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.

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
Please Help Meee!!
Hello i was wondering if anybody could help me.

Thank Youu!!

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

Hello.
I have a problem I hope someone here can help me to solve..
I have an Orange SPV M3100 that hangs on the Windows Mobile screen when I try to start it.
I'm able to go into bootloader mode, and i have tried using mtty142.exe with the set 14 0 command. It still won't boot. I've also tried to hard reset it.. still won't boot..
What I did was trying to unluck the SIM-lock with the Universal unlocker (HTC_Uni_Unlock_v1) from buzz. At the time I thought universal meant that it worked on all HTC devices (stupid, I know)... And I also thought it was harmless to just try and see if it worked. But I got an error around 92-93% and after that my device won't start. So my radio ROM might be screwed.
I'd like to flash my ROM with the i-mate one (JASJAM_WWE_1.20.305.3_1.20.305.104_1.07.03.10_ship.exe) and then add the ext-rom. But how do I do that when I can just access the bootloader screen? And do you think it will boot again if I'm able to flash it?
Here's some more info about my device:
HERM100
IPL-1.01
SPL-1.04
Thank you very much in advance. Help will be highly appreciated.
No your rom *is* screwed. You can get into bootloader, you can even get to 11% of a dopod etc rom upgrade if you try, but you will not flash a new radio.
You CAN boot the device.
Do a hard reset, but do not press spacebar to reboot after. Instead, do a soft reset. The unit should boot but as you've screwed the radio you will not get a gsm signal and the phone will say unknown sim status.
I know this as I bought one cheap after the owner had done exactly the same as you.
IMEI-check's unlock solution is the only one that works IIRC, and in some cases this re-writes the security area of the phone and repairs similar issues, but in this case I could not get the prog to read.
You need to return the device to HTC - you'll need to pay approx £35 for reflashing back to the orange rom. This is what I had to do.
Currently you cannot book the m3100 in through the web as it's too new, instead email / call them.

edit - or if you're an orange customer ring 150 and act dumb saying it ' won't work'.... :wink:

What happens if you just leave the phone in bootloader mode and then try to flash any ROM (imate, dopod, htc...)? run 2 times the RomUpgradeUt.exe if you get an error on the 1st try.
If you get an error while running the rom upgrade utility you can monitor the USB port while upgrading (you will see the real error from the bootloader then), there's some more info on this wiki page:

No, if you want to send it back under warranty do not try to run a rom update as there are no orange rom packages. As described in my post above, it will get to 11% and stop. The device will be in the same state as before, with the same ext rom, but the splash screen and bootloader will have changed.
i.e: it will be bloomin obvious you tried flashing it and failed. Not what you want if you try for a warranty repair....
There is no error from the bootloader - as there is no radio rom present and no security area the upgrade process just hangs.

That's true, do not try to flash any other roms if you want to use the warranty or send the device back...
Thank you very very much for your help guys.
As I'm the administrator of these devices in the company I work for I just grabbed a new SPV and will send this thing back to Orange. It sounded like I'm getting a new one..
Well, I think I've learnt my lession.
Oh, and I have another question. Is there a reg editor I can install on this one so I can remove the app lock? I know I can install java apps, but it's a bit grumpy about apps that needs installation (the developer must be certificated).
Cheers guys.
Hi,
Try to flash a new rom using the SD card method described here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=62596
The rom must match your CID. Let us know if it works

Sorry to take the thread a bit OT, but just wanted to confirm this again.
So, if I flashed my M3100 with a different ROM, and then had to return the phone to Orange for repair for a different reason, I can send it back to HTC just to have the ROM reflashed, and then send the phone to Orange to get the repairs done?
I've been hesitating on whether to flash the phone with a non-Orange ROM because I didn't want to give up the ability to obtain warranty repair (as there is no ROM upgrade yet). If it's just a matter of £35 and then everything else as normal, maybe it's not so bad...
Thanks!

I think that the method is right but I need to use a different software. what do you think about?

SD card method is no good as there is no upgrade from Orange until January.
Tried to do a radio upgrade explained here:

But it didn't work just came up with connection error, tried to monitor USB but nothing showed up to find out why, althouth mtty commands always do show up in USB Monitor.

