Problems with phone - Touch HD General

I haven't used my Touch HD in a very long time and when I turn it on now (dont remember what happened) it says upgrade ROM code error please try again. Does HTC have an upgrade for it? I live in the US and their site doesn't show anything about the phone, used europe site but gave me a no updates for that serial number. I am guessing that a stock ROM from HTC would fix this problem as the phone is not unlocked.

Shipped roms can be found here. Hope this helps.

If you receive "Upgrade ROM code error" then you will need to flash original stock rom which was on your device, i.e. not any stock rom but the original one. Your original stock rom should flash whether it says 'usb' or 'serial' at bottom of bootloader.
Link to stock roms has been provided in post above

Thanks
Thanks a lot, I haven't used that phone for probably a year so I hope that fixes it. I cannot wait to use that phone again, since I paid good money for it.

Hallo.

Now the phone find no connect.
I use an HTC BLACKSTONE.
I hope you can help me.
Sorry for my bad english.

Did you follow this guide and put either USPL or HSPL on your device first?
Before flashing anything, its always best to read the stickies (thread stuck at top of each forum which provide guides, references etc). My advice would be to read this

Sorry for what? Normally it is not necessary to open a new threat for any question that you might have, just join the different threats about a particular subject.
I guess you are new to all this upgrading stuff. First of all, and most important, is to find out whether your device is cid-locked or not. I think that it is safe to say that when you got your device through a telephone provider, like Orange or T-Mobile, at a very cheap price, then the device is locked and you should have it unlocked before flashing any ROM (except the official ones that you can download from your providers site). When you bought your device retail, at the full price (the Artemis is sold around 500 euro's), then the device is not locked.
Upgrading itself can be pretty straightforward: just establish an ActiveSync connection, run the <ROM name>.exe from your pc and follow the instructions on your screen.

Unfortunately, no, not really. On older HTC models you could find out by running the mtty tool, but it doesn't work on the Artemis. I read somewhere that on our device that whole locking (and unlocking) method is quite different than on other models. That is also why it seems so hard to develop a free unlock tool for the Artemis.
The only way you can be absolutely sure is by running the unlock tool from imei-check, but they will charge you for it.
If you just THINK that your device might be unlocked, then I would not recommend to try flashing any other than an official ROM. Of course, it is your choice and you might want to take the risk. That risk is that your phone will become 'bricked' and won't start normally. The only way out of that situation is returning it to the seller to have it restored. Some people with a bricked phone however are able to restore it themselves with the original ROM, so make sure that you have that ROM available. Some original ROMs can be found on the internet, but not all of them.
sorry but you said

Just connect the USB, let activesync make the connection and start the BAT file in the dir of the rom... wait 30min

Andreazzo,
Your Artemis, does it have a logo on the body. A logo from maybe T-mobile, Orange, Vodafone, O2 or whatever telecom provider?
If yes, the you shouldn't flash your device with v2.00.02 PV for HTC Artemis ( Crossbow Style ), because the chances are that you will brick it.
If your P3300 only has the HTC logo, then it is fully unlocked and you can flash whatever rom (flavor) you want for the Artemis.
So be aware of the fact. The life of your P3300 is in your hands.
This it is not probably true information. This it is not to end rule
My Artemis he had only logo on body. The logo of start take-off was the only HTC also. No trace T Mobile Orange O2 Vodafone. And I have brick. :{
I tried flash by bootloader however still announcement INVALID ID
Follow for voice grun. get rid (remove) CID - will not it be dust brick as I.

[Error 300] INVALID UPDATE TOOL!!! Is there any fix

Mods, Developers, Seniors...
Anyone know how to get around with the Error 300 Invalid update Tool, problem?????
I think we can donate(maybe pay will be appropriate in this case ) to the developers who bring out a fix for it.
My Device gets only into the bootloader mode. When flashing the original ROM from DOPOD SEA WM6 WWE SHIP, it gets to the progress screen and @ 0% the RUU gives the Error 300.
Tried the SD Card flash method also, no luck!
I beleive the CID area is corrupt!!!
I had downloaded a tool to change the splash screen image, didn't used it, but by mistake the EnterBootLoader.exe (SPLJump) got executed and screwed the device
Been through the forum, but no help at all
Any takers?

it may be original rom,but does it have correct cid
1.you can get right rom by registration at manufacturers site
2.you can download one from wiki or forum,but in this case you will have to cid unlock your device,you have to download artemis uspl from artemis upgrading thread and than flash any rom you want,just be carefull to flash a rom that is for artemis,because flashing any other rom will brick your device
3.uspl the device and flash the rom you mentioned

I sent my device to HTC service center and go it resolved. That is the only thing which worked for me after a couple of weeks searching in the forums and no solution. But the HTC SC buggers replaced my device entirely and gave me back an old **** device . So also keep this in mind. you won't be sure, if you get your original device back after the so called repair. HTC SC in India is super *****y, had a bitter experience!
Now I have moved to TD2, know that I was at loss, but am happy to have a shiny new TD2
Service Centre at Mumbai Sucks Big Tym....
HTC service centre at mumbai sucks big time....
they said they can't replair my cell n it has a HARDWARE ISSUE!!!
stupid lasses....
What can we do here getting the same error....
Tried MMC method, nothing!
HOW CAN THERE BE NO SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM??????????

