It might be a duplicated topic but I do search on the forum and need some or your kindly help, xda-developers members.
I bought my HTC P3300 from ebay and it was already in English. A strange thing that it had French Extended ROM : 1.12.406.101. The rest is exact to the ART_HTCWWE_11240501_026790_WWE_Ship ROM (ROM : 1.12.405.1 9/12/06, Bootloader : 1.12.0000, Radio : 02.67.90)
Yesterday, when upgrading to PDAMobiz lite version, I accidentally unplug the device then now it turns to brick. No futher going except HTC boot screen with IPL 1.12.0001, SPL 1.12.0000, GSM 02.67.90, OS 1.28.0.0.
I try to put my phone into bootloader mode (triple color screen) and update with the Ship ROM downloaded from xda FTP. Unfortunately, all these ROMs result in "Invalid Model ID" or "Invalid Vendor ID" after 2% of progress then automatically reboot.
I understand that my phone is not unlocked, that procedure I have to do beforehand with the help of IMEICHECK. But now it is no use because my phone is a brick. That supprise me is why can not I go back with the WWE Ship ROM version that I already seen on my phone.
So I suspect that
1. My phone is HTC P3300 French version then the ebay buyer change to English UI before selling it to me
2. Because of unplug the phone while upgrading, part of bootloader of my phone was corrupted.
My solution can be
1. Send the phone to IMEICHECK because they have ability to open the hardware and re-flash the ROM directly. But it costs a lot of money and time because I have to pay for the fee, tax, and shipping.
2. Waiting for some kind people to share their French ROM of HTC P3300 so I can give a try on this. So please, if anyone owe a HTC P3300 French version please send me your dumped ROM ([email protected]) or let me know where can I get it. I will be appriciated that.
And to the xda-developers members, could you give me some more advices in this case, I was strugling with that for nearly 2 days. Thanks very much.

During the flash your security area on a device, including CID has been corrupted.
Actually none of image will flash on this device.
CID area must be restored in order to flash device. Yes, IMEI-CHECK recalculate all security area and flash it to device with help of modified spl loaded in a memory. But this is done from windows. In your case, you are in bootloader and you can not load modified spl.
Only one solution I see is to use jtag interface, but not sure that pins are known on artemis motherbord for jtag interface. With jtag you can load modified spl.
Simple way is just to send device to service center.
best regards,
Hic no choice. I am unable to open this device to access through jtag interface. Do you have any ideas ?

Send it cervice centre or Imecheck
@victoradjei: that's good idea. Could you please tell me which one is better ? Imeicheck or HTC service center ?
I live in Australia and I bought this phone from ebay, which service center (Europe, Taiwan ..) should I sent my device to?
I have talked with the guy in Imeicheck and he asure that this problem can be solved. However, have any one in xda-developers had experience with Imeicheck? Are they good at this kind of repair? How about their reputation?
Thanks very much

what's the make/model of your phone,is it T-mobile Mda,At&TT cingular 8125,Qtek 9100, or O2 xda minis S.You can find all the official stock Roms here in this link,download the specific official Rom of your phones make and flash in the bootloaders mode.If you are using any Sdcard or miniSd card,remove it before flashing and get the battery fully charged with wall charger before starting to flash.

I don't know what is my device opertator because i bought it from second-hand...
Maybe should i try flashing all of these rom until that it will work? i have G3 and i saw that these rom are for G4, Is that OK?

Probably, but not definitely. Most will have something in their respective threads to tell you if they were tested on G3 or not. It's good to be alert about this, though, because if you are successful in flashing to the wrong ROM, you could end up with an expensive brick.

all official stock roms are basically for both G3 and G4 devices,they are safe for both,they include IPL/SPL for both the devices,while flashing an official rom,it will determine the version and will only flash those ipl/spl which are suitable for that version,so its safe to flash official rom to either a G3 or G4 phone.
cheers!
I having problem to flash these roms..
I don't know my device original operator at all...
Maybe should i try the Mini SD backup solution from here:

I downloaded and installed that ROM - It's 1.14 not 1.19!!
Where do these get released? Or haven't they been released?
I'm intrigued to find where the latest HTC Firmware will appear if Orange get round to messing with it.
That is why you are here -----
It is due to the fact that carriers don't upgrade and want you to run out of contract and buy a new toy (thus with a new rom).
This is why we cook roms (off the new toys for old boys).
I have yet to see an offical GER (german rom) come out from my or any other carrier including HTC (who are not carriers).
Now after saying all that wiki does have a orange ship.exe
Still unsure about flashing the ROM
Hi,
So the ROM supplied in the above links will upgrade the Orange ROM and keep all the horrible things that Orange have done to the handset to cripple it.
I only ask as my phone is company supplied and I do not want to screw up the handset.
My ROM is 1.19.61.1 WWE and the operator version is 34.119.1.611.
Forgive my ignorance about these matters
Chris
it´s very simple: if you like to keep your device at it is, there´s no need to flash another rom. if you like to get rid of that orange rom and take part of the better ones install one of the very good rom available here.

