plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz can someone help me i want to flsh my spv c500 i already have flashed it from 3 to 4 with a professonal rom provided by orange can someone tell me if i can go strate to 6 and if possible make a quik video also i am tesing this rom properly for http://www.coolsmartphone.com if this rom works near enough right i can give you the sites admins contact who will buy the rom off you but he can only pay through paypal he brought a good wm5 rom for bout £190.00 so he offering about £200 for anyone with a propa video tutorialbut once you have sold it you can not post it on other sites inless its a differant rom verson so plz help me put this on my phone thisis going to ALEUT who i think has posted the best rom
Ehm. Why would anyone buy a rom for a four year old phone for £200?
I could easily make a video tutorial if you want, especially if there is a financial incentive , I've flashed loads of C500s but I still have to recommend Karhoe's guide. It is definitely the best and if you read it properly you will have no problems flashing the phone. If you want to flash Aleut's rom instead just make sure that when you come to the mtty part you use his os.bin file (which you download in the first post of his thread) instead.
plz reply

I just bought a T-Mobile XDA to be used outside the US, but I need to unlock it, after I downloaded the XDA-unlock and run it on the XDA, marks an error "unable to get unlocking code", I read many things on the forum, so I know that I have to upgrade my rom from version 3.14.40 ENG to a new one.
I do not have a Serial cable.
Please help me with this matter. Thank you
After readin carefully the instructions, I did succesfully unlocked my device.

The thing was that my rom version was 3.14 ENG (Original from T-Mobile), after I got the ROM upgrade, it did not work correctly because I was runing it from the zip file. Then, I realized that puting toghether all the files in one place might work, I extract the files to one folder and worked in the second try, because I needed to select the version (A or B) of my original ROM.
I want to say that I´m not a computer genius, I also know how to use them properly, not programming, but in my company I have 10 people that now how to (I Develop software for companies here), but I know PDA´S better than them, so reading carefully and oing things calmly worked perfect for me.
Thank you for your concern about me.
Now I´m very happy with the Pocket PC Working.
I´m from Mexico, and here are not yet available, so I need one for my work and Palm OS is not good enough to me. I have good relations with a Cellular company here, but they a re going to release them in May next year, to late for my projects and displays
hi
I doo have the same problem
can u tell me what instructions do you follow
or where are the instructions
Well this is my first post and i am making it why ? .... Yes you got it right i bought something called Qtek S100 and after some research i got here.
And now as any new person having a toy im wondering what the toy can do ...
After having read some of the posts in the forum im going to make some questions i find pertinent.
1) Do all the brands that sell this have the same hardware so i can flash it with just about anyone´s flash roms ?
2) Whats the procedure for doing the above operation and what to do if all goes wrong and the image gets "screwed"? New Phone ?
Thanks in advance.
Hi Trystam,
I try to reply:
1) No. It is better to download and flashing the correct written ROM to the device. Usually there is a checking on the program to find out wheter the ner ROM is for specific device.
2) Usually as long as we can have Bootloader not screw up, we can always flashing the ROM. It is means safe.
If Bootloader fail, we need to do flashing direct (open the case). A bit difficult and need people expert enough to do it.
So, it is better to read opinion use the correct ROM and tools, and decide carefully wheter you need to flashing another ROM to the device.
Hope can help.
Best regards,
Arto.
I flashed my T-mobile Compact with Qtek rom and it works.... all these brands have same hardware, because their one and only manufacturer is HTC..

Hey guys,
I'm another happy member who bricked his Herald . I didn't unlock the thing before the flash and that is where it went wrong i think... not having an original rom, i'm stuck with a nice colorfull bootloader screen...
Now, for the good news, i have a friend, with an Herald from the exact same provider, bought 1 week later as i did... now my question:
How do i get his rom on my pda?
(if i manage to get the rom, i'll be happy to post it up here (Dutch vodafone WM5 )
Cheers

No chance.
You cannot flash a dump to a bricked device. You need the original RUU.
Because you cannot signe the dump os.nb to a .nbh and therefore the dump is useless.
Sorry. But check the wiki if there is an RUU for you. Normally there should be all you need!!
what about Sprite Clone?
It's an imaging tool that works like Ghost or Acronis True Image, but is designed for mobile phones. It says you can take an image of a device and dump it to another device, just like you would with a desktop PC.
If it works, then it would be the best way I can think of do a complete backup and restore of your phone (or phone to phone) provided it doesn't require an agent on the phone, or some other OS-level operation to work (meaning the phone would have to already be working).
Down side, though, is that they appear to only sell it for a minimum of 20 devices at 300 dollars a pop....
@papamopps : tried them all....
@psyop1 : damn that app sounds nice, couldn't get it form my "sources" though, so requested a trail version... lets see where it gets me

Dannoz: I'd be interested in hearing how it works, because it may be the solution to many problems with phone dumps/backups!
Hello i need info or at least somebody tell me where to get info on how to flash the HTC XV6900 to Metro Pcs fro Sprint. I searched but could not find a definitely answer or a write up on how to do this.I just bough one from a guy on craigslist after reading it can be flashed and since my phone is dying anyway seem like the perfect moment.
I know i can pay someone else to do this but after my wife and 2 girls saw mine and watched a video on you tube of a flashed Touch they all want one so paying $60+ to get it flash plus the cost of each phone is not possible.Also there are people selling the software for flashing but i don't want to pay for something that may not work or maybe can't do myself after all.
Also want to note that i'm using linux on my laptop but have windows on my wife desktop.

