I currently have IPL/SPL: 2.26 is it good to upgrade IPL/SPL to 3.08 i see alot of people have this. WM6 on my G3 Wizard. Can someone tell me what is the benefit of having IPL/SPL 3.08.... SIM/CID Unlocked.
i kno that when u update your IPL/SPL to 3.08 when you turn it on it starts the phone up faster...less time with splash screens...**(but it does boost your phone speed overall...i think...so small u would barely notice tho...)**
** - not sure
I dont suppose any of you guys have IPL/SPL v 2.xx to pass on do you ?? Or know where i can get hold of such? I tried to upgrade my miniS to WM6 but used the IPL/SPL 3.08 as i couldnt find v2. now i cant get the wm6 rom to take.
cheers. ANdy
It comes with the t-mobile rom.

I have a Wizard from Cingular that I unlocked to use an old ATT Wireless simcard with. I would like to install Windows Mobile 6, but I read that I'll need an IPL/SPL over 2.xx, but I currently only have 1.xx (forgot what they were exactly). How would I go about upgrading my IPL/SPL?
Thanks in advance.
The wiki is your friend.
As long as your Wizard is CID unlocked (best done whilst you are still running IPL/SPL of 1.xx) you can just flash a current Carrier ROM (T-Mobile seems popular) your IPL/SPL will be updated to something like 2.26 Once at 2.xx you can flash one of the ROMs described on this Forum.
Warning the whacky world of WM6 Wizardery is highly addictive.
I would recommend you keep your ipl/spl in the 2.xx range..there is no real benefit to going to 3.xx (ok some people claim bootup is like 4 seconds faster) but it can cause all sorts of issues if you ever need to install another rom and need to downgrade the ipl/spl. Details in the wiki I'm sure.
I'm triying to make UPGRADE with differents ROM but when the process finish i stell having the same OS WM5 from Tmobile, i did downgrade with botton downgrade rom i used LOKIWIZZ but ever happen the same, what i doing wrong?
ISPL 3.08
SPL 3.08
You should be more detailed in explaining things.
First Try to tell us step by step what errors are you getting.
On the signature you say ipl/spl 3.08 (it should mean you're cid unlocked).
So please describe the update rom process better
OK First I had IPL 2.26 and SPL 2.26 with TMOBILE wizard ROM I tryed to update to to WM6 HTC Professional + Home, everything in the process look in order, pass to 99 % in the Progress BAR and wait several minutes and i get again the tmobile ROM the same one, so read several post and I dicide to downgrade with Wizard Button ROM, and it was succesefully, I was in that moment ipl 1.05 something else and SPL 2.26, so I used, so I upgrade to the TMOBILE wizard ROM, and I get IPL 2.26 and SPL 2.26 and I'm tryed again to made a new UPGRade with the same ROM WM6 HTC Professional + Home and it was the same results again, so I made the UPGRADE with the IPS_SPL 3.08 File and now I m in this point now. So what i must do?
Downgrade IPL and SPL does not mean you have CID unlocked your phone. You need to use lokwiz02 to unlocked it when IPL is 1.01. Then first upgrade IPL to 2.2x / 3.08, after that you can proceed to upgrade WM6.
All instructions and links are in stickes.
hello all and thanks for the help
i have a g3 kjam after flowing the 3 steps
1.installing the rom that downgrade the ipl to 1.00
2.cid unlock
3.installing the rom that changes ipl/spl tp 3.08
any rom that i try to install finshes 100% succsesful
but still boot a wm5 rom with a new icon when starts
any help will be great
thanks
I thought you need a solid 2.xx rom to flash a new rom ??
Personally, I went from button 1.05 rom to TMobile 2.26 rom to new WM6 rom.
I flashed 3.08 later - as is does not change the O/S - only IPL/SPL. Did not find any benefit to it, so went back down to 2.26
Please note that there are freezing issues if you flash down from 3.08 to 1.05. Apparently the spl can freeze if you do this - and that is a problem. So, to play it safe - do not do that - thanks.
It is always recommended that you flash a solid 2.xx rom such as the TMobile one when going between the different WM6 roms available here - you may want to try that - go down to 2.xx, then upgrade to WM6
thats very good to know i'm actualy in a freeze spl is on 3.08
any idea hwo to downgrade?
I've attached a link to another thread about the freezing issue. Unfortunately, it does not give the answer as to how to fix it. But - should no one else answer on this - I would recommend that you send a private message to senior user "mestrini", and hopefully he can walk you through it.

I got my info from him as per the attached post. I do not have enough experience as to why it freezes - or how to fix it.
Good luck
Well,after downgrading to 1.xx and CID unlocking,its essential to upgrade to ipl/spl 2.xx for upgrade to wm6,its highly recommended to upgrade to 2.xx by flashing the T-mobile 2.26 for a solid base,but,however, you can still even upgrade to wm6 with ipl/spl 3.08.Wm6 works on 2.xx and 3.xx.

