Use my tool (check signature) that has an option to read the CID status...

Is there a hard spl flash for the Wizard? I haven't been spending much time here but the only place I have seen Hard SPL is on the Hermes forums. If this is where you have seen it from you should NOT attempt to flash this to your Wizard they are more different internally than they are externally.

Unfortunately there is no HardSPL nor SSPL for Wizard
When it came out first time i asked the developer to give me hints so that i could try to port it to Wizard and he said there was a team working on that...and that was months ago
So no, G4 devices can't be CID unlocked for free.

I used lokiwiz02b to unlock? both the SID and CID. The device restarted during both installations like it should have.
I read about how to check if the SID is unlocked by using a SIM card from another network but what about the CID?
Thank for any help.

assuming you already flashed up to a 2.xx carrier rom, you can attempt to flash a different carrier's rom or any 2.xx custom rom here to see if it changes. If it errors out or completes but nothing changes then you are not CID unlocked.
Thank you. Yeah, I followed "How to fllsh a Wizard..." tutorial up to G4.6 assuming it was unlocked. I tried Xplorer 1.1 (originally getting error 300) but then updated the romupdateutility.exe. After the install finished i just had the 3 Color bootloader screen.

woah woah woah... You have a G4... G4's aren't CID Unlocked unless you have paid to have this done from imei-check.co.uk . You also have to be careful (if you don't know this already) what roms you flash. Don't just go and flash another carrier's rom on a G4 or you could (will?) wind up with a brick.
So on a G4, you will either have to pay to get CID Unlocked or you use ShellTool to do upgrades (you have to make sure you remove the IPL/SPL in roms before upgrading).

yeah, you didn't have that signature in your post when I replied originally. You have a G4. be very careful which roms you flash. Flashing IPL/SPL into a G4 will brick it. Lokiwiz won't CID unlock a G4. As MFrazzz has said the only known way to CID unlock a G4 is to pay a website for it (imei-unlockers or something like that.)
I forgot to put this in my post earlier... Please use this to learn to flash:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298613
Since we now know you have a G4, just start at G4.1 and have fun (but be careful).

If you have a G3 you can do it yourself for free, read the stickies to find out how.
If you have a G4 you will have to pay for Super CID. There is currently no known way to unlock a G4 without paying for it. You can however use the shelltool to bypass the CID check when flashing. This has mixed results from those that use it so I would suggest talking to those that have actually used this to see their results, or suggestions.
If you don't know which you have read some more before you attempt to flash anything. Doing G3 steps on a G4 device could very well brick your device beyond recovery.
i have done that the thing is that i believe i did unlock it but i can flash to like a hardspl like others do i only can for like wizard Wm6 what can i do

Everything you need to know -- and all the files to do it -- are in this thread. Read every word and go through each step -- without skipping ANYTHING -- and you will be unlocked and ready to flash a WM6 ROM. There are several of those you can choose from here.
forget to mention my phone is already unlocked...im in canada right now so i got it unlocked to use their network services.

your phone may be SIM unlocked but it also needs to be CID unlocked (to put non-cingular roms on phone). heed the advice of the other members on here cause if not, you will brick your phone.
so the first thing i do is cid-unlock before i do anything else?
yup, make sure it is CID unlocked.. there are tools to do it in these forums, or you can pay 40 dollars to www.imei-check.com and do it there.

Before you do anything I suggest figuring out if you have a G3 or a G4 as which type will determine how you can unlock your phone. If you attempt the G3 instructions on a G4 you will most likely brick your phone.
I recently followed all steps to upgrade my phone wizard a9100 to wm6. It installed w/out problem. But when it boots it is still wm5. I downloaded various wm6 packages and it ends up the same way. I don't know what the problem is. The phone is a generic Qtek phone, not t-mobile or any other. Thankss!
Be sure that the phone is CID unlocked. If it's not and you keep on flashing you might kill the phone or criple it by not booting again into OS.
cheers
Thanks

If its CID locked it won't upgrade,first CID unlock the phone.If its a G3 follow this guide :-

But if its G4 read the SoftSPL or HardSPL method in the G4 forum posted as stickies.

You can follow this thread. See the steps at the end of the post.
I'm not sure what you mean by locked again though. As long as you install the stock rom, radio and spl the phone is back in it's original condition unless you did a security unlock of the phone of course, in which case I believe that is irreversible. If you just used uspl or hspl to flash, there is no need to "lock" the device again.

Actually you can reverse security unlock. cmonex has a re-security locker on her site, link here.
CID unlocking can also be undone (see the Hard SPL thread).
SIM unlocking, won't affect the warranty
