anyone interested?
thanx

I am! I have a Orange M500 rom for you to play with.. I have unlocked my phone don't know if that is a problem?
thanx, it's not a problem.
I wold need some locked and some unlocked.
ideal would be, if one has got locked JAM and do the Radio ROM dump. then once unlocked, do the dump again.
how to dump?
enter bootloader mode and in mtty issue command:
d2s 60000000 00300000
this will dump radio rom to SD card.
after that the SD card needs to be read using winhex or psdread.exe

First Radio Stack is coming.... ;-)
It´s from a T-Mobile Compact, unlocked.
Radio Version 1.12.00
ROM was GErman Version 1.12.01
HTH
Stefan
Perfect Stefan,
those two, which I have are 1.12.01GER as well (T-Mobile)
I think, i've found something in my dumps, now I need to compare them with others ;o)))
Hoffe, es wird auch stimmen...
well, I myself, I don't have a JAM, but want to get the rid of that horribly expensive unlocking service...
such stuff must be free of charge... ;o)))
Thanx for help

...a colleague of mine bought JAM - locked...
and he was about to unlock it. so i've made a dump before and open it in winhex...
and I just looked at the dump and straight showed him a location in it and I said 'here's the lock'.
then he came back with unlocked, and indeed, it was different at that exact location...
it looks to me, that the IMEI stuff is just such a fogging mambo-jumbo around it
Buzz,
Are you willing to share your knowledge with the rest of us?

all the knowledge so far, is above ;o)))
Oh right ok- early excitment i guess!
Could it be as easy as changing certain hex values?
I'm not really knowledged in this kind of stuff, so I will let you get on with your work!

hi buzz,
the second one
T-Mobile Compact simlocked
Radio Version 1.12.00
ROM German Version 1.12.01 bigstorage
shine on
I guess you are aware of the claim that "Ricardo's ROM" unlocks the SIM.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=24469
I've also read the R-magician thread...
I would try it if my phone was back from the repair centre
But I sure will be careful about byte modifying as that's how I seemed to render my JAM useless (aka a brick).
OK, it was just solved by itsme...

get the unlocker there...

Hi,
Im looking at upgrading from the Magician to the Wizard on T-Mobile.
Please answer these Q's for me:
1) Is the Remote assistance any good over WIFI?
This function would be really good for me so please post your experiences with it.
2) Is it easy to unlock?
I done searching but cant find much.
3) What ROM should I install on it?
I put the IMATE Jam one on my Magician, but what is the best one to use on the Wizard?
Thanks alot.
Greatly appreciated/
MC_Bob
Even if you can only answer one Question please reply.
I would like a reply asap
Thanks alot.

I'm not much help for you but I will say I never could get WinVNC to work on my phone. I haven't tried any other method.
WinVNC isnt the defualt that comes on the phone is it?
Thanks
Unlocking is easy as long as you don't have the latest ROM installed. Some people have apparently downgraded their ROM to an older version, unlokced the phone (SIM and CID) and then you're free to upgrade to any ROM you like. Check out the big threads on Lokiwiz for more info.
As for what ROM to choose, I've just installed Mr Clean ROM and am very happy with it (see current threads in the Wizard Upgrading topic). He's also done a T-Mobile variant, if you want the T-Mobile stuff added (inc skins) but I personally put in the really clean version and then added just the MMS/GPRS/etc T-Mobile setup stuff, as I never liked T-Mobile's colours much.
One hint - if you want more replies, use a topic subject that's a bit more specific than "I need help", or peole just won't read the thread. Let us know what you actually want to know!

Mr bob - if you are getting a brand new t-mobile vario chances are it will have the new G4 chip which can only be cid unlocked via http://www.imei-check.co.uk/ for a cost of approx £30 or so. You can tell if it has a G4 chip by looking at the ipl/spl numbers when it boots up. If it has a number ending in .001 then it has a G4 chip.
There is a free way to upgrade your rom that does not update your ipl/spl see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=56088
You can sim unlock (but not cid unlock) a G4 chip enabled device with lokiwiz 0.3a
Why not wait a short while and get the varioII aka hermes\tytn? Better specs than the wizard.

