IPL 1.27.0001
SPL 1.11.0000 (used the USPL to unlock CID before)
Before Bricked, I successfully updated many versions of ROM, and the last operation is WM6.1.
And I tried MTTY tool, when I tried the command 'DOCTEST', but failed...
Cmd>doctest

Can anyone help me out? what's happened on my HTC3300?

Brother, there is no fix for this! no one on this forum knows **** about this problem. Everyone tries to help but there is no one who realizes the actual problem and knows a fix to this.
I finally sent my device to HTC Service Center and they replaced the motherboard. Luckily, my handset was in warranty! I should be receiving my Artemis in a couple of days.
I suggest, even you do check out your nearest SC.
That is the only fix, I know of!!!
Hello. I'm having major issues installing Touch-IT wm6.1 19199.1.0.0 - Full. I've installed at least 5 ROMs on my phone and have never ran into any issues.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Are you trying to flash an LZX compressed ROM through Activesync instead of via your SD card? Sounds like you are.

Please let me know the solution

will appreciate your concern
thanks
Regards
Faraz Feroz
as i said on the other post
well you have to get the original ROM for your device.. see their website.. it should be there for free. or try to get it from anyplace.. (the original rom)
and then flash it using SD Card flashing
info for flashing it by that are here:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index..._Card_Flashing
hope it will work
i think you can get it from here
http://www.tm-phonedownloads.com/sd_compact3.html
if WM6 did not work.. try WM5
thanks i m downloading it...but tell me one thing if there is a software issue then why isnt ther any display i mean no backlight no display no charging led
having same problem with both WM5 and WM6 upgrades!!
"error occur : invalid update tool
this update cannot be used for your pda phone, please get newer update utility"
i think that becuase the bootloader , ISP or one of these stuff are corrupted.. don't know.
and as i told once i got my artemis completely dead
and finally i got it fixed by putting the ARTEIMG.nbh in SD card as they said in the wiki and then by pressing the camera button and the power.
and it started flashing it as the SD card flashing but it took about 30 mins .. and there was three phases in the flashing progress which it was the first time i see.
having same problem with both WM5 and WM6 upgrades!!
"error occur : invalid update tool
this update cannot be used for your pda phone, please get newer update utility"

did you flashed it by SD card or RUU?
if you used RUU try by SD card flashing
did u get the same prob? i mean the phone seems to be dead? if so...there is a hope then
well...i used RUU simply downloaded it and tried to install by setup,,, dont know about card flashing but will try
where can i find that NBH file?
do u have that .NBH file?
you have to extract the file you using a program like winrar
there will be few files.. one of them is the nbh
that's how i got the nbh file.
and about the SD card flashing is here...

Hi!
So.. My HTC Hero GSM has some issues that need to be repaired. Touchscreen not working in the lower part of the screen, constant headset-icon, trackball not working good. So I've contacted my repair center and they told me to send it in. So I want to restore my phone to as close to original as possible to be on the safe side.
The problem is I can't use the official RUU_Hero_HTC_WWE_2.73.405.5_WWE_release_signed_NoDriver.exe(or any other version), without getting an error 155(apparently it has something to do with the rom not having correct filesize).
It doesn't matter what rom I'm currently using; Modaco, Villain, different kind of generics, but nothing affects the outcome.
I got a feeling it has to do with the recovery image I use(RA 1.6.2) or Hboot version(.0007), but I can't seem to flash a new one. Recovery flasher gives me "Backup FAILED: could not run command.", and since my HBOOT is .0007 I can't use remote command from fastboot to restore original.
1. Is it possible to downgrade HBoot from recovery mode? If so, does anyone have a update.zip I can use?
2. Could error 155 has something to do with the computer/OS im using?
3. Anyone has any other suggestions what I can try to restore?
Currently using:
HTC Hero GSM
Generic 2.73.405.38 (1.5)
Baseband 63.18.55.06OU_6.35.15.01
HBoot 1.76.0007
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Edit: Solved!
For anyone having issues with Error 155(CID-checks fail, perhaps?) or 171(USB fail) while trying to restore a rooted HTC Hero to stock with an official RUU-exe, this is what worked for me where nothing else did:
- Create Goldcard
- Extract ROM.ZIP from the Official RUU exe you want to use. I downloaded it from their main site
- Rename to HEROIMG.zip
- Boot to flashboot mode (Volume down + Power on)
- Flash.
- Reboot and enjoy your new stock HTC Hero.
1. Yes. There is an engineering hboot over at modaco (v2007).
2. No idea. You could just try re-downloading the RUU and doing an md5 check on it, might have been corrupted during download.
3. I forget what 3 was and I can't check cause I'm posting through tapatalk.
Hi!
Thanks for your fast reply.
I successfully flashed Hboot with 2007 and later with 0004, but it didn't make any difference when I tried to run the official RUU. I still get error 155 ("Unknown error").
I have since double, triple and quadruple-checked the download to make sure I've got the right RUU. And since I download it from HTCs official site, in the country where it is bought, it shouldn't be an issue. All the downloads I've made is also the same size..
I guess my last resort will be to try to flash the stock recovery image manually.
Anyone have that one lying around?
Du you have HTC Sync installed? Usb debugging on in the phone? Try flashing the RUU, when in fastboot. (VOLDOWN+ON)
I'm not sure what error 155 is.
HTC Sync installed, enabled on the phone. And the green little icon is green and the phone says connected. Usb debugging is enabled.
I will try starting in fastboot mode brb.
That didn't work either.
Still got error 155 Unknown error.
I also tried to restore my original recovery image in fastboot:
fastboot boot cm-hero-recovery.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
An this is what it said:
Downloading 'boot.img' ... FAILED (command write failed (Unknown Error)

