Helloooo,
I have the Orange SPV M3100, and I tried to unlock it using one of the softwares on e-bay called HTC_Hermes_SIM_CID_Unlock_v3a ( I found it the cheapest option , I am not sure if I have done a sim unlock or a CID unlock, but now it is not doing anything, it is not even loading, and it is not communicating with Activesync at all. I am not sure what I have done , I just hope that I can use it again. .
Thanks guys.
Tecko.
U have been conned by some one on ebay You are on this forum but you still never bother searching this forum for unlock this unlock is made by pof one of the god of PDA phone
what sort of screen do u get when you turn your phone on
If I found this forum before I bought the software, this would have never happend, but any way, I do not get any thing actually, Just the green LED is on and thats all, the screen looks as it is switched off.
cheers.

Hi all,
first off all i'd like to say Hi to everyone as im new here.
Also id like to thank everyone for readingmy problems
Any way i purchased an XDA II about a Week ago from Ebay its really my fault as in the item description it said there was a problem with the phone it wont start as its locked.
The phone goes to a Blue screen after you ON it and do the screen configiration etc
The blue screen has Cognito on it saying 'Warning this Devcie is Locked'
then under it:
'If you are installing from the MMC card please wait.
Otherwise, either insert the MMC card and do a cold boot, or contact Cognito to unlock the device.
Im not sure what this means and if i leave the phone for a while or type it from it takes me to a password screen in white with the keyboard on it.
----
Im not sure what to do if you can help me you will save me alot of money otherwise do i just chuck the phone away also
ive tried a Hard Reset by clicking the POWER BUTTON, RESET KET.
nothing happens just the phone loads up and makes me Calibrate the screen.
Ive tried this process while also pressing the D-PAD i get a screen with Serial with V1.06 i think at the bottom
i dont really know how i can know if its Hard resetted.
So please peolple take a Minute to help me thanks alot.

Hi,
I flashed the himalaya M1000 with WM2003se upgrade. but still could not remove the Cognito (shame).
please if somebody can help that would b nice
Should do. I've done the 1.72 update on it based on the ROM from this site and all is good.
Hi all,
I have the Orange M600 which has numerous issues - Orange insist there is no new firmware out even though the one that comes with it is ancient
I would like to upgrade my Rom - I know *absolutely nothing* about doing so though, but I have spent a few hours reading through these forums trying to learn what to do.
I have learnt about the G3 and G4 models (I have a G4).
Question 1) Is this a good rom to put on? -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=283965&highlight=m600
Question 2) Will I need to do anything else to my device to flash it? My device is probably CID locked.
Question 3) Can I backup my original ROM and flash it back if it goes wrong?
So...what is it about the current ROM that you are not happy with?
You can end up with a very expensive paperweight by trying to fix something that ain't broke.
Be very careful. I've done a few hacks and tweaks but the one thing I have not done is flash the ROM - too risky if you ask me.

We have many devices with the same issue. Constant freezing on the today screen when you wake the device from standby, sometimes the phone takes a while to connect (i.e when it's ringing you press the green button but it takes several seconds before you can hear people on the other end of the phone), sometimes the phone takes ages to dial...
Basically we'd like to try updating the firmware on one of our devices to see if it makes any difference.
In that case - click the XDA-Wiki link at the top of the page and read the instuctions there. Some have reported that the later ROMS are more responsive but as I said - it's a risky process.
I run mine overclocked and it's stable and responsive. No real problems.

Hello everyone
RE: XDA EXEC/QTEK 9000
I have recently updated my sofware on the O2 website and after following the instructions to the letter the screen will just show a mess of green and red dots all over the screen in vertical sections?

