Hello,
My brother messed up his P3300 by putting on a WM6 cooked rom before CID-unlocking.
Now we have a tricolor screen, and nothing else. Not even the original rom of WM5. Does anybody have it? or know how to get it?
Country is the Netherlands
IPL is 3.13.0001
SPL is 3.13.0000
thanks.
bye bye

I do have the original dutch version of WM6 from HTC, but I suppose you can download that yourself om www.htc.com. I guess this should also work?
Hi, thanks for your replay.
Well, i need the original wm5 first, because it doesn't recognise the wm6 original one from the htc-site. Tried that to. But come to think of it, it was an upgrade.
Right now, there's nothing on the device. Only the tricolour screen
thought i try the wm5 first to see if it works.
Hi i got the backup files from the originele Dutch T-Mobile rom WM5. the only thing you need to do is put it together again. you can use htcrt for it.
Hopefully is works for you!

PS ... the backup was also found on this forum.
PPS: try to flash it from SDcard
My Orange SPV M650 is also bricked, has somebody the org. WM5 Orange ROM, thanks in advance.
I do have a dutch WM6 T-mobile ROM and a dutch WM6 HTC rom. One of them may be possible to flash.....
Apart from that. How far did you come? What happens when you push the power button? Do you get to the bootloader?
When I see your IPL/SPL I think you forgot to use USPL before flashing another ROM. You can try to use that now and flash the ROM of your choice.....

Well, I took the rom for WM6 of the HTC site. Like a good girl
It went well until i got to the 3% and it stopped the whole proces. It just shut down. If I push the powerbutton you can see the tri colour screen and the rest is in my very first post. My brother did indeed forgot to use USPL. I know. so then he came to me. Afterwards. Smarty-pants. Now we have a bricked device.
This is what i already tried:
- I tried SD-flashing. Nothing happened. (followed the instructions on the wiki-xda-site)
- i tried to put on the wm6 version of the htc site...got the 3% bit, and that's it.
- i tried to put an alternate rom on it, from the uk-idunnowhich-provider...nothing happened. also tried it with a german provider and with the dutch t-mobile provider, also 3% and than nothing (i.e. tri-colour screen)
so now, all i can think of, is to go back to basics...and just start of with the original wm5 rom. Than use USPL and THAN upgrade it. *sigh*
So that's the whole story behind it.

I just upgraded my HTC hermes TyTN from WM5 to WM 6. It all works fine except that the language isnt working. Our local dansih letters isnt on the new WM6. I was told that I needed to reinstall the old bootlader (or overwrite the new with the old) and that it was called something with SPL or IPL.
I badly want to return to my old ROM with WM5.
Can someone PLEASE tell me in details how I do so...
Kind regards

Unable to downgrade from WM6 and install original rom
Hi,I'm in the same boat. I upgraded to WM6 Black to see if this rom would fix the issues with my jasjam locking up, but it is syill doing the same thing. I need to put the original Rom back on, but activesynch shuts down during the process of installing the original rom. I've tried the search function to find information on what to do, but being an old noob, I am unable to find out what to do. If someone could point me in the right direction I would appreciate the help. Once I have the original rom back on I can send the phone back to get it fixed or replaced.
you will prob have your posts read by more cable hands in solving your issue if you post in your respective devices forums where owners of your devices with the roms on them are more likely to stumple opon your question
Time to kill my Orbit and start again....
It's running painfully slowly and the GPS won't work so I'm going to hard reset my XDA and get rid of the O2 crap, then install TomTom. I know all this stuff is here somewhere but I’m up to my eyeballs in tech articles so…. Questions:
1. Should I upgrade the ROM, and if so can anybody point me to a suitable ROM image? If I do this should I unlock it first?
2. What's the best way of getting a clean install - is it to hard reset then soft reset before the O2 stuff loads? Or should I go for a cosporate install option (is this available for the Orbit) And how do I hard reset?
3. is there an easy way of setting up the O2 connection settings afterwards or do I have to do it manually?
Lots of questions and not enough time….
I have an O2 Orbit. Best thing to do is get it unlocked by imei-check. Then run USPL program from mobile6 forum. Makes it a lot easier to fix if something goes wrong at any time. After this you can flash the ROM to your hearts content. I use Black&Bluev3 and i can truly say that WM6 is amazing. To get a clean install just do a Hard Reset then when it boots back up, before the O2 customization routine runs just Soft reset. That's all there is to it. As far as O2 setting go. Have a look through the upgrading forum. There are usually a few postings of O2 settings. If not let me know. I have the HTC UK settings file on my PC. Anything else you need help with let me know.

