XDA O2 Unlock

Hello!
What can I do, if I don't have any cable? (no usb or serial cable)
ROM 3.14.16 GER
Radio 4.21
Is there any chance to unlock?
THX for help!
Kajakarz

Without serial or usb cable? Do you have a card reader? How do you synchronise your xda or load programs.? Anyway what you need is the xdaunlock.exe program, you need to get it into your xda via sd card or beam it using infrared beam from another device, then use file explorer to locate file, tap on xdaunlock.exe then it should unlock.
I just noticed you have radio version 4.21, there are issues with that radio stack and xdaunlock so it maybe best for you to look at the different forum headings and learn a little about this.

HI,
tomorow I will get a USB cable, so I can update the ROM to version 3.19.01 from o2 GER. I would like to use xdaunlock.exe .
Could someone tell me, if it then works?????
ROM 3.19.01 GER
Radio 4.21

As long as you tick the xdaunlock box when building the rom it should work fine after you have cooked and burned your rom. If you use the special edition developers rom it unlocks automatically on first boot after the new rom is burned, however I had to look for the xdaunlock program on my xda when using the kitchen rom, once found I just tapped the xdaunlock.exe and it worked fine. I would advise you strongly to back up your existing rom via the sd card method or using the tools available on the forum before burning a new rom, better safe than sorry.
Your other option is to download the xdaunlock program from here http://xda-developers.com/XDAunlock/ then copy it to your xda, use file explorer to locate where you put it and then tap and execute it from there.

Hi,
It doesn't work. My configuration now ROM 3.19.01 GER and Radio 4.21. There ist no wireless modem application in that version, that' why xdaunlock.exe doesn't work. Is it possible to install Wireless modem as applikation?
If I use "special rom" to unlock, is ot possible to turn back to original o2 rom?

Unlock SIM (Pocket PC Phone Edition)

Hey Guys,
My friend gave me a pocket pc with phone edition. When I tried to insert my sim card it asked me to the unlock code. My friend used this mobile for T-Mobile sim card in US.
Here is the ROM Versino: 4.01.16 ENG
ROM Date: 02/04/04
Radio Version: 6.25.02
Protocol Version: 324e4
After typing my PIN code it asks me to unlok the sim.
What can I do to resolve this problem
Thanks,
bm_t

Try the XDA unlock tool. You can find it on the website.
I have unlocked tmobile using that tool. However if it gives you problems unlocking.... I would suggest installing the xda rom and then try.
I am going to unlock a new Tmobile on tuesday. If this does not work you can get in touch with me on any chat and I will walk you through the process.
lemme know if you need anymore help.
Cheers!
Diki :lol:

Thanks Diki for your reply.
I have tried XDA Unlock and XDA2Unlock but failed.
When I tried XDA2Unlock it reports some error like COM2 0X..... (Hex #)
You have seen my ROM version and Radio version. How do i install new xda rom .
I only have the USB cable. Do I need a serial cable?
thanks

As much as i know, it will not work for you to unlock your device.
xda2unlock is only for the second Version of XDA (MDA II, MDA II,...), so you have to use the xdaunlock tool.
there are several postingsa, that unlocking will fail with your radioversion.
Maybe they have changed the code in this version.
There is a guy (cgigate) that promise he is able to repair and unlock all devices, but personal i don't believe this.
i believe changing ROM will not change anything. But you can try it. Look for the XDA deelopsers special ROM 1.2 or use the 3.17.03 ROM and the unlock tool.
But flashing a device could be dangerous.
Changing the radioversion is also possible, but the risc to end ata paperweight is very high...

Hello LumpiStefan,
Where do I found 3.17.03 ROM. I have tried in your site(Romkitchen) but I couldn't able to download.
http://lumpistefan.dynsdns.org
After selecting the ROM and some additional softwares, I clicked the 'Build Rom Now' Button but nothing comes.

Cooking process works well for me.
Maybe you have to wait a few minutes more.
Cooking process can be up until 5 minutes.....
Otherwise try again the Build Rom now button....

Hello LumpiStefan,
I have tried serveral times but I couldn't able to download the ROM.
Do I have to register or download some other application to download your ROM.
Here is what I did to download the ROM
After Entering ur site LumpiStefan, http://lumpistefan.dynsdns.org
I clicked PPC 2002 and select 3.17.03 with XDA developers (Default ).
and clicked 'Build Rom Now' button.
When I clicked 'Build Rom Now' button, the only thing that changes is the graphs (right hand side of the page). I have tried many times but only the graphs changes.
Did I miss something (some procedures or .....)
thank you for ur time

After clicking cook rom you should have the option to specify where to download it.