stupid ! CID area !!! STUPID HTC ---

please help total thicko

please help im wishing to upgrade my offical rom from 1.43 to 1.48 but says my phone is not suitable??????im totally thick coming from nokia to windows,i did use search but was unable to find the answer.
thanks phil
Hello and welcome on board,
Can you post up the exact error message you are getting please?
Also read this thread...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477 which you will fond useful and come back with any questions.
Incidentally you are not a fool for asking as long as you have searched first.

hi mate thanks for the reply,when i go to the htc offical rom download,i'm asked to enter my serial number,which i do but says my device is not suitable and won't let me proceed any further??
cheers phil
got a major problem now ive tried to update to 1.48 but it crashed now i get a warning traingle on start up,and can go into bootloader screen and it says upgrade rom code error please try again???someone please help.i hope i havent bricked my phone
Is your HD2 branded? (bought it in combination with a contract?)
hi mate its on vodafone contract buts its not branded.
Hi again,
Have you tried to hard reset your phone to see if the old rom boots up again?
If it does not then you might want to reflash your existing rom onto your phone using the SD card method (look at the threads at the top of the Rom Development page to find what you are looking for).
If it works and you are still keen to upgrade the rom you need to read the threads on using either the Goldcard or HardSPL methods to upgrade.
Come back and let us know how you got on.
WB
hi mate i was having the exact same probs as the chap in the hd2 bricked thread,same messages etc and stopping at 9% i took there advice and reflashed the hpsl again which has worked a treat,i'm now a little dubious bout trying to upgrade as i don't fancy bricking it.
ive emailed htc to see why i cant upgrade from 1.43 to 1.48 seems odd it says my phone isnt suitable.
p.s thanks for the help mate much appreciated
OK, wait until you hear back from them. However if you are now up and running and have installed HardSPL, I think you will find that flashing a new radio on its own might help solve your problems.
I think if you look at the thread you were referring to (this one...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=618084), IIRC, MysticGenius runs through a procedure for doing this that helped him sort out a similar problem.
Good luck with it.
WB
PS: Lesson learned here though is to read exhaustively on the topics on here BEFORE jumping in as fixing problems later can be both time consuming, if you are lucky, and a pain in the rear. As for that horrible sick feeling you get when you think you have bricked £500 worth of phone....wouldn't recommend it to my worst enemy!

Rom upgrade for HD2 from o2 (UK) - won't let me!!!

Hi guys, anyone know the way to overcome this?
How to upgrade to a higher ROM?
Even HTC's website won't let me downloading the ROM saying that the upgrade aren't for this device!!!
Please!
p.s. sorry I'm new to winmo...
regards!
use a gold card in sd slot or just install HSPL first
wtf is a gold card? i keep seeing people refer to it but never what it is, i imagine its a sim card with a toffee penny wrapper stuck to it lol
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591314
Basicly its a sd card with its unique serial number run though some software but as its no longer free just use hspl if you dont have a goldcard.
Forget about the goldcard, you don't need one so long as you have a copy of the original rom available, which you do. Hunt it out in the official roms forum. First post, first link, 1.43 section, its listed there. Thats your backup, then instal hspl and you can flash what you like.
Your HD2 is locked to o2 (UK) ROMs only so you cant put any of the official HTC ROMs or any of the custom ROMs from the "HD2 ROM Delvelopment" forum
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=534
because of this your always be running out of date software as the phone operators are always so slow at releasing updates if they do at all.
BUT if you download HSPL from the above forum thread "[HSPL] HowTo flash everything"
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611433
and install it to your phone your then be able to put on any ROM you like. Don't worry its near impossible to muck anything up and you can always put the phone back to its original rom, just do a little reading if your still not sure.
Great Guys! HSPL helped!!! I've upgraded...shame I can't manage to download Rom 1.66 as it always crashes and the download in general is sooo slow (not the internet issue)...but maybe with a bit of patience I'll get it at the end!
Cheers once again!!!

all you o2 guys that cant down load have been able to get 1.66 from htc's site for months now this rom is purley for the forgoton few (like me) who got the phone as o2 launched and locked down (no wifi router etc) I ran this rom for a day and it nice and snappy fast but its still not wm 6.5.3 so i am back on touch-x again now the 2.07 radio in the o2 rom was quite ok in my area when I used it a few months ago but the 2.10 in my opionion is a match for recption with better battery life just my 2 cents hope it may help some of you
What about Virgin Mobile? Will they get a Rom Upgrqade???? they seems to have been left out of the loop even though they were the first (technically second) carrier of the phone.

Hi,
I will try to help, though not an expert, because few minutes ago I managed to fix a problem that looks like yours. Actually this is my first post!
What I suggest is to initialize your device by flashing a shipped rom. You can find it by googling "shipped roms" and looking for "athena"
First, download the version: RUU_Athena_HTC_WWE_1.25.405.2_1.38.00.00_Ship.exe
Then, enter the bootloader (this is the tri-colored screen), by fully pressing camera button + reset. Make sure that you see "USB" at the bottom part.
Then, run the downloaded rom.
This is a good start, as you will bring your x7500 back to life.
PS. Don't be dissapointed about the no-reply, because the device is considered old and only few people spend time for it nowadays. Just smile and be positive...
I hope I helped!
First aid thanks

I would suggest downloading and trying to install other shipped rom's from the same website. There are lots of versions/languages in there. I think that you should try the one for your preferred language.
As for me I installed the WWE because there was no rom available in Greek but I don't mind at all
There is another WWE one in "Advantage", on the devices list. Give a try!!
