Help I bricked my Magician - JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading

Hi,
I accidentally bricked my magician by trying to upgrade a damaged ROM.
Now I am not able to use the mtty.exe to get the backup of ROM on my SD Card. (256 MB)
First of all when I connect my Magician to the PC via USB with SD card inserted - i get the error message "USB Device not recognized" message. I took out the SD card, reconnected to PC and then inserted the SD card back in, started mtty.exe and typed d2s, my Magician's screen goes blank without any progress showing and mtty.exe does not appear to do anything.
Whenever I try to start my Magician - I'm stuck at SERIAL/USB 1.02 Bootloader screen.
I took out the battery, connected my magician to PC and inserted the batter - the magician now boots but gets stuck at I-Mate Splash Screen.
In this state, it can however connect to ActiveSync and I can browse the contents of Phone, Storage and Storage Card at this moment.
Can someone help me in fixing this issue? Much appreciated.

I managed to start my Magician, but still it is not working properly.
At the I-Mate splash screen, I connected it to my PC, went to \Windows folder >> went to Startup folder. I removed everything from there, restarted my Magician - it automatically went into the bootloader mode (the main issue that i'm facing) I took out the battery from it, while it was connected to PC and reinserted it back quickly. Now it is up and running again, but I can't flash it using USB now, everytime I try to do so - it restarts and sits in the Bootloader mode. I think my bootloader is not allowing me to flash my device.
Can I reflash my bootloader? If yes, then please can someone let me know the detailed procedure?

Id get the stock Rom and the No_id rom programmer thing, then use the no_id thing to update the rom while its in boot-loader mode..Oh and i find it helps to reboot my PC and swap to a differant USB port on the pc aswell

What I think is my Bootloader is damaged, it is not allowing me to flash any ROM. I can bypass the bootloader by taking out the battery while it is connected to the PC (the LED goes red when I take out the battery) and then reinsert the battery. Following this process, it does not goto the Bootloader screen, rather it loads the Windows. But when I soft reset it gets stuck at the Bootloader again.
Some of the files in \Windows folder are also corrupt and I am not able to flash my magician to replace them.
Can anyone give the steps to flash the bootloader - I have the bootloader.bin image from another Magician, but do not know how to flash it. plz help.

Can anyone help me?????

Check your inbox, I just sent you the drivers,for you to connect your device.

Hi, I downloaded the drivers and installed them on my PC, still I can't flash my mobile. Could you let me know how exactly to use these drivers as I might have done something wrong.
While trying to flash the RUU log looks like:

I'd suggest you start testing the device with the stock ROM image (from t-mobile or clubimate's website). This incudes the radio ROM and the extended ROM as well.
Open your device manager (right-click on MY COMPUTER and select MANAGE) then right-click on your PPC hardware, select UPDATE DRIVER. Browse to where you unzipped the drivers, and select WCEBUSH. (Driver is now successfully installed).
Manually place your phone in bootloader mode, then start the RUU update (using the NO_ID version). It should complete with no problems.

Thank you for the reply. I did exactly as you suggested but still the flashing is not complete. It gives me the same error everytime. Anymore suggestions?

Is there no chance of my Magician coming back to life?

I'm still thinking about the soloution. Your phone can enter bootloader, so its not a paperweight just yet. Give me another day or two to make a beter suggestion.

Thank you, eagerly waiting for your reply.
What I did was tried to upgrade my 2.03 TX ROM to 2.06 which I later discovered that was a Himalayan ROM. Maybe that helps.
Also I think that the bootloader screen on my cellphone is a bit different than it was previously (when my device was working fine) I think there was a faded rectangle behing the "Serial" and "1.02" text which is not there anymore.

Anyone, any suggestions?????

