T-mobile mda compact sim unlock help - JAM, MDA Compact, S100 General

I know thta there are a few threads on this and I have searched and tried the links etc. I can not get this thing unlocked at all.
I followed the unlock wiz and downloaded the files. When I tried to run them it kept telling me that the mda was not connected properly. I know it doesn;t work when through a hub so I tried eveery single on fo the usb spckets on the back of my pc and got the same results every time.
I only want to be able to use an O2 sim card in this device, although all the other rom upgrades look good I don't really need them.
Can anyone help?
Cheers

tmobile rom HOw to install ?? URGENT

hi there, my mates xda mini on t-mobile was lost on his device as he tried to install a version that wasnt meant for his device, now he dont have any OS as it removed the rom and couldnt install the other, so its a clean device, i have downloaded the rom from the FTP site and i find the file is
tmobile.nb1
how do i get this installed on his device???
im new to this myself and no idea how to do it, i have heard this and that among the forums and i am assuming that you transfer this to an SD card and install it from there, if this is what you do then how do you do it??? is it simple, or is there an extractor i can use to turn it into an installer????
PLEASE HELP,
its not a process for the light hearted, however is it a xda mini your friend has or the mda compact, without the clarification we cant really progress.
All he needs if it is the mini is to install the xda mini rom files, however if it is the compact you will need to do a bit more.
Reply if further assistance is needed

it is the mda compact, what he did was 9as he is new to this stuff0 tried to install an xda2s software to it, and it took his old rom off the device, it then tried to install then he got the error message and would not go any further, now as mentioned earlier, i have the file from the ftp site which im guessing more and more now that i just put that file on an sd card, and flash it, only thing is, it mentions something somewhere i read that you need to copy files from the old rom which he dont have and i dont have access to. what do i do, as he is going to india for 6 months in 4 weeks and if he sends it away for repair he wont get it back in time... and im his only hope as it happened to me, only thing, i have xda 2s and im on o2, so i just got the rom from here, which was an installer from the pc through the usb connection...
please help!!!!
So I can assume that the screen just says serial on top and v1.00 at the bottom, ie the bootloder screen, if this is the case there is some hope however you will need a few tools and some patience
ntrw
romupdate utility
SD card reader / writer
at least 256MB SD card
once you have that, just follow the instructions for the ananasky ROM update, however the rom that you will be patching is the tmobile.nb1 one on the ftp site, or you could go ahead and try the anansky patch itself
as before let me konw how u are progressing

WM2005 messed up my Audiovox SMT 5600. Help!

So i installed WM2005 on my phone and now i get
device authenification failure....
please contact the product manufacturer. For reference please provide your device ID.
3546110002736801
68000050bf3f5173 8un
(yeah i know it's all my fault)
now i don't know how to get back. the only thing i can get to is the bootloader screen and i have a couple of roms but the only one will work with the mtty program that communicates with the phone are .bin files which i ddon't have. Any ideas guys? I kinda just want my phone back.
i am really confused as to why it doesn't work. maybe it's because its for the c500 only. but looking at this link
http://msmobiles.com/news.php/3848.html
there is one for the audiovox.
did you try to run the normal upgrade when the phone is connected via usb in BL?
i've tried the uk update but it says i need to be connected to activesync. boing to go buy a card reader today to try backing up from the sd card.

Please help me unlock!

Hi to everyone
I have an xda (i believe its a wallaby) modelpw10a1 ram64mb. I want to unlock the unit, but have no idea where to begin.... i did follow peters advice for unlocking an xda 2 via the cradle/activesync/disable usb port method but nothing happens (apparently windows should recognise new devise)
is there a program i can run to unlock the xda1?
Another thing - i have just moved abroad to Thailand, the local gsm network here is very good so it shouldnt make any difference once it is (hopefully) unlocked?
Thasnks in advance

problem downloading it
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=UnlockWiz/Wallaby
Stefan, thanks for the link. The problem now is that when i click on the link, i get a 'authenticode' warning pop-up that stops me from downloading it.... licsence could not be found etc etc.
Any clues?
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/uploads/XDAunlock.exe
Sorry, its the above link that wont let me download.
the link works just fine for me
Frustration
I managed to get the unlocking file, and copied over to my xda... but the first thing it says when i open it is 'error getting the unlock code'
Is there another file i can use? Am i using the wrong one?
tried this one?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=24779
Massive frustration!
I cant believe how hard this is. Have been on it all day! Everyone else on this forum seems to be unlocking easily, am i doing something silly here?
Thanks for the latest link Rudegar, but im having the same problem - it wont open. On clicking the link, Im asked the usual ''run file from current location or save to disk'' either one gives me the following error message;
''the publisher cannot be determined due to the problems below.....''
''authenticode signiture not found''
''access to the specified device path file denied''
So in short, i cant open it.
My friend sent me the XDAunlock zip file, i transfered to my XDA but it came up with
''error unlocking sim''
So thats obviously the wrong file for my XDA...
I read that the XDAunlock only works if it has the wireless feature? How do i find out if i have wireless or not?
Sorry for sounding so clueless here, but really i am not to sharp with this sort of thing. Ive allways used my XDA happily till i moved abroad, now im buggered if i cant unlock it!
Someone please help!!!!
i think the link i just gave to the allinOneUnlock thingy requires to be run from the pc while the xda is connected to activesync
tried that
Rudegar, appreciate you sticking with me here...
No, its not a question of the cradle being connected or not im afraid, i tried that allreeady with both the cradle connected and also disconnected. It just wont have it, im totaly lost!
by cradle do you mean that you have tried with
the xda connected to activesync as in being connected after the sync is finished ?
or have you tried the xda connected but activesync not connected ?
have you tried another sim card to make sure it's still sim locked ?

