Hi
My HD2 is original unmofidied one. Has stock ROM and I didn't install anything on it yet. I went to update the ROM version to 1.66 from the link posted on the first thread on this forum.
My phone is HD2 with these versions:
ROM 1.48.707.2 (71294) WWE
ROM date 11/09/09
Radio version 2.05.51.05_2
Protocol version 15.28.50.07U
Tried to run the file RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.66.405.2_Radio_Signed_15.30.50.07U_2.06.51.07_Ship
Program starts working, changes the display on my HD2 to the reb/blue/green HTC preboot screen and then displays the gauge. Going into about 2% of the process of updating the ROM I get the following error message:
ERROR [294] : INVALID VENDER ID
This Update Utility cannot be used for your PDA Phone. Please check your Update Utility.
Why is that? I thought that ROM above is stock rom unmofidied and that should flash just fine without any tweakings at all on my HD2. I don't want to mess around with my HD2, just wanted to update the ROM.
hi
you must apply HSPL before upgrading your rom ,the subject have been treated in another topic .
every hd2 is cid locked... so you can only install rom that you download from htc website using your serial number.
however you can use
1. goldcard method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=572683 to flash any original rom regardless of language/region
2. use uspl , http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=606713
it flashes any ROM using the original SPL to your device (no warranty void)
3. use hspl http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611433
you can also return to your original spl if you need it for warranty , everything is explained in that threead

Here is another new ROM from the still unreleased Cingular 8525: HTC Hermes (HERM100) branded from U.S. Operator Cingular.
ROM Version: 1.34.502.1
ROM Date: 09/22/06
Radio: 1.16.00.00
Bootloader: 1.06
As always, download link on the wiki upgrading page:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades
If you have questions be sure to read the Hermes wiki first, specially the Upgrading FAQs.
Notes on this ROM:
* See the threads on the previous Cingular ROMs for upgrading issues such as enabling video calls, band selection tab, ExtROM customizations, PTT button, etc...
-v1.30
-v1.31
-Downgrading instructions
UPGRADING INSTRUCTIONS:
* People with bootloader <= 1.04 just follow the normal procedure (run RUU twice after invalid vender ID error).
* People with bootloader 1.06 (those who have flashed the cingular 1.31 rom) need to downgrade to bootloader 1.04 first:
1) Put your device in bootloader mode by holding the side Ok button and the power button and at the same time reset with the stylus.
2) Upgrade to a ROM matching your CID, that is a ROM from your vendor (TyTN owners use the TyTN rom, dopod owners the dopod rom, jasjam owners the imate rom, etc...). This will get you back to bootloader 1.04
3) Flash the new 1.34 ROM as usual (run RUU twice after invalid vender ID error).
Enjoy
Guys, i'm at work and still haven't had time to flash it on my Hermes, so the first flashing it please update the OS build and protocol version on the wiki. Thanks
Any chance that we have release notes for this ROM uploaded as well?
Thanks.
cant run the rom file, it said file corrupted. i downloaded twice, both time it said rom file is corrupted. please re upload the rom
Tried to flash from 1.31 to 1.34 - but I get error message ERROR [294] INVALID VENDER ID
Anyone had any luck flashing 1.34
Doesnt upgrade from 1.31 - just get an invalid vender id error...
EDIT: can't downgrade either using the bootloader method - seems like we are now stuck on this rom until a solution is found!
Have you tried to restart the falshing SW without touching the hermes and without disconnecting the USB?
You are supposed to do this a second time when you get this error

Clear your cache, rom file is OK, I checked the md5sum of it.
Same here - Invlid vendor ID.
Something's fishy here. Some can downgrade and some cannot. What's your device's CID awharton if I may ask?
It makes sense that a direct upgrade from 1.31 -> 1.34 will fail. However, a downgrade to the original TyTN ROM for users having a real TyTN (CID QTEK_001) followed by an upgrade to 1.34 should work. I believe TyTN owners have been reporting success at downgrading from 1.31 although this is mystifying too as one would expect that the bootloader version downgrade should prevent this also....

