Well I am in a good mood so I will answer quickly before you get flamed...
READ READ READ - It looks you are running a stock ROM. I have no way of knowing if it is unlocked or not.
First you need to upgrade to a 2.XX ROM. I would suggest unlocking it yourself to be on the safe side. READ and follow the directions exactly!!
Then upgrade to this ROM, again, after READING and following directions exactly.
WARNING - You can kill your new toy if you do not READ and follow directions exactly. Even if you do, you may still have problems. THAT is when you start asking questions here.
Cheers!

Thanx for the help.What 2.xx rom would u recomend?Do i need a new bootloader?

Again, you need to read
Go to this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285435
Read and understand everything about it. This will tell you how to CID unlock your phone. Since you are IPL/SPL 1.00 then you don't have to do the Button rom downgrade (that would be an upgrade for you . You can try starting with lokiwiz (step 4 I think) and go from there. But if you get errors from lokiwiz then put the button rom on and do it again. Then continue with the steps and upgrade to the T-Mobile 2.26 ROM. That will get your IPL / SPL to 2.26 and give you a nice stable platform to work off of. Then (and only then) you can start looking at putting on custom roms like WM6.

so i have a G3?

thanks alot vippie thats excatly wat i needed

(newbie) frustrations...

I understand all the stickies that are posted before this post and all the other people who has had the same issues but I really need an anwser to this question that I have not found yet...
I have followed all the steps in every tutorial I have found in this forum for my phone to be upgraded to WM6 (shelltool, "follow these easy steps", etc..) but everytime I follow these steps word for word I always end up in the same start up screen (where IPL/SPL & OS is shown)...
What am i doing wrong? Should I update my radio (2.25) to "2.19" before or after installing the new rom? I mean thats the only conclusion that I come up with...by the way I tried that and I got one screen farther, its just that I got the startup intro bleep and the white screen of eternity....help anyone?
Cingular 8125 G4 (CID/SIM Locked)
IPL 2.25.0001
SPL " "
GSM 2.25.11
OS 2.25.1.11 (lastest WM5 cingular update)
-IF everyone decides to tell me to look it up, well fine, I guess I'll have no choice and spend another two weeks of searching the endless database....

You have a G4, shouldn't you be using LokiWiz to CID unlock it first?

thanks alot!
hope it works!

DO NOT USE LOKIWIZ!!! you have been misinformed. if you have a G4, Lokiwiz will not unlock your phone and might brick it.

I don't think G4's can be CID unlocked with that tool.
When using shell tool, make sure that you have first installed Cert_SPCS and EnableRapi to your phone. Wait approx. 2 minutes, then soft reset. After soft reset, make sure the time and date are correct on the phone ( I can't get successfully flash unless I do this), then turn off the radio. Run shelltool. Some ROMS don't give an end message. If I haven't gotten an end message in 20 minutes, I open the task manager and end shelltool and pdocwrite in that order, then hard reset.
Good luck.

oh yeah, G4s can only be unlocked via IMEI-check.

thanks for the warning, i guess i can try waiting 2 mins after installing both cabs and checking the date and time...

I don't update my radio until after flashing a new ROM.
One way that I know I've had a successful flash is that approx. 10 -15 seconds after the IPL/SPL screen loads, the screen will dim just a little bit. If you aren't looking for that, you might not even notice that the screen is just a little bit dimmer. If I don't see that, I will flash Wizard Love and start the whole Shelltool process again.
Also, the first boot takes a little bit longer than normal.

Make sure b4 you go ahead and flash G4, read all about it. Its easier to Brick G4 than G3.

I looked at your initial post again and the IPL/SPL indicates that you have a G3 not a G4. A G4 will have 2.25.0001 instead of 2.25.001. Check that again. If you have a G3, you don't have to use Shelltool, but will have to use Lokiwiz after all.

make sure that you hard reset after fnish to flash with shelltolls
if this dont work, first apply shelltools and then a wm6 rom
always works here!

A Noob in desperate need of help

Ok,
I have posted this problem in a couple of threads, but it always seems to get lost in the page after page of other questions.
Here is my problem. I have been reading this forum for weeks in preparation of upgrading my Cingular 8125. I got it 2 weeks ago, but still spent another week reading the tutorials and FAQ's so I wouldn't be a nuisance poster. Well things have gone so badly that I really need help.
I have a Cingular 8125, IPL/SPL 2.25 I have button flashed it over 20 times and I get an IPL of 1.08, but my SPL is still 2.25. I have tried other flashing methods, other files. I tried Xda_MiniS_LaunchROM_v154102. I have cleared the computer with nothing running. Booted and re-booted. I have gone back to 2.25 and tried button again and again.
I am so disappointed because I have spent so much time at this site, but can't even get past the first step towards flashing a new ROM. Please, any help would be appreciated.