I've avoided the custom ROM's because there seem to be too many issues reported, and I haven't found the standard U.S. T-Mo ROM to be a problem for me. Doing some tweaking, including overclocking, has made this device very useful.
Follow the instructions here to bypass loading the T-Mo extended ROM:
http://www.lvlolvlo.net/PDA/MDA/FreshnClean.htm
You can then add each CAB individually to your taste. This author suggested that you must load the items in red, but I only added four of these and my device works fine. In fact, for a while I didn't have any of these CAB's loaded, and the only thing I missed was SmartDialer.
I don't use any internet features except wifi (freebies, not T-Mo hotspots), so I left most of it out.
Cheers, phone come this morning and im in the process of doing this stuff
Hey guys,
The newbie with too much time here...(again) , I got a few questions due to a prob i'm havin. i Just bought a T-Mobile MDA from eBay for my wife and need to unlock it for cingular. i followed the procedure as I did with my 8125 however it won't give. i repeated the steps to ensure i did it just as advised and the result was the same. Upon looking over everything in frustration i realized that it had already been loaded with T-Mobile ROM ver. 2.26 . So my questions basically are as follows:
(1) does the fact that it's got a more updated rom mean i need a newer version of lokiwiz than 02?
(2) what the frig do i do to get this bugger to where i can go back the "simple" process of unlocking and loading the new titanium rom?
and finally...
(3) If i am doing something wrong can someone guide me in the right direction with a few "parently words of advice" for my new adventure?
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Wolfdragon
NVM!!
I goofed i overlooked a earlier post that showed that the rom can me CID unlocked by unlicking the SIMlock with the new LOkiwiz3 then downgrading to an older Standard rom then running the old Lokiwiz2 then ur free to load whatever floats ur boat(as long as you remember there is still the possibility to "Brick" ur device, so take care). And enjoy being part of the biggest and best PocketPC blog on the planet...XDA-DEVELOPERS.COM(this message does not represent the views of the xda-developers or it's affiliates, though I'm pretty sure they feel the same )
Is there a upto date reliable 100% working guide
to unlocking the qtek 9000?
I have it on the THREE network and want to put a O2 sim in it!
How do I get these unlock codes, surely that's quick way?
I can't find anything that I know is up to date and reliable.
Can't we have a Sticky Guide to this subject?
Help!!
Ironic isn't it?
I have an 02 XDA exec on 3!
Anyway, what you need is on the link below mate.
Clicky by here like innit?

I don't understand this step:
15. Flash your original Radio ROM. Do not upgrade the bootloader until you restored an original radio rom.
How do I do this? This is what I'm finding extremely confusing.
Remember I've not done this before, so really need a newbie guide, not a guide that assumes I already know about this!!
Help!!

Yeah! thanx
Ok, if the IPL/SPL is only 2.16 no further 0001 like 2.16.0001,then its a G3 device,but if its 2.16.0001,then its G4.Note the last trailing three 000 and 1 at the last.
The difference Between G3 and G4 is the last trailing three '000's and 1 at the last.

thank you for the reply, have done scrolling down the links, got the answers. It was kind of you!marivik
nice thread
hi! thanks so much for the responses and feedback. this thread is so important for me, a newbie!
i've got a simple question, i hope someone of the users in here can provide me an answer. my IPL/SPL are both 1.01. therefore my device is G3,
the question are as follows:
1. Do I still need to downgrade with Button ROM? bearing the fact my IPL/SPL are already 1.01
2. Do I need to use Lokiwiz 0.2b to unlock my device. It is mentioned that 1.xx IPL/SPL are necessary for the upgrade process. since they are both 1.01, do i still need to do this?
3. Could anyone recommend me the "latest" and most less buggy ROM for me? i am very new to this, i really want to have a successful flash.
i will try flashing my device after this response. thanks alot
thanks a lot guys

Your phone has already got IPL/SPL 1.xx,therefore,there's no need to downgrade with Button's Rom,its essential to have 1.xx for SIM/CID unlocking.
YUP ! as your phone is still SIM/CID locked,so you'll have to use lokiwiz02b to SIM/CID unlock it for onward upgrade to wm6.You can also use WST_4.2.2 tool also to SIM/CID unlock the phone,but remember to have IPL 1.xx.
Just follow the guide posted in my above link to understand it correctly to unlock and upgrade.
Check out the 'Wizard Mobile 6' sub-forum for latest wm6.1 Roms.It all depends upon your own choice.
Good luck and happy flashing

zadardast thx a lot for your response. i was so excited yesterday, so i couldn't wait to flash it right away. however, with my lack of common sense... i upgraded my device first to the latest ROM available on clubimate.com

knowledge (and common sense) is power, wish me luck wish the flashing
I downloaded and tried installing Faria's Windows Mobile 6 today, it failed exactly at 99%? Help please! All I then got was the red green blue screen. I am not sure how I managed to restore Windows mobile 5 back on the phone, had to kill some wcescomm.exe process again and again and got lucky I guess!
My cell phone is unlocked and I don't think I need to get anything unlocked, just need help on finding some decent Windows Mobile 6+ tom
Imate K Jam
IPL 2.16/ SPL 2.16
G3
got it, my phone is cid locked, have to unlock that first, will try Faria's update after that
