Try reflashing the Radio ROM or the complete ROM. Also make sure you have applied the AthenaUnlocker before you do.

But this ROM sets your IMEI to XXXXXXX that right? :-/
my imei is corrupt
hi,,,the imei got corrupted upon me flashing it with a rom i obtained from another site ,,,since then its messed up my imei ,,,the sad thing is if this handset got stolen i dont think the network providers can do nothing to block it or barr it and i messed up my warranty
i,ve tried to speak to other engineers about this they dont wanna know because imei modification or even messing with it in the u.k is very illegal but all i want to do is get my original imei back and seems no one will help me or even point me to the right direction of doing this ,,thus i have lost my gps that wont work anymore
.
i tried using the tool called iwizard which can modify or change imei's on htc platforms but it doesnt support the athena its only for older model handsets.
besides the roms from xda developers i have been using since i owned a blueangel device and not 1 of them has caused me problems only serious issue i have had is with mr lumpistefans rom which has made my wallaby device dead!! and i am saddened to lose my old wallaby because of his roms
I'm sorry to hear of you news. I'm aware that IMEI alteration is illegal in the UK, but thought that for genuine reasons such as this some of the phone shops you find round major towns such as London may be able to assist (for a fee). If you take original documentation, like the sticker on the box and the unit to verify that that was the genuine IMEI, and it is restoration that you're after not alteration..... I don't know, someone might be able to help...
---
But just to confirm, if I use the German WM5 T-Mobile ROM on my UK Ameo, that currently has a English WM6 it should operate, and keep my IMEI... the only thing will be the language, which I take it that CAB file you provided will restore, and EVERYTHING will be in English? That right?
cheers!
my imei is corrupt
hi and yes buddy all should be fine like i said this rom is ok and genuine from german t-mobile site and the same rom is available on the ftp developers site ,,just use the the english cab file and your ready to go
and in theory this cab file should work on other foreign language roms also
and i did try to contact shops regarding my imei none want to help they said nothing can be done

After trying to update my rom to PDAMobiz_Dopod_P800W_AKU301_v1.1.2_PowerMap
My HTC p3300 froze.
I guess its my own fault not using a compatible rom. But its not so clear what rom fits what.
Anyway
As far a i have figured i need a original swedish rom to put my HTC p3300 back to life.
I have tired with the WWE rom from the wiki but it wont work.
PLEASE help me here

I think you should have CID unlocked your device first from www.imei-check.co.uk, before trying another rom, may be they can help you out if you contact them.
So what u are saying is that I cant fix this myself. Even if I got the right rom file?
Could u please explain exactly what cid unlocking is and why are my HTC locked.
I mean its a flashable device. Why must I pay someone to unlockit before I can update it.
If HTC delivers a new rom update do i still have to cid unlock it?
//Clanman
please search the forum and you will see each rom are locked to country-language-network settings, if you get swedish rom then it should work but I don't think you will find other than original english HTC rom
look here
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Artemis
I think you can find a swedish rom here if you have your imei number
http://www.smartmobile.se/item.aspx?id=795
Ok thanks.
But i guess the only way to find out your imei number is to dial *#06#
As my phone is stuck at boot I cant get to the number.
At least Im learning how not to do things.
I guss i have to talk to the guys at www.imei-check.co.uk
Thanks u guys for helping me out

Yes, you can. It is also printed on the label underneath the battery, and it may also be available on the cartboard box the phone was shipped in, if you still have it.
Ok i will check it when I come home.
Thanks.
You made me see a light in the darkness
//Clanman
I just want to Say thank you guys.
It worked perfectly. I now have my phone back in working conditions.
I might still send it to the iemi guys to have it unlocked
Best regards

You don't have to send it physically, but they will send you a file, based on your unique IMEI number. That file contains some sort of code which unlocks your device.
Yeah u are right. I realized it myself when I went to their homepage

When you bought the device,did you have a CD called ROM update utility or something like that? I have it with my Dopod.
hmm no i dont think so, but i can search my hundred cds
I found a cd with varios programms but no rom update utility so far.
Perhaps you could also advice me how to backup the original rom and install it if possible.
I know somebody else with a ameo. perhaps he can help.
Sorry, I don't have that experience. I would gladly help you if I know how. I'm sure there are many developers especially the ROM cook who know this like the back of their fingers. Come on, give this your guy a hand.
Check Mahmoods page here - http://mahmood1.com/ameo_athena_htcx750_WM6_ROMs.aspx
He has a list of available Roms near the bottom of the page.
Thank you for the link, i downloaded the tmobile rom but it didnt work i think because its not german.
Wrong vender id error. I need the original german rom to restore my machine and i think then i can update it.
Any german guys reading this? Somethere it must be avaible. or can somebody tell me how to extract rom from machine, becaue a friend of mine has the ameo too.

