Help with CID unlock on 8125

i'm a no0b @ this pda stuff. i got this phone about a week ago and i have successfully sim unlocked it so i can use it with tmobile. now i want to cid unlock it to put the qtek 9100 firmware (rom) on the phone. i have searched but i couldn't figure out how to unlock the cid portion. i have read in threads people asking if they can unlock the sim using version 0.3 of lockwiz and then unlock the cid using version 0.2. no one ever seems to answer that question. can someone please answer my question of how to unlock my phone in detail please. i'd greatly appreciate it.
thanks in advance.

Cid Locked or Not ?

Hello :
My frind wizard is ipl /spl 2.16 ( no more numbers)
Its a g3 ?
Do i need to cid unlock to go to wm6 ?
Wich version of wm6 do you all recomend »?
Thnks a Lot

If you read the wiki you will know that your friend have a G3 device. and you can flash wm6 rom wether you have CID unlock or lock but we recommend you unlock it..

Thnks ! But how can i see if it is unlocked or locked ?
What is the rom with wm6 that you recomend ?
Thnks

The easiest way to say whether your device is locked or unlocked is by sticking in a SIM-card from a provider that did not come with your device.
If it accepts it, and you are able to make a call your friend's device is unlocked, if it says something similar to unrecognized SIMcard or please insert a different SIM, the device is locked.

but unlocking the CID Unlocked device will not harm your device..
just to make sure..

Ok.
SIM LOCKED is The SAME as CID LOCKED ?
Thnks a lot

no!..
its different..

This just tests if your phone is SIM unlocked... doesn't prove that it's CID unlocked.
AFAIK, the only sure fire way to test if your phone is CID unlocked is to flash it with a different ROM that has ipl/spl. If you decide to do so though, I'd just recommend going through the g3 unlock procedure and know that it will be unlocked for sure.
Regarding which WM6 is recommended, just do a search or skim through the first few pages of threads... There have already been several polls regarding this. There is no "best" one... it all depends on what you are looking for. To start you off, some popular ones are: Most Beautiful Edition, PDAViet3, PDAViet4, Underground Edition and Orwell...

the best to do is not to check if you're a CID LOCK or UNLOCK..
just UNLOCK it even if its LOCK or UNLOCK..
atleast if you did.. you're so sure that now its unlock..

Thnks,
I will do.

Simple way to check CID is the type2 command in mtty
[I am currently @work, so I can't give the exact command]
If it returns SuperCID it means it's unlocked

Please help a noob - never upgraded a ROM before

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

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 ..

xda-developers free trinity cid-unlocker, is cid lockable again???

hi,
in a german forum i read, that only the cid unlocker which you had to pay for permanently gives you supercid status. now, i unlocked my trinity with the xda-developer version ''sspl'' for free, and want to restore the original condition, with locked cid, and original rom...
is this possible, and if it is, how?
kind regards, luki
ps: i used pofs method to unlock the trinity

Hi.
I'm searching for the same question and that's why I'm still on original WM5 ROM.
Mine is locked to Vodafone PT and I'm afraid to put another ROM like Dopod one, and if I got some problem, I don't know if it's possible to return the Trinity to the original state (CID) and send it back to waranty.
I keep an eye on this post and if you find some information, please put in here.
Good luck.

I don't think that you could CID locked your PPC !! But if it's just for going back to warranty...Often, they didn't see anything if you reinstall the original Rom ...

Are only branded trinitys cid locked ? what is cid lock ?

CID = Customer Identity
I don't know exactly why CIDs exist but i think it has something to do with licenses and stuff like this.
And no, original HTC devices have a CID lock too.
But @ shym I think you shuold watch out for the CID bypasser, I'm pretty sure it doesn't unlock your phone but you will be able to flash other ROMs anyway...

That's exactly what I'm looking for.
A way to flash another ROM, like Dopod or coocked one, and if I don't like or need to go back to WM5, just put the operator (Vodafone) original ROM and returnt it to warranty, if is the case (hope not)
Don't want to risk my Trinity to loose the warranty if the service found the phone was CID unlocked or else.
