Dead Dutch HTC 3300?

Hi Guys,
I have searched the forum, but no solution for my problem. I had a dutch htc 3300. My device is not unlocked. I have tried to flash the pdamobiz rom to my device and since can`t get by the splash screen. STUPID!!! I can get into the bootloader but I need the original dutch rom to flash. Can anybody upload please? Cannot do anything with it now.
If I am right, there is no way to unlock the device in this situation!?!
Any suggestions?
thanks

Exact same issue a couple of hours ago.. see my Help Desperate post below this one.. it worked for me.

how
What exactly did you do? I did not understand your thread. How did you unlock your device?
What is meant by this:
not your flashing one, but clean bootloader, by hardreset followed by record and reset
thanks

Wait
Hi Guys,
Is there not a solution? Do I have to wait for HTC to release a dutch rom upgrade? I still don`t understand why the Pdabiz rom killed my device?
Please help me out
thanks

That refers to the flashing Tmobile boot screen that shows and stays.. it wouldn't boot any further.
If you press record (left top side of your device, small button above the volume slider) and hold this while pressing reset you will get into the real bootloader mode (a tri-colour screen) that allows you to do a USB connect.
Now go to: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Artemis_Upgrades
and download the following ROM for your T-Mobile device:
T-Mobile English T-MOB005 ARTE***** 1.13.110.1 9/22/06 1.13.110.101 1.13.0000 02.49.90 4.1.13.25 (direct link: ftp://xda:[email protected]/art_tmouk_11311001_024990_wwe_ship.exe)
Just run this exe while in that bootloader (tri-colour) mode.
Good luck, that did it for me.

Not T-mobile
Hi,
Thanks for your reply. But my device is not T-mobile branded. It is a original HTC.
Tried your method but does not work.
Will have to find someone with a dutch rom I think
I am out of ideas

*bump
I have the same problem.. I can get into bootloader screen, but I can't find a T-Mobile ROM to flash.
Anyone with a working link to a T-Mobile ROM? The link was removed from this page..
Thnx

What language was your original T-Mobile in? I presume Dutch since you live in Holland. Unless you had your phone unlocked before you tried to flash it, you can only restore the same ROM. Unfortunately there is no Dutch ROM as far as I know.

So how did you solve it? Thought you had this problem 2 months ago..
And yes the original language was Dutch..
Im contacting T-Mobile right now, and they should have a NL version but the site is down atm.

Personally I never tried to flash my phone, maybe you read an answer from me to someone with a similar problem.
T-Mobile can provide you with the correct ROM, but I don't think it can be found at their site. Well, it was not there last time I looked anyway.

Hmm you were right.. it was somebody else.
The ROM should be avaible @ http://www.t-mobile.nl/software but that site isn't working at the moment. They told me that the only thing I could do now, is going to a T-Mobile shop and let them send it for a fix.
So my hopes are on a PM that I send to the author of this post. Perhaps he's able to give me the original ROM.

Mmm, I think he was looking for a T-Mobile ROM in the English language, so you cannot use that because it has a different signature. Unless you're phone is unlocked?

nope..
But I can give it try anyway..
Want to use the fixing by T-Mobile as a last resort..

I just checked their Dutch site and it is up and running again. Hate to disappoint you, but there is no original complete Dutch ROM for download, only an update with a Blackberry Client.
You may find a ROM for a MDA III though, be careful not to use that one because that is a different model, also known as Blue Angel. It has a sliding mechanism and a keyboard for example.

MDA III Update...
I also have my P3300 f*cked up...

Thnx for the link!
But this doesn't work if your MDA is in bootloader.. this program needs an ActiveSync connection

Hmm...
I'm thinking about sending it to HTC voor repair
I'm going to do one more thing and that's is backup the OS
from a friend that also had a HTC P3300 NL and hope to make
a ROM file...
So let's hope that will work!

But if you made a backup you still need to connect to your MDA while it's in bootloader...
If anyone knows how to do that...

Yep i know... i've tried everything! with mtty.exe and nothing
works.
See below the reaction from IMEI-CHECK:
Hello,
sorry to tell you the BAD NEWS but you REALLY can not fix the phone yourself.
You only have 2 options to get the phone fixed:
1) you find the "ORIGINAL HTC P3300 DUTCH ROM Update" and flash the device from bootloader (most likely not available)
2) you send the phone to repair
Sorry to tell you but there are REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY no other options.
The mistake from you was to use the risky ROM update without CID unlocking the phone BEFORE.
Regards,
IMEI-CHECK Team

Hello,
I've a broken HTC P3300 (Dutch). The story is this:
It has no sim-lock but it does have a CID-Lock.
I update my Dutch HTC P3300 to this ROM:
- PDAMobiz_Dopod_P800W_AKU301_v1.1.2_PowerMap
and that whent great. Everything worked. After this i saw another ROM and i installed it:
- Tom HTC Artemis Rom v2.00.01 PDAVIET
and the update whent fine, but after hard reset it stops at the HTC Logo with the version numbers.
I only can get to the bootloader and do some thing with hyperterminal (mtty.exe).
When i want to install this ROM:
- HTC_1.12.405.01_026790_WWE_SHIP
it says that i get this error after 2%:
ERROR [244] WRONG MODEL ID
When i use art_tmouk_11311001_024990_wwe_ship.exe it says i have the WRONG VENDER ID.
I have made a backup with aWizard and have these files:
-HTCLogo.nba
-OS.nba
-Radio.nba
-Splash.nba
-boot.rgu
and a folder ExtRom that is empty...
Can you help me with this? I hope so!!
Thanks for your help!
Version numbers:
IPL 1.12.0001
SPL 1.12.0000

HTC P3300-unplug when updating PDAMobiz ROM-dead phone-need help

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

thanks all,plz help

You need to flash original rom matching your CID, this means the SAME language and the SAME operator/carrier ROM that was originally on your device when you bought it. After flashing this rom device will boot again.

