I have a K-Jam with rom version 2.16.9.104 (Norwegian Rom)
Is it possible for me to get a English rom?

Yes, just update your ROM with one available in whatever language you want.

choose one here, make sure your sim is unlocked.
SIM lock isn't important for switching Rom, CID unlock is.

I have tryed to CID unlock the device but it seems that it does not manage to do it.
It comes up with an error that it si not able to copy cidunlocked.bin but then it says that the phone is unlocked. but when i tryed to uppgrade the rom it says that it is not posible because of wrong vedner id.
I have tryed using aWizard-V1_3beta2 and Lokiwiz02b.
Downgrade to a 1.x Rom then CID unlock.
Hi People
I am new to upgrading. Before I get the business of "you have not read the posts" I have read the posts. That's why I am writing here. The more I read, the more contradicting it is. I have the following:
T-Mobile MDA Unlocked SIM
IPL/SPL 2.26.0001
GSM 02.25.11
OS 2.26.10.2
I know this is a G4, but I have read that you can flash a ROM to an locked CID, but other areas say you cannot. I also have seen many different guides to flash, but some say the CID have to be unlocked others don't. I also have not seen whether the original ROM is saved in case you want or need to put it back. I have also read that you may have to input the GSM settings (I use Rogers in Canada). I bought this unit on eBay unlocked and all I had to do was put in my SIM card and it worked. Will the same happen if I upgrade the ROM? I find after reading so many threads it seems so confusing and was hoping someone here could help me out as you all seem to love flashing ROMs.
Thanks so much in advance,
Mike
Read some more and took a chance and it worked

hi,
ok,now let me try to explain in plain words,
1. U cannot for sure upgrade to a newer rom untill u r CID unlocked, now as u say u got ur wizzard from ebay.now it must have come with a pre-installed OS,plz check from which carrier it is from.If its Cid locked than it can only be upgraded with that official rom from which it came pre-installed with. But if u want to upgrade to some other wm6 cooked rom than u'll have to get it Cid unlocked.
now to upgrade,do the following:-
a)If u want to upgrade with official rom from which it came preinstalled,than visit the official site and download the official rom for ur exact device and upgrade without any Cid unlocking process ,its fairly self explanatory,how to upgrade with official rom as it comes with a self upgrade romutility.
b) if u want to upgrade to any other wm6 cooked rom,than i'am afraid u'll have to CID unlock ur device.As u say u have a G4 device there's a different procedure to Cid unlock it than G3.It's done with a utility tool called SHELLTOOL.search and read how to go about it.First download a tool "WST tool" by Mestrini ,install it and check if ur device is Cid locked or unlocked.If u find it locked than adopt the Cid unlock method through SHELL tool,if its already Cid unlocked than go ahead & flash with any wm6 rom.
As for ur question about sim unlocked,its different being from CID unlock.with sim unlocked u can put any carrier sim and use ur device.But with Cid unlock u can upgrade to any rom u desire.
Well, once SIM/CID unlocked it remains unlocked forever,unless u personelly don't lock SIM/CID.
Well,I believe if it came SIM unlocked, than it might be CID unlocked also.cuz all the carriers never give Sim unlocked.but than there might be some exceptions.therefore u must get it confirmed before any upgrade.
Hope I was able to clear some of ur doubts.goodluck

@zabardast_1 dude..
@Miker2006
Upgrading won't affect your Sim unlock status, it's permanent.
You don't NEED to CID unlock your phone to upgrade:
You can use Soft SPL to make the phone temporary think it's CID unlocked (while flashing).
Or you can semi-permanent let the phone think it's CID unlocked by Hard SPL.
This SPL will mimic a CID unlocked state, so you can flash all kinds of ROMs to your device.
BTW ShellTool WON'T cid unlock your device, Hard SPL is the closest you get to a Free CID unlock.
Best regards,
EquinoXe
PS. Read the stickies before Flashing, don't turn your wizard into a brick.
Actually it is a good show case that reading helps .. one day after his post Miker2006 did ..

I'm just starting to disperate ... I have a trinity from Orange ( SPV M700 ) but i need use it with a "Movistar" SIM, i mean, I need a SIM unlock terminal.
I've readed all post and instruccions about the process. I'm trying to use "HTC_Trinity_SIM_CID_Unlock_v1.zip", basically the process i'm testing it's the following:
1.- in bootloader mode do a IPL Downgrade to 1.16.00.00 patched.
2.- upload to phone the unlocker appz and run it.
3.- had-reset and test with Movistar SIM.
But never works i've tried the process thousand of times but always the same result
Please, any1 could help me ??? I you could see any error in my unlock process please don't hesitate in contact me.
Tnks in advance
hi there! just tried to run WWE stock rom update but get invalid vender id error. Does anybody know how this can be solved?
You will need to CID unlock your phone before you can flash non-OEM ROMs. As far as I can tell from the Jade ROM Development thread, HardSPL does not yet exist for the Jade.
ok, thanks! Guess I'll have to wait another while for it then...
CID unlocking
hi, anybody around who has a tool / knows how to CID unlock a jade?
The device is pretty new and it takes time for someone to figure out a way.
Other hand, I dont think Olipro or other senior members would get this device just for CID, SIM unlocks and Hard SPL.
So maybe you guys may need to wait a little longer..
Regards,
Carty..
Hi
I am new here and i'm a little confuse, i want to cid unlock my Orange Htc Touch 3g (allready Sim unlock) couse of the Unique. I have seen a lot of posts for the Elfs and i am not sure if i can use one for the Jade, and which one?
And want to make sure after a sucseed cid unlock, may i flash other language ROM?
Thank you
nuno
CID unlock is now Hard SPL. There is a n00bs tutorial here which will help you flashing ROMs: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=514406, any further problems, feel free to ask in that thread.
Good luck.
