orange tytn II unlockable?

Well I would like to get another software because the orange software is pretty much the worst one you can get.
I’ve been trying to update from wm6 to wm 6.1 but I had to hard reset my phone many times cause whenever I try to flash the rom, I get that white screen that stay at 0% during the whole process to finally see an error not on the devise but well from the software (running on vista).
Please help!!!!!!

few things to remember befoe u do anything to ur phone:
1) read kaiser wiki
2) from wiki follow links on how to flash hardspl on to ur device.
3) go to kaiser rom development forum and read the first sticky containing info about flashing.
flashing hardspl will cid and sim unlock ur device.
Plz do read and search or u will mess up ur toy.

isn't there an issue with flashing orange ones something to do wit the radio and not to change it? I want to flash mine but the wiki isn't too clear on orange versions

doesn't matter what stock rom u have, once hardspl'ed u can flash any rom/radio u want to ur device.
just make sure radio works w/rom u flash. alot of chefs include radios w/their roms and ones that don'zt will tell u which radio works with rom

I've flashed my Orange TyTN II with no problems. So long as it is unlocked to all networks it should be OK. However if you do it then your warranty goes out the window.
Run HardSPL first
Once it is installed, double-check that it is installed by doing the folowing:
Power off and then press power on while keeping camera pressed, this will enter the so called bootloader mode and you see a tri-color screen (Red, Green, Blue). You should see "SPL-1.0 OliPof" on the second line in the top left corner. You can exit this mode by means of a "soft reset": press the reset button with the stylus.
If it does not say "SPL-1.0 OliPof" then HardSPL is NOT installed.
Once HardSPL is installed you can then run jockyw2001's unlocker to unlock the phone to all networks.
Then you can flash ROMS like there's no tomorrow!

nice walkthrough mate what's the differences between the roms just peoples personal customisations? is there a huge difference from the orange version?

the chefs cook whatever they want into the different roms..basically just personal stuff or needs...so read what posts and see which one fits u most...if not...try some out and see which one u like...

Narfy, go over to read this thread ... it is one man's story of getting his Orange unlocked and 'sorted'
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=386089
With an happy ending

Ok having problems trying to unlock my orange tytn2. Hard SPL is installed, Step 1 of the kaiser simunlocker has been done and verified. Following the instructions, I have reset the phone to boot screen and went to step 2, step 2 of course is a command and in xp this closes as soon as you open it. Have went to command prompt to run step 2 and it gives an error about unable to connect to usb: cannot connect to \\.WCEUSBSH001
Anyone any ideas am now stuck lol.

please ignore sorted now helps when you actually read forums lol

Upgrading and Unbranding Treo 750

With this method I have successfully unbranded, unlocked, and updated 2 Treo 750s that were originally AT&T/Cingular branded.
I spent hours running through multiple threads reading and searching to finally find a solution that worked flawlessly. These steps have been compiled from multiple threads:

