if I use your unlocker for my phone and i unlock SIM.
Sometime, perhaps i need original Orange settings (Orange locked)(for waranty for example). If i push soft keys and reset (hard reset), do I obtain originaly Orange settings?
Best regards and thanks.
PS. At very old PC ('80 generation) like Sinclair Spectrum, we load one program on it memory. Is it the same principal??????
Once you use the sim unlocker you can't lock it back. Hard reset will only clear permanent storage (remove apps and files you've), but will not lock your phone again.
thank you very much for this answer!
best regards!

I got an SPV M1000 locked to orange, unlocked it and it works fine. I though I would unhide then unlock extended rom, remove all extended rom, then replace with an O2 extended rom that I had backed up on my pc. I made sure that I relocked and rehid the extended rom after this, when hard reset it does everything ok, then the screen dims as if the battery is being disconnected, simialr to a hard reset where the screen becomes dimmer and dimmer but the light stays on. Any idea why. Basically I just want it to be an O2 phone, anybody got any ideas as to the best rom and extended version to use??
From what I can remeber when I did just the opposite to you (PAYG Orange sets up so easily, but not so on O2), and the M1000 has an earlier ROM than the XDA II. There could be incomptabilities between the programs in ExtROM and the base OS.
Unfortunately this would mean that you might need to reflash the whole device. As you need to re-install everything, it is a bind doing this - especially as you need to get the operator code right as well.
Always assuming that your m1000 doesn't have another issue, you may have to bit the bullet.

Hy guys,
I have a post Dec.2 x01HT and have the following problem. I have bought the imei-check unlocker when it came out and used it. Originally it worked, I tried it with a DOCOMO SIM and everything was nice, but when I tried a GSM SIM it still said simlock....
I e-mailed imei-check and they said I have to do the unlock during a hard reset before the softbank settings screen and that is what I did. After that my device worked with a GSM Sim, but I had a ton of problems: the windows hangs every few hours and I have to reset the set, also I cannot get the hold-down vibrate function of the radio button to work, the reaction time of the touch screen is very slow etc.
I also noticed that if I hard-reset without using the imei-check unlocker after the settings procedures there is an auto customization procedure that runs and customizes the phone to the softbank settings and looks, but if I do the hard reset and unlock with imei-chek this procedure doesn't run and I suspect that is part of the reasons for all the problems.
I was wondering if anyone has experienced similar problem and can help me solve this problem?
I was also wondering if I run the free unlocker on my device will it work better?
P.S. I am using the original Softbank ROM with the English MUI by Asukal.

You can still do the customization manually. There is only one file that you aren't supposed to run. Just unlock your EXT-ROM and install the cabs one by one. Pof has a Softbank extended rom with the bad file removed around here somewhere. In any case the "fix" cabs are all over the place and you probably don't even need to run the softbank stuff if you don't want to.
Thanks,
I am not too much into these things. Originally all I wanted was to SIM unlock my set, but I will try to find how to do all the things you said...to unlock the EXt-ROM and install the cabs myself.
Can anyone tell which cab exactly I should NOT install?
I have downloaded the Softbank Extended ROM from here, but it seems to have even more cabs than in my original ExtRom on the device. I would appreciate a list of which cabs to install or not to install.
Thank You all
So how does this IMEI unlock could work?
Hi
I was given an Orange SPV M600 running WM5.0 I foolishly thought I would be able to unlock it to work with my T-Mobile sim (the only network I can get coverage at home) I ran an unlock tool from en.pdamobiz.com
http://files.pdamobiz.com/c/PDAMobiz.com_ProphetAKU2_unlockCID.rar
I managed to get to through to the completion of the Downgrade.bat process. I was then asked to sofdt boot the M600 but it now cannot be found by Activesync. I was unable to successfully run Unlockcid.bat and now it just boots to either the 'Orange' screen (displaying IPL 2.10.0001, SPL 2.10.0001, GSM 02.07.20 & OS 1.0.13.21 - the new OS I believe) or the 3 colour screen (displaying IPL 2.10.0001, SPL 2.10.0001) if I hold down the camera button.
Windows 5.0 has gone or is unreachable but I am assuming it can't be completely dead as I get a noise when connecting/disconnecting the USB lead....
Is this false hope? Have i killed it after 2 days of ownership??? Should I have attempted this process with very little tech knowledge - me thinks YES!
I would be eternally greatful to anyone who can help me out of this black hole..... I just need pointing in the direection of what stage the M600 is at and how to get it running on my T-Mobile sim.....
Thanks in advance
hi there, try going into the bootloader screen, when you connect the usb cable it should show on the bottom off your screen. then try uploading the orange rom you can find on the wiki page. if this works then try using the loki unlocker which you should also be able to find on the wiki page. i used the loki tool and it unlocked first time. hope this helps. let me know how you go.
The GOOD news is No you haven't killed it. It seems you have wiped the operating system from it. I would sugest searching for RUU-Prophet-G4-AKU2.2-2.20-2.47.21-Jester-r1.exe down load it and then get your phone to the multi colour screen before running the download. This should then update your phone
when I tried to unlock my phone, I couldn't get it to unloack at all till I put a orange pay as you go sim in the phone and registered the sim with orange then it unlocked first time.
Killed prophet reborn!!

