I've used the v3a unlocked program many times without any problems ever. Today I got a 8525 in, and I ran the v3a program, everything went pretty normal, flashed the IPL/SPL radio or whatever, and then when it came time to running the unlocker on the phone, it wouldn't work. I tried to copy the unlocker.exe to the phone and then run it, the little notification comes up asking me if I want to run the program, I hit yes, and the phone does nothing. I hard reset the phone, then tried it, same problem. I upgraded the phone to the latest AT&T software and then tried it again, still, the program just doesn't run after I hit "yes". Anyone have any ideas as to what is going on? Thank in advance!

Are you able to post a screenshot? I think that the new interface leaves room for some error. When it is ready to run, you have to use the right softkey to initiate the unlocker on the phone.

after running the unlocker did you wait for at least a minute or 2? it can take a few minutes...
Thanks for the quick responses guys, I tried it again, but this time I did all the steps manualls instead of using Autounlocker.bat or whatever it's called and it worked!! Thanks!
My 8525 in en-route with FedEx..it will only be a matter of time before I have to go WM6 having got used to it on my old S200.
From this post I'm assuming that v3 of the unlocker is working??
So forgive me, as I'm mostly new. I have been searching for hour for a thread, not wanting to duplicate and I cannot find this issue.
Windows XP Pro Computer
Running WM5 on the BRAND NEW phone.
Just downloaded activesync 4.5
I bought an att8525 and want to upgrade it to wm6. I found the thread with the official rom's. I figured I'd do the official before I got tricky. My problem is this, when I run the program and the phone is connected, the phone kicks off into the tricolored screen (I believe is the bootloader?) I try to run the upgrade and before the upgrade begins one screen says be sure you have an activesync connection. Well, I can't get an activesync with the bootloader screen on. So I tried running the program with the phone in bootloader AND I tried getting the phone back to the OS before continuing the installation. Neither worked.
So both come back with an error trying to connect to the phone spitting back crap about be sure the phone is still connected".
In the bootloader?? screen it says 2 things.
herm100
ipl-1.03
herm100
spl-1.11
I have had no problems with this phone before... and I very much would like windows mobile 6, and I know it works, I've seen it, I just don't know whats going on. Please, any help would be appreciated.

I feel your pain and had the same problems.
Bag the conventional upgrade and use the memory card method. Refer to the instructions in the wiki. It works quite well.
I had the same problem. I used this and it worked:

Awesome. I tried some things to SuperCID, but nothing worked as well as pof's any bootloader version 3 supercid program. Amazing.
Then loaded up the ROM, works great, thanks all.
So I'm a total n00b at unlocking phones but I was trying to unlock my alltel 6800 and after running the program and following the steps I'm stuck on the screen that is red/green/blue/white that shows the rom info and says USB at the bottom when plugged into the pc. I tried a hard boot/soft etc. and can't find a solution. Also activesync is not recoginizing it. Thanks much for any help.
i believe you have to flash it with a new rom/radio.
download the the newest radio. connect your phone via usb. your screen should be in the tricolor (2.40spl) at this point. run the radio flash.
Download a new rom. do the same as above.
to get to tricolor screen (hold power + camera + press soft reset)
Yeah i'm thinking I might have to load it from the SD card but I can't find my stinkin adapter so I can format the SD card. Activesync is not recognizing my phone at all.

it IS recognizing the phone being plugged in if it says USB at the bottom, so just flash a new rom/radio and you should be good.
HOLD, Give a little more info please

OK, before it is bricked, tell us the numbers on the rainbow screen, then if it is 1.6 then run the 2.40 olipro, then new ROM, then radio. It is not broken yet, activesync does not like it when the unit is in bootloader mode so it will not show it, but the RUU will work if you just go forward with it and when done it will get you out of bootloader. If you get confused and lost then being an alltel unit you can put the 1.6 bootloader back on, run the stock RUU from utstar.com, bring it back stock and start again.
I got it fixed and installed the sprint firmware but silly me let it run through the setup and now it's trying to use the spring network. Sometimes I wish i could punch myself in the face..
Ok so i got no2chem up and running great but I still can't actually dial out. When i dial it says i'm not allowed to etc after a few rings. Is there some way to change back to the alltel network?
ok now i'm running titan 3.35 but can no longer get active sync which is required to relock the phone. I've tried everything but activesync does not want to work anymore. Any ideas?

