Is there a way to only update the spl version on my artemis (hoping that this will invoke the 'sd boot' bootloader option which isn't available on my device)? btw., the 'sd boot' bootloader also isn't available with pof's Uspl patch (at least not on my device). Since i'm not sure whether an newer wm6 rom has an newer spl, i'm not really willing to take the chance to upgrade to a wm6 rom since i cannot go back to the original wm5 tmobile (dutch) rom. there still is no factory rom available for my device.

I just cooked up and loaded a ROM.
Rom 4.00.11 eng
Radio version 6.18.00
During the selection process, I chose sim unlock as one of the wanted features however it did not unlock and now asks for SID cose when I insert forieng sim card. I have even tried to download XDAunlock but it gives me an error message that it cannot find unlcok code?
What's the solution?
Unlock Tool didn´t work with WM2003.
Cook a Rom with 3.17.03 unlock your phone and then upgrade to WM2003.
Unlock-Tool requires the wireless Modem, that is not included in the WM2003

Can I downgrade rom from 4.00 to 3.17?
Anything special to know?
I would suggest you backup your original rom using sd method before embarking on any flashing of the device.
Nah, just flash the phone at will: just remember that you need an SD-card to load anything else once you've had 4.00.10 or 4.00.16 (both T-Mobile ROMs).
I did as X recomended. Flashed to 3.17, unlocked, then flashed to 4.00
It was a breeze. Thanks for the great work. The Kitchen is awesome.
Hi all. I appologize for starting a new thread, but I wasn't sure which topic to post under as this problem seems to span a few. In short, here's my problem: I'm trying to upgrade my Tmobile UK MDA Vario to 2.26.10.2 from 1.6.2.4 WWE. I'm using the stock Tmobile USA ROM updater available from the tmobileapps site.
When I run the upgrade file I get a failure with an Error 294 - Invalid Vender ID. While I don't understand why UK and USA would have different locks, I figured fine, I'll use lokiwiz to unlock my phone.
I've tried lokiwiz 0.2b to unlock the CID, but I get the itsutils.dll error (that it can't update the file).
So now I'm stuck. I can't upgrade the ROM using the US ROM, and I can't seem to CID unlock the phone to allow me to use another ROM. The official UK ROM is sitting a few versions back, and I don't want to have to upgrade twice, so that's out (unless someone can point me to a site where I can get the newer UK ROM).
Anyone know what I should try? I'm kinda stumped. The only think I can think of is that I'm only activesynced to this computer as a Guest, not as a real activesync pairing. Could that effect either the ROM upgrade or the unlocker?
For reference, here's more info about my phone:
IPL 1.06
SPL 1.01
GSM 1.12.10
OS 1.6.2.4
Any help or pointers would be appreciated!
Did u install the EnableRAPI CAB in your phone before starting lokiwiz?
Also, i remember that i had to run lokiwiz 0.2b twice to unlock my phone and my friend's one.
So try this: soft reset the phone, install enableRapi.cab, run lokiwiz and then run it again.
Good luck!
bye!
Yup, that was it. I thought I only needed the EnableRAPI CAB if I was SIM unlocking. Silly me.
Thank you!
Hello,
I used Step I nivid to downgrade to wm5 before I upgraded to wm6 from kamalneet, link to this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=349603
But I have some major problem with the rom, when I now want to donwgrade back to the official WM5 from my provider O2 it always says that the nbf file is to old and i have to get a newer one.
This problem only occured after I used "nivid wm5" in kamalneet's post for downgrading.
I can downgraded with different "Step1" Roms posed in this forum but not with the original one as it was possible before!
And also after downgrading with one of these roms the error message keeps the same!
Is there any way that I can get my original O2 rom back?
Thanks!!
search for HardSPL and flash it! after that your SPL Version will be: 2.4G.4PDA THEN!!! you can downgrade to ANY SPL. just flash latest o2 ROM and you will be back at SPL 2.20.0001 again!
i've tried it already it REALLY works!!!
i just flashed back to my dopod original rom.
Original rom is still the best.
here is the link

Yep, just as nForce said:
You can use HardSPL.
But if you want to set it all back to the old-fashioned original-values you have to go through an even looooonger way (have done it by myself) - you have to go down to IPL 2.10 or lower to have your device back to IPL 2.15 from original O2 ROM, otherwise it remains 2.20 or higher *caugh* -
but then it's back to original in every aspect.
You have to go into SoftSPL (that whitescreen), then from WIKI back to IPL 2.10 (see wiki), followed by going back into SoftSPL and with whitescreen to SPL 2.15 or lower. After that you can take the nbf from the O2-Upgrade-File and flash with the ROMUpdateUtility_NV_G4.exe from Upgrade_Package.zip.
Just take the nk.nbf from the original O2 Firmware (after starting somewhere in %TEMP% or by extracting setup-file), then put it in "Upgrade Utility" flash it and boot will say:
O2-Screen
IPL 2.15.0001
SPL 2.15.0001
GSM 02.19.21
OS (don'tknowexactly)
regardless of which version you ever have had flashed onto your device before.
Happy flashing.
offtopic: what are these I/SPL 3.0something versions for? Just for preventing going to other ROMs?
Not HardSPL but SoftSPL
whoops... it's even easier than that.
regardless of IPL and SPL-Version just follow the steps to get into SoftSPL (the White-screen) WITHOUT flashing HardSPL
Then do the firmware-update from O2 (the O2-shipped-one) and everything should work fine. (after this procedure your phone should look like a virgin, with no HardSPL, with CID-Lock (if not unlocked before), original ROM and ExtROM)