We'll soon have to post some MTTY.exe commands, so that you can execute "task 28" (erase the disk-on-chip ROM). I'm tryi to unbrick my Charmer as well, so we are almost in the same boat.
The easiest soloution, woud be for me to 'make and give you' my SD ROM image. This means that we'd have to have SD cards of the same exact size. The only card I have, is 512MB in size (so you know I'd be sending you a 512MB attachment). You'd then use either NTRW.exe or PSDWRITE to write it back to your SD card (of exactly same size).
Finally you insert the card in your phone, go into bootloder mode.
Press the required key, and your phone is flashed with the ROM from my phone.
NB: Lets not go this far, just yet. The procedure has a ~99% success rate, but its not easy for me to send such a large attachment to you on my internet connection (except if we were on an instant messenger).

hmmmm, the SD card won't be a problem for me as I can easily get the SD card of any size, but the problem would be in uploading and downloading the image. Do we have any other alternate?

I have a 512MB and 256MB card, so I'll have to send you the 256MB image that I'll create (via any standard instant message application).

Thanks, I appreciate that.
Could you please send me the file using the following service:
http://www.send-large-file.com/index_uk.php
If not, then let me know which messenger service would you prefer and what would be the preferred date and time for the same?

I have no problem using that service. The problem is that the RAW ROM image, isn't being read by PSDREAD or NTRW.exe (so I can be able send it to you by any means).
Give me a few hours, and I'll get the extracted ROM for you.

Hi, did you get any software to read the RAW ROM image?

I'm using PSDREAD and NTRW.exe , but it keeps giving me an error message about a checksum failure (then aborts the reading process).

Big Storage rom

I was reading through some posts, yesterday, where it was mentioned there is a ROM on the FTP already with the Big Storage hack, so essentially you just flash the lot. I've been reading how to do Big Storage, need it as want to put Voice Command in Storage (won't work off mem card, no space on phone mem) and the room I have at moment on Storage about 5mb says not enough room.
Is there a pre-cooked up Rom anywhere ? How hard is it exactly to do the thing yourself, when I keep reading it, its completely over my head.
Hi,
try the magician wiki, link upper right on the board. It's all explained there with a shippe-rom as a basis. Or go for the sd-flash method, there's a nice 1.13 on the ftp -) mine).
Instructions:
- download the 1.13BS rom from the ftp
- get ntrw.exe from the ftp
- Download romupdate from: http://forum.xda-developers.com/download.php?id=7510- Download the Hexeditor from:
http://www.hhdsoftware.com/hexeditor.html
- get a SD-card > 64MB
- make backup of everything you want to keep from your magician & SD-card. everything will be wiped!!
- fully charge your magician
- uncheck usb connection in Act.sync on your PC
- put your magician in Bootloader (camera & power & soft-reset at the same time for a few seconds) wait till screen fades & reads 'serial v1.0x'. Screen is very dark since backlight is of.
- connect usb, now the screen reads 'usb v1.0x'
- start romupgrade on your pc
- pick the magician connection in the listbox, wces something I belief
- now a screen pops up
- type d2s in this screen
- follow progress on pc & magician
- wait till checksum finishes
- get SD from the magician & put it into a cardreader. DON'T FORMAT!!!
