I have a HTC HD7 which was earlier given by HTC's PR agency for testing. The phone is preproduction, has an early OS version. It had a lot of problems, but now it does not even work, the OS is not booting, hard reset does not work.
I tried to upgrade ROM, but all the time received error 296.
Can anybody give a solution?

Hey, I tried to go from TouchFlo 1.1 to the new 2.0 and bricked my phone, it just got stuck in the process even though I followed all steps.
Now, I bought my device in Germany at an O2 Shop, so its German language with the O2 Bubbles and WM6.
There is no original RUU Rom on the O2 Website so I am still stuck on the brubble screen.
I heard there is no way of unbricking the phone unless o2 releases a RUU for the phone, is that generally true? Should I just get it reprogrammed and pay cash for that
I have seen a post with a http://rapidshare.com/files/32745275/os62.nb file that is apparently extracted from the o2 Wm6 Rom, would that do any good.
Any options??
Kind regards
Pretty much. Just send it back. Is it under warranty?
EIther way, you're completely and totally SOL
Yeah I still got it covered, are they not going to release A RUU for the terra?
I mean, this is Bull****
Guys, I called the o2 support and they say that there is no rom currently for the XDA terra and there is also no annoucement of any coming so it sucks really. I am stuck with a brick in the states where I cannot send it in for repair.
There must be a way to flash it and override the Vendor ID problem isn't there. I can get into the bootloader it's just that I have to somehow flash a new one on there.
Anyone any suggestions?
I am deeply saddened and need help, I need my phone back please understand. I'll try anything!
hi everybody,
When I'm trying to upgrade my wizard, the process always stop at 99%.
I have try with several rom and it's always the same kind of problem. These just one Rom that is working the Wizard_Love_2.26.10.2.
Do someone have any clue of how to upgrade my phone with a wm6 rom?
Thank's a lot
How long have you waited? I've seen it sometimes take 10 minutes or something until it finished..
The windows sofware send me an error and then the update stop..
Your phone is locked. I had the same error, also need to lower your Rom.
I already have flashed my rom to a lowest one for instance "WM5SE rev 4.0 - WM5 without stylus but style" (this one work without any kind of problem). Then I have tryed to update with a WM6 one and it stop at 99% or I have the message "Invalid upgrade toll".
Do someone have had the same kind of pbl and solved it?
thank's a million
i had the same problem a few days ago and all i did was downgrade it to buttons rom and then upgrade it to the tomobile2.26 and everything installed correctly.
At the point I am I need the help of experienced Users from the community.
I flashed a original HTC Wings (S730) with WM 6.1 ROM. It runs perfectly until I got a hardware problem (radio) . This is the reason I have to send it back to the official service.
Therefore I tried to go back to an official ROM from the http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=WINGS_WM61_Alcaline
At first I flashed the earlier backuped Bootloder via sspl-0.91-wings.exe. This seems to be okay. But as I tried to flash an official ROM from the site mentioned above, during the flashing process I've got the note 'ERROR 294 Invalid vendor ID'. What was wrong? Did I forget any step?
Please, is there anyone who can describe the correct way back to 'warranty' for a newbie?
Thanx a lot.
have you tried all the ROM's? there is one prerelease and two release ROM's.. try both of the release roms, they might be for different production models/locations.
I tried both official released ROM's (signed as 'Ship'), not the prerelease version.
and if you first flash the shiped rom (with hardspl) and when done flash the back-up of the spl
With reference to an earlier statement of bigflavour in the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=383617&page=17
I flashed back the original SPL at first.
Too bad It seems to be that I have a new problem now. Few minutes ago I have tried to reinstall hardSPL on the device via the well known sspl-0.91-wings.exe running on the Wings. But as I started the sspl, the device shows on the display that 'Access denied....is not digitally signed with a trusted certificate'.
Thereupon I thought I had to 'application_unlock' the device. After running the SDA_App...Unlock on my PC the display message shows succesful unlocking process. B U T, the sspl doesn't run as before.
Now, I'm totally confused. What has happened??
It's flavor, and unfortunately, I have no idea how to help you.
Probably tried the European english's spelling hehe.
Also This does seem like an odd problem, have you tried for kicks doing the factory reset to see if it will reset some of the registry and maybe fix your issues? I dont know anything about the spl's since I have no need to upgrade to 6.1, I wouldnt imagine it causing any more damage but again I dont know what all was done. I havnt followed those threads for a long time.
Thanx a lot. Apparently, the hint to make a hard reset hits the mark. Now I flashed back the HardSPL. So I'm back at the starting line . Does anyone knows if the official ROM from the http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index..._WM61_Alcaline is the latest one and can I use it for the warranty return?
Or should I look for an original German HTC ROM?
I was a little bit to fast. I will need a German ROM definitely, because the ROM from the Wiki doesn't include a the german language option.
Is there anyone who can help me with a original HTC S730 ROM for the german market?
Thank you in advance.
Hallo HSN,
if you give me a introduction how I backup my ROM, you can have my one. I own a German HTC S730. But I am confused when I read all threads about flashing etc....
One page introduction how to back up and you can have my one.
But I think that the Repair center here in Germany, doesn't care about the Rom you have installed.
Hi all,
I have TYTN II which was bought in duty free and it is not connected to any network.
ROM Version: 1.81.415.4 WWE
ROM Date: 10/29/07
Radio Version: 1.27.15.32
Protocol Version: 22.51.88.13H
Bootloader (TriColor) screen showing following:
KAIS130
SPL-1.93.0000
CPLD-8
Serial
Please let me know if i can upgrade my rom to the latest one HTC TyTN II-RUU_Kaiser_HTC_WWE_3.28.405.0_radio_sign_25.83.40.02_1.65.17.56_Ship.exe
which i downloaded directly from the HTC but without previously upgrading with HardSPL 1?
Thanks
Yes but why
You don't need to install hardSPL to run the HTC official upgrades from an existing official HTC installation. It's a very straightforward process but be aware many people have found the HTC official TyTN II Windows Mobile 6.1 upgraded ROM to offer deteriorated GPS performance with times to get a satellite lock taking significantly longer. I also found the latest WM 6.1 ROM and Radio combination (what you're looking at upgrading to) to contain quite a few bugs that weren't even in the original WM 6.0 ROM. If you upgrade and don't like it, it's not a straightforward process to put it back again (the HTC repair centre reverted my TyTN II) so make sure it's what you really want.
***Edit*** If your new ROM is for a different region eg Europe vs South East Asia, the ROM *may not be accepted either (I've never tried but I know flashing different languages is a definite nono the 'official' way). If the HTC Website offered up this ROM for your serial no, it should flash through ok.
Thank you for prompt answer Flying Kiwi ,
I have to try upgrading ROM to the latest one in order to try fixing problem i am facing described in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=434884
Now, is it worth trying to upgrade to the latest ROM or my problem is of hardware nature?
Thanks
ROM flashing to fix such an issue not advisable

