G4 CID unlocked for sure ... - G4

Hello:
I just bought my i-mate K-JAM (G4). It is used (pre owned) and SIM unlocked so I can use any SIM carrier.
Is any way to find for sure if it is CID locked or not?
I’ve read several posts about it but I can’t be clear so any help or idea will be much appreciated.
Thx for all in advance.

If you read first post carefully you can see that fta64 wants to find out if the phone is CID unlocked; he doesn't mention unlocking it...
The pics you see is of a program that uses itsme utils and that allows what most tools already do. There's really nothing new about it; only a nice, easy user-interface to make it easier for noobs to read CID, unlock SIM, etc...
So unless istme or someone else finds a way to unprotect the DOC chips partitions you won't be innovating with my prog

You can use ShellTool to extract the OS part from an RUU file and flash it to the phone. IPL/SPL will remain the same but OS will be upgraded

New ROM for TyTn in South Africa

Hey all, Leaf Wireless, the new agents for HTC in South Africa seem to be on the ball. They have just posted the second ROM update in 3 weeks.
This one fixes a few issues including a voice message notification that was not on the older version.
Pof I can't get onto the ftp site at present. The username gets rejected. Have the last details you gave me changed?
Rom Version: 1.35.255.2
Rom date: 11/14/06
Radio version: 1.18.00.10
Protocol version: 32.55.7018.01H
Ext. rom version: 1.35.255.102
Enjoy!
Since this posting HTC Europe have announced a new ROM for HTC TyTN devices for release at the end of Jan 2007.(See my post elswhere). So before you go updating your ROM's with the ones presently available-hang on for a couple of weeks. I believe from my sources that this one is worth waiting for.
This news I got directly from HTC Europe and was confirmed by our local distributor. (who is pro-active!)
HTC claim it will resolve " all known issues"

Many thanks basilrsa, the upload finished and I moved the file to safe place:
ftp://xda:[email protected][1].35.255.2_1.35.255.102_1.08.00.10_SHIP.EXE
I will add the details on the wiki after a while....
Thank you!!
Looks like the South African HTC distributors lead the way in updates for the TyTN.
Maybe you can advise what's changed on this latest ROM update. - The voicemail notification is great - no more missed voicemails.
I had no problems in flashing the ROM and I am a novice!
Good luck.
Basil
Leaf Wireless South Africa rocks!
I am having a look at it now, but I'm at work and have not much time, at first try I saw that bootloader version has changed to 1.09 and Build date for this bootloader is "Nov 7 2006 22:59:17".
Will post details when I have more time to look into it.
Thanks Pof. I will be interested to find out what updates have been included. Nice to know that you work for a living!
Ha Ha
Great news!
Hopefully bootloader 1.09 won't mess up Super CID, from pofs great unlocker ... keep up the good work!!
excellent
hopefully its AKU3.2......
patience is running thin
I have just installed this twice with my super cid from Pof, and it keeped the super cid status.
sweet,
is the AKU still 2.3? or is it 3.X ?
Its still 2.3, so we still have to wait for 3.2
Any initial feedback on the performance of this ROM compared to others?
I'm thinking it might finally be time to bite the bullet (getting tired of waiting for an officially released TyTN ROM) and upgrade...
can anyone,who update this rom,tell me,if we can bootloader downgrade to 1.04?
Hi
If I install this rom in my
softbank X01HT this will turn the SID lock again ?
If yes.
I can still downgrade the bootloader to 1.04 with
'Extracted 1.04 bootloader-only upgrade' and then use the 'HERM_UNLOCK v2a.exe' again
Thanks
Adriano
It seems that once bootloader 1.09 is installed it is impossible to downgrade it even with the firmware with the same CID as a device and lower version numbers. The radio stack and the rest downgrades fine, but bootloader stays 1.09. Damn... Should have followed the unlock procedure while had 1.04.
this mean that if I install tjis rom and my phone don't work with Softbank Sim I can't reinstall other type of rom again?
correct?

Yes that would appear to be the wise thing to do! Unlock the phone and set permanent SuperCID with Pof's v2.0a unlocker, then try this rom. The phone should stay unlocked and superCID will stick.

You can reinstall other types of ROM with the CID matching yours, but even if you do your SPL won't be downgraded. I just confirmed it by reflashing two slightly different WWE ROMs - Bootloader stays SPL 1.09 no matter what you do!!!
UPDATE: Upgrading to bootloader 1.09 also means that Radio-only ROM upgrade is also out of the question.

Roms that work on G4 CID locked devices

Ok i am going to start a list of roms that dont have the IPL/SPL included that can be flashed to the G4 type devices
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Wizard_Love_2.26.10.2_WWE_Novii+CF2.rar
I am currently running this rom it is very fast and i like it i have added a few items to mine from molskis cabs to tweak it to my liking
MrClean_RUU_WIZARD_224a_AKU23_WWE is also runs on G4 locked wizards. but it's not makes me happier, cuz not one of AKU3.x does flash.
PLEASE include ipl/spl of your device in post!
PLEASE include ipl/spl of your device in post!
Your help is needed!
This will help the Guru's determine if there's a compatability issue with the higher ipl/spl devices. (it appears some G4 devices can be upgraded, while others might not be able to. )

Found out the reason that the 3rd Edition of Molski didn't work was due to the old "ROMUpdateUtility_Wizard_NoID.exe" used by Molski. After I changed it to the newromupdateutility_wizard_noid.exe, it flashed. However, I'm facing the same problem with other G4 users where only the Extended ROM and splash screen were updated, not the OS and radio.

