Cingular 8125 on T-Mobile

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.

Unlock Herald?

Is there any way to CID/SIM unlock a herald?

It depends on where you go i from first. Most people I know have the straight from the factory herald. as far as I know thats all you can get at this point. If no carrier has officially launched it yet(seen a lot of prospecting but I can't remember seeing one on the carrier sites) then there is no need to unlock it, its already unlocked.

sorry to bring the subject up but i'm going to buy a htc in spain where it should be cid locked. Is there any way to put pof wwe rom?
thanks in advance

The new XDA terra from O2 germany will be SIM locked - i guess. How can I unlock. Just like a wizard with awizard?

Do Not flash your Artemis with a different carrier/cooked Rom without cid unlocking

Noobs beware!
As a number have been flashing their devices with various roms not from their own carrier or country or cooked roms and bricking their device - I put up this sticky. Your device must be cid unlocked first before you do this. This applies to the coming wm6 roms to - if the rom is not specific to your device - i.e. if you try to flash the upcoming htc 3300 wm6 rom on O2 orbit - you must cid unlock first - with imei check or you will end up with a BRICK!
This does not apply if you are only updating the os http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299154 or radio.
cid = country id i.e. locked to that country/language/vendor
cid unlock for the artemis is here with USPL http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403 (thanks pof)
or here http://www.imei-check.com/c3unlock.php (costs though)
Bricked devices
If you have flashed your device and not cid unlocked it, your device maybe salvagable if you can get it into bootloader mode.
Hold down the voice speed dial button and soft reset - you should then enter bootloader mode 'multicolored' screen'
If you do, attach device to pc via usb cable (a small usb will appear bottom left of screen) and flash factory rom. (run rom executable or RUU updater from pc) You do not need to be activesynced to do this.

If you cannot enter bootloader mode your bootloader has been damaged and your device will need to be sent away for repair.

You do need the factory rom for your device and then flash it from bootloader mode. Contact the dealer you bought your phone from or htc denmark.

ah for me too little too late.......... still waiting for an O2 rom the bloody bas*ards!!

Whoops!
Just a little too late! Anyone want to buy a bricked XDA Orbit? ;-)
Does anyone here work for the carriers? Can they provide an official O2 ROM to fix out bricked Orbit?

Its only truely bricked if the bootloader is damaged - if you can get into bootloader mode you can salvage with the factory rom.

Well you need the factory rom from o2 - o2 have not released it so there is a problem. I have not found any links to download this rom or a link to a dumped rom. I will ask others in the team if they know a link and let you know.
Did you manage to get into bootloader mode?

Yeah the device goes into the bootloader mode. If you could find out where i can get the factory rom from that would be great. Also if i could have instructions how to upload the rom in the bootloader mode i would really appreciate it.

Unless you have unlocked you're device via imei check - you're device will still be cid locked.

Is there any chance a tool will be released in the future which allow you to unlock your device for free?
I noticed that for other devices such tools are available.

UNLOCKING - the easy guide

Hi everyone.
I have an Orange SPV M700 with WM6, Tengo Free and Tom Tom v6. All working nicely, thanks to all the help on this forum!!
I have one last problem, i have ordered a t-mobile PAYG sim card so i need to unlock my phone for it to work.
I have read the big thread about the CID unlocker and seems some people have been having problems with it uncluding myslef.
Can anyway give me the download that will work or a link to it??? I just want to to able to use t-mobile sim in my phone, but don't want to give orange £20 for privelage.
Cheers a lot guys.

As far as I've been lead to believe once you've flashed the WM6 you should be sim unlocked. That may (assuming I'm correct) be why you've had problems CID unlocking after updating as you're already unlocked.

To upgrade to WM^ i used the three files at the top pf the related thread. Not sure if any of those CID unlocked. Tried a virgin mobiel sim in it and didn't work?

Some phones won't unlock the SIM even with CID Unlockers. HTC, O2 and Voda tend to be unlocked by default; Orange and T-Mobile phones are supplied SIM locked.
I've done the WM6/Radio update and my SPV M700 remains SIM locked to Orange.
I think the only effective way over this is to pay £20 to IMEICheck for a full SuperCID Unlock. Their service is superb if you are willing to pay the price!

Download this and follow the instructions (1 step really) ... http://pof.eslack.org/trinity-unlocker/
Mine is an Orange M700, was SIM and CID locked with original Orange ROM. Ran the above unlocker and could use any SIM on Orangae ROM. Then updated with WM6 and new radio ROM and the phone is still SIM unlocked and SuperCID unlocked. No need to pay any money for this simple thing.

Cool- I'd missed that one! Know he did one for the Hermes
One thing to watch if you are paranoid about Warranties, is that this version works by updating the Radio ROM, which technically is a warranty breach (though as most Orange Techs are so ignorant about these devices, they'd probably not know anyway!)

nice am goin to give it a try

Hi
Check the link on my signature - has SIM-unlocked my Orange UK SPV M700.

what do you mean by unlock?
do you want to CID unlock it? This will let you the custom roms. To do so, use either USPL or HardSPL your phone. Make sure you use the ones provided in the Herald Forum.
Do you want to sim unlock it? This will let you use sim cards of other service providers in your phone. To do this, call T-Mobile and ask them for more information

if u mean Unlock to use with another carriers (SIM Unlock)... sorry, this is not possible.. The only way is imei-check.co.uk
otherwise, if u mean Unlock to use with 3rd party applications, give your device a new fresh look and cool applications, just take a peek on Herald ROM Development and Herald Mobile 6
