Unlocking MDA - MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading

Hi all,
I have MDA (XDA) from Austrian T-Mobile with ROM version 3.13.12 GER. I would like to unlock my device but I am not sure if this ROM-upgrade will work with my device. Can somebody give me a help?

There is no reason why it shouldnt work. Make sure you back your existing rom by sd method before proceeding.

You need to get XDA2Unlock, just go into the right forum.
But it's quite easy. I did a unlock real fast. took me a few minutes (it was brand new, so I didn;t need to make backups.)
Go to eh unlocking it forum

The best ROM for unlocking your MDA I is the english 3.17.03 SER (Special Edition ROM) which has the XDA-Unlock tool built-in.
Then i would recommend a cooked version of the German T-Mobile ROM 4.00.33 with some nice Tools already included...
If you can't find the ROMs, I can help you to find them ;-)

o2 xda neo / on the edge of panic

Hello everyone,
I have on order a o2 xda neo, I was told by the salesman that
the manual and os were in english.
I have now found out that the neo is a german version of the
i mate jamin. I feel very stupid.
What does this mean in real life terms? Will it have a german
interface that I can't read? will I have to flash the os?
anyone?
thanks,

O2 XDA Neo
Hi.
I have O2 XDA Neo too, it's one week now. It's from Germany so everything was completely german. I flashed the RUU_Prophet_2151327_21513121_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship-NoVendorID.zip from here, it's english version.
But first, try to search for english localization of WM5. I you won't find it then flash the new ROM. The problem is, there is no solution to go back to O2 German ROM nowadays for IPL, SPL version 2.15.0001. You will surely get the new version. But in month or two, there will be tool to unlock the phone to be able to flash lower versions of ROMs. Read the forum, it's priceless source of information.
Thank you Median for your reply, I have heard many horror
stories about flashing ROM,but if I have to I will, So what your saying is
the ROM on the OS is different from the WM5 and that I have to flash both.
I appreciateyou taking the trouble to answer me.

The file is the Dopod's ROM, it's newer version then O2's and includes english WM5. Flashing was abslolutely no problem on my Neo. It takes about 10-15 mins to flash. Some say 30 mins, but for me it was quick. And the best thing you can do when flashing ROM - don't watch it, it doesn't like it. You know, it's intimate time for the device

1) Do you have to CID unlock your Prophet before flashing to the Dopod Rom?
2) What was your SPL / IPL prior to flashing?
3) Does flashing change your SPL / IPL?
4) I have Orange SPV M600 with IPL 2.10.0001 / SPL 2.10.0001 and someone told me that i need to CID unlock first to be able to flash ROMs.
Is this true?
5) Also i do not see the M600 original ROM available for download, how do i go back to orange ROM if need be? Will it be possible if orange made their ROM available for download?
Pls help.
I've just flashed my O2 Neo bought in Germany, ver. 2.09.0001. I used the ROM available in the forum,
RUU_Prophet_2151327_21513121_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship-NoVendorID
and it worked FINE. GREAT! I bought the telephone unlocked in Germany from O2, didn't needed to unlock CID. My GSM card from my brazil operator worked fine. Wifi too.
Thanks, I will try the Portuguese ROM now.
I have a question, if I flash the O2 neo to english version, the home-zone function will be lost or not?
It will be Lost but u can install the homezone needed files from the ext.rom afterwards. These Files should be available on the ftp Server.
AND:
I did also upgrade my German O2-XDA NEO to the mentioned Dopod rom - And you can also go back to the (older) Neo Rom later.
I do not know why but it is possible to downgrade from Dopod to the newest O2 rom, maybe because both are 2.15.x.x.?!

Hi ...
If you had unlocked your Device with IEMI Check, and everything was fine, and you sure that your device is now CID unlocked, than try T-Mobile original ROM (should help) IF not? So ... Welcome Here

That's strange... I thought that you should be able to flash any ROM after unlocking, not just the original German one. Maybe something went wrong during unlocking? I suggest that you send an email to those guys from imei-check, maybe they can offer you a solution.

I've just sent email to imei support, look:
Hello,
you only can get it back to life with an O2-XDA-German-ROM (which odes not exist right now).
The other option is to send the device to repair (service centre).
The unlocker can NOT work in case your device has a malfunction (it is described in DETAIL that the unlocker requires a working ActiveSync connection on the our web site where you purchase the unlock).
Regards,
IMEI-CHECK Team

I apologize for you. My orbit was originary German and locked, so I'm unlocked it with imeicheck utility, so I was installed a HTC wwe ship rom. And yesterday I has a problem with powermap rom. Now I've solved with TMobile rom, I don't know if working because my Orbit was CID unlocked (I belive no, because if now i try to install htc wwe ship rom I've wrond ID error message..) Do you have try to install via bootloader mode? enter in bootloader, so double click on tmobile rom.
bye
2 jokkk3r im using dopod shipped, im quite happy. its +-new dev. it'll take some time till here will be some roms or at least tools for cooking them.but most im waiting for is extrom unlocker like is for universal,thar U can use it like a storage

