I bought an SX56 on ebay, it was locked to ATT, I unlocked it with your GREAT SER and brought it to a service provider here in Mexico, he did not know the phone and did push on the right hole of the SIM card, I think he damaged the phone, the warning is very clear : 'Dont put the stylus on the right hole to the right of the SIM card, it will cause irreparable damage to your device' . Stupid dude did not read the instructions.
The device now only can be turned on when it is on the cradle.
Helpme please!!!
did it break? if not, find a way to pull it bak in place.
if anything... open the case and rewire it.
I'm so stupid. The plastic door was not well closed, the phone was able to turn on when it was on the cradle because the walls of the cradle closed the plastic door.
Thanks to the great guys at xda-developers.com I now can use my device on MEXICOOOOO
Saludos! hehehe
Hi dude, how did u unlock the device ?
Hi mate
I got the device from a friend at the US (I am in Israel)
how did u unlock the device - is there a way to do it with out a serial cable ???
Thanks :wink:
Haim
yes! but it WILL hard reset your device!
download the 'special edition rom 1.2' from this website.
or cook your own 3.xx.xx
that one has a built in function that will permanatly remove the lock.
after that you can upgrade to any 2003 version you like.
and by the way, incase you didnt know, there are great
localizing software, in your case Hebrew, for ppc.
wich will enable you to write hebew alphabet and all...

Sounds like a blown fuse on the motherboard, do a search on this forum for details of repair procedure.
How long you had the unit?
If you, like myself, are not as technically advanced as some others, and you haven't had the phone long, send it back to whomever the manufacturer was and they will likely fix it. I bought an Siemens SX56 from ebay a couple of months ago and had the exact same problem, told me to do a hard reset first, that did nothing, then I sent it in to get fixed, apparently it was easier and cheaper for them to just send me a new unit because in about a week and half, I had one at my door. Of course, the unit I sent in was unlocked, as I use cingular and the Siemens is an ATT phone, but the new unit was locked to ATT, that's how I found this site, I had it unlocked in 5 minutes. Anyway, if you have had the phone less than 60 days, I would send it in and get it fixed.
that's one problem,
I live in the netherlands, and i bought it from my uncle who lives in Singapore....and he bought it there....
But I'll check the forum to see what I can do about it....
thnx anyway
h0t_sh0t
Dear h0t_Sh0t, I have few advices that might help..
1- Check if your device has International warrenty.
2- Check is the connector socket is loose from inside or not well connected, this is where the little thing goes inside the imate to connect. Mine got loose one month ago, and then was almost broke, then did not charge or make Sunc, I got it to be repaired at almost US $ 65.
Hope this helps.

Hello,
I ordered a new full set housing for my Cingular 8125 and it should come in the next week or two. When I get it, whats the best way to remove the original housing?
I have absoluteley no Idea how to change the housing, but don't forget to make pictures while you change.
Thanks,
Andre
Where did you get the new housing and is it different from the original one?

The 8125 wizard casing is all over ebay but some sellers charge upto $90 for it! You should find dissassembly instructions in the service manual on the FTP site. I have the MDA vario wizard casing ( no stubby aeriel ) listed on ebay under id fluffcat1.
Richard
I too would like to change my 8125 housing. I dropped mine the day after I bought it. I think the stock case was my problem. I hate tucking it in and out of that thing. I have another one coming and want to get another housing.
GSXR_6:
Where can I locate the FTP site. Sorry, I'm new and this is my first post.
I also thought of reworking the color of the housing once the warranty is passed.
Here we go, 3rd attempt (having issues with attaching file.)
HTC Wizard WIZA200 housing with MDA T-MOBILE written on bottom left and right:
Ebay Item Number 130005148788
2 more housings (almost double the price of previous) with T-MOBILE written on bottom center:
Ebay Item Number 9733402561
Ebay Item Number 9141941613
And the attached service manual is the one from the FTP just renamed from Prodigy to Wiard so i could locate it easier on my pc.
Also when disassembling your device watch out for the clips, i've broken a total of like 4 or 5 on my device, although when all put back together it is good as new.
ok, stupid thing doesn't want to attach.go to the Wiki of this site and theres an ftp tutorial of how to get to it.
Can someone please link me to the ftp page where I can download the instructions on how to replace my wizard's housing? I can't find it on the ftp site.

