ROM Update Country Error ID Code 120 - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

I have an HTC/UTStarcomm Apache 6700 from Qwest. I called Qwest regarding the recent ROM Update of which they instructed me to download and and apply the Sprint Rom Upgrade. When attempting to upgrade I recieve Country Error ID Code 120. Previously I owned a Siemens SX66 and there was a utility available that allowed me to bypass this issue and update with various available ROMs. Is there anything currently available?
Thank you in advance.

SX-56 AT&T service provider, Unlock question

I have an SX-56 on ATT service that I want to unlock so a friend of mine can use it on T-mobile USA. I upgraded the Windows OS to 2003 summer 2004 when Siemens was offering it on thier website.
I called ATT (now cingular) and they said they will not provide me with the unlock code and to call Siemens for the code. I called tech support at Siemens and they say call carrier (ATT). go figure. They got me with the 2year contract and a sim card id, whats the big deal about giving me the unlock code........
Anyway, found this website and the xdatools. went to the wallaby prompts and when I get to the ROM version the one I have is not listed, so I follow the prompts to the unlisted one and that leads me to the special ROM edition. Okay, that all being said.......I read where it says that the 3.17 ROM is for the PPC2002 version. Does this mean that it will not work with the OS2003 that I have currently installed and if not how do I reload the original PPC2002 that came on the unit new. I am new to all this but am learning so please be merciful if I have mis-stated some things here.
Will I need the ATT sim card in the phone to do all this?
What is the best way to go about unlocking the phone.
the ROM version is: A.30.09 ENG ROM date 01/01/04
the Radio version is: A.33.02
Protocol version: 1.3.3
Any help is much appreciated.
I'm new enough to be dangerous........
No hope for unlock Siemens SX-56 AT&T?
Da** it, you and I are in the same boat with AT&T & Siemens flip-flop game!
My phone is exactly as yours, but I didn't upgrade to 2003. When I do the same way to attempt to get it unlock by XDAtools and pick the T-moblie ROM version like you did, I recieved the message:" the ROM image that you are trying to upgrade is not compatible to your pocket PC. Your device infomation: ROM A.30. Your Upgrade info.: ROM 3.17. Please download the compatible ultility and try agian" And I couldn't find our compatible unlock A.30 version anywhere, either! I also did try the special_rom_1.2 and XDAUnlock, but no darn better news!!!!!!!!! I got the same error message for special_rom_1.2 and got "error getting unlock code" for XDAUnlock.exe.
Pls note: I still have the AT&T SIM card installed in SIM slot.
Any Siemens SX-56 unlock "guru" please help us out.

Can I install a generic ROM to my Vodafone phone?

Hi guys
I'm wondering if I can install the generic European ROM here: http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=250&cat=2&dl_id=629
I didn't think I could, but it does say "This is a generic software update. Any additional software or settings provided by your mobile operator or company will be lost. If you require this customization, please contact your supplier first before upgrading." which implies that it might work.
I've seen methods with hotfixes which enable installation of the upgrade even if the ROM version is incorrect. Does anything like that work with this?
One issue is that my ROM version is 1.14.161.5 which doesn't seem to match any of the 1.19 ROMs that everyone else seems to have.
If I have to wait for an operator specific version, then where will I download that from once it's available? I've not seen anywhere on vodafone.co.uk that lists phone updates to be downloaded.
Thanks in advance
I tried but htc would not let me pass serial number page saying it wont suite my phone
INstall HSPL from the ROMs section and you should be ok

Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device. WHAT?!

I went to the htc support website and tried to download the official 6.5 rom.
After i inserted the SN it says that this update is not suitable for my device.
How is that possible?!?!
I have the EU GSM Version.
PS: Can someone point me to a link where i can download the official 6.5 Rom upgrade?
Thanks.