I believe your phone is still CID locked,you didn't do the CID unlock method correctly,but you upgraded to ipl/spl 3.08,now you can only CID unlock your phone by downgrading to 1.xx. Yes! SPL freezes if you downgrade to 1.xx from 3.08.So always first downgrade to 2.xx and then to 1.xx.Now I'll advise you to upgrade to IPL/SPL 3.08 again and then try to downgrade to 2.xx by flashing the T-mobile or Wizard_love Rom or official stock Rom of your carrier if other then T-mobile.If succeed to downgrade to 2.xx,only then flash Button's Rom 1.05 to get to 1.xx and apply the lokiwiz02b to CID unlock the phone.After that upgrade to 2.xx by flashing T-mobile 2.26 and upgrade to any wm6 Rom.
Cheers!
thanks for tring but device doesn't let me downgrade to 2.26 or any other 2.xx ipl/spl only stright down to 1.xx and like you said spl freeze on 3.08
when i tried wizard love it did the rom flash but still ipl/spl 3.08
i'll try to find my 2.xx official rom
It has been some time since I have been here and was wondering.
For someone who lives in California. AT&T
OS 1933
using TNT Build 18533.0.7.0
What is the best
Radio Version
IPL Version
SPI Version
to use. With the lease amount of errors.
And should I upgrade to the new TNT version? What is the benefits?
Thank you.
Firstly, taht is IPL and SPL, don't get it wrong.
IPL and SPL is currently at 3.08, which should be best for WM6 and WM6.1 OS ROMs.
For Radio, just use the one that get best reception as soon as it is 2.xx.

Hi guys.
I have this iMate Kjam (Not mine). It was with a T Mobile Official ROM and has IPL/SPL at v2.26. I checked and there was no G4 sign anywhere. Someone had to remove the CID thing to this. I downloaded several WM6 ROMs but once the complete flashing and the device reboots, I'm still in the T-Mobile ROM. I down-flashed to the age-old Button Love WM5 base ROM and here is the ROM status:
IPL: 1.01
SPL: 2.26
GSM: 1.12.10
OS: 1.5.4.2
If I upgrade from this point with, let's say, TNT5.0, here is what happens:
IPL: 1.01
SPL: 2.26
GSM: 1.12.10
OS: 1.5.4.2
Same right? but all the graphics change when booting. There is the HTC logo when device is turned on and there is the TNT 5.0 "BOOM" title when OS is loading (with the IPL/SPL/GSM/Radio)
Can someone tell me what is going on? HardSPL (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=332320) clearly tells me that device is NOT G4

Update:
I was able to install the official T-Mobile ROM onto Button Love ROM. Here is the screen statistics:
IPL: 2.26
SPL: 2.26
GSM: 02.25.11
OS: 2.26.10.2
If I try to upgrade to WM6 now, nothing will happen as I've already tried. After the flash process, it will still be official TMobile...
What should I do now? If I compare the properties of this Wizard with my own, I'm pretty sure this should be a G4 device.
Flash Buttons ROM again and do a CID unlock. That's it! Have fun!
I have a G3, but I had to flash Button twice so that the IPL/SPL matched, then I unlocked and reflashed 2.26 stock (again be sure that IPL/SPL match numbers), then from there I joined rom flashers anonymous!

The only avaliable HardSPL tool doesn't recognize the device as G4... so how do I forced CID unlock? I tried SoftSPL... but at that time, my IPL and SPL were different...
Lets face the situation
IF you have
IPL 2.26 or 1.xx
SPL 2.26 or 2.XX
You have a G3 device - forget do not use Hard SPL or Soft SPL, these are ONLY FOR G4 DEVICES
Since you have a G3 Device you have 2 options
If you have IPL 1.xx and SPL 2.xx . use WST (Wizard Service Tools) to unlock your CID device
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=329170
Note that only with IPL 1.xx you are hable to unlock your CID with WST
If you have IPL 2.xx and SPL 2.xx, than you must downgrade both to IPL/SPL 1.xx with an official ROM
Before you do something, install WST in you PC, and check the real situation of your device

Excellent.
If I'm on Button Love ROM, I have IPL v1.x ad SPL v2.x
Should I upgrade to WM6 from here?
If not, then I have to upgrade to Officia T-Mobile ROm. Then IPL/SPL = v2.26 but WM6 won't flash...
Ah ! c'mon guys

Ok, if you are on IPL 1.xx and SPL 2.xx, you can use WST-Wizard Service Tool 4.2.2 to CID unlock
Then you should load a carrier ROm T-Mobile to get IPL/SPL 2.xx
But allways read as mentioned in the previous post