Backup Original ROM

Hello to all
I think that what I am about to ask is not possible (I read it some wehre but I can't find it now)
I have an HTC TyTn with a Portuguese ROM on it and I am thinking on trying the WM6 BETA ROM (I am superCID and not by Crack)
Is there any way to backup the original ROM from a TyTn device????
I would like to keep the original ROM just in case and Vodafone PT doesn't supply it...
thank you to all

the wiki is a good source of information
I am also thinking about trying out one of the WM6 ROMs but would like the option of downgrading to my UK T-Mobile ROM (1.21.110.3) if I need to for any reason. I've had a look through the wiki info and found a page that contains a dump of my current 1.21.110.3 ROM but it states:
Dumped or Modified Roms Available For Your Hermes
NOTE: It is NOT POSSIBLE to flash or replace the ROM on your device with one of these.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So is there anyway to downgrade back to 1.21.110.3 ROM if it's not possible to flash or replace my Vario II using the dump?
If I was to follow this reconstruction guide does that mean I'll be able to flash my device with my original ROM that I dumped from my Vario II?

Dutch T-Mobile MDA Compact III to English!

TylerDurden1337 said:
I've been reading the forums, but I cannot find the solution to my problem. I just bought my T-Mobile MDA Compact II (HTC Artemis) in Dutch and I would like to change the language to English. I've read there's a T-Mobile ROM UK, but where can I download it? And how to install? If I connect to the FTP server the folders in Artemis are emtpy except for the EXT Rom folder. But the size of the rar's is a little low, not like I experienced with updating my rom on my Magician before. Those rar's were about 40-45MB. Anybody wants to help me please! If the thread is allready open somewheren, I apologise, please PM me then...

Edit: I read some more, got little more information, did some things. Yesterday I sim/CID unlocked my T-Mobile MDA Compact III trough imei-check.co.uk (respect for this guy!!), and now I can use it with my own carrier. Now that the simlock and CID lock is gone, I would like to change/update the rom to an English version. I don't mind the T-Mobile ROM, I only care about the English language. If it's possible to put an HTC ROM on my device, I would prefer that, but not completely necessary. What ROM should I use, because I heard that the Dutch version is the only one WITH an WiFi chip? Can someone point me in the right direction? In the FTP account I can only see the ext rom, I found this rom: HTC_1.12.405.01_026790_WWE_SHIP. Should this work with my current configuration?
query
i have exactly the same problem and the same question .
did u did it or still looking
i read all the wiki and most of the thread .but no solution.

Hi PMUSA
all the answer to your questions are in the forums.
Just search the topics.
You need USPL to load a rom from here that is not designed firstly for your phone..
ok magpie2000K, thx, i already viewed this topic about USPL:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403
but nothing about SIM unlocking
moreover, i would like to know where i could find a WM6 for my SPV M650. I have the Shap's HTC Tytn ROM on my external hard disk drive, will it also work for the M650????
because in the topic it says:
"This means you can flash ANY ROM to your Artemis after flashing USPL on it"
thx for your precisions
pmusa
well that's because no one has been able to come up with a way to unlock it yet (atleast none for free). you'll find two ways to sim unlock your phone here, if you'll just browse through the forums in artemis upgrading topic. but you'll have to pay for it via paypal.
about the wm6 rom, you can find one in the topic artemis mobile 6. there's a thread there that's especially started for french spv m650 users. sorry i can't post the links though, but you'll find them easily enough.
pmusa
here is the link for the sim unlocking (not for free)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=314154
and for wm6 for spv
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=313713
i also have spv m650 but i couldn't get my gps to work with wm6, eventually i returned it to original spv orange rom.
i hope yours will be okay.
thx redski.
i'm installing, i'll leave a feedback.
so, currently, there isn't any other way to SIM unlock the SPV M650?
the only one is imei-check? 30€, omg...
maybe HERMES sim unlocker v3 should work, i'll pray and try. ^^

please let me know if it does, and also if your gps works after upgrading to wm6.
thanks!!!
so, i upgraded to WM6 using Tom's BnB ROM, because i heared it supports GPS on SPV M650, but... i forgot to test it! (lol :S) I was'nt satisfied because it was too skinned, virtualkeyboard skinned too and QWERTY, so i "uninstalled" it and moved on Official HTC's ROM for the P3300. But the GPS currently doesn't work on HTC rom.
So now i am going to download Orange's latest ROM and flash it, i will also apply htc_default.tsk theme because Orange's theme sucks
...
Is someone working on how to unlock the Artemis with a software like lokiwiz????

...Pof, Perjan and many other good men were working on a software to SIM unlock...perhaps possible CID Unlock the ARTEMIS, but other demands in life - exams, work around and very many things made the effort die a natural death....
I can only advise you not to wait up for it.
Go the previous ways advised - I would hassle tupisdin, if I wasn't given a free code to SIM Unlock mine - For SIM Unlock
...and the USPL developed by pof empowers me to flash..so I don't need to give imei-check.co.uk any more money.
sorry, i did'nt understand. do you mean that i should contact tupisdin so that he could give me a free simunlock code?
or do you mean that USPL also simunlock the artemis?

There is no free simunlocker for the Artemis. The Lokiwiz thingy does not work on this model. The USPL only cid-unlocks your device temporarily so that you are able to flash another ROM, but it does not unlock the sim.
ok now it's clear.
30€ is too expensive (imei-check)
who is tupisdin and how much a simunlocking costs?
thx

I don't know, so why don't you ask him? There is a thread called Sim Unlock when you scroll down a few lines. That thread is made by tupisdin.
