Hi,
I hope here's someone who can help me.
I've been for a longer time in Israel and now I'm back in Germany.
In Israel I bought a Motorola Q9h with a Cellcom-Netlock (no Simlock). Ok - it was no surprise that it didn't work with my German T-Mobile-simcard. So I've flashed my phone with the (GER) WM6.1 ROM - but the Netlock is still there (I get the message that I can just use the phone with specific SIM-cards...).
I found out (help me if I'm wrong) that the only way to get the phone working is to get a code (from Cellcom) to unlock it.
So I wrote to Cellcom - but I didn't get any answer yet.
I also read a lot about some other offers at the internet where you have to pay some money and then you get the code for unlocking. Someone here has got some experience with these offers?
I also lost the Hebrew on my phone (before the GER ROM) I could switch between HEB and ENG. Is there any other to get Hebrew working on my phone?

Hi,
I sucessfully unlocked my t-mobile pocket pc phone edition which i bought in the USA. Back in Holland my BEN (a.k.a. t-mobile) sim didn't work because it doesn't support the 1800 network.
After the unlocking i bought a Vodafone SIM and it works. Thank you xda-developers!
But how do i get a rom update since i am not a t-mobile or O2 customer? Can anyone get me a link?

Just make very sure you never install the RSU (Radio Stack Upgrade) for anything but a 900/1900 phone, or you'll be in trouble...
You can safely install the O2 RUU Rom Upgrade packages to upgrade the PDA part, either normally or through the bootloader.
Just get the update from t-mobile
Just get the update from t-mobile's USA website
All you need is a valid T-mobile subscriber number to punch into their web site.
The entire block of 10-digit numbers 801808xxxx belongs to t-mobile. Try different numbers till you find one that works

hi there,
you need to cid-unlock your machine in order to be able to flash other compatible roms, i.e. an english rom like tmouk or dopod p800w from the wiki.
afaik, from my own experience imeicheck.co.uk will help you in a zip, though charge you for it. see: http://www.imei-check.co.uk/c3unlock.php
are the only ones that can help momentarrily. the board though is working on other hopefull solutions, though cant say when its successfully done!
p.s.: the deblocking done by the sales lady only allows you to use another provider/sim than the tmobile ones!!!
Thank you
how did you get the lady to unlock your phone?
do you have to pay anything?
regards
take from this!!!

Hello, i am from greece, so i am not that familiar with the loads of names i came across for the p3300, since in my country there is only HTC Branded phones, not XDA or DOPOD or whatever. I have the phone for quite some time now and i am always in the tact of updating my devices. So the time for my htc has come. I am gonna unlock it through imei-check since as i read there is not a commercial unlocker yet, and i am having a bit of a problem in order what rom i should pick to flash on my phone. I really dont need the greek support on my phone, since all my devices are on english. So, can someone help me choosing in what rom i should choose ?
And i have couple of questions too,
1) I have a rom from my manufacturer's page that only updates the Greek language menus, if i flash to some abroad rom will i still able to put that rom to my phone to have greek again or no ?
2) Will (Lets say O2 or another ROM) be compatible with my carrier ( Cosmote GR).
Any help will be great.
Thank you for your time,
Best Regards , George.
Hi all,
sorry for that newbie question, but while I am living in UK, I got the british Orbit. Being German on the other hand, I would looooove WM6, especially in German (Language doesn't really matter, but e.g. the Keyboard layout would help!)
So - what to do to upgrade it? Will I really have to pay to get it CID Unlocked? Is there a workaround (NBHTool / UpgradeTool) or would I miss something that would be upgraded otherwise too?
Or shall I just call o2, ask them to unlock or replace it (the actual device)?
Or will the update be released for british orbits too (I'd probably rather wait a bit instead of spending money)...
If your device is o2 branded, you can download the update from o2 Germany's site and try the upgrade. The way the interface works for these OEM upgrades are very safe. If the program cannot or will not upgrade your Orbit to WM6, it will tell you - not destroy your device. Worst case, just wait for o2 UK or HTC to release WM6, but I think having CID unlock is just a good idea in general because it open so many doors for you. its all the cooked, or otherwise modified ROMs that you have to watch out for. Not everyone has the same concept of 'stable platform'.
It is o2 Branded, but unfortunately o2 UK, so it does not accept the German release (tried yesterday) - one way or another, preferring to have WM6 in German, I guess I couldn't avoid the unlock, could I?
If you want the Deutsche sprache ROM right now, then yeah, then unlock seems to be the way. I want mine to be in English, so I am going to wait for o2 UK or HTC.
same **** with mine. I want to change it from Deutsch to English, so i'll wait for the UK o2 release. Do u know if i will (i suppose based on the opposite tries) be able to flash mine German O2 orbit to the UK version. I hate it like that really much.
With CID Unlock I was able to get the OEM HTC rom onto my German Orbit in English. There is a write up somewhere on how to do it. You have to use this program that Hex edits the files of the HTC rom and allows it to load in conjunction to having the phone CID unlocked.
Here is the link to the thread..

Hello;
I just got an HTC hermes today; the only problem is it is sold by Orange telecom so it is blocked and I cant use my sim card of SFR (France).
And it is with WM5.
Please help me to get a WM6.x (english) ROM for this mobile and please help me; how to deblock this phone??
Thank you very very much: badly waiting for answer.

First off, you need to SIM unlock to the device so you can use it on your carrier. Then go read the wiki (or stickies) and find out how to hardspl the device to put WM6.x ROMs on it.
