1st off, let me say how great I think this forum is. I apologize in advance if this topic has been covered, but I've searched here and can't find it.
I was given a T-Mobile PW10B1 with the following device info...
ROM 4.01.16 ENG
ROM date 02/04/04
Radio 6.25.02
Protocol 324e4
I need to unlock it to work with Cingular. It currently has no SIM or SD card in it, although I've ordered a SIM card that I should have by Friday.
When I put XDAULOCK.exe on it to run, I get the "error getting unlock code" message. When I try to flash the ROM using XDA-DEVELOPERS-SER-V12.exe, here's what I get in a DOS window..."ErrorGetConnectionType An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host. Error getting connection type".
The pda WILL sync up, but can't copy these files over.
Is this enough info for anyone to offer suggestions? Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

This ROM only allows downgrading to another ROM via SD-Card.....
Instructions for this you can get here:

This may be your next problem. This Radio Version do not work with the xdaunlock tool. You have to downgrade Radio Stack first Instructions can be found here:
http://lumpistefan.dyndns.org/tools/manual2_unlock.htm
Have you already checked if the device is really locked?
I would suggest that you wait for your sim-card and try it, before you reflash your device....

Thanks
LS,
Great info-thanks! I'm not sure if it's truly locked or not. How can I tell for sure? Right now, I'm on an OLD TDMA phone/plan, so when I'm SURE I have it unlocked, I'm upgrading my plan to a GSM plan. So the danger there is, if I have to have Cingular try to activate my new pda/phone, I'll have to change plans first, and if it's not unlocked, I can't use my old TDMA phone!
I think I'll get as SD card and try the 1st suggestion, and try to leave the radio alone for now-what do you think?
D
You can borrow a SIM-Card of a friend of your. The process just took a few miuntes. Insert the SIM in the Wallaby, start the device, enter SIM Code and watch the display. If you get connected to the network all is fine. Otherwise, when you have to insert a SID-Code, the phone is locked.
For unlocking you have to follow the process described in the second link. First link is just for changing the ROM....

Hi guys.
I tried unlocking the CID with Lokiwiz0.2b but keep getting the error249 invalid vendor ID problem.
I updated my KJam with the latest iMate ROM thinking it had A2DP, but found it doesn't. I now want to flash the Qtek test WWE ROM which does. BUT after running Lokiwiz and selecting option C and then trying to update the ROM I keep getting the message.
I have tried unbundling Lokiwiz again in case it was a problem there, but no joy.
Any ideas anyone? or has it anything to do with the new ROM that maybe Lokiwiz can't address yet?

Your solution is to downgrade to the previous kjam rom, then cid unlock, then flash the Qtek rom.
Just run the K-JAM_WWE_1010903_106_10110_ship.exe upgrader to err downgrade. ;-)

Tried doing that but I can't downgrade. The RUU says says I must get an up to date version. I recall when I loaded the new ROM it said I can't go backwards afterwards.
Does anyone know how can I do that?
don't know if this would work but have you tried bootloader mode?
unable to unlock CID for my Imate Kjam
Can any one help me to unlock CID for my Imate Kjam.

Hi i see yours is G4.
the way i CID Unlocked my wizard to install WM6.5 is:
I Downloaded SoftSPL ( it Temp removes the lock )
--- http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=50344&d=1189619527 --
So after you downloaded that unZip it and inside there will be 2 CAB files.
move the CABs to your phone:
Cert_SPCS.cab )install on Phone 1st(
EnableRapi.cab )install on phone 2nd(
:
After you have installed them
Move The Rom you want to install into the SoftSPL Folder And Rename the ROM
nk.nbf
Then make sure the Phone is connected to Pc via Cradle/Cable
Then Just Run START-sSPL.exe (inside SoftSPL folder on pc)
tick and next on the screens that come up and then you mobile screen goes White (Dont Worry) then it will load rom you will have a bar on Desktop that loads to 100% .. just Let it finish then mobile reboots and you should be fully loaded with your copy of WM6
Hope This Helped

