I have mda 3 locked to t-mobile and they can't provide me with unlock code.
Is there any other way to unlock this device ?

hi! i have a mda III, until now you only can get the unlock code by paying 15 pounds to T-Mobile. I tkink that soon will appear an unlock tool on this web page, like xda2unlock.exe for the XDA II.
Do you know if we could unlock the mda III by changing the entire ROM (including the extended rom and the radio rom) for the Qtek 9090 one? If someone knows it, please let us know. Thanks.
You can't unlock the phone by changing the rom.
Then, where the simlock is located? out of the ROM perhaps? I don´t understand because all the devices (MDA III, Qtek 9090, Imate PDA2K...) are the same gadget and all come from HTC, so all its parts except for the ROM program would have to be equal. If you know the answer, please, let me know. Thanks.
where is the rom
Sure, the simlock is in the rom
so, changing the rom by sd card on boot loader is for me the solution
you have to test it
Could you be litle more specific about changing rom with sd card on MDA3 ?
Did you try this ?

I have an unlocked MDA Vario with Qtek ROM on it. I'd like to flash the ROM to i-Mate ROM. Even though it's an unlocked phone, I've read that the operator ID must also be changed/reset, whatever to flash to another brand ROM.
Does an unlocked phone imply the operator ID is "unlocked" too?
Could you have an unlocked phone & still have a unique operator ID perventing a successful ROM flash?
Is there a tool to just "unlock" the operator ID?
Much thanks,
Craig
PS. I can't figure out how to update my profile to show I'm a Wizard phone owner. My profile shows my previous XDA I and XDA II phones but no selection to modify current phone. Anyone know how to modify this?
Hi Guys,
Firstly, i am new to this - so if i ask any stupid Q's, please forgive me
I will be getting my MDA Vario tomorrow, and before i do too much customisaton and transfer my phonebook over, i would like some advice on upgrading.
From reading this Forum, i believe that I have to do a CID unlock and a SIM unlock. I am familier with a SIM unlock, but what it a CID unlock?
Also, from what i can gather, in order to do this - i have to downgrade to an older version of the rom first. Once i have done this and unlocked the device, does anyone have any recomendations on what ROM i should upgrade it to? I have heard the Qtek rom is a good one, but will is this the best one to be going for?
Thanks for your input guys. You can be asured, once i get familier with this device i shall be providing much imput to this forum!

Hi, I'm new to WM5/vario as well (experienced on palms & treos).
You only need to unlock the wizard if you want to use another suppliers SIM card, and to get rid of the T-Mobile stuff you need to remove the Carrier ID (CID), so you can then change the rom to another one not recognised by your TMobile rom.
I understand, but could be wrong, that you only need to down grade if your device already has one of the latest a2dp stereo roms with push email built in.
Hope this helps (if I'm right)!!!

Maybe you upgrade the AKU 3,3???
The lokwiz work only the IPL 2 (aku 2.0)
Can you write the unlock cod in MDA C II???
hi there,
thanks for reply,
i have the latest t-mobile rom so probably not aku 2.
is there any way to downgrade to aku 2. i have searched the forums with no joy.
IPL and AKU are two different things
You cant downgrade to boot v2 if you have already upgraded it to v3.x. Thats the answer I got from T-mobile.

Download the Lokwiz03!
If the folder have 2 bin fajl,then delete.
Run lockwiz
then write the unlock code
You put the other SIM (not T-mobile)
Write the PIN and then look the UNLOCK you must press.
Then write THE UNLOCK CODE and you have the UNLOCKED phone .
This Work with IPL 3 (AKU 3,3 T-mobile rom)

hi
I found "all in one sim unlock tool" by "itsme" for XDAIIs.
Is this the software I need?
This will destroy the instalation of WM6 or the rom?
Thanks

itsme's tool should do the trick. Unlocking SIM should have no effect on your installed WM6. In the unlikely event that it would harm WM6, just simply reflash.
But it's also very likely that you can just call your provider for the unlocking code. SIM lock is a way in which providers make sure to make money on "cheap" phones, the actual cost of the device is hidden in the cost per month or per call. Countries can have different laws:
-in Belgium the provider has to give you the unlock code when you ask for it, even if it's one day after purchase.
-in the Netherlands the provider should give it after 1 year (if you ask for it)
Once you've unlocked, you can shop for the cheapest provider. If you don't you keep on paying for a device you already paid...
Hi,
I just bought a T-Mobile Wing and wanted to unlock it for international usage and loading WM 6.1 (custom cooked ROMS). I hope the procedure would be same as I did with my previous WIZARD.
Can someone help me here in this regard?
Thanks.

"SIM Locked" Network Locked - Enter unlock code
Even after doing the Hard SPL the device is asking for unlock code if I insert a foreigh sim card.
I tried doing the USPL also. Same results.
After Hard SPL I also tried to install Touch_IT_wm6.1_Full_-Herald_P4350.zip ROM. It installed well but show same SIM locked error.
Please let me know the steps to start fresh and unlock the phone for international usage. I also wanted to load custom rOM but as SIM not supporting so not able to proceed further.
Apreciate any help in this regard.
