Hello everyone. I have a Cingular 8125. I would like to know why when i try to cid unlock my phone, enablerapi does not do anything (restart my phone), and the lokiwiz.bat can not see my phone, even though everything else. Does it mean that my phone is already CID unlocked? Also, when i try to do it without the cid unlocker, my activesync connection shuts off after 30 seconds, and my phone needs to be reflashed. I baught the phone used off of ebay. It came with the original cingular ROM. I am trying to get WM6 on it.
Well TIA,
Whatismyphonecalled?

DOUBLE POST ?
You don't have to double post in every subforum and start a new thread to get your answer,wait for someone to help you out.This Forum is full of info relating to your problem,you just have to search and read,instead of posting and looking for shortcuts,don't be a lame.
Check your other thread .
i love to see newbie bricks !!
Before playing with CID unlocking procedure, do you know what are you doing?? Why do you want to unlock your CID?? Do you have G3 or G4 device?? Is the ROM safe for your device generation??
People... read. Otherwise you will brick your device.
I was involved in a small issue where lokiwiz wouldn't see my device, and it turned out to be a firewall. I was using my corporate laptop and they have some stupid crappy sygate firewall on there and I am unable to disable it or turn it off (even though I have "Administrative" rights). When I took it home to my home PC that was basically a sparkling clean install of Windows XP x64, everything worked as the directions said that it would.

I have the same problem. I bought a T-Mobile MDA from ebay and it has the 2.26 OS. I've been trying to install the new wm6 on the phone, but right before the update process starts, the active sync disconnects and the screen displays the colors. I've been tring this for months but been failing. I honestly need some help so if there is anyone out there who knows the solution to my problem, please help me.

Your phone is not CID unlocked,to verify if it's CID locked or unlocked,download the WST tool and run the 'CID Action' button to verify.

Eager to be able to use the GPS in my phone I began upgrading it with the new dopod-ROM. I unlocked it with the sspl-trin.exe and started the process. After approx 58% of upgrading it halted, complaining about communication error. The upgrade program asked me to remove the battery for 3 seconds. I did so and the screen returned to the red,green,blue-thing. The upgradeprogram now complains about the CID, since the sspl-trin.exe is not running, and it won't install the new ROM. Niether do I find a way to get back to my old ROM. I guess I need to install the old one again...
Where can I find an old ROM?
Can I fix the phone without reinstalling?
I'm stuck with the RGB-screen and can't do anything at all with my precious piece of plastic, so please help!

Check FTP for HTC shipping ROMs if your device was non-branded.
If upgrade soft complains about wrong CID for HTC ROM, try to run the upgrade program with a Dopod shipping version (so that it matches CID you currently have)?.
As a last resort you can try to perform the upgrade from miniSD card, refer to instructions elsewhere on this forum.
Technically as long as IPL and SPL are ok (which seems to be the case since you get to bootloader screen), it should be possible to flash one ROM or another one.
Good luck!
Ok, some additional information.
I've tried the english HTC ROM available on the xda-ftp but it complains about the vendor ID. Mtty.exe says that my ID is 'HTC__G09' and G09 probably refers to a swedish company in some way.
I threw away 20£ on an unlock that couldn't be run without active sync. This could be read in the instructions, but I kind of gave it a shot, beeing a poor student and all. :/ Oh God I'm stupid....
Now some additional questions...
Is it possible to get a working ROM from a similar device with the same vendor?
Is it possible that there is a file ready to send to me somewhere in the galaxy? Who should I ask to prevent myself from getting the "send it to us"-answer?
Try to update the ROM with matching CID of yr handset.Check Wiki reg this.After update if it stucks on the same screen then type "set 14 0" (without commas) in mtty utility.
Ok... Tried the miniSD-way but it didn't work. ("not allow" was the answer from my display) My CID differs from all in the list so it's really no surprise. The CID seems to be the key here.
My Dopod D810 (trinity) goes logo screen and stops running after an upgrade failure. I can run bootloader 1.07.0000 I also hope someone can upload an original ROM for my salvage.

