Hello
Dunno if this is the corect place to post this thread but anyway.
I went on the official HTC Support page to download the EU ROM Upgrade.
I input my SN and this text comes out: This update is not suitable for your device.
WTF?
I have that ROM already downloaded from different page, I just wanted to try if it works now, since HTC wrote me that the SN is not recognized because when I was downloading it it was not for EU phones.
Now it is for EU phones but doesnt work anyway.
Do you think that they know which ROM I have and that is why it tells that it is not suitable for my device?
I am going to 6.5 roght now actually and I am very excited and curious.
Does anybody have similliar experniece or know what the problem is?
Thanks guys.
I have the same problem..
There were on one of the wiki-flashing-faq pages in the end of the page a list of reference S/N which you can use. I had to do that too as the german version was not available of the upgrade.
I just downloaded the WWE with the S/N supplied there on the FAQ, no probs.
abe
WOW guy`s will explain you what kind of problem i have!
When i try to regiter my blackstone in the official HTC site with my phone SN
when i write the SN and i click.. the site tell me that this is registered SN please chek your SN and try again?!!?
So what to say i don`t have words how is posible someone to use my SN when i buy the phone brand new in box never used befor?

Mmm.. you left quite far behind. But it is not too late. I suggess you to upgrade with o2 Uk ROM like you did, but before doing this, "cook" them first, like what i did. I'm from Indonesia,. yes we are neighborhood.
here some guidance. (execuse me Zero... .. (i put this form one of his posting)
1. study this http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=12101 by read them carefuly, BUT do not upgrade your's now.Continue to the next step
2. study this http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=12547 until finish, my stupid question there will help you much... thanks again Zero... you are the best
3. From this guidance, You can update yours without error country ID and not losing your "auto config". the last is the easiest way to activate your GPRS. Yes, Asian Phone Provider, like mine.
4. Have a nice New ROM

Here is the link to the site, it just came up.
http://www.t-mobile.com/wmupgrade/
Funny though, because it does link you to the infospace site, so i guess that site was legit.
Hm,
how does a valid '10 digit T-Mobile phone number' look like ???
Thanks, Newchurch
lol. you can't be serius.
xxx-xxx-xxxx
I don' t live in USA and dont't know any t-mobile number.
No way to download the file without number ... : ((
EDIT: Google is your friend ... ; )) Found a number.
there are links to the rom everywhere. you don't need a number.
The link I used was:
http://www.t-mobileapps.com/downloadcenter/Software_List.cfm?selDevice=27
which does not ask any numbers... (I downloaded it to compare with leaked version, exactly the same files)
Hello,
I'm seeing people have released cooked ROMs based on 1.97.*, but I couldn't find any official 1.97.* ROMs neither on the forum nor on the wiki. Can somebody point me the related post or wiki page please, if there is any?
Thanks.
Go to HTC download
Klick the download link. On the HTC site. And see what the file name is. cOuse it might be posible they did not chenged the download link name.
The only ROM version I was able to download today from htc.com was a 1.93.* WWE, with the serial number of my device. Is there any other method for accessing official ROMs? I mean, without a serial number?
I think what he's trying to say is this,
Look at the download link for the 1.93 rom and just change the url, you might get luck. so change (for example) http://htc.com/193.rom to http://htc.com/1xx.com.
Edit:
Checked to see the download link for ya, the 1.93 link is this:
http://dl.htc.com/downloadfiles/Rom...igned_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship.exe
edit it to your likings and hope for the best.

@nilsk123
I understand the method you're offering but I think the way HTC call their ROM update files is making impossible to guess alternative versions. There are too many numbers to play with, just too many possibilities Also, the link created by HTC web site could simply be a symlink or a virtual folder created on the fly according to our serial numbers.
@Weisan
Thanks for the link, appreciated. This ROM looks like created for Vodafone, are there any unbranded 1.97.* updates present in the forum?
I would be interested also, to see if HTC have improved much since the 1.93 ROMS...
Has anyone else had the same problem with the HTC web site asking for a user name and password to download the official WM 6.5 update ROM?
I was lucky as i did mine yesterday
Yip - I am also greeted with a request for a username and password. Annoying

