I need some assistance in UNlocking my 8125. I sent my phone into at&t for repairs, they sent the phone back locked. I am an old ATTWS customer, I have been waiting for one week for my unlock code. I recently purchased an 8525 and SIM/CID Unlocked that phone, but I need assistance with this phone. I have run the lokiwiz03a several times, but it keeps giving me "The system cannot find the path specified" on all the lines of the program. Of course at the end it does not provide an unlock code, It repeats the message.
I think you are not doing it proper,I may be wrong,but most probably you have to copy and paste two cab files 'Cert_SPCS' and 'EnableRapi' in the phone somewhere and execute them in the phone,then after that run 'lokiwizMSL' on your pc.
Cheers!
I loaded both .cab files on the 8125, they both ran succesfully. I have the phone connected to active sync. I am at a loss on this. I have no clue why this is not working. I have flashed numerous ROM's on phones, this one seems to be a pain the in the behind. At&t just returned the phone from repairs, could they have installed something to block this?
hmmm,
really strange though,may be they have put some kinda special code on it.what repairs were carried on it ?
btw,have you tried to sim unlock with WST 4.2 tool,ask mestrini,if it might do the trick.
Cheers!
I ran the WST as you requested. It is telling me that the DOC chip is write protected. When I run the CID Action and Run Super CID it returns that message. When I run SIM unlock it generates all the data from the phone and produces LOCKED in the status. At the bottom of all the data it returns DOC chip is write protected. I may be running this tool wrong, your info is appreciated.
WST simlock tool doesn't work on G4.
Easiest way:
1. Run flight mode.
2. Turn off your Wizard and insert "bad" simcard.
3. Turn on your Wizzard copy Two cabs Cert_SPCS' and 'EnableRapi'
4. Install it on device memory.
5. Turn on phone (in commanager)
6. Run lokiwiz, it should work!
How do I turn on the phone with the wrong SIm in the phone, it keeps going back to the SIM lock page. I am able to turn on the flight mode, but I can not do anything else, it keep srefering back to the SIMlock page.
simlock screen = run lokiwiz and enter generated code. It must work
Everyline on the screen reports "The system cannot find the path specified" I think at&t has protected this from unlocking?
same happens to me
try running lokiwiz from c:\
make sure that two cabs are installed
wizard is an old model I think at&t is taking care over iphone now ;p

Anyone has the free unlocker for the 3125 yet? Can you share it?
This has taken pretty long.
Thanks

You have to pay to get the phone carrier unlocked as there isn't a solution at the moment similar to the one created for the HTC Wizard...
http://www.imei-check.co.uk/f600unlock.php
Application unlocking so you can flash the ROM has been covered a couple of times (see response #2)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=292936
Good luck
you don't have to pay to cid unlock the phone... search this forum, or spv-dev's forum....
it's easy,
but, so you know, the files will be extracted to the folder specified in the cmd window (not necessarily the same folder were the itsmeutils are)
sim unlock is around too, but i don't have another sim to test it with
I have done cid unlock and it works fine. But, the phone is still sim locked.
I unlocked my G3 easy..
Now I read you cant unlock a G4 and some say you can (for free that is)
All I need is a SIM unlock for my G4
Where is the cut to the chase post on Sim unlocking a G4.
Thanks,
Jason
Sorry if this is the elevendybillion post but my head is pounding from the yes no crap lol And this is my only phone
Ok here it is Instructions for SIM Unlocking your Prophet :
1. Download ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Prophet/Prophet-tools/Lokiwiz03a.zip
2. Unzip Lokiwiz03a.zip somewhere on your computer
3. Make sure that your phone is connected via ActiveSync with the computer
4. Execute lokiwizMSL.bat on your computer
If it states: "Could not update itsutils.dll to the current version, maybe it is in use?"
Do the following :
*Copy the cab's from the Utils folder in the Lokiwiz03a.zip file to your Prophet and execute them.
(There are two files : "Cert_SPCS.cab" and "EnableRapi.cab")
*Execute lokiwizMSL.bat on your computer
5. It will give you the SIM unlock code after it runs, write it down somewhere.
6. Just get a different SIM from the one your phone is locked to, and install it in the phone (you have to turn off your phone)
7. Turn on your phone
8. When it asks your pin code enter your normal pin.
9. It then asks you for the Service Provider Unlock Code: Here you insert the SIM unlock code you wrote down in step 5.
10. That's it, enjoy your unlocked Prophet !

You are not following the instructions correctly or missing any step.Perhaps you are not pasting and executing the two files "Cert_SPCS.cab" and "EnableRapi.cab" correctly in your phone.Reread the guide again and do it correctly,ok

Unlock code does not wok
I have a Wizard G4. I have run Lokiwiz3a and it generated an eight digit unlock code. I have entered that code 4 times. It tells me the unlock code is not valid and I that I have tried 4 times. Wait and try again. Any suggestions, please?