- put ntrw in C:\
- start a command window
- type on commandline: ntrw read myrom.nb1 [sd driveletter]:
- follow progress
- error at the end is normal
- make a copy of myrom.nb1
- open myrom.nb1 & the BS rom with the hexeditor & replace the first 416 Bytes of the BS rom with the first 416 bytes of myrom.nb1 & save it to mybs.nb1
- type on commandline: ntrw write mybs.nb1 [sd driveletter]:
error at the end is normal
- put the SD in your magician
- now it should read 'press power to flash'
- press the power button
- watch it reaches 100% - checksum will always fail
- reset & hopefully enjoy the new rom
Cheers, M
After "watch it reaches 100% - checksum will always fail " , I reseted but the Magician not restart.
Please tell me How Can I Fix this problem.
Big thanks
Download a shipped-rom from the ftp. Put the device in bootloader, connect usb (magician should read USB now). Then start the shipped-rom.
Regards, M
i need a magician rom
i have tmob rom update is that enuff? i have to edit it dont i
Yes you need to edit it according to the wiki description. Though on the ftp is an edited NK.nbf available in ftp://xdaupload:[email protected]_NK.nbf/BIG_Storage_nk_for_rom_1.13WWE.zip
Cheers, M
i need a magician rom
thank you thank you... the hex editor wont open the file i created and i was drawing near to the bin. then i heard my yahoo. you have saved a mint condition t mob compact with grey facia from recycleing. i will send you an update when i install the rom
i need a magician rom
i got the rom ntrw to sd card... done
reset, pwr, camera .... i get serial v1.02
i am follwoing the big storage route. how do i get nk,nbf ontophone?
this is fun even tho i may mess up the phone
Yup you're mixing things up ;-) The nk.nbf on the ftp belongs to this method http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=MagicianRomUpgrade in which you do a shipped-rom update to BIG Storage.
The ntrw & SD-card method is described here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=MagicianSDflash & needs another rom image.
Read it once again pls & don't hesitate to react when it's still unclear. The wiki descriptions can still be improved.
M
i am completly lost
i have big storage rom from ftp but the method 2 put it on the phone doesnt wok with me. i tr putting it into boot loader mode but i just get serial or usb and when i put in the card nothing happens is it my 1gb sdcard. how do i get it onto the phone. i aint going sleep till its done. i may be tired, that could be the prob
still no joy
type on commandline: ntrw write mybs.nb1 {sd driveletter) ... i get here and it says write fail parameter is incorrect. also in hex editor the max filesize is nearly 1gb like my memory card. i am going for a quick nap now to rest up. will be back on it later. will post results when i get back to it
One question: did you transfer the first 416 bytes of your own rom-dump over the first 416 bytes of the downloaded rom image?
If you've dumped your own rom on an sd & wrote it to your pc with:
ntrw read myrom.nb1 <sd drive>
then do not format the sd when you put it into your card-reader & yes the image written to your pc will be the same size as your sd.
Complete instructions begin to end:
- download the 1.13BS rom from the ftp
- Download the Hexeditor from the ftp
- get ntrw.exe from the ftp
- get romupdate http://forum.xda-developers.com/download.php?id=7510
- get a SD-card > 64MB
- make backup of everything you want to keep from your magician & SD-card. everything will be wiped!!

