hi all, i have a little problem unlocking my XDA
first of all my PocketPC is a TSM400 and it is mysteriously identic to XDA. I think is the same model with a different name cause distributor company (telefonica Spain). I have a 3.18.10 ESP ROM version (08/15/03) and when i try to unlock it i got a "error getting unlock code"
any idea?
should i update the rom?
will i have any incompatibility problem?
thanks!
If indeed it is the same pda I would suggest installing xda developers special edition rom 1.2 AFTER you have backed up your existing rom using sd method. This should unlock your pda automatically on first boot after burning the new rom.

I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news here, but that statement keeps getting thrown around yet its a false statement.
Its not the ROM that is stopping the Unlock, its the Radio stack. as i found out yesterday.
After i had upgraded to the special edition, it still returned a "Error getting Code" message, it was only when i upgraded my Radio stack to 6.24 was i able to unlock the phone.
But then, because i now had the wrong radio stack, i failed to get a signal until i had downgraded back to 4.21, Only then was i able to place a call and get SMS through.
Indeed the Phone does look exactly like a XDA,
So first thing for people with a tsm 400 to do is find out what hardware versions they are on.
Could i ask that both peachy_212 and elessar pick there PDA up and do this
Click Start on the today screen
Navigate to settings at the bottom of the drop down list
tap the SYSTEMS tab along the bottom row of tabs
And then device information
You should have
ROM version
ROM date
Radio version
Protocol version
Then click the next tab over (Hardware)
If it is a XDA it should say something along these lines
CPU: ARM SA1110
Speed: 206mhz
RAM: 64mb
FLashsize: 32MB
Flashchip type: 28f128
Databus: 32 bits
LCD :240x320 TFT
Colors: 4096
ALso what would help is the next tab over from HARDWARE, (Identity)
Give the model number and platform from this section, DO NOT GIVE OUT YOUR IMEI NUMBER ONLINE,
Could you reply with what version numbers and hardware info to confirm that it is indeed a XDA
Then maybe we can help

Dear Manipulator developers,
I have a XDA simlocked to O2 and need your help for unlocking cause it didnt worked by now!
If i hold Power Button and press the softreset there comes the red green blue screen with:
Wallaby Bootloader V5. 14
GSM OK
if i put in my serial cable(bought on ebay) and start the Manipulator..there stands:
GSM turn on
already on restet....
and then it disappears and there stands:
"GSM turn on
sucsess..
ok but in the software there stands :
Status: ready
sidlock : <none>
Gidlock: <none>
IMEI: some numbers
keep first 8 digits is hooked
call timers: zero
no reset button anymore cause i pressed it allready!
if i startet the program the first time there was no "unlock button" just reset button..
now there is notthing to press??
what must i do?
if i start this software it founds the xda on com 1!so everything seems to work!??
please help me!
greets
Daniel
PS: i can change the numbers in the field "IMEI" but that is dangerous or not my imei is my phone id!?
oh what might be important:
i have not done an "autokonfiguration" for O2 network..cause this is downloading the smart menu stuff thet i dont wanted..
have i to do this autokonfiguration to use the manipulator correctly?
or has it nothing to do with the autoconfiguration of my mobile phone?
please help me i am as far as before!
PS:i think this Forum is getting too big..maybe the chifs of this great site could make categories for the forum?!
like "tecnical questions-hardware questions-software questions and so on..
one more question..
if u read my post above u see that i am trying to unlock my simlock on O2..but now..i thought about it..what is if this what stands there (simlock : <none>) is correct!!?? i dont have a simlock?!maybe..look i can use a D2 simcard..all works fine but!:if i loose networksugnal..i have to turn off an on again the mobile..cause otherwise it would stay without neworksignal the whole day!..my question:do i have a simlock??
or wouldnt it be able to use any other card if i had a simlock to O2?
pleas help!
Spiko
From the above I would conclude your phone is indeed not SIMlocked, but you are experiencing problems related to Radio Stack version 4.14. The answer is to upgrade to 4.16 or 4.17, which both exist and are floating around, but haven't been offered as official upgrades yet.
But if i put my xda in bootloader moder there stands version 5.14!
if i reet it normaly there stands 3.14? which is my radio version?
wher can i get a new one for germany?
can i upgrade via dockingstation?
Version numbers
There is a whole bunch of version numbers associated with the XDA:
The Microsoft PocketPC OS version
The HTC software version (3.00.01 through 3.15.something)
The Radio Stack version
The protocol bytes
The Wallaby Bootloader version
Each version number represents the version of some different part of the software. Your bootloader is a separate thing with a separate version number, not related to the rest of the ROM. Your bootloader could well be present before the device gets a plastic casing and is told whether it's going to live a life as an O2 XDA. a T-Mobile MDA or a Siemens SX56.
A certain HTC version will be built based on a certain release of the PocketPC OS, with all the HTC specific drivers and additional (O2 or T-Mobile) related programs added.
The Radio Stack version depends on the software loaded into the GSM part of the device, and can vary independently from the OS. There's different versions depending on whether its a 900/1800 (Asian/European) or 900/1900 (American) phone.
ok but where can i get a update for a german xda?can i get it free without paying in an O2 shop?
Where can updates been found?and how do i upgrade my rom version?

