Unlocking to accept other carriers' SIM cards is different from unlocking the phone to load a custom ROM. Hard-SPL allows custom ROMs to be loaded on the Imagio.

You may have to turn off the Anti-virus and firewall on your PC when you run the Hard-SPL executable on your PC after connecting your phone to it using ActiveSync. When I had my anti-virus on, the anti-virus would delete the executable on uncompressing the archive. When I tried running the executable after turning off the anti-virus, the firewall prevented it from connecting to the network. I had to turn both off to be able to unlock my phone for custom ROMs.
