correct. it requires to be able to flash the radio stack in order to unlock it, but the radio stack of that new rom seems to be read only and flashing another radio stack is not possible at this time.
I could not find in google as well but get somewhere else with slighly different filename. Not sure the same one or not. Can somebody please confirm,

It's possible.
Hello I'm french, first sorry for my bad english.
I just bought a V1605 from england that I have immediatly unlocked.
I have tested French qtek ROM 1.18.256... but it's very slow and there are many bugs, after that I have tested a WWE qtek ROM 1.18.416... with bootloader 1.06 just for see if TCPMP was better and it is!
But I wanted the last Qtek ROM, so I have put the original ROM of my vodafone in order to downgrade bootloader to 1.04, it's very simple!
Then I've installed the latest QTEK ROM 1.35 with bootloader 1.09, and now after few very fast manipulations , I have bootloader 1.04 and radio 1.20.
So I can test every ROMs I think...
For the moment, I can see that this ROM (1.35) is very fast, and TCPMP works better but for the video it is the same than vodafone 1.20 or tytn 1.18.416 .

1.04 to current boot rom?
After downgrading to 1.04 and doing all the upgrades, is there any reason to reupgrade 1.04 to a more current boot rom?
hi there,
seems i`m not able to downgrade after after flashing the 1.35 rom. my bootloader remains 1.09 and the downgrade_spl (1.8mb rar) tool doesn`t work properly. i always have to recover my device when i try to run the upgrade. is there something i do wrong or is my downgrade_spl the wrong one?
thanks jammerlappen
additional questions: am i able to flash a) other radio roms b) complete roms with bl 1.09 and supercid?

may something be wrong with the link in your llink?
thank you anyway! it is good news, i didn`t break my tytn (-:
it is an old revision of a page where there where the instructions initially... so the link is not there anymore... but you said you have it.
hmmm, the files i have obviously do not work
Just want to summerize the situation for existing 1.09 owner of X01HT, the current state of the unlocking process is follows:
1) Unlock 1.09 can ONLY be done by imei-check (GBP $20)
2) After unlocked, your device will be SUPER-CID
3) Then it can be flashed BL MFG 1.01 in order to upgrade BL to 1.09 for
upgrading the radio rom (currently only radio ver. 1.27 can be flashed)
OR if you dun need the phone function, just want to use PDA instead BUT want to use your desire language rom (Chinese, French etc.....)
1) You need this software "DownGrade_SPL.rar" to downgrade your BL to
1.04 in order for you to be able to flash other language OS.
2) "DownGrade_SPL.rar" can be found on the search engine like google or
china search engine like baidu.com.......
Hope this help
Thank you mj13,this helps.I wonder if there is a future plan for free unlocker.
It's a bit better than this.
With SuperCID & 1.01MFG BL you can easily go to 1.04 BL. Instructions on this are in the Wiki and the 1.04BL itself is included in the 1.01MFG bl download.
The bootleg 1.04bl downgrade solution is no longer required!
or... If you're more technically inclined you can flash using 1.01MFG bootloader...
you can extract os.nb from the rom of your choice using pof's nbhextract tool then just flash it directly using the "lnb" command in the 1.01MFG bootloader. Instead of 30 minutes, this will take < 5 minutes.
While you're at it, change your splash screens too
May I ask one thing? If I already in 1.04. Could I use the unlock from IMEI directly?? Furthermore, I can' input chinese. Are your PPC OK?
Is after # 2 enough to unlock the X01HT Post December release?

Please clarify if after # 2, the X01HT is unlocked already. I just confuse why to do the flashing. Many thanks in advance.

#2 is unlocking the phone, but if you need to upgrade the radio version, it is better to do the #3 process as MFG 1.01 let you just upgrade the BL itself instead of FULL ROM upgrade. Of course, if you are satisfy with your current radio version, #2 will be just fine.

