I upgraded my HTC Touch Elf to WM 6.5 Onyx, installed the latest SPL and IPL version, the device boots, wifi works, ...
But when I insert a sim card, the device won't boot. After the "smart mobility", it turns itself off.
What have I done wrong ?
Thanks for your time.

Hello. I have a problem...I have the SFR S300+ from France and I want to use it in my country. I did everything written in this thread --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293957 but my PPC is not sim-unlocked. When I start Trin_Unlock_v1.exe from my phone and check "SIM Unlock" the program starts and then appear a screen "Success! Device SIM/Network lock removed" but after that when I start the PPC again there is another screen "SIM Lock" that tells me that I have tried xx times and I have to wait until timeout...
If anybody know how to remove the sim-lock please tell me... I'm trying for a month and I can't find a solution for this problem.
I am with WM6 if it's important
Thanks in advance and Merry Christmas to all
I had to install an old radio rom before unlocking my s300+ (i had to launch the application while using this old rom), don't know if it is necessary though now.
Quote "This is a patched radio ROM that can be used to remove the Operator
SIM lock and CID lock from HTC Trinity based telephones."
I trckon you must run the RomUpdateUtility located in the RUU file in order to flash your device with another radio rom, then you launch the unlocker(sim and cid un locker) . Try with another sim card to see if the operation was successful and if it is the case, flash your device with a new radio rom. Hope i helped (i had the same problem)
I tried with a few radio roms but without success. Can you tell me please with which radio rom have you unlocked your Trinity I am with 1.46.00.11 and the phone is locked
I have the same problem ... I downgraded radio to 1.16.00.00 patched version, executed unlocker but when i reboot ( i tried hard and soft reset ) the SIM was locked yet
any info about unlocked process ???? any reported problem with M700 from Orange ????
Yesss! I did it! It's unlocked I started the "AUTO_Unlock_v1.bat" file and after it finished the radio rom was 1.16...I put the sim card and the phone was still locked... Then I decided to do it in the second way... with the "Trin_Unlock_v1.exe" file transefered on my phone.. But this time I put the file not on the phone memory but on the memory card. When I started the application and it finishes I switched the phone off for a while...(10-15sec.) and then I put the sim card. When I started the phone there was no screen asking me to put a password.
I tried searching the forums but i couldn't find any posts about my specific problem. I've seen sort of similar problems, but not the same one, so here i am posting a new thread xD
Anyway, my issue is that whenever i try to start my phone with a cingular sim card installed, it can't. More specifically, it gets to the second screen where it has the windows mobile logo, then it just restarts. It loads completely with no sim, or if i use a tmobile sim i can at least get into windows where it asks for the sim unlock code, but with a cingular or att sim, it just wont start! it acts as it would if you charge it without a battery. any clues?
ipl 2.25
spl 2.25
gsm02.25.11
os 2.21.11.1

The extended_Rom has got corrupted,try out a Hard reset,check if it works,otherwise reflash the official carrier's Rom or SIM/CID unlock the phone and upgrade to any latest wm6.
Hi Guys,
so here's the deal.
My Herald doesent work propably.
I can switch it on, it boots till the welcome Screen of WM6. Everything that happens then is that the annoying WM "busy Circle" is spinning, and the phone LED starts flashing, and thats it.
I can turn on an off the screen with the power button.
BUT if I take the sim out of the Device AND the MicoSD Card, everything works well.
But thats not the real deal I guess. Fortunately I still have warrenty but I want to make shure that it is not a simple problem I could fix myselfe.
THX Guys
just perform a Hard Reset and your problems will be solved
if u dont know, look in WIKI section
Thx for your Answer but unfortunatley it's not that easy.. I already performed a harware reset.. and I already treid to play a new rom on the device but it diesent work because the desktop pc can't connect the device via activesync.. The desktop doesn#t evene recognize the device..
a) well, you have to provide us some data.. turn off phone, hold camera+reset with the stylus and tell the numbers that r shown on ur herald screen
b) have u tried to flash via memory card?? can work
c) press power to set-standby mode. Then plug usbcable and hit power, device will "revive usb" and activesync should detect it. And go to Settings > Connection > disable advanced USB mode..

This is just a shot in the dark, but have you tried someone else's sim card in your phone with out the micro sd in it? My phone started to act up, and it turned out the sim card was bad.
@ tramuyo:
Thx for your reply.. I did what you suggested, and well: BIG MAGIC happend
No just kidding.. I'm not that into PPC to know theses special tricks.
But well here is some data:
IPL 4.17.0001
SPL 4.17.0000
I have absolutly no idea how this may help but i'm pretty confident that everyone here is more an expert than me... ;-) I just use these Toys..*G
And no I did not flash via sd car.. I just used the original WM6 Flash tool provided by HTC, and that works via activesync as fare as i know.
@dougstoner:
Also Thxs for your reply but the sim works. I testet it on another phone. I wish it would be as easy
UPDATE:
Removing SIM and SD Card -> Device boots...
Rom Flashed with originial HTC WM6 -> Devie workes WITH SIM and SD Card
After several reboots for test purposes -> same problem as before... AND problem is still there when using just one card..SIM or SD Card and even when using no card...
i think ur problem is microSD card. reformat in another computer and try with your mobile
btw,
congratulations!
I already did that.. With no longing effect...
I guess I really should send the device to HTC, and say bye bye for at last 3 weeks...
And why congratulations tramuyo? Because I got that thing runnig with the help of the HTC Support
oh no.. sorry, i understand you have done it (i dont understand too good english language)
But we can give some support to avoid send it to htc
I flashed an Elf yesterday with an original HTC Rom (german). In the beginning all worked fine, after flashing and restart it showed the HTC screen, all in german, and said: no Sim. ihad removed the Sim and SD Card before flashing. So I switched off the device, put back Sim and wanted to start. right now the device doesn`t boot any more. It just shows a T-Mobile Screen for about 10 sec and than goes off. I Tried the recover Rom from sniper911 (HTC Test ROM), but the device doesn`t start in bootloader Modus. I can`t access the bootloader modus. What to do????
charge your battery and try hard reset
SIM suddenly stopped being recognized
Hi!
I had qtek (s200) prophet IPL 2.10.001 ,spl 2.20.0001 , GSM 2.47.21 and OS 2.20.7.36 . I upgrade with rom PL 2.10.001 ,spl 2.20.0001 , GSM 2.20.7.34 . After that my phone is not recognising sim. Message is there on the screen (invalid sim)
Then found out that the SIM was "missing or invalid"
Tried my SIM on a colleague's phone. It works.
Tried his SIM on my phone. Doesn't work
Tried soft reset, hard reset, flash a bunch of different rom, with and without the SIM inserted. With every different system I just get an "Invalid or missing SIM" message
Ah, also tried cleaning the contacts of the SIM holder in the phone, and even turning it on after half an hour in the fridge
Everything else seems to be working, it's just some part of the gsm system that doesn't work
Does anyone have other suggestions?
Thanks!!
Invalid SIM
Hi There
It is possible you have damaged the phone as you must NEVER flash a phone with the SIM inserted
The other thing to note is did you perform a hard SPL before flashing?