Well, the Wizard Love ROM mentioned in the first post worked. It's using the new NoID_RUU. My phone has been upgraded to OS 2.26.10.2 AKU 2.3 now.
same for me. I have 2.21.001, CID Locked and Wizard love took my aku from 2.0 to 2.3, all works great.
@azapa .. 2.21.001 means u have a G3 device and the discussion is for G4 devices only !
following is my device info :
IPL /SPL 2.21.0001
GSM 01.07.10
OS 2.21.4.1
i have a o2 mini s and have not changed the rom even once on this device
so , from what a gather , the rom mentioned in the first page ( wizard_love) will work on my device ????
and r there any advantages , i mean in speed and performance ??
IPL/SPL 2.21.0001
Running Molski.Biz_226102_22610105_022511_G4_WWE-30MB, works fine. Allthough I needed to flash it twice to get the OS part updated.
Not sure if my device is CID-locked or not, how can I check to make sure?
i think all are locked ... not sure myself if there is any way to check ??
Wizard-Love works in my O2 with CID locked!
@dodadent .. is it any better than yr old rom ? what was yr old rom version ? and whats yr IPL and SPL ??
i was just checking out the rom update utility and its not in english !!!! cant understand a word .... somebody help !!

IPL/SPL upgrade?

I am currently running the Cingular 2.25.0001 ipl/spl .. is there a better one out there that would be safe to upgrade to on my 8125 G4?
lol.. No one has any suggestions?! lol .. I see a couple people with 2.26 and 3.08 .. just wondering how those would work with my G4
You've got a WHOLE LOT of reading to do if you're thinking about changing your IPL/SPL on a G4 Wizard.
Good Luck!!
that's what I figured.. I wasnt sure if it was safe to do... or easier to do with my CID unlocked..
This thread would be the perfect place to start.
HA! Thanks newbie.. I guess I will be leaving my IPL/SPL alone .. .. Maybe I will wait for cingular to make an update.. lol.
I have :

OS can you reflash later.
Question I have is.. What exactly does the IPL/SPL do? lol ..
apparently doesnt let you make calls. every time i try to dial a number, it says your international call cannot be completed as dialed... its useless, i just did it on my g3.

IPL and SPL are your bootloaders.
They initialize and load your OS and radio. different versions have different commands available to them and in some cases a higher number means a better version. In others the higher number means there are security "fixes" that will make it harder for you to flash your phone.
For a Wizard I have seen no reason to update higher than the T-Mobile 2.26. But then again you should only do this if you have a G3. Flashing G3 bootloaders into a G4 device will irrevocably brick it.
I believe (don't quote me on this though) that only official carrier roms (newer than the G4 device) contain both G3 and G4 bootloaders and as such are safe to flash to a G4 device. I would confirm this with your carrier before doing so though.

I have a G4 CID locked phone and IPL/SPL thats older than 2.26 and I see no reason to update them still, considering that I can upgrade everything else (OS, radio, ext rom, splash) without touching IPL/SPL. Of course, I am a little more cautious having bricked (yes, real "replacement required" type brick) my phone once.

Is it always necessary to cid unlock a device (G4) for WM6 flashing?
Because I read that there is currently no way doing this for free... or?

Read the wiki at first. You don´t have to unlock for flashing, but to downgrade your prophet to a special version. Then you can flash some of the versions you prefer.

CID lock has nothing to do with the OS. you can upgrade/downgrade your OS with CID lock phone. on the other hand you can not dowgrade your IPL/SPL if your phone is CID lock. ( don't change IPL/SPL if you don't know what they are)
Yes, before I can upgrade to WM6 it should be AKU2.2 ... Which software version is it when I look at device information?
so, if i have a g4 model with wm5, can i upgrade with the PDAViet 4.0.0.0.6 Touch? i've been reading wiki, but... there are always some kind of a fear to do the things for the first time...
thank's wiki's masters!

Can't upgrade to WM6 !!!?????

Hello,
I've tried to install the latest TNT WM6 Rom without sucess. I managed to install the LOVE ROM after but I really would like to install WM6.
I have a QTEK 9100 CID and SIM unlocked and when I try to install the TNT ROM I get stuck at 99% of procedure and then get ERROR 302. Already tried with TNT ROM 19199 V1 and V2 and in 2 computers and get the same error. I changed the update utility too.
Does anyone have any ideas?

If you have a G3 device,it might not be CID unlocked,download WST 4.2.2 tool and run the 'CID Action' button to verify the CID lock/unlocked status,but if its a G4,it cannot be CID unlocked,however,it can be upgraded to wm6 through methods called 'SoftSPL' and 'HardSPL',you can read about them in this G4 forum as 'Stickies'.
Btw,what is the IPL/SPL of your phone ?
WM6.1
Hello,
My QTEK is a G4 and I tought CID unlocked meant that the phone was free for all networks since I bought mine free of operator.
My IPL/SPL is 2.18.0001

Its surely is a G4 device with ipl/spl 2.18.0001. All network unlock means its only SIM unlocked,but CID unlock means you can upgrade to any wm6 Rom.SIM unlock and CID unlock are both different things,a G4 phone cannot be CID unlocked,however it can be upgrade with either 'SoftSPL' or 'HardSPL' .

Hello,
THank you for your help. It solved the issue by using the SoftSPL. I already installed the SNN V3 Rom and it is working fine but I would like to use the HTC Cube, where can I get a compatible one?
