The reason is dear that you did not CID unlocked your phone and upgraded to ipl/spl 3.08.You didn't follow the guide correctly.
Rules of the forum are to read,read and read fully to understand and only than go for the upgrade,lol
Anyway if it's a G3,which I'm sure it is,otherwise if it happen to be a G4,man you had it,it wud had been an expensive piece of paper weight on your desk, and loading the same previous,read the guide and try to downgrade to ipl/spl 1.xx,than correctly follow the unlocking guide,ok
good luck
Please read and follow the [Definitive guide] clicking here.
You don't have to be CID unlocked to flash the 3.08 IPL/SPL. If you're not though I would suggest holding off on it until you do because of the serious problems people have been encountering when trying to go back down to a 1.xx IPL/SPL. It could cause you to never be able to CID unlock.
YES!
Of course,it's not necessary to CID unlock for upgrade to 3.08,cuz it's just an upgrade to latest Bootloaders,IPL/SPL 3.08 and keep using the current official Carrier's Rom and pray that your carrier might someday provides with a wm6 oggicial upgrade...But if you are looking to upgrade to a newer wm6 custom build Rom,well,it's recommended and wise to unlock first and than upgrade to ipl/spl 3.08,cuz unlocking is only possible in ipl/spl 1.xx and after upgrade to 3.08,BAh!!,and downgrading to 1.xx for unlocking...... it's where things start getting rotten and it becomes a pain in the neck.
moteur
So, I must say you missed the bus of an easy option to unlock,I still don't say that it can't be done,it's very much possible,only now it wud take some efforts to get down to 1.xx,anyway,when there's a will,there's a way,lol,or take xeno1's advise and stick to what it's worth for,good luck

hey folks. i think i need to reflash my spv m3000 because it keeps restarting and the phone is reaaaly sluggish..
IPL 1.09
SPL 1.09
GSM 01.04.10
OS 1.9.1.1
This is what i have got. i have no clue whatsoever if this rom is good or not but it doesn;t seem to do the trick for me..
i have be reading for some weeks but i am still unsure wether my phone is CID locked or not. or what rom should or can i use.
i still don;t understand the G3 G4 difference and why everybody talks about 2.xx spl and ipl and i have 1.09....
could anybody please translate all this technical details into english? i have no intention of bricking the device..so i am folowing the advice in all tutorials "if u n't know what you are doing ..ask first"
i have some more questions:
are the new roms more stable or at least faster? because this one keeps restarting randomly.
cand somebody really give me some step by step information on what i need to do?
how can i back up this original firmware..so if the upgrade doesn't work i would still be able to reflash it back
i am mentioning that the phone was sim locked and i uset lokiwiz tool to unlock it.
ftp://xda:[email protected]_US_226102_22610105_022511_WWE_Ship.exe
I would use this one, it's safe, original.
i would appreciate if you could answer al my q's..i am not ready to flash it without knowing if i am cid ocked and what is that...etc
I thought you mentioned you unlocked it.
The ROM is stable, all the posts like Beta, Unhappyhousewife etc. have thgis one as basis.
About your Backup, to be honest I don't have clue because I never had or wanted to go back.
ok. my main concern is about the 1.xx spl and ipl comaptibility. all i could find aroundhere was said about 2.xx
i am afraid to upgrade untill i know for sure what my 1.xx means in practical terms
did u have 1.xx before upgrading?
I did,yes.
Most of us start with 1.
thanx man. so without sounding stupid i will ask for final instructions.
correct me if i'm wrong.
i will have to cid unlock the devicei first using lokiwiz 2
then i will be able to use the rom u suggested?
Hi All,
I have not been able to unlock my Cingular 8125... to upgrade the thing to WM6.
Yip ran the lockwiz a few times... it did give me some write error though.
...
CopyFileToTFFS(unlocked.bin:0, 0, 00010000)
ERROR: ITWriteDisk - An internal error occurred.
result=80072746
Your phone is now unlocked...
My phone is a G3. I can use different sims. But I cannot CID unlock? I have used lokiwiz and awizard... what else can I do to CID unlock?
I am currently downloading your rom.I have not tried any roms as I am quite new to this. I have flashed my 8125 to - IPL1.01 SPL 3.08 gsm 01.12.10 os1.5.4.2.
I have also tried several time to downgrade to button... no joy, the spl wont go. I have upgraded to both ipl/spl3.08 and still cannot upgrade the rom.
Thanks,
SanMan
Did you read the sticky with the guide to an easy and safe unlocking by Dr. Puttingham? If you did then you should have read with more attention.
You've messed up your phone's bootloader. It's not supposed to have such different values. If you didn't unlock it before moving to SPL 3.08 you won't be doing it now as it must be 1.xx for lokiwiz and other tools to work.
Go READ threads of others in same situation as you and be sure to have a FULL battery before starting the flashing process.
great thanks for that... so since my spl and ipl are not the same I need to try to downgrade my spl to the same version of button?
Bud I have read and read and read... and now I have only posted. I see that people in my predicament look for a rom called 1.18 from cingular and apparantly that fixes the problem so I can downgrade and re-run my cid unlock. I will read through all of Dr Putting threads where I have also posted to try to resolve this. Thanks for you constructive assistance.
Kind regards,
SanMan
We were all at this point in our lives sometime.
Need rom for downgrade
hi SandfordE,
Could you please send me the link or the file that downgrade the rom to 1.xx. i have tried to looking for so much time but sill can't not. all link is dead.
please, thank you for your help
the blind leading the blind.
well the only one I have been able to get is this one, from Dr putting
http://rapidshare.com/files/18212239/CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe.html
I cannot find the 1.xx cingular rom which apparantly you need if you dont follow dr p, goodies properly.
Apparantly if you goto http://www.htcwizardweb.net/node/161 and register there is a pathetically slow download link for 1.8x... which should be able to change the ipl and spl to the same thing.
hope this helps you. Please dont run or upgrade anything on ure phone till both the ipl and spl are 1.x that where I made my mistake.
Being a techie I guess thats our problem always wanting to upgrade with out rtfm.
hth
San
Thank SanFordE
Downloading, then downgrade to ipl/spl 1.xx, then cidunlock then uprade to ipl/spl 2.xx then update to wm6.
Am i correct??
thanks again for your help
hi magic

