Unlocked SPV C600 - ok to upgrade? - HTC Tornado

I have an Orange SPV C600 that I had unlocked and currently run on O2. Everything works fine except MMS but I'm not too bothered about that.
What I need to know is if I do a ROM upgrade from Orange will it relock my phone and if so are there any other options? I know there have been quite a few fixes since I've had my phone so it would be nice to upgrade it.

watch out for orange application lock. regEdit certificate wouldn't work with orange new updates. but you can go back to O2 if it's not CID lock
PS better not to get the updates.try to find the old rom.

Thanks for the reply. I'm probably a bit out of my depth here so maybe I'm asking a bit too much of you as it leaves me unsure as to what I should do. These are about the best questions I can ask:
1. Can I do an application unlock myself or does the phone have to go back to Orange to do it?
2. I assume I can also install the HTC (non-Orange) update but presumably this is risky as I don't have the Orange ROM to rollback to if it goes wrong. Is there a safer way to do this?
If you can give me any more help I would be very grateful.

Anyone managed to upgrade Orange M600 to Imate Rom?

Has anyone managed to upgrade a Orange M600 to the Imate Rom using the ROMUpdateUtility.exe on this forum?
yes, i used imei check to unlock and and set the cid, then used the latest imate rom (2.13.9.23 WWE)
It is much faster in general use and i am sure the screen redraw in tomtom 5 is smoother. other added bonus is no more orange branding!
You can use a modified RUU utility that is posted here bypass the need to change the cid, but you will still be simlocked
Thanks, hopefully my M600 is in the post at the moment
Would like help
I also have a UK orange M600 locked to Orange and would like to put the I-Mate rom onto it.
What files to I need to get.
What is cid
Do I need to have my phone unlocked 1st.
Could someone please give me a step by step how to instruction on how the process is done.
Is it totally successful in all ways.ie does everything work.
Can I make a backup of the original rom.
Many thanks in advance

Got my M600 today and flashed it straight to the Imate Rom. Always prefered the Imate software.
No you dont need to unlock the phone before flashing. just search the forum for the guide and file needed to flash any Rom. Very easy.
Does it work
Ok
Does it all work ok ie
Bluetooth
WiFi

What was the name of the file or files u used and how did you do it

I'm in the same boat. I have the Orange SPV C600 and need to application unlock as I can't get my Audible Player to work....
Application unlock from Orange
Update: I emailed Orange and they sent me the "Security Level" tool to application unlock my phone. I ran it and put "security disabled" and it confirmed a success.
Unfortunately, it seems not to have made any change. I still cannot installe regedit and still get error msgs when trying to run spv services.
Anyone else come across this problem? I checked the IMEI and it is correct...
Thanks
post the file on the forum .............to see if i can do anything.thanks.

Orange SPV C600 Application Unlock

Hi Peeps,
I have been researching many websites without any luck. I am new to Windows Mobile devices and looking for some assistance in Application Unlocking the C600/Tornado.
I have seen some posts about flashing it with the Imate ROM. The phone itself is sim unlocked however I am trying to install some third party applications and it is stating I don't have enough permissions.
I have tried various Registry editors but they won't install.
Can anyone help?
Edit:
I have tried using the HTC Unlocker. It states unable to open regedit.exe. I have also tried SDA_Applicationunlock.exe I get the message "Phone is not unlockable".
This is driving me crazy, can anyone help.
Cheers

unlocking spv c600
Hey guys
I have followed the above steps to unlock my phone, and I'm still gettting an "Invalid Sim card" error.
I have tried just about every unlocking app or method there is, and still no luck. I have a new SPV C600 which I got on an Orange contract about a year ago. And it's security locked so I can't edit the registry, and I can't install any certificates either.
And though I tried the 1, 2, 3 step method above, and tho it told me it was successfull on all 3 steps, my O2 sim card still doesn't work.
Waahhaaaa....
help please
i have bought TMobile SDA. Can we unlock with this ? If not can anyone tell me how can i unlock it myself..help needed urgently..thanks in advance