Its a Orange M3100 SIM unlocked (HERM100)
let me REBOOT my pc and try again.
i cleared my cache. still got erros. and said can not unpack, file is corrupted..
@people getting invalid vendor ID:
Please report:
- which device do you have: TyTN, Vario II, SPVM3100, DOPOD 838pro, etc...
- Your device CID: QTEK_001, CDL__001, O2___102, etc... can be checked by "info 2" bootloader command, leave blank if you don't know it.
- Current ROM on your device before trying to upgrade
- Bootloader version

True - thinks this makes sense. As Orange haven't released an upgrade yet I can't test this out. Need someone that has a Dopod or TyTN to experiment...
I'm trying this now. I got the same invalid vendor ID (HTC TyTN, running 1.31), and now I'm flashing back to 1.18. This seems to be working, albeit very slowly. I'll keep you updated if I can upgrade from 1.18 - 1.34; the flash to 1.18 should take about 25 minutes.
For people on Cingular, does push to talk work on this rom? If not, then this is not the final rom.
Soon HTC will release the WM6 WWE official upgrade rom for Hermes. My device is an Orange m3100 Super CID (imei-check) with the latest rom from Orange SPV_M3100_ROMUpdate_0407.exe with
Operator version 14.211.1.611
Radio : 1.38.00.01
Protocol : 32.71.7020.12H
Rom : 2.11.61.6 (23/3/07)
Build : 15673.3.3.1
ipl : 1.01
spl: 1.09
If I want to install the HTC WM6 rom on my device, do I need to flash Hard SPL before flashing the factory rom? If I do the upgrade but don't like it, do I simply reflash the current Orange rom? I am familiar with most upgrading methods, but I am hesitant with this 1.09 SPL that Orange has built into their rom, as it has bricked many units upon attempting flashing. ...POF? MrVanx?
up, anyone?
Mate, if you use the SSPL option on a ROM from a chef on here or similar forum then you can go back to Orange easily - though it takes FOREVER to flash back, far longer than the time it says on the screen whilst it's running, but still works fine.
If you flash Hard SPL onto your phone before upgrading to a ROM then you'll have to read the instructions in the enclosed docs that came with it - or read the appropriate thread (which I can't remember the location of) for instructions on downgrading back to official ROM.
Either way, you can deffo go back to Orange. Basically, if you didn't use SSPL option to upgrade (which an official HTC ROM won't have, I wouldn't have thought) you'll have to 'tell' your Orange phone that it IS an Orange phone again before going back to original ROM. If you did use SSPL, just flash the Orange ROM and you're done.
Without the HTC ROM being released yet (or until it gets leaked and people have had a look at it) I don't think anyone will know what your options are going to be as.
(I'm no expert, mind - check ANYTHING I say against latest info on the forum and wiki by using Search function mate.)
My phone is running on
OS VERSION:5.2.23569
MANILA VERSION:2.5
ROM VERSION:Cruzer 5th WWE
Radio Version:2.15.50.14
I've had enough of using the Cruzer 5th rom already and wish to update back to the normal Official HTC ROM. I've downloaded the RUU_Updates for both 1.66 and 3.14 and both have failed in updating the phone's ROM.
The problem is that once my cpu has detected the phone.
The phone will then reset and get's stuck on the screen which has a few colors.(The one we use to check our HD2's flash version like HSPL). Then the loader on the screen of my CPU will be stuck at 0%. And guess what...before you know it...the entire operation will cancel and it will say that its not able to update my ROM. What on earth? Please help me. I'm only not able to update back to the official rom software. Apart from that,the other cooked roms which have been made available for download from the other users can be used to update my rom.
I need help. Please help me. Thank You! i look forward to your solutions!!!
You can use other roms and if you look/use the search option your answeres are here somewhere
could be a stuck radio rom, there have been several examples where the radio prevents spl and radio (and hence stock roms) from flashing.
try your CORRECT stock rom from sd card flash, if that fails its either
1 - not actually your correct stock rom or
2 - you are flash stuck. no clue how you would solve that.

I had the same problem like u 2day. All I did was instaling SPL-3.03.HSPL
At first I had two options like SPL-3.03 or SPL-3.03.HSPL to instal, that first one was making the problem that you writing of, but after I instaled SPL-3.03.HSPL I can instal other roms.

