ERROR [244] INVALID MODEL ID how to get the solution. - Wing, P4350 Herald Upgrading

when I flash my t-mobile wing. the RUU shows ERROR [244] INVALID MODEL ID
is there any one can help me?
Thanks in advance

Is your device HardSPL'd?
and don't mind the spam guy. Actually, consider yourself lucky. Very rarely do they choose your post as a spam receptacle

Thanks mate, what do you means "Is your device HardSPL'd?"
IPL: 4.17.0002
SPL: 4.70.YANG
please check. why I can not flash my WING with that ROM
But I can flash my wing with os.nb
what's the problem?

asergs method bypasses the cid lock
check your pm

can you post Aserge solution here please?

aserg's method is an outdated way of flashing a rom. It was used in the earlier roms posted on the forum (like the one jimmysong tried to flash)
to use, you will need to find the cab pack for it. Check some of the older touch-it roms for the cabs (especially the non-wm6.1 ones like touchit 2)
from there, remove the os.nb file. Use nbh extract to extract the windows.nb file from an .nbh file that you get after you download a rom. rename that to os.nb. and place that in the folder that the original os.nb was in.
follow the instructions very closely and TO THE LETTER. When using aserg's method to flash, nothing will happen. Or so it seems. Be patient until the .bat prompts tell you that it's ok to hard reset your phone.

Same problem with Tmobile Wing, always gives me this error, i have Hardspl my device it has the 4.70Yang this file is the one i am using HTC_P4350_SPA_4.17.412.2_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship.exe , any help please?
Thanks in advance mates!

Try this;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=409425

You can't flash the stock RUU after HardSPL'ing your phone. (You both have HardSPL.) The RUU tries to write over the SPL (which is called HardSPL for a reason...) and it also expects the CID to match the default tmobile RUU.
If you want to go back to a stock ROM you have two options.
Extract the os.nb out of that RUU (which is what Rick GM is talking about) and recreate the NBH without the SPL or use USPL to bypass the CID check.

Extract the Rom file to a folder on your pc.
than download this file: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=30778&d=1160429997 and Extract it into the Rom folder.
than connect your charmer to pc and double click on "ROMUpdateUtility_Wizard_NoID.exe".
that should do the trick.

7.GOT TO LOVE IT!
Unfortunately, i can't do
3.Download Any Charmer ROM Utility.
4.Extract nk.nbf from the Charmer ROM Utility.
5.Place nk.nbf to the HTC_Charmer upgradeut_noid.
how can i extract nk.nbf
to get the nk.nbf, just open the executable rom package in winRAR

3. Download Charmer ROM from here: ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/Charmer/Shipped_ROMs/
4. Right click on the file you just downloaded and Extract to an empty folder on your desktop (you will find in that folder the nk.nbf you are looking for).
5. make sure your phone is connected to pc via activesync, copy the file I attached to this post (ROMUpdateUtility_Wizard_NoID.exe) in to this folder, and double click on it.
That should do the job.
It happened waaaaaaaa i'm so happy it is so different(for good)! Thank you all you 're my best friends!
Well, I want to upgrade my rom on htc charmer too. I understand how to, but I have the newest Czech WM5 in only-setup-file rom, how can I extract this ? Or I need only the RARed or ziped roms, so the setup files of roms are unusable ? thanks for help

Do you want to upgrade from Czech to WWE?
When you right click on the setup file, do you have the extract option?

Hi!
I think there is no hardspl for Charmer.You can CID unlock it easily with lokiwiz02,if your IPL,SPL is V1 or V2(f.e.:2.26).
Post the error code with noid or post a screenshot.

Hi!
Weird,because cooked ROMs usually can't be installed on CID locked devices.
Try to CID unlock it with lokiwiz02,then retry upgrade with AKU2.

Sending Back- want to flash to HTC ROM

I am using Summiters old 2.26 ROM, and have to send back in the phone, so I want to flash it to the HTC Rom from the HTC site, but just wondered if that would have issues or not.
My IPL SPL is 2.24 and the HTC ROM is dated newer then mine.
Think I will run into problems?
You could always flash the original rom with the noid RUU if you run into anything. Just place the nk.nbf in the same directory. And might I suggest that you CID-relock your phone prior to sending it to a service center as that procedure usually voids the warranty.
Wao
Good info thanks, although I will admit to being a noob at this so should I re-lock the device, then run the htc rom?
Your advice on the nk.nbf is strictly based on the HTC rom not loading?
Regarding the relock, where can I find a relock tool? I remember ages ago downloading and running an app called lockwiz, is that right?

yeah, lokiwiz does the unlocking but if you didn't save the output file I don't know how you are going to re-lock. Doubt they will even check that as long as you have a stock rom on the device though, so you should be ok.
So Then...
The original thought should suffice, using the stock ROM from the HTC should load ok.
I am kinda in the same boat. I need to send my 8125 in for repair. I currently have Molski's ROM. I tried to go back to the ROM for my phone from Cingular and I am getting an error 296 Upgrade only. I have tried both Cingular ROM and get the same error.
Would the nk.nbf file pretain to me? If so where do I find it and how do I use it?
Sorry - I am a noobie to flashing the ROM's so any help would be greatly appreciated.

