Network problem after upgrading - P3300, MDA Compact III upgrading etc.

Hi everybody,
I have a big problem with my HTC P3300 , precisely M650 by Orange.
Yesterday I had upgrade my rom with ROM/Kitchen-WM6.5-23071R1-WWE/NLD/FRA/PLK/GER/CZE/PTG/ITA/SPA/DAN/SWE/RUS/PTB/CHT/CHS
but before i folowed some intructions for upgrading my rom with 1.11.cmon uspl
Before start something please update to the latest official build! You can find download link on xda wiki! I recommend to remove sd card and sim card before flashing!
First: download this: link and start start_uspl.exe (before it connect your phone to pc)
Second: if thats started you will see the bootloader on your phone screen
Third: start the RUU Updater program and flash up the rom what is included
Fourth: after restart download this: link and flash with RUU updater

I try to upgrade mu rom radio with Artemis Radio 3.08.90 and install Artemis_USPL and nothing ....
EDIT: I tried with an another sim card card on an other operator and it is ok ..... wTf !!
Could you help me please. Thx in advance.

i installed an app an asked me to restart the device.. i did
and now it's stuck on the splash screen
IPL 2.27
SPL 2.27
GSM 02.44.11
OS 2.27.1.1
and the orange brand wallpaper
what can i do? i tried to reset it and format it

"Press Send to restore factory default,
Other keys to quit"
ok.. send it is
"Format FAT Partition
Format failed"

ps: i just got it from a friend, i don't think my phone is cid-unlocked..
and i'm stuck at the splash screen and nothing to do
please help me.. tell me what can i do
Ouch.
Sounds like the built-in flash memory is bad. I'm not sure what you can do about that, short of replacing it.
No offense Reverend, but where did you hear that? Its just bad flash man! Simply enter the bootloader mode, and re-flash a new rom to your device. What program where you trying to install?

something from a pocket freeware site.. "XDA-Team_Manilla2D.CAB"
it's a touchflo 2d app for today screen.. after installing it, the sistem wouldn't boot up anymore. so i tried to format, soft reset, to restore the system..
the formatting started and then gave an error and shut down immediately. i didn't even catch a glimps of that error 'cause it restarted.. and then the problem. it won't go past the operator splash screen
tried to reformat.. would't start.. format failure
..simply wow.. don't get me wrong , but i didn't knew there was a bootloader screen until this happened.. i dug up about this problem on the forum, but i can't solve it.. i don't know that much about flashing.. isn't the wizard supposed to be cid-unlocked to be able to flash it with a new rom?
or there's a rom that doesn't require the pda to be unlocked?.. cause' i think mine isn't. and, since i can't get it to boot up the os, i can't cid-unlock it after the tutorials i've found here..
and i don't want to bury it, yet
Oh you poor sole...that program that you tried to flash is notorious...I did the very same thing to mine just the other day. It doesnt work with the Wizard yet for some reason.
Now, onto your problem, yes-I think that your Wizard IS INDEED CID locked, and if that is the case, search for the Wizard LOVE ROM and flash it. It can be flashed with a CID unlocked device. Head into your bootloader mode, then start up the RUU flashing program on your PC that is included with the ROM. After it flashes, you can use the Wizard Service Tool, which is also availible via searching to CID and SIM unlock your device, and then you can put any ROM that you like onto it. I hope that helps somewhat!
If you can get it into bootloader mode, you can recover. If the phone is not unlocked, you will have to load the original service ROM for that phone.
You MIGHT get lucky by just flashing the IPL/SPL back though, now that I think about it...look at the "How to Remove HardSPL" thread for the most popular IPL/SPL sets. If this works, you won't have to put all of your custom settings and programs back on.
Myrddin Wyllt
Plz note all the IP/SPL posted in the thread 'How To Remove HardSPL' are for G4 devices and they are not meant to be flashed to a G3 device,if flashed will certainly 'Brick' the G3 device.
Whereas,here ,he has a G3 device with IPL/SPL 2.27,flashing those IPL/SPL (Bootloaders) means instant death of the phone.
koolariz
Simply,download the official stock rom of the carrier and flash it in Bootloader mode to recover back to its default status,than downgrade to IPL/SPL 1.xx to CID unlock the phone,how to CID unlock the phone, read and follow this guide carefully :-

If you have said the truth... you've got a G3 device cause your ipl spl are 2.27.
So try to install this original ROM... is for Tmobile WWE so try it.... http://rapidshare.com/files/38880130/ruu_prodigy_226102_22610105_022511_tmous_wwe_ship.exe.html
Or search on tutorials tu unlock and upgrade the wizard Love ok?
Good luck men...
And please please please read and ask before do anything, BTW now the only you can do is to runn this ROMs cause you cant get your original carriers ROM.
If this dont works... please read the thread from upgrading forum in this wizard subforum that said something like Stuck on splash screen solution DYI or something the tuttorial DEV is called Drug_store.

