Tytn ii HERMES????? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

hi all.
Is the Tytn ii a hermes phone? Would like to know as i'm thinking of trying the HTC_Hermes_SIM_CID_Unlock_v3a program to unlock it. Its currently on Orange and I need to put T-mobile sim card in for a while.
Any advice appreciated.

Don't do that, the TyTN II is the next generation, I don't think it will work.

With all these Kaiser-named threads, it should be pretty obvious it is a Kaiser, not Hermes. Add to that the fact that the forums are separated by model - aka Hermes, Kaiser, etc etc...and here you are, posting in the Kaiser forum.
Can you say DUH!?
OK, that was a little mean, but you newbies need to read more.
Read the Wiki. It will give you all the info you need.

Are you saying that there is free unlock available then?
UPDATE: This method involves flashing a patched radio from a different device. Would not advise as this will probably either fail or brick device.
Did you actually test the device for sim unlock before you sent it back?

Need to lock MDA back...

I used the lokiwiz tool to unlock the phone and used it to CID unlock. Is there a way to lock it back? I'm being shipped a new T-Mobile Dash(aka HTC Excalibur) because my MDA has been broke out of the box. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!
Note: G3 version of phone and all original ROM and OS loads still on phone.
I believe there is an option to lock your device in the Loki tool. Should be option "L" if I'm not mistaken.

As long as you have tmobile software installed there is no need to re lock your phone. Just use the ROM from the tmobile website

Absolutely correct...TMo not smart enough to figure it out.
Oh, well, if you think I can leave it unlocked I won't worry about it. It still has the original T-Mo ROM from when I got it, and that's the whole reason I'm getting a free upgrade to the T-Mobile Dash from them (the HTC Excalibur). Heh. Oh well, eh?

Ive done it with no problem. I became friends with one of the Tmobile people and they told me all they do is check to see what software is on it. Checking to see if its unlocked takes "allegedly" too much time to do on a mass level. Especialy if you have the mini usb broken

Unlock blacklisted I-mate K-jam

Hi,
I am new on the forum and i have been reading about unlocking the I-mate K-jam (WIZA200). I upgraded my ROM version a few days ago, and then my phone got "blacklisted" by my service provider last night. I have been using the phone for two months now, and i bought it from a second hand shop.
How do i unlock it so that it's not blacklisted anymore? I love the phone and can't afford to loose it.
Any help? I tried using Lokiwiz03a and it gave me 16 zeros as the lock status, and SIMLOCK code were just symbols.
Thanks alll

You will not be able to un-blacklist it with any tools here. The tools here are for unlocking or upgrading the unit. Blacklisting takes place at your provider. You will need to talk to them. Most likely it is blacklisted because it was stolen from its original owner. Is the second hand shop you bought it from reputable? It may be as simple as getting a new sim card from your provider, if your sim was just disabled. But if they banned the IMEI then you are most likely out of luck as far as using it as a phone. You should still be able to use it as a PDA though.

Hi, thanks for the advice. I tried the iwizard but will not work.my phone is a G4, so i need a different tool. It reads the IMEI and allows me to put in a new one, but does not change the IMEI after that, phone still shows the same one. i am changing it to that of my old phone (Motorola Mpx200) which i have to use now since my wizard is messed. Any other ideas? I am using the wizard love ROM and IPL/SPL 2.16.0001. Help????

If it's a G4 then completely forget about it. No solution exists!
The best to do is report the guy who sold you the phone or to sell it abroad since the blacklists are not shared internationaly
cheers
A few more questions
Thanks Mestrini. What about the software that imei-check.co.uk are selling? Would that work seeing that there is no free software existing?

No it wouldn't work because they do not want to (understandable from the company's point) and they even have a warning on their web about their products not being fit to change IMEI on handsets.

I found an interesting article.. take a look at it: http://www.unlockme.co.uk/blacklist.html

Unlocking tilt for tmobile: Any success?

Im in the process of acquiring the tilt and having it unlocked from one of those ebay and store site services ranging from $20-40 if a phone call from AT&T wont work.
Will it work on Tmobile USA? Any real tilt tmobile owners?
I know i will have to reconfigure the GPRS but does anyone have the settings? Any Tmobile tilt owner with a working internet/sms/phone feature?
have you not looked at any threads here before posting one?
to make it simple, call AT&T to unlock it or buy a code and i'm using a tilt on t-mobile with their t-zones plan. no, i'm not gonna post the settings. you gotta do your own work sometimes, but search for tzones proxy settings and you'll find it here or howardforums.com
thanks
All i really needed the most was a real tilt on tmobile owner who is using it without any problems. Thanks for the confirmation. ill search for the settings.
It isn't too hard to unlock to T-mobile and reconfigure Data settings... I think if you google it, you'll even find the data settings you need for T-mo on "unlocked" windows mobile devices.
I used some random ebay unlocker and the response was pretty fast also.

