All,
I downloaded the original Cingular/ATT Rom, just in case, and bought Sprite and backed up my settings. I downloaded SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe and ran it (from my PC, is this correct?). SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe seemed to run okay, and gave me the message "SDA Successfully unlocked, Please Reboot SDA Now!". I rebooted my phone and did not notice a change (I assume I should?) I ran the Rom update for WM6.1 Standard, which opened up a DOS-looking box that stayed there forever and did not indicate it was doing anything. After just over an hour I disconnected my phone and rebooted it, no change.
My questions:
1) Do I run SDA_ApplicationUnlock.exe from my PC or from the WM phone itself?
2) Any suggestions as to what I may be doing wrong?
3) What does CID Unlock do, and do I need it?
Just to review, I have a Cingular 3125 with WM5, and I want to go to WM6.1 Standard.
Please help! Thanks!

You were supposed to run Jump SPL on your phone which puts it into a special bootloader then run the update utility should run correctly. I personally prefer the MicroSD flash method myself.
Jump SPL?

Thanks icecube57!
I know that SPL files were copied to my phone automatically when I ran Rom updater, but I don't think it ever launched. I am really confused about the CID unlock. I read one post where it says I have to do this, and another that says for Cingular Roms you don't need to.
Also, you mention the MicroSD flash method - is there a post here that explains how to do that? I would not mind trying it if you think it works better. Please help!

If i dont say it someone else will. Please use the search function.
If the utility didnt automatically launch the Jump Spl program then navigate to the root of your phone using file explorer start it manually from your phone and it will put the phone into bootloader then try running the utility again. Thats how i had to do it with my phone
Thanks

Okay, that's fair, thanks. Can I get an answer on one more thing? I did look in the forums, in the Wiki ,etc. on this - I am still confused on what CID unlock is. I really don't want to brick my phone. When this worked for you, was this on a Cingular 3125? Did you have to CID unlock?

What you are talking about permenantly CID unlocks the phone which allows you to flash any rom. Instead of being stuck with carrier specific roms. What the JUMP SPL does is loads a specially modified bootloader that temporarily fakes the Update Utility into thinking your phone is CID unlocked that way you can flash any rom without going through that long complicated process in making it permenantly CID unlocked. I have a 3125 myself and flashes all the roms in this forum fine with the Jumps SPL Bootloader method.

i was gonna unlock my 8525 via pof's unlocker and downgrade solution when i read this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1062526&postcount=7 I then figured it wouldnt hurt to just called cingular and see if they would give me the unlock code...i placed a call to cingular's international department and get them to send me the unlock code in less then 12 hours by telling them i was planning to go on a trip out of the country on sunday and what is the soonest i could get the code..i then acted like i didnt know anything about getting a phone unlocked and he recommended that i place international roaming on my phone yada yada yada..... i declined and asked if i would still be able to roam while out of the country.. he said yes... i said thats fine.. but i would also like to have the phone unlocked incase i would like to buy a sim and use it for making local calls in the country that i will be in.. he said sure no problem... he submitted a request and in less then 12 hours i had the unlock code in my mailbox... i hope this helps anyone on cingular trying to unlock there phone with no modding...
now the second part of this thread is relating to the bootloader versions.. now i know that my bootloader is 1.6.. is it necessary for me to still use pof's method in combination with the downgrade in order to supercid unlock my phone in order to flash the rom with different hermes roms even tho' my phones sim is unlocked....is it possible to use pof's file to supercid unlock and then reflash back the same radio with no patch and same cingular rom to have the phone back to fully stock out of the box with the exception of having it be fully unlocked with the sim and sid..... also.. .is the same necessary for flashing the radio with different versions??..from what i understand you can "unhind the ext roms to see them but not activate themm.. and in order to use the features in the extended roms do i need to be supercid unlocked in order to unlock the ext.roms??i have fit4cat tweaker installed already and it makes the changes making me feel like i am accessing the ext.rom features already... and if so when i cid unlock my phone can i just pick and chose the .cabs to install from the different options on the different roms... .. i am not in an area that supports Edge .. but when i am will it display so on my screen with a E? or is that a mod i will need to do as well.. and i also see a feature in fit4cat that enables hsdpa.. i thought my phone would default using the connectin if it was available.. am i wrong.. and the ptt hack that someone on this forum created as a .cabs.. do i need to have it supercid ulocked to use that as well...
im sorry if alot of you have answered these questions time and time again.. i have really tried to answer my own questions for the last 8 hours or so with reading the forums and wiki's.. after a while it becomes a blur...
Ps. when using mtty.exe and i hook it up following exact settings and instructions when it connects it says CLIENTCLIENT then i hit the I to type info and i get CLIENT again.. no prompt.. ??help<< i was not in bootloader mode...oops.. it worked fine after i placed it in bootloader mode
thanks in advance

Yes, you need to patch the radio to CID-Unlock. It doesn't matter if the phone is SIM-Locked or not. This needs bootloader 1.04, you can have it by flashing cingular's 1.30 rom.