Thats different to my understanding of things.
If you are thinking of upgrading the rom (instead of just hard resetting the phone) then you will need to either get your phone CID unlocked with the imei-check team or run the Artemis USPL application prior to loading the new rom file. The USPL program temporarily 'unlocks' the CID whereas imei-check does it permanently. Once you've done either of these methods (I ran USPL as didn't want to pay £40 when I could get it done temporarily for free) you can then flash any of the roms suitable for your phone. I've got an o2 UK supplied Orbit and went with Tom's Black & Blue v3.
When you load the B&B rom it writes over the extended rom so all of the o2 programs are cleared so no need to soft-reset once its been flashed. This way will give you a fully functional phone with a lot of preinstalled apps (all of which are useful if not essential in my opinion) and none of the o2 junk on there.
Your other choice is to hard reset the phone and once its finished it'll prompt you about customising your phone. Simply soft reset before it gets a chance to run the ext_rom and none of the o2 crap will be on there. Now your phone will be pretty much as it left the factory with WM5 installed and thats it. If you're in the UK using o2 then the attached cab file contains all the settings that you'll need for MMS and GPRS etc.
As for question 3, see my previous statement about the cab file. Very useful to keep this as I've re-flashed my phone a few times and it makes the process a whole lot more bearable trust me!
thanks for the valuable info - I'll try Black&Bluev3 once I unlock. Excuse the ignorance, but do I just run the copy the O2 cab file to the Orbit, then run it from there?
Yep, as simple as that Probably best to copy it to your SD card and keep it on there as once the phone has been reflashed you won't have to connect up to a pc to install the network settings.
everything seemed to have gone fine, but after restarting the phone won't recognise the sim - before i even had a chance to enter the pin 3 times it reported that it required the unlocking code, and then refused to accept the unlocking code once I'd got that.
So now I've got a very sleek PDA, but no phone Any idea where I can get an O2 ROM from as I can't see it listed in the Artemis list, and am I looking for a ROM or extended ROM (what is the difference anyway?)
TIA

The b and b rom your usings originates from the leaked o2 orbit german rom - changed to wwe by bepe and tweaked by tom. So firstly i would try a hard reset or reflashing the rom. You dont need to flash USPL again as its an os only rom. If still not working flash original wm5 rom - see sticky in artemis mobile 6 forum for the link.
Hi, i have a T-Mobile MDA Compact III (UK), as original, and want to change it from WM5 to WM6, i have been reading through the forums, and havent heard anything from people being able to change it without a PC connection. I can charge off USB, but activesync doesnt find it (tried with known working cables, and different PCs). I have come to the conclusion that when i charge it in the car, its got broken (as mentioned on one of the threads).
So, is it possible to CID unlock/change the ROM from the Mico SD card?
Cheers,
I had the same problem, just bring it backk to T-mobile, they will fix it
You can update copying the new rom on the sd card and doing an hard reset. There is a thread about this.
ok, cheers guys i think i'll go pay t-mobile a visit so i can hack my phone lol
You can flash only 'official' new system by SD. I've tried to flash other .mbh (and USPL too) but it impossible ;((((
i can't find HTC service center in Moscow that can help me ;(

I hope that the link on that thread still works.
Enjoy!
So, I own a K-jam G3 PPC which I wanted to upgrade from wm5 to wm6. I really didnt have much of an experience with this but I picked up a wizard for modifying the rom and it screwed everything up :S The process halted at 99% and now I am stuck in the tri color screen. I tried downloading wizard love but it keep telling me that its the wrong version for it, even though I have downloaded the one for G3 (the GUI is in some wierd language though, the readme is in english) Now I really need to restore the ppc to its original state or hopefuly get wm6 really really really soon because I am taking a course in windows mobile applications (I know ironic) and need it to try my applications.
Actually I have just fixed the problem, took me some time to figure out but nailed it thank god. Anyway, I still need to upgrade to wm6, but I have an arabic rom. Is it possible to still unlock the CID and upgrade to wm6 or I am going to brick it again? Mind that I dont mind losing the arabic support in my k-jam

Yes u can, flash back to your original ROM and CID unlock it. Then flash a WM6 ROM.
Well since no one seems to know. I have the HTC banded Excalibur with the Dodpod 6.1 WM rom. The Dopod WM5 rom doesn't exist anymore. I am going to flash it with the T-mobile WM5 rom on this site. Are there steps I need to take before doing this? If I do and it gets stuck at 3% for wrong factory will the phone then be bricked?

Thanks for the help.

Once you have the how, go to the proper section and choose a ROM!
There is no better ROM, that will depend on your personal needs, but believe me there are great ROM´s even better than the "official" ones...
Good luck,
Thanks and apreciate the response. But it has more to do with my first post of not being able to sync with PC. I was told that I need to revert the rom to the original. I have no idea what that is and since I can't use the SDA unlock app. I don't know if I don't unlock and it freezes when downgraded if I have an expensive brick on my hands.

I had issues syncing with my PC with WM 6.1. You can flash the original rom ( I used the original T-mobile rom) using the bootloader. With your phone off, hold the camera button and plug in ur USB then hit power button. the Tricolored bootloader screen should appear. You can flash your phone to the original rom from there. Once your phone is flashed, you might wanna think about flashing a WM 6.5 rom since the syncing problem is pretty much not an issue.
P.S. all of this can be found by reading through the threads.

is it not right here?
and to answer your question i believe that you would just need to flash an official dopod rom back onto it(using bootloader)...before proceeding with the reflash to the rom of your choice...the new 3vo rom is nice, by the way
