SOLUTION FOUND -CID/sim UNLOCKING FOR WIZARD WITH AKU2 ROMS.

warnning; does not work with g4 wizards!!!!!
this steps are to cid unlock and also to unlock sim in the folowing devices; qtek 9100, i-mate k-jam, mda vario, orange spv m3000, o2 xda mini s, dopod 838, Cingular 8125
first; you must make a full backup of you wizard before doing this , I personally use [wizBackup.exe] posted below for my backups and restores. This is not mandatory but could save an enormous amount of trouble.
I as most people with a wizard with the aku2 rom found out that it cannot be cid unlock with lokiwiz tool, you will get the following;{error:itwritedisk-an internal error occurred}.
. that is till now.
downgrade rom here http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7696581/htc%20wizard/CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe
note- this steps is for unlocking the cid of the wizard with aku2 rom.
how to cid. unlock all wizard variants ( that have the latest rom build )
first download custom__ruu_wizard_1050412_wwe_101_11210_wwe. rom from the ftp site from the above link, unpack it and just click the romupdateutility_wizard_noid.exe to start downgrading. Simply follow the prompts.
after the rom are loaded go thru the initial setup as you would with any rom.
now download the (lokiwiz02b) from here;
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7696581/htc wizard/CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe
Make sure you unzip lokiwiz to the root o the c: drive.
please copy the whole lokiwiz folder to the root of the drive,not the contentents of the folder!!!!!
and follow the instructions .do not forget to copy the cab file(enable rapi) to your device and run it before running lokiwiz.
Now run lockiwiz and unlock your machine, your machine will reboot itself. if yoy see an eroot while unlocking that says;
..............................................................................................................................................................................
CopyFileToTFFS(cidunlocked.bin:0, 0, 00010000)
ERROR: ITWriteDisk - An internal error occurred.
this means that you device not been unloked......try again............
.................................................................................................................................................................................
That’s it your wizard is unlocked. Make sure yew keep the [lock_backup.bin] in a safe place you may need it for guaranty purposes.
Now flash the latest aku2 rom from your provider.- [very important,to avoid future problems wit rom updates]
then u can flash any rom you want.
question: if i cid unlock and sim unlock my phone (after installing custom 1.5 wwe rom) and then i install latest aku2 i-mate italian rom, will the sim unlock (and cid one too) be preserved?
Answer: i can confirm that that upgrading to the latest aku2 rom the wizard remains cid unlocked.
Special thanks to the author of the above cooked rom [button] also to machinagod for the lokiwiz tool and joninla for finding the downgrade rom, molski for is input and everyone that contributed to the cause.
do not try to downgrade using an older wizard rom other than the one posted above it will not work
also this {how to} is for the htc wizard only it may work with other devices but i don’t know, so if you turn you device into a brick do not blame me. use it at your own risk
if you device is from a operator like: 02, orange etc... You will void your guaranty unlocking cid, but don’t despair, if you keep the [lock_backup.bin] file that the lockiz tool generated you can restore cid to factory default.
this proccess only needs to be done once in the wizards lifetime.
Enjoy;

donate if you like my work

Faria, can you tell me if this process will do it for the HTC Prophets with rom 2.x ???

I've got an imate JAMin with aku2 from factory. Just downloaded older Imate Rom... will try the process when i get home
8) wish me luck

maybe if you find an older rom for you device i only have a wizard.take a look at the lokiwiz tread i belive tha someone mentioned the HTC Prophets.

it may be possible,if you have an old custom rom for your device ,found this;
On the one hand, HTC Prophet is a complete copy (both software and hardware are meant) of HTC Wizard. On the other hand, it's equal to HTC Magician in appearance. That is why today review will be quite short, we will only discuss external elements and a new camera, all other aspects were highlighted in the review of HTC Wizard.
http://www.mobile-review.com/pda/review/htc-prophet-en.shtml

Hi Faria, thank you for your HowTo!
Now i know the wizard remains CID unlocked after the upgrade and that's good. I only hope that it stays SIM unlocked too.
Bye

Sadly, cant move back to older rom... keep getting error message saying the nk.nbf file is not valid/older than your current file.
I guess we just have to wait for an updated version of Lockiwiz

sh*t forgot to post the address to the downgrade rom.here it ftp://xda:[email protected]__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe

haaa you have the prophet
dont do that it may turn the prophet into a brick the only way is to find an old custom rom for your device. take a look at the ftp site it may have one there.
sorry

I told you Faria that it can be done
Great that it worked out okay, I can imagine how happy you are feeling right now
Nice how-to by the way.

mm..i am currently using T-mobile MDA Vario with the original rom
is that mean i don't have to apply it to unlock the cid?
i just use the lokiwiz 2b to unlock the CID, after it, even i upgrade to the newest rom e.g. the new O2 rom, my CID still remain unlock?