Hi All,
I have been reading the Forum for about 2 months before having my 32MB RAM o2 XDA (U.K.) in hands.
As I am no developer but have some experience with WinCE since its first Habdheld appearance, most posts are Greek to me!
I intend to use my XDA with Vodafone-Greece, but first have to SIM unlock it!
ROM: 3.12.07 ENG
ROM date: 08/13/02
Radio: 4.06
Protocol: 32S54
PW10A1
Questions:
1) How to simply unlock it (USB cradle & OS Win XP Pro)?
2) First upgrade and then unlock or vice-versa?
3) Upgrade to previous to last (v3.17 + 4.21) o2 versions? Have read reports of problems with these. Any link to the older ones?
4) Mind you, I have no idea how to resolve any possible problems with Jeff's SE ROM 1.1 which is on my HDD!!!
5) Local settings to be applied afterwards, manually (?)
Deep Waters ahead ?
THX for any help,
Gear
No really deep waters, I guess.
Just run Jeff's SER exe, it should go in fine, and that makes the PDA part much nicer, and it's pretty risk-free. It will notice, upon cold-boot, that you need unlocking, and offer to do it for you.
We always advise against upgrading the phone part unless you're having some problem, since there seem to be risks associated with the process. Having said that, 4.06 is old, and it's likely you'll be happier with 4.21, but that's your own call. Be sure to upgrade the phone after unlocking, just in case. (there are reports of the unlock not working on 4.21, we haven't had time to look into it.)

Hi,
I tried the XDA unlock software.
After transfering and runing it on my XDA, I received only this message: "error getting unlock code"
Any advice would be highly appreciated...
cheers
golf
what version of roms are in your xda?
you can find this under: settings - system - device information
Thanks for your quick reply.
My ROM version is 3.12.07 ENG date 08/13/02
xdaunlock will not work with wince-3.12, you need at least wince-3.17
manupulator depends only on the radio rom. it works with 4.0? - 4.20
That was very quick, I am impressed!
My radio version is 4.06, protocol version 325S54
I found the manipulator, but this seems to require a serial cable.
My XDA only has a USB connection. Any advice of what to do?
many thanks
Hello,
I hope you can help me, I know there. I tried to use Manipulator to unlock an xda but after finding the xda on COM1 the status message just remains at 'getting data from phone' and beside SID and GID it says 'ERROR'.
Nothing shows beside the IMEI. My device info is:
ROM: 3.17.03 ENG
Date: 15/5/03
Radio version: 4.21.00
Protocol version: 32S54
Please help, Thanks
Aide
Aide,
sorry I do not know what to do.
My XDA is still locked and I am kind of lost myself.
If you hear something, please let me know.
all the best

