Good morning all
Is the first time that i write in a forum, i'll try to explain my problem and i hope that somobody can help me.
I'm working in china and one day i lost my thelephone, so i decided to buy a PDA HTC P3300.But only after some day i saw that some thing was not working, so i'm tring to downgrade a new rom.
Here i had my problem, i followed all the details that i found on internet, also i took some informations and file from this forum to coplete the procedure like Hard SPL and so on, the problem is that when activesync is connected to the device i launch for example Hard SPL to upgrade it but after the program showed me the version installated and i said upgrade, i waited for a while and then the progam told me to check the usb connection (i tried whit 3 different cable) ERROR 260.The same thing happened when i tried to change the ROM.
CAN SOMEBODY HELP ME PLEASE?? I NEED THE PDA ALSO FOR WORK.
Thank you everybody!
You might have better luck asking for assistance on this subject in the Artemis upgrading forum:

Hard Spl??? For the Artmes?? Mate are you trying to brick your device cause it seems you are doing a pretty good job of it too,Hard Spl is NOT for the p3300 it is for the Hermes and Trinity which are two very very different models of HTC. Please make an effort to read the Wiki before you start messing with the phone.Try flashing the t-mobile stock rom FOR THE ARTEMIS(WITHOUT THE HARD SPL) and hopefully it may work also find out from your buyer if it is CID unlocked though i doubt wether they would know.
Check in Settings - Connections - USB to PC that the USB advanced network functionality is not ticked. That's caught me out in the past after making changes.
This is assuming that others in this forum are correct and you've not yet made a brick using the wrong model. Good luck!
One problem more on rom
Thanks all for your answers
sorry but i still had one problem more
As arvind09 said i read almost all Wiki before do some other stupid things, i downloaded anhoter rom from this page:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Artemis_Upgrades
but the rom that i found is HTC rom 1.12.405.101, and is not working on my artemis, i looked in my system and i saw that i need this ROM 1.13.110.101
wich is not downloadable form that page. (AM I RIGHT?)
May i know where i can find the rom T-mobile 1.13.110.101 ?

T-Mobile Here
Did you buy it in China?
If you bought the phone in China, there will be 2 versions. 1 for the chinese market (han huo) and the others are for other markets (usually europe) then flashed with the chinese rom (shui huo). As far as I know the chinese versions aren't locked and the foreign market versions musn't be locked either due to the fact that they have to put on the chinese rom

Dear All,
I spent a lot of hours, days, reading the posts on the forum about the Universal and upgrading it. I didn't find some answers.
I still have some open questions that I request your help in order to have a safe upgrade.
I have a Qtek 9000, that is SimLock.
I would like to Upgrade to an AKU 3.5 ROM or to one Crossbow ROM ( still under assessment)
Now my questions:
To upgrade,
I will have to upgrade bootloader, because since Aku 3.2 Rom , it needs to be 1.01. That is clear.
Edit: Opsss tried bottloader for first time and my version is 2.01 So no bootloader upgrade, but new question:
Sim Unlock works with bootloader 2.01?
1 - Do I need to SIMUNLOCK before ROM or Radio ROM upgrade? If yes:
- I will need an oficial radio ROM. Which one? Are 1.13 or 1.14 is OK?
- Must I first Simunlock and only after upgrade the bootloader?
2 -Country Code error, what is it? (Solved)
Edit : About Country error, no specific answer, but i got almost what I looked for.
Thx you all for the hard work and colaboration on this site.
Cheers
TADAA... answers
I'm afraid you didnt took your best sshot at searching, cuz 3 or 4 post above yours is a topic called "problems with upgrading?"
in this topic you will find the info AND tools you need to succesfully upgrade..
I don't know about the simlock thing, i flashed mine with the simlock on, to a cooked rom, and it works, but don't blame me if it F*CKS up your mobile i suggest that you do a bit of research in that part..
Country id error:
You get that when you try to install a rom that is from a different manufacturer/country then yours, to solve this problem look at this link

