Wizard/MDA/8125 Unlocking for Dummies

Well after getting my Wizard a few months ago I looked into unlocking it. The tutorials I found weren't the best because of how many threads they linked to you too which contained more reading to find a simple link. Well I've hosted all the apps you'll need to get your G3 Wizard unlocked with a step by step instructions.
1.Find out if you have a unlockable Wizard meaning G3, if you have a G4 this isn't the thread for you.
you'll see these numbers when you turn on your device
G3 DEVICE: IPL/SPL: 1.XX or 2.XX or 2.XX.00X (only two zeros)
G4 DEVICE: IPL/SPL: 2.XX.000X(three zeros)
2. Okay now your ready to load the Button Rom which you can download here, just connect your phone and open up this exe and fallow the steps the exe gives you.
3. Once your phone turns back on after loading that rom, you'll see a Beer glass as the first picture confirming you've properly got the Button Rom, Once your phones on DO NOT sync your phone just cancel the Active Sync set up.
4. Now download this Lokiwiz.rar, Unrar it and send the cab to your device install it and restart it. Again DO NOT sync your device with Active sync.
5. Now you'll have a Bat in the folder you unrared. Open that you'll see
U. Unlock
L. Lock
C. CID Unlock(super CID)
Q. Quit
6. if you want to unlock your phone to all carriers hit "u" for sim unlock let it restart and if you want to unlock your CID hit "c" let your phone restart and remember DO NOT SYNC with Active Sync between unlocks
7. Now your Wizards unlocked, Heres the T-Mobile Rom to upgrade your IPL/SPL, Download Here. Enjoy your unlocked HTC Wizard and go flash some new WM6 Roms.
Thanks to everyone that made/cooked the programs/roms used in unlocking the Wizard.

Now my phone didnt do a thing, no restarts or anything. my SPL is still 2.66 and the IPL is 1.01. I didnt connect to activesync the entire time. Then i ran the installer enablerapi and tried the steps over but after hitting U my phone and the program do nothing.
Anyways if anyone can explain why the software isnt working or if theres something else i need to downgrade to etc please pm me or post here thanks!

Enter U and hit enter. Remember u is for Sim unlocking Not Cid unlocking, Cid is C.

yeah thats what i hit : U for unlocking

did you install the Cab from the rar

yes the second time i ran the cab then did the unlocking, still no luck

no one has any idea why my phone isnt able to be unlocked?
im tempted to just pay the 100$ to unlock it but id rather do it myself just to say i did hahaha
- eddy

Thank you so much!!!
It works really well!!!

nice done with the tutorial but still everyone should still read the tutorials and give this warning: DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK this tread may have been started sometime but i did not see the warning for the noobs that just want to go straight to the unlocking.
Read!! and then read if you have second thoughts and read again just to make sure but DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK

Hi i did this and unlocked my tmobile mda (UK) no problems i can use my dads O2 sim card but i was looking at moving to the three network but when i put my mums three sim card in the phone it doesnt work. Does this mean it hasnt done it corretly or that i just cant use three on this phone.
Thanks for the help

sounds like you extracted the zip/rar in to a folder where a path to that folder has space in the name e.g. "Program files"
if this is the case try extracting to c:/foldername
that may help

How am I supposed to send the Lokiwiz cab file to my phone without using activesync???

why cant i cid unlo

Hello everyone. I have a Cingular 8125. I would like to know why when i try to cid unlock my phone, enablerapi does not do anything (restart my phone), and the lokiwiz.bat can not see my phone, even though everything else. Does it mean that my phone is already CID unlocked? Also, when i try to do it without the cid unlocker, my activesync connection shuts off after 30 seconds, and my phone needs to be reflashed. I baught the phone used off of ebay. It came with the original cingular ROM. I am trying to get WM6 on it.
Well TIA,
Whatismyphonecalled?

DOUBLE POST ?
You don't have to double post in every subforum and start a new thread to get your answer,wait for someone to help you out.This Forum is full of info relating to your problem,you just have to search and read,instead of posting and looking for shortcuts,don't be a lame.
Check your other thread .

i love to see newbie bricks !!
Before playing with CID unlocking procedure, do you know what are you doing?? Why do you want to unlock your CID?? Do you have G3 or G4 device?? Is the ROM safe for your device generation??
People... read. Otherwise you will brick your device.

I was involved in a small issue where lokiwiz wouldn't see my device, and it turned out to be a firewall. I was using my corporate laptop and they have some stupid crappy sygate firewall on there and I am unable to disable it or turn it off (even though I have "Administrative" rights). When I took it home to my home PC that was basically a sparkling clean install of Windows XP x64, everything worked as the directions said that it would.

I have the same problem. I bought a T-Mobile MDA from ebay and it has the 2.26 OS. I've been trying to install the new wm6 on the phone, but right before the update process starts, the active sync disconnects and the screen displays the colors. I've been tring this for months but been failing. I honestly need some help so if there is anyone out there who knows the solution to my problem, please help me.