I also want to get rid of my Orange ROM. I have read the wikis and am confident enough to be able to do it. One thing I am unsure about is, the ROM I would like to try is Panosha`s Black Pearl but as I understand it, it is based on a 1.56 ROM. and my ROM is 1.19.61.1. I can get USPL onto my TouchHD but am unsure as whether I can flash Panosha`s ROM onto my device without first flashing a 1.56 ROM. I`ve searched the Orange website and at the moment there is no 1.56 ROM.
If you are going to flash a cooked rom, then why panic about flashing the stock 1.54/1.56 roms first.
I`m not panicking, just unsure about whether I have to. I`m sure I read in the wikis that I need a 1.56 ROM on my device to flash a 1.56 based cooked ROM. Can`t find this statement any more so maybe I imagined it.
Just noticed a statement on Panosha`s ROM page which says "First flash 1.56.xxxx ROM"

Yup, you need the 1.54 SPL version from Stock first which comes with the 1.56 ROM.
Read the tutorial for more info http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505377
Then any issues just ask in that thread, loads of people will help... its what we're here for
Thanks mate, I thought so. I went ahead and did it but I now have the green screen issue so I`ve obviously not done it right. Just need to read up now how to fix it. I flashed USPL 2.5 first and then one of Duttys 1.56 ROMS which all went on fine until it rebooted. Maybe I`m not understanding the flash process as much as I thought.
Check your SPL version by turning off the phone, holding down the volume button and pressing power once. It should go to the tri colour screen and say SPL- 1.56, if it doesn't it answers why your phone has gone green screen. The SPL and the ROM numbers need to match.
It's quite simple to solve, don't worry, your phone isn't bricked.
You just need to run hard SPL 1.54 which you can find on this forum. run it via PC whilst in activesync with your phone and it will do the rest. Let us know if you still have problems after this.
Thanks. I have spl 1.14. I knew I hadn`t bricked it, just caused the green screen problem because of my own stupidity not fully understanding the procedure. The ROM is showing as 1.56Dutty, do I have to flash Hardspl 1.56 or the older one. Also does the phone have to be unlocked. I thought I had all this cracked but it just gets more & more complicated the more I try and correct my **** up.
This may seem like a silly question..but .. if I install a cooked Rom
Will my connection setting for Orange as my service provider be retained?
Thanks
yes. its detected automatically after you flashed the ROM. if you hard reset (which you ought to do) then youll just go through the customisation process where you confirm that your service provider is orange.
I'm obviously a newbie
Thanks - I was bricking myself anout this.

you already have the latest Orange ROM
I thought I was ready to go before I came accross this thread and it's left me hesitant.
I too have an Orange branded phone. SPL 1.14 ROM 1.19.61.1 WWE.
I thought that all I needed to do was:
a) update windows 7 USB driver so I can sync from the tri-colour screen.
b) run HSPL 1.56.OliNex
c) flash a new 1.56 ROM
edit: Do I need to update to stock SPL 1.54 before step b?
As davemazo says, does it need to be Orange unlocked to do this? dgattenb saying he can't flash the 1.54 HSPL onto the phone has put this on hold.

Bit outdated mate. Dated 7th April 2009. Looks most likely like version 1.56 which has been incorporated into a lot of WM6.1 roms. However newer releases including 1.57 & 1.59 have been released. Latest cooked roms already include either 1.57 or 1.59
Shipped roms can be found in wiki here mate

If your phone if orange branded then this is the reason why HTC says the firmware update is not for your phone.

My new Touch HD came last week with this ROM on it - it's on T-Mobile but SIM unlocked. very stable, no major problems other than the fact I could do with a better radio support since the T-Mobile coverage where I am is lousy, but the Touch is still worse than my SonyEricsson W950i.
Will 1.57 or 1.59 ROMs help on the radio side ?