First of all THANK YOU all of the Great Minds of XDA Developers for all the support and great work you do for us!
a lot of your work, support and software and advice has been priceless help!
Any way no ass kissing here, just wanted to say thank you. ...and ask for help. As you probably know, there has been a lot of problems and issues with Prophet. (and very little or NO support and from manufacture and from providers. and there is not much available from xda developers forum users on this device. Though there has been great amount of support on any other devices. which has made me a happy user of Magician. But to cut it short, PLEASE HELPPPPPPP with Prophet!!! I can't reflash my XDA Neo with new WWE rom due to CID (vendor ID) error! It comes with german rom and I don't read german but love the phone! (and stuck with 2 year contract!) I tried aWisard utility numerus times in hopes that it would work despite the design for different device. I tried all kinds of roms available out there with no luck. and ofcourse HTC or O2 wouldn't help in any way! (different O2 support
techs said to me that I couldn't flash my Magician with WWE rom becouse it would kill the device! And I had it flashed in all the possible languages!) Any way, my magician is now a history (sold) and my new prophet is great pain in a ass!
Do you guys think you could help all of the xda community (and unlucky suckers) out here and help us overcome CID error so we can update/change our roms? (and screw the HTC, Qtek, Imate and O2 for such a poor support!)
I would greatly appreciate it! and it goes from all of us!
hi aleksandr
Just go the link below and follow the instruction to unlock the CID.
I just upgraded my 818 Pro to JAMin ROM, run very smoothly.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=37386
Hi, thank you very much for the reply! I did try this option but I have a little problem with Wisard program. I ran all the commands, enabled rapi,backed up my rom, ran unlock CID command, it returned "success" line, but when I try option -w- to write new rom into my prophet and get to "select OS rom file" where it saids to enter numbers only I don't know what to enter in the command line since the program doesn't have any roms listed in the command line screen. I've tried entering the rom release number, I even tried renaming rom to a number and I have placed the rom nk.nbf file in all the possible folders including "rom" in the program directory. but stil, once I hit enter, the command line window shuts down. could you advise?
and I did put the aWizard folder and rom file in the root directory on c:... tried d: too... stil, no result
Hi Alek,
Try this....
You now have a device that is CID unlocked, exit aWizard and locate the downloaded RUU update you now wish to load to your device. You should not need to use aWizard to do the flashing, just use the aWizard program to unlock the CID from the device.
I too have a Dopod 818Pro and I successfully flashed it to the new I-Mate JAMin ROM. All I used aWizard for was to unlock the CID on the Dopod 818Pro then exited aWizard and just used the downloaded RUU update.
Regards,
voyager
Thanks voyager, I guess you're very fast typist :lol:
Hi aleksandr,
Did you did an ActiveSync with your Prophet first then run the aWizard? For me I just run aWizard to enable RAPI and unlock the CID on my 818 Pro. Then I just double click on the latest JAMin ROM exe file, it detect my 818 Pro without any problem.

First of all thank you guys for getting involved and helping! I really appreciate it!
well, I tried just to CID unlock it with aWisard, got "successful" message and then I ran about 10 different upgrades from different providers, qtek, Imate, etc, and still got the wrong vender message!

I usualy ran after sync, since the aWisard said it has to be fully ran. I will try it now!
Thank you! hopefully with all of your support I'll get the nedded results! Thanx!!
ok, just tried enable rapi with active sync off, the aWisard reopened and reastablished connection, but it still not finding the rom file.
wait a minute, does the rom file has to be in .nbf format or .nba?!
I'm looking right now for Extend Tool (64HTC Extended ROM Tool) and will convert the rom rom to nba file and see what happends.
man, I wonder how it worked for you just running unlock CID command and upgrading with the upgrade file!
Alek,
You already unlocked the CID from your device did you not? Your first post said you got a success message.
Put your device on the cradle or plug in the usb cable. Let ActiveSync do its thing then after the sync just double click on the RUU update you want to install. Follow the install wizard (NOT aWIZARD) of the RUU update. You do not need aWizard any longer to update the ROM, just use the RUU update you downloaded.
post if you need further help.

I've tried that several times and its still returnes the error!
Alek, one more thing ... you do realize that by doing this, you will wipe your device clean (hard reset) and you will need to load everything from scratch. If you use a back up program like Sprite or SPB backup YOU CAN NOT USE THAT BACKUP once you do this!!! You will be loading everything from scratch.
Just letting you know!!
voyager
OK Alek,
Tell me EVERYTHING you have done up to this point. I need to know what device you have, what ROM is currently on it and what ROM you want to flash with. Give me 5-10mins and I'll check back....lets try to get this resolved for you tonight.
voyager
yep! I do know this.. thank you though! I had an experience with Magician on that but I guess it's not much help with prophet though!
I haven't installed anything on this device yet.. just played with ExtRom, unlocked it and deleted O2 staff out of it just to see if I can do it But I do want to get the right OS in here first and then I'll worry about the rest of programs..
you guys wouldn't happen to have Extend Tool (64HTC Extended ROM Tool)would you? I'm visiting my family and I'm on my brothers PC dont have all my staff with me,and can't seem to find it on the XDA FTP
:?: What 64HTC Extended ROM tool are you referring to? If you're on your brothers computer do you have an ActiveSync connection to YOUR device? If so, is all synced up with your Outlook profile etc...?
First I need to know which Prophet you have (Dopod 818Pro, I-Mate JAMin or Q-Tek S200).
First let me say this, if you have a Q-Tek S200, I don't think you are going to be able to upgrade the ROM. I have seen several threads here that indicate that somehow Q-Tek S200 is permanently locked and that the aWizard program will NOT work on it no matter what, (or at least until some geneius here figures it out
Please let me know