First of all, you don't relock your phone...you leave 2.4-olipro on it because it's required to boot your phone with this rom on it.
Second, go into activesync settings and make sure usb is enabled in the connections.
get back to Alltel,,,,

I'm sorry but i'm not familiar with those terms. I do have USB enabled on activesync though but it never detects it.
From reading other threads I assumed I had to relock it, then reload the alltel rom to get the radio working again. Is there another way?
I got the factory alltel rom back in and working but it's not letting me make calls still. Any ideas on how to fix this?
Well i got my phone working finally but now the data line is not working. It says I need a password now which I haven't needed before.
Hi Folks,
I'm stuck in the tri-color screen for bootloader 1.06.
I have DCD 3.2.0 w/3.42.02 radio on the XV6800 and was trying to upgrade to radio 3.42.30. My system is Vista 32-bit.
I ran the Titan Relocker and it put SPL-1.06.0000 back onto the device and was planning on then putting 1.2 onto it.
Running titan_exitbl.exe says "Cannot open USB port. Please make sure, that USB connection in ActiveSync is disabled."
Unfortunately it is now stuck and even after ending the Sync Center service I can't get titan_exitbl.exe to pull it out of the Boot Loader.
Ideas? Thank you!
I could fire up an old XP laptop and try it from there.
Loaded ActiveSync 4.5 on an XP laptop, disabled USB connections, ran titan-exebl.exe and the device is booting now.
I'll continue on and see what else I can screw up.
Loaded SPL 1.20
Loaded 3.42.30
Loaded SPL 2.40
Device is back to working! Off to see if GPS is back after being lost with 3.42.02.
titan-exebl.exe
Where can I find titan-exebl.exe? Google doesn't turn up any results other than here?
titan_exitbl.exe
Never mind... just located it on my own hard drive!
Cheers!
Stuck on Bootloader
OK... I've tried titan_exitbl.exe, and it still doesn't work.
Here's my problem in chronological order:
1. I've been having a few problems (bugs) in my current custom ROM (PPC Kitchen 3.49 version), so I decided to re-flash to a stock ROM, see if the problems were fixed, and then try to flash back to a custom ROM.
2. I tried flashing to the Sprint 3.35 ROM. The RUU showed the progress bar on both my PC and the phone. But at 0%, I got a message saying "an error has occured" - or something to that effect.
3. I decided that the error was because I was running a custom ROM, and Sprint didn't like that. So I ran the Titan Relocker utility, thinking this would cure the problem.
4. I followed the steps on the screen and then got a message saying the relocker utility had completed successfully. The phone rebooted and went into the tri-color bootloader mode.
5. I retried the Sprint 3.35 ROM update, but got the same connection error, and the progress slider would never move from 0%.
6. I decided the phone had locked up and performed a reset with the stylus. The phone rebooted and went back into bootloader mode. The screen shows "TITA100 SPL-1.06.0000"
7. And that's as far as I've gotten. I've tried several hard resets using the buttons and the stylus together. I've tried removing the battery and reinstalliong... but the phone just goes back into bootloader mode.
I've tried both titan_exitbl.exe and UNI_Exitbootloader.exe, and neither utility seems to help. I get a message saying that "All data was sent... the phone will reboot now... please check your screen". The phone's screen blinks for a moment, and then returns to bootloader. Nothing can get it anywhere else.
I've tried different USB cables and ports. Activesync won't detect it, but the utility update software does.
When I run the Sprint 3.35 ROM update utility, I get an error at 11% saying "invalid vendor ID" and the update refuses to run. I tried to run the Titan Re-locker utility again, but it requires an ActiveSync connection. I've tried both enabling and disabling the USB connection in ActiveSync, but that seems to make no difference. The utility simply says no USB connection is available. The ROM update utilities will detect the device via USB - they just refuse to work with them.
I also tried running a DCD Tital 2.1.0 Bell ROM. The progress slider freezes at 0%, and then I get a message saying the RUU has encountered communication errors during the update. I've been through the recovery process the utiity suggests about a dozen times... it sill returns the phone to the bootloader screen.
So I'm getting pretty frustrated... does anyone have any ideas?
Try changing your spl back to 2.40.
Throwing it back into the tri color screen again and flash the sprint stock 3.35
But put it on the root of a fat32 formatted micro sd card in the flavor of under 2gb.
Just run the exe from your computer it will extract the files from the exe to some location on your computer, normally the ruu update folder.
There will be a ruu_sighned.nbh file locate it and copy it to the fat32 formatted card rename it TITAIMG.nbh
Let the phone boot into the bootloader and it should detect the file on the sd and update the rom for you, by stating loading ......
Then will prompt you to update press power key.
Sense you are not on sprint don't let the first time custimizations run ... pull battery once you get to your mobile today screen on first boot...
Use active sync or the sd method to update your rom to whatever you wanted originally.
Most full updates from carriers the ones that flash both the radio and rom will run regardless of the boot loader thats on the device.
Happy flashing
Just thought I'd toss in here that GPS does work, but I have to use GPS Viewer to get a lock on the satellites first.

