hey
comeon u people... help me out here... i went through search and read lot of things talking about unlocking.. but noone gives u a straight easy msg...
some unlock your sim but can not unlock CID... but noone explained what CID means .. called id??
pls help me out.. i'm trying to look for info.. but i can't seem to find an easy guide.. i'm not lazy.. if thats what ur thinking.
Unlocking CID is for flashign ROM.
At your current knowledge, I won't suggest you to flash your ROM. Flashing your ROM without much knowledge can potentially kill your phone.
Just unlocking your phone (SIM unlock) is sufficient for now. I think aWizard can SIM unlock your phone.
hey
yeh i'm fairly newbie with this kinda stuff... u mentioned awizard can SIM- unlock my phone.. how do i contact him.. or is there any link you can guide me to.. thanks hanmin. - adil
At this page, there is a line on top of the page, that looks like this

You need to ask this question in that thread. There are others there who encountered problems and were able to overcome them.
I personally had to run it twice (second time after manually installing enablerapi on my wizard which is discussed in the thread).
In the event that you are encountering a new problem it really belongs in the thread abotu the program.
Ok I have just bought this phone and I come from modaco.
I am so confused!
I have a like new MDA Vario with a G4 Chipset and an AKU2 rom (tmobile rom).
I just dont have a clue where to find the sim unlock and CID unlocker to enable me to stick my orange sim in and install farias rom.
BTW Faria am looking forward very much to installing your rom!
Im so confused
Thanks in advance
Sam
p.s I have searched for about 2 hours and i cant find anything, any more information you need just ask thanks!

Thank you I saw this post, but i doesnt actualyl explain how to CID unlock the device.
It says you cannot CID unlock G4 or G3 but i know the G3 CID unlock is possible.
And is there a Sim unlock for G4 around?
so far, no one had found a way to CID unlock G4 ROMs yet... If you are really THAT desperate, go use one of the commercial unlock services available online...
ah, ok.
thanks for clearing that up for me.
Yeh I really need to use an orange sim card in my vario.
Ho hum! looks like ill have to fork out £20!
Are there any other cheaper unlockers around?
Thanks
Sam
i know of no other companies that provides SIM unlocking service other than imeicheck, so that's the only option you have right now...
next time, try to keep the forum clean and post your questions within the related thread itself... it'll help a lot by reducing the clutter, and when others do the search, the results will come out better...
anyway. glad to be of help to you...
ok mate all unlocked!
Thanks very much for all your help!

This is the #1 most asked question here. Take some time and research. There are several stickies that will lead you through the process. Though I would suggest ONLY READING until you determine if you have a G3 or G4 and understand and accept ALL risks including the possibility of ruining (bricking) your device before you start actually unlocking/flashing.
Read, Read, Read. The information is already here in step by step format.
If you have a question with the process AFTER you have read it then feel free to ask for help.

First perform a soft reset of your phone. When the versions numbers appear on the splash screen look for IPL and SPL. If they end in .001 you have a G4 and can only use ROMs that do not include IPL/SPL code. The ROM description will tell you or if it does not you can download it and check for yourself. Use the search term "typho5.exe" for help with this. Otherwise you have a G3 (much better supported) and should read this ENTIRE thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285435
Thanks baarod.
Man sometimes I'm SO confused... I mean, for real! I create a thread titled "[READ FIRST] The Definitive Guide to Unlocking & Rom Upgrading G3 Wizards "... (the READ FIRST is an attention getter, no?)
My moderator buds make it a sticky so it stays very close to the top of the page...
I mean, what more can we do?????
Folks, PLEASE at least show some inclination to doing some research before posting. Yes there's no such thing as a stupid question... or is there????

You might be posting this in the wrong section of your brain The guys n gals on the board are generally a happy and helpful bunch, but we always prefer for you to make an effort, even the most feable attempt at failure, before asking questions asked a septendecillion times before.
Have a look at the index page, and you can probably match your device to a picture of your phone. Read the rules on the board (posted in the General thread). And please read everything you can on the wiki, or even google for it.
Basically, the radio rom is the bit that does the radio bit of your phone - communicating with the phone (which is basically a "radio"). You shouldn't need to upgrade the radio part of the phone if you're having no problems.
Upgrading the OS part of the phone will give you new software etc. But the radio is normally fine unless you specifically know that there's a better version around.
But read first, ask questions later.

Well, apparently there is no way to tell if your phone is CID unlocked just by looking at it. you can check out the thread about unlocking your device that-s in this forum
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285435
and do it. it doesn't hurt, and then you can be sure you have an unlocked device.
then you can flash any wizard ROM you like (provided you do have a Wizard, of course )
enjoy!
Yea just follow the guide. its pretty easy.
ok one last thing....my IPL and SPL are both currently 1.05....so do i need to downgrade first or can i just flash a new ROM straight away ?
anyone ???

PLS help urgent !!!
THANKS

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1340276&postcount=1 is the only one I know of. It's a pre-release device, so many of the tools are not tested / modified for the device yet.
Gordon
How exactly did you get this from the uk and where from?!
lol I'd be very happy if you told me..
Pardon for attempting to thread jacking ... but since we're on the topic of "unlocking" ...
May I ask "Howto" regarding "APP UNLOCKING" on the Kaiser ?? do we still go ahead using the __>> SDA_ApplicationUnlock that's floating around ??
Thanks

Before you unlock your kaiser I would suggest waiting for a kaiser verified unlocking tool to use. I'm kind of new to this community but I think it's better SAFE than sorry when dealing with possibly bricking your phone.

Thank you for the kind advice
I think it quite safe when dealing with APP UNLOCKING ( worse that can happen you can always hard reset.
now, CID/SIM unlocking ( like the thread topic ) is a whole different ball game.
again ... Thanks
For how much ?
Hi Peter,
Congrats on ur new Kaiser, for how much did u get it ?
Thanks,
