Device still locked? - G4

Hi,
went to imei-check.co.uk and got my CID unlock key. IPL & SPL are still showing X.XX.0001
Is the device unlocked, or not?
Ghostzapper

My G4 Wiz still displays the versions as you show, and it's unlocked.
I guess my answer is: I dunno.

the xx.0001 is not an indication of CID locked or not. It is an indication of the version (i.e. G3 or G4) your Wizard is. There is no easy way to check your CID status, other than flashing it. However, from what I can see so far, it doesn't seems to be beneficial to flash it all (i.e. CID-unlock) when ShellTool can do a very good job in a CIDlocked Wizard.

Thx @ all
Will see into this.
I unlocked the phone and tried to install NBD 9. Update process stuck at 52%. Managed to reflash original Vodafone ROM. Have restored my Data via SPB Backup and will try again after trying the Wizard Support Tool.
Gonna keep you informed
Ghostzapper

The "CID actions" includes a report on the CID lock status .. good luck!

There is an easy way to check if the device is CID unlocked:
Kill active sync (taskmanager kill wcescomm.exe)
Start wizard in bootloader (reset and hold voicedail butten untill red/green/blue window)
Open mtty.exe
select connection \\.\WCEUSBSH001 and press ok
in the new window type:
set 32 2
and press enter.
then the following will appear:
Code:
Cmd>set 32 2
+ SD Controller init
- SD Controller init
+StorageInit
***** user area size = 0x3C8C0000 Bytes
g_cKeyCardSecurityLevel = 0
HTCE
Cmd>
The g_cKeyCardSecurityLevel is the key!
if it is set 0 then the device is CID unlocked, else its locked.

The Tool tells me, that the device is CID unlocked although it fails to recognize the model as a wizard.
Since i have already installed the ShellTool Version of NBD 9, i will not bother going further into detail unless someone gives me a good reason to flash another rom. Ist there?

Please help me! I screwed my MDA Vario II.

Please help me!
I screwed my MDA Vario II. I used HTC universal sim unlocker and I haven’t got radio. I know I was a craze.
No GSM, no cid and no imei. The pda is working good.
I vas very happy when I find this site :

The radio doesn’t work , no GSM, no cid and no imei. The pda is working good.
Please help me
Please can a expert check this!?
I found this with the search option.... can someone check this....
Its written for the Tytn and not for the Vario II, i'm not sure but i thought that the english Vario II has a 1.06 bootloader!! Then you are stuck, beacause the file who degrade your bootloader to 1.04 isnt availleble anymore. Maybe one of the guys here can share it with you?!
======================================================
- Take the battery out of your TyTN and leave it out several minutes
- Disable USB-connection in Active-Sync
- Reboot your Computer
- Replace the battery and put your TyTN in the bootloader
- Try to load the ROM found here:
ftp://xda:[email protected]/RUU120_172125_Qtek_WWE_R11400_Shipping.exe
- Keep trying till you get just past the erasing part, then you will get an error-message and are asked to reset your device with the stylus
- Reset your phone and put it back in the bootloader mode
- Install any Hermes ROM you like, no matter what CID if you have bootloader 1.04

Can you attach a USB monitor capture of what happens when you try to:
a) flash a rom
b) flash a radio rom
Do both things starting from bootloader and with activesync disabled.

Just seen your capture but it's not good.. you made a "basic" capture which shows nothing important, please repeat the process again, but this time read point 6:
In the upper part there are two tabs: basic and complete. Click on "Complete".​
I cannot help unless I have a complete capture to see the problem.

@lacika:
When checking the seclevel (task 32 bootloader command) your phone replies:
Code:
CID: Wait interpreter timeout.
Level=FF
After that when checking the CID with 'info 2' your phone replies:
Code:
HTCS...?\0.?f..|HTCE
This should be something like T-MOB001 if you have a Vario II from UK, so the CID is screwed.
I can see from the output of 'info 3' that you're running bootloader 1.06.
Then you try to flash the 1.18.255.3 ROM from HTC, which has CID "QTEK_001", you won't be able to flash this image in your device with bootloader 1.06, even if the CID was not screwed you will always get an error (you need bootloader 1.04 to bypass CID checking, and you are in 1.06), the error you're getting from bootloader is:
Code:
CID not allow (255)
As you said you can use the PDA (WinCE boots) what I suggest is buying imei-check unlocker (you need activesync working too for running the imei-check unlocker), because it will downgrade your bootloader to 1.04 and patch your radio... probably it can fix your device, at least it will downgrade your bootloader to 1.04. If after running the unlocker your device doesn't work I suggest that you try to flash a radio ROM, you can find them here:

