UNBRANDED HTC Universal with v1.01b bootloader

Hi, I need help erasing or downgrading (upgrading) this unbranded HTC Uni from bootloader v1.01b (yes it shows a "b" in bootloader mode) to anything that will let me try and get this thing unlock. I'm suspicious because of the bootloader it stopping me from updating to any radio rom, in particular the special radio rom (0.00.00) for unlocking purposes. Currently on there is radio rom 1.03.00 and try everything to my ability could not get this thing to upgrade or downgrade, I think it's the bootloader is to blame. I have search all over the web and no one ever carry this version of bootloader (v1.01b). So please help me out if you can so I can first get this thing to unlock. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the welcome. Yes, read it a million times, try every possible method still to no available. Couldn't tell what the oem rom for this device since it's a no branded one. Right now I have jasjar rom in there but again this bootloader version 1.01b (it's the "b" I'm taking about) would'nt let me update to any other radio rom (stuck at 1.03.00). Update the OS rom and Ext rom with no problem.

Hope this help, I have attached a screen shot of my mtty.exe. Thanks in advance.

HTC Diamond, cant flash...

Hey guys,
first off im a newbie & i have trawled thru countless threads etc. I just bought a Telstra branded Diamond which id like to update to the optus rom (im with them). From wat i undastand, a hardspl is needed before attempting to flash a rom. Ive tried olinex signed, developer edition etc successfully. These are meant to enable u to flash any rom, but wen i try to add the optus or other official rom i get the invalid id error...
Wat am i doing wrong??? Thanks in advanced.

Have you unlocked it yet
Search here for the diamond unlocker utility if you haven't yet. I have a cdma Diamond from sprint but this site is mostly gsm so I'm sure you want to get the right unlocker, not sure what would happen or if the unlockers are different for gsm and cdma but they probably are. Hope I helped.

Unlocked?
It came unlocked from factory, it accepted my optus sim & has functionality. Is that wat u meant?

cid unlock is carrier id unlock basically you want to have your diamond cid unlocked before you flash various carrier roms on it. If it came sim unlocked than cid is probably locked to htc thus constricting you to official htc rom updates only.
cid unlock your diamond and than proceed with flashing other roms.

After more experimenting it worked! Found hardspl unsigned, flashed the olinex 1.93 version followed by flashing optus rom HA-ZAAAAAAAH

What optus rom?
Do you have a link to the optus rom that you used? Was it this one (generic AU)?

Help relocking Vogue

Ok i bought my vogue unlocked w .41 (nonGPS) and since i have had it i have been unable to relock or upgrade unlocker to 2.31. I am trying to get it flashed with a custom GPS rom that i can set to MetroPCS. Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

I'm nowhere near an expert on this, but did you try upgrading to the latest ROM posted on HTC.com? I hear this will relock your device and enable GPS/Rev A, and after that you can install your unlocker and custom ROM.
This is assuming it is a Sprint Touch since I'm not sure if other Touches have the same GPS/Rev A ROM available direct from HTC.

All the info you need is here and to relock the vogue click here google is your best friend.
Good luck

tried all of that. Im running the sprint 1.12/2.13 original stock rom. Any other updated stock rom flashed my radio away (thanks to .41 unlocker that will not get the f*#k off my phone!). Imcokeman's .40 and 2.31 fail to relock or upgrade to 2.31. Ive had this phone for about 3 weeks now trying to get it switched to Metro. Getting very frustrated.

nvm, im a dumb ass. I've been extracting unlockers and running just the RUU. Big mistake. just got it relocked.

Upgrading Rom of already upgraded Uni... Unlock again?

So, I got my hand on an Uni G4 (xda exec) that has 6.5 on it... I want to downgrade to the Tmo UK WM5 rom.
How do I know if I have to unlock the sim and cid (again)?
Under what circumstances would the sim and/or cid be re-locked (after it had been unlocked)?
And how do I know if I should do a DOC format? I see that there are a few ROMs that once installed require a DOC format if you want to change the ROM again.
And I did search the forums first, and could find the answers I need. I'm still checking up on the ROM that is currently installed on my Uni - 5.2.23016 (5.3.0 Luca16)
TIA!

Once it has flashed the 1st cooked ROM it has to be full unlocked, no need to do it again so you can downgrade without any problem os locking sim.
Have a look here to get one great wm5 ROM

Vogue stuck in HTC logo

Help guys, I have a Sprint vogue that was flashed before. It was CID unlocked and has custom ROM on it. My cousin was the one using it then he returned it to me at this state. Problem is the phone does not have any radio. So i tried to bootload it and flash it with a radio but it does not accept it . It's now CID locked.
VOGU100 MFG
SPL-2.01.1000
CPLD-3
I tried to flash it with an OEM ROM, Sprint, USC, Alltel, telus, Bell, VZW nothing seems to work. is there any way to ICD unlock this? so i could flash it with an OEM rom. Thanks.
