htc prophet issue after downgrading step 1 / remove cid to upgrade rom - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

i urgently need your help with my htc prophet after I haven't found an answer in the portal already:
as my prophet (seller is vodafone) showed the vender issue when trying to upgrade i used the downgrade and unlock cid program i found here on the page. after step one, using the downgrade command my device no gets hung while start up, I can see the ipl/spl window, that's all. nothing will happen even after waiting an hour or trying to hard reset the device again. the os listed now is 1.0.13.21
my problem is that due this active sync doesn't recognize the device anymore, i cannot connect to it and as of this i cannot go on with installation...
need more info? please let me know!

Do Not flash your Artemis with a different carrier/cooked Rom without cid unlocking

Noobs beware!
As a number have been flashing their devices with various roms not from their own carrier or country or cooked roms and bricking their device - I put up this sticky. Your device must be cid unlocked first before you do this. This applies to the coming wm6 roms to - if the rom is not specific to your device - i.e. if you try to flash the upcoming htc 3300 wm6 rom on O2 orbit - you must cid unlock first - with imei check or you will end up with a BRICK!
This does not apply if you are only updating the os http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299154 or radio.
cid = country id i.e. locked to that country/language/vendor
cid unlock for the artemis is here with USPL http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403 (thanks pof)
or here http://www.imei-check.com/c3unlock.php (costs though)
Bricked devices
If you have flashed your device and not cid unlocked it, your device maybe salvagable if you can get it into bootloader mode.
Hold down the voice speed dial button and soft reset - you should then enter bootloader mode 'multicolored' screen'
If you do, attach device to pc via usb cable (a small usb will appear bottom left of screen) and flash factory rom. (run rom executable or RUU updater from pc) You do not need to be activesynced to do this.

Before you flash again with a non-factory rom, your device MUST be cid unlocked.
If you cannot enter bootloader mode your bootloader has been damaged and your device will need to be sent away for repair.
Hi Folks,
Firstly many thanks for everyone's freely given time! Great Forum!
There seems to be a lot of confusion about who and what can be flashed with the German official ROM and then with Bepe's creation.
Can we try to clear some of the ambiguity for us simple folk? Might stop some of the repeated questions littering threads in both related artemis sections.
So, many thanks to anyone who can clarify the situation by providing definitive answers to the following questions!
(1) Can an 02 Orbit from, say, the UK or Holland be flashed with either the German and/or Bepe's ROM, even if it is CID Locked (i.e. same devcie and carrier, different country).
(2) Can a non-Orbit O2 device be flashed with either the German or bepe's ROM, even if it is CID Locked (i.e. different devcie but same carrier).
(3) Is there a fall back Rom available for non-German O2 Orbits should the upgrade fail?
Again, many thanks for your time.
Cheers - Adam.

any help anyone ?
By what i read "wrong vendor" means CID locked right ? but what EXACTLY is CID locked definition ?? i CAN put any sim card inside my HTC P-3300, whether from SFR operator (france) or Proximus (belgium) one... so why do i have this wrong vendor when trying to upgrade to WM6 german rom ?
Take a look to this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=299154 I tried it, and now I have wm6 on my HTC P3300, it's true that you can't have upgrades to radio or extrom, but meanwhile I can use wm6

cid = country id i.e. locked to that country/language/vendor thats why cid needs unlocking before flashing diff any of aboves roms.
imei checker
is it just me or is any one on this forum a bit sceptical of a merchant who so brazenly operates their business under the assumption that all potential customers are all fraudsters/criminal scum? is there no - more customer friendly- merchant who can perform this much valued service?
my first serious post!

My HTC has no vendor since I can use all SIMs from different vendors, now I upgraded from HTC Spanish version to HTC WWE version, so Vendor and Language (plus location?) locks are disabled?