If you use The Manipulator: Did you all tell ActiveSync on the desktop not to use the serial port?
If you use XDAunlock.exe: you know it only works on O2 3.17.03, Qtek 3.16.52 and Special Edition ROMs ?
Thanks for the reply.
I tried the xdaunlock. which does not seem to be working with my 3.12 version.
Regarding the manipulator: I thought that only works for serial cables?
In your message "manipulator" was posted in orange color, but on my PC it doesn't work as a hyperlink?
Is there a newer version available somewhere without the serial cable?
many thanks for your time and effort.
I would really appreciated it, if we could get this up and running again.
cheers
Oh, Like an idiot I went and read all posts AFTER I had posted my 'problem' . Not a problem at all 'cos xdaunlock did it with no time wasted (it's O2 3.17.03.)
Problem solved, Thanks xda-developers you guys really are the GREATEST!!! (now if they could just tell me where to get a replacement touchscreen for the other one that broke...mumbles the ungrateful,greedy wretch :wink: )
Thanks
Aide
PS Golf why don't you list all the steps you've taken so one of the more experienced guys can spot where things went wrong? and detailed error messages.
Aide,
congratulations in getting your XDA up and running with help of the developers.
Following your advise, here is what I have done so far in my attemp to unlock my UK XDA.
My ROM version is 3.12.07 ENG date 08/13/02
My radio version is 4.06, protocol version 325S54
I have downloaded the xdaunlock software and received the "error getting unlock code" message after running the unlock program on my XDA.
I have not downloaded the manipulator because of the warning on the webpage that you need to have a serial cable before downloading.
"Do not download or install The Manipulator unless you have a serial cable already, and need to reset the call counters or change the IMEI on phones with Radio software prior to 4.20"
I do not have a serial cable.
very much looking forward to any advise to help me out of this.
all the best

It says that XDAunlock only works on ROM 3.16.52 or later, bascially all ROMs that have the Wireless Modem functionality. Backup your data and install Jeff's exe holding the XDA-developers Special Edition ROM v1.2, and you'll be happy.
Thanks for your advise.
If you don't mind before trying this, let me please verify some issues.
I would like to use my Orange Sim card, but Orange is not on the UK provider list on the webpage. Is that a problem?
Since 1.2 version canot be downloaded simply, I need to do this Mkron installation, which requires unix? How complicated is that for somebody who has not much IT skills at all? This part of the website sounds rather complicated to me?
There is no download link here. As mentioned at the beginning of this page, our Special Edition ROM is based on the 3.17.03 O2 ROM, and thus contains all sorts of software that is copyrighted and for which we probably have no permission to distribute. So what we're distributing instead is a kit called 'mkrom', preloaded with all the files needed to make your own Special Edition ROM image, provided you add an O2 ROM image for the kit to modify. To run the kit you need access to a unix machine with some software installed. Take a look at the 'mkrom' page for details.
If you're no computer wiz, and still want the Special Edition ROM, you'll have to wait for someone else to run 'mkrom', and share the output with you. 'mkrom' outputs a binary image file (with '.nb1' extension) for use with our XDA ROM Image Tool and an SD-card written from the PC, as well as as an nbf-file with the correct checksum, for inclusion into a 'Programme A' package that people can install using their cradle. If you're lucky, whoever creates the installer you use to flash the Special Edition ROM into your device will make the flash utility self-extracting and use our new 'adaptROM' tool to make sure you never have to mess with model numbers, languages and checksums
many thanks

G`day everyone,
I have just brought a new SX56 siemens from the US. I am in Aus and would like to use my existing provider. My problem is the SID is locked and I would love to get some help here.
I have tried XDAunlock.exe and received an error (error getting unlocked code). Any help would be great.

I think you should be able to install developers special edition rom, this will unlock it automatically. Before doing so, back up your existing rom using sd card method, then you can go back to where you started but with an unlocked machine.

Thank you for replying so quick mate.
But using the developers special edition rom is something im afraid to get into if something goes wrong.
Also im not familar with compiling etc.
Then again I havent given special edition rom a chance.
Just not confident playing around with the rom.
Ps. Reading about XDAunlock.exe seems alot easier to manage and is my rom version to new to run with XDAunlock.exe?
thanks again cruisin-thru.
The XDA Manipulator will unlock a phone, if you can have a serial cable (Easily purchased - approx. $10).

Yes I know that the XDA Manipulator will unlock the phone but i read that, this can be of high risk. Also i havent read that anyone has the same rom version and used XDA Manipuilator.
You dont need to know a thing about compiling, just download the exe file, after doing sd backup. Run it on your pc and it will do its thing.