UNLOCK MDA COMPACT II / HTC CHARMER / PM200
Just wanted to confirm that i've had sucess unlocking my mda compact II (htc charmer). Followed shoptillyadrop instuctions and they worked a treat. Thanks for help.
Only, one comment to your instuctions - line 2 you wrote wizard rather than charmer.
Thanks again.
Will the SIM Lock be restored after I have performed a hard reset?
Thanks
Nase
No,
the Phone will remain unlocked. If you want to re-lock your phone, the same tool will do the job.
Regards.
Thanks for your quick reply.
The procedure sounds very easy so I will give it a try this evening.
Thanks
Nase
You are talking about NETlock, not SIMlock for a specific number (Prepaid), right?
I want to buy a MDAc2 from T-Mobile but have to use it with o2.

Yes that is what I would like to do.
I guess that the Unlocker will remove any lock. Am I right?

PM200 UNLOCK PROBLEMS
HAVE USED LOKIWIZ VERSION 1 ,WELL HAVE USED THEM ALL WITHOUT SUCCESS ITS DRIVING ME MAD PLEASE SOMEONE HELP
GET''AN ERROR OCCURRED MESSAGE
THANKS
I've done it without problem. You list out your procedure done to see if we can help.
Hello. I had problem with my Mda Compact II T-Mobile UK. After I input Pin ti told that: Data Crashed conntact Your Service. I went to imei-check.co.uk and payed 20 GBP and in 5 minutes my Mda Works as a new one. Its the best way to solve this problem and problem with simlock too. Best regards !!!
A lot of people have unlocked their Charmer with out any problem. And there are at least two (including myself) who has flashed the Charmer ROM as well. Good if you can list out your specification and procedure that you have used that messed up your Charmer.
Usually, when you have the error message "Data Crashed conntact Your Service Provider", it means that the IMEI area has been messed up. And, the only solution to this problem seem to be to go to the imei-check.co.uk
Hey guys.
I have just got a Tmobile MDA Compact 2.
I cannot unlock it though.
I have tried V0.1 and V0.2b.
When my simcard (O2) is in the phone, it just asks you to enter the unlock code, and won't let you access any menus.
So I remove the SIM, install the EnableRapi.cab and then insert the Sim card. And click lokiwiz.bat on the PC whilst Activesync is running, I select U (have tried C aswell on V0.2b) and it doesn't show any errors, the phone resets, but the lock is still present.
Does anyone have any ideas ???
Unlock not working on my Charmer
Hi Guys!
I have followed the instructions carefully und copied the file EnableRapi.cab to my charmer, executed it there, made sure that Charmer is connected via ActiveSync, opened the file lokiwiz.bat on my PC, and waited until Charmer rebooted!
After reboot I inserted my SIM Card and the Result was a window that asked me after typing in my PIN for a Network Code!
I have tried all the Versions on the Unlock page, none worked! I have deactivated my AntiVirus Programms and Firewalls!
My Charmer is (still) locked from T-Mobile Austria! All I receive on my PC in the same Folder is an Output File called "Unlocked" which I cannot open with a program on my PC!
Thank you very much in advance for your help as otherwise I have to unlock it via Internet and this would cost me 30 BP!
;-)

lokiwiz probably wont work on AKU2 roms because the OS is more protected. check your versions, Windows Build 14847.2.0.0 is AKU2.

that's exactly my version too...
can you keep me updated if there is a version that can unlock this type ?
thx !
Look what abzee wrote on: http://forum.xda-developers.com/sho...ght=could+not+update+itsutils.dll#post1039958
it took me 5 minutes to remove the lock using his instructions.
Thanks to abzee and of course to machinagod.
I used Lokiwiz03 yesterday with my Charmer. The Charmer is the german MDA Compact II with T-Mobile Netlock. It takes only some minutes. It was very easy to use-no problems.
Great Work and a very great thank you!

2 questions?

Hi guys I have 2 questions,
1: I have a MDA Compact 2 that has customised firmware by my employer, some application automatically install when its first turned on after a reset , I have just bought a second one as a spare, is there a way of cloning the firmware from the first one to the new spare?
2: is there a way of using the MDA as a Modem on my pc? We have web and talk but wool prefer to get internet via my laptop?
thanks
1. What brand are you in? T-mobile German, Czech? Which one?
2. Flash wm6, there is an easy way of sharing the MDA Compact II internet connection for PC.
its T-Mobile UK, i cant risk going to WM6 becuase of the mod's by my employer, it runs custom software.
If its been modified by extended rom only to install custom software/settings etc then you can just use Total Commander and browse to \Extended_Rom\ then copy all the files out of it. then on the other device, skip the original customization by soft reseting when its says its about to start, then install the list of extracted cabs from the business device.
For a bit more involved, you can take all the extracted files, build them into an image and then flash them to the other device overwriting the tmobile stuff so they'll always be on there.
If you pair the laptop with the phone, it should detect the presence of a bluetooth modem (not on AKU 3+ tho) which you can then use on the laptop as a new connection dialling *99#
Hi thanks for the reply, I have followed the instructions from here,
http://www.htcwiki.com/page/Use+my+MDA+as+a+Modem?t=anon
but I am having a problem, when it says select access point name I do have any to chose, it just says none?
Any ideas
i have tryied ot on none but it dont work
I think its general.t-mobile.uk
but it wont let me type anything in?

no it wouldnt, it should contain the list of connections already presence on the device. i dont have an aku2 anymore on mine so i cant check it out in more detail.
