User and PW on http://www.clubimate.com

Hi,
I have failed to register on http://www.clubimate.com. I would like to do a ROM update on my new tmobile XDA compact, but when trying to register the IMEI number is not correct ??!!!!! Could please somebody give its user and PW????? It is quite urgent, so I appreciate any help!

did you buy your imate 2nd hand? if you did and the previous owner registered it on clubimate.com then what you need to do is pay $40 to get membership to the site. or you can go to the ftp of this site and get the roms from there.

Club i-mate is for people who own i-mate devices. From your post, you own either a T-mobile MDA or an O2 XDA, regardless, neither of these is an i-mate, so you're out of luck accessing the i-mate site.
However, whatever ROMs you find on that site are also available on the xda-developers ftp site.

Guide on how to unlock an Orange TyTN II (T-mobile Vario III, HTC P4550, Tilt)

Guide on how to unlock an Orange TYTN II by UKBATMAN (from post #55)
Want another guide? See post #217
Please note this phone is also known as: HTC Kaiser (T-mobile Vario III, HTC P4550, HTC TyTN II, AT&T Tilt)
On your phone do the following START / SETTINGS / CONECTIONS / USB TO PC. Remove the tick “Enable advanced network functionality”
Using Activesync 4.5 to copy all your contacts / phone data to outlook Activesync 4.5 can be downloaded here: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/activesync/activesync45.mspx
Removing the “SIM LOCK”, the mobile network provider of your phone could have added a “SIM LOCK”.
An easy way to check this is by inserting another network provider’s Sim into your phone, if your phone works please jump to the next step.
If not I was able to unlock my phone using the following link:http://www.imei-check.co.uk/kaiser-unlock.php
Additionally I believe user tupisdin can also provide this service for a nominal fee.
Or you could use OliPro's SIM/CID Unlocker or Jockyw2001's SIM Unlocker
Removing the “CID LOCK”, the mobile network provider of your phone would have added a “CID LOCK”.
POF has the answer for this, follow this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334679
New ROM, once the “CID LOCK” has been removed you will need a new ROM, follow this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=331900
Locate and download RUU_Kaiser_HTC_WWE_1.56.405.5_radio_sign_22.45.88.07_1.27.12.11_Ship.exe.
Connect your TYTN II to your pc wait for the green ActievSync symbol and run the RUU_Kaiser_HTC_WWE_1.56.405.5_radio_sign_22.45.88.07_1.27.12.11_Ship.exe file.
The only thing I do not like is you get a splash screen saying “smart Mobility” Splash ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/Kaiser/Splash/
Additional information and Rom’s can be found here
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Kaiser
I hope this helps, If anyone can locate new / updated roms please post the links. PS. I'm a newbie at flashing but I hope I have made it as plain and simple as possible for my fellow newbies.
Many thanks for xda-developers as I now have an Orange TYTN II unlocked and rid of Orange software.
Enjoy UKBATMAN.

Hi,
I've got myself an orange branded kaiser last week and managed to CID-unlock (thanks pof) and and SIM-unlock (thanks tupisdin) the device. but I've read few threads mentioning not to flash any rom to it no matter what. Just wanted to know if anyone has managed to flash a cooked rom sucessfully to an orange branded kaiser. Any gotchas, also is there an Orange rom as backup just in case for warranty.
Regards
lkw

Please help!
I hard-spl'd and ran the HTC RUU.. and after that the phone nicely restarted and asked me for an unlocking Simlock code...
WHAT? which sim card lock? I didnt change the sim...its an Orange UK one..
I tried looking for answers..but the topic seems to be all over the place!
is there a short answer?
Thanks

sim unlock
yes the short answer is you have your phone locked out of all networks
you should have read the forum before
but as you found the forum if you contact tupisdin and make a donation to xda he will unlock it for you
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=314547
you can get it from orange for £20.00 but it will take 3 weeks
sorry
steven

Thanks alot for the informaiton,
I got in contact with that member and he told me what donation I need to make... That its just after I got off the phone from Orange CS. I managed to get it off them for free (They tried charging me, but as im a silly heavy user +£100 a month for the past three years, they decided to let it off for free)
However, as you say, it might take 5-15 working days... therefore, I will have a rather fancy TomTom Navigator without a phone!!!.
I am trying to understand what went wrong.. how come it got locked up? and is there a way to undo this?