I first want to say thank you to xda-developers for such a great site. I have been on here reading for 2 weeks now and decided I finally need help. I recently bought me an HTC HD2 Euro version (all white home keys). I proceeded to set it up to dual boot Windows 7.5 and ICS. I was successful thanks to everything I read here and watched on "Youtube".
Well, I was partially successful that is. I have had 4 different WP7 roms and one ICS/sd rom.
All the WP7 roms installed with no hitches as did the ICS and all opened up successfully.
Here is where I need some help with all 4 WP7 roms I get no T-mobile data and no mms messages. I really need my data to work. I get everything except "mms" to work with wifi; IE, xbox live, and the market.
I currently have WP7 rom "HD2O_2.02_8779" installed.
Phone Info:
Name: HTC HD7 T9292
Model: HTC HD7 T9292
Software: Windows*Phone 7.5

Radio hardware version: 0.0.0.0
Bootloader version: 0.96.2250.0
Chip SOC version: 2.2.5.0
When I setup "CustomRUU" to check the radio version and maybe flash a different radio, no current radio shows up. So my first question is,
Is it possible to not have a radio installed at all?
And if this is true is that why I can't get my data to work?
I have reset my phone.
I have turned my data off and on.
I have used "Connection Setup" at least 3 times on just this rom.
I have used wifi.
I currently do not have an ICS rom on my data card because I want to wait until I get WP7 working properly first. I already fried one 16GB class 10 sd card that is why I am using an 8GB sd card now. So if anyone can help answer my questions I would so grateful. Thanks in advance.

Did you download connection setup from the market or using the preloaded one?
Did you try manual selection in connection setup?
Do you have data connection on in settings?
Try manually selecting Network in.settngs.
Soft Radio for TMOUS is 5.51T.09.29a.22.32.50.10U...that is what I have on my phone running BTTF. The 5.51T is for the U.S. You didn't specify what region you reside so I'm assuming U.S. based on your English or maybe British.
Hardware radio is A.12.0.D4 which is 2.15.xx.xx version in my signature.
Anyway, you should see a hardware radio version. Otherwise, you should flash the appropriate hardware radio.
There are threads telling how to rescue locked sd cards.
still no data, no radio showing up
1. I used the preloaded connection setup.
2. Yes, I did the manual selection.
3. Yes, as I stated I have turned data on and off trying to get it to work.
4. Yes, I manually selected T-mobile in "Cellular"
Well I want to make sure I choose the correct radio for an HTC HD2, the europe model not the T-mobile model with red and green buttons. Mine has white buttons.
I also have the radio set to -region: North America.
and yes I am in the US in Florida using T-mobile as my service provider

I suggest you post your question in HD2O's rom thread and specify which country you're located and the fact you are using the European model. People using the rom should be able to give more help.

Well I would put this in the phone development section but it says all questions belong here in the Q&A section, so i don't want to ruffle feathers and get flamed for not following the rules so I'll just leave it here for now. Maybe a mod could move it if he thinks it belongs there. I am going to wait until morning to continue working on this problem, I'm too tired to anything now. Don't want to make a sleepy mistake and brick my phone. Thanks.

no radio showing up, low sound
Well I finally made it back a couple hours ago and I have been reading ever since. I tried to post this in the rom section but because I don't have 10 posts I can't and no one else has responded.
Since I left early in the morning (about 3am) I tried my phone and found I have almost no sound coming from it. It could be the radio but I also have read many of these roms have sound volume problems and they have a fix for it. I think I am going to try flashing a radio and see what happens. What ever I do I will post back here.
I just installed 2 different radios and nothing shows up in the settings phone radio section. It still has 0.0.0.0 for a radio. Think I'm going to install a different rom and see what happens.

