Ok, I Bought A Cingular 8125 Phone Off eBay... And It Works Great.
I Bought This CD With Instructions On How To Get The iPhone Theme Touch Flo Etc.... With All Files And Everything Included.
When Receiving The CD, It Turns Out That My Phone Is Not Compatibile Due To The IPL Version.
It States That....
"The following method only works for the phone with version IPL/SPL as followed
• IPL: 1.xx *or* 2.xx *or* 2.xx.00x (Note that this version only has *TWO* 0's.)
• SPL: 1.xx *or* 2.xx *or* 2.xx.00x (Note that this version only has *TWO* 0's.)
DO NOT use this method with IPL/SPL 2.x.0001 (version has THREE 0’s )"
I Wanted To Know If It Is Possible To Downgrade The IPL So That It Only Has 2 Zero's ??
The SPL On The Phone Only Has 2 Zero's.... Why Not The IPL??
Please Get Back To Me.. Thank You!

NOPES !
Its not possible,you cannot downgrade an IPL 2.xx.0001 to 2.xx.001.IPL/SPL are the Bootloaders,these bootloaders are different for DOC Chip versions G3 and G4. A G3 DOC chip version will always have • IPL/SPL: 1.xx *or* 2.xx *or* 2.xx.00x (Note that this version only has *TWO* 0's.)
AND a G4 DOC chip version will have IPL/SPL 2.x.0001 (version has THREE 0’s ).
As your device is a G4 DOC chip version,this software will not work on it,coz its meant to be used with G3 devices.
Cheers!

can i now CID unlock it ? however i'm not sure it is CID Locked but i suppose it is because when i install costums ROMs here i have alwas somthing missed !! no ringtone or no skins ....
G3