Err... I forgot that your IMEI is also screewed, probably imei-check unlocker will not work on your Hermes even if you provide them the right IMEI, because it will not be able to read the IMEI from your phone (will get the wait interpreter timeout too...). anyway... it costs 20GBP, give it a try!

I’ve got one question. I use imei-check unlocker after I’ll got 1.04 bootloader?
Lacika
I tried that with my device before it got sent to service, I brought imei-check unlocker but as my imei was also corrupt it will not work, so I would not waste GDP 20 if you have corrupt imei.
They will not refund either becuase its your problem the imei is corrupt.

No, imei-check unlocker will downgrade your bootloader, BUT as shark1 says, it will not work because your IMEI is corrupted and it will not be able to read it.
I guess the best would be to send the unit to the repair centre then...

You can't, and your imei is screwed, the unlocker can't check it... so you should better send the unit to the repair centre as suggested.

Please help!!! Upgrade failed and become unusable.

Dear All,
I've tried to upgrade to ROM Hermes_1.18.416.1_1.18.416.101_1.14.00.10_WWE_Ship
and unluckly cable loosen and I reset the phone.
Since it's in the middle and can't success enter the Windows Mobile,
but the bootloader was updated to 1.06.
Now I can't flash any ROM either
HER_DopodAsia_1237074_1060010_WWE_SHIP or the new one.
The tools on "imei check" even can't recognize my phone.
Any one can help me on this issue, please?
Thanks in advance.
Try the steps here, let us know the results:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_UpgradeProblems
If you don't fix it with the proposed solutions attach USB Monitor capture in text format as explained in the bootom of the page.
I have the same issue, and sent it to service, and now I have the phone back and they could not fix it, so got no radio or imei number, so none of the FAQ will work for me.
So I have an expensive paper weight.
Hi,
ME TOO!!
I recently had a power cut (yes, a lights off power cut!) that killed my PC half wat through installing the Cingular English CWS__001 1.34.502.1 09/21/06 ?? 1.16.00.00 32.53.7018.01H 14955.2.3.0 ROM onto my SPV 3100.
Now SPV 3100 will boot to the ROM I was running prior to the upgrade but I can't use the telephone. I'm also not able to rerun the upgrade as it got far enough through the process to upgrade my bootloader to 1.06 - therefor rendering me unable to load another ROM.
Before the crash I was using the Imate ROM as below and M3100 was sim unlocked and running on o2 3G
i-mate English CDL__001 1.20.305.3 07/21/06 1.20.305.104 1.07.03.10 32.41.7010.02H 14955.2.3.0 1.04
I have also tried imei without any joy.
the PDA part of my M3100 still works but the phone is dead. I have been told that if you can get the latest radio installed then you satnd a chance of the phone part working.
We need a hack to get bootloader 1.4 back on the phones.
Please help.
Thanks
My one now is a photo frame which one show "HTC" or "Windows Mobile",
at least your one is a PDA.
There are nothing in "info 2" and so nothing can be flash into it.
Is it possible to have something written CID and IMEI to phone in mtty
and let the flash rom success?
i am in the same situation like yhlee. Pof, i have reply your pm and ready to upload the result file to FTP. where should i upload to?
Thanks
oh i forgot to say, mine is even worst. as soon as i turn on the unit. it will go right into bootloader without press any button.
The USB Log is too large (around 2MB)
and can't upload, any suggestion?
Thanks.

This can be fixed by bootloader commands 'set 14 0' and 'task 8', will reboot your device and boot into OS again (but no GSM yet!)