I just changed the title to refelct the subject mater better.
You are facing the same problem as most of us which is why this site is loved so much.
In my case I have 1.14 German rom sold by sunrise.
My S/N also does not work on the 1.56 shipped roms from HTC.
They will also not sell me a WWE version of Blackstone.
So the only choice I have is to USPL / HSPL the device and get myself either a cooked or shiiped rom.
Now I am lucky as the branding of the device (flash screen, ect) is on no intrest to me, on top of that Sunrise gives me no add on Cabs that I need or even want.
My aprroaching sunrise has got me no were.
My hope is that you might get somewere and that we might beable to get a shipped rom that we can add to our collection.
Good luck
slightly off topic, but what is the difference between the WWE and European versions of the ROM available on the Wiki ? I'm currently on WWE 1.56 (T-Mobile UK) and have upgraded the radio from 1.13 to 1.14 without any effect. Wondering if the Europe version is any different, also wondering if it would help any of you locked onto Orange ?
no responce from orange
No responce from orange yet , will keep you guys upto date , chnaging the radio wont work on the Orange ROM , in the forum there are loads of folk who have kiled there phone and had to go back to " factory " settings .
I have written a letter of complaint to orange as they have said that there are no plans to release any updated ROM versions in the future. I await a call from orange complaints department. Im not expecting anything. If you put a non-orange ROM on your phone then you void your warranty. Great service me thinks not!
This is the latest rom from orange. check this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=517803
still nothign
still nothing from orange, I cant see wht orange wont " upgrade " the rom , even HTC this fixes certain problems... I will ask them again and get back to you ..
This reminds me so much of a past experience I had with a phone network company. Yes it maybe Orange!!!
Same thing as you I wrote and wrote. In the end I got so fed up I upgraded with a custom rom that suited my needs. I DID however take note that by doing a custom rom/radio upgrade screwed the warrenty...HOWEVER I read on xda dev many threads on backing up the original rom along (and more importantly) HOW TO downgrade back incase the phone needed replacing via the Networks Warrenty.
Orange IMHO are the best network out there for many reasons. But I guess they are of the opinion, that as the rom that come with it works without too many customers complaining, then they won't and need not offer an update.
For the record. I updated to Miri v12 and have followed this rom genious for months. My Blackstone runs like a bullet from a gun, and is as reliable as I want. Everything works on it and I now know exactly HOW to downgrade the phone should it happen to go wrong and need to be shipped back to Orange for replacement....or repair.
Read....read and read some more...and you'll end up loving you Blackstone more than you would have.
I have just spoken to customer support. They are now saying that the first year of warranty is with HTC and that in her opinion they would not void the warranty if you install the official rom, even though HTC say the ROM upgrade is not compatible !?!
Yea I am having exactly the same problem, I did try two updated roms from the wiki, The WWE 1.59 and the EU 1.59 both worked as far as resetting my phone got to 1% and then came up on the PC screen to say it was not supported by my provider? Would I be able to use one of these roms and flash it using another method? I have seen a few other methods of doing it?
Also would it be benificial to just use a cooked rom if I can't get one from Orange? Would I still be able to connect into their network afterwards or would I need to input a whole lot of settings?

Hello
I recently bought a htc touch but i think it was from uk, because he have the orange logo...
The seller told me that the htc was unlocked to portuguese card´s...
I put a vodafone, or TMN card, i can see the contacts, and the messages, but the phone does not comunicate with outside, don´t make calls, dont recieve call´s, don´t send messages, don´t receave messages, and after a wille, the phone start´s searching the wire of my card´s....
Can anyone help me please??
Sorry my bad english, i´m portuguesse lol.
Best regards
Tiago
Okay.
Are you sure its unlocked?
What is your spl / ipl ?
To check, soft reset the phone and press the power and camera key together.
Hi
Yes it´s unlocked,
The IPL is 2.27.0002
The SPL is 3.07.cmon
Update your radio.
Update your ipl and spl to 3.10CMON.
It's possible your phone has the same problem that some members (including myself) are seeing, a problem with the GSM radio. As far as anyone's been able to tell, it's a hardware problem. Try updating the radio and/or re-flashing a new rom, but if it still doesn't work after that you will need to get it repaired. I'm still waiting to hear back from the guy I bought mine from, to see if he can get it fixed under warranty, but most likely I'll have to get HTC to repair it themselves. Hopefully it won't cost too much...
Just one last note, if you bring your phone down for a warrenty repair, like I did.
Flash your phone to stock 6.1 ROM available at the Elf Upgrading forum (Which is right beside this forum)
Than flash your IPL and SPL to 2.x
help me to unlock a htc elf 100 today please
Please refer to the Elf Upgrading forum.
They have a thread of how to unlock a phone which is pretty good
