E610: difference between 20# software versions - Optimus L3, L5, L7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

After a failed ROM flash I KDZed a L5 610v back to stock 4.1.2. When connected to the computer the LG tool said there was an upgrade available; I let it do it, and it seemingly changed very little that I can see - the startup logo (branded Vodafone), background (unbranded), and the software info, which went from "E61020a-222-10" to "E610v20e-222-10".
Is there any difference between the two other than the branding - and if not, what does the branding imply other than the startup logo and similar silliness?

Having some trouble with AKU3.2, device reboots on RUU.exe

Hi guys
I'm using an orange switzerland branded m5000, and I use buzz's unlocker yesterday to remove the SIM Lock on it. Appears top have worked fine, as I can use my wifes SIM card in it now(different provider).
However, I'm now trying to flash AKU 3.2 (Ivan's version) to my device. I let it connect to my PC with activesync, then start the RUU.exe. The screen that shows me the current versions, and what I'm upgrading to appears, and I click next. Then the small window with "gathering information from device" appears, and stays there. After about 30 seconds, my m5000 spontaneously reboots. Consequently, after another minute or two, I get a 101 connection error from the RUU.exe.
What am I doing wrong here?
Besides: My device currently (post-unlocking) claims to be running Radio V. 0.00.00, and the AKU3.2 upgarde screen claims it will only upgrade the CE Version, is this right? Am I now forever stuck of Radio V 0?
It worked now, please ignore
Ok, it worked. I dl'ed and flashed the 3.2 JasJar Rom first, and then Ivans beta14 worked. It's really quite a noticeable speed up. Thanks to everyone who spent their precious time developing these things.
Now all I have to do is get my providers MMS and GPRS and 3G settings back to normal.

Where can I get my brick wizard fixed?

Does anyone know where I can get my Cingular Wizard fixed? My phone froze one time, and I had to take out my battery and after that I was unable to boot up again. Is there a HTC place in hong kong that does that or in NOrth America?

If you really had a G4 device and you did all of the above then you have bricked it. G4's cannot be CID Unlocked via lociwiz (unless something recently changed), and flashing IPL/SPL 3.08 is NOT compatible to a G4 device and that will brick it.
Sorry, but you shouldn't flash a phone (especially if its not even yours) if you don't understand what you are doing. Without further details (and please don't use all caps. I don't care how "scared" you are) there is nothing else anyone here can do to help you. You need to give complete details of what the phone does now. If you can get to (and see) the tri color screen, then its probably recoverable. If the phone won't turn on, then its probably bricked.
Can I ask why you were flashing your brother's phone? Did you have permission?

Like my previous post, how about some details. Does the phone go to the Bootloader (tri color) screen? If it does, what are the numbers and info on that screen?
I loaded some huge apps to my storage card tried to use the app. which froze my device. the wizard turns on. but shows the first screen with the phone info. then the second screen that say windows mobile. but it always stay on the second screen
I'd just use the terra thing to format it completely and reflash to a new rom

Help! Upgraded my p4300 with TNT, now phone boots to TSOD! PLEASE HELP

I just realized I should post this here instead.
Hello,
Today I upgraded my G4 HTC p4300 using the TNT ROM Pro+HTC Home. It is unlocked, but the splash screen was branded for Unicel.
The Upgrade seams to have worked on the computer end of it, but When I boot my device, it shows HTC Mobility logo, then goes to the Red, Green, Blue screen. If I plug it into the computer with USB, I hear the USB connection sound, and USB appears in the lower left hand corner of my p4300.Active Sync does not see my device. I tried Re-flashing the ROM and it gives me an error. I have also tried the Wizard love ROM Spanish version(couldn't find the English) that resulted in a connection error.
What should I do?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Who is your cell carrier?? I only ask because you're one of the only other people that call your phone the "P4300" I've had mine for over a year and know everything their is to know about it. I've discovered through trial and error and befriending an HTC big shot that the P4300 Wizard was the generic version of all the Wizards countless incarnations. My point is I've got the correct roms and ext roms to get you back in business. let me know.