Thanks
'set 14 0' and 'task 8' didn't work
@rnc1688: It starts the flashing process, but you get a "CID not allow (255)" error because your CID is corrupted and you are in bootloader 1.06.
Is not booting WM5 after "set 14 0" in mtty.exe? If it's not booting WM5 you'll not be able to flash bootloader 1.04 and bypass CID checking.
so i guess my unit is bricked now.
I've upload the file which named yhlee.txt.
However, I'm going to send the unit for service.
Hope they can fix.
Any way to make it show the bootloader screen on start-up
everytime?
"set 14 1" doesn't work after push the RESET button.
Thanks.
@yhlee: U're getting exactly the same error as rnc1688. Device in bootloader 1.06 which has corrupted CID, however you say you can go into OS, so it would be possible for you to downgrade the bootloader so it does not enforce CID checking.

Try "set 1e 1" and then "set 14 1", you'll boot stright into bootloader.
@rnc1688: If you want to go WM5 try this:
"set 1e 1" and then "set 14 0", you should be able to boot stright into OS.
no luck either
grrr!!!... command "set 14 [0|1]" is working fine in 1.04 here to switch boot into WM5 or boot in bootloader mode... probably different in 1.06??? I don't have a 1.06 now to test
Mine one is just showing "Windows Mobile" but stuck there,
but seems rnc1688 one is a PDA but my one is nothing.
I've sent to distributor for service.
Thanks you pof.

Let me know when they fix it... i'm curious about if they will fix it with 1.06 or they will downgrade to 1.04 first.
I got a correct message back from the service company, and they will not fix a bootloader 1.06 unless the original rom has been release with it, I was told that is HTC policy on this.

HOW TO SIM-Unlock SoftBank X01ht post April (white versions) with radio 1.14.01.10

Here's how to unlock the new batch of SoftBank X01HT devices with radio 1.14.01.10.
This process is ONLY valid for new devices which have never turned on or let the SoftBank Extended ROM install.
If you have already let the ExtROM install you CAN'T sim-unlock it.
In \Extended_ROM there's a file named update_h182.exe, this is what updates the radio bootloader to 0182, and what is preventing to flash the patched radio to SIM-Unlock.
The log file of the Radio bootloader upgrade can be found in \windows\udp.log, if you have already let the ExtROM run it looks like this:
Code:
01:07:29 [msg] : Start. Version : v2.80
01:07:29 [msg] : QCT Retry Process Loop, Retry Times=0.
01:07:29 [msg] : QCT CreateFile (MSM1:) OK, Handle=278e43a.
01:07:29 [msg] : CreateEvent (RxDataFromQCT) OK, Handle=0xc278e2a2.
01:07:29 [msg] : QCT DeviceIoControl (IOCTL_QCT_REGISTER_EVENT) OK.
01:07:29 [msg] : CreateThread (Read QCT Data) OK, Handle=2278e5a2.
01:07:29 [msg] : CeSetThreadPriority (130) OK, bRet=1, Error Code=0
01:07:29 [msg] : QCT dload OK
01:07:29 [msg] : rget=4
01:07:29 [msg] : do rversion........
01:07:29 [msg] : rget=4
01:07:29 [msg] : got rversion=82
01:07:29 [err] : Do not need to update Boot image.
01:07:29 [msg] : CloseThread (Read QCT Data), Handle=2278e5a2, Result=1.
Here's how to SIM-Unlock:
Take a NEW unit, one where you have _NEVER_ powered it on and let the ExtROM install.
Power it on for the first time, and softreset when it asks you to wait 3 seconds, don't let the ExtROM install (this is the most important!)
Run Hermes_Unlocker v3a, radio 1.16 should be flashed
After the radio flash, run Herm_Unlock_v3a.exe on your phone and select SIM unlock only, wait for success message.
Once unlocked, flash the attached file SoftBank_1.33.761.4_ExtROM, this contains the default SoftBank ExtROM except the file "update_h182.exe", so the radio bootloader will never be upgraded to 0182, and you can safely hard reset and let the ExtROM install.
For people who already let the ExtROM install and have already the 0182 radio bootloader, please wait until we find a solution to flash radio, at the moment there's nothing you can do
pof, you roxx!
I'm getting my unit tomorrow, but I don't think the staff will let me do that because over here, they need to initialize the USIM card by using it on the new phone and dial a particular number...
Any idea?
um...I think it is too difficult to got a phone which never turned on....

well, good effort anyway pof. all your hard work is appreciated. hope it will help some fortunate few who don't try testing their phone beforehand at the softbank store. hope the 0182 generation don't get completely left out in the cold. it's lonely being all sim-locked up in here.
btw, still no way to actually check the radio bootloader myself, right?