I've replied to that thread but I strongly suggest you don't go down the path of flashing a new ROM (even if you could) to fix a problem present in the device with an HTC official setup like this. It's time to call HTC and (possibly) send it off for Warranty investigation if you have correctly prepared the desktop PCs first. I'm sure that HTC wouldn't release a ROM which had issues that significant on a device so I'm sure the problem is not with the ROM itself.
gps software upgrade
hi
i have a problem that while purchasing my tyttn 2 the rom installed doesnt have the gps software . any body can provide me with a serial for another fone that can get me the software as while providing my serial they are giving me the update of the middle east which doesnt include the software
Ok ive had my HTC Tytan II for about 1 year now on Orange.
(If it makes any difference Im a UK member)
And other than using it as a phone and a gps (and the odd game of solitare) thats all ive managed.
So am a complete novice when it comes to tweeking etc.
Now recently ive my touchscreen stoped working - for about a week.
Then it started working for about a week,
then stopped for another week
and is now working again.
A friend who also has a HTC - told me to hard reset it - to see if it would solve the problem.
Anyway its done, and currently works fine (hoping its not the touchsceen thats gone, just a software bug!)
My OS is Mobile 6
CE OS 5.2.1620 (Build 18125.0.4.2)
Now I want to update the WM OS software to the latest version, but went to HTC website to try and do it and basically said i couldnt download it.
So Where can I get it from?
How do I do it?

You need to get the update from Orange, on branded phones it is upto the carrier to ask for and issue rom updates.
But since I am sure that Oranges;s license with M$for WM 6.1 has long run out. I am sure it is no longer available.
So at this point any upgrade will have to come by way of the " unlock " and " custom flash " route.