Where did you buy your phone? What type is it? Is it an actual HTC Herald? if you bought it from a cell carrier, maybe you can log into their site and download it there.

wooo...cost me 400rmb to make it repaired,changed a flasher and I now the make my herald superCID . after repaired I used the SDcard to flash the wm6ruu (using the file named heraimg.nbh on sdcard) .whatever it's ok now thanks everyone

Now challange KarhU

can u download a Super CID form SD-memory on Bootloader for whom couldnt enter the WM and make "ActiveSync" On.?
discuss if it possible or not

well any one help

What do you use to get the ROM to the device? - do u use custom RUU? Because it can load the ROM to your device if it is connected to the PC by USB and if it is in bootloader mode. (If your tri-color screen says USB on the bottom it should work. You do not need AS to flash a ROM.
Edit: forget it - I just noticed that Elf CID unlocker needs working AS. However you can try to flash a ROM with matching CID (from your provider - i.e. if you have Orange branded elf use Orange ROM, Tmob Elf TMob ROM...) - that should revive your device. After that you can supercid it from working WM6 environment.

well i dont know the provider CID , and i tried to download the Original WWE ROM but it keep saying ID Vnder , i think i have changed the IPL and SPL how can i know the original IPL and SPL for normal HTC toch (elf)

Where did you buy the phone? Orange? T Mobile? Directly HTC Branded?
That should give you a hint which ROM is of matching CID for the device. E.g. official HTC ROM will not work on my Orange branded Hermes - I need Orange ROM to upgrade.
If you changed the spl your device would probably be dead - you should not even be able to see the bootloader screen. Moreover there is no bootloader with your version number for Hermes. If the bootloader identifies device correctly (does it say something like Elf?). then you should be running original Elf bootloader.

well i bought it from soudi arabi a dont know what kind of provider

im think about write CID code to make it superCID so i can download a ROM with original WWE

What does your bootloader screen say? If you had a Hermes ROM flashed in - it should say:
HERM100
IPL-
HERM100
SPL-
Connection type (Serial or USB)

I know...
But to use Pof's unlocker you need to run sspl and that thing needs AS which needs functional WM in turn...
You should be able to flash CID matching ROM - ideal case would be the ROM device came with. Are there any clueas on the device - ie is it branded somehow?

i know SSPL i do it its will force the device to accept the ROM no mattar what thats why i messd up my device

Try to look for saudi arabia shipped ROMs for Elf on the forum - that gives you better chances than tweaking the bootloader.

That is question for Elf owners/users. I can only tell you that SPL/IPL numbers you provided are not for Hermes - you can check it here and here.
As you can see the highest SPL version numbers for Hermes are 1.11 and then it jumps directly to 2.something, highest IPL version for Hermes is 1.04.
You can ask ELf users what Elf IPL/SPl number should be.
What is written above SPL number in your device?

ok thank you very much

the problem is the nearest HTC center is 1700 Km away otherwise i could make them fix it

I still think that you have a proper origianl Elf bootloader on your device. It is a pity you did not back your ROM up before flash. You can try to find some saudi arab members of this forum, they can tell you which operators are in the country so looking for your ROM may be simpler. Otherwise I can only suggest you to try all official Elf ROMs you can find until there will be a match. You can be sure that your device does not have CID of ROM you tried to flash.

Elf wiki does not have shipped ROMs part filled. Here is the link.
Ok lets try to look for your original ROM:
What was the ROM language - english, arabic...
Was the arabic enabled - i.e. could you write in arabic without added software?
Is there any brand name on your Elf (on the surface of the phone - I have Orange logo there so maybe you have some lead too)

i know im stubet to do that :|
yah thats right how can i make becouse i found WWE original

I received from friend of mine a brick called HTC - on back is label ARTE100.
it is freeze on bootscreen, that is good for now.
BUT i have information that it is comming from Netherlands, and was locked before.
Someone else is bricked upgrading it without CID unlock beforehand.
I have tried almost all available original ROMs, well some of them missed.
My question is is there any way to check by IMEI , which carrier was before?
And is there any available factory ROM from this carrier.
There is no sign or any label on it.
freezing screen is:
IPL 3.04.0001
SPL 3.04.0001
GSM 02.93.90

I guys, I'm trying to repair my ARTEMIS that I bricked but I don't know which was the original rom because I have flashed with WM6 original rom the day after I bought it.
As asked by Stopper there is a way to know which was original rom so I could try to restore it by SD card?
thank you so much
bye

There's no way through the device (no device flash history), however it's usually the stock carrier ROM so try flashing to that.

The answers are confusing, I have one Mda Tmobile (Artemis) with exactly the same problem. It had german rom originally, and I tied Uspl and had error at the end, maybe the version was lower cause i did not check. Since I could not be able solve it. when you try wwe rom it says invalid vendor Id, any other rom give ivalid model id error.
Is there any solution available for this?
Thanks

run the official exe
find it's content in users application data (in documents and settings)
copy to somewhere else
delete the spl.nbh and run the ruu
it worked with herald which was danish and now is wwe
haven't tried it on artemis,because it was wwe,but it should work