Sorry, I am a newbie....
I dont understand what mean by this sentence
When you power on the device for the first time, you have to align screen, copy-paste appointment, etc... after that a message says "device customization will begin in 3 seconds":
- If you wait 3 seconds and let the process run, then you will not be able to sim-unlock.
- If you soft reset with stylus and don't let the process run, you will be able to sim-unlock.

how can I check the phone is ExtROM or not?
Hi Pof, phone unlocked ok. Ran the ExtRom Patch, and could not see the Ext_ROM folder, tried also Hermes_MountExtromV2 and V3. No luck. Any ideas?
Best, Gus
Yes, the ExtROM patcher only works for WM6... for WM5 you need a different dll (read through the thread, if I recall correctly Olipro posted it there). Other option is to reflash the ExtROM with another one not containing the dangerous file.

- Ater the message says "device customization will begin in 3 seconds", I will use the stylus to soft reset it, it will continue booting and ignore the update processing ExtRom or It will reboot the system and ignore the update process?
- If I successfully for ignore the update process, the phone still working normally at that time, I mean can be called, received, mail, ... ? Because I'm afraid the SB staff need to activate the SIM in x01ht phone?

CID unlock from bootloader ?

Hi,
First many thanks to all people here at the forum who makes the day better and more interesting for mobile nerds like me. I have been lurking around here for a long time and enjoyed every minute of it.
My problem :
Since my x7500 is SIM unlocked and with a standard setup as far as I can see I tried the HTC VM6 Rom flash without CID unlock.
That was stupid. Very stupid, since I don't have the providers orginal ROM available.
My x7500 will not accept the HTC VM6 ROM and is stuck in Bootloader with "USB" at the bottom of the screen when connected to my PC. Hard reset does not start the normal "installation"
When I start the VM6 flash program I get the famous "provider error message"
Is there any possibility to unlock the CID in Bootloader or "flashing" the bootloader to use the original ROM image at my device for a re-install ? In that way I could use the X7500 unlocker in VM5 and then flash to VM6 after.
If not re-installing the original ROM or unlocking the CID is possible I guess my x7500 is seriously bricked.
I am sorry if the answer to my problem can be found in other treads here. I have searched and read a lot without any success. I know now that I should have unlocked the device before trying to flash -> can only blame my one stupidity.
I will be very happy for every advice.
Greetings, Eric

Hi,
First many thanks to all people here at the forum who makes the day better and more interesting for mobile nerds like me. I have been lurking around here for a long time and enjoyed every minute of it.
My problem :
Since my x7500 is SIM unlocked and with a standard setup as far as I can see I tried the HTC VM6 Rom flash without CID unlock.
That was stupid. Very stupid, since I don't have the providers orginal ROM available.
My x7500 will not accept the HTC VM6 ROM and is stuck in Bootloader with "USB" at the bottom of the screen when connected to my PC. Hard reset does not start the normal "installation"
When I start the VM6 flash program I get the famous "provider error message"

There were four ROMs posted here some time ago. At least one of them didn't require the unit to be SPL / CID unlocked. Try to get hold of one of those - look in the Athena WM6 forum (where this should have been posted)

Thanks for reply.
I suppose you mean this four Rom's :
http://uploaded.de/?id=j2pv51 - ROM ver 2.20
for use with the athena_upgrade program
http://uploaded.de/?id=0v9mm1 - flasher for SuperCID devices only
works only for supercid devices
http://uploaded.de/?id=430xr4 - HTC__001 - version with spl,ipl and etc
works with CID HTC__001 and SuperCid
http://uploaded.de/?id=wbbw2u - T-MOB005 - version with spl,ipl and etc
works with CID T-MOB005 and SuperCid
As I understand my x7500 is not unlocked/superCid'ed and I need a ROM with exactly the same CID as on my device. Or am I far out ?
Or should I be able to use one of them even if the CID don't match ?
Thanks, Erik

Hi Mackaby, thanks for the answer.
That was the first ROM I tried to flash. Gave me error message "wrong vendor, check your update software"
Now I only get bootloader when I start my device. I have(had) a Norwegian ROM so I guess the CID does not match. I wish I unlocked my device before trying the WM6 ROM but......
Now I am stuck : Cannot boot / install my original ROM or install any.
My hope is that I can either unlock my CID in Bootloader or installing the original ROM again with a hard reset. To bad a hard reset only sends me to bootloader.
try this commands in mtty:
set 14 0
task 8
If it doesn't boot OS after this, you need a rom matching your CID. It's not possible to CID unlock it from bootloader.