Treo750_OS5_2_19199WWE_STD.rar from http://omnifusionhosting.net/treo750/
(I couldn't find the original posts for Treo750_OS5_2_19199WWE_STD.rar so I uploaded to my own site for now)
1. Download, extract, and run MAGIC_UNLOCKER on your phone.
2. Select both options in MAGIC_UNLOCKER and click unlock. This will unlock your phone.
3. Format your SD card to FAT32.
4. Extract Treo750_OS5_2_19199WWE_STD.rar and copy/paste CHEEIMG.nbh to the formatted SD card.
5. Transfer 1_CHEE_MountExtROM.cab and 2_Chee_Extrom_rename.cab to your Treo 750.
5. Run/Install 1_CHEE_MountExtROM.cab and then soft reset the phone.
7. Run/Install 2_Chee_Extrom_rename.cab and then soft reset the phone.
8. Click and run Start>Programs>Chee_Extrom_Unlocker. Run it about 3 or 4 time and you should some type of error messages. Just OK or X them and soft reset the phone again.
9. Open File Explorer and click the drop down arrow, in which you will now see ExtendROM. Open it and delete the 2 files in the partition folder.
10. Download, extract, and run CheetahUnlocker on your computer. For this part make sure you have an ActiveSync (XP) or WMDC (Vista) connection to your phone. Click Flash SPL and go through the steps for CheetahUnlocker to Flash SPL. Don't worry about any of the other items in the menu.
11. After going through the steps in CheetahUnlocker and the phone, the phone will enter into tri-color bootloader screen momentarily followed by Loading screen...
12. Next, you'll see a light blue screen with the heading CHEEIMG.nhb followed by a few other entries below it. At this point, it will tell you press the power button. Go ahead and press the End Call/Power button. This will begin the ROM flashing. The ROM flashing takes about 5 to 15 minutes.
13. When the flashing is completed, the bottom of the screen will say Update successful and the entries above with the OK seen at the end. Now reset the Treo 750 with the stylus and immediately (during the Palm Logo) perform a Hard Reset. This is accomplished by pressing and holding the End Call/Power button and simultaneously resetting the Treo 750.
14. You will now be prompted to Erase All Data. Press the Up key of the D-Pad to continue and erase the data. This will format the phone.
11. Upon completion, the Treo 750 will continue to boot-up and go through the initial start-up steps and wizard. Once completed, your phone will now be unlocked, unbranded, and updated to Windows Mobile 6.1.
I made this thread to help people unbrand, unlock, and update their Treo 750s without having to waste hours looking for solutions and how-to something. Basically, made it easier for the noobies and everyone else to find everything in one thread.

Hey man Thanks a lot for the noob hand book
I'll try this but i dont know if it's works for me. if you can let me know thanks..
my treo 750
treo750-2.25-att
1.54.27.00

It should work on all Treo 750s!
Just make sure you are not running WM5 on it and its already upgraded to WM6.
It looks like yours already is WM6 from the 2.25.
SO you should be good!

Thanks for the info
I had a Dash, which I upgraded to 6.1 and it was great. Now I have a Treo and have unlocked it but am not sure how to format the SD stick. I must admit to being spoiled using 6.1 and being able to recognize the SD as a separate USB drive. Is there a way to do that with the AT&T version of 6.0? I am not seeing how to format the disk from the phone. Any ideas?

There are many programs you can find to format your SD card to FAT32. Just look around on XDA and you'll find some posts about it.
I just stuck into my computer and did a quick format to FAT32.

Finally a tutorial for this process that I could follow. The other night, I flashed my treo 750 to WM6.1. It didn't go smoothly for me however, and I had to do it a number of times before it "took". After each of the first 2 failures, I had to reflash back to WM6, and start over. I did nothing different, it just finally took. During one of my failures, it even booted WM6.1, but locked up and failed during the initial regional setting phase. It would help if the following section of the instructions were clearer:
12. Next, you'll see a light blue screen with the heading CHEEIMG.nhb followed by a few other entries below it. (WHAT ENTRIES?)
13. When the flashing is completed, the bottom of the screen will say Update successful and the entries above with the OK seen at the end. Now reset the Treo 750 with the stylus and immediately (during the Palm Logo) perform a Hard Reset. This is accomplished by pressing and holding the End Call/Power button and simultaneously resetting the Treo 750. (WHY NOT HARD RESET DIRECTLY AFTER "Update successful"?)

I guess you could hard reset there but like i said in my post, i compiled the directions from various threads and that's what they said to do.
Were you able to unlock, unbrand, and upgrade the Treo eventually?

Thanks dubLeE so much for the detailed steps.. Here are my comments:
2. Select both options in MAGIC_UNLOCKER and click unlock. This will unlock your phone.
I didn’t do this step since I got my treo 750 originally unlocked.
3. Format your SD card to FAT32.
Succeeded.
4. Extract Treo750_OS5_2_19199WWE_STD.rar and copy/paste CHEEIMG.nbh to the formatted SD card.
Succeeded.
5. Transfer 1_CHEE_MountExtROM.cab and 2_Chee_Extrom_rename.cab to your Treo 750.
Succeeded.
5. Run/Install 1_CHEE_MountExtROM.cab and then soft reset the phone.
Succeeded.

