Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

you cant upgrade the radio without having the sim unlocked, which you have to pay for, so you wouldnt do it unless you had a reason to. So no, theres no reason for you to upgrade unless you plan to use gsm towers.

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

OK so i am a MORON. Flashed without unlocking, now have my tp2 stuck in bootloader. Any suggestions guys?

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

Re-flashing a stock radio should get you back up and running, anybody have an answer to my post from yesterday?

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

Remove battery, replace battery, let it boot up. It should boot to your previous rom. Then do necc. steps to load rom ie 'unlock'.

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

I answered my own question, by taking the leap and purchasing the unlock software from olipro. Went through the unlock process, and flashed to 2.2300WU just fine. Will test new radio for the problems other people are raising, but I have a feeling everything will be working just fine.

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

I think I got my question(s) answered by reading. So if want to use GSM networks, I need to have my SIM card activated before using that unlocker, right?

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

Yo ease up man. Some of these might be noob questions to you, but you were a noob once too, regardless if you posted questions in the beginning or not. Good contribution on the radio though....

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

I am on VZW, but all I do is go into my Verizon Wireless data connection settings, and
1. Add a new modem
2. Name = MediaNet
3. Select modem = Cellular Line GPRS/3G
4. Access Point Name = wap.cingular

Press next and finish, no username or password. Should default to auto-select modem.

FYI - #777 is the VZW modem connection.

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

Hi all,
I have a question, can I use RhodiumW 2.23.00WU for my Sprint TP2 or is it just for Verizon? Thanks for your insights

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

You can use it on your Sprint TP2. I have it on mine. It's awesome!

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

2.23 seems to get me better battery life. Anybody else?

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

Thank you very much bro for sharing.

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

2.23 would get very sluggish every couple of hours & had to reboot the phone, but battery life was the same for me.

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

1. like Olipro said, the phone defaults to CDMA
2. if you are on a CDMA call, the phone is on a CDMA network, and NOT on a GSM network, therefore if you get a call on your GSM number, that call will go straight to voicemail
3. the Sprint SIM is for international "Sprint GSM" towers, it does nothing in the USA.

hope that helps....

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

didn't have a problem with the 1.96.00, but flashed the 1.96.10wu anyways. good job olipro, no more switching to manual! it works on automatic.

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

When running the 2.23.00WU.exe updater, fails at 100% with Error [290]: Invalid Command the update utility cannot be used for your PDA phone.

Won't get past the SPL-1.00 boot loader. Was able to re-flash using the Verizon MR1/ 6.5 update and now have the latest VZW radio.

Phone was originally unlocked using the RhodiumW Unlocker and then updated the radio using the Verizon MR1/ 6.5 update, so it was already at the latest Verizon radio before applying the 2.23.00WU.exe updater. Been having issues with the phone locking since applying the MR1 (radio) update and using Energy ROM's. Thought I'd try Olipro's radio update to see if it helps.

Any ideas on the above error?

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

Purchase Olipro's SIM/CID security unlocker, run unlocker, flash to new WU radio.

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

I originally used Olipro's SIM/CID to unlock the phone. So the phone was unlocked when the error occurred.

Wasn't sure if applying the Verizon MR1 update caused problems, so I re-ran Olipro's unlocker to reflash their original unlocked radio rom (2.05??). Then tried running 2.23.00WU.exe again with the same error at 100% and the phone get's stuck at the boot loader. Was able to get the phone past the boot loader by re-flashing the MR1 rom and then re-flashing a Energy ROM.

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

In the rainbow bootloader screen, what does the text at the very top bar say during the error?

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

You need to be on stock ROM for it to work!

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG, IGNORE THE ABOVE MORON.

the ROM is irrelevant, you must be SECURITY UNLOCKED.

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

how can you tell if your security unlocked I bought it did the hole thing downloaded the radio and still stuck in boot loader mode? how do you get out of it or did brick my phone? I have taken the battery in and out many time and still stuck in bootloader. I must have did something wrong when i unlock i must have not did something right at the end..

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

run the rlocker, it'll boot back up.

