CID unlocked---imei-check.co.uk

I just couldnt wait any longer to get past CID lock, so I unlocked at http://www.imei-check.co.uk/
(removes SIM/NETWORK LOCK - use any provider, removes CID lock - flash any firmware)
costs: 30,68 euros.
good news: cid unlocked, upgrade to any rom now possible!

accept ,my apologies
youve lost me with jargon
im new to xda
so what is cid??
what was it before 02???
so is it liek a plain normal htc now>>
did you lose any data??
is the gps affected?

CID unlock
Could someone send a file with extension unl, which was normally provided by imei-check to unlock your device.
It may bring a good idea to spl modification.
Thanks in advance.

hi to all
cid unlocking is same with sim unlocking
i am wrong ?
i will pay money but i will work my phone wiht all simcards
thanks for repply

CID unlock is not the same as SIM unlock.
if we talk about imei-check service they do the both.
you can read it here:
http://www.imei-check.co.uk/c3unlock.php
you can use any sim card.

Good job I saw this thread, I was going to do mine tonight!!

I think if you're able to flash your device with a ROM from HTC, DOPOD or O2... its CID unlocked...

Duhh... wouldn't it be better to find out before trying to flash any ROM? Suppose you think the device is unlocked but actually it isn't, then you might end up with a bricked phone.

CoolGadget,
If I had the original T-mobile Rom then I would've just taken the risk but I don't and that's why I'm a little worried.
I'm still looking for it but it seems like it doesn't exist anywhere!
If anyone can help me out then I'd really appreciate it.
Regards.

T-Mobile ROM
The original T-Mobile ROM is available on T-Mobile website amongst many others. I really dont think there is another way to confirm you have CID-unlocked your set, unless you flash it.
Though the report of many who have used imei-check seems to suggest it gets CID-Unlocked

I allways thought it would be possible by running the mtty program. Wasn't the command Info 2 for getting the status? Correct me if I'm wrong.
I haven't tried it though, because my phone is certainly locked and I don't want to pay for getting it unlocked.

info 2 and info 4 do not work for the Artemis.

Guys thanks for your replys. I've managed to track down the original Tmobile ROM for the MDA 3 (thanks to some guys here). so now I'll be using imei check to unlock it, once done, I'll go ahead and install any ROM other than Tmobile and if it works then I'll know my device is CID unlocked. If it doesnt then I have the Tmobile ROM to fall back on.
Hopefully it will work otherwise I'll be getting in touch with imei check immediately!
Thanks for your help guys.

How many of us have successfully flash WM6.5

Well
how many of us have successfully flash WM6.5?
is it advisable to flash it?

Personally I am happy with SPB Mobile Shell 3. The I am not interested in another WinMo version until 7, which will need another phone.

GPS performans with WM6.5
Flashed with Tommy34's ROM with WM6.5.
Very happy that my GPS fixing -boring- delay is fully resolved.
I almost believed in my Device have had a hardware defect, then realized it is none..
I have got one single trouble that SKYPE WinMobile v2.5 can not be installed..
I will try v3.0 Beta ASAP I am able to download..
***Edited***
Beta v3.0 works out..

I installed tommy34 cHome 0.4 ROM and I'm very happy with it. My gps finally works too...and the phone is more response in general.

i have used
hi
i have used ironeagles,tommy34 & right now using Pdaviet 6.5ROM V07
Which i have posted today at the Jade Rom development
all are working fine and no problem at all for me

Hy everyone,

I have not been able to flash my phone.
I am using Vista and when I try and flash the rom on the phone, I get:
Vista has found new hardware (I think it was a CDMA Driver)

I've flashed WM6.5 (can't remember which version I used), and I thought all was going well, until I tried to sim unlock it. The phone is 2 months old, with Orange branding, and had the horrible Orange Unique Manager, which is why I wanted to flash the phone, and I assumed the phone was simlocked. After I flashed it, I bought a Sim Unlock Code, but when I put a 3 sim card in, I didn't get the expected "Enter SIM Unlock Code" prompt. Instead I just get "No Service" displayed on the home screen with the exclaimation mark at the top where the signal strength is displayed. I've also tried with an (active contract) T-mob Sim, and a Tesco Mob Sim. Same thing, I don't get the prompt to be able put the unlock code in.
I can't help thinking it's because I've flashed the phone, it seems like there's something preventing the Enter SIM Unlock Code dialog from coming up. Is there anyone else with this problem, or a solution? What ROMs are people using that they have sucessfully SIM unlocked their phones with?
Thank you!

