The method used is a little bit risky, because it involves flashing a special version of the radio stack to perform the unlock, but if you follow the instructions properly everything should be fine.
Note that the unlock procedure requires you to reflash your Universal. Although the unlocking procedure itself should be safe, you are advised to take a full backup of all device data before use.
1. Backup your phone (not necessary, but advisable).
2. Remove your SD Card.
3. Enter bootloader mode on your Phone. To do this, simultaneously hold down the backlight key (“bulb” key, next to volume key), the power key and soft reset the phone. Your phone screen should clear, and you will see very faint writing saying “serial”. Let go of buttons etc.
4. Connect your phone to your computer using the USB lead.
5. Run the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe program – this will reflash your phone with necessary software required to enable the unlocker.
6. Wait patiently.
7. Once the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe upgrade completes, soft reset your phone by pressing the soft reset button on the back of the device [if the flash has been successfully applied, you should see that you now have Radio version 0.00.00]
8. Allow your phone to reboot. Once it has, connect to your PC using Activesync, and copy the UNI_Unlock_v1.exe program onto your phone. Alternatively, copy it to an SD card and insert into your phone.
9. Run UNI_Unlock_v1.exe on your phone. Wait patiently.
10. Once the process completes, soft reset your phone.
11. Process is complete!"""

That's for the HTC Universal man. NOT a universal unlocker. You could brick your phone trying this. BUT- if by some miracle of god it works, post back!

could you tell me some suggestion about how to unlock htc_t-mobile wing,because i still no clear about this. anyway please send me some pictures solve this
regarding.
If you would actually read the thread, or just my last post even, you would see that this is not intended for the wing, and I do not reccommend using it because it could destroy your phone.
THERE IS NO FREE SIM UNLOCK PROGRAM AVAILABLE FOR THE WING
That being said, here are your options if you want to get your wing unlocked:
1. Call T-mobile customer care at 1-800-TMOBILE or 611, as for the Smartphone/Pda department, and tell them you need your phone unlocked because you are going overseas for a week and you need to be able to use a foriegn sim card in your phone. They will email you the code in 48 hours. This only works if you have a T-Mobile account in good standing for at least 90 days.
2. Pay to have it done. That's what I had to do, because I don't have T-Mobile anymore.

Yeah, it doesn't work because it's not for the wing dude. Its for the UNIVERSAL. buzz_lightyear is a moderator here who developed the unlocker and buzzdev is his site, linked in his signature. The Universal is NOT the wing, and the unlocker for it will not work on the wing. You aren't doing anything wrong, it's just not meant for your phone. See the original xda thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=266758

It has nothing to do with being cheap. I don't think anyone should have to pay to have it done.
I totally agree with you man, I think it's totall bs, but they kinda have us by the balls here. I looked for MONTHS for unlocking tools, but there simply are none for the Wing/Herald. If you ever find anything let me know.
how much is it to unlock the Wing?
There are people around here on the forums that will do it, but I don't personally know any of them, and I don't get a guarantee either. I took mine to a local cell phone shop that I trust and had them do it. It cost me about $40, and it was worth every penny.
I just bought it from eBay and it came in today. It had Laurentus26 on it, which was really buggy. So I reset it, but then it wouldn't go past HTC screen, then I flashed Stock ROM(T-mo) on it, and now its stuck at Stick Together screen. What is wrong with my phone please help I'm so sad
i think i had the same prob...
turn your phone off....press the down volume and the power at the same time and flash a new compatible rom, be careful with the radio......

Yes I tried MANY MANY times using the PC. But it still gets stuck. And now its stuck at "SOFTWARE UPDATE FAILED"
How do I force install from MicroSD?
1. go here to get the latest official ROM:
http://dl.htc.com/ruudownload/t-mobileUS/DeviceDownloads.aspx?pid=leo
2. Unzip the download and find the .nbh file. Rename it LEOIMG.nbh.
Put this file on the root of the storage card (the stock 16gb that came with the phone won't work). I recommend buying a 10 dollar sandisk 2gb for flashing.
3. Put the phone into bootloader mode. Easiest way to get into bootloader: press the reset button under the back cover followed by immediately holding the vol down rocker. Bootloader is the funny looking tricolored screen. It should stop on the screen for a couple of seconds, then jump to a grey screen that asks if you want to perform the update. Press the red end call button (power) to start or vol down to cancel.
That should do it. It should start installing. If not, I'm not sure what else can be done. This method will also "relock" the phone so you can't install any custom ROMs unless you hspl unlock again.
Good Luck

I tried an old Nokia 2GB card, it just goes to the screen where it says Serial. It's not recognizing a rom on the card. It also says "Update ROM code error. Please try again" it happened after I installed the last ROM on this list: http://www.vbnfiles.com/xda/xmoo/Leo/TMOUS/ since it had the most downloads.

