wow. this is a LOT of confused people/questions!!
this is imcokeman's thread as you know, but he really doesn't take much time to support it. since i have kind of started getting known for helping noobs and anyone else i can, i jumped in here and (thankful for the unlocker) helped people. but jeez this is a lot for just one guy!....plus imcokeman knows much more/better than i. so moral of the story: sorry if i dont reply too quick, and sorry if my replies dont quite get you out of your jam.
#1: did those of you who are trying to downgrade read both of the threads to which i referred? dharvey's and....someone elses, cant remember? EDIT: ok here are two threads that could be VERY helpful:

#2: did ALL of you follow EVERY SINGLE LITTLE THING in the directions
TO THE LETTER??
#3: are any of you trying to extract anything out of the unlocker? after downloading the unlocker and you are ready to use it, all you do is
run the exe...you dont extract anything with winrar or anything.
#4: did you guys try reading say the first 3-4 pages of this thread, and then the last/most recent 5 pages? can be REALLY helpful.
#5: if you are trying to unlock, DO NOT TRY TO DO SO FROM THE BOOTLOADER. you can flash roms from the bl, but apparently flashing the unlocker has to be done while booted up to wm; this because the unlocker needs an activesync connection i believe - just the way it was designed.
#6: @bb1980: just to be sure for clarification purposes, you do know that you have to hold the camera button and the power button for a few seconds even after poking the reset hole correct? you hold both buttons, poke the reset hole (while still holding down both buttons completely, dont let a finger slip - happens a lot), continue holding both buttons until the bootloader shows. dont worry about holding the reset down - just poke it and
hold down the camera and power button before and after.
#7: @demathadude: give us more details. what rom/radio/os on pc are you currently running? what have you done to the device previously in terms of flashing/unlocking?
