Hi There,
I have an I-Mate Kjam in the UK which is running 2.16.0001 which i think is a G4 as the Wizard Service Tool states its a G4. It has WM5 and want to have WM6.1 or 6.0. The phone i think is unlocked as i have used 3 other sims in the same phone from other phone suppliers. What do i need to download ro upgrade it as i have been reading all the forums on here and just dont have a clue which download i need as i dont want to brick the phone
I am also runnning Vista 32Bit but have XP pro if i need to use that to upgrade
Thanks
Chris
You are in the G4 forum,but still can't read the 'Stickies' at the top of this thread 'SoftSPL' or 'HardSPL', read the 'freakin' stickies.

To upgrade to wm6 rom,its required to have a CID unlocked phone,but a G4 phone cannot be CID unlocked like a G3 device,therefore,through these two methods,a patched IPL/SPL (Bootloaders) are flashed to a G4 device,tricking it to believe that it is CID Unlocked (SuperCID) Semi/Temporarily,to upgrade it to wm6 or wm6.1 Rom,got it ? Read the Stickies for full details, if you are looking to upgrade your phone
Just tried the Hard SPL for G4 everything go's ok until the ROM Update Program in windows trys to update then i get a windows box popup to say the ROM Update Ultilty program has stopped working

i think u should try to flash ur rom in xp rather than in vista
vista is suck, in some way.
I got an Omnia and there are different .exe for vista and XP to flash new ROMs
is there a problem to flash my TP on Vista 64?

I also have the set up and have not experienced a single problem. flash away!!
I can confirm that too!
Why bother? You can flash directly from your SD card.
Vista 64 works no problem for just about anything you will do with your TP
thanks folks.. already flashed the new radio...
everything ok!
my battery is draining a lot
dont know what to try..

Which OS is installed on your laptop. You have not installed the drivers. After you tell me which OS you have and it's architecture (64 or 32 bit) I may be able to point you further.

I created an account just to reply to you. Yes there is a way.
What I did was use VMware to run Windows XP
I had to use an older version of the unlock tool - the latest unlock tool open but not run - the older unlock tools ask you to upgrade. The one I used was a 2.something
Once I figured that part out, it unlocked immediately - first try.
Hope this helps

Understood - I wasnt able to find anyone with a MAC solution as you have to run the MiUnlock tool
As far as I know, there is no way to unlock with a MAC - Windows is a must. The whole unlock process is pretty poor with this phone imo.
You can try it on Wine, but I never hear anyone who actually use the unlocking tool on Wine running on Mac or Linux distros.
Your only proper solution is to grab another PC running Windows and use that tool there, or emulate Windows inside VM like on posts above.
