--------------------------------------------------------------------- HTC Hermes SIM & CID Unlock – v2a --------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a patched radio ROM that can be used to remove the Operator SIM lock and CID lock from HTC Hermes based telephones. It can be used in all HTC Hermes devices, this includes the following: HTC TyTN / O2 XDA trion / T-Mobile MDA Vario II / Vodafone 1605 VPA Compact III / Orange SPV M3100 / Dopod CHT 9000 / Dopod 838 Pro / hTc Z / Qtek 9600 / iMate JasJam / Cingular 8525 / Swissom XPA v1605 / SoftBank X01HT / UTStarcom 6800 / Vodafone PDA 1605 Warning: It is only intended for use on these devices. If you run this upgrade on any other device than HTC Hermes, you will most probably render it DEAD! Disclaimer: This is free to use but at your own risk, I take no responsiblity for any conflict, fault, or damage caused to your phone by this unlocking procedure. It may invalidate your warranty. Full caution is advised. Website: http://pof.eslack.org/hermes-unlocker/ Install Instructions: 1. Enter bootloader mode on your Phone. To do this, simultaneously hold side OK and POWER buttons together and reset with stylus. [You should see SPL-1.04 on the top of the tri-color screen, if you see SPL-1.06 this unlocker will not work, please wait for the next version] 2. Connect your phone to your computer using the USB lead. 3. Run the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe program – this will reflash your phone with a patched radio ROM required to unlock. 4. Wait patiently. 5. Once the MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe upgrade completes, it will end up saying "Upgrade Error 114", but the patched radio ROM will be flashed anyway, dont worry about that error! 6. Soft reset with stylus (Device will not be hard reset and no data will be lost) 7. Allow your phone to reboot. Once it has, connect to your PC using Activesync, and copy the HERM_Unlock_v2a.exe program onto your phone. Alternatively, copy it to an SD card and insert into your phone. 8. Run HERM_Unlock_v2a.exe on your phone. Wait about 1 minute. 9. You should see a "SUCCESS!" message from HERM_Unlock_v2a.exe, after that soft reset your phone. 10. Process is (hopefully) complete! 11. If the phone requests unlock code when you put a locked SIM, the code is: 22051978 Donations: I spent some time and money developing the free unlocker, there's no need to pay me for that, but donations are always appreciated.