If you create a .nbh with the CID as you device shows it, it might accept a cooked ROM with matching CID. If IPL/SPL gets damaged, though, it will get worse.
Hello folks I desperately need help, Ive just bricked my brand spunky new wizard G4 IPL/SPL 2.21.0001. I tried to do a Rom upgrade from shipped Rom to WM6, xm6 by mfrazz. I went through the process to 99% and then the progress meter changed from blue to red 99%, it stood there for awhile and gave the Error code 302. The screen is now in rainbow colours, it doesn’t do nothing. I need help please.

Thanks for the advise, No I did not CID unlock it, I read some where in the post it’s wasn’t necessery to CID unlock G4 wizard, unless I was day dreaming! I need detail help pls, the wizard is not responding to a any treatment from it current state. It’s in the rainbow coma if I may call it, if I take out the battery it obviously goes off completely. If I put the battery back in the rainbow colours comes back on and it doesn't do anything. In This circumstance, how am I supposed to flash it back to cingular ship rom, please explain? Many thanks
All you need to do is download the official T-Mobile ROM from their site and re-flash it. The fact that you are in the "rainbow" screen is a good thing because that's the bootloader and where you need to be to flash. After that, you may need to go through all the postings about flashing a G4 again a time or 2 because if you had read them you would have already known how to fix this problem.
I HAVE THE SAME PROBLOM!!!! ok can some one please tell me what i need to do to fix this problom im at the rainbow screen and i am just stuck! is there anyway to just get my phone back to normal?????????
First, connect your phone to your PC. Don't use an USB hub, plug it directly into the PC!
Then, start the phone. When it is in "rainbow" mode, just execute the flash utility (the original provider ROM) on your PC to begin the flash process..
This should work!

what can be done when this doesn't work? i have a message posted with details of my issue.

I was upgrading my t-mobile 8150(?) the k-jam with the new windows mobile 6 and in the middle of it my comp crashed!! now i am stuck at the bootloader mode (3 colored screen) and when i try to redo it i get to 99% and get a 302 error message. i follow the instructions given but keeps going in circles. its a G3 so is my phone bricked or is there a way to save it? i've been looking at this site all day but am now just more confused. lol thanks for your help!
No your phone isn't bricked. As long as you can get into the bootloader screen you should be ok. What you need to do is flash an official carrier rom either tmobile 2.26 or wizard love rom after you that than you can reflash to wm6. look at the stickies in the wizard forums that is where you can find these roms.
Thanks for the info but seems my techno curse continues. I tried the wizard love rom but it was in a different language and whem i tried the tmobile 2.26 i got "error 274 connection." Any more suggestions? Again thanks soo much for an issue I'm sure has been posted here a thouand times.
This happens to me all the time. I always use the Cingular 2.25 rom, it works perfectly and I have an I-mate K-JAM. Then, do the WM6 upgrade, but ensure all of your Norton and Antivirus and background running apps are shut down. Good luck.
yes also take out your mini sd card if you have one. even though its in another language it will work. "AVANTI means next. so just keep hitting that and you will be fine.
hmm been trying to d/l the Cingular 2.25 rom but the link seems to have stoped working...
It;s aaaaaaaaaaaaaaalllllllllliiiiiiiiiiivvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! for now lol Lets see what happens after i install wm6 I couldn't get the cingular rom but i had already dowbloaded the button rom i found here earlier and it worked like a dream!! quick and easy!! thank you all soooooo much!
hi all. one more little thing. after adding the new rom to get it back to life, now the numbers don't match so i can't upgrade to wm6. i have ipl 1.01 spl 2.26. advice?
flash to the tmo 2.26 or cingular 2.25...that will give you an IPL/SPL of 2.xx
then, you can flash to WM6
i want to delete this message. can't find a way to do it.
there's any other way to flash without usb cable?? sorry to bug in this thread but i lost my usb connection somehow and did a hard reset and still doesn't work. my phone charges. and no is not my computer cuz my wifes phone same as mine does sync i have a tmobile mda also known as the cingular 8125.

keep reflashing buttons rom until both ipl/spl are the same number. if they are different, then the flash didn't complete correctly. (it happens often, so it's kinda normal). just keep reflashing. after both ipl/spl are the same, then CID unlock and then update to an official carrier...then flash a wm6.
can anyone help me??
Check if "USB" displayed when in bootloader mode (Camera+reset) with Wizard connected to PC.
If so, you may try to flash another ROM through bootloader.