I was using the Custom RUU Wizard 1050412 WWE 101 11210 WWE to downgrade my Cingular 8125 and after flashing the ROM information reads as follow on the boot screen
IPL: 1.01
SPL 2.26
GSM: 01.12.10
OS: 1.5.4.2
Why is the SPL still at 2.26?
shouldn't it go back down to 1.XX
DID I BRINK my fone??????? This is really pissing me off
You nice folks out there please help. I want to upgrade to the pdamobile 3.0 with crossbow icon ROM. Thanks
I wonder why there's a STICKY on top with READ FIRST.... Step 16 seems familiar too me.
Hi,
I read the sticky, unlock cid unlock reflash the rom to 1.XX twice and still the SPL is showing 2.26. Any other suggestion.
Run it twice and it will downgrade to the 1.xx on both ipl and spl. I did this yesterday. if your going up to the 3.3 eventually make sure you flash to a 2.XX before going full fledged 3.3. I thought I bricked my **** yesterday too, but luckily with the help of a few nice people on here, i got it worked out.
Hi,
I ran it 3 times with no luck. I don't know what I'm missing the IPL is at 1.01 but the SPL is still 2.26. Now when I ran Lokiwiz 2b for the Super CID unlock I get error message, file too big. Help. This is driving me nuts
try reflashing the 1.xx twice, then doing lokiwiz, are you using the right lokiwiz? I'm no pro, but maybe that will help?
and did you copy the enablerapi file?
which lokiwiz version u are using I used 2b and 3
I used 2b, did you copy enablerapi?
Hi all. Tried and tried in vain, to replace the T-mobile splash screen, only to find out that the phone is CID locked.
Managed to upgrade to WM6 though, thanks to vlodeck and nocturne.op.15
Here's the phone details:
IPL: 2.06
SPL: 2.06.0000
GSM: 02.19.21
OS: 10.2.0.8 (WM6 by vlodeck & nocturne)
Oh, and also worth mentioning, my PC is running on Vista Ultimate, on which RUU's don't work. But some people said that if I install VMWare Virtual PC and install XP on that, RUU works through it.
So, how to unlock CID of this phone?
Wish I knew!
I'm in the same boat, so please can someone advise, thanks.
to cid unlock to need a ver. 1.xx of ipl/spl. And seeing you have 2.xx you cant really downgrade to ver.1.x
but can you told me whats rom have ispl ipl 1.x??
ok so saying you have ipl 1. what ever how do you cid unlock?
ftp://[email protected]/Up...er_1120223_11202110_11220_T-MobileUK_Ship.rar
will have ipl and spl ver 1. wherever you can get to install or not, might work with a noID ruu. then you can use lokiwiz2 to unlock the CID
There are rom versions that have 1.xx IPL and SPL but from my own experience I know, that once you upgraded to 2.xx or more, you cant get back to 1.xx. The most you can get is 1.xx IPL and 2.xx SPL.
Cheers,
vlodeck.
So, What ROM we must flash? To have 1.xx IPL and 2.xx SPL?
Maybe offtopic, but I have another question: If I have ROM from ERA GSM POLAND can I flash AKU3.3 TMobileUK ROM?
Charmer community is so small.... ;(
adexxx, you misunderstood me. You can't get 1.xx IPL and 1.xx SPL once you've already upgraded to 2.xx.
If it's an official ROM then you can flash it no problem. If its a custom ROM, use the tool I described in WM6 charmer thread.
When I tried to update with RUU: RUU_Charmer_38221_382127_026921_TMO_HR_WWE_Ship it showed error: INVALID VENDOR
What I'm doing wrong?
use wizard noID upgrade utility. it's some around here, maybe even in charmer forum.
OK, I flashed and it works fine.
Now I have 3.0 IPL&SPL, my 1st splash was changed.
[offtopic end]
I have version 2.25 of the IPL/SPL for the cinguler 8125.
How do I upgrade it?
If you are not going to upgrade WM6, you don't need to upgrade IPL/SPL. (Actually, IPL 2.25 is already strong enough to use WM6, 3.08 only provide a little performance improvement)
I have upgraded to 6.0, which is why I am looking for the IPL upgrade
Read the sticky (The Definitive Guide...), there is link to 3.08 IPL.
Thanks very much
Hi, just got my wizard the other day (Used off ebay, Unlocked). I've been reading thru all the upgrade posts and I've come up with some questions I'd like to ask before I take the plunge.
First, the info from my wizard.
=====================================
Wizard Service Tool v4.2.1
=> Bootloaders:
IPL: 2.25 (G3 device)
SPL: 2.25 (G3 device)
Built on May 12 2006 at 00:37:41
=> Firmware:
OS: 5.1.xxx (Build 14928.2.2.0)
ROM: 2.25
Registry AKU: .2.2.0
Radio: 02.25.11
Protocol: 4.1.13.12
=>Extended_ROM:
Version: 2.25.11.102
Name: Extended_ROM
Status: hidden
======================================
1. Since I used WST to get the info, it said the first thing to do was hit the Enab. RAPI + Unsigned Apps button, which I did. Is this the the same as copying the EnableRapi.cab from the lokiwiz instructions?
2. Will the CID unlock in WST work with this phone or did I need to use the lokiwiz method? Minus the SIM unlock since it's already done.
3. I saw a post about formatting the EXT ROM to get rid of the carrier branded stuff, in this case cingular. Can I do this before I do the button rom downgrade/Tmobile 2.26 Rom install? The only reason I want to do this is so the cingular stuff doesn't get put back in whenever I do a hard reset.
4. Last one! I see that the IPL/SPL can be upgrade by itself. Should this be done or just keep whatever comes with the rom you install?
I'am sure most of these have been answered before, but after several days of reading I just wanted to double check and make sure I knew what I was doing.
Thanks......Grinch843........

Yes,you can CID unblock the phone with WST tool but first you'll have to downgrade to IPL/SPL1.xx by flashing the Button's Rom 1.05,It's mandatory to have ipl/spl 1.xx for CID unlocking,However, lokiwiz02b method is more recommended.You shud also check with WST tool by hitting the 'CID Action' button,if it might be CID unlocked already,as its SIM unlocked.
There's no need to formate the EXT Rom,as you'll be flashing Button's and T-mobile,it'll automatically get replaced by the External Roms of these Roms and the cingular External Rom will be replaced.
When you'll flash Button's Rom,it'll replace the IPL/SPL to 1.xx,required for CID unlocking,but when after CID unlocking,you'll flash T-mobile,it'll upgrade to 2.26,which is must for upgrade to wm6 there's no need to upgrade the ipl/spl manually.
All the latest custom build wm6 Roms don't include any IPL/SPL upgrades in them,so the Ipl/SPL will remain as 2.26,There's nothing to worry about,as its the most stable bootloaders (IPL/SPL)
Cheers!
Thanks for info --- Soon as I backup everything I'll give it shot and see what happens.....
