Guest jenya Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 I am following the procedure.. I was able to do a backup of my Unlocked ATT phone, but when I try with Cingular locked phone. Here is what I get in Tera Term: r2sd all ***** user area size = 0xF140000 Bytes R2SDBackup() - Download type = 6 usTotalBlock = 1 sizeof(SDCARD_SIGNATRUE_TABLE)=512 Load Binary NORMAL partition: data from DiskOnChip to RAM Start to read bianry partition. Read binary partition successfully. Load Binary NORMAL partition: data from DiskOnChip to RAM Start to read bianry partition. Read binary partition successfully.

Guest DarkJedi Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 well i'm sure it would need to be unlocked, but that's my guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HKBoySiR Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 Sim Unlocking the phone removed that error for me. I'm working on the ROM backup now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest unraaack Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 I have a question...How did you get your phone to stay on manual network selection? I know there is a registry hack, but what is it? thanks a bunch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gbradberry Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 I'm OK with SIM unlocking my wife's Cingular phone, but she'll kill me if she gets that d**n triangle. Will a hard reset lock the phone again? Thereby getting rid of any triangle, etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DarkJedi Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 hard resetting the phone wont relock the phone, i've done it plenty of times before ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest gbradberry Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 Is there a way to reset the SIM lock after unlocking it? I mean, can you relock the phone some way? I know its a crazy question, but it would have its uses. I just want to cover my bases before unlocking my wife's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DarkJedi Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 i always have my phone on manual network selection, it works fine for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest gbradberry Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 apparently in Salt Lake City, unlocked 5600's will not work with Cingular's GPRS internet. I have talked to several people who have them, and none of them work. It has something to do with there being no Cingular towers, only old ATT ones that have been changed over or something. So, after unlocking my wife's phone and placing the Cingular ROM on mine, I would like to SIM lock them to Cingular to be safe. Better safe than sorry. Is it possible?

Guest DarkJedi Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 i've never heard of re-locking a phone after it's been unlocked. however i wouldn't see a problem as the phone is cingular, and the sim is cingular. the only issue would be if the phone is a different carrier, and the sim is different as well. just like u get the triange on the AT&T phone with a cingular sim.

Guest unraaack Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 Again, I am sorry to put this here, but I still can't start a new thread. Does anyone know the registry hack to let me be able to keep my manual network selection. What happens is that I can go to my settings and select my network, but after about 6 minutes, even where I have perfect reception with that one network, it goes back to the one it usually stays on.

Guest Cylon Posted June 2, 2005 Report Share Posted June 2, 2005 (edited) i guess the mormo's are against cingular!!! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> My unlocked (formerly ATT) SMT5600 w/Cingular sim works fine in the Salt Lake / Ogden area. I have the roaming icon, but I can get on the internet. I think it is using WAP vs GPRS (not knowledgeable enough to know). I would still like a cingular ROM to get rid of the triangle and make Cingular the default carrier. I must, however, maintain the ability to take this phone overseas with me. Honestly, what I would really like is the default Audivox ROM that has no branding or proprietary "add ons."

Guest gbradberry Posted June 2, 2005 Report Share Posted June 2, 2005 OK, I have success!!!! At least partially. I copied the Cingular ROM from my wife's phone after unlocking it. No ill effects whatsoever. I then managed to flash the Cingular ROM to my unlocked ATT 5600. Works great, and NO TRIANGLE!!!! I still can't access the internet however!!!!! Oh well, I'll take that up with Cingular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
