Be careful with this and make sure you know what you're doing. In this example we took an Old AMD Instinct Mi25 GPU and flashed to WX9100, because both cards are essentially the same hardware (gfx900) but the WX9100 firmware will enable the miniDP port and also higher power and performance (Mi25 is capped at 110W vs WX9100 170W and of course makes use of the display).
Most guides on the internet for some reason have people using a physical ROMprogrammer, which works but is........
If you get that message it means you have inserted the adapter or device incorrectly. In my case the adapter needed to be at the rear end of the pins and it caused this message.
Do not ignore this message as it may appear to work but you will get errors and in reality your chip will not be erased or programmed even if it appears like it is working.........
I chose this because I heard a lot of stories about scams and that many providers I contacted said they can't unlock the Canadian I717s (one said "my Bell server" is down).
This method worked perfectly on my Bell I717M and should work for all I717 in Canada, I was able to insert a foreign SIMcard. This will work abroad too but remember entering CWM mode is different for I717's in other countries (at least theUS).
Step 1 - Root + CWM........
