I got my Device just a week ago.
Yesterday when im upgrading Rom, it crashed, i H reset sometimes but no use. Now i wanna reload RS (cause now the resutlt when i hold Power+reset is "GSM Error") and CE Rom but the bootloader version is 6.22 so Bootloader Patch didnt work. I downloaded the source code of bootloader patch, it seems that the patch only run when BL version is 5.17!?!?? When i push SD diagnostic card, only a "diagnostic" string appear but the Patch didnt run. So i still cant reload rom. Can developers check the Patch and repair the source code to compatible with 6.22 BL. i will thank you so much, now i dont know what to do with my Device. (
Any Suggestion pls email to : w[email protected] or [email protected]
Thanks again
Rgds,

What were you upgrading to and what method did you use?
Also were you upgrading both ROM and Radio stack?
Now i cant remember what i did (many step), i just wonder if there is a way to downgrade the bootloader or skip Card Key Check of the 6.22 Bootloader. Any Suggestion ? PLS.
Rgds,

Hi all!
I stuck in WM2003PE v. 4.00.10. Since I have been updated to it, my XDA cannot use phone function. Cannot receive calls and while I make a call... appear a popup menu from signal: "The operation failed". I so sad, I don't know what to do now :x . Anyone help me ???
My XDA is:
Wallaby Bootloader: 5.17
ROM version: 4.00.10 (I feel a vindictive hatred for it :x :x :x )
Radio Stack: 4.21
I'm from ASIA
As you known I can not downgrade from this ROM version by exe file.
I can not downgrade from this ROM version by SD card because my Bootloader is 5.17
XDAtools is a new tool. Can I use it to downgrade my XDA? Tell me method by detail, please (sorry, I don't want to sad again).
Thank for all
You CAN downgrade to say, 3.17 (Thats my TMobile version) if you have the nk.nbf file and use the XDA Tools.
You have to do it via the Wallaby Boot loader method... by placing the ROM on an SD card (via XDA Tools). To do this, I think that you need an SD card reader, as XDA Tools does not seem to do it via the phone...
There are instructions on how to do this as well as
A BIG WARNING about 5.17 boot loader.
I did it on my TMobile phone, with Bootloader 5.15.
So, do NOT follow the instructions I have stated here, read on this site and in the forum about how to flash your rom via the SD CARD Method.
That should do it for you..
BTW, when you write the ROM to the SD CArd, it WILL erase the SDCard data, so save off your stuff before you do this.

Thank jta
But, How do I have to downgrade my Bootloader from 5.17 to 5.15?
I tried XDAtools but no success
Anyone idea?
Hi VHS,
My XDA had bootloader 5.17 like yours, and I was stuck with T-Mo 4.00.10 also. I was able to correct the situation though, by doing the following:
I changed the bootloader with XDAtools from Jeff (it has 5.15 included), by running the “Fix broken bootloader” part of the program.
Then, I used SDcard/bootloader method to go back to 4.00.05, and successful. I knew I could use XDAtools also for doing this, but I preferred the SDcard/bootloader’s way then. Mind you that, using SDcard/bootloader’s way was very easy after you downgrade from 5.17 to 5.15. Since then, I could flash whichever rom I want, but not 4.00.10.
If you want to do the same, please read as much for the detail from the various forum here and carefully.
I hope this helps.
Hi beeheij!
Can you tell me the way in order to downgrade my bootloader from 5.17 to 5.15 by detail? I tried a lot of time but no success. I don't know why. And you tell me go back v.4.00.05 by SD Card.
I'm grateful to you very much
Has it occured to you that
"Help me... Help me... Help me... Anyone help me !!!"
is a really, really, really bad subject line ? I changed it to something which may get many more people to take a look and possibly help you...
If you can still use ActiveSync, you could try to use Jeff's version of the XDAtools to downdgrade the bootloader to 5.15, and work your way out from there...
I've managed to get myself stuck up a dead end.
My device: Orange UK spv c500.
SPL: 2.00.0013
OS: None!
I upgraded to wm2005 but despite updating the reg keys posted by subliminal I couldn't install the certificate I use to ActiveSync with my Exchange Server; so I decided to downgrade.
I immediately realized my first mistake - I didn't have a backup of the old ROM on SD. Instead I downloaded one from a link in one of the forums and used psdwrite to put it on my SD card. I ran the update, but it failed and the device wouldn't start.
My next mistake was to try and re-flash the 'phone with the latest Orange UK ROM (v4.2.1.1). What I'd forgotten was that this updates the bootloader at the same time.
The flash appeared to go fine, but on restart I'm stuck in the bootloader. When I attempt to re-flash again the summary in the RUU says "Image Version:" ie no image version present.
If I was still on a v1 bootloader I'd be able to run IU_SPL+PatchedRUU again to give me an IU mode bootloader. With a v2 bootloader I can run this as many times as I want, but it won't put a lower version on.
Without an IU mode bootloader I can't "r2sd spl" to use itsme's dowload tools. Without a working OS I cant use TyphoonNBFTools to flash the SPL.
Can you think of any other solution?
If there was someway to "con" the rom update process into installing an older version of the SPL I'd be OK. Alternatively if it was possible to change the version of the SPL in SPVDEVS-SPL.nbf I could get it on.
Thanks for your help.

