hard spl commercial
 
Ok so I have already unlocked one phone with the hard spl which was back when the hard spl first came out. however, that phone got screwed so i am sending it back to Verizon and they sent me a new one. i just flashed the stock rom and relocked the phone i am sending back. now im trying to unlock the new phone i got but i get an fatal error telling me that it is not for commercial use and that i have already used the unlocker once before and i need to contact some email. what the hell is up with that. first of all how the hell does it know i have used the hard spl before and what the hell difference does it make. it is a completely different phone and i tried it on 2 different computers. please some one help i need the phone unlocked and flashed with a new rom before i go on a trip in 2 days.

Hey man , if you read the forums you would know that the unlocker is only good for one flash. You will have to to buy the second one from cmonex. She has to get something for all her work. You don't work for free do you?
Doubt if you will reach her before your trip , good luck man.

I believe how she does it is via your IP. So if when you get that error, you follow the onscreen instructions to donate, it should allow you to run the unlocker immediately after you donate.

At least it did for me.

i look at it this way...

shes giving everyone a freebie
then if you need it again, she still doesent charge a set price for it, she just asks that you give what you can.

i think thats more than fair.

I believe you are correct.

There is a catch 22 here as two methods are used to record what device used the unlocker: When you first unlock your phone, the phones IMEI is recorded in the database along with your IP address. Any further attempts from the same IP address or the same phone on another IP address will deny the flash, including on devices that have never been unlocked before. So once I had unlocked my phone my IMEI and IP was recorded. When my friend wanted his phone unlocked and gave it to me to do, the instant I connected the usb and ran the unlocker it tagged his phones IMEI with my IP and denied the unlock. If we would have originally done his unlock on his computer, then it would have worked perfectly.

One thing we did learn from this lesson though is if you try to unlock the phone once denied using the web form directly on the site, it will not work as it will not accept your full IMEI id number. You will have to try to unlock using the unlocker, be denied and then click on the link that pops up as this will automatically put the IMEI in the form.

This happened to a friend of mine and he had to pay regardless, which he was more than willing to do so. Besides, even though most got theirs for free, I would think that most donated to her cause. I know I did, best money ever spent.

Well I tried it with a completely different phone on a network that I had in fact downloaded the unlocker from once before. Then I tried it from a different computer but still on the same network. Then I tried it on what I think was a computer and network that I had not used before but still nothing. Then I just clicked yes to donate, gave my $5, and it worked fine. So it looks like all you have to do is donate $5 and it will work, or have a phone that has never been used before with the unlocker and make sure to use the unlocker on a computer and a network that has also not been used before. My question is once you donate can you use the unlocker multiply times or do you have to donate each time?

She states on the htc-unlocks site that an addition one can be given for free if it is for a replacement phone. you just have to request it.

I'm almost positive once you do that $5 thing your good to go forever. I did it right up front and have unlocked 3 times so far. So that's it, you only had to pay that once and should be all set from now on...

Not 100% positive though. But i think when we donated it gave a commerical license type thing that said we could use multiple times.