8. Click and run Start>Programs>Chee_Extrom_Unlocker. Run it about 3 or 4 time and you should some type of error messages. Just OK or X them and soft reset the phone again.
OK, what I did is the following. I clicked on the program 3 to 4 times.. Each time I get an error but I ignore, finally I did one soft reset.
9. Open File Explorer and click the drop down arrow, in which you will now see ExtendROM. Open it and delete the 2 files in the partition folder.
The two files are found and deleted successfully.
10. Download, extract, and run CheetahUnlocker on your computer. For this part make sure you have an ActiveSync (XP) or WMDC (Vista) connection to your phone. Click Flash SPL and go through the steps for CheetahUnlocker to Flash SPL. Don't worry about any of the other items in the menu.

Hey hammod2k, try running magic_unlocker and see if it make any difference.
If not, then do a hard reset on the phone and go through ALL of the steps again. I read somewhere on the forum that some people were having problems and a hard reset first helped unlock and install WM 6.1.

Thanks for your fast reply. I will try it and i will let you know

How can I restore my Treo 750 back and unlock it?

Ok, After longs hours on the computer, I found a way to fix it and load back up the ROM.
I have also been able to do all your steps line by line with success. I have been able to upgrade to W6.1 but my treo 750 is NOT YET UNLOCKED!!!!
I have done it twice. line by line, number by number and step by step. All with ease but still not unlocked.
Can someone tell me how to unlock it now?
I have a Rogers Version

Glad you were able to fix it! Do you mind posting what you did hear in case others run into the same problem?
Why do you say it's unlocked? How did you come to that conclusion? If you were able to install WM 6.1 then technically that means your phone was unlocked (correct me if i'm wrong).

I had the black screen like the other member on this forum. I had to reinstall my previous ROM/OS (after 10 hours of searching on the net for it) successfuly and then followed the steps again you listed and was successful at upgrading with ease.
However my Treo is still not Unlocked. Not sure what I did wrong or what you recommend I do...

I tried the 2 steps of the Cheetah method and then the Magic Unlocker and still not working.
When I insert my SIM it says SIM LOCK
You have tried 30 times, please wait until timeout... What is that or what does that mean?
Im still on W6.1 and followed all your steps accordingly.

omg, pop my xda forum cherry baby, do you love me?
ok, so after years of lusting after a windows powered pda in one form or another, I finally copped a really really cheap Palm Treo 750 here in Australia. When I received this bad boy, it had WM5.something installed on it.
This step by step guide allowed me to fix any problems and successfully upload (on the first time!) wm6.1
do it guys, seriously. if you can install a new program on your machine,then you can hook this **** up.
fo' real.

Really sorry for late reply… anyway, I have tried and yes it worked but I had to do it manually.. First I have uploaded the file using RUUWrapper.exe successfully flashed my ROM to WM6.1
I don’t know what I was thinking of after that to try another ROM made with an uploader called “Kaiser” and I damaged my Treo “BLACK SCREEN”…  I got totally mad and I started to search all over the forums to find a solution since I tried to flash back to the original ROM, and tried like 2 or 3 ROMs but never succeeded to get my device boot up
I found a brilliant solution on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=366771 which helped me to get my Treo up again
Finally it was by falt… but I still don’t understand the differences between :
1) Kaiser
2) Herman or I think they call it Hermes
3) Vouge
4) Raphael
6) Victor
Are there differences between all of them… are they depend on ROM type? What about Treo compatibility with the above types.. because my experience with Kaiser type cooked by someone I cannot recall his name was total failure..
finally i can say it was great experiance
Thanks

Bricked phone installing rom, help?