Hello, I need some help from local guru`s please.
I tried to unlock X7500 with AthenaUnlocker by Olipro, from sticky.
In step2 (unlock radio) i had an communication error, probably I didnt cheked my battery, and the procces stopped in the middlle.
Now I got black screen, cannot sync with activesync, phone not start-up(((( at all.
Tryed hardreset, try to repeat the proccess in boot-mode, but no succes.
Unfortunatly I cant flash new Rom, cause this one is uniqe from operator with hebrew build-in. There is some other solution I can try? Maybe some repair tool?
Pls, any help will be useful. Tnx in advance!
br
Try to take out you memory card and sim card.then go to booloader mode a try to flash official ROM.
Yeah, i guess i can repair phone by flashing rom, but i asking if there is solution without flashing? Cause there is no oficcial rom by cellcom_il.. (((
Thanx anyway.
PS. sir, can u pls give me link where i can find oficcial roms? tnx
I used the wrong bootloader upgrade tool the first time and had the same problem - only the bootloader would come up and I thought I had bricked it. I had to re-flash with the stock ROM (available here: http://www.htcamerica.net/support/advantage7501/software-downloads.html ). Then used the bootloader upgrader ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=316846 ). Then you can upgrade the radio to 1.57.
Hi,
Artemis (not branded, CID locked), boots only to BootLoader.
Flashing official ROMs (either old or new one) from BL ends at 3% with errors #270 or #244.
Tried flashing _official_ ROMs from mSD card (2GB Sandisk, FAT32 formatted, ARTEIMG.nbh renamed, in root of the card) - "Checking SD contents" and straight to tri-color BL screen.
BL screen shows :
IPL 1.12.0001
SPL1.12.0000
Can connect with mtty, but I don't know what to do with it
Any help/ideas much appreciated, thanks.
t.
hey
maybe the rom you are trying to is not the one for it
try to get one from the the htc site it self
cuz you need to flash the rom with the original carrier and language as i think
and since you can inter to the boot loader maybe you can run the USPL
just an idea

Your SPL must be 1.11.0000 for you to flash any ROM you like.

It boots ONLY to BL, doesn't start normally, so I can't USPL/CID unlock it (would need ActiveSync connection for this, unless there's some other method).
That's why I try to load an official, signed rom (from HTC site) - but for some reason Artemis does not like it, neither from card, neither from BL, even though it is the official "unlocked" ROM.
t.
But you said that your Artemis is not official, so that's a problem.
Being a official ROM doesn't mean that you can flash it in all Artemis.
For example, if the language is different, then it can't be flashed either.
By "not branded" I meant it's plain HTC, not Orange, O2 or other operator.
That's the problem - a HTC unit does not accept HTC ROM (but used to, without problems).

Did u find a solution to this? i have the same isue
>Did u find a solution to this? i have the same isue
Nope. Spent several evenings searching for a hint, found nothing.
I hope somebody will find and share a way to unbrick it, but since Artemis is quite an old piece, and the gurus are busy with newer toys, I guess we need plenty of luck
imei-check.co.uk was mentioned few times, that they can provide rebuilt boot-data (?) to be flashed but there're no info about it on their www.
It seems that software version information is broken/lost in the device, so ANY attempt to flash ANY software into it will result in some kind of "wrong version" error.

