Hi all,
I'm trying to put a new rom on the ATT tilt2 that comes out tomorrow, but whatever I do nothing seems to work. I ran the cab for hardSPL and everytime I try to update the rom the phone disconnects from USB. As soon as I get the status bar upgrade on the rom from hardspl on the phone and PC it freezes. Then it disconnects from WMC and I have to take the battery out. Am I doing something wrong?
Well, if you ran a cab for hardSPL you did something wrong and your phone isn't unlocked.

you can call ATT and get an unlock code then you can HSPL, or you can go here: and buy your unlock code and it will install HSPL at the same time

Exactly, you need to do something other than run a cab.

Alright, so I get the unlock code and run the installer for HSPL after the unlock?
EDIT: I already put the cab on the phone.

Dude, are you not reading? THERE IS NO CAB FOR HARDSPL! It is an application that you run from your PC that replaces your phones bootloader. Go to the thread that alwayslearning posted and buy their program, or go here and use that HSPL.
you do not have to have the phone unlocked to use hardSPL on it.unlocking the phone is only needed if you want to use it with another phone carrier
frustrationnnn...
I understand how you have to install the hard spl on the phone before flashing the rom, but I'm also having trouble installing the hard spl. I am trying to install the rhodium hard spl. it says that I should retry after syncing the device everytime I run the program on automatic flash. (meaning the program does not recognize the device?) but....when I check the windows mobile device center, it says it is connected.... stuck.
And after installing the hard spl, I should be able to flash the new rom onto the device right?

Exactly. Calling ATT to get the unlock code is for the SIM lock. HardSPL unlocks the SPL, which restricts the phone from being able to flash any non-ATT ROMs.
Totally different things.

I upgraded from 2002 AT&T Siemens SX56, with 6.12. I did the rom first, and it was still locked, which I thought was impossible, so went ahead with the radio upgrade and that went successfully as well, but still SIM locked! One thing that is strange is that everytime I turn it on from any state, an error warning comes up that says: "This program only works with Windows Mobile 2003 (4.20.1081)" It did that after the ROM upgrade and after the radio upgrade as well.
Help, everything works except the phone!!!
Thanks in advance..........

Thanks for the reply!!
I am running 2003 now (4.01.16) so the unlock tool will not work according to the instructions. I downloaded the xda-developers rom, but it will not allow me to use xdatools for an SD card boot. Only activesync. When I go ahead with the active sync method it tells me:
ERROR: GetConnectionType -n An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.
error getting connectiontype
Where can I go from here?
Ok, so cooked a new 2002 rom in the kitchen, installed it via SD card, and it was successful. I then went and installed the xda-developers 2002 rom that is supposed to remove simlock. It didn't. I went into the windows directory on the PPC and launced the xdaunlock right there. It then gives me an error:
XDA Unlock
error getting unlock code
I have now exhausted all options that I am aware of that exists.
Any advice?
Please?
Thanks-
Hey I did what most people said not to do and that was downgrade my radio stack, and use a cooked rom from 02 and then the xdaunlock worked fine! Then I went back and re upgraded and everything works still
The XDAunlock tool works with PPC2002 ROMs that have wmodem.exe applications, and proven not to work with certain RSUs ... so, you are left with the single option of changing the RSU ... I know it's risky to play with RSU, so you better assess your need to unlock.

How / where do I find this tool to unlock ? That would be ideal since I would like to avoid changing the RSU.
Or which RSU should I use for the current xdaunlock to work?
This thing is locked to AT&T and I need to use it on T-Mobile.
Thanks-
My excalibur is not original locked, i want to upgrade to wm6, but when i try to upgrade, i got a message error `[244].
Is not possible to upgrade if the phone is not a t-mobile dash?
Thanks
Run the installer again once you get that error message. Should be fine.
i think doesnt works, the same message error; invalid model....
thanks
Ahhh, invalid model ID! Sorry, I must have misunderstood... You need to download the bootloader upgrade first.
ftp://xda:[email protected]/smartphones/Excalibur/RUU_Excalibur_SPL-1.11_UpgradeOnly.exe
Run that and then try upgrading.
I don't know where that bootloader downgrade came from but whoever did it deserves a medal.
Allowed me to go from T-Mobile WM6 back to HTC s620. Without it, I'd have been screwed.

with spl-1.11 upgrade only same result, id error.... any solution?
Thanks a lot.
Hi,
as far as I know the only way is to unlock your phone with http://www.imei-check.co.uk