I believe this is one of the Original Shipped ROM from Cingular.

How to cid unlock??

Hi.
I have a new HTC P4350 on english, but i want to put a spansh rom on it. I have read a lot and only found that i have to do a cid unlock, but i don´t know how to do it.
Someone can help me?
Thanks a lot
WIth a herald, you don't need to CID unlock.
You can use Aserg's method.
Search it in this forum.
Thanks
Let me see if i understand. I have to install the "Install ASerg_Policies.CAB", and then y can install the spanish RUU.
Thanks again
These are the instructions from ASERG's method that were included in the text file for the "Here is a TMO Wing Original ROM with TouchFlo added" ROM.
The order of installation OS:
1. To make full backup or only the data necessary to you on SD a card or PC.
2. ActiveSync should be connected and it is desirable as "Guest".
4. Establish ASerg_Policies.CAB (If version OS from ASerg is not established)
5. Start !UPGRADE_ROM.bat also expect end.
6. Make hard reset.
But i don´t have UPGRADE_ROM.bat only the official spanish RUU.
the UPGRADE_ROM.bat use a OS.nb.
Have i to extrack the OS.nb file form the offical RUU?
When i extracted the files from RUU_signed.nbh i got
ATHENA_IPL.nb
ExtendenRom.nb
G4IPL.nb
PrimarySplash.nb
SPL.nb
Radio.nb
Windows.nb
If i rename the windows.nb to OS.nb it will work?
Thanks again
wait....you want to install the RUU? Isn't it like an executable file (.exe)? You juct connect your phone to activesync and run the ruu executable.

He would then get a CID error, if im not mistaken.
Thats why he asked how to unlock the CID.
Use the search ! this question is been asked and answered almost 5000 times. This forum is getting loaded with more and more of the same questions ...
Go to IMEI-CHECK.CO.UK
I have read a lot and i dindn found nothing for herald.
I read that IMEI-CHECK.CO.UK cid unclok don´t work and when you upgrade your rom with a RUU you get a cid error.
Someone can tell me if i rename the windows.nb (file extrated form the spanish RUU) to OS.nb can i use the Upgrade_rom.bat file?
Yes you can, but one thing.. ATHENA_IPL.nb?? Did you extract the .nb from an Athena RUU? Please do NOT flash this lol. Just donwload the WM6 official ROM. Extract the windows.nb from the nbh. install ASerg policies cab and put Herald in Flight mode. Then run Epgrade_ROM.bat. good luck
Thanks. Yes ATHENA_IPL.nb was one of teh files. It wasent the ATHENA RUU.
I don know what happen but i will going to download the spanish ruu again.
I download HTC_P4350_SPA_4.17.412.2_4.1.13.44_02.94.90_Ship.exe again.
And extracted the files form RUU_signed.nbh en get the same files again. Is secure upload these files?
I downloadesd from here http://rapidshare.com/users/5EWZ4
The adress was in this forum bucause the HTP don´t work. When i enter on the download area nothing is avaliable.
ahh stupid me. I meant bootloader. woops.
If he has the spanish RUU, he doesn't need to do any flashing fun, no?
Try using these files if you have an RUU_signed.nbh
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1540938&postcount=133
Thanks. I do it without CID Unlock.
I only rename the windows.nb file fom the spanish RUU to OS.nb.
And use the asreg method.
I wait 5 minutes and my Herald now is in perfect spanish.
perfecto!
Gracias.
Solo falta el touch flo, epro no se cocinar Roms.
Así que esperare a ver si algun día sale.
Hi,
Is it possible to flash it to Chinese language?
Thanks.
i think so, but you need a chinese RUU to extrack the windows.nb file.