Hello,
I would like to Upgrade my O2 XDA Mini S with Windows Mobile 6 (localized / German version). I hardly searched for such a WM6 Upgrade but there seems to be no final version for my device and german language.
I figured out that there is an WM6 OS Upgrade for the XDA Orbit and XDA Trion (coming soon). Might it be possible to flash only an OS-ROM for WM6 extracted from one of these O2 ROM updates? I was able to extract the OS-Image and I already backed up my current ROM using aWizard. aWizard also supports flashing a single OS-ROM only.
Some people in this forum already said I might brick my device. Is it possible or not to flash the OS ROM? Is it risky to give it a try?
Do you know a final working German Upgrade for the XDA Mini S (Qtek 9100)?
Best Regards
Gabriel
Hello
I am in Bootloader mode right now and I started the updater but it says it can't connect. I see the device in Windows and my Artemis says it sees a USB connection (it says "USB" on the bottom of the screen in the white stripe).
What do I have to do for it to start working for a change?
I think I found the problem: First, it would be wise to close mtty . Then it is important to reboot and after entering Bootloader mode to connect USB not while booting. After trying it a dozen times it suddenly worked.
Please, could someone explain how I can unlock the CID with USPL? It starts the batch, when it's done I have a black screen with the Linux penguin and it says loaded. When the RUU tries to connect, though, the device doesn't respond. So I take it the process doesn't actually get finished...
I think this sticky has become useless, there is a reasonably fool-proof way to flash CID locked devices these days
Hi I Try To Flash My Htc P3300 (bricked) With Factory Roms And Negative Result The Process Stop At 2%.
Can Anybody Help ?
Just to inform you guys that i tried the USPL Method 3 times and always got an error message UPDATE ERROR (i think it was error number 270 ??).
Well, that was because after the DOS mode went until 100, and the dialog box for the ROM Update Utility appeared, this dialog box ask to wait for the PDA to be activesynced before presing the "UPDATE", so i was waiting for the PDA to reconnect to activesync (while in a black screen mode) before pressing update . THAT was the mistake. Don't wait for it to RE connect to activesync (strange right ?) and just press the NEXT and UPDATE without waiting anything.
THEN it worked i just upgrade to WM6 without VENDOR ID error anymore thanks to the USPL method
just got a dopod m700 for my wife i know it is a g4 ppc hence will this zip file work on it to get the cid unlocked or do i have to follow a similiar procedure as i had to for my wizard
sorry i got my answer
please ignore my earlier question

****ed up my artemis with this rom by upgrading stucks in loading mode WM6 screen. Can access bootloader but it always tell me upgrading again that i have the wrong rru....
CAN ANYBODY PLEASE UPLODE THE ORIGINAL WM5 ROM in GERMAN by htc for Artemis
(NOT Orbit oder MDAIII)
OR where can i get the original rom to downgrade????
Please help
thanks
Last night I flash my Dopod M700 to WM6 but after reboot it only enter to the boot flash screen showing IPL SPL 1.11 OS 3.7 etc......
I did unlock the CID but the flashing of WM6 seems not ok.
Then I enter to the bootloader mood and flash the WWE WM5.0 of HTC M700 rom. It did turn the M700 back to WM5.0 and then I flash it with WM 6.0 again.
However, I forgot to unlock CID again before flashing. Then now the device stuck in the boot screen with SPL 1.28 OS 3.7 etc......
I still can enter to bootloader mood, but I have tried to heal the device by flashing it with the WWE WM 5.0 rom of HTC M700 again. But it cannot be flashed again!!!! Error message came out that the rom is not for my device!!
Help!!!!!!!!!
Is the wm5 wwe rom the factory rom for your device or are you from another country?

trying to unbrand my HTC S621 please help

I SIM unlocked and CID unlocked from http://www.imei-check.com/dashunlock.php, downloaded the Bootloader update, and the HTC shipping ROM from Rapidshare, ran the bootloader update, all is well the phone goes into bootloading screen. But it would then tell me the phone is not connected via USB. ActiveSync is on prior to all this and well connected. Would it matter if I was on Windows Vista? It should still work shouldn't it?
Yup, plugged it into my buddy's XP setup and all is well. The HTC executables have some bug preventing it to finish the flash I guess.
No ... it is NOT HTC's problem ... it is VISTA's and MS crap that's preventing the user ...etc
see this thread:

Wow thanks! I was hoping not to find a WinXP machine everytime I needed to flash my ROM.