GUYz MY PROBLEM IS HUGE. I AM STUCKED ON A THREE COLOUR SCREEN ON MY SPV C600 CEEL WHILE I WAS TRYING TO UPGRADE IT. THE ONLY ROM THAT SEEMS TO WORK , ONLY STOP AT 2% (WM5) DURING THE PROCESS. WAT SHLD I DO. I HAVE BEEN ON THIS FOR ABOUT 2WEEKS. PLZZZZZZ HEP [email protected] IS MA EMAIL
Seems like the same story over and over again... sigh.
You first must get access to the old OS again. As you have not succeeded in doing any upgrade yet, the old OS should still be there. Do a hard-reset:
1.) switch off
2.) press l+r softkey + keep pressed until a next step tells to release them
3.) switch on device
4.) wait for white screen with advice on hard-reset, release L+R softkeys
5.) press key for hard-reset (should be 0)
Device reboots to old OS.
When old OS is up you MUST(!) application unlock the device before you can do anything else. The Orange devices are especially resistant to allow this crucial first step. I have no such device, but key to success is that SDA Application unlock tells that your device is successfully unlocked.
Look for C600 Unlock to find dedicated instructions.
Mind that after the application Unlock you need also the CID Unlock and (if SIM locked) also the SIM Unlock. All is possible for free, so no need to spend money for that.

Orange Branded Kaiser to Official HTC Rom

I am getting an Orange branded Kaiser next week and will want to revert it to the official HTC Rom, I have never done anything like this so am a bit green. I have downloaded the file RUU_Kaiser_HTC_WWE_1.56.405.5_radio_sign_22.45.88.07_1.27.12.11_Ship.rar
Can any one tell me if this is the official English version of the HTC rom and also is all I have to is follow the idiots guide in the other thread on this forum.
I'd recommend you ask orange for the sim unlock code before attempting this.
Unless you're happy to flash your phone and be unable to use *any* (including oranges) sim in it.

is it the same for T-Mobile? Had a HTC TYTN and now a T-Mobile Vario III and prefer to have the HTC rom because I cannot get the Windos live to auto sync / as messages arrive post a SR ever
Cheers

Your fine to upgrade as long as you don't touch the radio portion of the Rom.
HardSPL your phone, then decompile the HTC rom and create a new rom using only the OS portion. then install using Pofs custome RUU installer.
Cheers
I held back on changing my Orange UK ROM for the same sim-lock reasons. However I simply used HardSPL first & then flashed my phone with the Sleuth ROM as it doesn't touch the radio & therefore bypasses the sim-lock issue.
Am now very happy and de-oranged.

Apologies in advances for the noobness of this question. I have an Orange Tytn II and would like to use it on O2. I've been using the phone for calls, so it's unlocked. I've got Internet settings for the O2 Stellar from O2 and entered them but it still won't connect making it rather useless to me.
From reading it seems to by because the radio is locked to Orange? CID locked? is that right?
I've successfully run the HardSPL, which I understand will now enable me to install other ROMs. What I'm not clear on is if I do this if I will permanently SIMlock the Orange phone or if the HardSPL gets round this problem and I'll be safe to put on another ROM and so letting me get online and 'deOrangig the phone'.
I've read that I can put on a ROM as long as it doens't touch the radio. But does this releveant only if you want to stay on Orange? Will it let you use another network SIM? And which ROM would that be anyway.
Bit confused as you can see. Any help appreciated.

How Can I Improve My Orange HTC TYTN2

Hi,
I have just had my Orange Branded HTC TYTN 2 arrive (Think that its called the Kaiser) and I am looking at getting rid of all the horrible Orange branding stuff as its slows the phone right down and just looks ugly. Now, what I flashed the utility on my device (cant remeber the name but its the file that is needed before any flash is done is that helps) so now what do I do? I have downloaded the HTC rom but that is way below the version that is on my phone already (1.81) so that is where I am .. is there anything that I can do?
Thanks
Scott

If you feel brave, you can dump your current ROM, use the kitchen, strip it down, and flash it back. Also, just because the ROM version is lower does not mean the ROM is inferior. HTC ROM worked great for me but I moved to helmic's custom ROM because it was more stripped down.
Unlocked Code Error???

When does it ask you for an unlock code?
unlocking code
afer it have booted up and installed all the custom software,
its saying the following
SIM Lock
Network is locked. please input your unlocking code.
what do you think?
Thanks
You have sim-locked the phone. With the Orange phones you are only supposed to flash the OS ROM. Flashing the radio ROM results in sim locking the phone so even your Orange sim card won't work. Lucky for you apparently you can get it unlocked by paying one of the guys on here £25. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=314547&highlight=orange+sim+lock
go here http://www.imei-check.co.uk/kaiser-unlock.php I have used them before with no problems . You don't have to wait 3 weeks and it costs the same
Or as the advice above , this forum is littered with threads on problems flashing Orange phones , shame someone did not advise you of this . Still get it unlocked and you are free from all that Orange Cr*p and its Network lock

You should have read the sticky's on top of this forum first. Then you would have known you need to run Hard SPL first. I've done the same and have no problems with my rom.
You could still try flashing it with hard SPL and then again flash with a rom of your taste, but I can't garantuee it will work...
