My name is Eli Carmi and I’m writer in site www.pocketpcfeak.com in Israel (this site is in Hebrew).
One of our readers tries yours XDA developers Special Edition ROM, but now he can not connect to GSM provider in Israel.
Can you please return to me with answer or idea how we can help him? :idea:
I feel responsible for this situation because I wrote about this update for XDA ROM, and now (after he installed it) he can not use his XDA he get - "NO SIGNAL" (I not have the privilege to have XDA).
Hmmm, strange. Did he play with the band-switch tool in 'Programs'? If so, he should be able to put it back to the correct band (900/1800 dual)using the same tool.
Otherwise, I could not think of anything that could cause this. However: the bootloader page on this site describes how to make backups of the ROM from one device and take it to the next on an SD-card (of which the contents will be lost).
Good luck...

Ah... Now there's a crucial bit of info. And would you happen to know whether the provider you want to connect to is on 900 or 1800 MHz ?
What provider are we talking about?
Hi
Im allso a very happy XDA user from israel, and i installed the SE ROM with no problems at all.
as he suggested, you have to use an SD card with the bootloader to transfer the ROM from a working unit.
To do that in israel, go to HANDY. they are a very good store for Pocket stuff and they sell the new Qtek 1010.
ask them to use the unit from the display and tell them you want to READ the ROM to an SD card, just READ it. :wink:
and use the bootloader in their unit to load the ROM into your SD card.
(this will format it).
then you can leave the store and load it to your unit.
goodluck

No, one or the other. The provider you are trying to use is on 900 or on 1800, but not on both.

I want to know is there is a possibility to Flash the HTC Hermes of Softbank:
http://mb.softbank.jp/mb/en/product/3g/x01ht/index.html
And change JAPANESE the ROM to English (or Spanish) one.
Thanks!

Beware the X01HT from SoftBAnk uses Bootloader 1.06. Basically that means that flashing it is impossible unless a fix for the bootloader issue is found. I just found out that I am stuck with Japanese now too

I had plans to go this afternoon to buy one What is this problem? I was looking in the forum but I couldn't find anything about it
The problem is that with Bootloader 1.04 the update software did not check the vendor ID of the Hermes. That meant that you could update a e.g. Cingular model with a T1 ROM or use a ROM with a different language.
Hermes that have Bootloader 1.06 (like the SoftBank X01HT) nocw ckeck that ID and won't let you update with a ROM from a different vendor....
Before you buy it, you can check mine if you are in Tokyo....
Yes, I'm living in Tokyo
So, is not possible to flash it Is there any post that speak about if they're researching to fix this issue?
Anyway, I don't speak many NIHONGO. Do you know any way to make it work in English (or almost English) ??
Other thing. I read in the Web that this model can't handle MMS. I imagine that it's because they didn't put a MMS program there. Could you make MMS work in your model?
Thanks for all!
Sesaru
Sorry for my late response here - I'd say currently there is no (easy) way to use a different ROM of the SoftBank model. I wil require somebody to come up with a solution for that, but that may take time. I'll go to the SoftBank store on the weekend to see if they plan to come up with an English model.
Right now, the unit will work in Japanese and Japanese only, no way you can get it to work in English as far as I can say at the moment.
MMS also does not work, so you are restricted to SMS. I am myself contemplating taking it back (I made an arrangement with the SoftBank people last Saturday to try how far I can get...) and get me a unit form Singapore.
So, if you are not comfortable with the restrictions, I'd rather advise to wait with the purchase. Let's see how DoCoMo will handle this...
Some more points:
You cannot use it currently as a wireless modem for your laptop (that's disabled)
There is no MSN chat on the unit (disabled too)
Outlook is fully restricted to SMS, I could not get pop or imap access to any other mail account to work.
I had the opportunity right now to compare a frirends DOPOD variation - he bought in Singapore. e uses it while visiting here utilizing his Singapore SIM roaming. On his, all functions work, including wireless modem, etc.
In my opinion, SoftBank did a great job in crippling the X01HT to the extent that it is less functional than an odinary Japanese 3G phone. My best advise is to buy a unlocked in Singapore or Taiwan. Alternatives on the Japanese market are the Wilcom units (but agreed, they are big and ugly compared to the sleek X01HT)
Hope that helps...

That's impossible. Softbank is removing all the staff for gaijins that Vodafone put here. For example, now WAP (Yahoo! Keitai) don't have any in English (I used the "last train" opcion a lot in the past).