Yes, it is possible but you need to downgrade your bootloader to 1.04 for this, otherwise you won't be able to flash any radio (patched or not).

You need to have a SuperCID phone in order to UNLOCK the extrom, this means WRITE to it (i.e. delete cab files you don't need and use it as storage space, or put signed cab files from other ExtROM). If your Hermes is not SuperCID you'll be able to unhide it, but will not be able to unlock it.

It will not display "E", and the previous hack used in HTC Wizard for this doesn't work on Hermes. It displays "G" if you are under GPRS or EDGE coverage and "U" or "3G" if you are under UMTS/3G or HSDPA coverage.

Cingular ROMs have HSDPA enabled by default, you don't need to use that option from fit4cat hermes tweaker (it won't hurt if you do it), but it is there because not all roms have HSDPA enabled by default.

one more question... if i flash back to the cingular rom that is a 1.6 bootloader after i have done this whole process am i still able to flash to whatever i want providing that i have flashed from 1.6 to 1.4 unlocked sim and supercid previously.. basically does this flash the cidlock back on it.. or must i keep the bootloader in 1.4 in order to keep flashing roms
On another note.. i read these forums all night for the first time and i want to tell you Pof that you are the most helpful person i have ever come across on ANY forum board and the xda members are lucky to have you here... also extremely intelligent... thanks
extremely grateful
Abe
The main reason to SuperCID your Hermes is to be able to flash "whatever" rom you like, without having to bother with bootloader versions. If you use SIM & CID unlocker v2a to make your Hermes SuperCID it will be SuperCID forever, so the CID lock will not be back anymore.
Basically, after your device is SuperCID you only need to go back to bootloader 1.04 if you want to be able to flash extracted radio-upgrade only, as this is not possible with other bootloader versions.
is the patch u put in the radio overwritten when i apply a new rom???
the radio file is included in the rom you flash right?
or you can just find the radio file and flash that alone??
does the radio flash require it to be hooked via active synch or dissable
i have gotten Error 120 country id error twice now trying to flash ur radio flash.. any advice?
i should be outa noob questions shortly..

It doesn't really matter, as the RUU will kill activesync anyway, but I always recommend to disable activesync and start the update from bootloader mode (tri-color screen).

Hey abe,
thanks for the tip on getting my phone unlocked...It worked like a charm.
Well I being stupid person that I was loaded Faria's rom without unlocking my G4 it got to 99% and errored saying update error and such. So i did some research finding out that I had to unlock first, now after reaidng some tutorials I see things about uploading the EnableRapi to my 8125 but problem is when I turn it on it only has the rainbow colors I can't get in to the phone and I can't use it..
Could anyone please help me and guide me or paste me a thread on how I can fix this. I've been researching for hours and haven't gotten anywhere. If anyone can please help me itll be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
All you have to do is put your phone in bootloader mode then flash wizard love or the rom that your device was shipped with.
You havent told us what wm5 rom your device originally had on it so we cant help you there but Wizard Love can be found here and here.

i've installed farias o1st wm6 rom on my g4 device using the shelltoll method..
i wanted 2 try nother wm6 rom
do i have 2 go thru the entire unlock process again or just use the shell tool with the new rom
ok
u hav 2 go thru the unlocking CID process again & everytime u want 2 reflash
Cingular 8125 G4
All seems to be working back to normal question though using the shelltools it doesn't display all the information about the phone when I press Get Info, i have a 2.x.0001 but when I press get info it wont show the info on CID or the option below it, but itll allow me to Extract OS, is that okay? or do if I flash it, it won't work?

so i tried flashing it I thought it was successful I did the hard reset after I ran the ShellTools. Was I supposed to do anything after the hardreset? Because I though then maybe I can go on to trying Faria's stuff but when I did got to 99% and 302 error occured so now im flashing back to old ROM, any hints? tips? or programs to make the G4 unlocking easier? any or maybe any roms out there you know of that won't mess with the SPL/IPL that I can just load the rom and use it?