audiovox 5600 stuck on bootloader

I tried to downgrade my 5600 to wm2003se that was the original os and I had upgraded it to wm6 but want to go back and since I didnt make a backup of the rom I used the updater from Orange to try and downgrade it after following some instructions I saw on a website.
But now the phone just show the orange uk startup screen then goes into the bootloader I tried using the imate wm2003se update it updated successful but when I start the phone a get the imate startup screen and then it goes into the bootloader again. Another thing is that the updaters when I ran them (I reran the orange uk updater so the orange rom is now on the phone again) both show that there was no rom loaded to the phone, all the information the phone model and the other info are completely blank.
I've tried looking up how to fix it but the only solution all the sites give me I cant do cause I dont have a sd card and even if I did my computer cant read sd cards and I dont have a sd card reader either.
I'm sure your wondering about the version of my bootloader it version 1.x, sorry I cant be more specific cause the phone screen does work properly and the only way to get it to show properly most of the time is to push the end call button up and hold it there. A solution to that would appreciated as well but right now I'm more wanting a solution for the bootloader problem I'm having.

Crashed T-mobile MDA Vario

Hi, all.
I've been reading a lot through these forums and I've learned a lot, but I don't seem to be able to fix this by myself. I have a Dutch T-mobile MDA Vario (WM5) that's over 3 years old so I'm not worried about voiding warranties.
A few weeks ago, my phone didn't want to boot anymore. I don't know if it's related, but around a week before the crash it had problems with finding the SIM card.
When I boot, it quickly gets stuck at the white background with gray/pink squares and the T-mobile logo. This is the data that's given (after a few factory resets):
IPL 2.21
SPL 2.21
GSM 02.19.11
OS 2.21.2.5
After that, it... just... hangs..., no matter how long I wait.
I tried to reset it to factory defaults (holding the three buttons + power button). The resetting seems to work, but then it gets stuck at the same screen again.
I came along forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298613 <-- this thread, and I figured that I might as well try to flash it. I mean, if it doesn't work, well then at least I've tried. As you notice I'm new at this. I'm not afraid of electronics but flashing phone roms is new to me.
I can startup to the bootloader menu (photobutton + power) which tells me:
IPL 2.21
SPL 2.21
So, I've got a G3 device.
When I connect the USB cable to my pc (Win XP SP3), my PC gives the normal sound when a USB device is connected. the MDA nicely adds the text USB to the lower left of the screen. Nice. ActiveSync doesn't recognize it, but that seems to be normal, or so I read.
Following the thread's advice, I've downloaded the needed files and want to install them as ordered. First in the list is the Wizard_Love rom, so I go ahead and try to install it (from c:\XDA\final\). The first download link is broken, but at the end of the tread there is another link( to Wizard_Love_2.26.10.2_WWE_Novii_CF2.rar). The installer is in Spanish(?) but if it can give me back my phone, I'm fine with it. Besides, the readme is in English...
Then, after a short while, it gives me the following error:
ERRORE [300]: STRUMENTO DI AGGIORNAMENTO NON VALIDO
and some more text. I don't speak Spanish, but strumento will translate as instrument and non valido will undoubtedly be 'non-valid'.
It seems somehow that the communication still has some issues. I have just charged the battery, so that's not a problem here.
Do I have a wrong wizard_love rom? If yes, where can I get a proper one?
If not.. What else can I do?
Thanks in advance. You'll be my hero
You could always try to flash the original ROM and see if that gets you past the boot screens.
The installer language translates to Italian, ERROR [300]: INVALID UPDATE TOOL.
Try a different No ID Installer package, not the whole ROM just the No ID Installer.
Thanks! You have no idea how happy you made me..
Your comment on installing the original ROM sent me in the right direction. I went to t-mobile.nl and looked for updates (I shoud've done this much earlier). Where the hard reset failed, the official update worked flawless. I have yet to do the radio update, but I have my phone back! phew, 3 weeks with my old (by now- fossil) Samsung X100 made me realize how much I love this phone.. The QWERTY keyboard to begin with, my agenda, programs...
