Hiya
Got my Athena 3 weeks now and it gives 2 problems only (for now)
1/. It is locked to Tmobile but worse--I dont have a tmobile contract, and want to avoid getting one.
2/. The ROM version loaded on it is an old one (see below).
Net result---cant use with my orange or O2 sims and missing some good stuff not in the older rom. Do we need a super Cid for Athena to unlock it?
I think whoever brings the unlock and new rom to us will be knighted!!
Arise Sir Athena. Bring the rom and unlock to us.
OPTI
The Dopod WWE rom is available in some places already I think what is left is the cid unlock. WRT SIM unlock, if you paid full price for the device, Teja has already shown the way. Search this Athena section, and not difficult to find.

What is the different between CID lock and SIM lock ?..
SIM unlock allows you to use any other sim card in your phone. CID unlock allows you to flash any ROM onto it

Thanks Victoradjei for unlocking a mystery! Us mortals did'nt realise the difference re sim unlock and rom cid unlock. Wisdom comes when you least expect it. Unfortunately I am not eligible for the free tmobile unlocking, just have to wait

Sorry, but this is already old news. This rom is recommended for installation by Softbank. The bootloader seems to be modified 1.09. SuperCID before installing this rom.

Did you SUPERCID the rom? This rom was discussed in the forum and it was recommended to unlock to SUPERCID the phone first.

Dont flash it with this rom. You will be stuck with SPL 1.09.
This rom is recommended by softbank for installation because of some changes made in their network after APRIL 1st 2007.
So right now people here are looking into this matter...i will most likely install
it in a matter of weeks.

Dear Julian
I would like to flash my x01ht back to 1.06 bootloader. (now with DoCo ROM)
Do you know where I can find it out?
If so, would you please tell me.
Thank you and Happy new year!
W.E.
Stupid question
Just a question about this ROM and superCID.
I have unlocked and superCIDed my device.
Does that mean the device stays superCIDed, and I can install this ROM, and if I don't like it, revert to another? (in my case the French Qtek one).
What advantages does this ROM hold over the DoCoMo one?
Thanks in advance.

Seems like the right one, with the right radio version. Anyway, why are you flashing it back to original? Selling your phone? Sending in to repair? *curious*

Some problems with it (Half bricked)
Not even sure Ill be able to fash it back but if I do I ll try to get it fixed...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=302629
I've tried many times flashing this rom but when I get to the bootloader screen which shows:
HERM200
IPL-1.03
HERM200
SPL-1.40.Olipro
The ROM program in PC stop for a long time and then shows the error msg:
Cannot connect to your PDA Phone, check your USB connection... Then when I soft reset the phone, the previous ROM still works.
But the USB connection is OK and I've flashed many other roms successfully.
Could anyone help me because I badly need to flash the original X01HT ROM.
P/S: My phone is CID, not Super CID. I use the SSPL to have the ability of flashing rom into it.
Extract the NBH from this rom and use CustomRUU, force SSPL if you want to overwrite the bootloader too, otherwise flash it directly with HardSPL.
Thank you for your advice. I have flashed many roms into my X01HT and now just want to make it original so that I can claim warranty at Softbank. Do you think it's OK?
By the way I don't know how to extract the NBH file from this ROM. The ROM is only a EXE file. Could you please tell me more detail.
Thank you
@LongmanVN: use winrar to extract the contents from the exe.
Thank you, it works now!
extract the NBH?
And then??? If I duoble click NBH my pc does not recognize it as a program.
I unzipped everything in a folder and now???
What is the next step?
Someone can help?
Where can i download this? Any help would highly be appreciated. Thanks.
anyone?pls?
I'm pretty sure that Orange hasn't released an update yet for the unit. You may want to CID unlock it and then try one of the other ROM's (for the i-mate/Qtek/ or Cing 3125).
If Orange does come out with an update it'll probably be on their site...
Good Luck.