You can still get that - on you phone, start the browser, the second left icon on the top and you are back on the old page where you can find the 'English' link at the botoom. But I agree, SoftBank is a huge step away from opening Japan to the West....
I probably have the chance to travel to Singapore within the next 3 weeks and will check the price there. I got friends in Singapore as well as in Taiwan and China who could ship the unit to me...
Hi!
this is the UK Expansys url. There are other deals with different accessories etc.
http://www.expansys.com/product.asp?code=TYTN
Ofiaich
Outch, this is expensive, considering that I got mine here as an update deal for my old mobile for something around $150-US... so I should not worry about the restrictions too mucｈ... ;-) I now managed to get Gmail up and running in mobile Outlook, so the SoftBank model becomes more and more practical.
What I still do not understand is why they disabled using it as a modem - that is really the single biggest drawback for me. The modem applet is simply not there and without it, dialup from my laptop via Blootooth does not work. It works fine with the same SIM in a Vodafone 3G phone, so I conclude it must e the missing modem app...
BTW, as an anectode - I recall the street price I saw in Taipei 3 weeks ago must have been somewhere near US-$ 400.--
Thanks for the link though!

Hi. First let me say I'm glad I found this site, and the info about unlocking the Softbank X01HT. Because of this I decided to get one.
Secondly. The problem is they are completely sold out no matter where I look.
Currently I use a Symbian UIQ Motorola M1000 (A1000) with Docomo and Mopera for push e-mail.
I have noticed it's possible to get hold of a Softbank X01HT for about 48,000JPY off Yahoo auctions, so I'm considering getting one that way just to try it out. But whether I try it with Docomo or get a contract with Softbank is the problem. Even though the hardware should be the same, there seem to be a couple of major differences.
Docomo:
Docomo provides push e-mail and WiFi hotspots via Mopera.net to the HTCz
Docomo sells only 1 phone which is advertised as using HSDPA, and it is *NOT* the HTCz, in fact HSDPA is not mentioned on any of the literature surrounding the HTCz, including HTCs own site at japan.htc.com
Softbank:
Softbank tells me that the HTCz does *not* have push e-mail capability.
Now if I'm going to replace the software anyway how can they be different?
Does anyone know if you *can* use push e-mail (via mopera.net, for example) with a Softbank contract, or if you *can* use HSDPA with a docomo contract using the rebranded Hermes?
I would like to use BOTH! Battery life sucks if the phone has to go and check for e-mail every 5 minutes.

HSDPA is not enabled on docomo rom. you can enable it by using fit4cat Hermes Tweaker but i hear that it doesn't work on docomo network.

softbank doesn't provide push email services but that doesn't mean that you can't use push email with using softbank. you can use 3rd party who provides the push email service. search the threads about those in this forum. for an example, read this thread.

you can't access mopera with the softbank contract but you can run push email with using softbank as mentioned in above. if you insist on mopera, you need to have docomo usim with htc z. flashing docomo rom on whichever hermes may work but i am not sure as i have never tried that. i have docomo usim but mopera push email does not work on my wwe rom and i haven't found any workaround yet. if you want to use HSDPA, you need softbank.

if you want to use both, you may want to use softbank with a 3rd party push email service. with all that said, i don't recommend to those who don't want to use japanese rom going for softbank for now. they will be changing the ap id/password soon and you need their new rom only in japanese until someone cracks the new rom for the password. read this.

Thanks for your reply. I had seen the revelation about sofbank's new lockout policy. I may wait a bit to see how that pans out before taking the plunge. Either that or it's a good incentive to hurry up with my kanji study!

What IS actually this lockout policy? Seems they pulled out all X01HTs from sale these days (They said sold out)... I was trying to buy one for whole week, checked 12 different stores (Tokyo area), nowhere to be found! If anybody knows where to buy it, and share this info I'm buying pack of any beer, not kidding!
At one of the big shops in Shibuya, they mentioned something about ongoing 'softo' change that is taking place, and they also said that X01HT should be available again in one or two weeks!?!
I suspect the softo change is just to update their ROM and make it un-unlockable.. you can always buy one from yahoo auctions if you can dish out some spare cash (35,000~45,000yen?)

i tried this myself but it couldn't really solve the issue with using docomo usim. it kills that annoying screen once when booting up and the device becomes operable, but that screen comes up again every now and then even when i'm in the middle of typing something. if you are using it as a pda with no usim in it, that screen won't come up again once it's killed.
i heard that imei-check in the uk has a solution to this.

3125 unlocking help.
Hi, I tried to sim-unlock a locked 3125 with this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?p=2459703 , after that the phone gave me a ''fatal error" "data crashes" message, I had a backup of the supercid file of the phone (file made with the spv-developers supercid tool), I flashed the file back and now I don't have the "fatal Error" message, and the phone accepts other sim cards different from the cingular sim, but the phone has no signal at all, all the other stuff works fine, I appreciate any advice anybody could give me to restore the signal (service) back to the phone, or that means the phone is still locked?.

Sim unlock? is it still necessary?
How about using one of the new sim-card chips which you place under the sim card (you might have to cut off a small piece of the sim card plastic) and it supposedly eliminates the need for an unlock? The phones (so I have heard) word as if they were unlocked with all cards.
The chips are called x-sim or something.
If you know if it works - give some feedback
Do you have other link?