10x a lot.. i hope it won't die on me..

i tried the O2 rom [12.18.3.103] u gave me. it doesn't start flashing.. 0% and then
quoting:ERROR "This NBF file cannot be used for your PDA phone. Please get newer NBF file."
ps: The orange one on the xda ftp server doesn't work .. it's archived and parts are missing..
Hmmm,ok,lets try this out,download 'Button's Rom 1.05' from the link posted below and check if this works out.
Otherwise,you'll have to look for official Stock Rom (Romanian),which was running on the phone before.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index...0for newbies
i'll try this one.. for now.. ps:your link is broken?
i just have another question.. i have a friend with the same wizard as mine, i mean in the same carrier.. is it possible cu get his rom? to dump it on SD card.. or something?
so that i may flash that rom?
LE:
i found another thing on a DIY
If you got IPL/SPL 1.xx go to G3.3. If you got 2.xx go to G3.4
G3.3 Download button rom and flash it to your device. Your device should startup again after doing this. Go to G3.5.
G3.4 Download wizard_love rom and flash it to your device. Your device should startup again after doing this. Go to G3.5.

should i try the wizard_love rom?

also try this one :-
xda_miniS_LaunchRom
http://rapidshare.com/files/43423464/Xda_MiniS_LaunchROM_v154102.exe
and yes! you can also try Wizard_Love _Rom.
Now,its possible to back up the rom from your friend's phone,but it also have to be CID unlocked first and your device shud also be CID unlocked to flash it from the sdcard (MTTY) method.
pfff (
i've updated the rom with the Wizard_Love_2.26.10.2_WWE_Novii_CF2 and now i have a blue sci-fi splash screen with "AKU 2.3" in the top-right corner..

won't boot up
and if i try to format, same error.. Format Failed.. so here i am again
hmmmm,try a Hard Reset,hope it works or try other roms I have posted above.
Do you have any sdcard inserted in the phone right now,take it out before flashing any rom.

dude.. that's what i've been trying hard reseting it.. and i get the same error each time i try it "Format Failed"
no sd inserted.. i took it out a while ago.. cause i read on the forum to flash without it.
i begining to get desperate over here
i'll try other roms..
what else can i do than hope this works
Also take out if any sdcard or mini sd is inserted in the phone before flashing,it also causes this Format Failed problem.

Hi mohammad
I assume you know your way around flashing.
I suggest going into bootloader to confirm that you have SPL 1.2 and then flashing any SPL1.2 rom from the bootloader.
make sure to remove sim and sd card

How can i remove 3LIT3 rom?

Please help!
I don't restore original rom. I don't now why. The flash run only 44% and crash.
How can i restore original rom?
The 3LIT3 rom is cid locked?
Hello,
Just download the original rom WM 6.1 and install.
Follow this Step.
1. Download HTC Official Rom from http://www.htc.com/www/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=59&act=sd&cat=all
2. Entering BootLoader - while holding "camera button", press reset. Do not release "camera button" until tricolor screen is shown
3. Run The application downloaded from step 1.
Next.Optional.
Aft this step you must make a Hard-Spl here yo will find File Hard-SPL-V2.zip http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=69875&d=1202629374
Aft Hard-Spl you can install any ROM build for Polaris.
I hope this will help you.
Well, i had similar problem.
Reflashing stoped on radio update - i think problem causes this unreleased 1.65.30.09 Polaris radio (don't remember exact error code i've got).
You will need to flash another radio - i used one of 1.59.....
Download HardSPL (there will be every thing you need to flash the radio), copy radio file into same directory, and run RUU (RomUpdateUtility).

RUU_Polaris_HTC_WWE_1.25.405.1_radio_sign_25.65.30.04_1.58.21.23_Ship.exe
You can download from the XDA ftp or from this:

It works for me.
I had the same problem. I downgrade the radio version to 1.59.44.02 and then installed the rom I wanted to rollback.
Hi there I am have a similar problem.
Mobile is O2 Orbit II (Polaris)
I Have installed Hard-SPL-V2 and 3LIT3 VI. All worked fine.
I have now tried to install the official WM6.1 rom(both O2 HTC version)and having problems. The install gets to about 34% and shows error [262] : update error
I dont have any sdcard in the device and i have dissable my firewall/antivirus
I have been able to reinstall 3LIT3 no problem so looks like installing the official roms is a problem.
I have follow the steps iby bunex but no luck.
what am i doing wrong?. I have checked to confirm that Hard-SPL-V2 is still installed