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

that worked awsome thanks

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

ok i bought the unlocker went threw the process clicked the 2 tops boxes on the last step. I have the other radio on my phone but every time I try and download this radio it stays locked up in bootloader mode and have to use the relocker any ideas I have 2.05.00wvradio... I am using david morley roms

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

don't use the 2.05. use the 2.23.

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

thats what I have now it came with the unlocker I am trying to get the other one unless I got a bad download.. Is there any way to tell if I am truly unlocked..

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

what does your radio say now? if it has "wu", it's unlocked.

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

I have a VZW phone. had it SIM unlocked by using the unlock code.
Do i still need to follow any additional steps before i can flash the 2.23.00WU radio?
Should i even bother with the newer radio? since the device will be used in India.

my current radio version is 2.23.00WV

Thanks

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

I just ran the unlocker again and it said it was successfully unlock so I checked my radio and again it says 2.05.00wv... I give up or I got tooken for 25dollars

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

if there is a "wv" or "wf", you are not unlocked. it should say "wu". if you're not unlocked but paid, run the steps again. make sure after each step to check wmdc or activesync for a connection.

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

thanks I will try again...do i have to have the original sprint sim card in or does it matter if i dont have a sim card in it when i try to unlock it...

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

I will have to try something else went threw the hole dang process again and still get the same radio version WV.... this sucks hard lesson to learn

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

you need to have the already activated sim card in, also putting the phone in gsm mode before unlocking.

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

absolutely incorrect. I just did it with the MR X Rom installed. You just have to make sure that you have your sim card installed, Make sure that you are set on GSM Mode, and run it. It runs fine. Only part I am unsure of, is whether or not you HAVE to flash a radio afterwards. I did, After all was said and done, I ran the 2.23.00 Radio exe and put that WU radio on my phone. once I rebooted, it tuned right in to the TMobile signal and worked right away.

However, I noticed on a side note, that when you reboot the phone now, it doesn't show the ROM, RADIO, status, like it used to when the TouchPro 2 screen is up. But, It works, so I figure, if it aint broke, don't fix it. Just kinda curious why that went away.

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

Yea i flashed a both radios on two different tp2's which is posted at the beginning of this thread after unlocking and it worked well ...

I can even confirm 3G Service and i got the pic to prove it :D...

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

I can see the Olipro boot loader and then the grey screen for flashing, then boot loader again where it hung. Looks like after the error, it was stuck going into the RUU loader to reflash the radio and hangs.

The radio was previously HSPL and security unlocked and have been flashing other Radios and ROM's. Also, was using my AT&T SIM.

Before the error the Verizon TP2 was reflashed with the Verizon MR1 update to get the Verizon 2.23 radio. Then reflashed with the latest Energy ROM. Had many problems with the phone locking and thought I'd try Olipro's 2.23 update over the Verizon official MR1 applied 2.23 update

Prior to the Verizon MR1 update I had the USC 2.05 from Olipro's radio unlocker and used various ROMs.

Was able to flash a different USC radio version to the Radio to get the phone past the boot loader hang.

Then I re-applied the HSPL and original sercurity unlocker. Then was able to sucessfully re-run Olipro's 2.23 radio update. TP2 is now working with Olipro's 2.23 update and the latest Energy ROM.

Regarding the update error and the boot loader hang, I'm thinking the Verizon MR1 radio update was causing issues with Olipro's update and the custom ROM's I was using.

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

when you are flashing a new rom or radio, if you look at the bootloader screen, at the very top of that screen you will see the words "SECURITY UNLOCKED." that's how you tell if you are security unlocked.

you must donate, download, and run "RhodiumWUnlocker.exe" and make sure you check the checkbox that says "Security Unlock" when you unlock the SIM.

Re: RhodiumW 2.23.00WU/1.96.10WU Radio Unlocked for US Networks
 

Wow, thought we were here to help people not beat them up when they make mistakes. Oh I forgot you guys are freakin perfect right. hmmph. I retract my previous post. My interpretation of the person asking the question was reguarding unlocking the phone. You guys need to lighten up a bit. Go get laid or something. Wow.