Hello,
I have 128 kbps line but couldn't able to download the rom for the site.
http://lumpistefan.dyndns.org/
It doesn't respond the site except changing the cpu ... graphs
Is there any other site to download 3.17.03 Rom for XDA-I.
thanks

You can try http://xda.weblink.net or use http://cuba.calyx.nl/~jsummers/XDA/XDA-developers-SER-v12.exe to download the xda developers ROM based on 3.17.03 including the unlock tool....
I think you're the first guy that has problem to download a rom from the kitchen.
What for browser are you using? Have you ever tried another ROM?
HTH
Stefan

Hi LumpiStefan,
Thanks for ur reply.
I have checked both sites (i.e http://lumpistefan.dyndns.org/ and http://xda.weblink.net)
I have tried also another rom but the same problme. I have tried to download the rom from Linux and win XP pc.
I have aslo downloaded http://cuba.calyx.nl/~jsummers/XDA/XDA-developers-SER-v12.exe
but when I executed this file from my win XP machine ( I have connected my XDA through USB cable and installed ActiveSync 3.7.1) it reports error (something like Unable to find the XDA Please connect Serial/USB cable)
I'm really really stuck with this phone
thanks

it seems that you don't followed the correct procedure.
This link it's a wizard and could help you: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/wiki/UnlockWiz

Hello Folks,
I have seen a post in form.xda-develpers.com that this file http://cuba.calyx.nl/~jsummers/XDA/XDA-developers-SER-v12.exe
will not work because my phone (i.e PC2003) (the adaptROM is not compatible with PC2003)
He said the only option to Unlock the SIM is only using this xdarit.exe application. Since my SD is 8 MB, I can't load the ROM with this space.
As far as I have seen the situation, my only option is getting the serial cable.
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks

SIM Lock
Hi,
Every time I run "XDA-developers-SER-v12.exe" I get a message, error getting data, and then the program close.
plz advise. thanks

'error getting data'
I had the same error. I read somewhere on one of these posts that
there was some capatibility between Programme A.exe and Activesync 3.7.1.
Apparently you could downgrade your activesync version or use XDATools to push the nk.nbf file down to an SD card and flash from there. Use winzip or something else to extract all the files in the SER installation exec. In the English folder you'll find the NBF file to use.
In XDATools put this as the Source, target is the SD card in the device. Go to bootloader utilities (power+soft reset and maybe press contacts) and depending on your bootloader version it may detect you have a flash image on your SD card. Follow the instructions on the pda to flash the rom.

Hi rhodwyn,
Thank you for your support, but still I cannot downgrade my "BootLoader" to "5.15" with every boot I'm geeting "5.22" even after loading the spocial edition ROM.
Also, I cannot find (XDArit & Wallaby bootloader version 5.15 files) in the neet.
Please advice.
Thanks.

Hi ALL,
I did unlock (SIM LOCK) my phon.
Thanks you all for help & support.

Can't Unlock

I tried to unlock and can't. I tried the XDAUnlock tool and the special edition ROM. I never got a message if I wanted to unlock it. I have radio versionA.20.11 Is this the problem? If it is is there easy directions to use.

By XDAUnlock are you referring to the Unlock Wizard in the XDA-Developers Wiki?

Have a look here as well:

When I run the file it does ask me if I want to unlock. However I get an error message unknown deviece type PW10A1 see xdadev_all_unlock.log file for details. Where is that log?

You used the wrong file.
You have to use XDAunlock. Directlink is here:

I tried that many times and still get the error code "error getting unlock code.

Please post you ROM and your Radio Version.
You get this at Start -> Settings -> System -> Device Information
Stefan

Here is the information. I hope this helps me out.
ROM version: 3.17.03 ENG

Maybe it's a problem with the radio stack version.
ROM-Version is the right one.
You could try changing your Radio Version and retry the xdaunlock tool again.
I think you have a PW10B-device (check rear sticker) so you have to use the 6.xx Radio-Versions
Download an Upgrade for your device. RSU Version 6.24.20 -> ftp://xda:[email protected]/Wallaby/Radio_Stack/RSU_V6.24.20_PPC.zip
Extract the downloaded ZIP-File and copy all files to the /Windows directory of your device.
Copy the RSUpgrade.exe additional to the /windows/startup directory.
Make an soft reset of your device.
Place your device in the cradle. Run Active Sync on your device.
The RSU Upgrade will run in the background.
Wait for about 10 Minutes. The upgrade should complete in the background....
Afterwards try again the xdaunlock tool.