I was upgrading my MDA using the official mda update 2.26 and then the phone completely froze. When I soft-resetted the phone, it wont get off the T-Mobile load screen. I tried to hard-reset it using the voice+commanager to reset, but then it just goes back to the T-Mobile load screen. Can anyone help me? I also tried to flash the Wizard_Love on the 3 color screen but it keeps giving me error 200. Please I need your help.

Remove the sdcard/minisd and do a hard reset.
Bricked?
Hi all,
i have similar problem like Lo0o0nG.
Tried to flash wm6 on my g3 wizard following the wiki:
Flashed the Button ROM "CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE ROM" but after rebooting the wizard stucks in the first screen with the beer glass on it - showing IPL 1.01, SPL 2.21, GSM 01.12.10 and OS 1.5.4.2.
Then nothing else happens...
Did this 6 or 7 times before with g3 and g4 phones - worked perfectly till now..
Are there any suggestions / any possibility to get my phone working again?
thx,
derHarry
If the phone is CID unlocked use the SD/mtty method to restore the full ROM image.
If it's not CID unlocked then try to unlock it with WST and reflash the ROM(s)
Thank you for your fast reply!
It's not CID unlocked, but WST can't connect to the device...
any other suggestions?
I'm sorry but WST can't connect unless the OS has booted already. I didn't realize it when answering.
I guess the only solution now is to use the commercial unlocking solution by IMEIcheck.co.uk
Thank you for your suggestions,
i think i'll replace the touchscreen from this bricked device with the broken one from my other device... so it's not that tragical
btw: how could this happen? did i something wrong while flashing?

Yes. I believe you flashed a ROM without permission (CID unlocking) or an upgrade went wrong (stopped before finishinfg) and now the bootloader 1.xx can't load the OS because the 2.xx address is different and can't be found.

i posted this in another thread but no one replied so thought this one mite be more busy. forgive me if this is the wrong place to have posted this.
i am new to all this and i stupidly went running into things and tryed to ROM upgrade my t-mobile MDA Vario II (HERM300), not knowing i had to CID unlock first, it has broke! when i boot it up i can not get passed the t-mobile splash screen and it also flashes "no-gsm". i have read many suggestions on fixing this but i have had no luck. i can get into the boot screen however and get the red green and blue stripes.
i have IPL 1.01 and SPL 1.04.
it will allow me to connect to my PC with USB but active-sync does not recognize i have connected the phone.
please help someone. i just need a way i can get this thing working again. if i could just get the phone into a state of use again that would be good.

You say that your device is still able to enter bootloader...? If this is correct then you do not have a brick. I understand that you do not have a Wizard, but a Hermes.
This is what you need to do:
Download the Hermes Official WM5 T-Mobile Rom
Put your Hermes in bootloader mode
Connect to your PC via USB
Run the ruu_hermes_tmhu_1.21.116.4_1.05.02.00_wwe_ship.exe that you just downloaded and you should have a working Hermes again.
Next time you want to upgrade your phone, you will want to read into what you are doing VERY extensively. You will find volumes of information under the Hermes sub-forum or in the WIKI under Hermes.
Good luck. Post back here if this was helpful just so I know I didn't waste my time.(thanks)
Non-Free Way to Unbrick
I bought one of these that was bricked one time. (for super cheap). After hours of trying stuff I broke down and paid $30 at imei-check.co.uk They sim unlock and CID unlock all at once. The result was an UNBRICKED phone. I still sold it and made about $100 profit. I think an HTC employee with insider info runs the site. Good luck.