Please help if you could suggest anything
Thank you
Shepshed2000
ME TOO!!!
I have had exactly the same happen to me, it appears that O2 are total amateurs when it comes to supplying ROM upgrades. not only that but you will find that the support no. on the site actually takes you nowhere. I sent mine back to the supplier and after trying to reflash the ROM they were unsuccessful and so i am now waiting on a new XDA. Dont bother with O2 as they were no help at all to me, firstly i couldnt get through at all and after 2 weeks of emailing them every day i got a response telliung me how to put the unit into boot loader mode (no help at all!!!!!)
Good luck to you in getting this issue resolved, i only hope that you have it insured like myself.
Once again O2 you are indeed crap!! thanks for the service that i didnt recieve, altho i pay way over the odds for this otherwise worthy handset.
£££££ what does it cost to repair? £££££
my phone is using a vodafone sim card and i bought the phone off ebay so reciepts etc are nowhere
will o2 still help me fix this ?
do you know how much it will cost ??
or am i best to throw it in the bin
plz reply soon
thank you people
Hi everyone.
This is my first time in xda and i am here posting because i have a problem with my htc elfin.
I bought the phone from e-bay. The seller told me it was unlocked but in fact it wasnt. It was on Orange and i had to unlock it using a program i bought on ebay (latter i saw it for free online ). The program was designed for htc elf but i was told it would work. Well, in fact it did, but i have a problem... The phone easilly loses network and even when it was network it wont make or receive calls... Texting works ok... I really dont know what to do... Can anyone help me??
Best regards
Hi,
Well, I hate to break the news to you, but it does kind of sound like the phone may be broken... two things you could try anyways:
a) Perform a hard-reset: Switch off your phone, keep both phone buttons pressed (green&red) and switch it on. The out-of-box state will be restored and all your data will be erased (!). So backup your contacts before doing this.
If this does not work, then it is highly likely that your phone has some sort of hardware-issue. But you may still want to try
b) Upgrade the firmware of your phone (including the radio part!). Just look around in this forum, there's basically everything you need. Always pay close attention to the how-to-guides & make sure you proceed exactly as decribed there.
Good luck,
murosama
Hi
I tryed what you said. Hard reset made nothing but updating rom did... I his working better but not perfect... Maybe some antena problem dont you think?
Hiya
I bought a Touch HD off ebay which was an orange original unit but was unlocked so I could use any sim in it. However, two weeks into buying it and it started to vibrate as soon as I switched it on. I contacted HTC who replaced the whole of the internal boards and sent it back to me. i got it back this morning and now its asking me for a sim unlock code??? I get a white screen saying the network is locked and a long box in which to put an unlock code.
Is there any way I can re-unlock the phone without putting this code back in or do you think I'm going to have to ask HTC for a code???
thank you very much for any advice given

Well first of all, all Touch HD's vibrate when they are switched on, but I assume you mean it kept doing it and wouldn't stop with yours or something. And secondly I'm sure HTC won't give you an unlock code to re-unlock your phone as you say it is an Orange branded device, but it's worth asking them. If they won't help you then your only options are to take it to a shop to have it unlocked, or do it yourself at home via one of the many unlock websites. You'll have to pay for these options though.
Hiya
thanks for the reply
Ive sussed that it is indeed been relocked back to orange. The have apparently sent me a new replacement phone so I will have to get it unlocked( tried an orange cheepo sim this morning and didnt get the request for a code)
I cant believe I didnt think about it properly but Im that up to my eye balls with assignments and essays for uni my mind has been all over the place this past few weeks LOL
I was wondering if the unlock software from Oilpro might do the trick. Ive priced locally and it means being without the phone for four days and paying......35 quid to unlock it.
Back in the day when I had my SP3100 the software was free but I realise that I havent been a really active member on the forum- mainly because you guys are so damned brainy and I dont feel I have anything to contribute like you do. Give me a camera and I can talk for days( am a tog doing a ba hons degree in photography) but phones and techy stuff about roms....well, Im at a loss. Maybe thats a course I should take next LOL
anyway, thank you for the reply. Much appreciated.
I'll try to find somewhere to get the unlock software at a reasonable price.

forgot to say that it did indeed vibrate all the time when switched on( and got damned hot too) but that has now been sorted with a new phone.....
I did the OliPro way and it was easy to do. One of the cheapest options too I think.
Just tried to buy the unlock software from oliopro's site and tried to use paypal and it wont let me pay via that method. Its asking me to create an account and give my credit card details...
I'm not willing to give any details like that ATM and my money is tied up in a paypal account too.
If Oliopro is reading this any help gratefully received.
