SORRY TO POST AGAIN - BUT I WASN'T SURE IF CERTAIN FORUMS ARE VIEWED BY CERTIN PEOPLE
Hello,
I desperately need some help.
My girlfriend bought a HTC Touch Dual from ebay which was locked to the Orange Network in the UK. I tried to unlock the phone for her so she could use her Vodafone SIM and have made a right mess! I used an eight-step process on one of the threads on this forum and got completley lost.
Firstly, I don't really know what I'm doing, and have no idea what a 'radio', 'rom', etc is. In fact, in reading these forums I realise how out of my depth I am.
Would somebody be able to help me out. Not necesarily with unlocking, but just getting the unit back to working order - i.e. so the cameras work, the sound works, the screen responds to my taps, the wireless card works, etc...
Please remember I know nothing about these machines, so you will need to use VERY simple explanation!!
Thank you in advance,
Gary
First thing you need to do before you even touch the magic dust behind the devices is put HardSPL on it. (That will pretty much stop you turning it into a paper weight) Install the 1.22 version, there's a link a little bit down the first post.
Secondly you will want to CID and SIM unlock it, use THIS guide. This will allow you to put other non-official ROM's on it. and will allow you to use any sim card. Follow this guide to the tee, if you lock i and cant unlock it again because you haven't followed i, you may have o pay money for someone to unlock it online.
The next parts are optional.
Choose a ROM you like, I personally use Salvy.C.83's ROM's they are quick, look pretty and retain battery well with the right radio. ROM's are pretty much the operating system (Windows) that tend to come packaged with freeware software built in.
Choose and appropriate radio for the ROM you have chosen. Different ROM's require different radios, for example Salvy's ROM require 1.65+. Radios are the low level drivers that interact and control the hardware on the phone. Audio, Bluetooth, Camera and the Cellular radio are some example of what it controls. Don't forget to check if your phone is a NIKI or a NEON, I'm not sure of the exact differences (I believe he NEON is the 20version.) Only the NIKI radios work with the NIKI and visa-versa with the NEON. To check take the battery out and there will be a big sticker with NIKI or NEON on it =]
Think that just about covers it. other than the Touch Dual doesn't have wireless connectivity, it lacks some of the hardware.
PM me if you require anything else =]

UPDATE: This tool has been superseded by a newer version. This new tool does not work for Radio version 1.05.12 (see below). The new tool works for 1.05.12A and later. For more information on the new tool see the new thread
==============================================
This is old information. Only use this method for 1.05.12
Despite some set-backs and not precisely the easy tool we want (yet), we didn't want to hold this back.
We are proud to present the new unlock tool for the XDA II!
One of the prerequisites for using this tool is puting the XDA II in bootloader mode.
Unfortunately this will also mean a hard reset of the device: you will loose all current data!
So the advice is: MAKE A BACK-UP FIRST! (And test that it works).
Puting the device in bootloader mode requires pressing three buttons at once:
The Power button, the Action button (also called Navigation pad)
and the Reset button in a hole at the bottom with the stylus.
When you run this tool on your PC, it will run in a DOS box and extract the unlock code from the device.
It will probably not work on Windows 98, but it does on Windows 2000 and XP.
This tool was tested with Radio version 1.06.x. It might not work on Radio version 1.10.x!
It won't unlock the device for you. You can do it through the standard interface.
When you run it, it looks like this:
Code:
XDA Developers XDA2UNLOCK tool
This program will extract the unlock code from your XDA II.
For this to be possible, a few steps are necessary:
1. The XDA II needs to be put in bootloader mode.
NOTE: THIS WILL WIPE ALL YOUR DATA SO FIRST BACK-UP!
You enter the bootloader by holding the Power button and the Action button
while pressing the stylus in the reset hole on the bottom.
In the bootloader mode, the display will be gray and say Serial at the top.
2. Next put the device in the USB cradle. The display will now say USB
and the first time Windows will detect a new device.
3. Disable USB in Active Sync in 'File -> Connection Settings'
Now the device is ready to extract the unlock code.
Type YES when you have completed the above steps and want to continue: YES
Communication port opened.
waiting for radio bootloader
reading first block...
reading second block...
Unlock code: 2040248
When you insert a blocked SIM in your XDA2,
you can enter the above code in the SIMLock box.
Alternatively, you can connect to the wireless modem
and enter the following AT command:
AT%HTCLOCK=0,2040248,1
Do not forget to enable USB in Active Sync again!
For download, go to http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/xda2unlock
Please write comments, questions, supporting explanations etc in this thread.
:lol: WOW
The bar is stocked up with a few extra barrels of beer for the celebration.
he's the best!
You are really the beast one!
have a bear and many thanks for your greater job.
Last thing would be to making writeable the extended rom, as the last 10 MDAII i had, they're not writeable anymore.
Thanks and ciao.
working on that one. seems to be protected rather good. I suspect that unprotecting it will involve reformatting the partitions. and then reloading them with data.
have a bear and many thanks
Dave
Help ! please , I got a problem , everything runs ok until :"reading second block"... the DOS box disapear !!! no code ....what can I do ????