Stefan
PS: ATTENTION Flashing Radio Version and/or ROM could end your device as a paperweigth. So it's your own risk....

This link does not work. Page can't be displayed. Is there another way to get the download. And by the way did I thank you for all of your help!!!!

ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Wallaby/Radio_Stack/
Choose 6,24.20 stack zip file.
To log in use "xda" and "xda"

I can't open the page it says this:The page cannot be displayed. Is it not available for a reason?

If you are using internet explorer, once the blank page appears, right click on page and choose "log in" user name xda, password xda.

I tried everything. When I tried the RSUpgrade I received this error. Cannot find 'RSUpgrade' (or one of its components). Make sure the path and filename are correct and all the required libraries are available. Help me if you can!!!!

Unlocking Siemens SX56

Hi,
First off, I am clueless, it is going to be apparent anyway, lol
I purchased a supposedly unlocked Siemens SX56 off ebay which is fully functional except when I put in my cingular sim card it says "SIM Lock: Please input unlock code:
SId:______________________"
So....I am trying to unlock it with a usb cradle using the XDA-Developers Special Edition ROM 1.2, & I cna follow all the steps untill I start to step 2 the release notes, it then opens "Warning 001: Power Adapter Not Plugged In Please plug the power adapter into your pocket pc" I don't have the travel charger that plugs into the cradle, is this necessary?
I also tried the XDAunlock but I don't think my system is new enough for that, b/c after I move the file to my XDA using active sync I can't open it on my pocket pc, it says "cannot find xda2unlock (or one of it's components) Make sure the path and filename are correct and all the required libraries are available."
What am I doing wrong...please help!
Thanks,
Megan

Also..
The Device Info is as follows:
ROM version: A.20.17 ENG
ROM date:05/15/03
Radio Version: A.20.10
Protocol version: 324e4
Thanks,
Megan

Looks like you have used the wrong tool. xda2unlock is for himalaya device xdaunlock for the wallaby...
Anyway. i think this tool is not working with your currently installed ROM Version.
For flashing a new ROM to your device you need the cradle or an usb cable, that also powers your device. If you do not have this, you have to flash the device using the "SD-Card"-Method.

Thanks so much Stefan! I did get the power cord to the USB cradle and was able to download the XDA Developers Special edition ROM!

Please help with old PW10B1

My friend bought long time ago; on ebay. Appears sim-locked.
Now i'm trying to help him in unlocking, i have read lot of treads, and tryed several programs, but still no luck.
Can you guys please help me and advise how to ulock the phone.
Configuration is:
T-Mobile pw10b1
MS Pocket PC v.3.0.12039 (buid 11178)
ROM 3.08.10 ENG (07/11/02)
Radio 6.02
Protocol 324e4
Bootloader 5.15
Network adapters:
AsyncMac1 NDISWAN Adapter
NE2000 Compatible Ethernet driver
PPTP1 NDISWAN Adapter
What I did:
using this page http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wallaby_HT_Unlock2
-Installed ActiveSync from MS site;
-Backup the ROM to SD and to PC using XDATools;
-Tryed to flash bootloader with 'pnewbootloader bootloader_v5_15.nb0' but it returns an error 'Unable to find flash info offset, cannot disable bootloader writeprotect'
?? May be it's because i'm already on 5.15 bootloader?
-then i tried to Install the 'XDA-Developers Special Edition ROM 1.2' but error said that BIOS is for pw10A1, not mine.
?? where can i get Special ROM for pw10b1?
-then i'm tried to go to http://www.romkitchen.de/, but didn't use the ROM because not sure if works (phone is not mine). Which ROM to use, will WM2003 SE work on mine phone? Will it remove SIMlock?
- i'm reading about the XDAunlock program, on web said: Please note that XDAunlock will only work on device with a PPC2002 ROM that has the Wireless Modem feature. Do I have PPC2002? Do I have Wireless Modem?
Thank you in advance for help!
ps is it possible to get unlock-code some where? Upgrading ROM can be too risky (phone is not mine...)

First of all, since you have already backuped the ROM of the devie would you be able to send me the File?
Cocnerning XDA Special ROM. Normally faslhing that should work either for PW10A and for PW10B devices. There is a tool called adaptrom (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=adaptROM) that can be used for flashing.
But I´m not quite sure if this ROM will work for unlocking the device. The Radio Stack of the device is also quite old. But you can give it a try. Securest way for flashing is via SD-Card.
Done this hundred of times already.....