Spot on. Thanks so much for the advice. Fingers666 & jazpa !! I'm back on track. M6000 is now communicating again. WM5 is resident. Just need to unlock the sim and I'm away. [email protected] tried loki 3.0 amd 3.0a with both Activesync 4.2 and 4.5 respectively without any luck so I've just spent £5 a http://www.unlocking.org.uk/ as they say they can unlock a G4 ver. We shall see!! Great help though and THANKS again to both of you

Hello i was wondering if anybody could help me.

Download Lokiwz, it is quite easy to locate. Inside the folder you will find 1 or 2 cab files, copy these to your storage card and run them on your M600. Now run Lokiwiz from your PC, after around 12 minutes, it will display your sim unlock code. Switch off your M600 and insert the sim you want to use, at the prompt, enter your code lokiwiz generated. For around 2 minutes the phone will seem to have no signal, then it will connect.
Worked first time for me, my M600 was locked to Orange, now it works great with O2.
wonderful works great with G4
thanks

My two weeks old Softbank X01HT PDA got stuck on its start up with Windows Mobile screen. All key clicks can be heard, but nothing is happening. When dialing from another phone, ringing tone can be heard but PDA shows nothing. Few days back I tried to install freeware called ScreenLock, but failed in registraition. I suspect whether it works.
Anyway I tried soft reset, but still stuck. CD & Manual received are in Japanese, hence I am helpless. What can I do?
I think you should perform a hard reset, But all your datas (phone book, installed applications ,...) would be lost.
Hold the 2 Softkeys and reset your device with stylus. follow the instructions and on your device and do a hard reset.
Hard Reset doesn't work
Dear BSBOYS
Hard reset does not work. still problem exists.
so, in this case you should provide detailed information about your device including IPL, SPL, your rom details .....
BTW, have you read the WIKI???
Thanks bsboys, It worked! Thanks a lot!!
Hi all,
I have a Hermes here (MDA version from Tmobile UK)
We know the customer has quite literally "fingered" the unit in all ways possible
At the time, he "claimed" to be a windows mobile developer who invented WM5 - dare I say more?
OK so the Hermes is doing the following:
Stuck on Bootloader screen
Herm300
IPL-1.04
Herm300
SPL-2.03
When I do a hard reset via the two soft keys and reset button, the phone boots up with the t-mobile splash with Test Only Not For Sale
Carries on booting, goes through the whole setting up procedure
Then on the reboot, it goes back to bootloader
Now Once I managed to reset and it simply booted in with me using the phone perfectly
The second time I reset, the phone went into a white screen but you could tell it was booting up.
I'm now back in bootloader which refuses to go any further.
Tried running Hard-SPL on it but it can't seem to detect the unit despite it going from Serial to USB
Appreciate any help
On PC (if u use XP), untick "Allow USB Connections" in activesync settings. Put Hermes into bootloader and connect to pc.
Install Hard SPL. Hermes WILL be detected by the Installation program.
Then try installing a new OS, now you should have Hard SPL I'd use the sd card method.
1. Format 2Gb or less sd card FAT32.
2. Copy .nbh file of the rom you want to it and rename to hermimg.nbh.
3 Insert into Hermes and reset to bootloader, follow the instructions....
Should install a new OS and get rid of that "testing only" message.
Cheers...
I follow to your guy , so my device flash :
IPL - Ok
Bootloader - ok
GSM -
It hand on there.
Can you held me now.
My device 's Softbank X01HT, I reflash original ROM (Japanese language)
