XDAunlock needs no serial cable
You can now use XDAunlock to remove the SIMlock from phones with the latest ROMs (Qtek or XDA-developers Special Edition ROM).
Users that install the Special Edition ROM do not need to download since XDAunlock is included and ran at cold-boot. Users of Qtek 3.16.52 ROM click here.
Using XDAunlock you can also view the SIMlock code or re-lock your phone (using command-line arguments).
[I attached the EXE for easy downloading. Works on any 3.x ROM that has wmodem.exe]
Excellent work! True brilliance
I'll be testing this real soon. All I have to do is find a unix box....or will linux do aswell?
Chiani
a windows box with http://www.cygwin.com/ unix tools will do too.
make sure you select perl and bash in the cygwin setup tool.
xda unlock
i have recently downloaded the xdaunlock.exe and transfered it to my xda but an error occured.
the error message was: "error getting unlock code"
could this happen because i have the german version or where can i find a data which is working on my german xda.
Or is it enough only to change the language
It says on the page: XDAunlock only works if you upgrade to a ROM which also has the Wireless Modem feature. Presently, this is either the new O2 English ROM, the latest Qtek ROM, or our own XDA-developers ROM, of shich a new version is due out later today. Given the number of irritating issues some people are experiencing, you may want to wait for the new one, which will fix all these issues.
Special Edition ROM now official unlocking method
I've updated the Manipulator page to say that we no longer advise anyone to download The Manipulator unless they already have a serial cable and need to reset call counters or change IMEI on pre 4.20 phones.
Installing the Special Edition ROM is the preferred method for unlocking from now on. Sell your XDA serial cable company stocks today.
Just use this excellent proggy with my XDA which was locked to O2 took 2 seconds to unlock with just this proggy and its now unlocked to all networks, GREAT JOB Guys thx

Great, I love detailed error reports.
Avri: I think the moderator of your forum has already contacted us. If you're the same person, you probably have 'no signal', right?
If so: did you mess with the 'GSM band' tool under 'Programs'? If you did, just set it 900/1800, possibly soft-reset your phone afterwards (stick the stylus in the big hole on the bottom left) and you should be fine. Let us know if that is not it, or if you're a different person altogether. But please, please, please, do not come back saying:
It still doesn't work. Please help.

Hi
Yes I am the sane person.
I didn't sleep for 2 nights I read a lot in this forum.
I tried what you said I get i bandswitch current 900/1800
but I still get NO SIGNAL.
I wroth before that I have T-Mobile PW10B1 model.
Please help this phone cost in Israel about $1,700
regards
avri
If the provider you're trying to connect to is on 1800, chances are things will not work. Major consensus narrative at this time is that at least the filtering for this phone is not set to a wide-enough range to make it a true tri-band phone, even if it might work in some sporadic cases.

I'm confused, what would *nix be needed for?

simple onlocking process
WARNING THICKO ALERT!!. I am referring to myself here I have looked at the various postings on unlocking but cant seem to get my head round what is required to unlock my XDA. I have just received a second hand O2 locked 32MB XDA it came with two USB cradles and all the other stuff. Can anyone please tell me is there a simple way to have it unlocked without sending it off. There are many references to the unlocking progam on here but no direct link to it. I would like to be sure that the unlocking process is simple and relativley risk free can anyone offer any help maybe an already created ROM or whatever it is that is required? If the file is largish please send it to [email protected] this is my broadband email address and can accept large files.
Cheers Sean :shock:
*nix (or cygwin) is needed when you want to build your own rom, using our mkrom tools.
you can find xdaunlock here. you will need a relatively new rom ( which includes wmodem.exe ) to run it. either 3.17 qtek, or our own Special edition ROM
Re: Thicko Alert: I managed to download the unlocling software and hey presto its unlocked.!!So yes the thicko was apt all I had to do was read the item fully.
Now for another question. Can anyone suggest a suitable method of connecting to the net using my unlocked xda. I dont need to worry about phone costs (long story) so as long as the dial up is a UK one with no out of country prefixes I should be able to get online free?
Unlocking Siemens SX56 ATT US
I have an At&t siemens sx56 that Im trying to get to work on vodaphone in Germany. I've tried the XDA Unlock program, but it won't work because I don't have the latest ROM. I'm not sure what to do from here, especially because I use it with a mac and the PocketMac software, so I can't use a serial cable. Any suggestions?
Thanks
Jake

Yes: simply back up everything and install the XDA-developers Special Edition ROM. It will unlock your device and make it cooler.

