I have an XDA II that will not boot, simply shows "Serial, v 1.06". Went through various processes to get this far, and strangely I still get country ID errors when i try to load another version of windows mobile on it. can anyone help?
I had a simular problem with my IIi untill i removed the sim card and tried to updat without it installed, it worked for me, hope this might help.

I unfortunately did it in the first place without a SIM card installed... anyone else have any ideas?
Thanks though!
This is my first posting so please humor me. During this step "3 - Execute the EnableRapi.cab in your phone. Wait for it to finish", my Cingular 8125 crashed. If I turn it on with a sim card, I will get this error: "Data Crahes" "Please contact your service center." This is a white screen that cannot be closed.
1- Did this happen because I forgot to remove my sim card while unlocking?
2- How do I fix it (any link would be helpful)?
I have tried hard resetting to no avail. It boots fine without a sim card.
Thanks in advance for helping me.
Please Help
Have I posted this topic in the wrong forum?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Hi superman. Problem has occured because it crashed, not the sim. (although many do remove it when they do it) Try attaching the device via activesync and running lokwiz.bat from pc desktop and see if you can superunlock it. If not take sim out and try running enablerapi.cab again and then lokwiz.bat. Good luck

What ROM is now installed on it?
You could reflash to the shipping ROM which is on the ftp, then run through the unlocking process again.
Or, just grab the 2.17 upgrader I created and flash directly to it. Most folks report that it flashes fine without first CID unlocking.
BTW, for issues such as this, you'd be better off posting in the Wizard Upgrading forum. You'd also find this issue has been encountered and resolved several times.
Summiter,
I will try your solution. I am glad I found this site. Thanks again to everyone.
Not being a pc/phone buff I wondered if any of you guys can help me?
I bought a Vodafone V1640 that had O2 software on it. Firstly is this ok? Should it have had Vodafone software on it? Second, I sold the phone on eBay beause it did not match my needs or critera and now the person that bought it is saying there is a ROM error showing and that I had originally bought a duff phone. This I cannot understand, as when I received the phone, I charged it and made sure that it was in perfect working ordered. This was over a peroid of about 2-3 hours and no error showed on the phone what so ever. It actually came sealed as if it had come straight from Vodafone as an upgrade maybe.
I cannot understand why this error messgae is now showing and upon asking an IT collegue at work he has suggested that this person had maybe tried to load new software on to the phone therefore the ROM error being apparent.
Does anyone have any idea why the phone may only now be showing this error? I can assure you all that I did nothing to the phone as it was only out of the box for a few hours before I decided that it wasn't for me.
Thanks in advance for anyone that can help.
:roll:
what error is showing.
i have a vodafone unit, but have flashed various roms without problems.
i am currently on the latest i-mate.

Hi Steve
Thanks for replying.
I've got no idea what kind of ROM error is showing on the item as it is no longer in my possession. I am trying to contact my eBay buyer to find out exactly what message is showing and when.
What exactly is a ROM error anyway? As I stated previously, the phone was on for btween 2-3 hours and showed no signs of soft/hard ware damage. How do Rom error's occur?
Sorry to sound so vague and amateurish!!
I am no expert and have only been playing with these things for 9 months, but the only time I have ever seen ROM error is when i have been trying to flash a different ROM to my device, e.g the imate version to my vodafone machine.
Ask him what he did, what the error says and what he can see on the screen.Read the guide to installing a ROM and you can see what happens.
ROMs for specific versions such as imate will not flash to others such as vodafone unless you use a specific .exe file (the no id upgrade one).
If you try you will get an error, and sometimes you can get the machine up and running, other times you get a brick which can take time to get back to life.

Hi all,
I recently took out my sim card to replace it with a new one. However, when i placed the new one in and turned the BA on i recieved no signal, furthermore, when i put the passcode in, it said it was wrong. of course, I have punched in the right code i have always been using.
i have tired hard reseting but it still doesnt work.
Are there any other options avaliable apart from flashing a rom in again?
Any help or suggestion will be appriciated.
Kind regards,
Jason
some help would be appriciated

These are both known glitches in the BA with WM6
For the no signal a soft-reset should fix it, for some reason if you remove the battery and then replace, the first boot has no radio initialization, but a soft-reset after that fixes it.
As for the passcode, you have to clean your hive file to regain access to the device. You do not need to format storage, but all your registry settings for installed software will be gone. Most likely a re-install of each app will be needed.
i just went through this..i tried changing my sim card and i was freaked when i saw no radio rom installed..then i upgraded to radio 1.15 and first it worked but again i t showed the same so i went into bootloader an then soft-reset and its working till then ( about 5 softresets till now)
cheers guys, will try that out.
Hello all
As usuall we newbies tend to gravitate towards these great expert forums in hours of need. So any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'v been trying to get my old SPV M3100 to work with my new Three UK sim,
Iv run all the unlocking software and upgraded the ROM and radio with no error messages at all, yet everytime i try my Three UK sim in the SPV M3100 I get a SIMLOCK message and it greyed out so I can go no further.
My current setup is:
ROM Version 3.54.255.3
Radio Version 1.48.00.10
I wondering if it was the origonal unlocking that failed or weather the Three UK sim is just not working this phone.
Please excuse my ignorance, I've had a good root around the forum to see if anyone else has had this problem but I cant really find anything on it.
Cheers
have you tried this?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293665
thats where I started, I ran the software from my SD card and then ran the herm-unlock v3 after windows restored.
The very fact you've mentioned that probo means I've done it wrong I'll have to try again, I know it didn't work straight off from the USB connection, so I'll try the usb route again.