So you tried to flash Faria's rom to a CID locked G4 then when that didnt work you used shelltool. Following this you tried to flash Faria's rom to your still CID locked G4 and it didnt work again?
I'm a bit confused so I'll start at the beginning again. If you do in fact own a G4 CID locked device then the only way that you can upgrade your OS is to use shelltool, unless you want to pay imei-check to unlock it. Using the RUU method to update a CID locked G4 will produce an error and not finish flashing or it will complete the flashing process but your OS will not have changed.
Shelltool doesnt unlock your device, it will still be CID locked after shelltool completes. Shelltool only updates OS so the chance of bricking your device is minimal. Hope this helps.
to use the PK ROM?
I have searched and searched and not found an answer.
This is an unlocked 7501 from the US. Do I need to use the OliPro Unlocker or something else? Can I just load the ROM directly from a flash card?

Most definitely. Yours is only SIM unlocked. You need to CID unlock with OLIPRO's unlocker.

No worry mate. Glad that your journey was smooth.
Sorry for the newb question, but what do I get by unlocking it? thanks.
Unlocking enables you to put a new ROM image in place of the factory ROM that is on your unit.
ROM images, such as the PK Dual, can then be uploaded and installed in your Athena/Advantage giving you greatly increased functionality along with integrated updates for your hardware drivers.
While you could manually gather almost all of the updates that a ROM contains and install them yourself, the ROM conveniently packages these together and has been tested to make sure it is stable.
Unlocking using the new OliPro unlocker is a relatively painless and safe process that will open your device to ROM updates while creating a environment that makes it difficult to "brick" the device when you have problems with new ROM loads.
HOWEVER, make damn sure that your carefully read up on the process of readying your device for the unlocker, ALWAYS use the LATEST and CORRECT unlocker for your device and proceed cautiously. IF you aren't comfortable with the unlocker procedure, then DON'T try it. You can literally render your brand new $800 computer unusable with the only choice but to send it to HTC to be RMA'd and get a new one. Believe me, I know!
After the initial unlock procedure, your device becomes practically "bulletproof" for future ROM updates. But during the unlock procedure it IS vulnerable to problems.
Hope this helps!
-Alex-
although u should run the 3 steps on the unlocker,i only ran the 1st and 2nd coz the x7501 is simunlocked from the factory.word of advice,take the proper precautions and read ALOT before doing anything.enjoy!
Cool thanks for the info!
Hi there, I have very minimal experience with this stuff so I will provide as much detail as possible...
I had previously successfully programmed my HTC6800 back in March by unlocking with Olipro 2.4, then I flashed the radio with 3.27 and used dcd 2.3.2 for Bell on it. Now my memory is a little foggy as that was several months ago however I made it through the process fine. This encouraged my to try to update again today. I tried following the steps in the wiki as I could not find the guide I had used previously. I already had Olipro 2.4 so I was good at that step. I then tried running the newest radio update and it would not take. It gave me an error. I reset the phone and tried several times but to no avail. I then tried putting on dcd3.2.0 which went fine. THe phone rebooted and I made a test call and everything was fine. I however wanted the new radio update still so I thought I'd take another crack at it... it still would not update. In the wiki it said about relocking the phone and putting it back to the factory ROM and starting again. So I did this, I downloaded the relocking util and followed the instructions to relock the phone. That went fine... Olipro is gone and is shows the 1.06 like it's supposed too... next it said to put the factory ROM back on... well, I am will Bell and the link for the factory ROM is dead! I can't get it anywhere!!!
So currently my 6800 sits as the 3 colour screen with 1.06 relock on it and does nothing else. It has radio 3.27 on it and dcd 3.2.0.
Is there any way to fix this?????
Run this first to exit the bootloader and get into windows mobile. Then check out which rom you are on (I think you were on dcds rom). Then load radio via sd card method listed in the wiki. Then reload dcd if you are not already on the version that you want.
P.S. I have heard things about that ROM that it caused problems. You may want to read up on that here.
Nope
Well, I downloaded the file and tried running it but to no avail. It just comes up saying that the application failed to start because RAPI.DLL is missing.
Also
I tried running that app on a Vista machine as well and it just says that it can't open the USB port. However, windows found the device and installed a driver for it when plugged in AND it shows USB on the bootloader screen when plugged in.
ok..,. let me see...
try installing olipro 2.40 again, it seemes that your phone is locked (olipro 1.06) so it can't run the dcd custom rom... reset and see if you can enter windows...
then if you enter windows normally, downgrade to olipro 1.20 and install the new radio, then, once again upgrade to olipro 2.40 so it can enter windows...
let me know if it worked for you...

