Yes! You could have used Search within this forum and would stepped over plenty of answers to this question. Also mentioned in the WIKI. Even 3 days ago someone asked the same question and opened a new thread for that, we gave him the same reply.

G4, and if you haven't touched it then it's definately CID locked and stays CID locked until someone releases a free possibility to have these devices unlocked.
I believe my G4 M600 is both Sim unlocked and CID unlocked, am I incorrect in thinking this as I can install other roms on this list?

No there is no free public available software to CID unlock a G4 yet. so be careful what you tell other people, they could take such assumptions for real and brick their phones.
Your G4 will most probably be not unlocked. Unless you used a paid service online to unlock it, and if you have done that you are sure to know!
Sim unlock != (is not) CID unlocked

Hi, guys, has anyone tried to do the SIM unlock AND CID unlock with your prophet through http://www.imei-check.co.uk/?
Some guys from wizard forum did unlock from that website. And I just got confirmed by an email from http://www.imei-check.co.uk/, read as following,
------------------
Hello,
our service will remove SIM and CID lock from ANY device with ANY firmware and ANY chipset (G3 and G4). After unlocking you can use ANY SIM card and you can flash ANY compatible HTC standard firmware (2.xxxx in your case).
To unlock XDA Neo just follow the XDA Neo unlock link:

IMEI-CHECK Team

Since my device is a G4, and it is impossible to unlock it by any other free solutions. So, I am wondering if I should give it a try with this website?
Actually, I have no problem upgrading to other ROM (like the recent QTEK WWE) with no-vendor ID RUU. But every time when I wanted to try a new ROM, I was kind of nervous and was afriad to brick my phone. CID unlock will certainly ease my mind and give me advantages and brave to try more ROMs.
I am sure a free solution for this is on its way and won't take long.
I can use my prophet with different operators. This means that my pda' s sim is unlocked! How can i know that my pda's CID is unlocked?
If you have a G4 (ipl ending with .0001) then it's not unlocked. (sim lock is not cid lock as you probably already figured hehe )
If you have a G3 however it's probably not unlocked too, but you have check the wiki how to unlock it. Maybe there is some infor there too how to check if it's unlocked yes or no? Since I have a G4 I don't know that
Back on topic, I dunno if it's worth the money to CID unlock a phone there. It could be handy if you do a lot of upgrading and want to downgrade or anything.
But as said, people are already busy with a free solution to CID unlock a G4, cause if they can do it we should be able to get around it too
It writes IPL 2.09
SPL 2.09.0000
GSM 02.07.20
OS 2.9.4.30
ıs it G4 or G3?

I guess you are right. But do you know if people are still working on G4 unlocking? It's been a long time. I thought they have given up already.
Well, I have absolutely no idea to be honest But I just assume they do since it's pretty important with all the rom upgrading going around.
It would be perfect if you upgrade with a not so good rom etc and I guess developers of homecooked roms would like it too.
Actually, I have no problem upgrading to other ROM (like the recent QTEK WWE) with no-vendor ID RUU.

Could you give some more info on how to do that or post a link? I have a G4 Prohphet and couldn't upgrade to QTEK WWE ROM. Thanks!