the password is for some random pic trying to load somewhere ... just click cancel
i was on there today and everything was fine even after clicking cancel.
Nice to see another SA person around. Sadly it rejected my Serial Number .. saying the update is not applicable for my device *sob*
Guess I'll have to wait for the local HTC site to get the update
i get this message when i write my SN:
"Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device'
anyone know why?
thx
I suspect the ROM's are built for different areas .. and the phone you are trying with is not allowed to get that particular ROM that you are trying to download?
so i cant upgrade my phone?
there will be a good ROM for my phone?
thx
All roms avaiable at HTCPedia!!!
Just google htcpedia, register at the forum then download the rom you need!
best regards
i did that already. RGB color appears on my phone screen and after few seconds the phone is restarting... error ''294 invalid vendor".
'This update utility cannot be used for your PDA. Please checkyour update utility.''
ROM downloaded from htcpedia. Europe ROM.
My phone ROM is 1.19.401.0
I desperately googled it....but found no answers.
o wise ppl of XDA....please guide me how i can flash HTC's stupid BrewMP with android 2.1 or winMo 6.5.
Is it possible? what ROM i should use ?
Any help would be deeply appreciated.
even UPSL method will do...just anything to get me rid of BrewMP
uspl not free！my computer use it only one！wuwu！
Yeah even i'm stuck up with Brew OS, pls someone hwlp me install android or winmo !!
HTC Smart
My HTC Smart download twitter fail Help me
There would be no SPL needed for the HTC Smart as the BrewOS apparently loads directly from the flash, no need for a SPL to kickstart the process.
BrewOS woulds directly at hardware level, not like Android or WinMo.
I could be wrong, but for the moment, it's unlikely.
HTC Smart HSPL
Dear Admenistratory forum,do please HSPL for HTC Smart.Sorry for my Inglish.
ROM Upgrade for HTC Smart,http://www.htc.com/ru/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=974&news_id=683
Yes there is an upgrade available but wont accept my serial number probably because its under 02 licence.
Any ideas?
Regards,
Gerard
Hi gerlynch,What beside you serial number on Device?Sorry for my inglish,my HT04XP005143
Hi Ahror
I just tried your number and it did not work so i think they may be network/region tied.
My no. is HT05DP000108 but this will not work
Shipped ROMS
Shippedroms.com has lots of htc smart (rome) firmwares, unfortunately not the O2 firmware i need to reflash the water damaged one i got...
Will have to wait till o2 bring out new firmware (if ever)
I haven't found a way of getting any of these onto the phone yet... but still uses RUU like all the other new HTC Qualcomm devices... main issue is Vendor ID. I am pretty sure no version of HSPL type program for HTC Smart.
If anyone has a copy of the O2 version please let me know where to get it from.
Cheers
Hi, if we can download the rom upgrade from htc (from htc.com/es for example), its possible to change the original language (english, chinese and thai) to spanish ? my serial number is not valid for download the latest version.
Unfortunately, no...
You can not just reflash your HTC with the ROM which is compiled for another language/region. The RUU will stop with "Invalid Vendor" error.
This problem is solved here for most of HTC devices, but not (hope "not yet") for our Rome/Smart.
Regardless that Smart is just a phone, not a smartphone, it is still HTC. And it needs kind of modified loader which would allow to use different ROM.
I have an O2 Smart in hand and wish to flash it with any ganeric ROM, but still have no luck finding the way.
Flashed with South East Asia Rom in India
Downloaded the Rom from South East Asia and using the Hex editor changed the CID, and was able to flash the ROM on my HTC Smart.
To change the CID use the HEX Editor and change the CID in .nbh file to your country and use it.

hey raj_codes, i've done this and downloaded the hex editor, but i'm not sure how to change CID, and what CID of my carrier / country is?
i'm on telenor, serbia, and can't find any info about its CID on internet.
thanks and sorry for probably lame questions, i'm not into flashing and stuff, but this original smart / rome ROM drives me insane.
thanks.
For those from serbia u must download from polish part of htc site worked like a charm,so you must find your region if you want to flash your rom,this could be find if you check languages on your phone

Well, I don't know about Serbia CID, I also didn't find anything on th web.
Try it anyway flashing the South Asian Rom, it may work if there isn't any lock.
And the original Smart Rom and the one of South East Asia has only one difference that it doesn't come with Carrier application installed, thats why I am using it, I like clean Rom.
Sorry, for late answer and wasn't able to help further.

I am trying to so the same thing with Russian ROM. I have bought the phone in the US and also downloaded the Russian ROM. The problem is: How do you extract CID from the ROM? Can anybody please tell us about this procedure in some more details or at least direct to some useful link? .(Google search wan't helpful at all).
Where in the file did you locate and change the CID? Right now I have no idea what this CID even looks like. So confused, and asking for help.
Thanks a lot and I would really appreciate your suggestions!

OK, it worked: just replace the country code (located in 0x1C0 using HexEditor) in the ROM that you want to install with the country code of your original ROM.
Great thanks go to: pavlovmax1983 from ht tp : // 4pda . ru/ forum / inde x . ph p ? showtopic = 174362 & st = 60
Mine was originally SEA (I guess South East Asia): HTC__044
And in Russian ROM is was: HTC__A07
That's it! If anybody needs either Russian or SEA ROMs I can upload by request. (ver. 1.0.405.95739)