why my ipl is 1.xx but the spl still 2.xx after flash sucessfully??
Thanks
Hi,
This worked for me, now i just need to flash the ipl/spl 2.xx then ready for wm6

Maybe try to flash with button from dr p sticky... but remember before you can do anything else the like run lokiwiz, the ipl and spl need to be 1.xx

wow, i'm impressed . You passed from asking for tutoring to giving good tips in no time. well done m8 . All you need now is to manage the successful downgrade.
Are you sure your phone is still locked? Check CID status with mtty.
Thanks for that tip
Got already will try this procedure again tonight... hopefully it works.
hi SanFordE,
now i'm on wm6. thank a lot for your support
Hi MagicEr,
How many times did you have to flash with 1.8.11
I have tried twice already and my spl is still 3.08...
Maybe downgrade to Wizard_Love 2.26? The rey the other way?
Any input is kewl...
no worries S
WM6 is lovely...
All fixed on WM6
Note to all good people, once you have flashed with 1.8.11 <-- this is only on a cingular 8125, even though the spl is 3.08, you can run your lokiwiz to CID unlock and then flash.
Many thanks to all the developers and contributors to this forum.

hmm not sure if the SPL is really 3.08 although it shows that.
The CID block protection is applied by SPL so if lokiwiz worked it means that the SPL did downgrade
Glad you fixed it though.
cheers
Can someone point me to an English version of this? The only one I can find linked on this site is http://rs25.rapidshare.com/files/17792050/Wizard_Love_2.26.10.2_WWE_Novii_CF2.rar. This is in another language (Italian maybe) and I keep getting a "300" error. Thanks.

Are you sure you have a G4 ?
No, I have a G3. But according to "How to flash a new ROM to your Wizard... a little tutorial!" http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298613, if I have an IPL/SPL of 2.xx, I need the wizard_love rom. Read last sentence of G.2.
I used the button ROM. It brought my IPL down to 1.01, but my SPL is still 2.25. Is that OK to proceed?
Keep reflashing the button ROM until both your IPL and SPL are 1.xx. It may take a few times. I think I've read where it's taken some people as many as 7 or 8 times to get them both down. Be patient and make sure your battery is good and charged and when you get them both down, then run lokiwiz to unlock your phone.

After at least 15 flashes with button, still no luck. I started with Cingular 2.25.
The button I am using is CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe.
My IPL is down to 1.01, but my SPL is still 2.25. How in the world do I get passed this?
It really sucks when you can't get past the first step .
P.S. Should the SIM be in the unit during the flash? I've tried it both ways.
Not sure if it matters if the sim in is in it or not, but make sure your SD card is out because that causes problems a lot of times. Here, download and try this, it is an IPL/SPL updater only. It has version 1.05 of both which might be able to bring your SPL down so you can unlock your phone.