Hello xda, so yet another person took the plunge into flashing a rom. Im not sure what I did that was wrong because the install went perfect, it made it to 100 percent and restarted my phone like it was all well and good, but it wasnt. It just sits there perpetually restarting. Believe me I have been looking unfortunately, I didn't seem to find anything that helped. From the threads I read it sounds like I can just go to the boot loader, plug in my phone, then place a stock rom from alltel on my internal storage and flash that, or maybe I was mistaken with what I read. Either way I can't get that to work I can get to the boot loader and hook it to my computer, and the computer will say something connected, but it doesn't show up as a removable storage device or anything. This is the rom I used http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=553844 this is also the tutorial that I used http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=36062
Please, please give me some help.

me too
Anyone have any ideas? I tried using the HardSPL from here:
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=35839
and I tried may different ROMs with the same problem... So i don't think it's the ROM.
Thanks in advance!

i was able to 'unbrick' my phone...
1. http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=35839, get the 0.57 version
2. load the bootloader
3. plug the phone to the computer
4. go to sprint.com and get the Rom from them and just use their exe
now it's back to WM6.1
So i guess the problem is that there's not WM6.5 ROMs for CDMA diamonds yet?

I don't know how offical it is, but I have loaded WM6.5 on my Sprint CDMA Diamond just fine.

Alright thank you that worked, I thought I was going to have a diamond shaped paper weight for a minute. I do believe that there are indeed 6.5 roms for the diamond, but I have no idea why this rom didn't work. Thanks for the help.

so I got mine to work with a wm6.5 rom.
this is what i did:
1. http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=35839, get the 0.57 version
2. then get this wm6.5 ROM: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=74084
this ROM is awesome!
Hope that works for you too.

You Bricked your Diamond
My Diamond bricked the other day and it wouldn't load or allow me to do a reset on it. I found a way to manually hard reset the device.
Hold the power button, the down volume button, and the enter button(the circled button) at the same time (continue to hold) then press the reset button. countinue holding the three buttons until a white screen comes up telling you to press volume up to reset device to original settings. press the volume up and it will reset. Now set up your device and immediately active sync and put a new Rom on the device

Yes thats pretty important to know when you are messing with roms, also make sure to note the boot loader screen which is reset, back, vol down, and power. That is how I fixed my phone. This tutorial is a nice tutorial to look over. http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=36062

www.everythingdiamond.info/ this site has cdma versions theyre pretty good

Yeah I actually got my latest rom from there, thanks for all the help everyone you were a god send

check everythingdiamond.info or ppcgeeks.com . Both of those sites have stickies dealing with this and all the roms you'll find there are for cdma phones.

Hi, Am New Here
I just wanna ask something about my O2 xda IIs, i had found out recently that my phone became soo slow.. even my SMS cant even appear.. soo i tried to let my brother fix it..
He tried to fix it with looking for softwares.. he was able to do soo what he call reformting my phone.. but in the end the Phone just stuck up in the Windows Logo.. please help me abou this problem..
My phone Specs
HTC O2 xda IIs
R 1.02.00
G 1337.32
D (i dont know what the version)
Phone Specs After my bro cooked it..
R 1.02.00
G 1337.32
D 5M6.5.1
Can you give me details about installing, upgrading
i think my bro can fix this.. can please give me the details? and softwares needed for my phone to able to operate again
THNX

welcome to the forum!
what your brother did was, flashing another rom. d-two's wm6.5.1 actually.
the fact that the device is stuck in the boot logo now can mean 2 different things, one is good and one is rather bad:
the good one is: he forgot to hard reset the device.
to perform a hard reset please go to -=this site=- and have a look how it's done. after flashing a device, a hard reset is necessary to clean up all the old crap, that is left from the rom before, like the registry and the contents of the storage drive.
the bad on would be: he screwed something up during the flashing
if the first method didn't get you anywhere and you are still stuck in that splash screen, you should look for "stuck in splash screen" or "stuck in bootloader" or "format blueangel mtty"
what that means is: the rom did not flash correctly and with a device with a broken rom, you don't want to start flashing again. so you need mtty to format the device before it should be flashed again.
my personal guess would be no. 1
with best regards
Chef_Tony

Dear Chef_Tony
Thanks for the quick reply.. your correct that the 1st one is only the problem that am not stuck at the bootloader but still... Even though am still stuck at the screen logo after try other roms... can you give me good ROMs that i could use?
I get the ROMs on this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=428030
i tried those ROMs but still no good i followed the instruction very well.. But still no progress can you still help me ??
By the way whats "mtty" can i use the second method that you give me can you tell me the instruction that i should follow
thnkx and more Power!!

