First of all I am so sorry to bother you all!!!, as I can see from 3 days of non stop reading here and e;sewhere:confused:, its not always liked to ask questions, but I am sorry I really need help!

I bought a 8125 cingular from eBay (bought a x01ht but it hasnt arrived)
I have read seriously so much I am now confused! But I have tried to research this 100%

when I got the phone yesterday, I first sim unlocked it with the "All HTC" unlocker.. then I used unlock ext rom wizard, and Likiwiz02 for the cid.. I did see it say "your phone is superCID" unlocked or what ever...

I then tried to flash with x2h_wm 6.5 and it went through the steps like it should and finished and said your rom is updated, BUT when the phone rebooted, it was like it went DOWN not up.. I lost alot of things and now it said G not E for network, I had less signal, and had the roaming Icon. Well, after that My XP computer would no longer recognize the device.. I would plug it in and it would charge, and the active sync tries to connect but after a few minutes it says it can not connect.

I am able to "sometimes" connect top my Vista" device, BUT I have not yet mastered being able to flash a rom with Vista... as I always get RUU is closing, because of error.. and it leaves my phone in bootloader RUU mode, so i have to reset it. I have tried the instructions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=291723 and One time I was able to get pretty far without an errors from RUU, but it said I needed a newer version.. or something, and after that I am unable to do it do any RUU on vista, although most of the time I can get it to connect by going to the services- and restarting wm 2003 thing"

This is the details of my device (and yes I know is a G3)

IPL & SPL :2.25
gsn: 02.25.11
os: 2.25.11.1
Ext Rom: 2.25.11.102
Radio: 02.25.11
Rom 2.25.11.1 WWE (build 14928.2.2.0)
protocol ver: 4.1.13.12


My question is.. What am I doing wrong? How can I get either XP to connect, or Vista to run RUU?

Can I flash by sd card.. ( I have seen both yes and no, and am confused on how to do it)

Tweeks I have done is installed a cab to remove roaming icon, reg. changed the G to E for Edge... Speed it up bu changing mem. and I think that's pretty much it!

Scream at me and call me stupid, BUT Please help me.. There are 10000000000000 different HOW TO all over the place, and all are different, and I really just would like a little PERSONAL help from someone..

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!

Tony

Also.. On the Activesync issue.. I have uninstalled and delete all tracers on my xp laptop and reinstalled both the newest version , and when it did the same, I uninstalled and reinstalled an older version... Still the same!

Although I received no answers, I thought I would upddate... I am so embarrassed, as the active sync was an easy fix.. (disable Firewall) I cannot believe it is that simple, as it was working fine before with firewall..

Ok I am following the instructions now flashing with XP button rom, etc etc.. Will follow up later!

Well, I was able to flash to phone to button rom, and then CID unlock it with lokiwiz, but My IPL and SPL are different. SO i flashed button rom again, and its still the same... Can I go ahead and flash back up, or what do I need to do?

IPL 1.01
SPL 2.25

Connect the phone to the PC and run Wizard Service Tool and press Enab. RAPI + Unsigned Apps button.
Then press CID Actions Button and Read CID block, this will tell you if your CID unlocked.

Well, I will try that, BUT I am assuming since I have a Tmobile ROM on a ATT phone its no longer unlocked???

When I ran the unlocker it said it was now SuperCID unlocked or whatever..

I will do the Service tools and see.. and Post back soon! THANKS

OK.. I ran the tools and it said it was CID locked... this was the results (not sure if usefull or not)
Checksum : fb67d2a2
CID: WIZCNG01

Its funny because when I ran the other lokiwiz it said it was unlocked..

I tried to unlock it and it said downgrade SPL to 1.06 or less.. AND thats the problem... When I Loaded Button rom the 4 different times I have had to flash it.. THE SPL never changes down.. One time I flashed it, I repeated it 3 times as per some instructions i seen that if you flash it again it will change.. NOPE did not change, the IPL always changes, BUT SPL stays the same.. SO If I flash again, this is the results SPL 3.08 IPL 1.01

Can anyone help me .. maybe use a diffrent rom instead of button?

HELP PLEASE!

THANKS

Have you tried to go back to the original ROM?

I am still tinkering, and adding patches now... BUT I was able to get wm6.5 (VERY SLOW ON MY WIZARD) so I went back to button rom, and installed XDA Mobile 6 Release 5 ROM, and I LOVE IT!!! like I said I am still adding stuff and playing with it, but so far its better than WM6 I have on my Cheetah (treo750)...

I will add the steps I took , and trial and error steps, so other people that are impatient and ask questions like I did, will know what to do.,.. BUT let me play with my new toy for a while!!!

One question.. Should I stay with IPL/SPL 2.26? Or should I go back up to 3.08 or ?????

Thanks