Hi, all
My Hermes' touch screen is dead. I returned it to softbank to get it fixed, but it was sent back to me from the manufacturer. The manufacturer report says that it is because I changed the ROM. Yes I did. You can read part of history of ROMs I ever tried.
Now, I need to reinstall the original WM5 Japanese version as I got it for the first time. I tried to find the ROM in the CD but there is nothing except ms office.
Does anyone have WM5 Japanese version, so I can download it and install it to my hermes?
I heard it that I have to modified the nbh file since I installed HardSPL already? How to modify nbh file?
Thanks in advance..
Sorry,
I got the ROM from this
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades
However, the screen alignment software doesn't work. It works when I use it to flash my hermes into other English ROM.
I got the screen alignment software from this
http://www.codefactory.es/descargas/family_1/product_3/MSP_RemoteAlignment.zip
Any help??
I failed to convince softbank x01ht manufacturer to get my device fixed. sadly, i think it's the end of the toy.
RIP my Softbank X01HT, July 24th 2008.
Damn SoftBank, its always like this. We just HAVE to be sure to downgrade to original ROMs when we deal with them...
What did they actually say to you?

what I saw from the report the manufacturer sent with my hermes back to softbank shop was they didn't accept the phone coz the ROM has been changed.
My fault is I didn't change it to Japanese ROM first before sending it. I did try but I couldn't by passing the screen alignment screen in Japanese ROM. Screen alignment software doesn't work in Japanese ROM.
I thing I knew the culprit. I should have removed the .lnk file in windows folder after flashing. But it's too late now..
Hello everyone!
i have one t-mobile branded firmware htc hd2 which i bought it from and uk based ebay seller..its unlock..and i can recieve and make calls..
but im not able to use internet on the phone bcos it has settings for t-mobile network..
and i also tried to upgrade it through htc website but whenever im trying it says these updates are not for this serial number...
kindly help me in debranding my phone so that i can use this in australia with full functions..thanks a lot in advance..
trust me that would be a great help from you.
If this is a UK T-Mob HD, then its a contract phone and seems strange that it is up for sale so soon. Unless it has been stolen - I don't think we should help with stolen phones, unless you're willing to gvie me the IMEI number so I can check here with T-Mob.

Im not exactly sure if you want help making your internet work with your sim, or if you want help taking the tmobile rom off and putting a stock or custom one on..
If you just want help with internet settings then download the attached file and install on your phone. Then run the connection setup program in the start menu, connections screen and it should set up your internet and mms settings for the network you select (if its available).
If you want to put a custom rom on your device then follow my flashing a leo rom for noobs link in my signature to install HardSPL and then you can flash any of the roms in the rom development section to take off the tmobile branding and give you whatever you want.

What network are you trying to use it with?
I'm not too sure if you can change the connection settings easy on the T-Mobile ROM, I'd recommend flashing with the HTC unbranded ROM and then you can just select your service provider and it all works sweet.

I work for T-mobile and the only way you can change these settings is indeed to change to HTC unbranded ROM or any other ROM of your choice.

You must have flashed one of the TMobile Test Roms during your travels, which has that splash screen on it. Custom Roms dont include a splash screen so it wont be overwritten when flashing other roms afterwards.
Download the attachment and unzip to a folder on your pc. Sync using your usb cable and run the included customruu.exe file to flash back the original htc splash screen.

Hello, i have a htc hd2 on tmobile, but the phone its self isnt marked as t-mobile anywhere on it.
I selected to mobile
htc.com/uk/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=297&cat=2&dl_id=936
and entered my S/N but it said my model isnt supported!
Why is this? will it do any harm to get the rom elsewhere and download it anyway? im guessing the S/N check is there to make sure that i dont download it for a reason.
Is there anywhere i can get the 1.72 rom for mmy phone? i am currenttly on 1.66 rom.
Thank You
i also have a HD2 without any branding visible, yet when i entered my s/n it went straight through...
however, the 1.72 rom i downloaded was a tmobile branded rom...perhaps the s/n are pre-registered to tmobile from the htc factory???
UK Vodafone
Here is the link for the Vodafone 1.77....

could i please have the serial number youve used so i can download? i dont see what the difference is between mine and a t-mobile bought one, the hardware and software is still the same.
go look in rom development section, leo official roms thread, first post first link, all the branded and unbranded stock roms.
sorry, i cant find the s/n in that post, there are hundreds of pages!
I want to be safe and download direct from theri website really.

I think he was trying to direct you here..........
You'll find the rom you need in here without having to use a s/n...
They're exactly what you'd get from the HTC site, for some reason the download from HTC keeps cutting out so I'm just getting it from here.
Hope that helps......
ok, thank you very much!
ive just downloaded the TMO UK 1.72 and tried flashing it, but i recieve an invalid vendor ID error message.
I recieve a text from t-mobile today, telling me that i can update my phone to this rom, so i dont see why it shouldnt be compatible!
Any way of forcing it to flash?
p.s i bought this phone online as a generic phone from mobilephonesdirect.co.uk.
I am on contract with t-mobile
any ideas?
what is the HTC_HD2_RUU_Leo_HKCSL_WWE_172 rom?
It over 395 people have downloaded it, is this a generic one? it seems to be a higher version to the tmobile one which i have been advised to update too.
Thanks
As far as I know wwe is the generic one, i cant give you an answer as to whether thats the one you need or not, if it wont let you flash the T-Mo rom then I'd guess you need the wwe, like I said I'm not sure though.....
ok, ill see how it goes. It is slightly annoying tho, does the t-mobile rom give you better reception? im just thinking that if i switch to a generic rom, then there wont be the specific t-mobile radio anymore. (if there is such a thing!)
I get the same error message... Invalid vendor ID!...
.............................................
Omg whats happened! My phone has got stuck on the htc screen!!
It didnt even flash anything it said! What can i do!!??
Sorry to hear that, i notice your other post saying a hard reset fixed it....
I guess your going to need to read through a lot of threads to find out which rom you need for your phone, the answer will be in here somewhere......... sorry i cant help you any more than that...