Hope this helps, M
big storage
great i have now got to the stage where i put the sd into the magician but it still says serial v1.02 theres no press power. any tips
When the message isn't shown, your image isn't recognized. So either the ntrw write failed or you formatted the sd & ntrw wrote the image after the MBR. The image should be written right at the start of the sd over the MBR. You can solve it by dumping your current ro again, put the sd in your card reader don't format [\b] & write tge BIG Storage image with ntrw to your sd. The romdump destroyes the mbr & ntrw should write the image at the correct place. Now the bootloader should recognize your image.
Remember you don't need to save your dump to your PC this time.

i am nearl there
i have finally got the rom flashing from my sd card to the phone. i guess this is gonna work if i did everything poperly. why isnt there a fingers crossed emoticon

Bad news, my PDA likes yours, it cannot flash any rom now...
It's possible to revive them...but you'll need a special SD Card Image ROM...
Google a little bit about .nbh images, SD Rom Boot images, etc.
Once you have this special SD Card ROM Boot image prepared, you put it on the phone, put the phone in bootloader mode (camera + power + reset),and check the screen: - a message will appear telling you to "press power to flash", and you do it. Let it flash and reboot.
Magician revived.

Keeper

The file header of the SD Card ROM must be the same of my magician ROM, isn't it? Now the problem is I can't get the header of my magician ROM, when I use "d2s" command the magician dead.
Well i don't quite get what you mean by "header of Magician ROM"....i assume that you are refering to the bootloader...what version do you have? Does it says 1.2 or 1.0? Have you tried to flash a different bootloader from a different model or something?
Anyway, I don't quite get what is your problem exactly - Is it with the Radio part or windows part? Does the WM2003se boots or not ?
- If your problem is only with the WM2k3 not booting, then you must upgrade only with a ROM image for the OS (nk.nbf) - (Try and use an original ROM first...don't you use cooked ROMs.)
- If it's both WM2K3 and radio, then you need to put the nk.nbf and radio_.nbf on the same directory where the MaUpgradeUt.exe is.
- If you also want to upgrade your Extended ROM, then beside both files mentioned, you also need to have the ms_.nbf.
Anyway, regarding the radio part: try this: google for "MagicianRadio_1.13.00_maupgrade"
Finally: don't forget that you need to download and use the "MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe" or the magician will complain about the country code error + some BS.
Best Regards,
Keeper
I heard that the front 416 bytes of SD card ROM image must be the same as the PDA, and then can falsh it. The front 416 bytes of every PDA ROM are different, so I must get my magician ROM header (416B), but I cannot.
My magician can boot, but cannot be flashed a new rom. The error code returned to me is "Get Device Data Error".
btw, the bootloader is v1.02, how can I reflash a new bootloader? I don't know how to do that, maybe it can resolve the problem.
Forget about changing the bootloader - you could end up with a brick on your hands...besides, that's the latest (final?) version of the bootloader for magicians.
Anyway, that message seems to be related to usb data transfer between your pc and your phone...you DID disabled the "Allow USB Connections" on ActiveSync BEFORE TRYING to do an upgrade, didn't you?
If you use windows Vista, there's a known problem when trying to flash a new ROM with it...
check this link on how to use vista for ROM upgrades: http://mahmood1.com/upgrade_pocket_pc_ruu_in_vista.aspx
Best Regards,

My system is Windows XP, thank you all the same.
Okey, try this:
1) Download this image: http://www.t-mobile.nl/zakelijk/media/download/MA_TMNL_11300_132_11200_Ship.exe
(It's an original image from T-Mobile).
2) Extract the .exe content using winrar.
You will get the following files:
- EnterBL.exe
- GetDeviceData.exe
- RUU.dll
- RUU.conf
- UI.dll
- ROMUpgradeUt.exe
- nk.nbf
- ms_.nbf
- radio_.nbf
3) Delete the ms_.nbf, radio_.nbf and ROMUpgradeUt.exe files.
4) donwload this file: ftp://xda:[email protected]/Magician/Tools/MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe ...and put it on the above directory.
5) disable ActiveSync "allow usb connections".
6) put your phone in bootloader mode
7) run MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe and let it finish. (It may take some time...)
8) hard reset your phone.
Now, if you want to try to upgrade just the radio, repeat the above steps but delete the nk.nbf from that directory and and put a radio_.nbf there.
NOTE: You WILL loose everything that you've got stored on your phone...contacts, sms, etc...so do a backup 1st if you want.

Keeper
It not worked. The RUU.log is this:

I clicked "Upgrade" and it displayed "checking the information of your device..."...
Okey...the only way i see it, is to try an SD Card Upgrade.
I can try and craft you an image for your SD Card but i don't know if it will work on your SD Card... What's the size(s) of your SD Card (s)?
I don't want to e-mail you 1Gb image (i only have 1 and 2Gb SD Cards) and has so i need to do this ( http://buzzdev.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=18&Itemid=41 )...which i've never tried...so let's hope that the SD Card header won't be a problem...
Anyway, i can't do it now...i'll pm you later on, when i get some free time.
Regards,
Keeper
Thank you.
I have a 2 GB SD Card, but it didn't work, I think the reason maybe the header of the SD Card Image not modified. But I cannot get the header of my PDA.
Okey, here we go.
Do this:
1) Download this Emergency SD Card image: http://rapidshare.com/files/56985459/Emergency_SD_Card_Image.rar.html
2) Download the NTRW in attachment
3) Format your SD Card using windows XP format option
4) Copy both files (ntrw.exe and SDCard.img) to your C:\
5) Open a dos command prompt and type: ntrw write SDCard.img <sd card reader drive letter>
( do note that <sd card reader drive letter> must be replaced with your own SD card reader drive letter...example: "ntrw write SDCard.img e:". Also do note that when writing to the SD Card, some errors might appear...ignore them...the image is/will be there in your SD Card)
6) Put your phone in bootloader mode
7) Connect the usb cable or power cord to your phone (This is a MUST! or you won't see the next step)
8) Insert the SD Card on your phone and check if the screen message changes to something like " Press power to flash "
9) Do has told: press the power button and WAIT! (if it seems to stop, leave it that way...it will eventually end the upgrade)
10) Hard reset your phone when the upgrade ends.
Note 1: This SD image and procedure was tested on my phone and it works. The image itself is an original T-Mobile ROM 1.13.
Tell me how it went.
Best Regards,
Keeper
Happy to hear you again. But I cannot download the image. I will try.
I do this step by step, but after I inserted the SD Card on my phone, the screen message didn't change, it was "USB V1.02", if I disconnected the usb cable, it changed to "Serial V1.02".
It can't be...This image is in perfect shape. you must be doing something wrong or your bootloader is damaged seriously...
check this out:
- Your USB cable must be connected to your PC and ALSO to the Magician.
- Check if ActiveSync USB option is disabled.
- If both of the above are true, leave the SD Card inside the mini, and press camera + power + reset button again...(i've read that sometimes the process doesn't work at the first time...)
- Try to disconnect and connect the USB cable from your magician, with the SD Card inserted on the phone...check is the message on the screen changes...
Please post what you have tried already...
If nothing works, that means that your bootloader is f* up. You'll have to wait a little bit more so to give me time to check how to prepare an SD image (or an alternative way) for upgrading your bootloader.
Keeper
It not worked.
I just did as what you said. If I pressed camera + power + reset button with the SD Card inside, the screen was not changed even if I connected / disconnected the usb cable; but if I pressed camera + power + reset button without the SD Card inside, and inserted SD Card under bootloader mode, the screen can change from "USB" to "Serial", but I didn't see " Press power to flash ".
I think my Magician bootloader was corrupted, because the screen showed nothing after I typed "d2s" in MTTY. But I don't know how to upgrate bootloader.
Thank you very much.
Now I find a new problem: I couldn't delete some fonts files stored in "/storage/fonts", even if I hard reset PDA. After I setup a new font named QooQooCN, I cannot uninstall it, seems wince.nls running. But I still cannot delete /storage/fonts/*.ttf files. Why? If this is the reason why I cannot reflash my PDA?
Need help.
Coly, here it is the 1.02 bootloader from my device. Put it on your formated sd card like explained previously. Reboot in bootloader mode with the sd card inserted and with the USB cable connected...see if now you can get the "press power to flash"
If it still doesn't work, we will have to crack the passwords for the bootloader debug mode.
anyway, post your results, please.

2) you must Have Phone Synced with PC in Windows Mobile!
3) run PANTHER_CDMA_HSPL exe from the folder
4) follow steps in the program!
5) it should go to tricolour screen now, i.e. SSPL mode, and show 0.32.SSPL. now follow steps in the RUU that's launched by now.
6) SPL flashes, device automatically reboots, job done. if you get any errors, follow the instructions offered by the program.
7) to confirm you got it installed, go into bootloader mode (tricolour screen!) and verify the screen shows 0.36.CMONEX.
NOTE: you will not see the SPL version during normal boot!
to enter bootloader mode to see version: with the device turned on, press and hold the Camera button along with the Power button, then press the reset button with the stylus tip, then release the Camera and Power buttons when bootloader tricolour screen appears.
NOTE 2: anyone having problems with the device entering SSPL automatically or problems with USB connection after SSPL was loaded, please copy SSPL-Manual-PantherCDMA.exe from the SSPLManual.zip attachment to the device and run it. then once the screen is in SSPL, run RUU manually. i.e. you run the RUU on the PC, if it isn't obvious.
NOTE 3: this is unsigned Hard-SPL. no limitations on flashing ROMs. also, this has overwrite protection, if someone needs to revert to stock SPL for warranty reasons, a stock SPL downgrade package will soon be posted.
NOTE 4: do not use this RUU to flash anything else! this is only intended for flashing the HardSPL.
Finally, if you wish to thank me with a donation, you can do so by clicking the link the HardSPL program offers, or here: http://hpcmonex.net/htc/pantc/panther.htm
Troubleshooting tips:
- READ THE INSTRUCTIONS

