Hello,
I'm trying to find a solution for my problem. I've searched the whole xda developers forum but I can't find an answer.
I've unlocked (and unlocked the CID) my T-Mobile MDA Vario with Lokiwiz, how can I put the CID lock back on my Vario. I need to send my phone in with a problem. Anyone who has an answer?
Thank you in advance.
Roy
I've read that cid restors automatically when you install backed-up rom with CIDlock, but I'm not sure when it comes to it and I'm also looking for sb who can prove it [;.
I've sent my phone to HTC for repair without doing anything to CID lock it. I did a hard reset though. I guess it locked itself up upon hardreset or the HTC people just don't borther if it is CID lock or not.
I am thinking about polish mobile operator - orange an its warranty and I know that he cares about cid lock.
Anyway, are you sure, that after hard-reset CIDlock comes back?
You can restore cid by restoring the lock_backup.bin file that was created during the unlock process.
to do that see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/vie...postorder=asc&highlight=cid+locking&start=400
look for britman's post.
Hard reset will not restore cid.
Thanks again ^^'.

I've heard that there is possibility to put back CID lock (after unlocking by aWizard). How can I do this? Is there possibility to not loose warranty (when I back up the whole roms and put back CID lock)? Can service look out unlocking CID, after putting back CID lock by aWizard?
Hi - could you tell us which rom you have and which version of lockiwiz you used. With lockiwiz 0.2b there is a lock option 'L' - run lockiwiz.bat and choose this option

I think that lokwiz is for simlock and aWizard is for CID lock.
Yes you are right L option is for locking sim.

First off, state your problem, second off ALL CAPS IS TOTALLY ANYOING.
To check if your Device is locked, pit in a different simcard (so not a simcard from the same provider but a DIFFERENT one). If it asks a unlock code it's locked.
Second, installing WM6 (probably) requires your device to be CID unlocked.
(here comes the irony) Look up a topic, or use to search function on CID and you'll find allot of ways/solution to un cidlock your device and be able to flash it with whatever rom you want.
If you want to find out if your phone is CID unlocked, download Wizard Service Tools, install it on your computer and then click the CID actions button and it will tell you if you're CID unlocked or not.
So i'm sending my wizard/mda back to t-mo for warranty and i need to relock it (i assume) i have all of the files from my unlock using lokiwiz, but i can't find a clear answer on how to relock it. i looked all over the forum, can anyone help? thanks.
--- I found a method,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285253&highlight=relock
but it didn't work for me... anyone else have an idea? i found no lock function in a menu in lokiwiz as mentioned in the following post unfortunately.
If I remember correctly I saw the lock-function on the menue of the lokiwiz-tool when I used it to unlock ...
Drop it down to buttons 1.05 ROM. Using lokiwiz relock and then reflash it to T-Mobiles original ROM. That is what I recommend so far
I had my ex Charmer to send back to the factory (HTC Europe) to have the rear speaker fixed.. twice. I had the Charmer SIM unlocked and CID unlocked, it went through the warranty check without problems.
thanks guys. and i DID find the "lock" function in lokiwiz, i guess i was goin too fast.
I have a tytn and I used the pof application to unlock the simlock?
For purposes I won't get into, I need to restore the simlock. It was originally with Rogers. I have already restore the ROM, not the radio, and have yet to downgrade the SPL/IPL but will do so after I am satisfied with the restoration.
Thanks
unless I missed something on pof's thread, once u sim unlock then it's always unlocked.
I actually don't see it posted anywhere if it is possible to reverse the sim unlock for warranty purposes...
Is it possible to unlock the device (MDA Compact III) if all I get is the bootscreen with IPL, SPL etc numbers? I tried soft and hard reset and all that stuff I could find here, but none of those helps... I would like to try to flash it, but haven't unlocked it yet so I'm afraid I would brick the device.
All that remains is the three-colored loader, which I can enter without problems.
Any help would be apreshiated...

Hi!
You have to read CID with MTTY and find the proper ROM to flash it back to life or you need to make a Goldcard with another WM device and put it to your device and flash it with an official ROM.

Scootie
So far I have seen posts only about getting the original ROM and flash my MDA with it. Well, since I haven't been able to get the original ROM for my device, I'm trying to cook my own ROM with the same parameters the original ROM should have. So far no success....
In case anyone has T-Mobile Sk original ROM and could share it... It would make me really happy
How to read CID with MTTY ?
Thanx !
Hmmm yeah, i am also trying to Unlock CID of my T Mobile MDA Compact-III and then i will flash it later with WM6 ROM. Being a total novice in this field, i am going through all the posts to figure out how to unlock CID.
And i also could not find original ROM of ma device. The links in the forum are of some tm-phonedownloads, but his site is offline for a long time i guess.
Any ways if u get any luck then pls post here as well.