WM6 upgrades - Various error

Hi all, have floated around the forum for a definitive but not really got my question answered, so here goes....
I have several V1605 Vodafone Hermes/Tytn devices in our organisation that i would like to upgrade to WM6, as the Voda default rom is appalling.
I have upgraded 2 or 3 to Black Majik etc, but i want to upgrade the rest from the default voda to HTC official, however i get the following:
A, INvalid vendor ID on one device
B, Connection error on another
In A, is there a custom ruu package with a non vendor specific ID, although i dont see why.
B, Flumoxed, goes to Bootloader flix on and on, even for a split second shows the grey screen and a progress bar, then Connection error.
Err, anyone got any clues?
TIA

For the A question, in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1410956&postcount=82 you can find WWE version with CustomRRU. Take care to have the last HardSPL before flash. You can flash the Radio ROM in second stage. If you want other languaje, in the thread you can find more if you take time to read it
For the B question, can be an USB issue (cable or USB port on the PC). Try on other PC and other cable.
Various errors - part 2
Thanks for A, however B, i have tried on several different machines still the same error, its weird and i have never seen one like this before....
Thanks

Try to use a XP box instead a Vista one, and select SSPL to install HardSPL. This must work.
no
It doesnt, however if failed, but my spl is now 2.03
both custom ruu and official rom fail on error 260
Hi,
If these are Vodafone devices are they unlocked? If they are still locked then you will have to unlock them first then install Hard SPL 2.10 Olipro before attempting what you want to do.
Have a look in the wiki; its all in there. Feel free to come back if you need more help.
Good luck.

....that was my next question....
So i unlock them first?
~clearly i do.....
~Will give it a go...
one done...
one of them is now unlocked and upgraded...Thanks.
The other has an ipl of 1.00 and an spl 2.03
can this be unlocked with the unlock tool and then upgraded or do i downgrade the spl?
Thanks all....

Follow my guide and use method 3. This will flash back a factory ROM, Dopod or whatever.

If you "Goldcard" or SuperCID the phone, you can flash ANY factory signed ROM, even the Dopod ROM. I did the same to my phone when I bricked it. Follow the steps closely and copy the RUU_Signed.nbh to the "Goldcard" as CACAIMG.nbh, insert the SD card, turn on the phone and enter bootloader.
hello again..
on the second stage you described:
"You will need a working Donor HTC device with a microSD slot and a microSD card that is smaller than 1GB (will be formatted) to create "goldcard" image using QMAT tools as described below "
maybe the problem is that i don't have a working htc donor device with the original software? the donor htc i have has cooked rom.. do i have to "goldcard" on an original software if the bricked htc isn't super cid?
cause i tried it again exactly as you say but i don't understand whats the problem..

It doesn't matter what OS, software, or device you use. As long as it's Windows Mobile. Cooked, factory, smoked, modded, doesn't matter. The point is to write the Goldcard image to the SD card. Thats all. nothing else matters.
ok.. i'll try again tomorrow and see if it works..
thanks for your patience..

i have tried to upgrade, i find some update rom overhere and followed the
instructions, direct during upgrade the device comes up in bootloader screen
en got stuck, i have tried everything even reset e.t. still i cannot get out
of the boatloader screen, i have tried an wm6 rom but i gaot the message
checking the information on your device and nothing is happend anymore
still waiting for a long time.
i have no idea
please help
thanks
Download an official Shipped ROM meant for your Universal and flash it. It should then pass through the screen.
thanks for the tip, i find the rom, but it need for upgrade active sync installed
and that's the issue now, because active sync does do nothing now when the device is in boatloader mode.
IT UPGRADING NOW pfffffffffffff
after intestalling again active sync...
oeps
Read Wiki!
Read Wiki.
Use mtty...DOC format.
Flash original WM5 ROM.
THEN
CID unlock with upgradeutility Noid.
You are free to do almost anything.
Again Read Wiki.
Read hdubli ...thread for stuck in bootloader.
Read Roms from Cotulla thread....it's helpful.
As long as you have intact bootloader , don't panic...it is not dead yet.
thanks for the advise, i find the wiki and solve the problem.
on my old xp pc and installed active sync, the device was direct upgraded
and the orginal rom is back to the latest version.
i find also the 6.5 rom but for now it works
