Warranty got back my device back to life
Hi I bricked my device a few days back and tried all the stuff to bring it back to lifee but in vain... I finally gave up my trials and approached the service centre. They just replaced the motherboard inside and luckily everything seems fine now. They hadn't charged me anything as it was within warranty. Anyone in India if you need service centre address..

Though this site says HTC, I got my Dopod C800 serviced there...
Very few questions and cool guys.

Now I think that the reason of non flashing, even with official RUU, could be corrupted CID-block after using HardSPL on devices with low IPL/SPL. I've read thread about similar problem with Wizard. The question is: how to restore the CID block in our bricked devices? I'm not even sure if this theory with CID-block is a reason...
What do you think about such a trick:
- Run RUU on someone's working HTC device but only until the moment, when it wants you to click the last button to finally proceed with flashing. (This step is to let RUU to know that this RUU is correctly dedicated to our device). It's a kind of fake for RUU, cause our CID doesn't match the CID of ROM included in RUU.
- Next disconnect working device from the USB and connect your bricked device with launched bootloader mode
- Next click the final button to launch flashing in RUU application. If the process of CID matching was done before this step, the flasher should start and let us flash our bricked device. But I'm sceptic to this solution. If it was so trivial, everyone could flash his device with different ROMs so easy...
I can't try this trick cause I don't have working HTC. What do you think? Will it work or not?

D'you mean
working Herald or any HTC?
I have the same prob

I'm thinking about working device, exactly the same as this bricked one - in this case Herald. But all of this is only a theory. I don't have enough knowledge about the RUU flashing process.
My another idea is to swap only ROMUpdateUtility.exe, rapitool.exe and EnterBootloader.exe files from official RUU dedicated to your bricked device, with different versions of these files from another HTC devices just to test if it helps to recognize our bricked devices by RUU. Maybe the problem is wrong version of these files? But which versions are correct?
I'm just trying to find a solution to unbrick our f.....g Heralds . I know this is only a matter of time and soon or later we will know what to do. Moreover I believe that there are people, even on this forum, who know how to unbrick our Heralds but some of them don't want to do us a favour. I know what I'm talking about...

i think we can manage it via bootloader commands
i know.. i know
(at least our devices run bootloader mode, is recoverable!)
it can be flashed by SD? how?

Welcome to the club...
As far as I know, SD flashing doesn't work because of the CID-lock.

to everybody who is stuck at HTC screen. The only,and i mean the ONLY way to fix this is to find the original rom for your provider !!! belive me,i`ve tried every possible other way.
SD Card Flashing wont work coz your devices are probably CID Locked,so it goes only to 3% flashing and restarts.Finally I found original o2 ROM (German) and it worked like a charm Even the original o2 (English) ROM did NOT work,it had to be the German one,coz probably the device came with German ROM originally !!!.
So my suggestion is,stop trying to flash it with different ROM`s and spend some time finding original ROM from your provider and it has to be the same language as your provider. even if it`s WM6 and your device was originally was WM5,as long as its from your provider and same language it should flash with no problem.I spent 2 weeks to find this out ))
Good Luck to everybody ))

I have the same problem and I've come to believe that this is the only solution. Just one thing: I didn't back up ROM before I tried to flash (talk about a noob mistake).
So, I ask, I plead, I beg... can anyone tell me where to get an original Orange France ROM for the Artemis (SPV M650)?

To my knowlegde you cant backup the rom from your device. whenever you change your rom, use the USPL tool. It is a golden rule until something better is made.
Here are some tips:
First make sure you have a original factory rom from your provider/brand/etc.
Check with a soft reset if code: SPL 1.11000 appears on the the boot screen. (then it is CID unlocked) Any other number and it is locked so you have to USPL first before you change to any custom rom.
If you flash a factory rom then the SPL resets to a non SPL 1.1100 number again. Use USPL to CID unlock again.
Also avoid Vista (especially 64bit) to use the USPL tool. Do it on a windows XP machine. Also there reports of glitches in the usb connection and active sync when doing upgrades or USPL. So keep you system as clean as possible. Dont use a USB hub and disconnect any other usb devices just to make sure.
Also remove your SD / SDHC card before doing a upgrade.
Sometimes the new rom misses some stuff when flashing. When this happens just flash the rom again. But first make sure if its still CID unlocked by soft reseting and check if SPL 1.1100 else use USPL first.
Even if you did all that, there still can be things that can go wrong. So if you absolutely confident to do a custom rom then do it. Otherwise use original upgrades from your provider

If it loaded 2% and restarted and shows the tricolour. You ARE CID locked.

Use that link. Do your research.
If you cannot do the GoldCard by PC. Borrow a friends WM phone and make the gold card out of that.
for the USPL and IPL (which i believe you are asking for) can be found at

Do the research and do the work before asking silly questions. There is a million of these on XDA.

and if i flahed it by any rom wihout the radio it completes but with no gsm
i hope to find a resolve to this prop plz to make my phone alife again
thx for u all

This is maybe problem with hardware ! better to you go in service,bcs if you flashed with original rom and radio,he must to work 100%

thz alot for help but i need a solution do it by myself thx

Hi, can you please write down what is on the bootloader screen ?

hi aze2learn thx for trying help me
ok
on the boot loader screen
HERM100
IPL-1.04
HERM100
SPL-2.10.Olipro
thx alot aze2learn

Well, since you already have hardspl 2.10-Olipro, please make sure you flash WM6 (green welcome screen) or above because WM5 (blue welcome screen) for sure will make the device show 'No GSM' if it writes an old radio version. Try original rom for your device here first : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Available Original Shipped WM6 ROM Versions
It is recommended to use radio version (GSM) from your carrier. You can also try other radio (if you want to) from here : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms . Some say 1.47.30.10 is the best in terms of power consumption but maybe not suitable for others (depends on carrier/geography)
Note : Only original ROMs from HTC/carrier have radio. Cooked roms don't include radio.
All the best
ps : Only HardSPLed device will allow flashing extracted radio rom. Stock SPL will stop the device from flashing.

ok man thx alot i will try and i will tell u but tell me how to flashing it by pc or by sd
thx

Try RUU first (flashing through pc using usb cable) but if you're having problem such as error 260 (no connection), you can use sdcard method since you already HardSPL your device
ps: sdcard method only works on FAT32 filesystem and non-SDHC microsd.

i tried during the pc and it gives me error 262
and i tied during the sd stoped on gsm step
i dont know what to do??????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi,
Extract RUU_inside.exe (use winrar or 7zip) RUU_inside.exe is in the original HTC ROM package ... get the RUU_signed.nbh and put into a new folder.
Then use RUUWrapper from here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298737 and put it in the same folder with RUU_signed.nbh
Boot the device in bootloader mode. In RUUWrapper, tick 2.10 (new bootloader) and is it Hard-SPL. Follow the instruction.
All the best
ps : please check your PM

hi man
its stoped again on 11%
my mind will be pumped and i dont know what to do
i do everything i think
i will be crazy

maybe your battery drained out already? if so, try turn off the phone, charge it for 30 mins and try again.
ps: have you read your PM?

its already full charged

Please don't worry too much. Since your device already HardSPL, your device can still be revive.

i hope it will be aliveagain but how?
i am too tired from searching on the internet about this prop
and i didnt get any resolve for it
i think u have mor experiance than me and u can search more deeper than me
i will be here tmorrow maybe u can find a selution
i am from egypt and u ?