That's my auction
They are both original BTW, mine are t-mobile UK 'MDA vario' cases and Che_sir's are US spec - the only difference being the placing of the logos.
I only have limited quantities ( 2 left for now) and che_sir seems to have loads of 'em.
Che_sir also has digitisers and other parts that I simply cannot get hold of :-(
But I'm cheaper
Richard
HAHA, I think i messaged you on ebay asking about other parts for the wizard. Well i might have to buy one of the cases, depending on the damaged wizard i just bought on ebay for parts. We'll see.
Cingular 8125 & T-Mobile MDA
Even though these 2 are the varient from Wizard, but is the housing interchangable? What I mean is buying a Cingular housing for T-Mobile MDA. Is there a good place to buy T-Mobile MDA housing other than ebay? Thanks!! 8)
Check the FTP.

Disassembly of the 8125 (Dopod 838 case) is a little bit different from the Tmobile mda (Qtek 9100) casing. I still haven't found instructions for the 8125 but for the mda, its on the ftp site.

i didn't realize the that the 8125 was the wiza 100 (and it looks imo)
how different can it be, is it not just the shape of the housing, meaning the clips and principles must be same/similar
anyway here is another guide to disassembly (actually the stylus fix) still of the wiza200 but the pictures may be clearer if it may help

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?.
Thank you

no signal
try to flash just the radio and see if that helps.
How to??
Thanks for your reply, I don't know how to flash the radio only, would love to give it a try though, besides I am willing to provide this phone and also donate to anyone who thinks it's able to create an unlock tool for these phones.
Thank you

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?
lewnetoons, thanks a lot for the link, are you able to upload the file to a different service, I don't want to install third party stuff from zango on my PC, is it safe?.

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!

lol, yes
same thing happened to me
For a 3125, call ATT, give the IMEI and they will give you the unlock code in about 5 minutes, no charge, no questions. They asked if I was an ATT customer, I said no and they still gave it to me.

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

does it drain the battery more than normal?
I want to unlock this phone. I ve got the UNL file. BUT no cable.
ANYONE can suggest any other idea ??
OR if anybody can provide me the PINOUTs of this phone. Its socket is quite different from other HTC phones. So bit confused.
BR
just buy a cable on eBay
I bought a cable from Hong Kong ,it took me 11 days to come to Bosnia and Herzegovina,wich is good,because it's a long distance you have it on ebay.

If your intention was to SIM unlock your phone, all you have to do was to contact AT&T with with the original phone number the phone was registered with & the IMEI number.
Or get the original owner to do it for you.
Pop in your new SIM card & when prompted for the SIM Unlock code, just input the code that AT&T provides you.
No cable, no pin-outs needed.
Then, use the microSD method to flash the phone.
You're done!
But, if you want to sync with your PC, it's highly recommended that you purchase a sync-charge cable as this is about the only means to sync your phone if BT ActiveSync is not working on the ROM you're planning to upgrade to.
Hi Experts of the world!
Im having major issue with my beloved imate, i want to edit the extended rom as its bloated to hell.
Before anyone says oh just flash it, can you get my rom unlcock code from imate?
Would love WM6.1 with some code work around crack or a simple ext rom tool that actually works and lets me delete the telstra rubbish.
If it helps i have a half dead imate 9502 with the imei and rom unlock code if that can some how help.
Hi
When you find out let me know...
I've been on this quest since just after I-mate shut down. if you have the box it came in, you are in luck, as it is listed on the sticker with the IME number, if not... Don't hold your breath...
After I-Mate had shut down, I had to send my phone into Telstra for a warranty repair. It came back flashed (each of the three times it went to them), but they would not give me the code, or tell me how they got around it.
An appeal... If any service techs are out there that know how they get the code, and can let us know, there would be a lot of very greatful users.