Dear All,
I decided to add the miri custom ROM. I'm on official 1.66 rom WWE with radio 2.06. I read in this forum that I have to downgrade to 1.48 in order ro be able to SPL. I downloaded the 1.48 from the thread of Leo official roms in this forum. The process stopped at 1% telling me "Invalid vendor". then I restarted my device but the GSM network is not working.
Please help how could I go back to 1.48 to SPL my device.
i want to hard spl but my spl is 1.66.0000
how to hard spl ??
You need the ROM that originally came with your HD2, flash it using the SD card method and then you can put HSPL on the device

That will only help if the original spl on the stock rom is 1.42.0000, which with a 1.66 based rom I'm guessing not. HSPL currently only works if the spl is 1.42.0000 and in cases where it isn't you need to either upgade or downgrade to 1.42 first.
i can not flash by memory card but i have error vender id
in goldcard i have problem too, this is vender id error
is any hspl for spl 1.66.0000 ? ?
Edit !!
i can update my rom to energy by sspl but it still in HTC bootscreen
i need hard spl
please help
(
helppppppppp
Who is your provider? you need the 1.48 ROM from your provider to flash back to SPL 1.42 via SD card. If your phone isn't vendor locked (although it sounds like it is) then you can get the 1.48 ROM for your region from HTC direct
Might be a lesson to be learned here to read everything fully before attempting anything
i have 1.48 rom and test SD card method but i have vender id error
Try another one of these 1.48 roms to see if perhaps any one of them work

As has been stated by EddyOS you can't always just flash to any stock 1.48 rom, you need to try to get a 1.48 based rom for your operator and that is why you are getting the invalid vendor problem. I luckily did not have a problem and I see some other users are saying that the Goldcard method also no longer works. I can't comment on that, but you may want to try that option out.
a question
for ugprade to 1.66 i need goldcard ?
because gold card is worked by active sync but my device in still in htc boot screen
You need to get a 1.48 ROM for your region/vendor and flash using the sd card method, nothing else will get you back to SPL 1.42 so don't bother trying.
If you don't understand then you shouldn't have flashed in the first place
ok. i tested 1.48 and 1.61 rom by sd method but see Not Allowed error.
i will download 1.66 and test it
thanks a lot
Are you getting the 1.48 ROM that is from your region/vendor?

seems you are just flashing any old rom. You need to find one that is specific to your provider (voafone, o2, tmobile, whatever) otherwise you will continue to get invalid vendor.
i live in iran
i dont know my vendor
i upgrade another leo by this 1.61 rom but this device ...
i unlucky...
PLease can some point me in the direction of a ROM I can use to downgrade
my SQL. I have tried versions 1.43 ships and NBH but no luck. INstructions woudl also be nice incase I am doing something wrong.
Please dont tell me to to read the "sticky's" as where this is mentioned there are no instructions for fixing it.
note: i tried flashing Official RUU_Leo_TMO_UK_1.43.110.2_Radio_Signed_15.26.50.07U_2.04.50.22_2_Ship ROM but it said not allowed. I tried extracting and flashing from my Sd card and by booting to spl and running it from there, same there aswell - what I am doing wrong?
If you have vodafone device, i think you must (without HSPL) use vodafone ROM, not TMO, isnt it?
this was a replacement device, the other was fine, just had a scratched screen. It wont take hardpl or hardpl2 - i just get "not allow" or "critcal error"
So you have a Vodafone UK branded Device??? Check it if it is branded!!!
First try to flash an official Vodafone UK ROM from SD, by renaming and copying the nbh file to the SD root.
I think there are 3 versions available:
- 1.43 (probably downgrades SLP to 1.42.0000)
- 1.66 (probably SPL 1.66.0000)
- 1.72 (probably SPL 1.66.0000)
You can find them here:
http://www.4shared.com/dir/22189940/b8552fa0/Shipped_Leo_ROMs.html
Then you could try HSLP2 or maybe even SSPL.
edit: you could also check your serial at the official HTC download section.
i get "not allow" when I try flash a voda 1.43 rom, I can flash fine with the correct 1.66 ROMS but I want to downgrade as Hardspl2 wont work, i get a critical usb error - usb connection is fine as I can flash shipped ROMS fine.
The ROM I am currently on is branded yes.
managed to find a 1.43 voda rom and get spl down to 1.43, hardspl then worked ok, still not sure why my voda spl 1.66 wouldnt take the hardspl
