Hi
I tried upgrading to the rom below
Custom_RUU_Wizard_1050402_101_11210_O2_ENG_CID.exe
but it made my imate totally sluggish and really slow, especially when opening mesages etc. I decided I wanted to revert back to the original imate ROM but when I was installing it it failed before even getting to 1%
It stayed at the point where my k-jam was red blue green etc
Anyone suggest why this might be the case?
Also can someone explain what the CID unlocker is used for? Does it allow you to 'downgrade' ROMs?
Thanks for your help guys. I'm still quite new to this

CID unlockeris is needed to be able load roms that are not made for your phone... like MDA Vario without CID unlocker cant take rom that was made for Qtec and other way...
try RUU_Prodigy_1060701_101_11310_QTEK_WWE_Ship.exe
its the best rom for me... make sure you run CID unlocker first and after WM5 loaded hit reset on your phone so it wont load cabs from extended rom (if you dont want them)

I think you will know what to do, so please tell me... I'm flashing my o2 xda mini S and I have now run out of time, I used all my spare time today (2 hours) trying to flash the ROM with RUU_Prodigy_1060701_101_11310_QTEK_WWE_Ship but I get the error.
So what do I need to do - how to remove the vendor lock(?) and where to get the program that can do it, if there is one? And is the above ROM okay? I want to get rid of the stupid o2 programs and get into a clean version of Windows Mobile. And of course, the additional speed that hopefully comes with a new ROM is also appreciated
Please explain clearly, I have very little time nowadays to fiddle with these sort of problems
Thanks!
EDIT: Here is the ROM I have in there now: 1.5.4.2 and it's the o2 original ROM that came preinstalled with the phone... that's all I know.

Unlock it first !
Download CID Unlock (search here on this site), then unlock it and then fell free to install Qtek rom.
BB
HTC Diamond "Invalid Vendor"
After many tries, on a phone that I knew was unlocked I was able to download the new update by simply turning off the firewall...My advice is try that first, and see if you can get the update on your phone.

To unlock the wizard you need to do three things.
1. Flash the button rom
2. Run Lokiwiz
3. Flash your original rom
Here is a rar archive with all the programs you need
http://rapidshare.com/files/53377946/Wizard__CID___Sim_Unlocker.rar
password for file is scousemartin
extract it then flash the button rom CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe then run lokiwiz.bat
once it has told you that you have successfully cid unlocked it then you can flash your o2 rom or the one i have supplied in the rar archive, which i think, but cant exactly remember is the same rom you now have. After flashing the o2 rom you can flash any rom you want , as long as it is designed for the wizard,of course
heres a link to a how to for lokiwiz

Hi Guys,
i consider myself relatively experienced at flashing HTC devices having been using and upgrading for a few years but i've run into an issue on my CID locked G4. i upgraded to WM6 without issue and i tried to revert back to my O2 rom, the flash failed and i'm now stuck at the splash screen. I've tried to flash the original ROM from boot loader but i get a 101 error unable to connect(can see it in device manager). as i'm using vista i did a search and found some instructions and driver files but i get the same result. the only thing i can think of now is to CID unlock but i'm not sure it will help (unless it allows me to do the SD card restore). any ideas guys?
IPL:2.21.001
SPL:2.21.001
GSM:02.25.11
OS:10.1.0.811
OK., what you need to do is use a PC with XP, because i have read that vista PC's can get you into a lot of trouble. When you are at an XP PC, follow the instructions in my previous post
( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=313354 ).
When you flashed the original ROM, and you succeeded in doing so, think real hard if you still want to upgrade to a new ROM.
If you still want to do that, stick to a PC with XP installed (no vista!).
If you did reflash a good ROM into your HTC you'll be one step closer to upgrading your ROM.
Read this post thourougly :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298613
as this will help you in case you didn't CID unlock your device.
(thanks vippie; this is the clearest walktrough i could find!)
If you are really sure you CID unlocked your device, you can flash your device to any ROM you think is useful to you.
If your device is really CID unlocked, you should be able to flash any ROM that is posted on this forum.
I know that it is that easy, because i have tried every WM6 ROM that is posted on this forum
good luck, and i hope in the end you will have the ROM that you want....
thanks. my device IS CID LOCKED and i've tried to flash it from 2 XP machines so it is looking like its a brick thanks anyway.
for sale wizard with pretty 3 colour screen - sold as seen!!!
One thing you can try is use another USB to mini USB cable, i have had one cable that didn't connect really well.
Sometimes it worked but if i moved my phone the connection went down.
I just thought of that because it was a while ago that this happened - I threw away the faulty cable and had no problems after that.
tried 3 different cables too

If you have a memory card take it out. Right click on ActiveSync and go to connection settings. Uncheck allow usb connections then try to flash. With windows XP...
tried to flash on a win2K machine (4 pc's thats the only one thats not vista) still get error 101 on the original O2 rom and 300 on the wizard love rom.
still no joy anyone have any ideas???