So does it still work with an Orange Sim?

I have flashed my Orange UK Jade with various flavours of WM6.5, all with good results, currently using a version cooked by PDAVIET, with no issues.

Guys, is it possible to flash to Windows 6.5 then flash again to 6.1 if all doesn't go well?

just wondering but are PDAVIET, Ironeagle and Tommy34s version of wm 6.5 all have 8gb micro sd support. And also which would you recommend as the best.

I flash 6.5 German and ist is working grate.
I used
Jade_LeanCut_GER_WM65_5.2.23001_OEM_2.33.721.1
Installed
2DManila_1_20_19131530_00
And MUI 407 files from erviuskitchen german kittchen.
And installed only th programms that i need.
Only i need Thai caracters in sms. It is not possible to change the thaom font to a full wich Asiatic caracters. installed msss.tff and change all to it, but manila sms does not take care about font change in sms/messages...
I tryed to coock a rom usin erviuskitchen german kittchen wich only changing tahoma font. but all roms i cooked with it are getting instable after 2 dayes. My favorite navigation system wich german and Asien maps does not start afer 3 times anymore.
Si i stick nearly fully satisfyed with the Jade_LeanCut_GER_WM65_5.2.23001_OEM_2.33.721.1

Hi,
I got my HTC since 2 mounth, and i really want to test WM6.5, but i must say that i'm a little afraid about flashing my phone.
I've read the "flash for n00bs" post, and it seems that there is a way to "flash-back" your phone to a factory version, am I right...?
By the way, if i want to use my waranty, can i "flash-back" my phone ?
Sorry for my bad english, thanks guys !
Eizig from France

Hello,
I am from Brazil and bought my Touch 3G about two months ago. It came with WM 6.1.
Last week I successfully applied the "Hard SPL 2.33 by Olinex" and then Flashed it with "Touch3G__WM6.5__2_33_721_17__B23033_WWE" ROM from PDVIANET.
Everything is running fine. The only comment is that we really need to disabled the 3G (H) network and run just with Edge (E) in order to save some battery. Other than that I recommend everybody to upgrade to WM 6.5

Phone bricked - does anybody have an official T-Mobile ROM?

Ouch - after trying to SSPL my phone, it doesn't boot anymore. It's a T-Mobile branded Leo which doesnt allow to flash original HTC ROMs.
Now I need to try a T-Mob version. Anybody Can provide one ?
Thanks !

have you tried downloading an official rom from HTC with your phone's serial number?
http://www.htc.com/europe/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=297&cat=2&dl_id=804

Thanks for the tip, but: Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device.
Anyone who has a T-Mob ROM from somewhere ?
Thanks!

try a gold card solution...i also got a t-mobile hd2 i sued gold card to upto 1.6 rom...its working good...

Hello Matmax,
I had the same Problem, but you can try a Hardreset.
Turn your LEO off ( Battery out and in)
Press Volume up and down together
and turn HD2 on.
I had to try several times.
There is no official T-Mobile ROM to download.
New T-Mobile ROM comes out next week in Germany (They said)

UK T-Mobile rom I saw posted last week.

So, flashing roms using sspl does not work with this type of t mobile branded leo?

For me it seems so :-(
I tried several hard resets, doesn't help. Thnanks also for the UK stock ROM, but that gives me another INVALID VENDER ID

i think u must post ur problem in sticked Bepe thread, may he has the help.

Auch!! I am also searching for a suitable T mobile rom (UK) for my leo, but could't find any, yet...
P.S.:I planned to flash another rom using new sspl, but after reading your post I think I will wait a bit more... (If someone would not give a different feedback...)

I think your best bet is to go for the GoldCard method, although it would be nice if someone could host the T-Mobile rom on a site other than rapidshare.
GC method worked on my UK T-Mobile HD2...

Hi
Re try Using SSPL and the custom rom it will flash from boot loader.
I had the problem first time using SSPL it crashes and stayed at bootloader. Every time fails You disconnect the cable and reconnect, Then re tried several time running SSPL with IT2 rom and 3rd or fourth attempt it worked. If not UK 1.48 version will work on T mobile uk.
Good luck

T-Mobile UK ROM
Hi try downloading this one from my 4Shared account. I don't think that it's the fastest link but it may help you out of a hole....