HI,
I have been stupid and once getting my MDA Vario II in the post I ran a sim unlocker from www.buzzdev.com been impatient I ran this through and it crashed at 90%. I then read further that this unlock was not actually for this phone. ( i know I'm and idiot, still kicking myself about this)
Anyway the phone now hangs on the windows mobile splash screen. I've tried getting the sim unlocker from www.imei-checker.co.uk but when entering the stage of pressing the (ok, power, and soft reset) button I can't get the usb signal to come up at the bottom of the tri colour screen to enable me to run the app.
Can anyone give me some pointers to get me out of the stupid mess I've got myself into. I'm sucessfully running the I-mate K-JAM ROM on the MDA Vario and have just upgraded to the VARIO II but have stuffed things up big time.
Help Please
You used the HTC Universal unlocker and the radio part of your device is trahsed.
See the bottom of this page:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_UpgradeProblems
You can still boot the device, but GSM will not work because radio is broken.
In order to fix it, try using the "flash from microSD card" method, described in this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=62596
Which CID does the Vario II have? You should use a NBH with the same CID, but t-mob hasn't released any updates yet... so, try using the TyTN rom, the CID is "QTEK_001" and let me know if it works, otherwise you'll have to wait for a NBH with your CID.
Read this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=362230#362230
HTC ended up replacing my device as even they couldn't get it to flash over JTAG after someone else had run the 'universal' bootloader.....
To start the device, do a hard reset then soft reset rather than press spacebar to reboot afterwards.
EDIT - I've had trouble with ime-check's unlokcer as well, with a working m3100 - try a different P.C to run it on.

I bought the m600 two weeks ago and read about the unlocking in the Wiki. I folowed the steps but it seems that after executing lokiwizMSL.bat and pressing enter to start it lokiwiz can't find my mobile phone, it says: cant find path. While it was connected with activesync. after this it says its unlocked, but i cant find the code anywhere
Does anybody knows what I could have done wrong?
I really need to Sim unlock the phone because it can't read my other non-orange Simcard
thanks in advance!
hi again.
I tried to unlock the Prophet again, for some times. I Copied the cab's from the Utils folder in the Lokiwiz03a.zip file to my Prophet and executed them.
(The two files : "Cert_SPCS.cab" and "EnableRapi.cab")
But I keep receiving the message ".....kan opgegeven pad niet vinden" (cant find path)
Please help me
What is the path that the Lokmiwiz is searching for, and why doesnt it sees that I'm connected via ActiveSync, which I was?
thanks in advance!
That's the problem about G4 devices! It seems that HTC has changed the path for unlocking so we have to wait for a new unlocking solution for our G4 devices!
I have to wait too!

Unlocking my SPV M600 from Orange
Hi. I'm from Argentina and travel a lot because I guide motorcycle tours in South America. I use different cell phones all over south america.
I mainly use my SP in Argentina (CTI Movil)
My girlfriend bought me (yes you can say I'm a lucky guy ) this beautiful M600 in France with Mobicart. I tried to unlocked it usind the lokiwizMSL 0.3 but did not work. The message was that the path was not found.
I installed the cabs in the PDA and this erased the picture in the desktop.
After that I ran again de lokiwiz, and had the same answer. The path is not found and did not deliver the precious code. The PDA was connected at all times. It also says that ECHO is disconnected. I have no idea what ECHO is (sorry )
Do we still have to wait for a new version of the loki software? Is there any other way? Can you help this southern beginner?????
I can say that my SPV is a G4, bought last Dec.
Hey, this is a great place and I kinda like the community.
Saludos!!
SPV M600-G4 Desimlock Ok
Hi guys,
I've just unlocked my M600 ORANGE.
I used lokiwizMSL 0.3 on my desktop PC (ACTIVESYNC V 4.5)... That does not worked... I used lokiwizMSL 0.3 in my notebook (ACTIVESYNC V4.2) and It woked very well : I've got the precious number !
Know I put my SFR sim into it... That's OK
So... If your PC says "path is not found" try to unlock your M600 into an other PC !!!