The "unknown error" appears even here. Could it be that my phone is so broken it cant write to that area?
If you have access to recovery
Try;
HTC Generic 2.73.405.5 (update.zip)
http://www.romraid.com/paul/hero/update-hero-generic-2.73.405.5-signed.zip
if that fails try;
Goldcard Method
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=572683&highlight=gold+card+method
if that fails try;
...... try the first 2 first then post back results. (Might be worth trying on another computer because unknown error 155 sounds like there could be an issue somewhere with the pc. Maybe build an XP vmware?

I did it, and now have a goldcard. Unfortunately I still get error 155. I also tried all this from a different computer than before. This time with win 7, but with no other result.
I guess next step will be to try it from XP. I will setup an virtual pc later and try it, but I have to admit I'm not hopefull... This is getting annoying.
Any other way you guys can think of? And I REALLY appreciate your help, this is driving me mad!

HEROIMG via fastboot maybe?
But isn't that the same as using recovery mode to flash a rom?
As I stated previously I want to get my phone as close to stock as possible(ROM, Radio and recovery). Can this be done with HEROIMG? Am I missing something here?

I do believe... if you use the rom.zip taken from when you launch the RUU (remember to unhide hidden files) this also does radio hboot e.t.c. I did it with the tmobile rom and it did update radio. Rename it to HEROIMG.zip, put it on the root of the sdcard, boot into fastboot and it will find it and flash.
This is the contents of a rom.zip direct from an RUU i did tonight.
@android-info.txt
@boot.img
@hboot_7200A_1.76.0007_090804.nb0

Well done... for a final outcome the error 155 means there is an issue with settings and if you get an error 155 more than likely a new windows setup will need to commence somewhere. (Install XP, Windows 7 et all. Error 171 is a usb driver issue to the phone I do believe.... glad to be of an assistance.
I don't think it has something to do with the OS. I tried the RUU .exe on three different setups; One laptop with Vista, one brand new laptop with Win7 home premium and one virtual PC with XP.
Maybe a "full" setup of XP would work, but I think it's more likely it is something else.
On the other hand, to just remove the OS from the equation solved it, so you might be right.
Oh, and the 171 error only occurred when the driver got messed up one time, so it really hasn't got much to do with my case. But this solution would work for people having that issue as well.

The errors are system related, thus when you use the HEROIMG.zip via fastboot you totally bypass the need for having a PC except to transfer files to the device. So I think it is a driver/OS issue.
EDIT: To the OP, edit your first post and add [SOLVED] to the front.... let users know there is a solution.
I hope you guys can help me, i have a G2 Touch and i'm about to try restore to stock by using SD-Card.
Problem is, when i unpack the RUU.exe (Firmware 2.73.111.26), there's no ROM.zip in it. Only thing i get is a Subfolder with several installation files and a data1.cab sized 104MB, which i can't open (nether with 7zip nor winrar)
I tried to root my htc magic and install a custom ROM.
After rooting it successfully (I followed theunlockr.com one click method), I tried to install Cyanogenmod-5 For Dream/Magic V5.0.8. When i reset, it stuck at the logo screen.
I tried wipe & reset + flash again, it still stuck. (the sd card is inserted properly)
I also tried other ROMs (Cyanogenmod 6.1.0 and other custom ROMs on the theunlockr.com). It still stuck at the logo screen.
The worst thing is: I do not have a nandroid backup.
What can I do?
Please Help~! Thanks in advance!
There are like a 1000 thread like yours.... and WE ALWAYS ask for the same thing...
Can you try to guess what it is?
Try to read the first 3-5 pages of this sub-forum.
I'm not exactly sure what answer you are looking for, but I would be willing to bet that it's not ALL the fastboot info.
Okay, you got me. That IS what you want.

This thread is going to have a 24 hours lifespan starting now unless the OP can provide to us his/her fastboot information.
To get that you have to hold the volume down key while powering on your device. You should get a white screen with text.
Type out all of the text in your reply.
Also, while your at it, give us the links that you were following so we can verify that you were following the correct information.

But I cannot sign in my gmail account. Having the same problem as forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/11867-cannot-sign-in-to-google-account/
Should I wipe data? or reflash gapps?
No... just skip all of that.. let the rom load... wait 10 min... then restart.. let it work for 10 min... now inside accounts, try to add google account.
You already did a complete wipe(the superwipe you did before). Gapps is only some applications. gapps = Google apps,, apps = applications.
I still cannot sign in gmail account after 4 hours. What could go wrong?
Problem solved! Sincere thanks to all of you for your kind help!
By the way, is it ok that I remove the zip files inside?
Yes you can delete the .zip files from your SD card but I would keep them saved somewhere on your computer in case your need to reflash later on. What did you do to fix your Google Account issue?

I did not do anything. It just worked suddenly.
I have been using new ROM for 2 days. The data connection goes on and off. I cannot sign in to google account MOSTof the time and have no access to Market. It is very frustrating.
Does anyone know what's wrong?
