Hi
Yes, I joined the "Bricked my Artemis" club.
Problem is what do I do now? It says "Load the original vendor ROM" in this forum but how? I don't have the luxury of ActiveSync anymore. I tried connecting via mtty and that worked. I've tried to reset there and it took the commands but when I reset it still only shows the vendor screen.
I have downloaded a software package from the vendor that branded my phone but it's the normal AS update tool. I just realized my Bootloader Screen (three colors, you know) changed to a grey screen with a progress bar hanging at 0%. What the?
I read somewhere that perhaps my bootloader is too new. But how do I downgrade without AS?
I hope you can help me. I need the damn phone for my job...
Edit: I managed to get an original ROM onto it again, so please ignore this. Although I'm still trying to find out how to get USPL to cooperate...
have the same problem
Hi, how have you solved the issue. It came up to be the same problem with me as well. Thanks Radas

Latest update: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=363228#363228
Let me first say: I am unsure if my SIM is now unlocked and if it has a CID check. Therefore I'm unsure if the info in the related topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=62496 applies. Therefore I'm posting this new topic.
I recently got a Orange SPV M600 which as far as I understand is a HTC Prophet. I am totally new to PDAs but wanting to use it with my T-Mobile sim and with a fair amount of computer knowledge on board decided to unlock it myself using imei-check.co.uk/m600unlock.php
I ran the program and it said the sim was succesfully unlocked. However when I tried to power on the device after that, it was stuck at the 3 color screen only displaying the values:
IPL 2.10.0001
SPL 2.10.0001
This gave me quite a scare because the device is brand new. Soft and hard reboot bring me back to the same screen. This morning I tried running the tool again and the unlocked failed giving me a message that key / imei do not match. After rebooting it now also shows the value RUU at the upper right corner of the screen.
I read some of the posts on this forum and did a little research on Google. I think I know what my next steps should be but I'm terrified to toast my M600.. I already fell in love with it! Could you guys give me feedback before I try the following?
* Download and unzip:
xda:[email protected]/Prophet/Shipped_Complete_Updates/RUU_Prophet_2151327_21513121_021921_DOP_ASIA_WWE_Ship-NoVendorID.zip
* Follow the steps on http://wiki.xda-developers.com/inde...tion On How To Upgrade with Bootloader method
Should that work?
PS: what does the RUU value mean and why did it appear after my 2nd try?
Thanks in advance guys!
Have you tried contacting IMEI-check's support?
RUU is. IIRC, radio unit upgrade and it should not have appeared.
Don't flash the rom, you might need to send it back to orange / HTC and there is no official orange downloadable rom as yet so if the device boots to 'dopod' or whatever they'll know you've messed with it. If the key does not match sounds like the unlocking has screwed your imei. Does the IMEI the app now recognises match the one you paid for the unlock for or the one on the back of the unit/ box?
Richard
IMEI-check support:
The unlock has nothing to do with your device problem. You say yourself that it already turned on directly to 3 color screen after you switched it off (sometimes this happens due to problems in HTC flash driver). For a firmware flash you don't need Orange. You can do this on your computer at home.
Both the soft and the hard reset bring me back to the same 3 color screen..

I do not think it co-incidence that you are doing a flash operation ( unlocking) and now the device will not boot. It should reboot after unlocking according to their documentation and if it went to the tri-colour screen something was amiss after the unlocking then, quite possibly becuase of it. The unlock completed succesfully the first time then?
Don't flash the dopod rom, if the IMEI now has a mis-match you may need to send it back to orange for repair / reflashing. They will be able to tell if there is a dopod rom on there and may refuse warranty - I wouldn't mention the unlocking if I were you. There is no official orange rom you can try :-(
Richard
I do not have a receipt for the phone.. is the ROM at least the one I should try if I do try one?

In the UK at least you do not need a receipt for the phone - it is based on seriel number.
http://service.htceurope.com/
Once you have tried flashing the other roms they can tell you have been flashing it and may not give warranty service, but hopefully all it really needs is a rom anyway. My warning is just in case it is not the rom that is the issue and you need to send it back.
When you run imei-check's app now what IMEI does it give for the device?
Richard
Good question, I just checked and the IMEI in their tool gives me the same one as I wrote down before the operation. It is the same as on the box and as the one I payed for to get the key for and used the first time around.
I hoped the flash would solve my problems and I tried flashing the M600 with the ROM mentioned above. 100% completed and all looked good until the reboot.. Again it will not go further then the tri-color screen with the exception that the SPL version has changed:
IPL 2.10.0001
SPL 2.15.0001
Anything left to try?

Get back to IMEI-check and ask for more help? They may claim that the unit was faulty before unlocking but if so how could the unlocker run? Or try posting at www.modaco.com to see if anyone there has any ideas.
Which country was the device supplied in? Did you check the seriel in the link I gave? If it's from the UK you could send to a friend or collegue to return under warranty without paperwork ;-)
Sorry.
Richard
Well at least we made progress, a hard reset now let's the device boot but.. after I went through the settings I pressed start and it automaticly powered off.
I then inserted my T-Mobile simcard and rebooted again to find myself in the tri-color screen. Another hard reset once again let me reboot but during the boot of Windows Windows it says 'Data crashes. Please contact your service center.'
Where in the Netherlands do you live?
I have succesfully dopotted two M600 phones and I have had one repaired by Orange, for broken speaker. They did not seem to care that I flashed it to dopod.
I might be able to help you out on this one.
send me an e-mail on [email protected]
Thanks,
Robin
O, and I unlocked both also....