It sounds like your phone is CID locked (this is something different as SIM-locked btw). I do not really know if this also affects whether or not you are able to flash IPL/SPL but it affects flashing the OS for sure.

hi there ..
check this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285435
at step # 13
13. You will see a screen that has ...
U. Unlock
L. Lock
C. CID Unlock (SuperCID)
Q. Quit
first key in "U" to unlock and then
you should key in letter "C" for cid unlock .
check step #16 you will see
16. Watch the rebooting of your PDA, if BOTH IPL and SPL are 1.xx then great. Quite probably your IPL will be 1.xx and your SPL will be 2.xx. Rerun the button 1.05 ROM downgrade a second time and it will become 1.x on both IPL and SPL. You don't need to redo the unlocking.

Hoang,
You ran lokiwiz and it worked with an SPL of 2.25? It is my understanding that both IPL/SPL need to be 1.xx for lokiwiz to work. I'll give it a try though.
Steve

as i state , follow that step thru slowly and carfully, you will get it done. But first remember by heart that you have to make sure that you got a "G3" or "G4" ...very IMPORTANT

Hoang,
Thanks for your replies. I'm sure it is a G3 because my IPL/SPL are 2.xx, not 2.xxx, which I have read is how you tell the difference. I have followed that post word for word.
I have been hitting "U" as the post states and it always fails. I assumed it was because my unit has not downgraded completely following step 2, so I didn't think step 4 would work until step 2 was done right.
But I will try your way as soon as I'm done my coffee and report back. Thanks again for your help.

You're on the right track
In addition to the great help that Hoang and other members have given you, I would suggest having the Wizard Unlocking Wiki and Dr Puttinghams Definitive unlocking guide within arm’s reach. Both of these compliment vippies tutorial. Here they are:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=285435
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Wizard_Unlocking
Two months ago, I unlocked my 8125 G3 (2.25 IPL/SPL) with no problems refering to all three of the tutorials (I just wanted to be safe).
After you initially downgrade your ROM to the Button ROM (you would only perform this step once)….
You only have to worry about having the same values for both the IPL/SPL after you run Lokiwiz twice (once for sim unlock and the second for the CID unlock). Your wizard will reboot both times, if you did it correctly.
At this point is when you need to make sure that your IPL/SPL are the same (i.e., 1.xx). If it isn’t, then you would be required to run the Button Rom again.
Somebody has gone through the same problems as you have experienced…check out this old thread from last year:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=277248&highlight=successfully

Stupid me. I am the perfect example of people who have read things over and over and still missed something.
When running lokiwiz, I copied the enablerapi.cab to my phone, but failed to go back to my phone and extract it.
Everything is perfect now. Phone is SIM and CID unlocked and I am already playing with the ne TNT 5.0 Touchflo edition.
Thanks to Hoang, reynavictor and everyone else who responded.

well, we should thanks to all the people who wrote up the instruction, and all those programer that create new rom for us to flash.
keep in mind that , there will be more new people like you and me suufer thru the unlock step. so prepare to help them out as paying forward ..

Same issue
Hey I had the same issue with my 8125 on my first attempt. Again, read the tutorials, very important.
This is how my 8125 really became cid unlocked:
[First I used Lokiwiz2 to cid unlock. I then flashed the button rom. When I flashed I had IPL 1.xx and SPL 2.25. I ran the lokiwiz2 again and successfully cid unlocked (prior to this I received an error from lokiwiz). This 2nd unlock attempt with the button rom did it for me. After the cid unlock, I reflashed the button rom and both IPL, SPL were 1.xx.]
Now flash an OEM rom (Tmo or Cingular) so you dont have memory leaks. Now your ready to flash a WM6 rom.
Hope this helps.

If only we were all so rich... When I first started, I downloaded a WM6 Rom I found on this forum but read nothing... Tried to flash it, phone went to bootloader immediately afterwards and would do nothing else. I called T-Mobile and they sent me to the place on T-Mobile.com where I could get the official Rom download and was able to restore my MDA to life again but not until I had read about 20 different threads, did I attempt it again.
Thats the problem with some people here. They don't read and just assume that because they're a Software Dev that they automatically know everything or think that because they're pretty computer savvy that they know what they're doing or think that because they had their device for a few months that they're automatically an expert... It's annoying to tell you the truth because the only real way to learn is through a lot of reading, or trial and error and thats how everyone here has to learn.