Did it. Same result : Bootloader shows up after "task 8"
bootloader says :
athe100
ipl-v1.00
Athe100
SPL-v1.07.0000
red (raster)
green (raster)
blue (raster)
"Serial" when not USB connected, "USB" when connected in white field.
Guess I have to send my device for service since there are no ROM available for my local X7500 That's life

Hi Hdubli,
Thanks for the answer.
Bonus pack ? do you mean the CD that followed my x7500 ? I can check but don't think there are any ROM Flash application on that.
Sorry if I didn't understand your message correct
Greetings, Eric
If u buy bonus pack with athena which includes car kit etc etc, u also get CDs, in which the ROM is also there..so I was asking if u can get hold of the dealer from whom u hv got and enquire about it..also in mtty issue info 2 command check what is yr CID

Ok, understand. We don't have anything called Bonuspack here with hardware stuff and ROM software.
This was the output from the mtty command :
Cmd>info 2
HTCSHTC__H10 ÅPýHTCE
Cmd>info 3
HTCSATHE100001.07.0000 ßؽôHTCE
Anything special with this ?
Anyone who knows if it is possible to mod a ROM flash file so that this CID will be accepted during install ?

That would corrupt the signatures, and it won't flash with an unmodified bootloader.

Thanks EricBr or anyone who can help me,
I have a similar problem, but in my case I didn't do anything to deserve it... I just turned off my new and provider unlocked x7500 after playing with it all day (just installed skype for mobile and customized some settings, tried the programs, etc.), and when I tried to turn it on again, it just froze in the bootloader screen... Nothing works, I tried soft and hard resets, don't know what else to do?
I've been reading al your posts everywhere and tried a few things without succes, when I conect my x7500 to my pc, it doesn't connect to activesync or anything. I guess I would do better if there would be someone who can create a reply that would clearly guide me on what to do and what files (with links) to download. I simply don't know what happened! since I didn't do anything especial to deserve this from my x7500 which I was falling in love with, after only a few hours of just getting to know it.
I'm new to xda's so please lay it down easy on me... Already had removed the sim and the miniSD I had installed on it... still nothing happens.

G4 CID locked issue

One thing I am confused is that How do I know that whether my G4 is CID locked or not?
1>e.g. I asked this because say I bought the G4 from another seller 2nd hand. I don't know whether he has Cid unlocked or not
2>e.g. I just used the aWizzard tool to upgraded my G4 from wm5 to wm6. During the process there was one phase --- CID unlocking, after which it told me that my deviced had been successfully CID unlocked. Does that mean that I have a CID unlocked G4 for ever?
3>If I have a CID unlocked Wizzard whatever G3 or G4, does this mean that I will be very safe to flash any rom to my device, if we don't consider the bricking thing made by human or operation errors?
Nobody ever has this kind of questions ????????????????????
I am confused !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just use mtty1.42 and launch "info 2"
if it appears like this
info 2
GetDeviceInfo=0x00000002
+ SD Controller init
- SD Controller init
+StorageInit
***** user area size = 0x79280000 Bytes
HTCSSuperCID ' HTCE
Cmd>

It is unlocked
Best regards
How to launch info 2??
I have mtty1.42.exe, i run it and then i get setting open port settings. click Ok.
And then what??
don't know where to download.
have mtty 1.0
Choose USB, doesn't connect to my phone
Launch MTTY1.42
Choose the USB connection
Then, in the open windows, you have only to write
info 2
and enter
wait for the reply
and have a look to see if your wizard is CIDlocked or not

Thanks mate. I will have try after 3 hours when I get back home.
Do I need to turn off the ActiveSync when using the Mtty?
Btw, I can only find MTTY1.0 in XDA-Developers. Is it possible for
you to upload a 4.2 and attach it here.
Cheers.