The protocol was proposed by Looking Glass, so, all the credits should go to him. I modified a little bit based on his procedure as following,
- Decompress and run the exe file (RUU_Prophet_220734_2207114_024721_QTEK_WWE_Ship.exe). Don't close your grey installing window.
- Locate the just created temporary directory, something like:
C:\Documents and settings\username\local settings\temp\rarXX , or pftxx or the like (look by time/date, it's, something created one minute before your current time)
- Copy the full directory and contents to somewhere else in your PC.
- Close the still opened grey window
- get ROMUpdateUtility_NoID.exe from the forum, and copy to the directory you just moved to your pc (You can get it from the ftp). Copy the ROMUpdateUtility_NoID.exe to your "new" directory, replace the original ROMUpdateUtility.exe.
- from this "new" directory you copied in your PC, execute ROMUpdateUtility_NoID.exe
That's it. Simple and easy.
i need to CID Unlock my Prophet G4, where can i get software, i want to install new ROM in English but i cant because is CID Unlocked to O2 Germany...
Thanks
the only way is to pay right now... imei-check.co.uk there is a tool for the hermes right now though maybe that can be used for a prophet ,too. You have to wait i guess or pay..
up
does not exist for moment..you have to pay for it i'm waiting too
i m thinking to try this "hermes" or any CID unlocker for G3, as i have G4 ???!!! or to wait
up
i'm advising you to wait...it's on your own risk to do with g3 cid unlock...but if you'll do, let us know
if your IPL is G3, you try this: http://bbs.pdafans.com/thread-275408-1-1.html.
if G4, try it at your own risk!!! better wait for better solutions.
This are my infos about my O2 XDA Neo:
IPL: 2.15.001
SPL: 2.15.001
OS: 2.15.4.47 GERMAN
Its terrible in German, i dont want to install any another software until i change language to English.
I will wait still get out any CID Unlocker for G4, i dont want to risk and to broke my pda.
One guy here in forum told me: "LvsW_First_and_Second_Part_8MB_Pool_Size you need only to install the second part of the Rom (8mb poolsize) with romupdate.bat (no need CID Unlock) this Works Perfect for locked G4 Neo´s (8mb poolsize is the fastest Rom)"
Have anyone tryed this ???
Hi,
I have upgrade the IPL to 2.20 (G4), my SPL is kept to 2.15. I'm using PDAVIet 5c.
I'm interested to know if my device is CID locked and how can I unlock it?
I'm also interested to upgrade SPL to 2.20 where is it? I can't find it in the forum. Should I take any consideration to upgrade it if my device is CID locked?
Thanks!

If you have G4 for CID unlock - http://www.imei-check.co.uk it will cost you +-30€. (They unlocked my G4 S200 Vodafone Spain). And for another info search wiki
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Prophet
HELLO,
I have read many forums on how to unlock the CID, but I am confused. I have read that it has not been done with the Universal, then I read a sticky that has the RUU and says it "bypasses" the CID. Well the biggets problem is that there are no instruccions on it.
Could someone please help me?
Is this why I enter where people offer roms, and have one for each variant? no CID unbloking required?
Please help! I want to start flashing, but I want to be sure of what I am doing.
One more thing, what is the RUU?
Thanks!
Read the WIKI
Eelco
the sim-unlocker by Buzz_Lightyear also unlocks you're CID
Olipro made an RUU that doesnt check CID
For these two reasons you dont need to make rom's for each brand of universal, however i know of at least one cook who does.
Download the CID unlocking tools from the FTP site http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_FTP_Site

Hello! Please, may you tell me where I can download it?
Thanks!
EDIT:
Is it this ftp://xda:[email protected]/Universal/Tools_and_Programs/HTC_Uni_SIM_Unlock_v1.rar ?
Thanks!
Well I did read wiki, but there is nothing clear on it. I will keep studying them.
My SIM is unlocked anyways, does that automaticaly give me the go?
Nope, SIM and CID unlocking are completely different. A SIM Lock makes sure you cant use different vendor's SIMs on your cell phone. The CID Lock makes sure that you cant use different OS on your PDA. Like, if you've got a T-Mobile OS installed that is CID Locked, trying to install O2's WM6 will mess up your PDA!
I have a Vox which is CID and SIM unlocked thanks to IMEI-Check.
I get Error 270 when I try and Flash a ROM. I do not understand why. The phone is CID unlocked so that means that I do not have to run UPSL? Am I misunderstanding something? What do I need to do to put a new Rom onto this phone. The guides all assume that your phone is not CID unlocked but I cannot find a guide that applies to CID unlocked phones.
Is there anyone out there with an answer?
USPL is the only thing you need to do, SIM Unlocking has nothing to do with flashing! You CID-unlock the Vox by doing USPL
Thanks - Ran UPSL and now have a wm6.6 SP!! I'm still a little confused IMEI-CHECK say there software CID unlocks your phone??? But UPSL still needed?