Dopod with 1.11.0001 IPL/SPL bricked

Hello,
I'm a new one on this great forum so first of all I'd like to send greetings to all of you.
I've searched and read a lot of posts on this forum as well as on another ones, but unfortunately I couldn't find a solution for my problems.
I have purchased a bricked Dopod with HTC logo on it. Previous owner told me that it was Dopod (I don't know exactly which one - C800 or C858) with a Chineese WM 5 OS. He was trying to make HardSPL but he didn't realize that it is recommended for Heralds with higher IPL/SPL.
Now I can only launch Bootloader (with IPL/SPL 1.11.0001) mode but still without oportunity to flash - even with RUU from Dopod (RUU_Herald_DOPODASIA_WWE_1.7.707.3_02.69.90_Ship_R.exe). This RUU seems to be too old for my Dopod. I couldn't find any other (newer) one.
Has anybody got RUU for Dopod suitable for 1.11.0001 IPL/SPL? Or maybe someone who owns working Dopod with IPL/SPL 1.11.0001 could make a backup of his ROM and we could change the mentioned RUU to be able to flash 1.11.0001 SPL?
What do you think?
I'm waiting for your responses and opinions.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Martin.
Hello again.
I have some new ideas.
Could someone verify if I'm on the right track?
I have used NBHextract tool to extract .nbh file from RUU_Herald_DOPODASIA_WWE_1.7.707.3_02.69.90_Ship_R.exe and realized that there are 2 .nb files which are SPL and IPL for my DOPOD. During editing those 2 files we can notice that they include "1.09.0001" string. File 01_G4IPL.nb includes only one "1.09.0001" string and file 00_G4SPL.nb includes just two "1.09.0001" strings.
What if I'll change those strings to "1.11.0001", as it's shown now in the bootloader on my device, and than recompile .nbh file for using in RUU process...
Will it work without total bricking my DOPOD?

as i know it, all the spl flashing methods other than original RUU (it needs to be signed) require a 4+ SPL/IPL. I would just send it in. Changing the string won't work because it's not identified by name but function
I'm just wondering how the ROMUpdateUtility is checking if dedicated .nbh suits to current SPL and IPL. As I've mentioned above, I've tried to use official DOPOD Herald RUU (with SPL/IPL 1.09.0001 included) and it doesn't suits my device with 1.11.0001. Why? CID should be the same and the only differences are in SPL and IPL. As it's official RUU I thought it would work even on my device with higher SIPL/IPL. When I realize that it doesn't work I'm wondering if the way with changing the SPL and IPL strings in .nbh file will do the job.
Now I think that the reason of non flashing, even with official RUU, could be corrupted CID-block after using HardSPL with low IPL/SPL. I've read thread about similar problem with Wizard. The question is: how to restore the CID block in our bricked devices? I'm not even sure if this theory with CID-block is a reason...
What do you think about such a trick:
- Run RUU on someone's working HTC device but only until the moment, when it wants you to click the last button to finally proceed with flashing. (This step is to let RUU to know that this RUU is correctly dedicated to our device). It's a kind of fake for RUU, cause our CID doesn't much the CID of ROM included in RUU.
- Next disconnect working device from the USB and connect your bricked device with launched bootloader mode
- Next click the final button to launch flashing in RUU application. If the process of CID matching was done before thit step, the flasher should start and let us flash our bricked device. But I'm sceptic to this solution. If it was so trivial, everyone could flash his device with different ROMs so easy...
I can't try this trick cause I don't have working HTC. What do you think? Will it work or not?

Xplode help me...

xplode,
can you help me downgrade my BA (O2 Xda iis)??
this is the ROM:
wm6.5 (build 21169.5)
MODEL NO.: PH20B
i want to downgrade it to its default ROM wm2003 SE...
but i can't remember it's rom version...i only know that it was from O2 UK...
i downloaded the O2 UK 1.40.242...
but when I tried, it said "Country ID Error"...
may I should try the other O2 UK rom...
could you give tips or tell what's wrong?
thanks in advanced...
sorry if this disturbs you...
once you had a cooked rom from this forum, the country id changes to WWE. that's why on the first attempt to upgrade, many people experience a country id error.
what you have to do is, downgrade the same way you upgrade, don't just click the big .exe file, unpack it, and put the maupgradeut_noid in there and put your device into bootloader mode before starting the actual downgrade. that way you bypass the check of the device id, country id a.s.o
thanks chef!!!
but how will I unpack it?
usually, when you download the official shipped rom from your carrier or from xplode's firmware archive. it will come as one exe file of forty something MB. but that is not an exe like a normal executable, it is a self-extracting archive, which can also be extracted manually, but right clicking it, and then saying extract here or something similar, depending on the zip program you have installed, like winrar, or 7zip. and in that folder you will find the official RUU (with baupgradeut) and the roms nk.nbf (wm2003 rom), ms_.nbf (the extrom) and radio_.nbf (the radio rom).
and there you can start customizing.
1st you need the maupgradeut_noid, which you used to upgrade your device, since that bypasses some security features, like the country id, you should also think about whether or not to flash the old radio, if you don't want it, just delete it from the folder, same thing for the extrom.
thanks...
I've extracted the file...
will I just do the same procedure as I did when I upgraded my BA?
put my BA to bootloader mode, run the maupgradeut_noid then let the program do the work?
exactly!
you know, when you first upgraded the device from wm2003 in your local language with your country code to an english WWE wm6.5 you changed the country code of the device, that is why, on the way back, you need to bypass the check again.
but just as you said, bootloader mode and maupgradeut_noid do the trick.