Hey I just bought a new Cingular 8125 and I unlocked it already. But I want to change everything to T-Mobile software and programs. How would I go about doing that?
And how would I go about getting AIM because it's not on Cingular phones?
please help.
You need to do a CID unlock, as well as, the SIM unlock that is generically referred to as unlocking a phone. I believe that CID stands for Carrier Identification lock/unlock. Search the forums for info on how to do this. After that you will be able to install any of the available ROMs including the newly released (as of today) T-Mobile rom.
Will that include AIM Mobile?

Yeah it will include that....
Use this for unlocking CID
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33796
then go here for tmobile rom
http://www.t-mobileapps.com/downloadcenter/Software_List.cfm?selDevice=24
It will install and run as if it were a MDA
BTW I just did this over the weekend with the 8100 that a friend of mine sold to me...and it worked like a champ! Thanks to everyone on this site...i have a feeling i'm going to have a lot of fun with this
i'm getting an error after every time i try to do the CID unlock saying ITWRITEDISK - An Internal error occurred. please help
I just this with an 8125 - got the same error as you but if you get the files saved to your harddrive you should be good to go.
I loaded the new 2.26 tmob rom and it has aim and yahoo im.

Do you have a G3 or a G4 model?
I haven't heard anything about unlocking the P3300 lately...
So guys, this is a reminder!
Let's join forces to unlock this friggin machine!
I'm trying things myself, but it looks like I'm the only one...
(I could be wrong)
But after I've seen the P3600 unlock soft download link in the "Trinity" side
of the forum I went kinda crazy...
Dudez.. Let's ROCK and UNLOCK!!!! (plz)
any luck so far ? will a hard reset plus soft reset (to delete the T-Mobile soft) work ? Hope to hear from you.
thom
2 delete t-mo $hit just soft rst when popup "..customizing your dev will start in 3sec" or how is it
Dudez... U can't just delete the simlock...
It's not possible by Hard-Resetting or Soft-Resetting...
U need to have a lot of experience with cracking/hacking to get the simlock off, but nowadays hackers/crackers became lazy...
I'm trying my best to study, but it takes a lot of time and I don't think I'm going to be able to research this within a few months. I'm not good enough.
But I'm doing my best...
How about you experts? Does the coffee taste good!?

Wheres POF et al !
I wonder if Pof has joined forces with imeicheck.co.uk to stiffle his bid to provide the free version of the Atemis Unlocker for the masses....
Well, if anyone sees him, tell him not to let us all down...
Maybe Wm6 will inspire someone, demand for the device will surely increase.
Will it make the unlock procedure slightly different?
Trust Pof he will something out for us,i have also posted in the Trinity and Hermes forum requesting Pof,Des and Olipro for the SSPL tool for the Artemis,im sure they are working on it,lets hope something fast comes out of it.

dont think (or I dare to say) that unlock procedure doesnt depend on OS version. Maybe on radio and bootloader - unlock Universal U have to use some special radio, SSPL is some part of bootloader if i remember.

Upgrade to XP.
That saying, if i went back to xp would it be simply plugging in the usb cable from the phone and using the rom file would it work or would i have to use other prog to cid unlock even though its a tmobile phone on a t-mobile contract
as your reply doesnt help things by just downgrading back to xp
Went back to xp same error 260, gone back to vista but still same problem

Somehow, I doubt it.
There's already a thread on this VERY BOARD, with a nearly identical question. Why, oh why, can't you just actually search first?
In order to get to this board, you had to pass near one that was called Wizard Mobile 6. It's on the same freakin' website as this board!!!

Your phone is CID locked,in order to upgrade you got to have it CID unlocked,now if you have G3 device,then follow the unlocking guide and how to upgrade guide posted as stickies in the 'wizard upgrading forum',but if you have a G4 device,it cannot be Cid unlocked,but there's a method 'SoftSPL' or 'HardSPL' in the G4 forum.Read and follow the guides to upgrade to latest wm 6 Roms.
Good Luck