WONDERFULL !!! Thanks, thanks, thanks : my xda2 is free !!!
I love you !! :wink: :mrgreen: It's a fantastic Christmas present !...... you're the best ...Cheers !
It worked!
Since O2 charge £15 to do that (and there's no guarentee that they'll do it)... I'm donating it to you!
Thanks a lot guys!
Congrats. You are a great blessing to the tech community. Though I'm in Nigeria and I doubt if I will get an XDAII soon, but now I know whenever it comes unlocking will not be a problem.
God bless and preserve you.
Great: it even works! :wink:
Thanks for giving us Freedom of Provider
I've tested it too
It works fine on my O2 locked XDA2. Brilliant. I take back all I said.
thanks works like a dream!!!
THANK YOU
Mogelijkheid gebruik van MDA i.c.m. andere providers
Heb het unlock-programmaatje even uitgerpobeerd en werkt ook voor de MDA2! Ben dus erggg blij;-)
We hebben de MDA2 op voorraad en kan door ons gratis worden aangeboden i.c.m. een (zakelijk) T-Mobile Optimaal-abonnement!
Dus heb je interesse, just let me know;-)
Grtz,
Sander
Thanks, It ended up being very easy.
Thanks!
:lol:
Excellent guys. Worked like a dream! Many, many thanks.
A Message to SANTA!
WELL You have DONE IT Again!
THANK YOU!
May all your dreams come true!
Mine did! :wink:
Have I fried my XDA 2?
I've had this thing 1 hour and I was running the latest rom upgrade from O2. While it was checking the rom in my XDA2 it came back saying "Error 120: Country ID Error". Now the thing is stuck in a serial bootloader 1.03 mode and grey screen.
I'd not made ANY changes to config of the XDA before trying to upgrade it.
Any ideas?
Don't lose hope mate! I had a very similar problem, with the same result, only my screen said "Serial v1.01" Black text on grey background, no backlight. When I placed it into the USB Cradle it changed to "USB v1.01". It would do this even after I took the battery out for 20 minutes, the moment I relaced the battery, without even pressing the power button. I believe this is correct operation for the XDA II when it's "between ROMs" so to speak, perhaps someone in authority will confirm this?
Anyway, after rebooting the XDA II and the PC, and re running the upgrade sequence about 10 times it worked, and I now have a perfectly functional XDA II. Made me sweat, and swear, for a few hours though, I can tell you.
Keep trying and good luck. Sorry I can't help more!
Andy
I have the same problem... still not working eventhough tried many many times..
It wont even go to bootloader mode.. (pressing power, navigation and reset button)
I come up with serial on top but when i plug-in to a usb cradle it turns to USB and v.1 06 at bottom..
I also tried with different roms.. (QTEK and MDAII) upgrade utility but it only comes up with a window "checking the information on your pocket pc.. .please wait" then the xdaII screen went blank (like no power) and the utility does nothing else..
can someone help? or have i lost the xda II totally?
Hi,
Same problem for me!
Please let me know how it can be solved.
:evil:
I am in the same deep **** ma self! please any1 who knows please help us!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

alimx, You could be more polite replying to him, he was giving you a suggestion, why you become RUDE!!