Be careful when flashing CID locked devices, this ROM has higher bootloader version: 1.07.0000 Shipped
Most probably this version will enforce CID checking.

I thought so too. It certainly won't work on mine since it is an HTC and not a Dopod. I wonder if we could use the same novenderID installer used with the Prophet and just install extracted the files? I suppose the trinity could need a new version. What do you think?

do we have some sort of bootloader downgrade o noid solution ?
thanks

It's not possible to do a _noID utility for Trinity AFAIK. CID is checked by bootloader, and rom upgrades use NBH format.

This news is very depressing. That means that people with an HTC device will never be able to use Dopod ROMs or cook up new ROMS, for instance the GPS enabled? That's no fun. Maybe we just have to get the Trinity unlocked?

yes, you need to cid unlock it to do such thing. Is exactly the same thing as happens with hermes.

Use TyTn utils for unlock CID very dangerously!
because, for CID unlock it is necessary downgrade SPL to 1.04 (by default bootloader 1.06)

I didn't mean to use Hermes CID unlocker on trinity, that would definitely brick the device because it flashes a wrong radio.
You guys need to work together to develop a method to CID unlock the trinity, but this will take some time, first you have to gather info about the device and post it in the wiki... bootloader part is most important.

Hi, anyone has used this new ROM from dopod? What are the changes? I was not able to find any release notes.

How can i know if my device is CID locked?

has anyone extracted the extended ROM from the Dopod D810 handset?
I would like to have a sneak peak into anything that might be useful for the hermes.
thanks in advance
Ronny

1)how can i tell if my device is htc or dopod?
2)how can i tell if i have a CID locked device?

bootloader command 'info 2' will answer both questions

Can someone summarize the CID locking for someone unfamiliar (or point me to a thread to read)?
I have an HTC-branded, unlocked Trinity that I want to keep up to date.

WM6 and 2.21.4.1

Hi, I need some help here as I cannot get WM6 on my Wizard.
My Wizard has a ROM version of 2.21.4.1 WWE and whenever I try to put WM6 on it, the updater program gives me error 300 and says it needs a new updater.
Now I have been looking around and i know I have to unlock the CID. The Sim is unlocked and I unlocked the CID using Lokiwiz 0.2. While doing this, i noticed it did give an error, but it did actually say it unlocked the CID and produced my backup and a unlocked CID BIN.
I tryed using the updater again and it gave me the same error (Error 300).
Can anyone advise me on what to do as I am completely lost...
Thanks
Shiraz

Let me guess.... you got a G4 device. It can't be CID-unlocked through lokiwiz (don't believe it if it says it did CID-unlock). Look at the G4 thread on howto flash a CID-locked G4! Never flash IPL/SPL because you will brick you're device!

You find all answers to your doubts by looking into G4 thread initially. After, you find another sticky thread related.
Just go for it!
good luck!

Help With CID-Unlock

Hi to all.
Mi Mteor have SPL2.05 and is application unlocked now.
The instructions says that i have to get hardSPL-1.40 in order to can CID-UNLOCK the device. Where i donwload it?
When i run the AUTO_Unlock_v3a.bat , the device no reboot in bootloader mode. Only get a blank screen.
Please, help me.
Yhanks. Sorry for mi bad english.

just read wiki and other posts here... it is still explained here...
you have to enter the bootloader a nother way.. because when using the normal cid unlock file you use a herm enterbl.exe ...
but i prefer to use sspl and not to supercid the device...