I know you said you downloaded the two ROM's from the HTC website. I don't know if you have a TMOUS HD2 then I suggest downloading the official upstream ROM from the T-Mobile website it is the 3.14 ROM.
I think what has happen to you is you had a bad flash and if you flash the 1.66 ROM first then you changed your SPL and now you don't have the correct split to flash the flash the 3.14 ROM. I recomemd you download and use HSPL 4 to change your SPL to SPL 3.03.0000 then try to flash the update ROM. Or you could flash it via your SD card that should force the changing of your SPL with out you doin yourself. JUst my thoughts on the situation.
[SOLVED] Just Flashed the correct official ship rom from HTC site using my HD2 Serial Number... It works like a charm. SPL has downgraded to 1.46
Thanks everyone who helping...
Just Flashing Stock Rom RUU_Leo_S_HTC_WWE_3.14.405.2_Radio_15.42.50.11U_2. 15.50.14_LEO_S_Ship.exe, I got stuck in bootloder.
- Error 294 Invalid Vender ID
- SPL 3.03.0000 can't HSPL-ed with HSPL3, SPL 3.03 is't listed as supported SPL
Flashed RUU_Leo_HTC_WWE_1.66.405.2_Radio_Signed_15.30.50.07U_2.06.51.07_Ship.exe, still stuck on bootloader.
- Error 294 Invalid Vender ID
- SPL 3.03.0000
- on boot loader screen said: Update fail code error, please try again
Try to get stock rom from HTC official site, but no rom suitable for S/N I entered.
Need help, is there any workaround for it?
Thanks
Edit 1: I Tried this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=606713 but also not working...
Edit 2: I visit again this site http://www.htc.com/sea/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=297&cat=2&dl_id=1063 and put my Serial Number and it has the Official Rom for my S/N (yesterday maybe i put the wrong letter or number), downloading now, let see how it works...
Same thing happening on mine too.. Not able to downgrade stock spl 3.14 to any other lower spl. i tried flashing various shipped roms with spl 1.66, 2.07, 2.10 etc.. no luck.. Does anyone know what to do for this problem???
same issue, been trying to get it back for days. i think my problem is the radio, i can'r get it to reflash now.

hi guys , u need download ur original room ( stock room ) and flash in normal way . after that ur spl is 1.66 or 1.42 depend ur network , after that u ready to upgrade with the rom u want .
Hello to everyone, the problem you mention isn't related to the stock ROM 3.14 but are related to the users who are flashing a non compatible aria ROM.
So my instructions to you are the follow use the stock rom that came from your aria; download the right stock rom from the HTC webpage by using YOUR S/N.
Moved thread to the right section.
yep tried that, flashed RUU_Leo_Vodafone_DE_1.72.162.0_Radio_CRC_Signed_15.32.50.07U_2.07.51.22_2_Ship.exe
i ran it from the sd card and everything said ok but still only loads to tricolour bootloader. i think it has something to do with the radio...won't update from RUU (been using LeoAdvancedRUU 1.03) or sd.
think i'm screwed...
Hi All,
I was facing this same issue for a long time with respect to the 3.03 ROMS.... Yesterday while searching for a solution, I found a website which hosts all types of Shipped ROMS ever published... Just select the ROM belonging to your region from there and Flash it... that will downgrade your SPL to the lower versions... (I personally flashed the 1.48 series ROM for INDIA which is available in that list and now am using WP7 ROM by DFT.... )
Hope this Helps !!!! CHEERS !!!
Please find the URL for India 1.48 series ROM below
P.S. You will find all roms on this website... just do a Ctrl+F for your country on the list of the ROM page.

Dont give up man... as long as your HD2 can enter the bootloader its still can be saved...
i am going to try goldcard but i think i have a hardware problem...i'm getting I2C error.
googled it and i'm pretty sure it is going back to the shop. anyway thanks to everyone for your help!
Hello i have htc hd2 i was upgraded to android, now I tried to downgrade to standart wm 6.5 and i get error on red green blue screen upgrade rom code error please try again. what i need to do now? i bought phone from O2-ireland. thanks
upgrade rom code error = you used the wrong stock rom.
either..
1 - find the correct stock rom (o2 ireland, for example)
or
2 - dont use sd card flashing, because when you did, it removed hspl, and so teh flash failed, because the stock rom was wrong.
so, example, say you want to flash the wwe 3.14 rom,, use hspl4 to set 3.03.hspl and then flash the 3.14 rom from usb.
or example 2, , say you want to flash a 1.66 rom, use hspl2 to set 1.66.hspl, then flash the rom from usb.