:evil: :evil: :evil:
alimx,
when it says "Serial" and "v1.06" then changes to "USB" when you place in the cradle, IT IS in bootloader mode.
I had this same problem with a recent i-mate I bought for my boss. It won't let you downgrade or switch to any other ROM besides the 1.66 i-mate ROM.
1. Open Activsync without the unit in the cradle.
2. Go to Activsync and uncheck the box where it says "Allow USB Connection with this Computer" (seems strange I know but it works)
3. Put the i-mate in the cradle. It should say "USB" and "v1.06" at the bottom.
4. Download and run the i-mate ROM version 1.66 from clubimate website.
5. Allow it a few minutes and it should finally come up with the screen about converting blah blah to blah blah ROM.
For some reasons, the new i-mates coming out that have the 1.66 ROM will not allow a downgrade to ANY OTHER ROM. Which I think is BS.
For the guy having trouble with 1.10 Radio version. My suggestion is to re-run the 1.66 ROM (I think it's your only option at this point until a new ROM is issued from i-mate). It may fix things. My 1.10 radio version seemed better the second time I loaded the ROM (I know it shouldn't make a difference but it seemed to).[/list]
Hi
When i tried the upgrade program version 1.0 from orange 166 DK my XDAII started at least to show error codes when upgrading.
Before it only become black
My unit was á new QTEK 2020 with french system 1.66, boatloder 1.06 maybe newer units needs the latest himalya upgrade software.
I will keep trying
Dear all.
I had the very same problem couple nights ago. All I did was soft and hard reset, all of which didn't help. But just before I lost my hope, I re-cradled my XDA II, at that time my xda's screen was still black and displayed "Serial", then I chose different upgrade version and installed it from my PC and everything turned out fine.
HTH Cheers,
I am having the same trouble
I am trying all these suggestions, but with no luck so far! (my screen displays v1:01 When I try and install anything on it, my pc can't detect the device
Any more advice?
HI
I found this
http://www.sourceo2.com/O2_Developers/Devices/O2_Xda_II/XdaIIRom.htm
I downloaded the xdaII launch rom, and it is working!! My screen tells me it is upgrading!!
Hope this helps!
Have fun

Tried any of these tricks mate:

You had your chance, I would rather give the wife a chance..(joking).
Press the on/off + the button next to the jog dial + reset (altogether). if you get the multi color screen you are ok.
This is a good place to start:

aussiebob can i ask what upgrade you downloaded and were trying to use before you got the vendor ID error?
Where in Australia are ya Bob, perhaps if you're local I could give you a hand?
Imate JasJam upgrade failed - now dead PDA
Thanks for your responses but I have tried everything I have found (apart from the one that fixes it) I can get the colored bars on the screen and it switches to the Upgrade Image screen then the error with 0%

Bob,
can you answer my question.,... what upgrade did you download from IMATE and try and flash your device? what part of AUS are you in?
Sorry about that it's
Rom version 1.31.305.2
Radio version 1.21.31.10
ExtROM version 1.31.305.104
Also forgot, no wonder I can't get the upgrade to use, maybe I should put Linux on it.
I'm down in Goolwa Beach
Also on the screen with the colored bars it states IPL 1.01 and SPL 1.06 If that helps

ok... do you know how to open an mtty session and connect to your device?
Yes I do I've looked into that but don't really know what I'm looking at.
Bob
do you have msn messenger or google talk or something... it will be easier to explain and send files over that
I use Linux but I should be able to get to you. What is your user name?
check your private messages...
I have sent you a private message. Hope it makes sense.
Hello guys...
first of all, excuse me for my bad english...I'm not an oxford student
I got a topaz from a friend to remove the russian language and flash a german ROM.
He knows that I know much about Android and flashing etc. But I didn't know that it will be harder to understand WinMob than understanding Android.
I'm stuck with the Hard-SPL. How I said before, this phone is Russian and I don't understand anything...The automatic flasher gives me this:
"Sorry, the Hard-SPL process closed early due to an error..."
After that, i copied the necessary file for manual flashing into the phone, executed it and started the manual mode, which gives me the 260 CONNECTION error.
Phone is connected and sync. Installing the enabler*.cab didn't help.
I don't know which information you will need. So, I will now write down what I think could be important.
Tricolor-Screen:
TOPA100 32M
SPL-1.33.0000
Under the battery:
HTC Touch Diamond2 T5353 RUS
White field says "USB", I think this is supposed to be important.
So...What do you suggest? I promised him to bring him his new, cool phone tomorrow... I think I can forget that
What should I do now? Thank you in advance...

