Re: Warning to Universal Users !!! Do not upgrade to AKU2 if
"Warning to Universal Users !!! Do not upgrade to AKU2 if you have bootloader v0.56 on your device, DO NOT upgrade to an AKU2 or you will turn it into a paperweight!
To check your bootloader, hold the light key, power key and press the reset button. If it says v1.00 then you don't need to worry. If it says v0.56, you must not upgrade to AKU2. If you do, the only way to fix it is to flash back to a pre-AKU2 rom or upgrade your bootloader to v1.00 (which is currenty not possible publically).
How do I know this? Personal experience and a good friend with a lot of technical know-how."

just to let you know, i've edited the article to expand on what actually happened and how i came to find that out

I have a 0.6 boot loader
Will 0.6 boot loader upgrade to the new rom or not?

I have 0.6 Bootloader and newest Qtek rom works fine.

Me too....3 Unis, all of them hv 0.6 and are running latest O2 ROM...
Once again I reapt..while flashing I hv always put them in Bootloader mode manually first and then flashed...always

sh!t
Great... just ran the update on my XDA Exec (not sure about my bootloader version), after the phone rebooted during the first mins, I got an error msg on the PC.
Now the phone won't power up, not even show any light indications when charger plugged!
Damn!

I have the problem because i have this rom and spent a lot of time to try to flash the new AKU2 rom.
I sent a post HERE
but nobody answer :evil:
And HERE
Have some responses
And now what can I do to uprade my bootloader to 1.00 ?

if you stack on Bootloader, possiblity of recover it by this post.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=254595#254595
if stack on the SPlash Screen, seems to be no solution now.
My Exec also stucked Splash. Bootloader Ver.1.0
My Jasjar Bootloader Ver0.60 is still alive, sometimes stucked on Bootloader after flash ROM, but can escape with the tool on that link

Thank but I don't enderstand, my Universal is working well on old rom but not with AKU2 rom.
Now I have to change the bootloader version ton 1.00
Do you know how ?
Thanks

so, i think,, just think and guess, V0.60 is better than Ver1.0.
Many guys had troubles in V1.0.

what is "light key" ??
I'm a newb, i saw the update for AKU2 ROM...but i dont know how to find out what version I have on my phone...
what is a "light key"

Re: what is "light key" ??
here is another link to 1.01 bootloader
ftp://ftp.clubimate.com/JASJAR_BL1.01_RUU_V1.2.zip
I have not tried it.
HTC sais that you need to upgrade to it from 1.0 if you don't see text "Serial V1.0" on screen after entering bootloader. Though bootloader works fine even without this message.

I can confirm the freezing on bootscren is still there evern after ugradation to 1.01..don't know why...I guess a bad DOC...but if it is a bad DOC then why it accepts the flash?

Hi,

Thanks in advance

You have downloaded AKU 3.5 for WM5, not crossbow, try Helmi's crossbow v1.1 or Jwrightmcps's 2.01.08.

Before upgrading please ensure that you have bootloader version 1.01 or above. also ensure that you are using the original cable and connecting the device directly and not through a hub. Charge your battery fully before upgrading. With these precautions surely your device will not brick.

IV GOT BOOTLOADER 1.00 AND IT WORKED??

hw do we get 2 noe the version of bootloader ? m sry m new .. so dnt noe

Re it working with bootloader 1.00. It does most of the time. 1.01 is more reliable.
To find out which bootloader you have, get into bootloader mode. Read the wiki to find out how: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Universal_Resets
You would do well do read the whole of the wiki - the answers to many questions are in there (including how to upgrade the bootloader). Note that if you have bootloader 2.01, then you have a G4 - don't try changing the bootloader as it's already up to date. If you have 1 or 1.01, don't try going to 2.01 as you will brick your phone.

Vario 2 wm6 downgrade

I have a problem. I've installed the shaps 4.0 version wm6, my radio: 1.50.0.0
extRom: 3.60.20070822. And now i will to downgrade wm6 to my former wm5. It's from T-Mobile and so i downloaded: HER_TMDE_1211113_1050200_GER_SHIP
>ROM< but if I start it, it verifys the information on my HTC and a tri-color display appears. After some time the error comes: your phone isn't connected to the USB and so forth... I don't know what to do, maybe you can help me.
Greeting

I can't use it because i have a warranty. Can you give me the link of ruu wm5 t-mobile GER please?

Not any more you don't if you flashed it with an unofficial ROM!
I hope you HardSPL'd it first...

Here is Mrvanx downgrade guide. Shipped WM5 ROM upgrades can be found in Hermes Wiki (which I can not access now due to some strange error). Your warranty is certainly void when you flash unofficial ROMs (of course if you hand it in for repairs with unofficial ROM installed), if you SuperCIDed your device and so on.... If you are not supercid and you can downgrade both windows and radio you should be ok. Be careful though - downgrading is quite risky.