i would, of course, recommed d-two's wm6.5.1 build 23071, which will be released tonight.
if the problem persists with other roms, you are stuck in splash screen and you need to take the mtty method. that is a little complicated, and i have never done it before, therefore, i cannot take responsibility, i just looked for what worked for other people (which is what i meant by search for those terms, it would have lead you to the solution, but here you have your own copy of the solution)
1. Download mtty v1.42 from http://files.pdamobiz.com/ROMs/XDA/mtty1.42.rar
2. Stop ActiveSync, by Task Manager (press Ctrl + Alt + Delete)
kill two processes rapimgr.exe and wcescomm.exe
3. put your device into Bootloader Mode by pressing Power + Record Button and Soft Reset.
4. Run mtty (from downloaded) Choose WCEUSBSH001
5. type "set 14 0" without the quotes to tell bootloader to boot the OS after reset.
6. type "task 28" to get your device formatted
7. type "task 0" to ask your device reboot
8. take the device out of the cradle, and manually reset it if it does not do that already.
good luck.

Newbie Tech Problem!!!

I've just recently gotten into different ROM's for my Sprint Touch Diamond. I am currently running Mighty ROM6. Now it flashes fine but after about a day of use I notice the phone starts acting up. Programs disappear, Opera browser stops working and I have to reflash. Is this a common flaw with the Mighty ROM6 or is it something I am doing wrong? I just don't understand how it works fine and after a day or two of use I have to reflash it. Any and all input would be great...

I'm not sure about Mighty ROM6, but issues can occur when you don't clear the device from the previously cooked rom.
2 Choices to clear device:
• flash a stock rom first before flashing
• use mtty (link found in my signature)
Regardless of choice, after flashing the selected cooked rom of choice, don't forget to hard reset your device.
Doing this takes out the variable of it being your devices fault and thus puts back the onus to the rom.
Good Luck!

I'm not sure about Mighty ROM6, but issues can occur when you don't clear the device from the previously cooked rom.
2 Choices to clear device:
• flash a stock rom first before flashing
• use mtty (link found in my signature)
Regardless of choice, after flashing the selected cooked rom of choice, don't forget to hard reset your device.

Well that leaves me with two questions....where can I find a stock rom and how exactly do you hard reset a touch diamond? I've tried the volume down + enter and then the reset button but it doesn't seem to work...any other tricks? What exaclty is MTTY? another rom?

Looking for you re: stock roms
as far as mtty is concern, it's a tool that clears your device. Not too newbie friendly though.
HARD RESET DEVICE:
Right after you soft reset reset (red button) simply press Vol_Down + Circle button, then when you see another simple gray menu choose Vol_Up to confirm format)

Look at the 2nd post, of edited my response there.
By the way, another trick is to flash a radio or a rom via Internal Memory Method found below:
COOKING ROMs & Radios from phone =-
1. open from your PC the rar or zip archive and extract only the BIG .nbh file
2. rename as DIAMIMG.NBH
3. copy the renamed file into the root dir of your "Storage Card" or "Internal Storage" (the one of 4Gb... NOT to the internal phone memory!)
4. soft reset your device and within 3 seconds push together the Vol_Down + Back button (the one on the right above the hangup button) and keep pressed until the boot loader appears (the one with the color stripes)
5. soon as you see the bootloader stop to press those poor buttons
6. a very simple gray menu will appear asking you what to do, simple press the power button to perform the ROM/Radio upgrade
7. while the upgrade runs be patient and don't press again the power button, reset the device or play with it until it finishes, when finished a message "UPDATE SUCCESS" will appear, now you can safely reset your device
8. who prefer can perform a hard reset after the fresh cook (soon after reset simply press Vol_Down + Circle button, then when you see another simple gray menu choose Vol_Up to confirm format), even if this has no-sense because internal memory is pre-formatted during flash, but... there is always a but... for some unknown "scientific" reason sometimes an hard-reset can save time & headache
p.s. still looking for the pesty stock rom thread....

Found the thread for stock roms...<<HERE YOU GO>>

Doesn't matter, it's just for the purpose of clearing the device however, just get one with WWE (english vers.)