X - sim
I think the universal or tornado sim will work, however I have not used them, I'll give them a try and let you know.
X-sim, xsim turbo sim
I tested the x-sim card and it works.
Right now I have a Nokia e51 because my Startrek died on me (power connector just fell out... can you believe it!?)
I can see no reason why the CHEAP x-sim (bought my for 9 Euros with postage) should not work on other phones.
I simply cut away a piece of the card (so that the small chip on the xsim can sit there tightly - so not too big a piece) and inserted it carefully - simply no simlock, none at all, with any card I tried.
It works on 3g sim cards as well.
@dakiro
where did you buy this x sim for only 9,= euros with postage? i can't find it that cheap anywhere.
tx in advance for reply!

Just got myself a brand new Cingular 3125 off ebay. Called AT&T to ask for an unlock code, but they told me that that serial and IMEI number is not listed in their database...and I should contact the manufacturer. Did it fall of the truck before it reached AT&T???
Anyhow I have mailed HTC for an unlock code 4 days ago and still no reply

there's no unlocking software for i717
you need to buy the unlocking code from any of those online unlock sites
make sure you find a well reputed one
If I unlock it will it work in India on 2g and 3g network??
Big Than To Codeworkx and the Cyanogenmod Team
It'll work on 2G for sure. What 3G bands does your network use? Hard to answer the 3G part without that information

Appears to be Bharti Cellular which I believe uses 1900 MHz. Could be wrong though.
If your network uses 850/900/1700/1900/2100 MHz (the 1700/2100 come through a radio flash though) then yes you could use the AT&T/Rogers Galaxy note on 3G/2G in India

^ Listen what the man said
Anyone knows about Unlockclient.com?
Hello everyone!!!
I just got my at&t gnote from bestbuy, and doing some research for the unlock, I found a site called unlockclient (dot) com
The process in this case doesn't include a code to do the unlock like other sites. They let you download some software first and after you make the paypal payment, they give you a "pin" that with this program, it resets all the phone codes to zero....
So, it'll be much appreciated if someone knows about them, to post here the opinions that might consider...

I don't understand why you wrote that, unless you know about them... But I'll be so grateful if you could advise me about this process...
I emailed the developer about his unlock software, he has not had a chance to test anything other than the stock GB rom that ships with our phone. He asked if I would be willing to beta test ICS unlock and I took the bait. As soon as he gets back with me with a pin # I will let you guys know my results.

Hey jb0nd38372, thank you for your interest in the subject... Hope this ends in a positive way for us as new users of this phone...
And by the way, do you recommend me to unlock the device with cellunlocker service or should I wait to unlockclient answer? (Note that I still haven't rooted the phone)
Hi.. I have been trying to unlock the sgh i717 without paying .. No luck so far.. But i did come across a file "samsung unlock calculator v 0.9" but i m unable to download it. I was reading the comments on the site whr the file is located and it seems ppl are very pleased with the results. Can anyone download it and post it here since it requires some stupid survey to b completed first and thn the download will tk place. My problem is i live in dubai and all the stupid surveys are not available in this country. Pls help!!!
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
any method via usb? atleast a website that cost below $25 unlock for the note?
Just called att Im using the note on prepaid. The rep said that the phone is unlockable but i have to wait and that sometime from july-december for them to have the codes available for my phone. Kind of bummed because i won my note at work and att typically just needs proof of purchase to unlock the device......

Hi, I will receive a Lumia 920 'Orange Brand' from France.
I'd like to know if there is any way to de-brand it.
My goal is flash it using an Italian operator-free ROM.
What is the best/newest rom (Firmware Black I suppose) to use?
Are there any potential problem flashing lumia using different country rom?
Regards
Fabio
Mine I've bought it unbranded, if you search the forum, you'll find a way to do that.
BTW, my L920 is Italian country variant, great rom with fast updates.
Unbrand L920

Thank you guy for your help , but now I've discovered that this Lumia 920 is 'Orange France Sim locked'. It does not work with any aother different sim.
I suppose that flashing rom is not the solutions to 'sim-unlock' this phone.
Looking around I found many sites that can send me the unlock code but I don't know if they are safe and secure.
Do you know any secure site that can help me... obviously I prefer the cheaper one.
Are there any another way to sim-unlock my lumia? using 3rd party software or something else?
Regards
Fabio

No, flashing a ROM Windows Phone does not desimlock the device.
Look a site of desimlock that suits you best (in the first Google results).
Hello. I have a Nokia lumia 920, from Orange France ,and I umbraded, using a website. If you wait, i can post it here.
I have to look through my email.
Here.

Use this website. It's a Romanian website. I can show you on my phone with printscreen. I think you can talk to that guy in english. He'll understand. And it's pretty cheap though.

The term of your talk is not unbrand but it is desimlock, it is not the same thing
You might be right. But after desimloc thinghy, I think you can change ROM without any problem.
The thing was, that even if you switch the rom, with another one, the simlock would stay.
Sorry for my english. I'm not a native speaker.

You can unbranded your device (your term, "change ROM") without first desimlock...
And indeed, change ROM does not desimlock the device.