Worked like a charm! Thanks a load!
THANKS a LOT
Excellent. Worked superb. Thanks a lot.
Just wanna say Thank You!
Hi!
Thanks for the great instructions, I also tried v2 but failed. ;-)
However due to you instructions it worked fine!
Now I still need to get rid of the branding - but that´s another story!
Anyway, MANY THANKS!!!
Alex.
Thank you
I have an MDA that has seen better days and got a Cingular 8125...I spent 5 hours reading boards about unlocking it...THANK YOU IT WORKED!!!
Hello,
how can I tell if my 8525 is SIM unlocked?
I bought my phone "unlocked", but then used ATT for service. If I end the service, will my phone revert back to being unlocked? And can an unlocked phone use Virgin mobile as a carrier? (I kinda doubt it, but maybe someone has tried it).
Should I use HardSPL 2.10 - Hard-SPL-V7 - FIRST before trying the unlocking tool? (The Free unlocker by pof mentions it comes with HardSPL v1.40)
Thanks, all of y'all are extremely helpful. (and no I'm not being sarcastic)
to see if your phone is indeed unlocked, try to put in sim cards issued by different carriers, if you can make a phone call then your phone is sim unlocked. do the same test with virgin mobile (remember that you need to get a hold of the sim card to put into your phone in order to connect with the cellular network). if a carrier never issues any sim card then it'll be difficult to use your phone with their cellular service.
Also, if you want to unlock, flash hard spl AFTER you unlock as it will downgrade your spl to 1.40. You want 2.10 olipro for safety.With hard spl on yor phone its harder to brick it and easier to fix if something does go wrong. I also use the sd card method of flashing for preference as its harder to pry my phone out of my hand and resetting it with th stylus while I'm trying to kill you.... The pc can be reset, hang, have usb disconnected or have power outage... result : bricked hermes.... Hope this helps....
Thanks for the responses,
I can't use activesync because I always get errors, so I decided to use the SD card method. I want to install HardSPL (the new one) first, so my device won't get messed up, so I researched on how to install HardSPL via SD Card. I found out that that I needed to rename the .nbh file to HERMIMG.nbh, and then I needed to put it into the "root folder". There's just one problem... where is this "root folder" located at?? I searched the net, but I couldn't find an answer. Even if I make it to view hidden files, the only folders I see are :WMDRM and MSMETADATA
And again, .... if I unlock my phone, it will go back to being LOCKED after I choose a carrier correct? In other words, it's not a: once you unlock it, it will ALWAYS be unlocked.... correct?
I ask cuz my phone was supposedly "unlocked" when purchasing, and if it was ALREADY unlocked in the first place, then maybe I won't need to unlock it again.

it's always a good idea to catch up with computer vocabularies, otherwise you'd have more and more challenges following up moving forward.
try again with google, i did try searching for "root folder" and got a bunch of relevant hits explaining what it is and where to find it.

Hello:
I can't unlock my M600 because when I put the unlock code, the screen changes to "Input SIM PIN", but when I put the SIM PIN, the screen go again to input unlock code (is a loop).
This is all steps that I have made:
1) M600 without SIM card inside, connected to ActiveSync. I execute Lokiwiz03a without problems, all ok, and I get my 8 digits unlock code.
2) Power off M600 and I put a SIM card of other company.
3) Power on M600 and I get: "Input your PIN code..."
4) I put the SIM code and after 4 seconds the screen changes to "Network Locked. Please input the unlock code".
5) I put the 8 digits unlock code and after 2 seconds the screen changes to Step 3 ("Input your PIN code..."), and when I put the PIN code, the screen changes to "Network Locked. Please input the unlock code"..., IS A LOOP!!.
I'm desperate, I don't know that I can do. I have make soft and hard reset but I have the same issue.
Please, I need help..., what can happen?, exists any alternative method for unlock my M600?.
Thanks for all!!

If you have another SIM card try that. Also, try removing the SIM PIN on the current SIM card. (you'll need another phone/device)
Solved!.
I have restore the full original Orange Rom and unlock code was work!!.
If anyone have this problem, I reccommended install the original rom and try again.
Thanks!!

I think it might be worthwhile putting that in the lokiwiz thread/wiki entry.
Sorry 3v5y, I'm searching the Lokiwiz forum but I can't find...
Please, tell me the direct link and I will put the issue with solution.
Thanks
Here's one link: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Prophet_Unlock_Sim
Thanks I3v5y.
I have modified the wiki.
Please see the result (the lines in red color is the lines that I have added) and if you believe it is necessary, rewrite my text because I think that my english is not good...

6. Just get a different SIM from the one your phone is locked to, and install it in the phone (you have to turn off your phone)
7. Turn on your phone
8. When it asks your pin code enter your normal pin.
9. It then asks you for the Service Provider Unlock Code: Here you insert the SIM unlock code you wrote down in step 5.
* NOTE: If you have a non original ROM, you can have a problem with unlock code, because when you put it, the screen
returns to SIM PIN code, and when you put the pin code, the screen changes again asking for unlock code...,
if this is your case YOU MUST CHARGE THE ORIGINAL ROM IN YOUR PDA, in this case only with your original rom you can
unlock the pda-phone.
10. That's it, enjoy your unlocked Prophet !
I've tried all the methods in this forum but I can't unlock it, I ran Lockwiz 0.3 and it gave my a number, but when I turn on the phone it doesn't ask me for a unlock code, I've tried with two sims, one with PIN and the other without, when I put the one that has PIN code it ask me to enter it but when I do it tells me that it's a invalid sim and the screen stays at the pin code entering proccess, of course when I put cancel the phone says is "searching" all the time. When I put the other sim it doesn't ask for the unlock code either and also stays at searching all the time.
I've put the sims on other phones so I know that they're not the problem.
I had my g4 hard SPL with X2H'S WM6.5 (with Manila2D) - {Build 23001} rom, but now I removed the hard SPL so to see if this fixed the problem but it didn't...
I would be really grateful if someone could help me, I've read lots of threads but haven't found a similar problem.
