Is there a Rom that will allow the AT&T software to be installed on the Tmobile Wing (Herald)?
Also how would you be able to CID unlock this to install other software on it? I already have it sim unlocked but not CID unlocked.
Thanks for any help.

To CID unlock it, you'll have to use HardSPL.
What AT&T software are you refering to?

Rom or software needed to be able to run at&t, or is it not needed? was thinking of the radio, windows mobile, etc., and how would I be able to setup the at&t network (media net, network settings, etc)?
I switched from tmobile to at&t and want to have the wing as a full backup phone.
I now have the at&t tilt 8925 (kais100) with my new at&t acct and loving it.
Thanks for the quick reply.

I have att, all you need is a unlocked phone. You can install whatever you want. At least, so far I have had no problem installing all the software I needed.

Exactly as caribbean_spur said. If the data plan is what you're worried about, just install Network Wizard and run the AT&T setup in it.

Sounds great. Where would I get the network wizard? Hate to be a pain but tried to find it and want to make sure I got the right one.
Thanks

Hi there,
Okay, this might sound a little basic question, but I will really appreciate if anyone can get me some answers on these.
I plan to buy a cingular 8125. I need to unlock this phone to be able to load my country's sim in it. However, even after unlocking, the phone will still have the original cingular ROM in it. Does the 8125 ROM, allow me to customize the GPRS settings ie. to be able to specify APN and other settings given to me by my cellular provider to use GPRS.
The reason for asking is becuase, long back when I was small I had a nokia6610 from tmobile. Even after unlocking, it simply didnt allow me to customize gprs access points as they were disabled in the software. I had to get it flash loaded with the original nokia software to get it to work.
Can anyone tell me if, even after unlocking I can still customize gprs settings for a different provider. Also, again if I wish to have the latest Kjam rom "K-JAM_WWE_216901_2169101_020710_ship.zip" on this phone, is it required to remove the CID lock too ?
From my understanding, CID locks are required to be removed first on any HTC variant before being able to flash load imate kjam ROM in it.
I have researched a lot on net for this procedure for flashing latest ROM. Can any experienced gurus here tell me how easy/difficult it is. And also, if any problem can result in permanent damage to phone ?
Thanks for your help in advance.
YES. use aWizard or lokiwiz. I used aWizard. You can brick your device if you don't.
hey im new here...
i was wondering i have a cingular 8125 and was wondering if possible to unbrand the cingular logo and stuff on the phone? also how would i go to upgrade the 8125 to windows mobile 6? thanks!
READ... Check the WIKI .. all the information you need is there.. READ, read and READ some more... if you don't read and learn all you can about upgrading your phone you WILL destroy the device.

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.
Hello all. A noob here. I am getting an unlocked Wing and I am planning to reflash it in order to use it on Cingular/ATT Network.
I've looked and couldn't find step-by-step instructions on flashing.
I have the roms that I need downloaded already, but I didn't know if it is as easy as it appears to be. (WM6 WWE v3 +/- TouchFlo)
Do I take the sim card out before reflashing? Do I plug in the device, Turn activesync on, then double-click on the rom?
If someone can reply with the step-by-step process, that'd be great!
Thanks in advance.
You don't need to flash it with new ROM in order to use it on ATT. All it needs is to be SIM unlocked and you should be able POP your ATT SIM in and go. If you want to experiment with custom ROM's your phone would need to be CID unlocked first. I don't know if there is an easy/free CID unlocking tool for Wing, but "search" is a helluva feature
thanks
Yes, so it is SIM unlocked, and I can pop my SIM in and make calls. However..........I do believe T-Mobile locks their browsers and I can't edit the GPRS/Network settings in order for me to use the phone for the internet. That is mainly why I want to reflash--getting rid of the t-mobile crap would be nice too
So Flashing instructions...or, if someone can't link me to some source that would be great! Thanks.
ok, CID unlocked.
So plug it in, connect activesync and flash away?
nevermind, i get it hehe.. i found some instructions here that can be tailored to install other roms:

I have been following all these threads with much interest and thank in advance all you wizards out there for all your hard programming work. However, as a NUBE I have some (possibly lame) questions about what flashing a Tilt with the HTC Kaiser ROM will allow one to do. Please be gentle, here goes:
1) If I buy a Tilt, then use HardSPL to flash it with the HTC ROM, will I then be able to use ANY SIM card worldwide in addition to the AT&T SIM? What about a MaxRoam SIM Card?
2) Will the newly flashed phone continue to work with AT&T? Has this been VERIFIED by people in the US?
3) Will I be able to sign up for and use TeleNav on the flashed phone if I want to?
4) Are there ANY good reasons to spend $750 on an unlocked Kaiser when a Tilt can be had for $299?
Thank you all in advance for your kind assistance.

No, this only CID (carrier ID) unlocks the phone, not sim unlock.

You will need to install TeleNav in order for it to work. No idea where you'll get it but I think it's a download from AT&T

Unless you need an unlocked Kaiser to use on a different network, they are pretty much the same phone so you don't need to spend any more money for the Kaiser.

Actually, just find the post in the Upgrading forum that has all the AT&T cabs and install it from there.
Hello,
how can I downgrade a AT7T tilt 8925 WM6.1 to Wm6.0 I want to unlock it.
Do I need to have a sim card in the phone to unlock it?
no. but you need to run simlock.exe which is in the windows folder. All of it's right here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=361039
(a la bill lumbergh) If you could just go ahead and RTFM that would be terrific.

Are you sure you have 6.1? AT$T has not released a 6.1 upgrade for the Tilt. If you are sure that you have 6.1, then it must be a cooked rom . In that case all you have to do is re-flash to whatever rom you want.

if all you want to do is sim unlock your device than the only thing you need to do is pick up the phone and call att. The will give you the unlock code with in 5 minutes. (just tell them you are going over seas and need the unlock code).
If however you want to flash a rom to your device .. than you need to flash hardspl; a simple search "hardspl for kaiser" will pull all info you need. and after that you need to read the kaiser wiki section on rom flashing.
Once you have full understanding of what you are doing than happily proceed
I look at the my Rom version and it is 1.57.502.2.
and my Radio Version is a 1.27.12.11
So is that a WM 6.1 or just a 6.0.

That is the original AT$T 6.0 rom . AT$T has not yet upgraded that rom to 6.1
If you want to unlock your phone to use on another carrier, just follow the steps on this wiki:http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Kaiser

Can someone please help me figure out what to do? Do I, or do I not downgrade before I can sim/cid unlock?
My current phone is
R 1.65.21.18
G 25.88.40.05h
D 3.57.00.00
I have already loaded the Hard SPL, and am wanting to Flash soon. I have been reading for the last 4 days, and keep reading so many admins telling us to search and read, but there is soo much info out there, that it is hard to tell what is needed.
Also, Can someone explain the difference between a cid and superCID?
Liquidd.
Just make sure you have the proper hardspl for 6.0 and make sure you follow
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=433835
and you are done.
You really should read until your eyes actually bleed. j/k
That worked great. Thanks a lot.