- if you have USB issues:
1. anyone having problems with the device entering SSPL automatically or problems with USB connection after SSPL was loaded, please copy SSPL-Manual-PantherCDMA.exe from the SSPLManual.zip attachment to the device and run it (make sure USB is plugged in). then once the screen is in SSPL, run RUU manually. i.e. you run the RUU on the PC, if it isn't obvious.
2. if it still has connection error in SSPL screen, try unplugging and replugging the USB
3. try different USB port, PC, etc.
4. when there are sync issues, the program also suggests installing this file on the phone: http://hpcmonex.net/roms/enablerapinew.cab, just making a note here too.
5. it's been verified that you can flash HardSPL from SD in SSPL, see instructions below.
Updates:
HardSPL NBH file is now downloadable from 1st post! you can flash this from SD now; rename this NBH to PANTIMG.NBH, put it on a fat32 formatted SD, and then run SSPL-Manual-PantherCDMA.exe on the phone.
steps for stock SPL restore:
0. only use this for warranty service! for no other purpose!!! also before flashing this, make sure you already have stock ROM flashed.
1. download Stock_SPL_Restore_036.zip attachment from 1st post, extract it.
2. get customRUU and flash this file. can also do SD flash (PANTIMG.NBH).[/size]

Flashed or Not

Hi it seems like I need to do a new thread for this, I just need answers thank you
*upon checking my phone
I have this
ROM Version: 3.29.707.0 WWE
ROM Date: 05/07/08
Radio Version: 1.65.16.25
Protocol Version: 25.83.20.02H
and as I learn to check what Hard SPL is installed in my device (thanks to you guys ) it says 3.29. 0000 or something like that, so my question is... does my phone already have been flashed? if so can i skip to to loading the Rom i wanted, i do need help thanks
if not this is from mskip
1. MAKE SURE YOUR KAISER HAS AT LEAST 50% BATTERY POWER FIRST
2. Download and Unzip *THIS* File
3. Flash HardSPL 3.29 [ESSENTIAL]
Flashing via ActiveSync with USB Lead
1. Copy JumpSPL1.56-KAIS.exe, JumpSPL1.93-KAIS.exe and JumpSPL1.94-KAIS.exe to your device memory (NOT STORAGE CARD)
2. Pull out the battery and reinsert it (this step IS important) *DONT turn phone back on yet*
3. REMOVE SIM and SD CARDS!!
4. Turn phone back on and let it boot back into your operating system
5. Connect your phone to PC with a USB cable and wait until it syncs with your PC
6. Run File Explorer on your phone, browse to where you copied JumpSPL1.56-KAIS.exe on your device and run it (make sure the USB cable is still connected). If you get a white screen then reset your device and now try JumpSPL1.93 and lastly try JumpSPL1.94 if that one doesnt work.
7. CLick Continue on phone when prompted
8. After a few seconds the tri colour screen will appear on the phone and "USB" will be displayed at the bottom
9. Unplug the usb cable for 30 seconds and then Replug (phone will not re-sync but still says "USB" on the screen)
10. Right click on the Activesync icon in the bottom corner icon on the computer, goto connection settings, deselect "Allow USB connections" and click "ok"
11. Run the KaiserCustomRUU.exe file on your PC thats in the same folder as the HardSPL .nbh file and follow instructions (ticking boxes and clicking Next) *DO NOT re-enable USB Connections in Activesync*
12. Update will goto 100% (should take less than a minute), the Congratulations screen will be displayed on the PC and the phone will restart
13. Unplug USB cable from phone then REPLACE SIM and SD CARDS !!
14. Restart phone
*Remember to re-enable "Allow USB connections" in Activesync connection settings after a successful flash*
Flashing via MicroSD Card using cmonex HardSPL 3.29 [OPTIONAL]
