Avoid or remove device lock on HTC Wizard - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Is it possible (ofcourse everything is possible) to avoid beeing prompted with the device lock and the timer ? Without taking an hardreset and loose all data...no application or tty hacks when connecting in boot mode ?

Start -> Setting -> Lock -> Prompt if device unused for xxx

Device Lock IS allready activated
Yes, I know - but in this case the lock is activated. The owner thought she assigned same PIN as SIM-PIN, but no..so is there a trick - for instance connect K-JAM in Boot mode, run an app from PC and NOP some bytes?

Oh, you mean you are locked out and forgotten the password. No, there are a few similar cases in this forum (do a search), there isn't any way of solving this without hardreset.

Locked out from my trinity!

Hi guys,
2 days ago, I was playing with my trinity, installing some software, and when I restarted my device, it would load my today screen, let me make phone calls/messages, but would not allow me to access the program or the setting folder!
I tried connecting it to my PC, so I could use active sync and eventually flash the whole device (n.b. I could not use "clear storage" since I can not access the settings folder), but active sync will tell me I am connected as a guest and would not allow me to access the device. As a result the flasher returned an error messaging saying that my device did not respond.
I know I can press the power + camera button and enter manually to the tricolour screen, but I have read that doing so and running an executable file from my PC will result to bricking my phone.
I think what I need is to manually flush the rom with the tricolour screen, but i am afraid I do not know how. Can someone help me with this, or maybe suggest a better approach to this problem?
Also note that I am currently using Mary v3.7 LITE.
Thank you in advance

Try to make a hardreset.
Goto Start -> Settings -> System -> Erase Memory (or so)
After this the phone should be unlocked.

Whats happening with Artemis Unlocking Plezzz help.........
you forgot to install the MS KB!so there is a BSOD left to fix...
there is a windows KB update XP-KB926255-x86, which is important for the unlock and that you will have to install it... click here to download(use your language)
Once done (downloaded, installed, PC system reboot) do the following:
1) Remove any micro SD card
2) Put any different SIM (do not put the pin once requested) just let active sync get green once connected to the PC...
3) Install WST
4) from WST click "enable rapi"
5) after (once done) choose "repair IMEI",
6) Writedown your original imei, keep it, (you are going to use it again)
7) change the imei with the one you have on the tutorial (355046015665718)
it will boot your device
8) one active sync is green again run (from your PC) ARTEMIS_Unlock.exe
9) wait
19) it's not blocked, just wait
20) be patient, we're almost there...
21) done, once unlocked it will reboot
22) afterwards your device shall be unlocked, enter your PIN code to verify.
23) change imei back to your original (very important)
24) reboot
Device unlocked

[Q] Stuck Upgrading

hi i am trying to upgrade my Typhoon to 6.1 but i haver got to the point in the upgrading process in which i need to restart and press 0 for the IU the only issue is i do not recive this message and i cannot get any further.
Edit: my SPL is 2.05.0130
you must go to the patched SPL 1.09 for Typhoon befor you go any further.
yes it is true said tobbie, with 1.09 SPL you can flash any rom like WM6.1 or WM6.5 on your Typhoon
for SPL 1:09 Can you get HERE
oh well ive tried poatching the spl before but i just recive errorr 260 or 240 and i cannont make no progress i have tried using a different computer but to no avail
oh well... if the device is still original, then you must follow a sequence of actions to allow such upgrade.
These should be mentioned in any custom rom thread. Essentially you must get the SPL 1.09 on the device then you can load any custom ROM.
1. application unlock the old OS
2. CID unlock the device with lokiwiz toolset
3. load SPL 1.09
4. load custom ROM
good luck!
I belive i have already application unlocked and supercided it with lokiwiz toolset but i have peforemd a hard reset due to that connection issue, would that haver affected it in anyway? thanks
If you are back the old WM2k3 and you cannot upgrade the SPL, then lokiwiz probably has not super-CID your device. To check, connect your device in Bootloader mode to mtty (with AS having USB disabled) and enter "info 1" (no quotes) then try "info 2" (no quotes) and report both results.
Not sure about above myself as I have no device at hand today to check right now.
Hard reset does not affect the CID or SIM Unlock - these are stored in the encrpyted area of the ROM (64kb Block) that is not affected by Hard-Rest or OS-flashing.
sorry for my noobiness but it will not show in mtty i have tried the usb drivers? but the phone does not show in mtty
You must make sure that Active Sync (Windows XP) or Mobile Device Center is not using the USB port to connect the device. You can disable the use in Active Sync selecting the "Connections" menu and then disabling there.
Reconnect the device and restart mtty. The USB button will be there only if the USB connection is accessible and the device is connected to the USB port.
sorry for the bump but ive came back to my phone and i am having so my trouble superCIDin the phone i have done everything by the book, ive hard reset the phone and tried everything again and now SDA unclokder says "phone is not unlockable" and the lokiwiz.bat will not super cid it.
Look at mediafire in my kitchen folder here:
http://www.mediafire.com/?3tt15dyp4mbuu
the "...one time per device" ZIP has all tools inside. There is another (on board application unlock) that will do the trick. It installs a tool on the device, execute it there first and then start SDA Unlock. No need to reboot as the changed security policies are active immediately.
i downloaded your kitchen and i ran the htcunlock the the sda unlocker still says the phone is unlockable
So these Orange devices are quite resistant to application unlock. Did you notice that the HTC Unlocker kind of "remote controls" a registry editor? It may be that the changes did not really go through.
It is quite complicated and a lot of trial and error what you will have to do and I cannot advise in detail as I have no such device.
Key is that the application that changes the policy on the device is permitted to do so. Usually as well SDA Unlocker (remotely via the RAPI Policy) or the signed Registry editor controlled via HTC Unlocker can do that. It all goes to the registry keys in HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies where the relevant policy IDs have to assigned the right values (role permissions). You can use the free CE-Command (from ghisler.com) which has a registry tool built in or the same registry editor that HTC Unlcok controls to check if the values that the tools try to write are really written or not. I suspect they are simply NOT written. If you cannot find a tool that can change the policy, then there is another way around this:
The Gold Card method. Get the trial version of "revskills" from www.revskills.com and create a gold card with the device for the "Typhoon". With this card in the device, the SPL will allow ANY (also non Orange) signed ROM to be loaded. Use any non Orange shipped ROM for the Typhoon and load it to the device. This OS should allow to change the application lock and also allow the further steps.
Mind that ROMs for the Feeler or Amadeus have different key-handling (especially for the joystick) - so best you get also a Typhoon ROM for that exercise.
I think in the Tornado Forum was once a description how to unlock a Cingular 2125, possibly similar actions may allow you the first step. Not sure here though.
thanks for your help i beelive that your tool changes the registrey values correctly im nnot sure about this i have tried running it a few times but with the same results
Just to reassure that: Your device is not CID unlocked yet after all the trials you did? What does the SPL tell when you enter "info 2" in mtty connected?
Do you know how to work with a PC registry editor and to connect with the device? There are several that can do that, e.g. "Registry Workshop" or "Smartione" or "CE Regeditor". All these can connect to the device via Active Sync and read out the HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies branch.
Could you just post the export of that branch here?
You can also do that on board the device with CECmd, get into virtual two window mode, on one side go to the branch above (exactly, on top of the second "\Policies"), on the other in any file-directory, can also be root. Then on the registry side press "5" for copy and confirm to copy the "\Policies" branch to the other side. You get a text file called "policies.reg" - attach or post it here.
Finally you could search for the Microsoft tool "security configuration manager". This allows to select the security model "Security off" - once applied to the device the lokiwiz should run with success.