Guys, read this link HERE it will help you out with what to read up on, what files are needed and where to get them and a step by step on what you will see when flashing
This is for a Custom WinMO 6.5 ROM from NFSFAN though so if you need something else you can still use it just some of the examples may not relate but the idea is still the same
As for the Linux user - do this via your wifes desktop (I love Linux just have Windows all over my house for work as well)

People keep posting links to the HTC Elf/Elfin could someone use the steps to SIM and CID unlock their HTC Vogue using the steps for the Elf/Elfin without it bricking?
As of right now, there aren't any steps(that I'm aware of) for flashing/ CID unlocking the HTC Touch.
The best instructions I found were here. Just scroll down to where it gives instuctions for the Touch. There are even instuctions for flashing ROM via memory card(which I can tell you do work).
Basically you'll need the correct coke unlocker and the new ROM. First you flash the cokeman unlocker that matches your situation and then when that's finished flash the ROM. I recommend flashing the new ROM at least twice before you start using it. I flashed the new NFSFAN's v8 Windows 6.5 ROM three times and it's working way smoother than last time when I was running v7....which I only flashed once. The best advice I can give you is to have patience.
Hi All,
After spending a large amount of time trying to find a solution for the SPL 1.24 to hack. Mainly the Telstra Australia WM6.5 Upgrade. Combining the many efforts of XDA Members I finally got a proper working hack going. I thought I'd post it straight away for the rest of the world to see.
First what you need to do is download the WM6.5 Upgrade from the HTC Website. When you open this you need to go to Start - Run - Type %TEMP% Find the location where the extractor has dumped the files and rename RUU_Signed.nbh to MAPLIMG.nbh. Copy this to the root of the SD Card. Reset your phone into Bootloader and let the flash start. It will fail at 10% than reset itself and install it properly.
From here you need to download a cab clearsecurity.cab which is suppose to be for the Samsung Blackjack 2 but it enables the HTC Snap to be hacked.
From there download the desired Custom Rom and run 1.19 auto.bat and watch the screen go black and the custom rom install.
Any Success???
Hi, can anyone let me know if they have had the same success???
Hi Roger,
Thanks for the post as it worked a treat for me, I was able to flash the HTC Snap after following the above steps. One thing I didn't do is backup the Telstra spl 1.24, Do you know where I can get a copy from?
Once again thanks for the post.
Mr.D
THis looks great. I'd love to try this now, but before I do, I'm hoping you might be able to answer a question of mine, to ease my mind:
If you need to reinstall the original Rom and SPL 1.24, is there any way the the Telecom company can see that the phone's firmware has been previously changed?
Thanks.
Flashing back to Telstra 6.5 Rom
Hey guys, I believe you can just download the latest 6.5 Telstra Rom for the snap from the HTC website. I havern't tried it since I have hacked the phone and the only reason why you would obviously do it is for warranty. Actually I also found out that you can get WM 6.1 rom but you need to contact HTC and you can upload it from there FTP. Sorry I can't provide any more assitance maybe when my phone breaks and I need to flash it back I will post up what I have done.
Hi Roger
Thanks for the reply. This is what's stopping me from trying to flash the ROM. Knowing whether I can restore it back to it's original condition without the telecom company knowing it's been flashed. The phone is only new and if it does develop a hardware problem and I had to send it back, I'm sure they won't fix it under the warranty if they can see that it's been flashed.
If as you suggest, it's just a matter of re-flashing it with the original rom, then that's fantastic. But, I'd really like some firm confirmation before going ahead.
The ROM developed by ookba looks AMAZING and I can't wait to try it.
Thanks.
Flashing Advice
Hi Badcam,
I have owned many HTC phones and I have to say the Snap is probably the most durable out of them all. I find with the Snap and the newer models of the HTC phones from australian carriers they really lock them down and you don't get the full functions as what you pay for. Worst of all they infest the phone with all these carrier features that are not needed.
It is really your choice flashing your phone. Every single phone I have had I have flashed and never had problems only when I drop them lol. For warranty purposes you can always flash back to orginal rom and just tell them thats how you got it. They really can't say much. But I did abit of reading and when you do upgrade the rom from HTC website it does install SPL 1.24 back meaning if you want to flash it back you need to go through the hack again.
Hope this has been helpful.
You said it Roger.
There's so much Telecom rubbish on this phone, it's not funny.
Well, I'll give it a go this weekend. If you're happy it's going to work, I am too. Thanks very much for your advice.
Hey do you guys know how much (in USD) a Telstra SNAP is out there if you buy it outright? Can can anyone ship me one to the States?
What about a TelecomNZ one?

NZ$499.00 is around US$361

I'd be happy to sort something out for you. PM me if you'd like.

Thanks but that's kinda rough. I get the MAPL100 (Dash 3G) here for $100. Looking to get a SNAP S523 for around that, even used. Let me know if you run across one. Thanks!
It's atrocious. Believe it or not, that's a good price. It's just come down NZ$200. Of course, I had to buy my two days before the reduced it.
I'll keep an eye out.

Hi, can anyone tell me how to get the device into bootloader mode? i have followed the steps, but getting it into bootloader mode and then letting it hardspl from the sd is not happening :-( THANKS!!!
Can't find clearsecurity.cab. Can anyone tell me where to find it?
Attempt to answer questions lol
Benzin,
Type in google "clearsecurity.cab download" and find the mediafire link
If you have problems please let me know. Maybe XDA-Developers already have it posted.
wcampagne,
So you are getting into bootloader right, its just not picking up the MAPLIMG.nbh file. You have renamed RUU_Signed.nbh to MAPLIMG.nbh. Also a train of through if you have tried applying previous Roms before hand I suggest you go to %TEMP% file and remove anything that is there that has reference to RUU_Signed or the rom at all. You are probably uploading the wrong file as it might be cached. As I said its just a train of thought. If you have any more problems please feel free to post up and I will figure out a fix for you.
Ookba,
Ebay is your best bet. I got my handset for $150 AUD brand new on bid.
Works great for me and I thank you so much!