Hey Chaps,
Just thought earlier today i'd have a go at upgrading my phone with the new HTC firmware for my Vodafone Kaiser. First i tried it on it's own only to find the 'vendor' had blocked the upgrade, then i ran the HARDSPL software, when it rebooted my phone to the tri-colour screen i stopped pressing enter on the batch file and ran the HTC upgrade again! ... success - sort of; the upgrade got to 15% and stopped with a connection error (my usb's dodgy i think), then when the phone rebooted to the tri-colour boot loader it'd a) no longer accept the HTC Rom (vendor thing again) and b) become irritatingly broken.
Is it possible to flash an older vodafone rom to the device? if so, where can i find such a beast. Or does anyone know of any devilish ways to put the new rom on using the bog standard bootloader?
Thanks in advance big time to any clever phone experts who can de-brick my... er... brick
Dan.
your supposed to install hardspl before upgrading it if you try it on its own it will brick it at least thats what i heard from the stickies
azazelx, he has hardSPL installed, anyway.
@JimmyJangle: flash via microSD card. [url="http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=KaiserSDFlash" URL]Read here.[/url]
You need winrar to extract file nbh from the shipped ROM.exe.
Hmm, i don't think i do have HardSPL actually installed,
When i saw the tricolour screen come up with different version information I stopped that batch file that was installing HARDSPL (impatiently) and started the HTC one (which failed at 15%). So now i (think) i have a phone with no firmware and the bootloader says:
KAIS130
SPL-1.56.0000
CPLD=8
I reckon if i can find a vodafone made rom the bootloader'll let me install it.
Any idea where i could find one?
What is ur orginal shipped ROM?
Your solution now is flash back the orginal ROM by using microSD card method I mentioned above, install HardSPL succesfully, then flash whatever ROM you prefer.
Hey Nghiem,
Thanks for the help, that link doesn't go anywhere though.
Also, wouldn't i need the original rom from somewhere in order to do that?
Thanks,
Dan
where did you buy the phone e.g vodafone, orange, etc...so I can tell you the original ROM? Because you phone CID is not unlock, hence you must flash the back the shippied one.
Get the WM 6.1 Vodaphone official here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365058
Hi,
I got the phone from Vodafone in the UK.
It had WM5 on it... erm, that's it.
I've just beem trying to load original voda roms back on to it but it's not happy - i don't know if they really are the originals though, one says 'reconstructed'.
Dan
Actually, that was the rom i tried and it came up with the Vendor ID error.
Dan.
Link on post #6 is the official not reconstructed. How about download directly from Vodafone website? It's strange when you have carrier ID block even with its ROM. Also, try reconstructed ROM listed here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1586817&postcount=2
Search for mtty, see if it can help you out.
MTTY saved the day!
Only 3 hours of my life lost!
Thanks,
Dan
Cheers. Don't forget to flash HardSPL and read the wiki before doing anything.
hey, im new to all this, the tutorials dont make sense to me, atm i know my device is:
-tmobile mda vario
-unlocked
-G4
and is rom verion 3.8.2.1 wwe
i tried to upgrade it with SNN Diamond edition, but when ever i tried this, i got to the part where it starts to flash, the mda vario screen goes to the screen with the three colors but then on my laptop it just crashes and seys something about it is not responding and you have to close it, i have tried with other roms, but same thing occurs
can someone plz help meee
use softspl
ok thanks, will it work with unlocked pdas?
need help agen lool
i tried updating the rom with TNT,19213 professional
and error [300] invalid update tool occured
it says this update utility cannot be used on your pda phone.please get newer update utiltiy plz plz help
You have to use SoftSPL, you can get it HERE
In this folder, you copy the "nk.nbf" of your favourite WM6 (and only this file), then start with "START-sSPL.exe" (make sure you're connected via ActiveSync).
When you read this here before, you know everything you need!
Probably you are not following the instructions and doing it correctly,try to go according to the guide,if it still doesn't work,it sometimes happens that SoftSPL fails,than you better do it through 'HardSPL'
sorry if this post seems to be a repeat , but i tried the search option and the results were not fruitful
a friend of mine , while trying to upgrade to a TNT ROM , didn't HardSPLed the device first , and successfully changed the ROM of the device , now it is stuck on the blue screen with SPL and IPL versions , and no response . for some reason , the device can go to bootloader mode , but it can not be reflashed , and it does not respond to a hard reset command.
please advise on what to do
regards
When it is in the bootloader mode, and connected via USB, is there a little USB icon in the bottom left? If so, simply flash your phones carrier ROM and all should be fine with it again. You can then apply HardSPL and flash to the TNT or any other ROM that you want to. Is your device a G3 or G4 by the way? What are the numbers after IPL and SPL?
well my friend says that the USB icon is visible there , and the device was indeed a G4. the thing is , what exactly should he do , in order to flash the ROM , since non of imate roms work for it. should he use any special software?
i'll greatly appreciate your help
Is he using Vista or XP?
he is using Windows XP , could it be the PC OS that caused interference?
Well, only if it is Vista does it really matter. He needs to get ahold of an original carrier ROM, such as the O2, or T-Mobile one and flash it to his phone, then HardSPL it, then upgrade to 6 or 6.1.
Download and flash Wizard_love Rom,it might do the trick,then HardSPL and upgrade to any wm6 or 6.1 rom.
What exact error it gives while flashing imate official rom ?
well the wizard has been an imate ,and it was flashed with an Original imate ROM already , but no success , any other suggestions?
thanks again