Hey, thank you so much! I really appreciate it!
ok, I have XDA Neo, German Version
rom 2.9.4.30 GER
rom date 2.14.06
protocol 413.1.03
ExtRom 2.9.4.120
First I have unlocked ExtRom with Wizards Utility
Then I tried to reflash the device to WWE rom with different upgrade utilities from different venders, tried Qtek s200,it didn't work, reterned wrong Vender ID error, then Imate- same result, then Dopod, using diferent RUU wizards, including Wizard Rom Upgrade Utility NoID.
still, no luck..
then I tried aWizard,
first I ran Rapi enable
second I made a back up of my own rom,
then Unlock CID,
then tried writing rom using aWisard, didnt work, aWizard doesn't finds any roms(and the program and rom are in the root directory of c
then tried just unlocking the CID and use Upgrade Wizards again, still, no luck!
tried praying, that didn't help either!
thinking about beer now! But I don't think that would help either
I did sync with PC and outlook.. activeSync4.1
I even tried flashing it with Danish rom, that I couldn't install it either..(I've read on XDA that flashing danish rom first than and only than I could try it to put WWE in to it. well, that didn't work either)
I tried running all possible rom upgrades that are available, and always got wrong vender id error.
even after aWizard reported that my rom was unlocked!
so I have no Idea what else I can try!
may be getting drunk and "sync it in the toilet"!
If we get this to work, you owe me a beer!!! OK, here's what I need you to do...
1) I tried researching this board for any signs of the O2 Neo being permanently locked like the Q-Tek S200, could find NOT anything. (edited, could NOT find anything)
2) Do you have a copy of the I-Mate JAMin RUU update on your brothers computer? If so great, if not, go get it. Try the latest one that came out yesterday.
3) Once you have this I-Mate JAMin ROM (save it to the Desktop for easy finding later) let me know.
4) Also, make sure you have ActiveSync 4.1 and it is set up and you have synced at least once with it. It doesn;t matter at this point what PIM info is on it since its going buh bye ina while, I just need it synced with a REAL partnership, not Guest.
Let me know when you have all these things done...
voyager
you've got the deal on bear! all you can drink! I'll bring you the german staff on my next visit to states!
any way, got it all! Imate jamin rom and sync has been done!
OK,
1) do a soft reset on the device. Once the device is fully up again, plug the usb cable in and let ActiveSync do its thing.
2) Open aWizard. Run the Rapi deal again. After that run the unlock CID.
3) If you get a success message after the unlock CID, CLOSE aWizard.
DO NOT UNPLUG THE NEO FROM THE USB!!! Let me know when this is done.

SO Then i downgraded the rom and tried to unlock using lokiwiz 2b.- Still did not work.
I do not know what i am doing wrong. But yet, i found one thing that i missed a step, that says ".do not forget to copy the cab file(enable rapi) to your device and run it before running lokiwiz. "
So now i am not sure if the enable rapi file needs to be on the phone or the computer. If it needs to be on the phone- how and where do i ned to have the file at?

Hi All,
I am new to windows Mob interface and read several threads on how to install cooked roms.
I have 1.48 ROM on my HTC HD2 Leo and need to upgrade it to 1.66.
Can someone please guide me through in how to go about it or post the link (if i have missed any) of any thread that has the tutorial?
Most of the threads talk about flashing a cooked rom but i simply want 1.48 migrated to 1.66?
Any pointers be appreciated.
the process is the same for cooked or official.
is there an upgrade for your phone? you failed to mention is it provider locked?
1 - instal hspl2
2 - run the 1.66 .exe
3 - done.
if you have a provider locked phone, and have the correct update, you can skip step 1, if you have a rom unlocked phone (not network unlocked) then get the htc wwe 1.66 .exe and also skip step 1.
read the stikies for how to do it,. but really all you do is run the progs, press ok when it says.
Hey thanks Sam.
My phone is not SIM LOCKED, tht implies i need not install any HSPL/HSPL2.
All I need to do is ,
1. Download the 1.66 ROM
2. Active Sync my phone
3. Run the exe downloaded.
4. Hard Reset my phone.
Please correct me if i am wrong anywhere!

It ony implies it, it doesn't confirm it.
sim lock and rom lock are unconnected.
If you sim unlocked it yourself, by buying/getting a code, then the rom is still provider locked.
If the phone came sim unlocked, then it is a good bet it is rom unlocked too.
All I need to do is ,
1. Download the 1.66 ROM

yep, thats right. Because you are flashing over usb, it wont affect the SPL, but it will change the radio, so if you want a different radio, you will need to do that afterwards.
Thanks for the info.
My phone was unlocked when it came and was not any provider locked.
All i am looking for is a higher ROM version. Wann try HTC Leo with 1.66 ROM.
Bingo.....
I have upgraded it to 1.66. Thanks for your help
