!!XDA trying to unlock with version 5. 14!!

Dear Manipulator developers,
I have a XDA simlocked to O2 and need your help for unlocking cause it didnt worked by now!
If i hold Power Button and press the softreset there comes the red green blue screen with:
Wallaby Bootloader V5. 14
GSM OK
if i put in my serial cable(bought on ebay) and start the Manipulator..there stands:
GSM turn on
already on restet....
and then it disappears and there stands:
"GSM turn on
sucsess..
ok but in the software there stands :
Status: ready
sidlock : <none>
Gidlock: <none>
IMEI: some numbers
keep first 8 digits is hooked
call timers: zero
no reset button anymore cause i pressed it allready!
if i startet the program the first time there was no "unlock button" just reset button..
now there is notthing to press??
what must i do?
if i start this software it founds the xda on com 1!so everything seems to work!??
please help me!
greets
Daniel
PS: i can change the numbers in the field "IMEI" but that is dangerous or not my imei is my phone id!?

oh what might be important:
i have not done an "autokonfiguration" for O2 network..cause this is downloading the smart menu stuff thet i dont wanted..
have i to do this autokonfiguration to use the manipulator correctly?
or has it nothing to do with the autoconfiguration of my mobile phone?
please help me i am as far as before!
PS:i think this Forum is getting too big..maybe the chifs of this great site could make categories for the forum?!
like "tecnical questions-hardware questions-software questions and so on..

one more question..
if u read my post above u see that i am trying to unlock my simlock on O2..but now..i thought about it..what is if this what stands there (simlock : <none>) is correct!!?? i dont have a simlock?!maybe..look i can use a D2 simcard..all works fine but!:if i loose networksugnal..i have to turn off an on again the mobile..cause otherwise it would stay without neworksignal the whole day!..my question:do i have a simlock??
or wouldnt it be able to use any other card if i had a simlock to O2?
pleas help!

From the above I would conclude your phone is indeed not SIMlocked, but you are experiencing problems related to Radio Stack version 4.14. The answer is to upgrade to 4.16 or 4.17, which both exist and are floating around, but haven't been offered as official upgrades yet.

But if i put my xda in bootloader moder there stands version 5.14!
if i reet it normaly there stands 3.14? which is my radio version?
wher can i get a new one for germany?
can i upgrade via dockingstation?

Version numbers
There is a whole bunch of version numbers associated with the XDA:
The Microsoft PocketPC OS version
The HTC software version (3.00.01 through 3.15.something)
The Radio Stack version
The protocol bytes
The Wallaby Bootloader version
Each version number represents the version of some different part of the software. Your bootloader is a separate thing with a separate version number, not related to the rest of the ROM. Your bootloader could well be present before the device gets a plastic casing and is told whether it's going to live a life as an O2 XDA. a T-Mobile MDA or a Siemens SX56.
A certain HTC version will be built based on a certain release of the PocketPC OS, with all the HTC specific drivers and additional (O2 or T-Mobile) related programs added.
The Radio Stack version depends on the software loaded into the GSM part of the device, and can vary independently from the OS. There's different versions depending on whether its a 900/1800 (Asian/European) or 900/1900 (American) phone.

ok but where can i get a update for a german xda?can i get it free without paying in an O2 shop?
Where can updates been found?and how do i upgrade my rom version?

How to Find Rom and Radio Version

Hi,
I have HTC x7500.
As far as i understand i can find the ROM and Radio version from boot loader screen.
But Boot loader screen shows alot of information.
For example
M 0A
S 02
G 00
B 06
1.25.01
R 1.38.00.00
G 32
I assume my Rom version is 1.25.01.
Can you someone please confirm this before i brick up my HTC x7500.
Thanks for help
Best Regards

your radio is the one after R in your case 1.38
you can also find them both in start>setting>system> device informaion
mine is
ROM verson: 2.35.110.4
ROM date: 10/09/07
Radio version: 1.57.00.00

to upgrade the rom just click on ROMUpdateUtility and follow the on screen steps, and make shore you battery is at least 80%
hope all go's well

Thanks bow9487

True,. It is expensive toy to have

Cant make calls from hermes

Hi I've done every possible guide to unlock my hermes ive got a virgin payg sim im running manila v16 rom and radio 1.56. There is signal on the bar and the hermes recognises the net work but when i try to make a call it ends straight away.
any links to a better guide or a simple solution
help please cheers shane
oh and ive done sim cid unlock

If you bought it 2nd hand theres a chance it was stolen, or there have been unpaid bills, cotract has been broken and IMEI has been blocked. You won't be able to call...
Otherwise, check your radio version, its in your settings. If its not there then it means you need to reflash your STOCK Radio ROM. This might fix it or might not, though as you've said you have signal its more likely that the phone IMEI has been blocked.