I know how to solve the country error, I just would like to get more info about it.
About the other post, I will look for it, but when i made search ( last time was the last week) I didn't find the answers i look for.
Since I looked and didn't find it could you please provide a link? ( sorry)
Thx for your help.
Hi,
1. I agree with bastiaanoskam cause I think almost any question about upgrading the Universal has been answered before in this forum.
2. I don't see the need to unlock your device if you don't want to change your current provider.
3. As far as I understand the country error is due to a change in the original language for which your device was thought (look for MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe) i.e. you have a Japanese device and want to upgrade to WWE version.
4. About the bootloader, I just saw one ROM that is said it requires to upgrade your bootloader to 1.01, it was a preview AKU3.2 from i-mate but I don't really know if the upgrade is really needed. I have read it's not needed for Crossbow and also for custom cooked AKU3.5 but again every new cooked ROM usually has a thread so you can find answers there.

1 - I do agree that there is a lot of info about the upgrade process, I just didn't find the answer for what I'm looking for.
2 - I didn't find a post where is stated that the device should be unlock to install the new ROM, but I also din't find the oposite, so my doubt.
3 - It seems that I should try first and if I get the error, go for the alternative method. I woul like to jump this step, but if there isn't other way, well, that's life
4 - Maybe it's a bad interpretation on my side of the wiki post. Porbably only some I-mate based roms need the bottloader upgrade.
thx for the help
For those of you with a device that is NOT supported for the official WM6 rom release, this is what you need to do to flash it to your device. It is a reversable process (save for m700 users, you all need to backup your OEM rom first).
First step, if you don't have it already get hard-spl:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=42938&d=1183561237
Second step, flash it if you didn't already have it.
Third step download my safely converted update:
http://rapidshare.com/files/4219712...oIPL_noRadio_offical_rom_sspl_loader.rar.html
Step 4, flash it.
If you want the radio, proceed to use the others posted here at the forum...

Thank's a lot Shadowmite,
Just one last question before I try :
You're refering to the "Hard-SPL_ZakMcRofl.zip" in your first post. On the other hand, I saw you opening a thread regarding the new "Hard-SPL 1.30 MFG - Oli.zip".
Which one should I/we use, or doesn't it make any difference.
Having a SFR/Vodafone s300+ I'm a bit scared as there's no genuine rom to downgrade back to in case I get blocked.
Bye
because he wrote that post before Olipro released his updated Hard-SPL.. use the new one.

Thank you so much!
I want to try this ROM right now, but I don´t have access to rapidshare-like sites here in my office.
Can someone upload this ROM to a public server ZIPped and RARed with password (to avoid proxy to sneak into the file... it's blocking some downloads...)
I can setup a FTP account. If someone can upload the ROM to my server, I can share the ROM with people who has the same problem with rapidshare-and-stuff sites.
Thanks!!!
installed the rom.
but....
now i want to return to the original rom and downgrading i obtain a vendor id error.
I tried to cid unlock the device also and the error i the same. any ideas that can help me?
thanks

ROM working but...
Hi there!
First of all thanks for the trouble of getting the nasty bits out of the bundle and giving us just the OS
But... (there seems to be always a "but" with WM6) I've been having some problems with this:
- VOIP is nowhere to be found, no SIP settings anywhere.
- Memory Stick corruption. From time to time my SDHC stick goes crazy, showing up strange characters for the filenames and only a soft-reset gets it back to normal.
- Did any of you guys manage to get Video Calling working?
Well... the major deal for me is the Memory Card issue... Anyone having the same problems? Any ideas?
Best,
M Addario
--
HTC P3600
any hard-spl will work for this repackaging of the release.. you're fine to proceed
yes, you have Des' crash-proof SPL
addario, there's really no need to post the same question in multiple threads..
This rom seem to not contain any ext_rom ...
The "Device Information" module dont report any EXT_ROM version ...
it's "normal" ?
The attached screen capture show the "Device information" tab.
There is no informations about the ext_rom.
I also cannot access to it thru Total Commander.
So... it seem that something is corrupted on this rom update...
Some Info....
@ Shadowmite
Dear could you please tell me from which version did you re-make this ROM & why is there no detail showing of ExtROM in Device Information.
Hi,
I'm completely new to all this but have done my best to try and figure it out for myself but I'd still like to make sure I've understood a few things correctly...
I have an SFR s300+ bought here in France. The OS is WM5 and I'd like WM6.
I have allready tried out the "off"+"camera button"= soft reset to see if I needed to install a hard SPL : I do. I've downloaded Des' Crashproof (due to the reassuring name).
I can now install that by following the guide without backing anything up yet...
Once done I will have to copy all my important info and then I will be able to flash any ROM of my choice (English, French, official or not) is that right? If I'm not mistaken and I can install any ROM, which English ROM is the best (this one looks good...)?
I'd also like to know if I have to install a radio after this or will the one I have at the moment (that works fine) be preserved?
If I do have to install a radio which do you recommend for SFR in France considering I sometimes go to Spain.
Thanks for your help