G4 unlock with Lokiwiz: Activesync 4.2
I have Prophet G4 and unlocked with the Lokiwiz software (I don't know which version anymore, I unlocked ± 1 year ago).
I used Activesync 4.2, definitely not 4.5
Good chance that M$ added (bij accident of course) a minor surprise in their latest Activesync version.
4.2 can be downloaded on several places, f.i. here

More problems with my SPV M600
Someone has given me a PDA (SPV M600 or Qtek S200) but he tried to upgrade it to wm6. Unfortunately he doesn't know everything about it because this PDA is 4G and he tried the sequence as the PDA was 3G.
The thing is, in the middle of the process the machine starts to run but it is blocked and the screen shows:
Orange:
IPL 2.21.0001
SPL 2.21.0001
GSM 0.2.19.21
OS 1.0.13.21
After do a hard reset the message is always the same. I can't do anything!!
What could I do?
Thanks
lokiwiz03a worked for me Now I can use any SIM...
If anyone is interested, I used activesync 4.1, the disk came with my SPV.
Hi
I tried to upgrade the software to add Blackberry connect.

I dont appear to be able to do anything now the screen is red, green, blue and white stripes now showing USB at the bottom.
Is there anyway I can get this sorted?

Hi,
i assume you tried a rom upgrade (to WM6). In that case, just try again, seems like your mobile lost the connection. I had the same problem while upgrading, so i just started the upgrade again from my pc and it worked.
Hope this helps,
tsfnet
I cant do anything on the phone. I am just getting the screen as described above.
The screen you describe is the bootloader screen. From there you can re-install windows mobile. Read through the threads in the Athena mobile 6 sub-forum for advice on how to do this, if you have never done it before.
If your Athena is not sim AND cid unlocked, you will need to find a copy of the original rom for your phone - available on this forum.
If you have already cid unlocked it, stick one of the Athena project roms onto it.
Hello all,
I Eb'd an HTC wizard (cingular 8125) running Wizard Love/NBD WM 6.
On the load screen I get:
AKU 2.3;
IPL and SPL:2.25.0001;
radio:2.25.11;
rom: 6.0.0.0.
My carrier is Tmobile.
Question 1: If my phone has this newer ROM and it takes calls on the Tmobile network it has been CID unlocked and SIM unlocked...right?
I wanna update my rom and think that I am competent enough to do so but there is alot to learn and this is not my full time gig...right.
Question 2: So, if I am correct in Q1 I should be able to flash roms right?
However when I attempt to do so the RUU gives me [error 224]. Active sync and or WMDC says its connected. (I installed the AS drivers in WMDC)
Question 3: Where do I go from here?
Question 4: The wi-fi is currently not working will a new rom potentially clear this up?
Thanks in advance for the time and advice..
grazie
hmmmm,
Well,did you updated to NBD wm6 yourself ? and how did you updated ? which method you adopted ? SoftSPL or HardSPL ?
You say its SIM unlocked as it takes calls on the Tmobile network .Did you SIM unlocked with lokiwiz03a ?
yes ! a G4 can be SIM unlocked but it can not be CID unlocked,however,it can be upgraded to wm6 rom,but with method either 'SoftSPL' or 'HardSPL'.With your present ipl/spl 2.25.0001 and you say its NBD wm6 running,then it must have been upgraded through 'SoftSPL' method,as it uses patched ipl/spl and Cid unlocks the phone temporarily,but it never permanently CID unlocks the phone.But with 'HardSPL' ,it changes the ipl/spl to a patched ipl 2.21.0001 and spl 2.21 olip.So everytime you want to upgrade,you'll have to upgrade using 'SoftSPL' method.
could you elaborate a little more about this.
Cheers!
Hey thanks for the correspondence zabardast_1, I have been getting frustrated and I have many times contemplated going for the brick or bust approach here.
So, I have done none of the updating on this rig. I rec'd it and I wanted it primarily for wifi however I can't get the wifi card/ (sdiowlan I believe) to even recognize an AP (... I posted in the networking forum but no response.) Thus my own reasoning leads me to believe I should start from scratch with a new rom unless you know of something else.
So, I am not the most savvy and thought that all of the info I had led to SIM and CID unlocked. I just read otherwise last night and in your reply. The info I have provided is accurate the IPL, SPL, radio, although I don't know which NBD release it is; just says 6.0.0.0 and release date: 2/2/07.
