Running Wizard Love ROM

I am trying to update to WM6 (various versions)

I tried to CID unlock and the following was the result. Not sure if it was done successfully or not.

Anyways I went ahead and tried to upgrade using 5._Underground_edition_Crossbow_ROM.

This started and reached 96%. At that point I got a communication error after about 2-3 mins.

Result - stuck in bootloader mode. I then went back and put back the Wizard Love Rom.

Tried the WM6Titanium_Version2 Rom, went 100%, but Wizard Love Rom booted back up. If I am not mistaken this would mean that its still CID locked.

I am unable to download the shell tool to try that unlocking method.

What are my options?
What can I try?
What am I not doing right?
What am I missing

Instructions I followed

You have a G4 device,

I would follow the directions and read the info mentioned in step G4.5 again!

Ok I used the shelltool and flashed to Titanium. Once I get windows live cab I will be good.

You CAN'T unlock a G4 device for FREE!!!!

There are a lot of stickies and even the thread you followed says clearly that you must jump to mum's thread to flash a ROM WITHOUT unlocking the CID.

READ people, READ! You can avoid a lot of headaches (for you and the others :p)