Please help me with this! I already tried everything to unlock my F600 and still nothing works. I want a different rom because its Orange ROM refuses to work with T-mobile... HELP ME !!!
Hi @ll..
i have an XDA neo, and would like to upgrade to PDAVIET 4.0.0.6 touch.. but i think, i have to unlock the CID first??
At first i would save the actually rom first (is a G4 Model, WM5) with the "rd2sd all" command, but it would not work
Theres an error, who says that i don´t have the permission to get the rom..
so i think it´s CID Locked..
But i found this--> click here
would this eventually work to unlock CID??
thanxx 2 @ll
you dont need to cid unlock!
next ... free cid unlock work only with prophet g3 versions ... if you have g4 ... no way to unlock without payment!!!
please read wiki for ... what is G3 or G4 and how to flash wm6 without cid unlock!!
the roms have firmware uploader they work with cid locked device
You just need to use NO VENDOR ID locked ROM's. If it got NVID in it's name then you can safely use it. No problem at all.
OK.. thanxx..
bytheway.. what about the PDA Viet 4.0.0.6 touch??
can i use it without CID unlocked??
what happens, if i try to flash a rom, that need to be CID unlocked?
And how can i save my rom now?? because if something "**** happens", i can back it up..
but i don´t get the rom of XDA neo WM5 with
ipl 2.15.0001
spl 2.15.0001
gsm 02.19.21
os 2.15.4.29
or can i get it from here?? someone have this rom?
I also have a XDA Neo and after you flash 4.0000000.6 and so on you can still flash the official o2 ROM from de.o2.com without any problem. Just follow the PDAViet steps and you´ll be safe.
WOW COOL
thanxx...
i will try it at weekend ;-)
thanxx

If I cant find the original rom that my phone comes with (2.15.13.27 WWE), can I use this one from the wiki??

the above rom does not say NVID. Would installing this EXE package screw up my phone if it is NOT CID unlocked??
TIA
I have SIM unlocked 3125 but it has really old OS, so I would like to upgrade. Will flashing Cingular ROM make my phone SIM-locked again? I have a feeling it would but still hoping to avoid having to pay for unlocking already unlocked phone
PS. Sorry if it is an obvious question - I did use search.

Alright folks, Touch Diamond 2 SIM Unlocker (also for AT&T Pure) sorted:
1) contributing forum members & Elite Team donators... Request a free unlock with your IMEI & email. - if you have an account that has a) existed for a good few months and b) you actually contribute to the site (technical wizardy, or general helpfulness - CONSISTENT AND REGULAR POSTING), then just drop me a message and it's yours, if you don't meet both a) and b) then don't bother - having an account that you rarely posted from is NOT in the least bit interesting.
2) everyone else (new accounts/unregistered/sod all posts, this means you): [size=+2]Get SIM unlocked Here[/size]
for those who don't know:
Security Unlock lets you flash radios from other devices... technically speaking you can flash any radio, the Diamond, Raphael, Blackstone and Kovsky radios are NOT compatible, they will kill your device and cause biblical plagues - Rhodium will work fine though.
CID unlock is largely redundant, however, it's quite useful if you like to keep your device on a stock SPL as it means you can flash any official ROM regardless of which brand it's intended for without changing SPL.

Hi,
Does this mean that if I unlocked using the CID unlocker tool, I would be able to flash from a T-Mobile ROM to the stock HTC one?
I am having problems validating hardspl due to internet connection problems so this may be an alternate solution.
Sorry if this is a silly question.

Correct, the unlock will remain. The Radio this program flashes is a temporary one for unlocking purposes only, so you change radio at the end of it .

They're different. This is low level stuff we're hacking here... . Using the wrong SPL with either: 1. not work, or 2. brick the device (go find the guy who put a TP 1 CDMA SPL on his GSM TP2).
Dave
Oh.. Ok. Right answer!
btw. Flashing CDMA SPL in GSM thing surely will brick, what a stupid action!