Are you getting that error when trying to flash from the card or from a computer via usb?
IF you get a ROM code error that means it is trying to flash it. I would go to the website I listed. It has you enter the S/N for the phone so you know it is the right Stock ROM.
p.s. Is it a tmobile branded hd2?

yeah its a T-Mo HD2, and yes that's where I got the ROM after entering my IMEI #, it gives some other error on PC, and gets stuck at 8%. Also, while flashing that ROM it wasn't connected to Device Center, since the PC wouldn't recognize it.
I called T-MO and they are sending me a brand new one, anything I can do in the meantime?

if you have to send this one back to them, it needs to be stock or bricked.
Once you get the new hd2, I would try to flash a .51 radio onto the one you need to send in. That will brick it so they can't see that is not stock.

same way you flash a ROM, either through usb or from SD card:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611787
Download a .51 radio and extract the .nbh file, rename it LEOIMG.nbh and put it on the storage card, enter bootloader, if it will flash, voila; instant brick!
I would only do this if they want the old one sent in and you can't get a stock ROM on it.
I can't seem to get my Omnia 7 to communicate with Win7 via USB cable in Download Mode. I use Win7 Pro x64.
I've installed:
I8700_Samsung_Mobile_USB_Driver(V5.2)_V1.2.1050.0
I run:
I8700_WP7_Downloader_Ver_7.03_For_Retail_Device_(Product_Force_Select)_
I've even tried uninstalling all Samsung USB drivers, reinstalling them and restarting my system, but I still can't get it to work.
When I start the WP7 Downloader, it says "MD5 Confirm Process: Cannot Image File Please Try Again!" in a dialog named "Confirm MD5 Value". What is that all about? There are no MD5 files in the firmware package that I've downloaded (I8700XXJJ4). If I click "Close", the application dialog opens, but I get no connection to the phone via a COM port.
What am I doing wrong?
[UPDATE!]
I got my Omnia 7 to connect by starting up the WP7 Downloader BEFORE I rebooted the phone into Download Mode. However, I'm still getting the "MD5 Confirm Process: Cannot Image File Please Try Again!" in a dialog named "Confirm MD5 Value". Please help!
Please post in the proper forums. If you have an issue related specifically to that device, please post it there. This is for WP7 development as a whole, and device specific problems go in their proper forums and subsections.
~~Tito~~
To flash, you have to start WP7 Downloader before you plug your Omnia 7 in download mode. And then you'll see a new COM port. (h**p://pdaphoneaddict.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=133&t=21328])
Be carefull : the XXJJ4 firmware seems not to work. It's not a valid binary retail file whereas the DTMJJ6 works fine. I'll flash my Omnia 7 one week ago. (]h**p://pdaphoneaddict.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=133&t=21326]) The DTMJJ6 is a T-Online branded ROM.
My Omnia 7 is a French Orange branded device and with the DTMJJ6, some features don't work anymore as data transfert without WiFi. It's the reason why I advise you to wait an other ROM. In my case I'm waiting for a dump of the original ROM or a new I8700XX.. files but still nothing...
firmware
where did you get the firmware or update, is it possible to get firmwares for other phones like the focus,
Please,
i have I8700XXJJ6 WITH CSC TMUJJ6, the phone is locked to T-mobile UK, and i'm downloading DTMJJ6, will this rom work, if yes, will the phone be unlocked ?
Thanks,
B.R.
It won't be unlocked with the new ROM...
Why do you want to change your JJ6 ROM for an other JJ6 one ?

The new ROM feels snappier due to the better 3g/wireless speeds and gets rid of the horrible tmobile branded IE and searches.
Over all definitely worth trying.
So it's the JK1 which is needed, not the JJ6.

to get it unlocked friend ! how can i do it ?
I'm having the same issue, but as far as i know, this problem is related due a replacement of the original download (yellow triangle warning screen) mode by a 'recover mode' (picture of an windows branded phone connecting to a pc).
Is there any other way to set the correct download mode besides using that jig device?
I got some response from the software setting 'Modem, USB Diag.' on the micro USB Test. When I did this, the phone was detected by WP7 Downloader, but the phone was in the wp7 home screen and not in download mode (I chose not try anything).
My Omnia 7 is an unlocked device using SFR branding (JJ6, that october one).