No luck The radio downgrade fails with the following error :-

POLAIMG.nbh - FAIL

i have succesfully restore the 3lit3 rom again, so still dont know why radio update is failing

artemis USPL - improvements

I was asked to patch USPL for ROM size checking when flashing via RUU, so this version does not check size even when flashing via USB. (original SPL skips the size checks only when SD flashing.)
I did this a few days ago, but didn't get around to posting it
download from attachment, enjoy! donations are always appreciated to the "To Cmonex" link in my signature
how to use it: if you already have a version of artemis USPL installed, simply flash this new version using RUU or from SD (ARTEIMG.NBH on FAT32 formatted SD)
in bootloader (tricolour mode) it should then say version: 1.11.cmon
for instructions on installing any USPL if you have no USPL yet - check out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311403 until I have more time/motivation for userfriendly packaging
more plans: if I get time/motivation I might upgrade this to be full HSPL (overwrite protection)
Well done Cmonex..!
Thanks so much.
Peoples of Artemis forum wait it long times already.
Thread Sticked.
Cheers ..!

But I dont really understand. Can Flash under vista ou seven with no drivers ?
it's the same process.
The difference is that you can flash any rom without size limits.
Before you only could do this with SD Card method.
not working
its not working
it gives the same error : invalid size
canu explain step by step plzzzz
Is you bootloader showing SPL 1.11.cmon?
i have replaced the nbh file of artemis uspl with this one
then started uspl after that once it gets over i started
ruu upgrade utility
thats the way how it is done or something else
during this process no bootloader screen comes
And where is the response to my question? ....

HTC Trophy - NEED FULL FLASH

Hi, guys.
I have real problems with my Trophy. My English is not so good, but i try to explain my problem:
1. I had HTC_Trophy with Spanish vodaphone(vodaphone logo when system starting), but it seems unlocked, because i can use it in Uzbekistan.
2. Bootloader version was 5.12.xx, and i wanted to downgrade it. I wanted to install on my phone DFT v4.
3. I done it by GoldCARD, and i got message radio update failed , update failed (in red).
After this problem i can't install any ROM's, even original SPAIN. It give me error 226: Flash Write Error on 10%. Only DFT Roms installing fully, but after rebooting device i get 7 vibro signals(anybody know what means this error 226, and 7 vibro signals).
Than my friend installed in my device Full Flash (Model ID: SPAR1000, i have Model IDC401000) by Riff Box J-tag. And my device turned ON. But camera still not working, i think that it cause wrong Model id.
And one thing else, when i wanted to install Radio separately by RUU, i've got the same Error: 226 on 98%. Well i think that something wrong with my Radio module.
Any IDEAS???
P.S. Anybody, please give me FULL FLASH for my trophy, with Model IDC401000, for Riff Box J-Tag. I really need it.
P.S.S. Languages I understand: Русский, English, Türkçe, Uzbekcha.
Thx!!!

Probably you have the wrong rom ....
See here how to find the rom for your trophy
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=924333
What i had:
Firmware revision number: 2250.21.51201.164
Bootloader version: 5.12.2250.1
164 - Vodafone_SPA operator, with CID VODAP304
I've tried to install this version, but it failed: ERROR 226: Flash Write Error.
Try building a GoldCard, and then install the Euro Spark rom into your phone using GoldCard method. This will also change its CID at the same time, and make it possible to downgrade SPL and install HSPL (custom roms).

RUU​_Spark​_HTC​_Europe​_1.10​.401​.04_Spark​_5.52​.09_RELEASE​.exe is the name of the rom, it can be found in football's Spark/SparkW rom thread. Remember, this rom might not have the launage pack you want, but you can use it as a path to installing HSPL, and then a custom rom with the language you want!
Dear TheXev, after pluging in the gold card, my device have freezed on Checking mode after Loading.??? And any ROMs - result the same.??? THX.

First rename rom on sdcard, THEN install goldcard bootloader. It seems that if you don't have the file name ready before installing the bootloader, it doesn't work right. I never had this issue, but I'm also sure I put the image on before I installed the goldcard bootloader to the SD card.
Remember, this image may not have your language pack, but you can install a custom rom after doing this.
So long as the GoldCard screen tells you it is checking the image, it should be okay. Flashing with GoldCard can take 20mins to a half-hour.
Even though I have done GoldCard on SparkW (not Spark like you), i named my image with all capital letters. SPARIMG.NBH is what I would try.
Also, maybe RUU_Spark_Vodafone_SPA_1.10.164.01_Radio_5.51.09.2 9_22.32.50.10U_by_ansar (from that ansar thread someone linked you too earlier) would be a better image to try for the downgrade.
