SimLock - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development

Can someone help me?! Please!
Last January I upgraded my cousins XDAII to WM2003 SE and it was succesful.
Unfortunately early February he dropped his XDA and the motherboard needs to be replaced by Brightpoint. After 2 weeks of waiting for the motherboard finally he was able to get the unit last Saturday Feb 19. Then of course his OS again is back to 1.66wwe.
So we try to upgrade it again and it went on smoothly till the end.
But when we finished doing the hard reset the following message appeared
"Network is locked, Please input unlock code"
then there is a box wherein u need to enter the code.
Since we dont know the code, we just tried to guess it and nothing happens, so the display was stuck to that part and the unit was useless.
We brought it back to Brightpoint and they reloaded the former OS and the unit was ok once again.
of course I tied to upgrade it again just now.
and again the message " Network is locked..." was there again.
What could be the problem???
I ask Brightpoint if they were already locking the XDAs to the Telcos, they said they do not.
I also tried the unlock process posted here at XDA-developers and the result says that the unit is already unlocked.
So what went wrong???

help my wizard dont turn on

hi
when i flash my wizard to pandoras box 3.0 with the shell tool my wizard reboots and dont turn on no bootmode no nothig can you help me
Hi,
Try using Wizard Love to get you back on. But, follow the instructions!!
Here is the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=310831

If the phone doesn't turn on at all, first check the battery and make sure its charged and all that. check and see if u get 13 volts on it using a multimeter. If this is then you probably bricked your phone probably because you flashed a G3 rom on ur G4 device. I just did that and that y im saying it. I sent it back to cingular and they reflashed the bootloader for me with no charge as it was still under wanrranty according to the serial number on my phone. I bought the phone off of ebay and i thought i didnt have warranty but i got lucky. good luck with ur stuff.
I am now in the same situation.
I cannot get into bootloader mode to flash wizard love (I had a sucessfull flash of XM6 on a CID locked G4 with shelltool then it stoped working after a reset)
What can I do? bought the phone off ebay, it was said it was 11 months old...
If anyones got any ideas, would apreciate the help.
thx about all your posts but i need a mother board main board coz the boot loader is corrupted and there is no solution either the jtags in my case so i will get to the factory or buy an another device or get a bad condition wizard o a motherboard of wizard
Boards run somewhere around US$175 (This was what the person at the service center told me). I would highly recommend you to send the phone in and ask them to just reflash the bootloader part. You wont need to get a new board. It would be much cheaper.
For the other person who got his phone off of eBay, mine is off of eBay too. Cingular still covered my phone under the manufacturers warranty even though I am not a cingular customer. So again, my suggestion is to send it in to get it fixed and you may get lucky like me and not get charged anything. They even changed the outer housing of my phone at no charge. No idea why. When you flashed the rom on your phone, you probably flashed a G3 rom on your G4 device. It will flash successfully but once u restart the phone, it wont turn on, not even into the bootloader mode. This means your bootloader files are corrupted. Exact same thing happened to me by mistake and I flash 5 or 6 different roms on my phone pretty much every day. mistakes always happen, good to know that there are ways to fix it and not have to buy a whole new device.
Hope this info helps. Let me know if you need any other info or help. Good luck.
thx for the info friend but in mexico is more dificult send it to the htc to the boot loadder but well i will try it with movistar also i was looking for a device or a mo therboard
How do I check whether my phone is under warranty or not and what is Cingular number to call ?
Please help, thank you!

Tried all unlocking info in this forum to no avail...

Hi,
I am a long time user but first time poster on this forum. I have had many WM phones and am currently fighting my newly purchased TG01.
I have an unlock code from Vitamise but no matter what I try I can not get the phone to bring up the simunlock screen.
I have tried the original tosh / orange rom and several custom roms. The tosh / orange rom does nothing just shows "searching..." and all the custom roms I have tried tell me they have a problem loading "simunlockp.exe" when I insert my O2 sim. My have an Orange sim which works fine so it isn't a radio problem.
Is there anyway to manually call the simunlock mode? Or am I totally missing something?
Thanks in advance for your help, I have silently solved so many problems with info from this site and this is the first time I am at a loss.