DanMaxis,
There might be a way without a jig. In principal you could try updating right through to nodo which would give you the new Bootloader that allows flashing.
What you have to do is "unbrand" your phone with the Samsung unbrand xap which can be found in the wp7 developer forum. (First or second page)
Of course you need to apply the chevron unlock for it.
After having done that you will be able to receive the pre Nodo update and then the Nodo update with the "cut connection after 4 seconds" trick.
After these updates are installed your bootloader should be the new one. This will in theory enable you to reflash a different rom onto it.
In theory... because I havent tried yet.
I encounter an error on my Omnia 7 that it timed out after the first update. This is a common issue among Samsung users (as has been reported all across the web) and the only way to fix it is to hard reset the phone.
Hi!
I updated my device (Omnia 7) to Nodo with the Chevron Tool but the Firmware (2424.10.10.6) and the bootloader (4.10.1.9) are still the same...
There's no new firmware yet?
With this bootloader I can't access to the downlaod mode... the jig is the only way?
Thank you very much!!!
I don't think the MD5 error relates to phone communication - I got this when I tried to open the update file from within a compressed folder - you have to extract the file that is downloaded to another folder then open it through the update tool. You'll also get an MD5 error if you enter the wrong password for the file.
The Control at the bottom left of the update tool window tells you if the phone is connected or not and is separate to actually opening the update files (turns green and says which Comm port the phone is on if the phone is connected properly).
Hope this helps.

hey guys..hope to be in a good health
this is my first theard ever here.. and honstly i found xda more useful,more likly to me rather than any websits else..so i'd like to thank guys here "u rocks guys "
now i'd like to ask about flashing anew rom for my HTC touch HD t8282
running win-mo 6.1 with arabic supported language..touch flow 3d..etc
but now i'm bored with original rom and i was looking for some roms around here and i found what i excatly wanted
but..(i'm sorry for that question :$) i dun know how to flash a new rom to my blackstone..i used search fuction and dummies guide also but..rofl i didn't get what they were takin about
so i was asking if someone could provide me with smplified way to install a new rom using HSPL
Thanks in advance and sorry for z long topic
basically, flashing a winmo phone is an easy process:
1. bootloader mode (power on with VOL- button pressed)
2. flashing
3. hard reset
however, there are a few preparations if your device was never flashed before, you need to install hspl on your phone and make sure you have the correct driver installed on your pc. the driver for the device in bootloader mode might vary from the driver used to sync the device, when switched on.
1. the driver:
if you have windows xp, connect the phone in bootloader mode and look, whether it changes from serial to usb on the bootloader screen, you should be fine by then.
on windows vista/7 you connect the device in bootloader mode, and might actually take some time for it to download another driver from windows update. if it changes from serial to usb, first try to connect using mtty, before attempting to flash, because the connection might not yet be stable and you might want to have a look at the thread (ref updating the usb drivers).
2. hspl
to quote the dummies' guide thread:
(HSPL2a) Place your phone into its bootloader.
(HSPL2b) Run HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex.exe from the download in step (HSPL1a) and follow it as normal.
(HSPL2c) If successful, go to step HSPL3. If the flashing process sits at 0% and you get Error [260] connection after some time, go to step (Troubleshooting).
pretty easy, in other words, just connect the device in bootloader mode and run the package on the pc, it will unlock the spl and flash hspl.
if all went well, you are ready to flash, download any rom you like from the rom development section, and flash it using the .exe file that comes with them, might be updater.exe, blackstone RUU.exe or something else. if your rom download only consists of an .nbh file, like ruu_signed.nbh or BLACIMG.nbh, download advanced RUU and use it to flash.
alternatively, if this is to complicated for you as a beginner, you can rename the rom file to BLACIMG.nbh (if it is not already named like that) and put it in the root of the sd card, by then entering bootloader mode, it should find the rom and give you detailed instructions on how to install it.
last step, hard reset, as described in the original manual, switch on, while pressing VOL- and VOL+ and follow the instructions onscreen.