Ok thanks a lot. One question more: is it normally that i'm unable, i have radio 1.50, to install other radio versions? I already tried to install 1.20 version but without succes.
The problem is that I can only install RUU_... ROMs and Radio, but I don't know why???
Secondly I didn't make SuperCID and HardSPL I only selected if I installed the Shap's ROM, how can I see that I don't have any warranty?

error radio

I've update the radio of my diamond p3700 but i've an error at restart
upgrade rom code error
please try again
how i can resolve it ?
Thx for our patience.

Flash back to another radio.
My guess is that you're trying to install a radio that needs your diamond security unlocked but your diamond isnt security unlocked.
you can verify if it is security unlocked by going into boot loader - if it is security unlocked it will say so on the top of the 3 colour screen.
What radio are you trying to use?

Radio v1.13.25.24 (Blackstone) (SU) (Quad Band)(NEW)

HOW I CAN FLASH BACK ANOTHER RADIO ?

So, you're trying to flash a Blackstone radio to your Diamond
Is there a specific reason for this?
Here is a radio that is newer than the one you are trying to use and should work fine.

Not for me, same problem, how on this earth did you do it???
Never mind, after 6 hours customRUU decided my phone had suffered long enough, oh well, no point going to sleep now, i'm at work in an hour. After 48 hours on the bounce, at least my baby is working again.

[Q] Do i need to update radio to use with Froyo ?

Hi guys,
I've just rooted the AMOLED HTC Desire (Branded, Simlocked, Orange FR) with the following version:
- HBOOT: 0.75
- Radio : 32.30.00.28U_4.05.00.11
- Firmware version : 1.15
So i have few questions:
- Do i need to update radio to use with froyo ?
- Which radio should i use to remove simlock ?
- Is there any combination of radio + hboot would brick my Desire ?
- Any suggestion on cooked froyo i should use ?
Thank you very much

- no you dont need to upgrade your radio to use froyo, just to use the hd video recording
- you cant remove a simlock with a radio lol
- radio and hboot dont interact with eachother so i doubt it
- everyone seems to use leedroid these days, i like nextsence tho both roms are pretty awsome tho

@AndroHero: Thank you for you quick reply. But i seached forum, and found that each version of firmware does required a specific radio version. And my radio is quite obsolete. I doubt that froyo requires a higher radio version.
They also mentioned that if radio and hboot is not compatible with each other, my phone will be bricked.
And i'm afraid of upgrading to froyo will also upgrade radio and hboot which leads to loosing rooting capability.

i have used froyo with the stock radio i got with my desire, only problem was camcorder crashed, i have the same hboot version as you and used every radio under the sun with no problems, if you flash a custom rom, they will not come with a radio or hboot upgrade so dont worri about that

@AndroHero: I do see the newest version of LeeDroid do require new radio and they said i need a unlock code("Orange users may need an unlock code.")
I don't have a unlock code, but i still use an orange simcard. Is it ok ?

no orange users need to buy a sim unlock code to sim unlock your desire before you can flash a new radio, otherwise you will get network locked ( meaning you cant use the network, phone, internet ect ), after you have sim unlocked your desire you can continue to use your orange sim as usuall but you need to sim unlock your phone

@AndroHero: So said . Is there anyway so that i can update to froyo without upgrade radio ? I see most cooked roms need updated radio to work.
Anyway, if i want update radio, is there anyway to backup current radio and restore later ? Nandroid seems not to be eable to do that

there is a thread the top of the development section with all the radio's, just take a note of your radio and then download it again if nessessary like i said before as far as i know (and have tried) froyo will work with the old radio's just some of the functions will crash like camcorder, when the first htc froyo rom was leaked we had no new radio so everyone used it with the ones they had

The latest 2 radio's can be used on Orange without an unlock code.

Thank you guys, i will cross my fingers and do a radio update tonight

Old (4.x) radios are not supported with froyo. It may seem to work, but you will end up with problems, and devs will usually refuse to offer any support if you have an old radio.
Some custom roms will flash the radio as well.

I answered all this on MoDaCo this morning...

I've just updated radio to the newest, but the download speed seems never reach 0.5mbps, uplad is 1.6 mbps.I tried with iphone 4 (with the same sim card),it can reach 4mbps for download and 2mbps upload easily. Any idea ?

lol unlucky..
also i've herd people get past the radio problem by doing the update without the sim card in the phone. and then inserting it in.
they might be talking BS, but it might be fact. best thing to do is unlock the handset anyways

Have you checked your APN settings?

hi,i realized the problem is from the operator. There are 3 access point, and only one of them allows me connecting at max speed. "Orange Internet" is suck. Use "Orange World" instead.

Hi! I am in your same situation. I have a Orange branded Desire. Finally, did you update the radio without need SIM unlock?
Thanks

Yes, I CONFIRM that you can update it without simlock.