Im using a tilt that I purchased on ebay and had it unlocked also through ebay. Im really happy with it. I only have the basic t-zones plan and I can check email (pop3) and surf the web (opera mini). Internet explorer doesnt work, but Opera is all I really need.

if ur still using the 29.99 data plan, ur getting ripped off, cuz they recently changed the price of their 29.99 data plan to 19.99. same thing, just $10 cheaper, definately call in and change it.
btw, it works for me on the 5.99 tzones plan

Hi, can you help me to unlocked my htc 8925 tilt? Thaaaaannnnnnkkk you so much!
tilt unlocked
bought the service from ebay (from a canadian seller for $14). Received the code within 24 hours.
Definitely able to. I chose unlock my phone through Tupisdin and a donation to this site (thanks for all the help here).
I tried calling international AT&T etc etc. I didn't want to use my friends number and account info. It was just a little too much of a hassle.
So in three days I've had the SIM Unlock, the CID Unlock, and flashed the HTC shipped ROM. I like the phone much better now. =)
BTW, if you flash the HTC ROM, you won't have to manually configure your data settings for T-Mobile USA. It knows them, already.
Now... just need to find a good way to remove the "AT&T" logo on the faceplate.
I need to CID unlock mine
is it a lot faster now?

you can get a new faceplate and use the "case tool" to swap faceplates.
i got the tool and faceplate on ebay for like 10 dollars total.

I have read somewhere that a cube of sugar can remove this logo from the face plate. I have not tried it myself but will be worth a shot.

why would you pay to unlock the phone? There's posts here that explain how to do it yourself, you just gotta use that search option and sift through the posts. DO YOUR RESEARCH PEOPLE!!! Coulda saved you a few bucks....
I got my Tilt, unlocked it myself, got it running to tmo now, working perfectly except that i keep gettin booted off BB Connect everytime I use a program that accesses data

yeah, i cant believe it took 2 pages to actually point out that there is an unlocker on this forum for FREE! FREE! FREE!
I am on the tmobile network with Tilt, it works perfectly, and im on the data network as well
free but tedious

It does take an awful lot of reading though, particularly if (like me) you miss a step and spend 2 hours using mtty to boot the phone trying to figure out what you did. But it is all there, it works, and makes a great phone super. On t-mobile, Duttys 6.1 at least auto-configured the network.
Free good, but it can be painful
I am going to try the sugar cube thing. I just noticed the ATT was painted on not etched.
Cool
sucess
i was able to cid unloack mines with the help of dutty's
HTC Kaiser Hard-SPL v1 - CID Unlock & Flash any ROM to your device (4 free) forum on here. now i just have to figure out how to get downloaded content from t mobile onto my tilt

Thick Newby wanting a G4 CID unlock answer

I must be thick as I have read more posts on this than I have had hot dinners and tried various utilities all to no avail although thankfully my Wizard still seems to work.
My O2 XDA-Mini s is about 2 years old and of course locked to O2 although the device come up as SIM Unlocked but CID Locked.
IPL - 2.21.0001
SPL - 2.21.0001
I am now on the Three network and would just like to get back to using the phone I love rather than the freebie I have now, so I am assuming I need to get CID Unlocked?
Having bothered to get to that stage I would want to scrap the O2 software and upgrade to a better ROM.
Sorry for being so stupid on this, I am hoping someone in the know can take the time to reply.
Thanks in advance
There's no need to post in every thread,you already posted in the G4 forum,wait for someone to replay.
Anyhow,check your other post,this has been answered ,to upgrade to wm6, you got to do it with SoftSPL or HardSPL as its a G4 device,but if you want to SIM unlock,use the lokiwiz03 tool to generate the SIM unlocking code.

Won't work on Three as it's not 3G. Should be unlocked though - most XDA mini s are.

Thanks, disappointed but that may be the answer, I will try a Vodaphone card in it tomorrow and that should answer the question.

Have a few questions about upgrading?

Hey everyone, I am a noob, I admit it, Well to this whole phone PDA thing. I have experience with flashing psp's etc, and now my way around electronics. But anyhow, I just bought a AT&T HTC 8925 Tilt TyTN II Kaiser off of Ebay. It suppose to have Windows Mobile 6.0 on it and unlocked. So I can use my tmobile sim card in it. Well what I was wondering is, can I upgrade it to 6.1 or maybe 6.5 and not hurt the fact that it is unlocked? Don't want to upgrade the firmware or whatever you call it, and it becomes locked on me! Also what is this radio thing I read about thru out the forums? Is it like what it sounds like? Radio = listen to FM /AM radio stations, or you laughing at me now and should update me on what it is, thanks

First thing you need to do is read the Kaiser wiki, all the answers to your questions are there without the need to start a new thread. Lecture over
Once unlocked always unlocked no matter if you upgrade the rom. The radio " they " talk about, is the firmware that operates the sound , camera and receiver in the phone. Different " radios " work better with different roms. The Kaiser has no radio per se,
Welcome to XDA, you will enjoy it . A great place to learn just remember to follow the posting rules