I too have a T-Mobile HD2 and was about to flash the new Miri ROM until I saw your post. Now a tad nervous about doing so......

Mat, before you tried to SSPL flash your Leo did you have a stock T-Mob rom or had you already GoldCarded to a new release rom?

What CID Lock do I have?

Hi all,
first of all appologies if I am posting this in the wrong place but I don't think it quite belobgs in ROM development .
My question is basicaly how do I find out what CID lock is on my HD2?
I bought the phone sim unlocked and all is fine. It works fine with my Virgin sim (UK). I would like to upgrade to the latest official ROM as I don't feel ready to experiment with cooked ROMs just yet.
However when I log on to the HTC web site and try to download a ROM it says "Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device."
I have tried it from both the UK and Europe web sites but get the same result.
The current rom shows no branding of any sort, also there is non on the phone itself.
Is it CID locked to an operators SIM's? If so how do I find out which and will I be able to get a ROM from them if I don't use them?
Or will I have to go the HSPL route and go cooked roms?
Any Help or guidance greatly appreciated.
Regards
Clive

There are truely unlocked phones, and then there are those unlocked but the serial numbers are blocked on request of the service provider. Vodafone, O2 and (I'm guessing) Virgin do this so you can only upgrade when they OK the ROM release.
You can install HSPL which gets around all that and lets you explore the wonderful world of cooked ROMs...read this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477

ROM lock and SIM lock are not the same and not connected.
If the HTC website says invalid serial, then the ROM is locked. (Probably to Virgin, if that's where you got it from) and you must wait for them (virgin) to release the update. That is the ONLY way to install a new rom without using HSPL/SSPL
EDIT - Oh, and your line "Or will I have to go the HSPL route and go cooked roms?", , , , HSPL isn't just for cooked roms, it will let you install official HTC roms too, if you want, not just cooked ones.

I didn't get it from Virgin, my SIM is Virgin and that's what I put in it. I bought it privately. I'm guessing then it is CID Locked to Vodaphone or the like.
OK so it looks like HSPL is the route to go?
If I want to install an official HTC ROM how can I download it as I have to enter my serial number and it gets rejected? Are they available elsewhere?
Am I likely to loose anything (apart from guarantee ) by installing latest HTC rom and any advice on which one? I guess by that I mean EU or UK versions?
Thanks for the replies by the way much appreciated

Its pretty important that you know who it was locked to, because to uninstal HSPL, or to fix it if things go bad, the very best thing to have available is the stock rom. As for losing guarantee, if you bought it privately then you already lost that, right?

Pretty much although I could send it back through the seller.

Hello everyone!
i have one t-mobile branded firmware htc hd2 which i bought it from and uk based ebay seller..its unlock..and i can recieve and make calls..
but im not able to use internet on the phone bcos it has settings for t-mobile network..
and i also tried to upgrade it through htc website but whenever im trying it says these updates are not for this serial number...
kindly help me in debranding my phone so that i can use this in australia with full functions..thanks a lot in advance..
trust me that would be a great help from you.

If this is a UK T-Mob HD, then its a contract phone and seems strange that it is up for sale so soon. Unless it has been stolen - I don't think we should help with stolen phones, unless you're willing to gvie me the IMEI number so I can check here with T-Mob.

Im not exactly sure if you want help making your internet work with your sim, or if you want help taking the tmobile rom off and putting a stock or custom one on..
If you just want help with internet settings then download the attached file and install on your phone. Then run the connection setup program in the start menu, connections screen and it should set up your internet and mms settings for the network you select (if its available).
If you want to put a custom rom on your device then follow my flashing a leo rom for noobs link in my signature to install HardSPL and then you can flash any of the roms in the rom development section to take off the tmobile branding and give you whatever you want.

What network are you trying to use it with?
I'm not too sure if you can change the connection settings easy on the T-Mobile ROM, I'd recommend flashing with the HTC unbranded ROM and then you can just select your service provider and it all works sweet.

I work for T-mobile and the only way you can change these settings is indeed to change to HTC unbranded ROM or any other ROM of your choice.

You must have flashed one of the TMobile Test Roms during your travels, which has that splash screen on it. Custom Roms dont include a splash screen so it wont be overwritten when flashing other roms afterwards.
Download the attachment and unzip to a folder on your pc. Sync using your usb cable and run the included customruu.exe file to flash back the original htc splash screen.