Please help me, my Dopod 838 Pro has No GSM!

Broken data (3G) on my 32B?! Any ideas?

Hey all.
I picked up a 2nd hand T-Mobile (I think) MyTouch Unlocked a couple of months ago and have been busy about rooting and flashing since. I'm on Telus in Canada, and my 3G SIM works fine for data and voice, practically out of the box. However the last time I flash its rom, about 1 week later the 3G data stopped working suddenly. I tried everything I could reasonably think:
- Called Telus and had them reset my SIM
- Tried a different Telus SIM
- Rebooted/battery pull, whatever I could think of
- Reflashed a bunch of roms, including my 1st working Cyanogen
Its been a month or so since then (I've been overseas) and thought I would try to do something about it before I returned. If I can't get the data working again, I might as well start looking for a new phone. :-(
Fast Boot gives me the following information:
SAPPHIRE UNKNOWN 32B ENG S-OFF H
HBOOT-1.33.2005 (SAPP50000)
CPLD-11
RADIO-2.22.19.261
I'm running RA-sapphire-v1.5.2G for flashing. Right now I've got KiNgxKlair-DroidEris2G flashed, but it doesn't matter as I can't test anything right now. (in Japan)
Does anyone have any ideas? Maybe I screwed up and stuck a 32A rom on my 32B are some point?
What about my radio version? I have never been able to find any great information online about radio versions and never attempted to flash it. Could a reflash to even the same version help?
Any suggestions would be really appreciated. I'm not interested into getting into another 3 year contract and even 2 year old Androids are still selling for $400 used. Plus this MyTouch has been great so far. (until the data died...)
Thanks!

You should upgrade to 3.22.23.02 version radio
Radio & SPL
Both are zipped inside that file. You don't need to flash your SPL if it works for you. But try that radio and see if it's working better for you.

Fast reply!
Kemekill, thanks for the quick reply!
I'll give it a try tonight. Is there a good source for radio related info? I've had a hard time trying to piece together what the story is on radio updates because they typically get mixed in with provider specific stories or 32A vs 32B, etc... I wasn't able to locate a wiki or anything central.
If its all common knowledge then I'm clearly not digging deep enough.
Thanks!

Well here's what i think the issue is. Most myTouch roms only work with specific radios thus your out of date radio is probably the problem
The only real source you'll find on radios is in the main developers thread on XDA and maybe something from Cyanogen's Wiki

I'm so confused. Because I've got a 32B I'm having a hard time finding good information on how to flash just the radio. Every post starts with the radio and ends up only talking about SPL. I've got SPL 1.33.2005 so I should be good, but I need to try to do something about my malfunctioning radio. Is the Android SDK required to flash a radio.img? My RA-sapphire-v1.5.2G supports flashing from zips. Sorry to come off as a newb. My experience with Android rooting and roming has been its easy to get into, but maintaining if you blink for a couple of months is difficult. If I can just get my radio working again I'll leave it alone.
Thanks for any help anything can throw my way.

Forget it. SDK, flash radio, got it.

How did you get 3G speeds on non- AWS network like Telus? Because Tmobile MyTouch only works on AWS- Frequency.
**EDIT**
After reading another post of yours I think you have the rogers version, because of your 32b board. But just for a heads up if its branded "T-Mobile" then that means 3G speeds will only work with Wind Wireless or Mobilicity.

The Rogers one is 32A. Just checked mine. All the T-mo MT3G's are supposed to be 32B iirc...

any suggestions to this .
if i have to root ,install roms etc then so be it ,i just want the phone open to all networks...any advice is much appreciated

Hi,
Are you sure those SIM cards work in another handset?
Depending on your software version you may need to downgrade before you can root, apply S-OFF, and SIM Unlock.

yep all sims are current....i think i'll go down the road you say....i'll take a look
thanks .

My radio s-off tool can do simunlock, check it out.