I am trying to get the new rom on the my device however and I would've probably already bricked it if I could get an RUU to communicate with my wiz. I always get [Error 224] when I run it and my phone is connected through active sync. I am running vista but have installed the AS drivers for WMDC. I also tried it at work the other day with XP same situ. I then tried flashing from the bootloader screen with an NBD, Wizard Love ( w/ Italian installer?), and T-mob (226102_22610105_022511). The only one that says it will update is the Tmob ROM, however I got cold feet at the update button and canceled.
Other funny stuff I have observed that may or may not be related to the problems I am having are:
Can't install cab files ie (enable rapi or Cert SPCS) and Wiz Sys Tools couldn't read my CID block and hard_SPL G4 gives me REXX error ( SPL_Version has no value).
So, any wizdom you or anybody can drop is much appreciated and needed at this point.
Whew...
Listen carefully. G4 Wizard cannot be CID-unlocked without paying money. (And yes, you are using a G4).
What you need now is to Flash your original stock carrier ROM (Or wizard love) to get your OS back. Then either use SoftSPL or install HardSPL and flash WM6 ROM.
Thanks Starkwong,
I will try installing wizard love tomorrow at work and if that don't work I will attempt a Cing ROM (will all of these work or do I need to mind my G3's and G4's for these???)
Grazie
So, It worked using Wizard Love at work and out of the bootloader window. Now I need to:
1.) Get wifi working.
2.) Get a newer ROM
I put a post up in the networking thread, I am a tool so far as these devices are concerned so be easy on me.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=372811
So do I get the wifi issue resolved before I reflash???
Thx again
I don't know what you mean by "wifi not working".
Maybe it is the wifi AP doesn't allow 11Mbps (802.11b) connections?
However, going to any of the WM6 ROMs should already set the registry to allow Wizard connects to G-Only APs. Just use HardSPL/SoftSPL and flash a WM6 and you will see.
OK so "wifi not working" may indeed be a general statement...
What I mean to say is that I am not able to connect to any wireless networks for internet not home (Linksys WRT 54G v5 with ddwrt firmware) or school (university wide) or my city's wifi network. It won't even detect them at least none that Ive seen since I've rec'd this phone. So, that is what I meant by the ambiguous statement.
So, being as your last post was a success I will try as you say and post the results tomorrow. Thanks again starkwong!!!
1 quick thing however, to be sure, I can now try the hard spl or soft spl method of tricking my phone to run an upgrade to WM6?
Still not able to get wifi APs????
OK although I have been successful at reinstalling the Mfg ROM and then Hard SPL'ing my wizard thanks to ya'll I still am unable to connect to a wireless network (see one even). I have the Olip on my SPL and I installed a TNT version of WM6 and I am still at work (drunk but still here). Anyway I can't see my wireless AP and I am beginning to think its a hardware issue if thats possible, i dunno the dynamics of this system maybe thats why it was for sale. In any event as usual I am willing to try what ever you guys throw at me as you're my only hope obi wan. Alright Im gonna go home for the night and try getting on to my home network.
Thanks again for all the help guys.
Is your device a original one from phone operator? I suspect your device is a China Dopod 838 with replaced casing, because the China version has the wifi hardware removed, so wifi can't be started even if an English ROM is used.
Looks to be authentic 8125
Starkwong, the Cingular logo and the 8125 model # are on the phone case where they have been when I've seen them before in pics. Therfore, I dunno I guess it looks like every other 8125 I've seen. Can I check the SN, IME or anything to be sure?
Thanks Again!!!
Starkwong,
I am getting all the options for wifi on my phone the LHS LED flashes green when I enable it and alternates blue green when BT is enabled. So, could it still be that its a dupod? I dunno but I am going home for the night... Thanks for your help. I will try connecting to my home network when I get there.
