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 there everyone
Greetings from Paris
I encountered the same problem. The file was not there anylonger. Then I saw this post, and its reply. I downloaded the file on http://download.yousendit.com/FF900F2908E9D05B which worked fine.
I ran the CUSTOM__RUU_Wizard_1050412_WWE_101_11210_WWE.exe file.
So far so good, and then the process crashed at 98%. Something about a file in outlook. I started the whole process again, and now it just stalls at 98%. No error message. NOthing. Anybody have any idea what I should do now...
I have an Orange SPV 3000. I can put the new rom back but I wanted to do a cid unlock, before doing so. It seems to be necessary to be able to try out different roms...
Thanks.

I never have to downgrade before I do the CID unlocked. I've tried with two MDA and never encountered any problem. You will only need to downgrade if you CANNOT CID unlocked; otherwise, don't bother to downgrade.
thats just the point. I cant do the cid unlock... And I suspect that the rom version has something to do with it. Anyway, thats what I read everywhere on this site. So I am still looking for a working link to Button 1.05 ?

When downgrading with this ROM...it will stall at 98% for a few minutes...be patient. To confirm that the ROM I posted was legit...I used it again myself and worked fine. Then to make sure it wasn't just me...I had 2 other people tell me they used it and worked fine for them as well.
Don't know what to tell you as this is the ROM that was hosted on the FTP site for a long time.
shell tool
If your having trouble flashing a rom the shell tool posted on the g4 threads lets you flash any rom you wish onto your phone i have a g4 cid locked and using the tool i can swap my roms every day if i wished to with no hassle

Get yourself a signature. Is your Wizard G3 or G4.
I think that my wizard is a G3. I just added my signature.
Still looking for the mysterious file that apparently is no longer posted on this site.
thanks for any info.
i need a rapdishare or megauploads link to where i can download a 1.xx ROM for my G3 Qtek 9100 (Tmobile with imate 2.21 ROM).
I want to upgrade to wm6 and need to have a backup plan if it fails

If you decide to do it, make sure you have a back up option.
Do a search on PirateBay for it. Its seeded...

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.

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'
Please not that this is my first guide on here and I'll make it as easy to understand as much as possible.
This has been tested on a Vodaphone branded HD Mini. Please reply to this post if this has worked on a different branded phone.
This is to help people to Unbrand their HD Mini's.
Have you managed to flash it to the latest ROM? If not you need to do the following:
•Download the SSPL_RUU.exe and put it into an empty folder (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=694409)
•Add the RUU_signed.nbh that you want to flash to your device into the same folder (http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Pho...adio_Signed_32.2803.05.06_0.63.05.36_Ship.exe) Assuming you want Western Europe ROM. You can use a different ROM if you want
•Connect your HD Mini to your PC. Making sure you use ActiveSync
•Run SSPL_RUU.exe and following the onscreen propmts.
Once done your phone will reboot. Next is to flash a Radio ROM.
•Move your ROM from the folder which contains the SSPL_RUU.exe
•Using the ROM that you just used Extract it to a location of your choice by using winRAR. Look for
Radio_32.2806.05.06_0.63.05.40 and rename it to PHOTIMG.nbh
•Place PHOTIMG.nbh into the same folder as SSPL_RUU.exe and flash once again
•Once done you will have a unbranded HD Mini as if you bought it like that. This worked on my Vodaphone
branded HD Mini and worked a charm.
I'd like to thank DarkForcesTeam for the SSPL_RUU.exe and the rest of the developers that have made
this possible. Without them we would be stuck with these branded phones.
Could the Admins place this as a sticky please. Many Thanks
The phone hard-resets after radio flash ? I want to flash only the radio.
Thanks for your guide, wardy. Great explanation.
But it doesn't work with my HD mini.
It stays at 0% for quite a long time. Afterwards, there's an error saying something about a wrong ID.
I'm afraid I'll have to wait for a HD mini hardspl

As long as you are using the SSPL_RUU.exe to flash only the radio & renaming then you can flash it. Yes after the flash the phone does hard-reset.
Which part does it stay on? Please list the error exactly as it appears so that I can help you further.
If its ''Error 294, Invalid Vendor ID'' then download PHO03693.exe over to your device and install it then try to flash the radio again.

Thanks, I installed PHO03693.exe now. What happened afterwards:
-The error I get when I try to install any ROM via “DFT_SSPL_MINI” is “[202] Connection error”.
-If I enter boot mode via my endkey app and install via “DFT_SSPL_MINI” after that, it ends with “Error [262]: Update error”. When I click “view document”, it says: “dummy file”.
-If I try to install official HTC ROM “RUU_Photon_HTC_Europe_1.36.401.1_Radio_Signed_32.2803.05.06_0.63.05.36_Ship”, I get “Error [294] invalid vender ID”
Not sure about that error code. Have you tried doing a hard-reset first then trying to flash the ROM. If your using Windows Vista or Windows 7 then try running SSPL_RUU.exe as Administrator. Hope this helps

I tried both Windows 7 and XP as administrator.
When I'm doing hard-reset, I have to install PHO03693.exe afterwards again. So I did.
It has confused me now mate :$ You'll be better waiting for the HSPL instead. Hopefully it won't be too long now for it.
I have a cracked hd mini with vodafone branding..........i wanted to install the latest official rom......but i'm unable to do so........also i'm new to all this stuff can anybody please help me with this.........thanks
Hi, I just extracted the ROM "RUU_Photon_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.36.707.3_Radio_Signed_32.2803.05.06_0.63.05.36_Ship.exe" with WINRAR, but I don't seem to find the Radio file inside, I only see the "RUU_signed.nbh" file which I intend to update, am I looking at the right place?
Thanks

Found the file now, download the latest HTC update http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=314&cat=0&dl_id=1024 & you can extract the file from there.

Managed to carry out the Radio ROM update with an O2 branded phone.
However the Radio rom listed is still the old one (0.63.05.18)
The update process appeared to take but the radio ROM has remained the same. So take from that what you will?!
