Hi fellow experts,
Is it possible to dump the ROM via the rom dump procedure on a locked CID G4 device?
I had a CID locked G4 818 Pro and would love to backup the ROM before taking the dive into the WM6 upgrade.
I wonder if by doing hard SPL flash does this allow me to backup the current WM5 rom?
I believe there are some WM5 ROM backups on the ftp site...

Don't flash T-Mobile 2.26 on a G4.... It contains IPL/SPL and will brick your device!
thank u
thanks for your valuable information my friend.so people are giving me wrong advice.what should i do? how can i get right rom and latest ipl/spl for my imate kjam to make my system clean?maybe from xxx.clubimate.com ?thanks your help my friend.thank u
You should read allot before flashing your device, make sure you know what your doing when flashing the first time. You cannot touch/upgrade IPL/SPL on a G4, but it isn't necessary! You can still flash new roms into it. Start here:

You also tell your G4 is CID-unlocked. Have you payed for it at imei-check? If not.... it's still CID-locked! There's a difference between SIM and CID-lock.
g4 kjam and cid unlock
yes.i paid to imeicheck.co.uk.i am sure my kjam all ready cid unlock.because this is not first to flash my kjam.i flashed before.(orginal kjam rom to faria 3.3 than to wm6 mb edition than to faria wm6 realthing than to x-plore 1.1 and now i am using faria wm5 3.3 4mb page pool)...now i am not sure how clean my kjam is?if ipl/spl update is not necassarly which you sais it's ok no problem.but i have some problem with my phone,i tried almost all task managers,i couldn't get good performance.i am having freezing problem.memory leaking problem etc...i thought maybe i must flash my phone some offical phone,but u said u cant use t.mobile or other...imate offical rom is very old version and useless and too slow..now i dont know what must i do?what should i do?thanks your help my friend.
I see! It is possible to got back to an official rom by recooking the rom without IPL/SPL. Here is explained how to do this:

thank you
I have cid unlocked my g4 mda and been able to flash quite a few roms just wondering if any of the roms will have conflicts with my device unlocked via imei-check please help me with this read step by step instruction on core kitchen pro and said not to use with g4 unless using shelltool.
There's no problem to flash roms (on a CID-unlocked G4) made with core kitchen as long as there's no IPL/SPL in it. I think the remark was made for G4 CID-locked phones!
Through research of different posts I have determined that I have a CID unlocked G4 model. I have a Qtek 9100 with MW 5:
Ipl 2.17.0001
Spl 2.17.0001
Gsm 02.07.10
Os 2.17.7.2
I was hoping to find an easy way to upgrade to WM6 and install the new touch applications. Does any one have any suggestions on which WM6 rom to install. Everything on my wizard is original programming except I have added PHM registry editor.
Your help is much apprectiated
There is no easy way... Are you sure your G4 is CID Unlocked? ALL G4 are locked in factory and the only way to unlock them is via imei-check website. You can use ShellTool to flash any WM6 here in the forum (I recommend NBD 7.4 for the touchflo apps).
As soon as you keep a copy of manufacturer RUU for your Wizard, you can flash any ROM you like using shelltool (Unlocking not required, but never using RUU to flash unless it is a manufacturer RUU)

Well i've just updated my G4 CID_locked mob with official T-mobile rom. Now my G4 have IPL/SPL 3.08.001 bootloader. Is it safe to upgrade with safe wm6 rom ? I guess it will be couse it want overwrite bootloader, but just to be sure i want to get confirmation
New t-mobile rom is: RUU_Prodigy_3821_382124_026911_TMO_HR_WWE_Ship
But unfortunatly it is WM5 rom.
i upgrade my g4 wizard to wm6 (TNT 5.0 Rom)
and its work great.
more performance, and more fast
