I have been reading these forums for about a month now. I finally bought a unlocked MDA that I am currently using with cingular. I think my phone is CID locked don't really know. I want to upgrade the rom it still has 1.8.10.2 WWE Rom, It has 01.09.10 for the radio rom. I tried to update to the newest Qtek 9100 rom but it gave me a error on the updater. Can I update to the newest T-mobile rom and not have it locked back up? Please help I tell me what to do.
Thank,
Niko
hello there
Don't load the new tmobile version...download the 8125 ROM from here:
http://www.htcamerica.net/support/cingular_8125.html
It will work and make the phone a Cingular ROM phone. I did it today and it's awesome.
If you decide to upgrade the ROM to cingular, when you get to the end of the progress bar and it seems to stop for a long time...wait longer!!! It will work.
Good luck.
Hi,
I have a Vodafone VPA Compact II (HTC Wizard) in German.
I will relocate to USA and I want to update my phone OS etc. into English (Cingular ROM).
I know that I have to first unlock my phone and I used both Lokiwiz02b and aWizard 1.3 beta 2 in order to unlock my phone. And these programs let me know that my phone is unlocked.
"Your phone is now unlocked...."
I have tried both "U. Unlock" and "C. CID Unlock (SuperCID)".
Than I have tried to install Cingular ROM "RUU_Wizard_225111_22511102_022511_CWS_WWE_Ship.exe" but I still get error msg 294.
Than I tried other Cingular file "Cingular_Custom_AKU2.3_Combo_Installer_V1.exe" and it was installed without any problem. But I have still German in my phone. As I understand this file installs only Extended ROM of Cingular.
Now I need to install an English ROM and when possible a Cingular one.
Any tip?
:?:
I have found a solution.
Lokiwiz02b does not work for AKU2 ROMs. I've just downgraded my ROM into an older version and than applied Lokiwiz02b CID unlock with success.
Than I upgraded my ROM into new Cingular 8125 one and works great!
help on Cingular 8125

Thanks very much
Hello!
I recently purchased a Cingular 8125 and am waiting for it to show up in the mail. I am a T-Mobile subscriber and plan on unlocking the 8125 as soon as I get it so I can use it with the T-Mobile network, after performing a ROM upgrade.
My question is this: I'm assuming that since it is a Cingular phone, it's going to be pre-loaded with Cingular crap. Not that the T-Mobile crap is any better, but is there a way to install the T-Mobile (or generic/unbranded, like Qtek or I-Mate) ROM onto the 8125?
I mean, the MDA and 8125 are both HTC Wizards, and the hardware is the same, right? The button layout is just different? Would the T-Mobile ROM work on the 8125? Or even better, is there a generic non-branded ROM that I could install on the 8125?
Thanks much,
-G
You can flash the 8125 to the current MDA ROM using Risodoro's instructions.

That one? If not, could you point me to the thread?
Thanks!
T-Mobile ROM on 8125
Get a Cingular 8125
Unlock your 8125 - CID unlock the phone with lokiwiz 0.2b -
download T-mobile latest ROM from here
http://www.t-mobileapps.com/downloadcenter/software_detail.cfm?id=80
Connect through activesync
run the downloaded file, follow upgrade instructions on screen.
That's it, I did it, and it works fine...Good Luck
Where can I get Lokiwiz 0.2b?
I downloaded the one that was in these forums, but it doesn't have any of the tools needed. Lokiwiz 0.3a has them, but it's missing "pdocwrite.exe" and "preboot.exe"...
Where can I get the whole package?
EDIT: n/m, found it. Trying it now
EDIT: I tried it, I get "CopyFileToTFFS(cidunlocked.bin:0, 0, 00010000)
ERROR: ITWriteDisk - An internal error occurred." and I still can't install the T-Mobile ROM.
IPL and SPL are 2.25, that means it's a G3, right? How do I CID unlock this?
okay i've successfully unlocked my sim and cid on my cingular 8125. i wanted to do this because i wanted to use a qtek 9100 rom. however i don't know which 9100 rom to download. which one is the latest one? i'm so lost now. also now i don't have any signal on my phone. i think its because i have to download the radio rom.
another question i have is... should i download the cingular radio rom or the tmobile radio rom since i am using a tmobile sim???
hi, i need little help - one guy have a cingular 8125. He tryed to unlock it, but something went wrong.
Now it stucked in bootloader. Does anyone have a original cingular 8125 rom? Or there is also another way to unbrick?

SPL-3.08
