The above is not true - if your phone has upgraded firmware, you will NOT see the item "NW LOCK NV RAM...." in your "NETWORK LOCK" "PHONE CONTROL" menu.
So, the ONLY two solutions are:
1) keep bugging ATT to create a case for you and investigate
2) downgrade to 4.1.1 modem (NEED TO READ/UNDERSTAND HOW TO FLASH etc.)
then apply the Samsung service menu "fix" as shown in the above video...*
*Then, you could upgrade to newer ROM... if you wish....:cyclops:
I have had two companies give me the same unlock code which does not work. Is it a problem with the phone or a problem with the code?
Both say factory reset the phone but this has some issues I think, sometimes I get a red triangle or it reboots very quickly without resetting from the rom.
Phone is sim locked to Three UK (who have stopped fixing the phone directly and HTC won't look at it as its been boot loader unlocked)
Can anyone help with this if so, give full instructions and files needed. Thanks in advance.
P.S. it would be nice if a debranded rom could be installed.

I have had two companies give me the same unlock code which does not work. Is it a problem with the phone or a problem with the code?
Both say factory reset the phone but this has some issues I think, sometimes I get a red triangle or it reboots very quickly without resetting from the rom.
Phone is sim locked to Three UK (who have stopped fixing the phone directly and HTC won't look at it as its been boot loader unlocked)
Can anyone help with this if so, give full instructions and files needed. Thanks in advance.

ARe you on STOCK rom and stock recovery. If no go to full stock
I had the same problem on my One X locked on Orange Romania. It seems some GSM operators change the factory unlock codes. The only way to unlock it would be to have a buddy working at the GSM Operator or wait until the phone gets out of contract. I was unable to unlock mine.
yes I'm on full stock rom.

OK so I have got the code from Three UK and it is the same as the the others and does not work.
Does anyone think it is because the boot loader has been unlocked?
HTC support chat reckon thats the problem

It shouldn't, I believe I had the same problem but I was on AOSP, I had to put a stock ROM on for sure.
It could be worth locking it to see though, it's not the biggest pain in the ass!
If no joy, Im out of ideas... sorry mate!
Good luck

My phone has this stock Rom already on it.. I would have to try putting another stock Rom on it. It it possible to put a standard unbranded stock Rom on it instead of HG3?
As far as I know ofcourse you can
OK I have put another H3G stock rom on and this does not work either.
After looking into this further I have found somewhere that if the phone is a replacement one or something was changed from manufacturer and providers with regards to databases for unlock codes then the one provided may not work.
Well my phone went into the service centre and they fixed it but stated after testing they decided to change the mainboard. I suspect because it was originally a CID 1111111 with S-OFF(unbranded as HTC described it) as it was delivered first day they came out. Rush job to get to market and didn't get branded to H3G_001 and S-ON I suppose.
Anyway I suspect that because the main board has been changed the the unlock code has also changed and not been documented or changed on the database for the codes. So they are providing me with the original code not the new one and the letter for the fix state IMEI code previous and new the same, so they must have just reprogrammed that and forgot about the unlock code.
Is there a way to read these off the phone, NVR or something?
I am with Orange or EE and I have tried to flash a stock rom with stock recovery and relocked bootloader and nothing has worked. I have paid 2 companies for the unlock code which is the same code and nothing works I am so frustrated might have to leave htc. This is ridiculous I am on 3.16.61 and my cid is orang001

I'm going elsewhere on my next phone too. HTC support use the bootloader unlock as a get out of jail free card.

Just to kick this up I've had the exact same problem (this time with t-mobile) 3 companies and EE all with the same code, all refused by the phone.
Heart breaking really.
Is there no hardware method to get the code or an alternative sim unlock out there?