Install another carrier's stock ROM (though to keep things easier avoid the Telus one as it doesn not include a radio ROM) and avoid letting it run any customisations after boot/screen calibration.
You are fine.
Here's the problem
OK. Here's the problem. I obviously misread the instructions on setting the unit back to stock as I just read them again and I realize my mistake. I did not load the stock ROM on first. I used the Re-lock program and re-locked my unit before putting the stock ROM back on. So I sitting at the 3 colour screen with SPL 1.06 and I have radio 3.27 on the unit and dcd's latest ROM on it. I can't get it past the 1.06 bootloader. I have tried a hard reset, I have tried the program above to exit the boot loader and it does not work. Is there any way I can get Olipro 2.4 back on or exit this bootloader???
just connect your phone to the computer (it's ok to be on the tri color screen) and install olipro 2.40 from the computer...
you just need to be sure that when you connect the phone in the tri color screen it says USB...
i'm attaching Olipro 2.40
No Dice
Nope. I had tried that already. I just tried again. When I run Olipro 2.40 the command prompt comes up and then come up with a window saying "Cannot Find Device" (or something VERY close to that). It then asks if you'd like to retry, clicking retry just keeps bringing up the same message. If you click "No" on retrying it will eventually move on to the next step and load up the flash program. It will then attempt to flash the unit (Grey screen with the status bar comes up) but it just sits at 0% and eventually comes up with a 242 communication error.
i had a similar problem yesterday when i tried to upgrade the radio form 3.42.02 to 3.42.30 and taht solved my problem...
so you basically cannot exit the bootloader mode?? even when you hard reset your device??
Can the unlocker be flashed from a memory card? Has anybody ever tried?

I didn’t think it was possible to flash back to a stock Bell (non-GPS) rom/radio after flashing to a GPS radio.
Does anyone know if it’s possible to flash the SPL (bootloader) from an SD card?
No2chem over at ppc geeks has a new SPL that loads from the device, but it needs be running.

I would be interested to know if anyone on Bell has managed to successfully downgrade a 6800 to stock.
i thought dcd's new 3.2.0 needed a radio of 3.35 or higher to run and does not flash the radio when u flash his rom. Another problem with the phone not coming out of the bootloader is that you have to disable usb connections in active sync or windows mobile device center for the exit bootloader app to work. Try disabling the usb connection in whichever one applies for you and run the app again. If you can get out of the bootloader try to go back to ollipro 2.40 or use one of no2chems bootloaders as they work from the device and an sd card no need for a pc to flash the bootloader. once bootloader is unlocked again run a full radio/rom update like the sprint stock 3.35 easily found on htc's website under the titan (us version of the site). Don't let the carrier custimizations run ... the file that runs after u calibrate screen and set timezone just pull the battery. Then grab whatever rom / radio you want to or were trying to flash 2 before and name it put it on the root of an sd card (thats under 2gb and formatted to fat32) and rename the ruu_sighned.nbh file to TITAIMG.nbh hold power + camera and hit your soft reset button. The tri color screen will come up and should say loading then promt to hit the power button to flash and show u what u r flashing. cdma (radio). os (radio rom) or splash screen, or whatever you r trying to flash hit power button to start once done it will sit with update complete on the screen pull the battery out for about 30 sec and put it back in reboot and enjoy the custom rom or radio.

You can use nueSPL 2.47 to load the locker/relocker but you need to be booted into WM6 to do so. You need to reload another rom that uses the bootloader you have currently loaded and then you can move forward or backward.

Hmm, okay first we need to know what type off phone you have, you can find that under your battery, by me it's displayed Niki100.
Second one, which is important, is your device simlocked.
Regards,
I have it too Nikki100
No it is not sim locked
Okay, sorry for the late reply, but I was at my work, and also tonight I have to leave, if you don not have a simlock the only thing you have to do can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=631493 just read carefull and if you still don't know how it works just let me know and I will help you.
This is how i did it:
1. I just started at step 4, and copied the sspl 1.16 to my phone.
2. Turned the phone off.
3. Removed sim and sd-card
4. Turn on the phone and launched sspl 1.16
5. Connect on computer and usb appears.
6. Running hardspl 1.22
Thats all, I'm not sure if it is the right way but it worked for me.
Important:
Use at your own risk! I'm not responsible for any damage to your device.

No, before you flash a rom, you have to flash Hardspl 1.22
Greetz,
You did not mentioned hardspl above?!?!
and what about that radio ROM do i have to flash that too.
I dont get you, so i run sspl, and i get bootloader, what now, do i flash hardspl while in that bootloader or?

Hi again, you only need to flash Hardspl 1.22 or 1.15 but they say that 1.22 is better, and yes you can do that in bootloader.
And why you have to do this is, because if you only use sspl you have to do that everytime you want to flash a rom with hardspl you only have to do this once and you can flash all the rom's (for the Niki) what you want, so this means if you can succesfull flash the hardspl 1.22 you are done with this and you can search for rom's you like
Hopefully I'll gave you enough information but if you want to ask something you can always ask, there is just a small thing with the radio but I explain that after you did the hardspl.
Greetz,