First of all:
as far as I know you can unlock tg01 on original/stock(toshiba) ROMs only!
Yeah I read about that.
It had the original orange / tosh rom when I got it and to be totally sure I reflashed it with the rom from the tosh website. Still no luck, no unlock screen, just "searching..." and "Sim Blocked" displaying on the orange home screen.
i have the exact same problem anyone got a solution PLEASE ! even tried flashing back to the stock rom and says invalid wont flash it ? (from toshiba website)

You have to use SDDL+ to flash the orginal rom back to the phone
Yeah I had that problem too, the file you need is in this forum just search for it.
I am on the original rom but still no luck.
I took the phone into an orange shop today, they had a look and declared it was "weird" that it wasn't showing the unlock screen, I then spent ten minutes on hold to customer services who also decided it was weird and told me the "technical team" will call me back in the next couple of days.
Is there anyway to call the unlock screen manually, or unlock the phone with a code from the dialler like when you use *#06# to display the IMEI?
n00j...use original rom put the locked sim card and hard reset then you will be able to use the unlock code you got from vitamise

So you should know that this problem is temporarily unsolvable
Only xsim works.

Ok, I have heard stuff about limited functionality and possible damage to your phone when using these things... is that true?
this might be a little off topic but i heard that if you type 3 ulock codes wrong you can not unlock you device
if is not true please provide a link because i didn't find one

Right, went to a phone unlocking shop today and the guy basically told me he has never successfully unlocked an Orange TG01.
He also told me he had to stop selling rebel sims as he had way too many complaints from his customers about them not working, he had a some left though and agreed to sell me one real cheap as long as I promise not to return it
I got one for a quid and can confirm it doesn't work, I get all functions but can't receive incoming calls or texts.
Basically I am giving up and will sell this locked phone to buy an unlocked one.
Thanks to everyone one this forum for all the help and discussion though, just seems the Orange TG01 is impossible to unlock....
You can also try app from this thread Maybe you will be the most lucky person here

You don't need to spend such an amount of money(30eur): vitamise do the job for 10gbp~11eur, quick&accurate.
P.S.Yes, it is true.
For safety: (on stock toshiba ROM) put a sim not supported by your tg01 and if asks for unlock code everything should be ok for a future unlock by code.
Use vitamise service with no fear, he has best recommendations...
I have unlocked Orange TG01. Vitamise sent me unlock code and everything was OK. I can recommend him. In the beginning I had no idea how to use the unlock code but he told me to try hard reset with locked sim inside. I did it and then I was asked for unlock code...

[Q] WTF have I done right???