Htc Origonal Rom

I Am With Orange Uk And I Would Like To Get Rid Off Thire Software And Just Have The Origonal Htc On My Phone Or A Rom Thats Working From Here. Can Any One Advice Me On Where To Locate And Download This Please. I Have Instaled The Hard-spl And It Has Worked Fine Cant Unlock The Sim But Thats No Biggy. Its The Tytn11

If you don't want to start flashing new ROMs to your phone, there is a possible solution:
Perform a hard reset. After the phone boots up for the first time, You will see a window pop up which will say that it will customize your device in three seconds. If you soft reset before the 3 seconds pass, you will keep the original Windows Mobile without any bloatware. Downside probably is you will be missing some nice HTC software.
So flashing an original HTC ROM would be the best solution. Download it here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Kaiser_ROMs
Make sure you have read the following:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Kaiser#ROMx20.Upgrading
NOTE: next time, check the wiki (And Stop Putting A Capital Letter In Every Word)
Hope this helps...

thanks

Has anyone used Diamond with a 3 UK sim card?

As per title.
If the answer is yes can you please describe me how to do it, because I have tried everything and I am becoming frustrated.
I have tried many different radio and windows roms. I should mention that I have used sim unlocker by Olipro.
Thank you

3 uk works great
yes i am using three uk on my diamond actually i have a o2 ignito i put the official 193 rom from htc uk and to do that make sure you hard spl and unlock CID etc.3 uk works great use opera and bookmark http://mobile.three.co.uk use this as your homepage all the three services work fine dont worry about three settings if you have the htc official rom it uses the network wizzard to configure your settings automaticly good luck.

Thank you for your reply.
I was using 3 UK with my Trinity before and everything was fine. Now, no matter which rom I install it just doesn't see my sim card. I cannot connect to the network. If I use a T-Mobile or Virgin sim card everything works fine. Should I run unlocker every time I install a new rom or radio version?

no you only need to run once try and run unlocker again and go to your phone settings on phone and make sure that the phone is set on utms or auto maybe you have it set to gsm try that and get back to me

Can you tell me which exact rom you used so I can install exactly the same one?
Thanks for your help!

_QMR_RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE_1.93.405.1_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship.exe

I tried installing this rom but still nothing. Is there a way to do a hard reset, just in case I have done something wrong?

http://www.hardreset.eu/htc_touch_diamond_hard_reset_soft_reset_en.html

i would recoment to try another 3g sim in your phone sounds like you got a bad sim there if that doesnt work you may have a problem with your radio.

Thanks a lot for your time jutley.
The thing is that I try the same sim in my HTC Trinity and it works absolutely fine. I tried hard resetting but no result either. I'll try now installing radio 1.25.03 from HTC to see what happens.

what unlocker did you use to unlock your htc and do you have hard spl on there

I bought the unlocker from here
http://diamond.htc-unlocks.com/
I believe I installed hard spl in the beggining. Is there a way to check it?

ok i think i know your problem the unlocker you have used has not unlocked the 3g band so i can send you the wright unlocker do you have a email add i can send it to you when you get it follow the steps 1 2 3 and your done read the instructions carfully and goodluck and finally i recomend you flash to the latest htc official rom i sent you the link .

No worries I found it.
DIAM100 MFG 64M
SPL-1.40.Olinex

yes the way to check your hard spl is hold down the side volume button down button whilst pressing the reset button by the stylus at the same time when it reboots whatch out for the info on the top left it will say hard spl with v number

I sent you a pm

here is the unlocker i used this one anyway and three uk worked fine its very easy just make sure you use the hard spl in the files its safe.

you should have the email now good luck let me know the outcome irm here to help.

It didn't work either...
The unlocker was very similar to the one I had bought.
I selected the two first boxes and commited changes. Should I select a CID as well?
Thanks a lot for your help man!

Even after unlocking the CID remains: ORANG001
Is this expected?

need help for htc device

Hi friends i am new here and i have got my htc diamond before a month and when i googled for apps i found this great site
Then i have dled some apps and tweaks and thanks again to xda mods and members for this
However i keep on seeing flashing of roms and i am new on flashing but dont worry cause i have everything read on this site with full details and i am not in a hurry to flash as i dont want to get into problem by flashing and i will do it slow and steady
But the problem is that my device is sim unlocked already but i dont know that the device is unlocked or not so can anybody suggest me an app which will give me full details of locked or unlocked or any method and one more imp thing that if my device is already unlocked and still i do a HARD SPL and then radio and then sim unlocker is it okay or not. i got this info:
STEP 1 ( HARD SPL )
- In short, this resets the CID. This makes your phone able to run firmware installs from other that your phone provider, which is normally locked.
- Just run "diamond-sspl.bat". When the screen on your phone goes black and the bat file is done, open the folder "HardSPL-1.24" and run "DiamondCustomRUU.exe"
STEP 2 (Radio)
- This flashes a new radio, witch is able to simunlock.
- Run: "DiamonCustomRUU.exe"
STEP 3 ( RUN UNLOCKER )
- Copy "DiamUnlock.exe" to your device.
- As and joke from the developer this is really hard to execute. You have about 1/10 of a second to press the center of your joystick (this ticks the "remove simlock" box) And almost instantanely press, with your stylus on the box at the bottom. I mean it says "COMMIT" but I cant honnestly remember.
i have Duttys Diamond ROM 5.2.20764.1.4.3 [3.02] which i want to flash as i have 1.93.7** version which is little laggy.
and is there any app which will completely backup my original rom and radio so that i can reflash it back if anything happens to my device