Tried it several times. No luck, SPL still stuck at 2.25, but thanks for the help. Anyone else out there with this problem?
That's weird, usually it happens the other way around and people get their IPL stuck at 1.xx when they try to upgrade back to a 2.xx but the SPL upgrades without a problem. Since you already have the button ROM on there, go ahead and try and see if it will CID unlock for you. Run lokiwiz and see if it gives you any errors and if not, download and install Wizard Service Tools on to your computer and then run it and click the CID actions button to see if it tells you that your CID is unlocked. If it does then your safe to start upgrading. For some reason I have a feeling it might just work for you.
same here, got the cingular 8125 and flashed the rom. I can not get the spl down. I have 2.25 as well. ahhh what other rom should be good for a cid unlock
also i am on activesync as "guest" dont know if this matters

That doesn't matter.
Try flashing Tmobile 2.26 then again the 1.05 Button ROM
From what i know the Wizard Love is only for G4 Users. G3 users should flash Tmobile stoc 2.26
not all g3 are the same!!
i have experienced the same with my g3 (IPL/SPL 2.18) when i tryed to downgrade the spl... ipl 1.05 and spl 2.18 still remain... just try to unlock spl with lokiwiz02b and relax... i tried to install tnt 5.0 23 times before i unlocked the spl... just read and apply this : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285435
i downgraded and reupgraded my spl locked g3 (qtek 9100) in 45 minutes at the state of art...
-----------------------------------------------
tnx to all people that try and try and try and teach us with his experience...
I have found that the SPL doesn't matter. Go ahead and run lokiwiz and you will be ok.
yeah i got throught just run lokiwiz02b cid unlock and then update to tmo rom
I'm sorry if this a repost or not, but i'm currently following the Upgrade procedure for windows mobile 6, and it required me to downgrade to the button rom. Everything went smooth, but i wonder. The guy in the tourital says that my IPL and SPL is one on 1.xx and another on 2.xx, as mine is both at 1.xx. i have the T-mobile MDA version, and I'm following the G3 tourital. Currently now it's just sitting there, should i continue without worry or do i need to do it over again to get one at 1.xx/2.xx. Thanks for the support
Harlan.
No - if both your ipl/spl is at 1.xx - then you are good to go, continue on to the next step.
It appears that some users (such as myself ) have to run the buttom rom twice to get both ipl/spl to be the same.
My first pass with the button rom gave me ipl of 1.xx -and spl of 2.xx
Ran the button rom a second time - and all was good
Good luck
Remember to CID unlock, then Upgrade IPL/SPL before upgrading to WM6.
Read the guide carefully,it says, the while downgrading with Button's Rom you might probably get ipl 1.xx and spl 2.xx,reflash the button's rom a few times more till you get both ipl/spl 1.xx.Its required to have both ipl/spl 1.xx to apply lokiwiz02b to SIM/CID unlock the phone,so as you already got ipl/spl 1.xx,you are lucky and good to go to run lokiwiz02b and unlock,remember only after unlocking the phone,upgrade to ipl/spl 2.xx by flashing T-mobile 2.26,ok
cheers !
Thanks
Thanks you Guys, it Successfully installed with breeze. Now that i upgraded the rom by installing the 2.26 before WM6, I'm getting 200% better reception, like it would take an hour or more Just to get reception ANYWHERE!!!!, I'm not kidding. Now that i finished up and installed the black diamond WM6, as soon i hit the today screen, I'm already connected to t-mobile. Thank you everybody for telling me that I'm safe on continuing the installer with both 1.xx ipl/spl, because now i have better reception, touch, unlocked, MDA. Thanks xda-developers for the great information.
Harlan.
ok guys i f***** up my mda gets stuck at second splash screen the one that tells you ipl/spl and stuff
i was flashing a new rom using a prog called shelltool which i got from here as my device isnt cid unlocked i was using this rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=403096
dunno whats happened but now its stuck and cant seem to get it sorted here are some details
ipl 3.08
spl 3.08
gsm 02.69.11
os 2.18.0.0
i have tried using a rom update utility but doesnt work, please help
You can always flash back to your MDA stock ROM.
After flashing back, flash to Button's ROM to downgrade your IPL and SPL and unlock your CID. However due to your IPL and SPL is at 3.08, there is a possibility that you can downgrade IPL to 1.01, however SPL stays at 3.08. In that case, try unlock CID using Wizard Service Tool (Actually you can also use WST if both IPL and SPL version are 1.01).
Note: Never use ShellTool ever. There are methods now that use RUU to flash your favorite ROM, both for G3 and G4. You should use those methods instead.
the same thing happened to me when I was very hesitant on cid unlocking my 838 . I use shelltool in flashing and was successful but when i decided to give another shot on a different cooked rom, it certainly did its job on flashing but never got pass on the IPL SPL screen.
then I follow Dr. P's guide (CID unlocking) then I successfully resurrected my 838 and now I can flash whatever cooked rom I want (given that it is for a G3 device)
btw, after flashing my 838 with the buttons rom, I use WST instead of lokiwiz
HTHs
thanks
thanks for your help guys got it sorted and cid unlocked now
just need a really good rom now
and the hunting begins
good to hear that try to look for a rom that will suit your needs. There is a lot of good roms here, just try to search what best fit you.
like I did, i have flashed at least 5 different roms in just a months time
