I have just got a mda wizard vario and just wondering what is the best rom to update to, i have sim unlocked it but to update the rom i need to cid unlock it as well dont i thanks for your help.
yes you need to cid unlock ...best rom... latest i-mate one.
When i got the Cingular 8125, and before I did the ROM Upgrade to 2.17.7.2 WWE, I did the recommended CID Superunlock. As far as I could tell everything went great. Unlocking this phone, to me at least, meant that I would be able to use it on other non-Cingular GSM networks. A little bit ago a friend who is on t-Mobile needed to use my phone to make a phone call. He put his sim card in my phone and gave it a shot. When the phone started i was getting an error message about a network being locked. I do not remember the exzct wording.
Any ideas if this implies that the unlocking procedure i did di not work succesfully? or am I missunderstanding what the unlock procedure is meant to do? Is there another unlock procedure to make this phone usable with other providers other then Cingular?
Thank you
The CID unlock allows the installation of firmware with a different "brand" than your hardware was sold as. It has nothing to do with the GSM SIM. Use the latest version of lokiwiz to SIM-unlock your phone. Do a search for lokiwiz and read up on it.
use Lokwiz to SIM Unlock it. CID unlock allows you to flash other Roms.

Yupe.... I did what 'Kyphur' mentioned to used my Tmobile card in my Cingular 8125. I bought Cingular because I like the 'Square' compare to the round design that vario have.
Has anyone tried lokiwiz on the new MDA vario rom for t-mobile UK? any issues?

it is supported by JAFWM, it is not free but it works 100%
koolhand79, I just unlocked my cingular 8125 with the following setting without any problem:
IPL 2.25
SPL 2.25
GSM 02.25.11
OS 2.25.11.1
Make sure you use lokiwiz03a.zip and follow the instruction precisely. Good luck!
did you CID unlock this as well?

Cingular ROM update following SIM unlock
I have already SIM unlocked my 8125, If I update to the latest cingular ROM will the SIM remain unlocked ? or will I have to re-unlock it ??
Hi all...
Back when I was using the 8125, I went through the sim/cid unlocked and was installing the various ROMs out there.
Then I got the 8525 and had to activate the new sim for Cingular's 3g (rendering the old sim unusable). Obviously the new sim is locked but can I still use it in my 8125 to upgrade the ROM in it? I'm thinking of putting WM6 on it and test it out.
TIA!