thanks to the ELITE team, ROM chefs, and everyone that made upgrading our diamonds possible!
Niceeeeeeeeeeeee
Looks good mate. Keep it coming!
My one issue with this (and only a small one!) is that .info sites are notorious for scammers. Obviously thats not a scam site but you don't wanna be tarred with same brush!
really? ha well, the main reason is that a .info is $0.99/year haha (maybe its cheap since they're only used by scammers now?)... and i don't think it hurt trinityguides being on an .info domain.. but if accessing a .com would make you feel more at home, then donate away!
LOL 99c - no wonder they are used by scammers.... !!
Looks really nice. Keep up the good work.
Hmm.. I know it sounds very stupid and yes it is.
I do not know which version I had before. It was one of the earlie Expansys Models build for UK. Does someone know which SPL was the original one?
Cheers
hmm... i don't know about that. wouldn't it be the one on the official UK ROM that's circulating? or is that without SPL?
It was an original UK-ROM. So I guess a UK device.
Bought her ein germay from a company who had the device already 2 weeks ago.
Everything was in english and the default region was set to english (uk).
Maybe I ned to have a look at the box. Maybe I can find more info about the device there.

Really nice.
Some basics need to be Explained:
SPL,Radio,ROM differences, three parts.
What is a ROM
What is SPL and Bootloader
Why do we need HardSPL
What happens when we Flash Rom
What happens with hard reset
What happens with soft reset
What is the Radio Rom
Internal Storage and Memory difference
These basics will make a newbe more familiar with procedure.
IT's very well explained how HARDSPL install works, but when never done this, no-one will know what HARDSPL is and a newbie never is sure enough about it to just flash without asking us. And we want this Explanations, so one does not have to ask
Please help! Diamond will not boot
Hi
I did something really stupid. I was having battery drain issues with my new Touch Diomand, so I logged into HTC website to get the firmware upgrade.
I used to have an HTC Touch, and that was the only firmware available on their site, at the time I did not realise that it was the wrong one for me !
So I started installing it, it failed, and now I get the rainbow screen at startup.
I have tried hard reset, no joy. I have called HTC, they cannot help. No-one here in NZ services these phones, so I am stuck.
I have tried installing the firmware update from modmydiamond.info, but I STILL get the same problem, it just shows the rainbow screen and I cannot continue from there...
On a PC,this would be a bootstrap issue, I have no idea what to do (other than buying an iphone) any wisdom ??
That site is really nice...it introduced me to the HTCD flash world...
thanks.

Hi,

Download a Hard-SPL from the forums here
Hard-SPL 1.40 Olinex SIGNED
I succesfully downloaded and installed the Olinex Hard-SPL, but when I enter
the bootloader te tri-colour screen reads SPL-1.30 OliNex i.s.o. 1.40. What
did I do wrong? What are the differences between 1.30 and 1.40?

