Can i reistall old i-mate rom after 6.1 ?!

Hello
Thank for all of you guys, I've converted to windows mobile 6.1 on k-jam.
I have downloaded i-mate offecial rom from i-mate site ... can i reinstall it ?? will I re-unlock CID on my device ?
Thankssssssss very much
Reverting back to official rom all depends on the DOC Chip version of the phone.If its a G3,there's no problem,yes! you can easily flash back to Official stock rom anytime you want,just hook up the phone with pc and run the RUU in the rom to start flashing.
Butmif its a G4,and you upgraded through 'SoftSPL',still there's no further procedure to reflash official rom,just hook up and run the Rom,coz,SoftSPL doesn't replace original official IPL/SPL of the phone.
Well,if you upgraded your G4 device through 'HardSPL',than,first you'll have to remove HardSPL,flash back to original official IPL/SPL,which were there at the time of applying HardSPL and only then its possible to revert back to official rom,Coz,HardSPL replaces the official IPL/SPL with patched IPL/SPL and if flashed the official rom,which has official IPL/SPL,will Brick the phone.
G3 device once CID unlocked will remain unlocked for all times,whether you revert back to official rom or not,Putting official rom again will not apply CID lock again.

is it possible to downgrade the bootloader (so as to downgrade firmware)?

i've upgraded to the 2.x firmware without realising that i can't run the RUU file to downgrade back to 1.3x anymore. (bootloader version error)
the reason for the downgrade is because i want the apac firmware back instead of the wwe.
thanks for advice!
i got the same problem.
can someone please help?
Same problem , want to downgrade my rom but there is bootloader version error.
someone please help...
HTc have designed the Legends bootloader so you can't downgrade it fellas.
Only thing I can recommend for those of you that have accidently installed the newer bootloader is to utilise the new WWE 2.03 ROM to unbrand your device - NO ROOTING AVAILABLE AS YET THOUGH

[Q] HD7 - [Error 294] INVALID VENDER ID (for all signed roms)

Dear friends,
2 days ago, i tried my hd7 to update official Mango (posted from football) from NoDo. But update is not complated and my phone is still stay in Bootloader Screen. Everythings looking fine in Bootloader screen :

MicroP(LED) 0x07
TOUCH S1(v1.8,#1624)
GREEN:
SD SANDISK 15193MB
Partition Info-v211v413
BLUE:
Empty
WHITE:
Serial - USB (After plug cable)
But, when I try flash a ROM, Update Utility saying : Error 264: Invalid Vendor ID and my phone is going back to Bootloader Screen.
Before Update:
My device is not haved RSPL/HSPL.
Working with official stock rom (updated to 7403 via Zune)
Not installed Chevron Unlock
I tried to flash all official stock ROM :
RUU Schubert HTC Europa 1.16.401.01
RUU Schubert HTC Europa 1.69.401.01
RUU Schubert S HTC 4.05.401.02
After tried many ways and methods, I was angry and i tried RSPL/HSPL to Mango SPL (4.XXX) but RSPL/HSPL not worked on my phone (Error: USB Device Not Detected)
Now:
Bootloader Screen looking fine.
I tried to flash all official ROMs from HTC.
Never Installed HSPL/RSPL to phone
I installed official rom before via Rom Update Utility, but phone haved SPL 3.XXX
My phone is stiil wait in boot screen. Not openning OSX.
My Phone is HD 7 Unbranded - Sim Free
any solutions?
(Im so sorry for my bad English)
Thanks...
Are you completely sure you have an Europe HD7?
Did you ever flash an original rom before?
actually im not sure my friend. but i was upload a europan flash to my phone before (RUU_7403).im trying asian now.
I hope for you that asian roms will work.
The only solution I which can work if other original roms also fail is to get the eqipment to flash via gold card methode.
But I hope asian roms will work
thank you sadman but i tried 2 asian roms but not worked. i cant believe this. Resuming error 294 Invalid Vender ID...
So lets say you really have an european HD7
When you flash an old rom (Standard or NoDo) did the flashing tool try to flash or does it fail imidietly?
If you flash old rom's the phone is rebooting after flashing spl & than continues flashing the rest.
maybe by trying older roms, spl is flashed but the os fails like the Mango spl which you mentioned in the first post.
If the bootloader doesn't show the spl version 4.xx you have the chance to try RSPL/HSPL and flash a good/old rom
yes bro, i have european HD 7. after the trying Mango update, SPL is changed to 4.5 from 3.1 and probem started with Mango Update. i need to change SPL, i know, but RSPL/HSPL is not working with this SPL. Phone driver is "Qualdcomm CDMA Technologies MSM" in bootloader mode and showing under Mobile Devices -> HTC Sync in Device Manager.
Edit:
Dear friends. Problem is solved !? i was try RSPL to SPL 4.5 (very dangerous), tool is say a error "not complated". And now, stock rom is openned automatically? i dont understand anything.But phone is half bricked.Now, not showing anything in Bootloader screen.Red-Green-Blue and White is empty.

i believe, you try to hard to help, magpir.
this thread is two months old, besides...
as redzippo said, (s)he has a half-bricked device.
in which case, flashing a Shipped ROM will not solve this issue.
hell i have the same problem! anyone have the solution??i tried like 10 different roms and none worked...if i try to flash with RUU wrapper in one case i get to 1% flash,and in other 3% flash and then the error invalid vender id...

[Q] Nodo but bootlader is 5.11.x.x ? how?

Hi,
I wanted to install that http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1271118
but it is written that I should downgrade to NoDo . So I had my Nodo back up. I did that using Zune.
my phone is showing version 7.0.x.x which is Nodo but my bootlader version is still 5.11.x.x.
how this is possible? does it mean that even bootlader version is 5.x, if I have nodo, I can continue installing RSPL/HSPL?
EDIT: I have just learnt that Nodo restore doesnt restore the bootloader version.
I am going to downgrade to 4.x with this method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1362194
but I am wondering, can I downgrade from 4.x to 3.x?
because in order to install that http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1271118
I need to have SPL less that 4? isnt it?
thanks for your help
Yes if you've already restored your device to NoDo through Zune then you will still have SPL 5.xxx, the restore doesn't downgrade the SPL.
What downgrades the SPL is the re-update process. You have to re-update the device to Mango again. The key here is that when updating to Mango the device will reboot twice, once to downgrade the SPL to 4.xxx and once to install Mango...You have to stop the update process after Mango is installed and before the next update is applied which is the HTC Firmware Update. If that's installed then the SPL is upgraded to 5.xxx again.
After the Mango is installed and the SPL is downgraded to 4.xxx you can the flash a Pre-NoDo/NoDo rom to the device to downgrade the SPL to at or below 3.xxx (which is required to install XSPL = RSPL/HSPL)
One the SPL is downgraded to 3.xxx or lower you can Install XSPL
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16189671&postcount=1
After you install XSPL to the device then you can flash a custom rom of your choice.
thank you i have finally succeeded but it is really a hard process.
