Hi All:
I'm moving along! After a lot of reading, and a lot of worrying, I got my Treo unlocked!
Here's where I am at this point with my Cingular (USA) Treo 750:
I did do the Hard-SPL that is also known as "Cheetah Unlocker" , in the thread called "Hard-SPL Or How to (SIM) unlock & Protect Your Device", available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334100
I had some problems, but the biggest one was that I was not clear on the need to install .NET Compact Framework onto my PC and then to my Treo.
To be clear for anyone trying this, the .NET Compact Framework gets installed on the Treo!
So, I did run the Cheetah Unlocker, and ran all three steps. I put in my TMobile SIM, and it worked! I've since gotten Internet and Email working.
So far, so good!
Now, at this point I'm still running Windows 5.0. I would like to upgrade to Windows 6.0, but I'm not sure which version to use? Palm has a version specifically for my Cingular (ATT) phone. Up until 10/31/2008 it was available on the Palm.com site, but now needs to be downloaded from http://mytreo.net/downloads/treo-750-firmware,5114,0.html
So, can I, or should I, use the "official" ATT Windows 6.0?
The instructions for it say: "If you are not a AT&T Treo 750 customer, do not download this version of the software. It contains carrier-specific requirements that are incompatible with non-AT&T Treo 750s"
So, after running the Cheetah Unlocker, do I still have an ATT Treo 750? Or is it something else now?
The Boot loader says this:
CHE100
IPL-0.20
CHEE100
SPL-1.40.Olinex
However, the phone info says:
Software Version: TREO750-1.13-CNG
Firmware Version 1.16.00.00
Unfortunately, I didn't check to see what Firmware I started with, before running Cheetah Unlocker.
So, do I still have a Cingular 750?
Do I use the ATT Windows 6.0 Upgrade?
Thanks!