Taking a wild stab in the dark I would guess that orange have managed to do more than just change the os keeping the simlock in place however flashing to another rom may have scuppered that setup and as it has not found the orange rom it sees it as incompatible and therefore pops up the sim unlock feature of the phone to release the phone from orange.
bit of a sneaky way of doing things but highly possible if they have all the developer kit from HTC as to what they can do with the phone. It seems that the sim was linked to the rom somehow.

Hi
I plan on doing the same think with my Orange UK TyTn II tomorrow when I get it.
I am only flashing the OS...am I correct in assuming you flashed everything including the radio stack?
Thanks

TYTN II Orange UK IMEI Change after Flashing with HTC ROM
I guess I did...
although I sepnet like 4 hour reading about what needs to be done... until when the sh$£ hit the fan..only then i started see all the bells and whistels mentioneing CAUSION... WARNING... DO NOT FLASH ORANGE UK!!!
Oh Welll
Now what is puzzelling me even more the following:
On the TYTN II box, there is a sticker with the IMEI number.. which is exactly the same as the one on the tag under the battery...
NOW.. after having flashed the thing...I checked IMEI thru Hardware details in settings... and surpise surprise: there are two more digits at the end of that same IMEI! so its the same number but with a 01 at the end...
What happend here? I thought a simple flash will not touch your imei...
Yet another thing to screw things up for OS Changers!

All Resolved.. IMEI code entered.. Phone unlocked.. Everyone lives happily Ever After!

A couple of weeks ago I was all ready for getting my new Kaiser from a website offering unbranded HTCs on Vodafone. The price of these was not cheap at £210 for the phone and £40 a month line rental but I was prepared to pay that just so I could get an unbranded, un-tainted version of the Kaiser, that is until I rang up Orange to cancel my contract and obtain the PAC code that lets you keep your existing number. During this call they offered me a free Kaiser plus a better contract if I stayed with them. I had a feeling that Orange might have screwed around with the software so I said that I would go into the Orange shop and have a look at one before I took them up on this offer. When I managed to get to check out the Orange Kaiser I saw that as expected Orange had completely ruined a perfectly good phone, AGAIN!
My question is how easy is it to debrand the Orange Kaisers. I've seen all the messages saying there's a big risk of sim locking etc etc. But I want to know from people that have unlocked their phones successfully/unsuccessfully how difficult it is. I've de-branded phones in the past so I have a decent understanding.
I also want to know how much of the Orangeness can be removed. Is it removed totally or are there still traces of the rubbish software left? Also how does the de-branding affect the phones features? Do you lose any of the features by de-branding?
Finally what are peoples opinions on whether to go for the free branded Kaiser and unlocking it or spending £210 for the unbranded?
Your replies will be much appreciated
Ben

everything of the orange **** can be removed. If you flash your ROM with one of the cooked here -or even the offical HTC ones- it's gone. Done it myself, now running Dutty's ROM. Go for the cheapest and get your cooked ROM's on this forum

You can install the HTC shipped ROM on an orange phone... I did this because I use windows live messenger and Orange have removed it from their ROM.
BUT...
You will have to pay to SIM unlock your phone (£20 from EMEI-CHECK or £25 from this site - don't even get me started on that)
That's ok if you build it into your calculations of the cost of the phone. Just remember, "de-branding" your phone with the HTC ROM will cost ya.
I'd highly recommend it... and downloading the TomTom taster too (another thing orange have removed - doh!)

why would he have to pay? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334679

Because that only CID unlocks the phone which is different to the sim card lock which I believe engages itself when flashing a rom onto a orange kaiser the first time around.

correction;
FEATURES
SuperCID / Security Level=0
Does not check NBH signatures
Based on 1.50 MFG bootloader, rtask enabled
Accept any password
Model ID check only 4 chars
SPL overwrite DISABLED (to bypass, use SSPL-KAIS.exe)
SUPER-CID is mean can unlock carrier too. example.. use at&t tilt on t-mobile and so on

Sorry I not going to bite on this one I'm just ask you to think long and hard about what you have just said and if you have any free time read up on the differences of CID lock and SIM lock.

Im gonna have to agree with Ratcom...
I tried it myself..i got out of business for three days (that being my phone simlocked)
The CID unlock thread mate-y is talking about doesnt seem to leave Prange UK TYTN II any happy!...
I am now Running Duttys latest (with two russian imperfections lol) and its beautiful...If orange are offering it to you for fre.. id go for that and by loading duttys ROM.. you'd be well pleased!

