Are there no sim-unlock software for Tornado?
Tornado (Qtek 8310 / i-Mate SP5) is not SIM locked in the first place so no need to unlock it.
The Orange version may be, but it isn't released yet.
You can unlock the software so you can install non-signed applications.

well i CID unlocked using aWizard, and i SIM unlocked using Lokiwiz (all this is on these forums) and then i decided to flash my spv m600 to the latest arabic i-mate jamin rom.
it all went well and works fine, only problem is the arabizer suite, it installs but doesnt run, error message displayed is: cannot run on this device.
its kinda strange coz iv always used imaginet arabizer suite on any device, and not one that was originally an i-mate.
any help on this is much appreciated.
p.s. i thought id post this in upgrading as it is related
Hi guys before I start, I have read numerous posts and tried to do as much reading before writing this, but my findings are not conclusive.
I have just got a new M600, so it’s locked to Orange and has no rom alterations done.
I want to upgrade my rom as I don’t like the Orange stuff in there anyway and I was very happy with a Qtek rom on my M500.
1 Do I need to sim unlock the phone, to rom upgrade?
2 Can I just upgrade using the files as in post http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=49298
3 There’s talk of the CID being unlocked, does this need to be done, before upgrade.
4 There is no sure way of backing up existing rom?.
5 Once upgraded, is the phone still sim locked.
Basically I don’t want a brick sitting on my desktop.
Regards
Up!
I too want to update my Orange France SPV M600 freshly bought this week but i don't know if i need to CID unlock the phone before upgrading with a Qtek rom.
And another n00b question: is there a list somewhere with the new features of the roms ?
Thanks in advance ^^
who can hep me
I too want to update my Orange France SPV M600 but my Orange France SPV M600 is now in 3 line color and numberis: IPL 2.10.0001 and SPL 2.G3
Reading the XDA-Wiki, you can see that a CID unlock is required for doing anything with ROMS. As a result, if you have a G3 phone, which you need to check, then follow the instructions here
If you have a G4 prohpet, then unfortunatley you cannot CID unlock the phone, thus no ROMS.
SIM unlock isnt required for ROM upgrades, but the CID criteria must be met.
Once again, if you had read the wiki, you would know that ROM backup is available here
Hope this helps,
i'm trying to upgrade a second hand bought qtek s100 (presumably a magician). i hoped it would be a piece of cake, being a qtek device (thus sim and cid lock free). the simlock part is correct, any sim will work. but the cid lock free part does not hold. i tried several rom upgrades from the shipped rom section on the xda server:
nl113 rom (i think this is the tmobile rom)
the uk wwe 112 rom
the wwe 112 rom
the wwe 113 rom
and so on.
i also tried the xda unlock tool, hoping that i made a mistake and that something was still locked. after running it, it told me that unlocking worked (but it was already simunlocked to begin with). but still afterwards, running any of the above roms still didn't work. still country error.
with all the roms i get an country 112 error. even with the original qtek roms? i tried both the uk and wwe rom (not quite sure if this is a native dutch s100 or an expansys (uk) s100). did not matter, both didn't work. never had so much problems with my mda vario.
current rom is radio version 1.05.00
protocol version 1337.39
rom version 1.06.00wwe
extromversion 1.06.154wwe
maybe someone can shed some light why my qtek s100 does not take any of the shipped qtek wwe roms?
many thanks for reading my thread (and hoping for your suggestions)
solved it. just needed to run the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe. then it stated the current rom and so on, after which it gave an country error while putting it into bootloader menu. then i ran MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe again while the qtek was still in bootloader menu, now the summary sheet stated blank at the rom version and so on. now it was able to upgrade correctly. for those like me who have the same problem, just run MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe twice and immediately after the first attempt!
i have C600, now i need unlock it, but SPV-Services not working, anyone know other way to unlock C600.
Thax alot
SPV 600 can be unlocked for free - no need to pay anyone.
Hey guys, Ive just used the goldcard method to remove all Bloatware from my HD2 by installing the WWE rom. I have already Network unlocked Via Subsidy Key on the Original rom. My question is.
As i have flashed the new rom, Is the Subsidy unlock still active? I have no means to test as i only have a T-Mobile Sim card atm. My o2 card is on its way