I read this forum for a few MONTHS before I flashed my device, and I'm glad I did. Not only do you have to READ the information, but you also have give it time to SINK IN so that it is fully understood.
There are some people who automatically cry out for help without expending any effort (NOOBE needs help! give me a link, fix this, WAA WAA). And then there are the ones who make this a great forum, they READ READ and REREAD, TEST and RETEST and generally provide knowledge, information and assistance.
All of us are riding on the backs of the mostly unsung developers Like Faria, Bepe and all the others.

I'm not interested with the Underground WM6 but when MB_WM6 did not work, i thought of trying that.
I have a question here, i tried installing MB_WM6 and it stopped at 95%, later i tried to install Faria's kitchen ROM and it was successful. I tried unlocking the CID with lokowiz03. Do u people still feel that my phone is still CID locked.

Download WST tool and run it,it'll give all the info about your phone to determine the present status of your phone,only than it can be confirmed if it's cid locked or unlocked.
btw,faria's kitchen is for cooking the custom rom according to your own needs,it contains the Base Rom,OEM,RUU... and tools to build a rom.Did you cook your own Rom and flashed ?

do a soft reset of your phone , tap with stylus the soft reset button on the phone.the phone will reboot,see if it changes the spl,otherwise flash button's rom 1.05 a couple of more times and then do the soft reset,hope it'll change

Sorry...for posting the same info in a new thread......one more question here how to do a soft reset...is it by using ur WST tool. By keeping the power button pressed it will ask that device will be turned off....is this soft reset...or is there any other way to do

To perform a soft reset,use the stylus to lightly press and hold the RESET button on the left side of your device,it's a small hole type just underneath Infrared port,you just can't miss it,ok

If you are already using that phone with T-Mo, then security unlock, hard spl and flash away! The best thing to do here is read read read! And dont be suprised if they move your thread! You can PM me though if you have any more questions! I will help you if I can!

As far as what you mean by " lose my lock" I am not sure, but, you will need to CID unlock and hard-spl for sure! Do you have the AT&T Windows Mobile 6 or 6.1? I canot stress how important it is to read everything you can and be as informed as possible before you flash! I dont want to sound like I dont want to help (thats why we are here) But If you are already SIM unlocked it would still be wise to follow all the steps just to make sure you are covering all your bases, after all we do love our phones alot (often brought up by my sometimes jealous girlfriend!

As far as what you mean by " lose my lock" I am not sure, but, you will need to CID unlock and hard-spl for sure! Do you have the AT&T Windows Mobile 6 or 6.1? I canot stress how important it is to read everything you can and be as informed as possible before you flash! I dont want to sound like I dont want to help (thats why we are here) But If you are already SIM unlocked it would still be wise to follow all the steps just to make sure you are covering all your bases, after all we do love our phones alot (often brought up by my sometimes jealous girlfriend! LOL!

No SPL is the bootloader on your phone when you hard SPL it keeps you from bricking your phone and allows you to flash non oem ROMs! If you Follow and read the links I just posted for you, you will be fine! I also use T-Mobile on a Tilt and I followed the steps and read alot and everything worked out perfect! I had to do the whitescreen fix, so it does work! I hope that helps!
P.S. Follow the instructions step by step, they are very important! Time consuming but worth it!

thank you very much

Please re-read the Newbies threads if you need an explanation as to what HardSPL is and how to install it and then flash a ROM. If you merely SIM unlocked to get on to T-Mobile, you will still need to CID unlock, so as a precaution you should do EVERYTHING in the newbies guide. Also, instead of just asking what HardSPL is, try following the links provided.
The community tends to be much more helpful when you have done your research and taken initative before asking for a direct hand out. This thread is better than average, but I thought I'd give you the heads up before flames come in from others.

Also note, the steps saying to remove your SIM and SD cards are very important.

thank u flashed it already.......sorry for the simple question re: hard spl.

HardSPL
Follow the tutorials. Get Hard SPL. Don't cut corners, you may brick your phone. Hard SPL will allow you to flash basically worry free.
It's great that your phone is unlocked, but that doesn't mean you can't brick it. I'd try to explain in greater detail, but the sticky posts at the top of this forum should be much better at it than I am.