If benl2k is happy to stick with Orange and use an Orange SIM , then (s)he won't need to SIM unlock it (although I'm sure that free SIM unlocking will come along in time if you keep checking out XDA-Devs).
The question was about getting rid of the Orange rubbish/crippling, and that can be done easily using the info on this forum...

bigchemist, what are the 2 imperfections you mentioned? Also how exactly did you get rid of the sim-lock. Am I correct in understanding that when you flash the Orange ROM it locks the phone so that not even your Orange sim will work with the device?

HARDSPL should be installed before flashing any ROM on your device.
Orange UK seemed to have made substantial changes to the Radio ROM of this device.
Any Orange UK Kaiser user should only flash the OS part of the ROM. DO NOT flash any Radio ROM until this has looked into further. Flashing any Radio ROM on an Orange UK device will result in the device being completely SIM Locked (even to Orange), unless you SIM unlock your device first. You can SIM unlock if you have already flashed an alternate radio but atm there are no free ways to do this. Have not tried flashing Splash screens but one would assume that this would be OK.
HARDSPL does not SIM unlock your device. It CID unlocks your device so you can flash alternate vendor ROMs.

tell me.......
so i take it once you unlock the sim lock - cost 20 quid, you can then do anything you want, like cid removal without any fear of locking the phone out again??? once its unlocked the first time, you never have to worry about a second lock popping out the blue????

Unlocking the HTC TNY II

Sorry for such a basic question but I have just purchased a Kaiser and its currently locked to the Orange network in the UK.
How do I unlock the phone to work on any UK network?
Thanks Eddy

No 'Free' solution quite yet, but I understand it is close, or you could try imei-check.co.uk

or ebay.
Much cheaper on ebay

Do you have KPN branded Vox/S710 BIOS or 'just' a SIM lock ?
And: how old is the contract, according to dutch law they need to give you the unlock code after 12 months.
And: I don't know if its okay for the rules of this forum to talk openly regarding this matter

Sim Unlock

Hi,
Is there a SIM unlock available for the x7510 (T-Mobile Ameo 16gb) yet?
The only mentions that i can find one were posted back in october. I'm assuming the unlock for the x7500 and x7501 don't work (I tried them, and they didn't seem too)

I suggest a few points:
1) Stay FAR away from any such util designed for x7500 or x7501
2) Read the sticky at the top of this forum, ALL OF IT

Shared woes!
Hi rschwall,
I have been trying this for the last 2 nights with no success. As we have both discovered the Ameo16GBUnlocker file currently available from http://xacsx.de does not have a X7510 (ATHE400) compatible SPL bundled with it and the radio flash doesn't work with the 365 HSPL. By pure coincidence I have followed the same path as you at almost exactly the same time, you weren't trying to de-brand the phone to sell it before XMAS were you? (that was my plan) I am also on a T-Mobile UK Ameo 16GB. I have since reverted the machine to a stock ROM (NEW: WWE (english) 3.29.707 ) linked from Post 2 in this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=441684), and then reverted to the stock SPL in post 1. I tried again with the unlocker and still had no joy, so last night I ordered an unlock code from an external supplier. I have received a code and when I get the opportunity to try it this evening I will let you know if it was successful. I'd rather pay a small amount than waste too much of my time. I like a bit of a technical challenge but I do have a life!
I look forward to being able to give you a solution later, even if it involves paying someone else a token amount. I did not buy it from the suppliers you list. I am wary of buying codes online since I paid for a Nokia N73 unlock code many moons ago only to receive no code but a bland statement that they couldn't provide one but I might like to try a few other things instead, after they had secreted my money to some place well beyond my reach. This time I have used a supplier who at least appear to have a track record and a payment method that I can recall if necessary.

I also got an unlock code from gadget_international (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170419501439&_rdc=1).
I put in my T-Mobile USA SIM and restarted the Ameo 16GB. When I got to the window labeled SIM Lock, it displayed, "You have tried 23 times, please wait until timeout..."
I gave up waiting 65 hours later. I've got no cell phone while this thing has my SIM card tied up.
I have called T-Mobile USA support. Although their agent gave it a serious try, he figured only the guy I bought the phone from or T-Mobile UK could help.
I have called T-Mobile UK support. Although they were polite, they said that they can't help me unless I have a T-Mobile UK phone number. They were amazed to hear the number 23. They believed the SIM card would be permanently locked at 10 tries. (The SIM card still works fine in my HTC Advantage x7501).
I read the Athena 1.5 Service Manual. The Assembly / Disassembly instructions include several frightening precautions, including recommending that 3 parts be replaced and not reused, but it only calls out 1 of them in enough detail (the power button). I think I'll turn back now.
I'm stuck. Any ideas?