Please read. I said run 2.4 not 2.47. Put the phone in bootloader and it should say usb at the bottom. Then run 2.4 .exe unlocker. I think it should run without using activesync. And by spl mode do you mean the phone is in the bootloader.

Ok so i guess it needs activesync. About your only option is to install a pregps rom so the phone will boot and then you can reflash the custom rom. Below is a pregps Verizon rom and radio that will work for 1.06 bootloader. Called rom 2.09.

Hi. I wanted to install Android on my HD2 but for that I need radio versions 2.08 - 2.12. And currently my radio version is 2.06 so I wanted to flash it to 2.10 or one of them between 2.08-2.12. For this I used Custom RUU. Everything went well untill it said installing, and it went to 4% and then suddenly my phone reboots and then on my computer it says "Error 270. The image file is corrupted. Please check your Update Utility."
Well what have I done wrong?

Did you have install HSPL on your device?
Yes I have installed HSPL. But if you have installed HSPL, is it then supposed to show "HSPL" somehere on the bootloader screen? Because on mine it doesn't.
But then that's weird because I did install HSPL and it even said succesfull. But still I get the same error when I try to flash the radio.
Go into bootloader by holding the VOL- (down) button, while pressing the End Call button to boot up your phone from being all the way turned off.
Check on your bootloader (tri-color) screen for the letters HSPL and the name Cotulla.
If these things are not present, then for some reason you don't have HSPL installed.
If this is the case, stay in bootloader, and re-run HSPL, and then check again in your bootloader to make sure you have HSPL, and then re-flash the custom_ruu
Chances are it just didn't take because your phone didn't have HSPL for whatever reason. You might want to re-download the radio ROM just to be sure you didn't get a corrupted/incomplete download.
Good luck
oops ignore plz
but what a shame that my pc even doesnt play with custom ruu.nothitng happen when i click.i have everything installed.

Ok, then my HSPL isn't installed. But that's real' weird. Because when I install HSPL everything goes okay and it even says "Succesful" etc. I've tried to install HSPL for like 4 times and it always says installation completed, but however it doesn't show anything like HSPL or Cotulla on the bootloader screen. And I do have SPL 1.42.0000, which is required to install HSPL. And I also disabled my anti-virus so what have I done wrong?
By the way: When I go to bootloader mode it always goes to a grey screen first with blue words "Loading" and after a few seconds it says "Not allow" and after that it finally goes to bootloader mode. Is it supposed to be like that or what's wrong with this?

anti virus program give you a hit when you first downloaded it?
many times the file gets disabled so you need to download it again, even if you turned off the av or told it to allow customruu.
also right click and "run as administrator" even if you are logged in as admin.

there's a leoimg on your sd card (or your phone thinks there is) but it isn't starting. remove the card.
Ok, well I used HSPL 2 and it installed correctly. HSPL 1 however didn't work for me. After I installed HSPL 2 it clearly said something like HSPL 2.08 on the bootloader screen. So I tried to flash to a new radio with CustomRUU. It all went well, untill it was installing and suddenly said: CONNECTION ERROR CRITICAL ERROR or something like that. It also said that the USB cradle or something was unconnected, however it was still connected and I didn't even touch it. After that my phone rebooted and went into bootloader mode again. The weird thing is that it doesn't say HSPL 2.08 anymore. Now t says SPL 1.42 again so the HSPL went away or something. I tried to reboot the phone (using the red button at the back of the phone) but it went into bootloader mode again. Well, all it does is go into bootloader mode. I can't even get to the normal thing again, only the bootloader mode. What the hell have I done wrong?
By the way: If I'm in bootloader mode all it says is this:
HX-BC
SPL-1.42.0000 XE <-- (before this it still had HSPL but now it went away)
MicroP-Wrong Platform (0x0)
MicroP(TOUCH) 0x30
Can anyone help me? Have I bricked my phone??
Just a question/suggestion,
Did you already thought to use/install the latest stock ROM 3.14 !?
the reason of this suggestion is this stock ROM have Radio 2.15.50 already integrated (no need of HSPL) and it's compatible with Android.
Well I didn't, I will try to do it. But I don't know how. Because my phone is still only able to get into bootloader mode. And it won't even charge it's battery..
So do I have to put the Stock ROM on my SD now, and flash it from the SD card?
I don't even know how much battery my phone still has..

Ok, then rest you the flashing over SD.
Make attention to use the right stock ROM; use your S/N to get access at your stock ROM on the HTC webpage.
deleted please ignore
Ok so I just extract the .exe and take the .nbh file of it and rename it to leoimg.nbh and put it on SD and start flashing?