I have the chinese input. But no chinese word out.
But it is OK now (After I reset the PPC) Thanks all of your help.
Wish me good luck. I will do the unlock this Friday.
I am currently running the Cingular 2.25.0001 ipl/spl .. is there a better one out there that would be safe to upgrade to on my 8125 G4?
lol.. No one has any suggestions?! lol .. I see a couple people with 2.26 and 3.08 .. just wondering how those would work with my G4
You've got a WHOLE LOT of reading to do if you're thinking about changing your IPL/SPL on a G4 Wizard.
Good Luck!!
that's what I figured.. I wasnt sure if it was safe to do... or easier to do with my CID unlocked..
This thread would be the perfect place to start.
HA! Thanks newbie.. I guess I will be leaving my IPL/SPL alone .. .. Maybe I will wait for cingular to make an update.. lol.
I have :
O2 XDA mini S G4 CID locked
IPL/SPL 3.08.0001;
Radio 2.69.11;
OS 10.2.0.8 WWE mUn_aRTM
Just flash this rom

then you have German OS with IPL/SPL 3.08.0001. Radio 2.69.11
OS can you reflash later.
Question I have is.. What exactly does the IPL/SPL do? lol ..
apparently doesnt let you make calls. every time i try to dial a number, it says your international call cannot be completed as dialed... its useless, i just did it on my g3.

IPL and SPL are your bootloaders.
They initialize and load your OS and radio. different versions have different commands available to them and in some cases a higher number means a better version. In others the higher number means there are security "fixes" that will make it harder for you to flash your phone.
For a Wizard I have seen no reason to update higher than the T-Mobile 2.26. But then again you should only do this if you have a G3. Flashing G3 bootloaders into a G4 device will irrevocably brick it.
I believe (don't quote me on this though) that only official carrier roms (newer than the G4 device) contain both G3 and G4 bootloaders and as such are safe to flash to a G4 device. I would confirm this with your carrier before doing so though.
Hi
this method works perfectly
Now have a G4 CID locked update to IPL/SPL 3.08.0001
Thx
Just flash with Deutsch ROM to update IPL/SPL

Yes I do.
I am a french guy, my provider is Ten Mobile.
I already have brick my Wizard before. Thanks to the guarantee, it was repaired.
Just replace Updater by ROMUpdateUtility-NoVendorID.
2 days of use nothing to announce.

I have a G4 CID locked phone and IPL/SPL thats older than 2.26 and I see no reason to update them still, considering that I can upgrade everything else (OS, radio, ext rom, splash) without touching IPL/SPL. Of course, I am a little more cautious having bricked (yes, real "replacement required" type brick) my phone once.

You flashed your O2 (G4 and CID locked device) with T-Mobiles ROM?! Sounds crazy to me... Are You sure that your device is CID locked at all? Even G4 device may be CID unlocked, using imei-check - only way this thing have some sense...
Can SPL 2.21.0001 downgrade to 1.06 and smaller?

why? even with NoID updater it's not possible to update a locked G4?
Hi,
Is it always necessary to cid unlock a device (G4) for WM6 flashing?
Because I read that there is currently no way doing this for free... or?
Thanks.

Read the wiki at first. You don´t have to unlock for flashing, but to downgrade your prophet to a special version. Then you can flash some of the versions you prefer.

CID lock has nothing to do with the OS. you can upgrade/downgrade your OS with CID lock phone. on the other hand you can not dowgrade your IPL/SPL if your phone is CID lock. ( don't change IPL/SPL if you don't know what they are)
Yes, before I can upgrade to WM6 it should be AKU2.2 ... Which software version is it when I look at device information?
so, if i have a g4 model with wm5, can i upgrade with the PDAViet 4.0.0.0.6 Touch? i've been reading wiki, but... there are always some kind of a fear to do the things for the first time...
thank's wiki's masters!
I owned a HTC Wizard, and now I just got a Atom.
To refresh ROM into HTC Wizard, first you have to determine the device version is G3 or G4, and get the IPL/SPL version, then unlock the Cid. Otherwise the Wizard would be bricked.
But I noticed in the atom updating, few thread talk about Cid, IPL/SPL, or G3/G4,
Does Atom need unlock the Cid? or IPL/SPL? or bootloader?

Welcome to the atom family =)
As I understand what you are trying to say is flash the rom (as stated above as refresh). There is a different way for the atom in upgrading the rom, unlike in your previous unit as wizard. it would be better if you will read the wiki first prior to flashing the rom at once. You would be more familiar with your unit as well, just click on my sig on the wiki and all your questions will be answered. enjoy reading!
updated rom successfully.
Thanks a lot

Good to hear that =)
the reason other devices need to unlock CID is to flash other ROMs. CID - country ID. if you have a CHT device and want to move to WWE, BUT there is no CID unlocking in Atom because you simply change the hex values in ROM and you can flash it to your device. So, no need for it.