data works with ICS on sd card
I decided to go ahead and install an ICS rom on an sd card and see if I get data and mms messages with it. I decided to use "NexusHD2-ICS-CM9-HWA-SD_v2.3" and within a few minutes it was up and running. To my happiness all my data works including mms messages. In fact I did not find anything that did not work, even live wallpapers and this is on an sd card. Another great job by the members here at xda-developers.
Back to facory Windows Mobile 6.5 rom
Still trying to get this phone to work with Windows Phone 7. I tried going the task 29 route and then installing Windows 7 rom but that did not help to get any data on my phone from T-mobile in the USA so I went and studied how to take it all the way back to a stock Windows Mobile 6.5 rom and was successful. I have data on the phone but I can't get mms messages to work on it, but that is still better than what I have been able to do with WP7.
I got the rom right from HTC.com "RUU_Leo_S_TMO_HR_3.14.119.1_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship". Notice that it has the same radio 2.15.50.14 as what most people recommend to use with WM7 roms. I used this Video on youtube for directions

First I want to thank for being the only one responding to my thread and posts as I have posted in another thread too. I am sincere when I say that. I really liked what you said in the thread you sent me to, that you would explain how to do something unlike others here. That means a lot to people who are asking for help.
I think there are too many people in forums who forget what it feels like to be a noob at anything. I am a member at many forums going way back to modding Motorola Razors, flashing Dishnet boxes before they locked us out, fixing red ring of death Xboxes and so on. So sir, I really do appreciate those who are here to help not just flame those asking for help.
Now back to the topic. I used that rom from HTC.com/europe because I have an HTC HD2 euro version not the HTC Tmous phone. Mine has the all white buttons and I wasn't sure if I could flash the T-mobile Windows Mobile 6.5 stock rom. As this phone is only 3-4 weeks old I am trying hard not to brick it. That is why I have spent 12 hrs a day for the past 3-4 days doing nothing but reading this site.
here is the link to the stock Window Mobile 6.5 rom for the Europe version.

If you know whether I can use the T-mobile stock rom in my HTC HD2 Leo then maybe I will try it. I am also going to try the unbranded stock rom from the same link as they have one for both T-mobile and not T-mobile if that makes sense to you. Trying not to be confusing.
if you read that radio thread, they say it can be used on the European hd2. and yes, i know you have the european hd2.
finally got mms messages with stock WM 6.5
For my latest trial I downloaded and installed the WWE (World Wide English) stock Windows Mobile 6.5 rom that HTC.com/europe has. Here is the name of the second rom.
RUU_Leo_S_HTC_WWE_3.14.405.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship
Here is the name of the 1st stock rom that I tried and mms messages never worked. The first set of numbers are different. Not sure what they stand for.
RUU_Leo_S_TMO_HR_3.14.119.1_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2.15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship
Here is the link if anyone needs it.

This is the first rom I have installed that gives me data and mms messages. So now I know that this hardware radio works with t-mobile USA network (in Miami). I just need to find the correct software radio for Windows Phone 7 and I will be as happy as can be. I might even try T-mobiles stock rom today also.
still testing with mixed results.
I am back on Windows 7.5 now using pdaimatejam rom. I replaced his original software radio with 5.51t.09.29a_22.32.50.10u and also with 5.51.09.11a_22.31.40.09u. I got excited because these both gave me data but after a few minutes my data quit working. Neither allowed me to send or receive mms messages. I am still testing and will give any updates or results I come up with. What is odd is I am using the same Hardware radio 2.15.50.14 that is in the stock Windows Mobile 6.5 rom that let me have data and mms messages.
Just a quick update, I tried the Back to the Future [XBmod-Yuki][Updatable] rom and did not have any better luck. Still same 0.0.0.0 radio and no data or mms. I did have some fun installing the rom. Learned a lot about installing cabs and such. I usually get an error when I install the HTC connection app but not with this rom. I don't think the app is helping do anything from what I can tell. Going to try adifferent rom tomorrow to see if I have any better luck.
tried another rom, same results
I flashed this rom yesterday.
RUU_LEO_HTC_Europe_5.12.401.01_Radio_5.71.09.02a_22.51.50.21U_NT_Tango_8773_3La_V3_by_ansar
I still get the 0.0.0.0 radio and no data or mms. I also flashed a couple different hardware radios after I installed the rom, but still got the same results. I think I am going to change the software radio in the rom and then flash it again and see if it makes a difference.