the following questions will be about the Automatic mode (not Manual mode):
is the only error you get is the early close error, after pressing "OK" for preparing to flash? if yes, what OS version are you running (and is it physical installation of Windows)? and what do you see on phone screen? also, exact error text = ?
Hi, thank you for your reply.
I'm using Win7 x86, not virtual or something.
After "Preparing to flash, please press OK now and wait" I get a Fatal Error
"Hard-SPL is for non-commercial....." It tells me that I used it before, what I definitively did not.
After that the following pops up:
nobody any idea?
I now flashed

Hi, thank you for your reply.
I'm using Win7 x86, not virtual or something.
After "Preparing to flash, please press OK now and wait" I get a Fatal Error
"Hard-SPL is for non-commercial....." It tells me that I used it before, what I definitively did not.
After that the following pops up:

you need to send a ticket at http://support.htc-unlocks.com/ to get a free license (for personal use). note, when you send it, you should get a confirmation email with the ticket number, be sure to keep that.
Alright, I will check it out, but those tickets are for purchased stuff or not?

I'm stuck with the Hard-SPL. How I said before, this phone is Russian and I don't understand anything...The automatic flasher gives me this:
"Sorry, the Hard-SPL process closed early due to an error..."

Maybe you should try different PC as test . . .
USB inside SPL is a bit laggy in the Omega/Ttian.

Hello,
I don't have Titan 2. And other DFT members too.
But it can be another kind of the problem - I don't have TEST/MFG roms for Titan2 seems.
Without them it can be hard to do HSPL.
About AT&T Titan. . . my Titan is AT&T.
Can you make a usb log during installation once more?
Best regards,
-Cotulla
Hello,
Thanks for help.
I will recommend to use progam USBLyser: it has 30 days trial version it should be enough.
Note you should start logging before starting HSPL program.
You may need to increase capture buffer in the settings.
Save log as HTML at the end.
Best regards,
-Cotulla
guys lets get this to cotulla so we can finally be able to install 7.8 in our titan
also he doesnt have a titan 2 to be able to get hspl to the titan 2 we need to donate one to him
i will offer 50 dollars
i hope you guys can help me out
i got this from pzman89
I downloaded a usb logging tool, not sure if this is the info he is looking for or not, but I attached 2 screenshots where there seems to be an error (that happen towards the end of the HSPL installation process). There is more to the log file, however it is approx. 14 MB and in its own format.

Hi All,
Here is a link to my USB Log file, created through USBLyser: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/29307361/hsplUSBLog.html. It is approx 17MB. Appreciate you all taking the time to look at it.
Hello,
Thank you for the log.
But it looks very nice. Like nothing bad happens.
Can you after HSPL installation reboot enter SPL mode and connect phone to MTTY and enter "task 37 debug" and then send output to me?
Maybe it needs more time at the end . . . I will try to make a test version.
Best regards,
-Cotulla
Dude there is no procedure to HSPL HTC TITAN II, so please write correctly about that.

yes we know
thats why we need to send a titan 2 to cotulla
he needs it to build the hspl
pzman89
So I downloaded the program called MTTY (1.4.2), but I honestly do not know how to use it. The first screen that pops up asks for me to choose a com port. I am unsure which com port to choose from. Also, the instructions found with the MTTY program say there should be an option for USB, but I don't see an option for that.
That being said, there were 3 com ports (COM1, COM2 and COM3). Com3 allowed me to go to the next screen however, when I tried to type something in the box that popped up, nothing happened.
can someone help pzman89????????
some times a ilove xda

not really but i would like to help the owners of titan 2 also, now that we have the attention of cotulla and some folks out there might help us out too
if i dont get help with the titan 2 ill donate it from my own pocket
Nice, yeah, I'll help out any way I can. Don't really have enough funds now, but I might be able to donate at least $10 if things really start going. I might even donate $10 just for Cotulla taking his time to look at this, even if it doesn't work.

This version of MTTY requires old usb sync drivers. Search for "Eugenia drivers" (x64) on xda, or probably some other drivers. Also you must disable USB connection in WMDC.
and yes, USB is what you actually must see.
amazing work by pzman89
Hey,
I can't quite remember if I actually sent you my log file for the task 37 that cotulla requested. If not, here it is again: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/29307361/Task37DebugLog.txt
While I know you guys are trying to get this info for dev-related reasons, I think this more properly belongs in the Titan General forum.
guys
general is the graveyard of threads
we will continue this
privately