Hello everyone ..
I need your help , I I installed the arabizer and rebooted ... and never reach home again! phone is jamming at BT LOGO and doesnt go any further.
took battery off , same thing! cant get activesync see the phone either
BTW, I recently Upgraded to WM6 Standard !!
any ideas?
Appreciate your time guys!
check the sticky for the unbricking your phone thread and also the hard reset bootloader thread. they should allow you to unbrick and reflash your phone. upgrade to ookba's 6.5 and you'll encounter less problems. im guessing your phone wasn't unlocked to apps since you're just hitting WM6 standard. you might wanna do that next time and prevent this problem again
Thanks dude,
I will check it and get back to you

Was your BT not already WM6 as they have been dispatched for over a year with WM6.
B.T.W if you after a nicer looking better functioning device update to 6.1 or 6.5, the BT official ROM is posted in sticky too just incase you have to return phone ever "not that i thnk BT would even turn the phone on to check lol they pretty useless @ everything they do" yep i'm an ex BT subscriber

Sure I want, what do you recommend??? I will eventually need to have some Arabic support thought!
I bought it over Ebay with WM5, but got it upgraded to WM6 (still BT, and yes it looks stupid )
one your phone is properly unlocked for apps and you are settled in with a rom that works well for you, installing arabic support shouldn't be a problem. just make sure the Arabic support program you install will work with the rom you choose. search the forums and find all the info on the roms and find one that will suit you best. don't be scared to ask questions.. but diving head first without all the research can be sketchy. really really sketchy
tried few threads but I still cant flash any new roms !
okay i'm still working on no sleep but you seem pretty desperate and i think i know how you feel. A bricked phone sucks. So here's the threads and i'll explain as i give em to you. If you phone is locked up (bricked) and wont boot up past the Windows screen go here and follow the instructions to get your phone working again http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493266 if you had to use that to unbrick your phone and prepare it for flashing flash your phone with one of these factory roms from herehttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=381726. once your phone is working and you can access your home screen and start menu install this program to unlock your sim and applications from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355789. this will allow you to flash through serveral of the new 6.5 roms such as the 3vo http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=523718 and the NRGhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=527496 rom series. If you absolutly can't getting it working messages us back and one of the makers of these roms will help you because im going to sleep. good luck
EDIT: if you absolutely can not unbrick check out this tutorial:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=540492

Hi All
Well, after being without one for almost 5 years ... I have bought a second hand HTC Universal, mine to be specific is the O2 XDA Exec.
Being as it was second hand all I got was the handset and USB cable, no discs, box ... nothing! I am really trying to down-grade the ROM on it. It currently has WM6.5 .. and from what I can tell it is defo a cooked ROM from somewhere. I want to down grade to WM5 so it is faster and I dont need any of this fancy stuff as I will be using it for home automation.
I have done ROM upgrading before on my old HTC Touch HD ... so can anyone point me in the right direction please

I have done the task 28 55aa and from what I can tell, it did what it was meant to. I cant seem to upgrade any roms tho, I have downloaded 5 so far and all have failed saying it cannot find RAPI.dll ... can anyone help me please?
Sorry, maybe I should explain what I have tired! Might help lol
OK, I bought this of eBay and it came with a really bad home cooked Rom that was really slow and laggy. I wanted to downgrade it down to WM5 again so I picked a ROM of here and set about updating. At this point I need to mention this, I cant remember the name of the rom BUT I DO NOT BLAME the cooker of the rom, any rom cookers or xda developers for the problems I now have ... i did this fully knowing i am doing it at my own risk!
So, I didnt do alot off research and found out later that you need a special driver to flash in windows 7. Since trying to flash my HTC it has been stuck in boot loader. I have tried the task 28 55aa, tried upgrading just the radios and just the roms. Hard reset .. all that I can think and no luck at all.
Some of the roms come wtih "MaUpgradeUt_noID" this works, but the "ROMUpgradeUt" doesnt as it says the RAPI.dll file is missing.
Please can someone help me!
Again, on my sig link you´ll find a lot of help threads for problems like that.
I can recommend you to do a DOC format, instructions on my link as well.
all is well now, thanks orb. without your super guide I'd still have a dead HTC.
For all those who want to know, I had to upgrade my ROM on a windows XP machines ... luckily work surprisingly allowed me to do it!!
