cingular 8125 upgrade and carrier unlock? - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario ROM Development

Hello, I would like to upgrade my cingular 8125 to the latest WM version and Carrier unlock so I can get a better selling price. Can anyone point me to a vanilla rom and instructions? thanks, matthew ke5wxn
Ps its a G4

To SIM/CID unlock your phone take a look at Wizard Windows Mobile 6 for newbies at section ''2.Unlocking (CID and SIM) G3 and G4 Tutorials''.
Then take a look at one of CRACING's or X2H's Roms threads. You will find some clean ones.-

Newbie question: What is G3, G4, etc - and how do I tell?

Hello - This forum is a great resource; unfortunately the wiki portion isn't quite ready yet...
I've done a forum search on this topic (using the "search" function), but it wasn't very useful. Google was more helpful - I've learned that apparently G3 or G4 has to do with the kind of flash memory used on a HTC Prophet.
How do I tell if my device uses G3 or G4 flash memory?
I just picked up a Dopod 818 Pro last week. It was brand new in the store, but I'm not sure when it was actually produced. The case features the newer, easier to read style Dopod logo (as opposed to the logo that looked like a bunch of circles with some dots above or below).
It seems to have the most basic/early ROM version there is - 1.0.13.21 WWE.
The ExtROM version is: 1.00.13.102. The ROM date is 11/24/05.
From what I'm reading here, I think my device would benefit greatly from a firmware upgrade.
To do that, I need to know - is this a G4 or G3 device? Do I need to CID unlock this device in order to put new firmware on it?
Thanks for your help and input.

Hi Dan, if your SPL ends in .000 you have a G3 chip, if it ends .001 then you have G4. softreset you device to see the IPL and SPL version.
You will need to CID unlock your device before changing you ROM.

as i know, you don't have to CID unlock your device. You only have to change the Romupdateulility.exe (extract the downloaded .EXE file with winrar) with this file
ftp://[email protected]/Up...AKU2.3_LvsW_edition/ROMUpdateUtility_NoID.exe
Thanks a lot, everyone!
I have my Dopod up and running the latest 2.151327 firmware now!
The help is much appreciated.
Take it easy,

Guys, just about to sell my Magician for ProphIt
Please advise what's the fuss about G3 and G4, is G4 better than G3. I mean, if other things are the same, what would you choose G3 or G4? what other advantages and disadvantages?
Thanks

Limitation of G4 phones?

Hi,
I own a G4 Prophet (SPV M600 form Orange) and I have some questions about it :
- What are the limitations of a G4 device in comparison with a G3 one?
- What are the limitations of a CID-locked device?
- Do I have to SIM-Unlock my device to do any upgrade?
- Is there any way to do a backup of my rom, since it seems that I can't CID-Unlock it?
Thank you very much per advance

Since it seems that (please correct me if I'm wrong) with a G4 locked device, I can upgrade to several roms including WM6 "nghianga" and "smart clear" (maybe AKU3.3.07.ASERG and more?), I wonder what would be the benefits of unlocking my device? The only problem I see for now is that there is no way to backup my original rom...
Be patient, read Wizard forum about partial flashing ;>

WM6 with VPA compact II

Hello together!
After reading and trying everything I found in the last 2 days I have to start a new thread. I managed it to update my phone to IPL/SPL 3.08, GSM 2.69.11 and OS 2.26.10.2. Now I'm trying to flash my ROM to TNT5.0 for example. It completes, my mobile is booting and I always have the same ROM (OS) version in it... What am I doing wrong????
Thanks
JOE

Please Help. NEED ROM WM6.I M New To This?

Where Can I Find Wm6.0 So I Can Downgrade My Kaiser To Unlock It. I Have Wm 6.1 Now And After All I Read It Seems That I Can Not Find The Att Wm 6.0 To Downgrade My Htc 8925. Thank You So Much In Advance If You Can.
I believe the Wiki has links to official shipped ROMs of the AT&T and HTC varieties. You may want to actually do your searching in there.
It Did Not Work.. The Mobile 6 Standard,
If all you are needing to do is unlock your Kaiser, they have an unlocking tool available in the Wiki you can use to unlock your Kaiser. It worked on mine perfectly fine, and I was running WM 6.1 -- did not need to downgrade.