Have you tried the official post in Rhodium development section? they're same like in the htc official website.
I finally downloaded the 6.5 official update but it says its not a good vendor or something when i try to install it. I guess its not made for my region/country.
Oh well...
Hi, I faced the same problem on HTC official website. What did you do?
Thanks,
I found a good SN on a website so i could download it, but you wont be able to flash your phone to the rom because its not suitable for your device, meaning in EU only Western Europe has an update. Eastern Europe still doesn't have an update to 6.5.
I bought a HTC Touch Pro 2 in Malaysia
I went to the HTC South East Asia site but when i enter the S/N it gives me this error
"Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device."
http://www.htc.com/sea/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=736&news_id=318
Have anyone found a way around this ?
Also had this issue with a UK Orange branded TP2
I mailed HTC and got this reply;
You recently wrote us about an issue that you have encountered with your device.
To clarify your issue, you stated that you have not been able to download an update from our website.
If your device is network branded or locked your network has restricted your access to our downloads. If you wish to download an upgrade to your device you will need to contact your network. They may have customised updates available on their website.
Another possibility is that you have been trying to download a version which is not suitable for your region (as example an Eastern European ROM for a Western European device) which is not possible.
So looks like its Orange that's at fault in my case. I contacted Orange and kicked up a stink as they advertised the phone with the feature of being able to update to wm6.5. They told me that they are working on it and it should be available soon...... :/
When they get it sorted they say it'll be here;

Anyone else got it sorted on Orange already tho?

I had this issue too on the SEA Website.

The branded phones need to make their own updates. Thats HTC's rule.
Some mobile operators might release updates, some might not.
Yip...had the same problem today. I brought my TP2 from NZ 3 months ago and wasnt locked to any one provider there.
Now back in Indonesia I've tried getting the 6.5 Rom upgrade on both HTC's euro website and Asia/Pacific website and have come up with the same message....bummer.
I hope it gets sorted cos I was told by the vendor that it was upgradable....

Which is the latest Bada2.0 firmware for Wave 723 (non-branded German)?

Hi there,
a while ago I installed a Bada2.0 firmware manually on our non-branded Wave723 which worked fine. Now I wanted to obtain the lifelong license for Route66 on that mobile but had to accept that the navigation app contained in the firmware I installed is not the correct version - hence it doesn't work.
From Samsung support I got the information that latest firmware version is S723EXXLG1. I already searched for it but only got a custom ROM version and another one where I do not know whether the German country code is also contained. Updating via Kies does not work (it claims latest firmware is already installed - seems to be contradictory to what Samsung support says).
Maybe someone here can tell me where I can get the latest Bada2.0 firmware for Wave723 (non-branded) from containing German country code?
Many thanks in advance!

Unlock ATT Note10+ 5G update outside USA (SM-N976U)

Hello,
I am new to the unlocking stuff.
I just bought a used ATT Note10+ 5G in Malaysia, model SM-N976U
However the security patch was stuck in May 2020. It could not be updated over the internet or Smart Switch PC.
It says it is the latest s/w (the latest should be July 2020)
I checked Sammobile and discovered 2 firmware updates : USA(TMK) and USA (T-mobile)(TMB)
(tried to include sammobile link here but was disallowed due to new user status)
Which firmware is suitable for my phone?
Is there a way to unlock ATT and receive the normal monthly security update over the internet automatically?
(i saw Odin in youtube and have basic idea how to flash it)
Appreciate any advice. Thank you

A thread already exists with the answers to your questions.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-10+/how-to/att-note-10-5g-n976u-firmware-files-t4059721
No unbranded firmware version exists as of yet.. so you will have to flash a carrier specific firmware.

Thank for for the link provided.
Based on the link information, i can download the 4 base files from sammobile (either TMK or TMB) and add USERDATA ATT N976USQS3BTF4 to flash it.
Is that correct?
I could find USERDATA ATT N976USQS3BTF4 in easy-firmware website with a purchase fee.

Hi SCitta,
Fellow Malaysian having the same problem as you. But my problem now is that I have Odin and the latest firmware (XAA) but Odin is showing failed to establish connection. How did you do it with yours?
Am using the AT&T version of the Note 10+.

Never experienced the failed connection before.
Have you installed the SAMSUNG-drivers ? The Samsung Smart Switch PC installation might help to fix the drivers.

Just want to share my experience in this. Bought an ATT N976U from the US and using in Malaysia. Phone came with XAA/XAA/ATT and never received OTA updates.
Downloaded Google phone app and changed CSC to TMB/TMB/ATT using *#*#27262826#*#*
Voila. Received the OTA updates one by one since May2020. Am now on N976USQU5EUC2.
Volte is also working on Celcom.
Did not have to flash firmware. Data not wiped. Everything seemed to be working normal apart from "Tips and Help" in settings crashes every time I click it. Also phone boots with T-Mobile logo now.