I read it. Perhaps i don´t understand everything, because english is not my primary language.
I see the are two metods to unlock the sim and CID. Supercid or SSPL.
I want to unlock the sim and update the rom.
Thanks a lot.

for simunlock just look into the threads in the past here... (pages on bottom of forum) ... theres somewhere explained how...
maybe i have also entered some infos in wiki...
for updating rom the easiest way is to app unlock the phone (to launch unsigned apps -> wiki) and then copy the sspl files to phones root...
a *.lnk file a exe file and a rom file...
launch the lnk file and then start the update you want!! ...
with the sspl method your phone is for one! start and only for that one! supercided! so that means you can install any rom ... no matter what provider is the rom from..
also you can flash than cooked roms... with no cid inside... (like my german rom...)
but remember ... when flashing because what ever not work, and you cant boot the phone up to relaunch the files... you have a problem when you don't own a, in your case so far i can see, a Vodafon Shipped Rom for Breeze...
innocent here in forum has the problem... vodafon gives no shipped rom out...
maybe you can ask them from different sides .... my vodafon partner here in austria (a1) did not offer the breeze... so i can't ask them... (i work in the co company...)

Dopod with 1.11.0001 IPL/SPL bricked

Hello,
I'm a new one on this great forum so first of all I'd like to send greetings to all of you.
I've searched and read a lot of posts on this forum as well as on another ones, but unfortunately I couldn't find a solution for my problems.
I have purchased a bricked Dopod with HTC logo on it. Previous owner told me that it was Dopod (I don't know exactly which one - C800 or C858) with a Chineese WM 5 OS. He was trying to make HardSPL but he didn't realize that it is recommended for Heralds with higher IPL/SPL.
Now I can only launch Bootloader (with IPL/SPL 1.11.0001) mode but still without oportunity to flash - even with RUU from Dopod (RUU_Herald_DOPODASIA_WWE_1.7.707.3_02.69.90_Ship_R.exe). This RUU seems to be too old for my Dopod. I couldn't find any other (newer) one.
Has anybody got RUU for Dopod suitable for 1.11.0001 IPL/SPL? Or maybe someone who owns working Dopod with IPL/SPL 1.11.0001 could make a backup of his ROM and we could change the mentioned RUU to be able to flash 1.11.0001 SPL?
What do you think?
I'm waiting for your responses and opinions.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Martin.

Hello again.
I have some new ideas.
Could someone verify if I'm on the right track?
I have used NBHextract tool to extract .nbh file from RUU_Herald_DOPODASIA_WWE_1.7.707.3_02.69.90_Ship_R.exe and realized that there are 2 .nb files which are SPL and IPL for my DOPOD. During editing those 2 files we can notice that they include "1.09.0001" string. File 01_G4IPL.nb includes only one "1.09.0001" string and file 00_G4SPL.nb includes just two "1.09.0001" strings.
What if I'll change those strings to "1.11.0001", as it's shown now in the bootloader on my device, and than recompile .nbh file for using in RUU process...
Will it work without total bricking my DOPOD?

as i know it, all the spl flashing methods other than original RUU (it needs to be signed) require a 4+ SPL/IPL. I would just send it in. Changing the string won't work because it's not identified by name but function

I'm just wondering how the ROMUpdateUtility is checking if dedicated .nbh suits to current SPL and IPL. As I've mentioned above, I've tried to use official DOPOD Herald RUU (with SPL/IPL 1.09.0001 included) and it doesn't suits my device with 1.11.0001. Why? CID should be the same and the only differences are in SPL and IPL. As it's official RUU I thought it would work even on my device with higher SIPL/IPL. When I realize that it doesn't work I'm wondering if the way with changing the SPL and IPL strings in .nbh file will do the job.
Now I think that the reason of non flashing, even with official RUU, could be corrupted CID-block after using HardSPL with low IPL/SPL. I've read thread about similar problem with Wizard. The question is: how to restore the CID block in our bricked devices? I'm not even sure if this theory with CID-block is a reason...
What do you think about such a trick:
- Run RUU on someone's working HTC device but only until the moment, when it wants you to click the last button to finally proceed with flashing. (This step is to let RUU to know that this RUU is correctly dedicated to our device). It's a kind of fake for RUU, cause our CID doesn't much the CID of ROM included in RUU.
- Next disconnect working device from the USB and connect your bricked device with launched bootloader mode
- Next click the final button to launch flashing in RUU application. If the process of CID matching was done before thit step, the flasher should start and let us flash our bricked device. But I'm sceptic to this solution. If it was so trivial, everyone could flash his device with different ROMs so easy...
I can't try this trick cause I don't have working HTC. What do you think? Will it work or not?
