Well, i tryied to see what information i retrieve with the french rom of qtek 9100 executable, u know, the screen in wich u can get info about the device language, image versiion and model make. Followed the standard procedure , CID unlocked, backed up the rom, no need to sim unlock cbecause it was no locked. Here comes the weird part: the screen that was supposed to return the info (where u still can quit),didn't return any info, it was like upgrading nothing to nothing. It's a g3 and i did the normal way to CID unlock it. now whehn i reboot the phone, the SPL remained the same (1.01), but the IPL has changed from 1.01 to IPL 1.01.0000. Why those four zeros?...neve knew.Anyway i didn't installed any rom , because of no info on that screen...was afraid not to damage my device . If i want to install a new rom do i have to CID unlock again, even if i didn't installed any?

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.

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.

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

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?
Hello,
I have a HTC Touch Diamond p3700. Now I have take a look around at the forum/wiki and other external links. and found a solution to my problem. What I wanna do is change the language from my phone to english. Throught a website found on google I was able to get "HTC Touch Diamond_MRII_RUU_Diamond_HTC_Europe_2.03.401.3_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.51.25.26_1.09.25.23_Ship"
from the HTC website (by the provided serial number). my question number 1 is is this file I got compatible with my phone?. Also by reading the wiki about SPL I found out I could do a SPL ROM update (just install the rom with the provide file from HTC website) or do a HARDSPL ROM update. Question number 2 is What is the avantage to have a HARD SPL?.
To my situation isnt it better to have a soft SPL over hard? If I just want to change the OS language! I dont need any tweaks or so. Just want it in english, like how it will be like a brand new HTC comes from US or UK.
I hope you guys can help me out with this question. Thanks in advance
If you want to change stock rom, with another language than on your phone, you have to flash HSPL olinex-unsigned, you can find it on this forum, use 1.93-olinex-unsigned.
You don't have to flash SPL, just if you upgrade your stock rom with same language like on it, which came with your phone, where you buyed, form example if you buyed phone in SWE, rom on it is SWE, and if you try to change lang-rom with WWE, it will show message, "wrong vendor id, or lang id" , than what you have to do, if you change lan OS, from originally, you have to flash with olinex-unsigned...
What I have done now is Flashed to Hard-SPL-Diamond-OliNex.
The problem now is when I try to run the SPL ROM update it will stuck at 0 procent (phone screen) and in windows it say 262 update error.
I have tried with _HTC Touch Diamond_MRII_RUU_Diamond_HTC_Europe_2.03.401.3_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.51.25.26_1.09.25.23_Ship which I downloaded from the HTC website and also with RUU_Diamond_HTC_Europe_1.93.401.2_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship which is provided in this forum as supported ROM.
Can anyone help me out?

Place your device into bootloader mode(soft reset + hold vol. down until you see rainbow screen) before flashing.
Connect to pc....u should see bottom switch from serial to usb then flash device using your RUU_exe.
it say "Trigger USB Host..." Few seconds later than in red "Retry Enter USB"
More Info:
Currently

ROM Date: 07/10/08
Radioversion: 1.00.25.05

It should just read USB in bootloader mode. Not familiar with above statements. Try another USB port.
when I do (soft reset + vol down + back) it comes into the tri color screen. Then it switch screen to something where it say "no image found" and switch to the screen I descript
Edit:
I have plugged the phone into another usb port now I get the tri color screen with USB on the bottom. Then I run the RUU I downloaded from the htc site. But it cannot detect my current ROM version so I ignore that and just go on. Then the phone jumps into the progress bar screen!! it has been 3 minutes now but still @ 0%
I have no idea what it was or why is that. But I have successfully update the ROM into english. What I have changed from my configuration above was searching for SPL 1.40 on the internet. After reading alot I have the idea that the version 1.30 I had downloaded is not the right one. And unfortunately I cannot find 1.40 on this forum so I had to try with google. After flashing the phone into 1.40 UNSIGNED (yes I took the risk and put the unsigned version on it).
When all that has happened I could easily run the ROM I downloaded from the HTC website and update the phone. Everything goes smoothly without problem.
So the problem lies in version 1.30 HSPL vs 1.40 HSPL.
For people just drop into this website and want to change your ROM etc. here is a good tip. The information given on this website is great, good, and correct! but just beware that the tools provided might be outdated while tutorials, FAQ's, WIKI and forum threads are all taking about the newer version of tools.