How did they try to unlock it?
Richard
hi
i couldn't speak to the guy who tried to unlock it, i spoke to his collegue and all he could say is that he tried to unlock by logs
now he couldn't tell me what did he use
i have tried to hard reset it but it comes back on that screen
:? :? :?
Try to load the no id DOPOD ROM.
This one will install when the M600 is in that 3 colour screen.
I did it and it worked for me.
I tried to CID unlock with a tool that contained a specific WARNING NOT TO USE for a certain ROM version, which of course I did anyway.
The warning was correct. My M600 was stuck.
By reflashing I resolved the problem.
You can always bring it back to Orange and claim that this happened after you've let the battery go dead; you did not get a chance to charge on your 1,5 month holiday ..........
Good luck!

hey, i have a stock Orange SPV M3100 ie htc Hermes 100, flashed successfully with Black Satin a while ago now, no major problems and running much less glitchy than the stock rom. yesterday when i checked my phone it was on the bootloader (tri-colour). it wont leave it, soft reset hard reset. cant flash a new rom or anything as it wont connect with active sync obviously. when i reset for a second on the boot screen it says 'no image found'
tried the mtty program but cant type in it? cant press enter for it to start or whatever, prob being retarded im sure but i couldnt get it to work. pluuus on the initial open port setting menu theres no option for usb? yet the guide says select usb.
help pleeease =]
it actually says 'no image file' not found but yes anyone have any ideas?
Flash your unit with the OEM ROM using the SD Card...
hmmm have done so then soft reset and it seems to have made no difference, getting hold of a different rom to see if thats more successful...

is there a particular rom to be lookign for? tried two dfferent ones that have installed successfully but when i reset just loads up in boot screen again?!
gah most frustrating
Try looking for and then (if need be) repairing bad blocks with MTTY. Then reflash os if bad blocks were found and repaired. Remember that sometimes the carrier actually "brands" handsets with bad blocks that CANT be repaired. Hope this helps....
Hi guys, you have been a great help to me so far, but I just can't find anythign to help me with this now. I have a hermes100 with WM6 and i just flashed the radio to 1.54.07 and it gave me an option for hardSPL and said that it was recommended so i investigated and found the upgrade for it.
I ran the wrapper file and it goes to the stage where it puts my hermes into flash mode but it displays "spl1.09" on the screen yet when push the ok and power keys during reset it shows "spl2.03"
it goes through the screens until it puts my phone into flash mode and it says it is trying to read my device then i get error code (260) that it isnt connected. Anyone know a way to fix this?
Use sd card method, page 116 on here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=296722
Hope this helps...Cheers...
okay, i tried the sd card method and it does the same thing. after it gets to the bootloader screen i just sits there with
"HERM100
IPL-SSPL by des
HERM 100
SPL-109.ds
serial"
okay, nevermind, i just had to reinstall the drivers for when i was in bootloader mode. I got it to work, thank you for you help.
cheers :-D
No problem, now you should be able to flash any hermes rom to your hearts content with the knowledge you have a safety net if something does(and probably will, as you'll find flashing addictive, sooner or later) go wrong. Pleae remember though that Hard SPL ISN'T a guarantee that you will be able to fix you phone, it just makes it easier when something goes wrong... Cheers....and happy flashing...

how did you do this?
hi all,
my jasjar had an error while upgrading to ranju 7.7,
i tried to reset, didn't came back,
hard reset neither,
i went to bootloader mode, i could,
i connected it again to the pc, it showed usb,
i tried to flash to Rom that was working previously it arrives to 7% than stops,
what should i do ...
i tried to flash with official rom, it says that the rom wasn't designed for this model, it has worked before...
please help...
Hi,
if you search in the ranju's thread there's the solution.
You could have the doc corrupted. Simply read the wiki,
you must use mtty to format your device and then reflash the rom you want (with radio rom also).
Had similar problem
upgrading Imate JasJar to Ranju 7.7, only at first it showed as success, then it started behaving funny during customization, then failed to customize, then got stuck on Windows 6.1 green flash screen and eventually refused to budge beyond blue Imate screen with versions info. I tried everything, a few dozens of hard resets returned me to the same problem, removing the battery didn't do much and mtty didn't show USB as available option, so couldn't even use that. I was pretty much stuck solidly and for a while. At my wits end I read that problems like mine are associated with DOC corruption and my JasJar is as good as dead, quite a few people suggested to those who are in the same position to throw their bricked babies away, as there is no economic solution apart from sending it for service where the corrupted chip may be replaced. What do you know, I followed wiki recommendation and entered a boot screen by pressing light power reset, then just flashed back to Ranju 7.6 and my JasJar was brought back to life!!! The update went without a glitch and everything is working fine. I guess I will keep the 7.7 on my O2 and 7.6 on my Imate for now, won't be risking an update anymore on the JasJar, don't think I have much hair left after all the pulling I did trying to bring it back to life. Hope this helps someone in the same predicament