download this, extract all the files, take micro SD out of device, connect device to active sync and then run HardSPLWrapper_Blackstone.exe on your pc, it will now start to flash a new SPL, when complete confirm you got it installed, go into bootloader mode (tricolour screen! {hold volume down and press the reset button under the back cover}) now verify the screen shows 1.56.OliNex, which is the new Hard-SPL version.
when complete you will be able to flash any rom to your touch hd/blackstone
note: if you do not flash a new rom you will have graphical issues with the current rom, however this gets fixed as soon as you flash a new rom
if you have any trouble, click me and go to the first post
good luck
I have an HTC Surround that I cant get to boot past htc logo and if i try to hard rest it goes to spl screen. Where can i get the software to reflash it. I also have another microsd that i can change out if that is bad
still working on
So I replaced the mirco sd and tried to do the restore using the power and volume buttons and still would not get it to try and boot more then a few secs and stop at the htc screen. I also flashed the stock att rom that I got off xda but still no luck. My last chance is trying a new battery today are there any more suggestions
My surround did the same thing recently. It's a problem surrounds have. Unfortunately you have tried the 3 most common solutions.
1: reflash with stock rom
2: Change out sd card
3: hard reset
The only way I know of to get a working one after you have tried those 3 things is hope it's under warranty. :-/

Where did you get that stock at&t rom? I've been all through the developer section and all I see are telus and cingular roms. I've got a phone from the shop that's stuck on the htc logo and replacing the sd card hasn't fixed it. I tried to flash a telus rom because hey what the hell do I have to lose but RUU wasn't able to establish an ActiveSync connection on the htc logo screen looping repeatedly. Is there a way to force it into a sort of download mode from the htc logo to do the flashing from?

i'm guessing this should work:
C. Windows Phone 7 ROM Flashing Instructions
1. Unzip your downloaded *.zip file in a separate folder
2. Press and hold power-on/off button to power-off the phone
3. Press and hold volume-down button and then press power-on/off button to enter bootloader mode
4. When your phone enters the tricolor screen bootloader mode, release volume-down button
5. Connect your phone to your windows 7/vista/xp pc/laptop with a usb cable
6. Verify that your phone will be identified and relevant drivers will be installed by windows os of your pc/laptop
7. After completion of (6.) above, check the usb message connection on your phone screen
8. To flash the new ROM go to your pc/laptop folder of (1.) above
9. Double click on the ROMUpdateUtility.exe file and strictly follow the instructions on your pc/laptop screen
Do You still need help about this?
Basically you need to download DFT_RSPL_WP7FG2_LAUNCH from this forum, this will allow you to flash a custom rom. The ROM installed at the phone must be a NODO one because mango roms updates the loader and are not compatible.
For apply it you must put the phone on loader. Connect the phone to the usb, turn it off, turn it on but holding volume down key.
Once there you will see the 3 color screen and will say USB run the DFT_RSPL_WP7FG2_LAUNCH and follow the steps.
The phone will restart and showing again the 3 color screen but with HSPL now you can install DFT ROM. DFT ROM is basically a custom Windows Phone with the option to sideload apps you just run ROMUpdateUtility.exe from the DFT ROM downloaded and it will upgrade your OS to DFT Version.
Now what? SPL too high!
My brothers HTC surround has crashed, and fails to load the OS. i can get to the bootloader, but it's
spl-4.2.2250.1 (129185) MNG
i've got HSPL and RSPL, but they say DON'T TRY IF NOT 1.X SPL OR IF IT SAYS MNG. his says both. he was running mango, and i'm just trying to reinstall a stock rom. I'm wondering what advice any of you might have. I've reinstalled roms on Samsung devices, but not on an HTC, so i'm not sure what all this is about, or what the consequences are of proceeding. any help would be great.
Thanks dudes.
bump?
please?
Is it 1/2 bricked?
If you connect the device to a PC does it go to USB mode? At teh red blue green screen does it say USB at the bottom?
USB
It does display USB. If i leave it on for like an hour, eventually, i just discovered, windows DOES load, and it says "your memory is corrupt" it does connect to the computer, and it is detected by my pc, and it does display USB. I'm going to try to put in a new SD card, but i'm wondering once i do that, will i be able to flash the retail rom to it, with that spl.
thanks!
Check this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1597837.I believe you will have to downgrade your bootloader. I haven't tried this yet myself, I hope it helps you out.