if this Update SPL 1.11 also doesn't work you'll have to unlock with IMEI-check and do this steps
but my pne is free
my phone is free, i have shop without any operator, original unlocked.
Thanks
it coud works with the modifid update with imeicheck?
I have modified these two parameters, but i have not unlock code because my htc-620 is original unlocked.
thanks in advance
The unlock which is necessary is to set the phone in "engineering mode" so that it accepts every ROM. This has nothing to do with SIM or net lock.
IMEI check sets your phone into that mode to remove SIM/net lock.
So it's a 2in1 unlock.
So even your phone accepts every SIM you have to unlock it to this engineering mode with IMEI-check. ATM there is no other known method to do this.
then, i need to send my imei to imeicheck to unlock in order to access to the engine mode?
Thanks!!
Last two days I have read all the threats in this forum for my problem but I couldnt find any solutions.
I bought my unlock s621 from compusa about a month ago and I have tryed to upgrade it two days ago. Duiring the upgrade proces when scale %3 it stoped to active sync connection.
Later I learned from this forum that this happened because I had to cid unlock before upgrade but I didnt know this before ) I chrashed original wm 6 rom.
Then I read all about treats which about this issue. I opened phone in three color bootloader mode with pushing camera buton.
I have try to learn my cid id like what write here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=379318
My phone didnt give the cid id with this method and I have tryed this one and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=379622 this one didnt help. I used several windows computers and many times.
I have tryed to install all official roms in here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=381726 but non of them help. All going to %3 and then say wrong id error 270 or 262 etc.
I learned that there is no way to unlock cid under bootloader mode I have to find original official rom which device has before.
I can't learn cid id so I dont know what was before.
Just I know when I was do hard reset to old wm6 rom was starting spanish.
Questions;
1. Anyone know that which rom can recover this phone?
2. Is there any way to cid unlock it in bootloader mode which I didnt find it.?
Thank you.
(Sory for my english)
No one knows any official Rom for this phone?
Please read the Wiki
And here you find the cid unlocker
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=415225
Good luck,
orb3000 Thank you for replay I have read all wiki but my device has turned to three color mode after first errror 270.
As I learned that device is not connect to activesync in three color mode. SDA and USPL- CID BYPASS unlockers are need actvesync for connect and unlock to device. Or device need original rom which what was before for live and connect to activesync and unlock.
Do you have any idea connect device to activesync in bootloader mode?
Thank you

Connect your phone to your PC, while he is in thebootloader and flash it with a official rom.
You don't need to connect with active sync.
jhwo99 thanks again but non of the official roms are working for my device. (I treid all official roms from this site)
I wrote htc and they said according to serial number my device came from spain I treid last official spanish rom many times with different computer but it comes just %3 then turnoff. It gives wrong ID or something like that.
Even I tried change rom version other than to 1.30.515.1 (This is the my device rom version which I tought)
I did it with some of rom cook tools (By the way I get more knowlage how to rom cook) But this time it gives error again not wrong ID but something different.
So I am looking for official spanish 1.30.515.1 rom or tool for unlock cid under boot loader without activesync.

If I connect with usb cable in press and hold camera button with battery or without battery it is working in bootloader three color screen. Not normal startup any way.
By the way I learned someone real rom version;
Rom version: 1.38.476.1

Don't connect your phone with USB cable to your PC and take out the battery.
Put it back and your phone restart.

Hi every one, my phone model is HTC Hermes 8525 locked to Att. Now it is in original box with Windows Mobile 5. I want to unlock it first. I have read articles on this BBS and aware that if I want to do future Rom flashing things I might need both SIM and CID unlocked. At same time I found several unlock code provider on Ebay.com. Now the questions come up.
1) Is Unlock code got via Ebay only for SIM unlock, or it is for both?
2) Is there any risk for such kind of unlock code for my phone? What's the worst outcome for using unlocker software downloaded here?
3) If I don't unlock my CID, can I still upgrade my phone with WM6? What specific ROM of WM6 shall I use?
4) Any other suggestion is welcomed, Ad's also.
Thanks a head

Hi and welcome to xda-developers forum!
1) I think this "unlock code" will provide you an ability to disable/re-enable SIM Lock/Operator Lock, not CID Lock (as it's platform specific and required to flash unofficial ROMs)
2) The worst is device will become brick. But it could occur only if you download and flash wrong ROM.
3) No, if it's unofficial. If HTC provided a WM6 update to Hermes (I don't remember), it could be flashed.
Good luck

i just got that phone, i found a guy on youtube for the sim unlock, it worked for my phone , now it runs a tmobile sim card ya. not sure what cid a nd all that is, on youtube most people dont give details on how to get things done but there is the one guy for the sim. next i upgraded to wm6 using a google search and deciphering through all the bull****, then i used xda for wm6.1. it all worked and i dont know **** so u should be fine, if you know how to unzip and do things with files and alwas look for exe. extentsion, that ones usually money, im trying to upgrade to 6.5 but im getting errors, first time im having propblems, so let me know anybody, about that. good luck
What phone do you have?
Hio, I have a TMOB TP2. its a locked device but I have succesfully HARD SPL's, and flashed new ROMSs.
I need to unlock the device now. I got the unlock code from TMOB but when I put in a 'foreign' SIM, NOTHING HAPPENS. I dont get the 'your device is locked' etc. I simply get no signal.
Can anyone advise?

there is a sim unlocker floating around here somewhere.
I believe you must be on the T-Mobile ROM in order to get the Foreign SIM dialogue. Flash back to the T-Mobile ROM and try again, then flash back to your desired ROM once you're unlocked. Otherwise, you can use the OliNex SIM unlocker

I meant that you need to insert the SIM while your Rhodium is using the T-Mobile ROM, not to flash the T-Mobile ROM and then immediately flash to another ROM and try again. But anyway, here's a link to the unlocker, and instructions on how to obtain it from Olipro.