I dropped the ROM on SD
Try that..and be patient..you should see upload status that way. I waited 30 minutes at the RGB Screen before rebooting. Also..make sure you unlock your phone 1st.
there is hundereds of %2 %3 cut off flashing artemis on earth. No solution even mtty and goldcard.
Worked???
Did it worked anyway? I have same issue..So Im just wondering if I have brick or I have to triyed to fix it
just flash it
i think u just flash it with the original rom.
this for dopod M700 official rom.

what type of artemis do u have?
just go to the official web.
www.htc.com
but u need to insert SN number to download it.
just run the exe file to upgrade.
Hey guys.
I was happy a few minutes ago when i saw that i can upgrade my legend to Froyo (Vodafone) but now my touchscreen isn´t working
Any ideas whats wrong ?
hard resest didn´t help.
I have to say that i startet earlier to downgrade my phone with the tut on this site and i wanted to root but i decided then not to root.
So i installed a RUU from shipped roms.The Ger vodafone one.
I want to use my phone again
Sorry for push but noone an idea?
I don´t know what to do now.
Can you re-install the upgrade? I'd start there...it could be some incompatibility between the rooting files and shipped ROM. You may also consider finishing the rooting procedure and then unroot if you don't want to stay rooted...
Sent from my HTC Legend using XDA App
the root and unroot idea is good but how can i do it ?
I can´t even start debugging mode.
You can do that by just using the optical trackball...settings/apps/development/
Sent from my HTC Legend using XDA App
i can´t even unlock my phone.
Press MENU to unlock the screen
When i Press MENU button or any other it doesn´t unlock the screen.
Edit: I can be for sure that the button is working because when i try to unlock my screen the light didn´t turn off when i press Menu button.
Edit: 2 . Got it now working.I called myself

hmm bad news...
none of my SD Cards are seen by the phone.
I don´t know why.
I also tried to enable Wifi (just to try) and it also doesn´t work.
is there now any chance to get it working ?
Can you check your kernel version (Settings->About phone->Software information)? I might know what's wrong.

Thanks for your help
That's what I thought but needed to be 100% sure. Your system was updated but boot.img was not. So you have new system and old kernel + initrd. Thatswhy things like Wi-Fi and touchscreen don't work. Can you tell me also which HBOOT are you presently using?
Hey i think your right.
i have 0.43.0001
Radio is 7.08.35.21
You´re a genius
but is it possible to solve the problem myself ?
You most probably have a bad block on boot partition thatswhy boot.img wasn't flashed (I guess). Try a customized kernel (in dev forum) which is smaller and fits boot partition with bad blocks too.
so you belive that i can fix it wothout sending it to the repair ?
That would be awsome
But i´m not sure how to install the kernel.
I found this kernel (it´s yours )

I also found this tut

But i can´t use this tut right? because my phone isn´t rooted.
So i searched and i saw this thread

I can´t install Root Manager so how can i do it ?
Have to say : Thank you for your help
Basically if you don't want to root, it would be much easier than following the above. First you need to grab Vodafone FroYo OTA update zip. Inside you will find firmware.zip. Rename it to LEGEIMG.zip and put it to your phone's sdcard. Reboot your phone into bootloader. It should find LEGEIMG.zip and start update. First it should upgrade HBOOT to 1.00 and then everything else except the system which is already the latest version.
thanks going to download. What shall i do now?
And if i can fix it i can root my phone.it´s okay.but how can i do it if i can´t create for example a goldcard?
Edit : Thaks going to try.
Edit 2 : Ok it loaded the zip but now i get an error.CID incorrect.Update Fail!
Does it mean that i easely have to create a coldcard ?
If you want to root afterwards, you should follow this guide...
What's your CID?
ok sorry im a little bit confused but with your help i see hope
So my first question is.
If i want to root later do i have to follow your guide from now on ?
2) I have an goldgard.img from my last try to downgrade my phone.Ist it ok if i format my SD card (the same as last time ) and Patch the Card?
3) i´m not sure what my Cid is.sorry.
Edit: You Are My GOD!
I had the right goldcard file for creating one.And now it is workiiing
Thank you Thank you Thank you
But one question is left.
How can i root now ? With your tut ? or the normal downgrade tut ? I´m not sure if i want to i would like to know .