Strange little story– A tale of (apparent) success snatched from the jaws of chronic stupidity and without any idea why it all worked.
I was given an unwanted X10 Mini Pro for my daughter – which was locked to 3 UK. So I unlocked it using a server unlock bought through eBay. That all worked perfectly but then I wanted to unlock the bootloader and install CM9.
I’d installed CM7 on another X10MP for a friend last year and so I had S1tool etc but of course it reported “RA0405” (locked bootloader) and “non recognised certificate” . (Awww, sh1t !)
Well then I read that flashtool can now unlock the bootloader so I thought I’d give it a try. Running Flashtool 8.10 I tried it but couldn’t get beyond the pop-up window where it asks you to connect the phone in flash mode. (Aww, Double sh1t!!)
Then clicking around the options on flashtool I came across “Root” and thought I’d give it a go in case the BL unlock needed root access. Well it threw up a few lines of text and reported that I was rooted. I re-ran the BL unlock again but no joy. (Awwww, double bugg3ry sh1t!!!).
Call me pig-headed but I then tried S1tool one last time. Again, it don’t work but it did throw up one line that told me specifically that while I still had the dreaded “Capital R” locked bootloader that it was “already rooted”.
On the basis that the phone had cost me nothing and that “root” normally indicates “take me any way you like , big boy” I then went back into flashtool and flashed the NaA ICS kernel. It worked!
I tried to restart into CWM – It worked too!! I wiped and flashed CM9 – It worked!!!!
I rebooted praying to all the saints that it wouldn’t bootloop and eventually a lockscreen appeared and it let me in to the start of the usual setup wizard.
Now, the BL unlocking guides all said that forcing a BL unlock with a non-SEMC/SETools or Optimus unlocked phone ccould either break your Sim-unlock or bork your radio functions completely so I still wasn’t optimistic but I shut the phone down slapped in my daughter’s Voda SIM, restarted and – “By the sacred balls of St Bartholemew!!” everything works just perfectly.
Now my question is simple. In true “idiot savant” mode have I got to the right end-point by a totally illogical and a “that should never have worked” series of blunders? Or could someone intelligent tell me why it worked and (if so) why it isn’t already written-up somewhere as another way to get past your BL and do a custom ROM install?
I’m not touching the damn thing again – in case my luck has now run out - that much I do know……
Could you post the output of S1Tool?
Unlocking the bootloader on an unrecognised simlock-certificate MAY work, but more often than not it destroys the radio-capability.
I'm fairly sure your bootloader is unlocked, can't imagine the nAa-kernel working otherwise, but without the output of S1Tool there's no way of telling

Moto G4 needs help Unlocking Bootloader

Motorola G4 XT1625
Minor Problem: Phone will not start normally, only boots into Fastboot mode.
Minor Problem: Phone is oem Locked
Major Problem: I never went into "settings" on the phone and ENABLED OEM UNLOCKING.
Question: Is it possible to get this phone flashed with stock ROM?
A little background. Not a developer, phone started acting up a few days ago, shutting down or rebooting on its own, do not remember anything such as an update or my clearing of the cache occurring in that time frame, but I was still hoping it was a software issue that would work itself out. Now the phone fails during start up and reports this
STARTUP FAILED
ERROR: Failed to pass validation , backup to fastboot.
It does mention I should use Software Repair Assistant to recover the phone, which correct me if I'm wrong , only works with Verizon phones. I did try the SRA, it connected to the phone, but would stall about halfway through.
I have found much info on this forum regarding unlocking the bootloader of this phone, I have installed on Moto tools on my PC, requested and received an unlock code, connected to the phone and can send commands via command line. Unfortunately when I send the oem unlock the phone responds that I need to enable development mode in settings, which I cannot get to because the phone wont boot to the OS. Is there an easy way around this that I'm just not seeing?
In the end the problem may be hardware related, I just hate to give up on it so easily. Contacted Motorola about the device, as it turns out the unit was 6 days out of warranty ( that's if you use the Amazon ship date, it was only actually 2 days out if you use the activation date). Their response was as expected, sorry can't help you, thanks for being a Motorola customer, have wonderful day, next........

Big problem with the FRP Google lock

Hello,
i am Stanley from germany and i wanted to ask you here for help. I bought from a guy his used Xperia Tablet Z4 in white SGP-771 with an cracked display. So i ordererd an new display changed it and wanted to make an factory reset. The problem was, i deleted first his google account in the settings and the next moment the black death screen appeared: protected!
I had then tried to restore the firmware or to flash an older firmware to make an downgrade...everything fails. I contacted the pre owner and told him to delete this device frm his account but the says he cannot remember the password from his old account and also not for the recovery adress. It seems he is an cell phone shop trader so he changes the phones and tablets evertime.
OK guys, what should i do now? I am the rightous new owner of this tablet but cannot use it because of the google frp lock. Acutally i flashed the Android 5.1 but it seems this black pretoect screen is in the bootloader integrated and pops up everytime. Unfortunately the bootloader is not unlocked and the developer settings are not set of course because i resetted the device. Is there any hope to get this baby back with some tools and cool tips from you experienced guys?
It would help me a lot..
thanks in advance
I managed again to get in contact with the seller and achieved an unlock from the tablet. Case can be closed