FOR UPGRADING HARDSPL ONLY!! THIS WONT WORK UNLESS YOU ALREADY HAVE HARDSPL ON YOUR PHONE
1. Make sure your microSD is Formatted to fat32 (you dont have to delete all files but it is safer if you do)
2. Download Cmonex's HardSPL 3.29SD, unzip it and copy the 2 files into the root of your MicroSD Card
(KAISDIAG.NBH is basically an SSPL patched to load from SD without booting OS)
(KAISIMG.NBH is cmonex HardSPL 3.29)
3. Insert the microSD Card into the phone
4. Hold in the Power and Camera buttons, then press the reset button with the stylus for about 3 seconds until the BootLoader screen appears
5. It should say Loading / Update in progress and then to a screen saying SPL 1.00.OliNex
6. It should now say Press Power Button to flash or just flash the KAISIMG.NBH and then reset
7. At this point it should boot to the OS, if it doesn't then flash an OS (delete the previous KAISDIAG.NBH and KAISIMG.NBH from the SD Card and use Flashing Rom from MicroSD Card method)
8. After the Operating System loads, DELETE the KAISDIAG.NBH and KAISIMG.NBH files
*To check HardSPL version on your phone Enter Bootloader by Holding in the Power and Camera buttons, press the reset button with the stylus for 3 seconds until the tri-colour screen appears, then read the 2nd line which is the SPL version*
4. SIM and CID-Unlock [OPTIONAL]
For more reading go *HERE*
* YOUR DEVICE MUST BE SYNCHED WITH YOUR COMPUTER BEFORE RUNNING EACH STEP *
*Put your phone into Bootloader and update to a 6.1 Rom first if you get a black screen after Flashing the Patched Radio*
*If the program wont run u may need to install Microsoft .NET 2.0 on your computer to get it working*
1. Make a note of your current Radio in case you need to flash it back
2. Run KaiserUnlocker.exe, follow the instructions
(if you already have HardSPL on your phone you can skip straight to Step2)
3. After patched Radio has been flashed phone will restart and sync with the computer
4. On the Unlocker Program it should say Radio Patched at the bottom
5. Click on Step3 (Run Unlocker). This will bring up the Unlocker screen on your phone
6. If you want to check the status of your Sim Lock or CID Lock click the appropriate buttons
7. Click on Remove Sim Lock and Set CID, then click "Commit Changes"
* IF YOU DONT NEED TO FLASH A NEW ROM THEN PROCEED TO STEP6 TO PUT YOUR DESIRED RADIO BACK*

are the instructions from flashing hard spl 3.29 below it or what? I'm just confused coz' I found this tutorial here in the forums also http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2498297&postcount=10
Im just confused thanks
If you are confused, stop.
Re-read again and again, until it makes sense. Understanding the huge material around here is not to be taken in only one day.
I spent my early days 2 weeks by merely reading, collecting tools (and patches) before even attempting to flash.
I just needed an answer if my phone's already flashed that's it if it is flashed could i skip now on flashing my desired rom? that's just it, just answers from experts. I'm reading btw.
any help will do
On bootloader will say Hard if have hard-spl.
You could have asked in teh thread rather than starting new so as to keep forum clean.
On that note thread closed.

First of all: Instructions very unclear!
Second of all: Doesn't work for all the MTK phones. On my Jiayu S3A it didn't work. From a few days ago I can't connect to Orange (but to Vodafone as an example, I can), and this didn't solve the problem.

Flash the secro.bin file with sp-flashtoo, that shuld fix it. If the secro.bin file i did upload didnt work for you find the one that is for your device in its backup (from backup that u take from ur device before) or flash files for sp-flashtool (from internet)
