Hi!
I am new to Qtek 8500.So i would like to upgrade to WM6.1 and i read about the CID Unlock and may sound stupid but i still do not know if there is any way to know if a phone is CID locked or not!So i would like to know if there is any way to know if a phone is or not CID locked!This would make someone(ME) happy because i would be a step closer to a successfull upgrade!
thank you!
just try to flash Cingular 3125 or i-mate Smartflip firmware
if it will stop flashing on 5% then you have a CID locked device
If i flash and stops at 5 %
will the phone work after?
yes, it will work
thank you very much!
you are the best
great work thank you!

Total noob here, so please be nice
I've got a Dopod 838pro, which I'd unlocked in anticipation of flashing the HTC AKU3.3 ROM. I no longer wish to do this, and was hoping to 'relock' my CID to the Dopod default in case I encounter any issues down the track.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks
Hi all, Just got a an O2 mini S for my wife because she liked mine so much. Unfortunately it is a G4 (mine is a G3) and it has all of these CID unlocking issues. I want to put a WWE Rom on this German G4. Is it correct that if I unlock my phone at http://www.imei-check.co.uk/ I can put any ROM on the G4? Or can I still only put certain ROMs (if so which ones?) on the G4? Thanks for any help.
Dave
yes http://www.imei-check.co.uk/ will cid unlock your phone, making it possible for you to flash your device with all sorts of roms using the normal ruu .exe method.
Alternatively you can use mun's shelltool.
Good Luck
Got it
I used the tutorial here: CID Locked Flashing (MUN's as you suggested), and I was able to flash a WWE Rom. I have to say I was scared I would damage the phone, but MUN's top notch instructions helped a lot.
Thanks for the help!

Same thing happend with me. No WM ROM available for my CID so I had to send it back. Damn I regret I did not unlock before ROM-flash'ing !
Maybe your telephone supplier can provide you with the original ROM installer ? Mine did not
BR Eric
There is an answer for this..just read all the threads...
I think you can unlock from the bootloader! No need to send it back!
Thanks Adamelphick,Br Eric,...
Can you show me how to unlock from bootloader or other way clearly ?
if you have original ROM for T-mobile, please upload for me( my phone:Athen100
IPL-v1.00
SPL-v1.06)
Thanks!
how did it happen
This rom will solve ur problem for sure

Hi there. I've searched a lot already, I know you don't like us noobs to ask the same thing 4567890 times. But 've searched.
I have a G4 Cingular 8125. SIM locked to cingular of course... how can I use it with another carrier...
I already even flashed another ROM (XM6r5). Used lokiwiz 0.2b (couldn't find a newer version, but I heard somewhere there's 0.3a... just couldn't find it). But I still get the "network is locked" message at booting up.
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards.

hmmm!
Are you sure you have a G4 phone ? why I ask this is cuz lokiwiz02b doesn't work on a G4 device and SIM/CID unlock it ? only lokiwiz03 MSL works on G4 phone but can only SIM unlock code is generated and still can't CID unlock the phone,infact a G4 device cannot be at all CID unlocked,how did you upgrade to XM6r5 Rom ? plz explain accurately and post the present IPL/SPL ...?
of the phone here.
Cheers!
i have a G4 phone, and lokiwiz 3 didnt work for me

What exactly you want to do,if you just want to get SIM unlock code,then use lokiwiz03a to generate a SIM unlocking code,but if you want to upgrade it to any latest wm6 rom,use the 'SoftSPL' or 'HardSPL' method,its not possible to CID unlock a G4 phone.
Download the 'WST Tool' and run the 'CID Action' button to verify the CID locked/unlocked status of your phone.
BTW, whats the present IPL/SPL...? of the phone. As you say you have flashed wizard_love Rom,whats the status of the phone ?
Cheers!
eh guys i just unlocked cingular 8125 with lockwiz 03. really great.
my cousin has 2 orange spv m3100 and was thinking about upgrading them to windows mobile 6 or 6.1 depending on rom's available
is this easily done?
and would it be best to unlock the phone so it can go on all networks before the rom update or after it?
all advice would be great thank you
Upgrading your device's rom is quite easy after youve done it once, just check the wiki page, upgrading for beginners this should tell you all you need to know about flashing a rom for the first time.
Have fun
cheers scotty
we're guna havea play about with both of them next tuesday/wednesday when we're both free
maybe unlock teh sim so it goes any network aswell
another quick question
do you know if the latest rom on there for the orange spv m3100 is a wm6 build?
no there wasnt a wm6 released for the spv m3100 the actual newest orange rom is a update on wm5 it is in my uploaded file i think if you want to have a look, i used a cooked rom after hard-spl and super cid everything works fine and i have flashed quite a few roms.
Have fun
thanks
do you know of any wm6 roms for the spv?
or if i got the phone unlocked and used a vodafone sim in it would i be able to flash vodafone roms or would i still have to use the orange rom?
James, going to your original question, I've recently done this myself, and over the past week, i've flashed my phone numerous times, so its very easily done.
Just read the guides, and make sure your 100% confident that you've understood it, I did and i'm 100% happy with the outcome!
Thanks Greeee
did you flash a wm6 or a wm5?
cause it comes with a wm5, but wanna updte to a wm6
Tbh, I should've explained something...
My phone is the HTC Hermes 200, not the SPV M3100, although they are the same phone, mines not branded by any network.
It was shipped to me (Bought secondhand) as WM6.1, so all I did last week was updated the HardSPL and since tried a few roms.
I didn't have to use SuperCID, to unlock mine, as it was unlocked, but I do wish you well buddy, and word of recommendation, try not to use branded software on phones, as they bog them down with too much bloatware, stick with what you like.
If need be, I'll help where I can, but tbh, your in safer hands with everyone in here, as all I did was read the guides, and stuck to what was being advised.
The people here are good, which makes it so much easier to use!
cheers Greeee
well im thinking of getting it unlocked before i do anything to it anyway, when using roms without a specified carrier does that mean i can use any rom or is it best to stick with the operator specified?
if you super cid you device you can use any rom that has been cooked or from any carrier as it is basically a unlock for that a bit like a sim unlock. most people use the cooked roms by the chefs in the wm6 part of the forum where there are wm6/6.1 and 6/5 roms that have been cooked and have different features so you will probably have to do a bit of flashing and some looking around before you find a rom that is best suited to you.
If you have ne more questions just ask, Have fun
cheers again scotty
super cid, that easy to do?
just like flashing?
and could i sitll use any carrier rom even if i got someone at a shop to unlock my phone to any carrier?
super cid an sim unlocking is different to flashing i think i dont really remember
wiki on sim an cid unlock here
and a thread here
hope this helps and saves u paying to have it unlocked good luck
yer unlocking and super cid are dif to flashing
are super cid and unlocking the same you know?
cheers for the links, i'll try saving some cash now
no problem and they both come in the same program you just choose which one you want to do both.
Good luck
whats teh splbootloader thing what i been reading about?
it says you need to install that or something :s
do you mean hard-spl?
yer thats what i mean
you will need to flash version 7 2.10 after the sim and cid unlock this prevents your device from bricking if a flash goes wrong
cheers
so sim/cid unlock
then flash hard spl 7 2.10
then flash my rom?
