Hi guys,
i am new to this Forum and you are my "last hope"... ;-)
I bought a used HTC Mozart at ebay. Everything is fine so far, it works, no damages or scratches updating to mango went smooth but trying to debrand it makes me mad...
It is a T-Mobile (Germany) branded device and one of several things that confuses me is the following:
Every time when i try to debrand it, i get the error 294 ( wrong vender id )... i searched the web, different Forums but i got no solution to fix this problem.
Even when i try to flash to T-Mob 1.09 Rom, i get the wrong vender id message
My phone datas are these:
Operating system: 7.10.7720.68
Firmwarerevision: 2250.21.4050.111
Hardwarerevision: NA
Radio software: 5.69.09.05a_22.50.21U
Radio hardware: 0.0.0.0
Bootloader: 4.5.2250.1 (12879)
Chip Soc version 2.2.5.0
What really confuses me is the fact, that the Hardwarerevision-No and Radiohardware-No are without a value.
Does this possibly mean that the prior owner tried to flash the device ??
Sorry for my bad english and probably my questions sound stupid to you but this is my first WM device and i still have to learn a lot.
I hope that someone is able to help me.
Thanks in advance

If the device has updated to Mango then your SPL (Secondardy Program Loader) will have been update too, most probably to 5.xx . Once you have a 4.xx or 5.xx you will not be able to downgrade ROM to 1.09 version.
Thanks for your response
i can downgrade my mango til 7004, that won`t be a problem. i just have to reset it..
But i don`t understand why there are no values at Hardwarerevision-no and radio Hardware... how can that be ??
hi,
i hope your problem is resolved by now. but here are my two cents:
if your phone is working, then there should be no issue. however, you may still want to downgrade the bootloader and deploy a custom ROM.
im sorry is any way to flash a rom becuase i have the same probleme??

Yes there is a way to flash it. Just search the forum on how to downgrade your SPL, it is a bit complicated if you are new to this stuff. But there are really good tutorials on how to do that here.
Just downgrade the SPL and you can install almost any ROM that you would like.

My T mobile branded Vario II fell off my lap yesterday (in its case) Theres not a scratch on it and its only 4months old. Later on i had loads of missed calls and then realised it wont ring or vibrate or play mp3's.
Im currently running one of HTC's Roms, SPL-1.09 is my bootloader and im not sure how to reflash with the original T-mobile rom before i head back to the shop to see about a replacement
I keep getting a invalid vendor id, and from reading posts on the forums i know i need to do something with the cid so i can flash back down to the original rom.But im getting confused between a super cid and a cid? as what ive found below just mentions cid and not super cid.
Is this the file i need? HTC_Hermes_SIM_CID_Unlock_v3a ? i just run the .bat file then install the orginal t mobile rom as normal?
What im basically asking is the above right to ahead with? as i just need some reassurance as if i cant blag one under warranty then ill have to use my insurance which as its my second claim in 6 months has a excess of £60
Yes i have looked on the forums for hours but cant see any info.
Thanks in advance should anyone help
EDIT well ive run the unlocker and supercid'd it but it still wont let me flash with the original t mobile rom?
ERROR:260 Update Error
im getting the above error?
Is all I will say is click on the mrvanx guide in my signature.

Hi Gavin01,
Good luck with the downgrade - I'd be interested to know how it goes. I also have a T-Mobile MDA Vario II, and so far I've put HardSPL 7 and Radio ROM 1.41 onto it. I'm just trying to decide which WM6 ROM I want to try out
Anyway, I have at the back of my mind that I don't really know how to downgrade it in the case of a warranty claim. The MrVanx guide to downgrading WM5 looks ok, but I'd love to know how to put the radio rom back (I guess this would just be the reverse of the upgrade), but then finally taking taking HardSPL off. In fact I'd vote for a guide on it - would write it myself but I have to confess I'm rather a newbie to the world of HTC upgrades....
Cheers,
sparky
I have the same problem
I´d like to downgrade to original softbank settings. But they only accept warranty issues if you have the original cid? , right?
So putting the old rom back on is not my problem, "un-super-cid" it is.
I need help please too
Hello,
please excuse, but i have a question and i will not open a new threat.
I use tytn. I have installed the Radio Version 1.40 and the Black 3.01 Rom. I have used HardSPL and when i go into the bootloader i have Herm200 IPL 1.04 and Herm200 SPL 2.10 OliPro. My question is: it is not possible to go back to wm5 with the installer RUU Hermes 1.18....-Qtek_Ger_Ship. Because in this installer is a Radio Rom. When i will use it, i lost my Radio and i have No GSM. The only way to go back is with MrVanx Hermes downgrade guide. Is this correctness ??
( This is what i think after using the help-function and the wiki )
When this is right, so Please Please, can a specialist please build a litte .exe-File so that i can make a downgrade to my mw5? Sorry, i am not idle, i am not able to to this. And please excuse my english. I will say say thank you very very much for your helping. With the best regards from Berlin say Christian
Hello!
I have a two question. Can we upgrade som firmware in Hermes 200? Mayby I saw somthing like that but I'm not understand everything of English Language.
Next question is. Can I change a IPL in my Herm? I have Hard SPL 2.60 Olimp but what whit IPL?
Thanx for Help and sorry for my errors.
yes you can upgrade the "firmware" of the Hermes. This means change the OS the Radio rom etc...
BUT... It is YOUR responsability. There is a significant risk to destroy your hermes if you do not understand what you do. You need to read first. Start here : http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=69&Itemid=26
Good luck
Thanx. I'm past the radio upgrade.
First off I want to apologize if what I am asking for exists but I have failed to find it.
It needs to be said that i've updated my HD2 with the latest complete update from HTC. I've been trying to get my hspl on by trying to install it but it says that because I have 3.03 it won't work. I need the radio for android since im quite sick of my buggy WM.
My question is: is there a way to install hspl even though you have 3.03? And could somebody point me in the right direction.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
No sir HSPL isn't compatible with SPL 3.03.
But way do you need it? I mean you mention fore change your radio version fore being compatible with Android. But firs of all Android is compatible with Radio 2.15.50.14 (the one who is integrated in stock ROM 3.14.
And secondly stock ROM 3.14 is compatible with Android sir.
Well it seems I was mistaken thanks for the help. Used a different build and the internet worked. But for some reason all my android builds get to the startup screen where I configure the first settings and such and survives through it by like 2 minutes then it gets cancer and dies. And by that I mean it hangs on random things and when I restart android it just goes to a black screen. Guess some people were just not meant to have android on their phones
Your stock ROM is fully compatible with Android. Do not touch anything. Just put on your SD card the Android files and run it. Like me. I've never flashed my HD2 with HSPL - I'm running only original ROMs and with the last one I am having smooth runnig Android OS too. Good luck!

I have the 3.14 ROM with 3.03.000 SPL installed on my HD2
What I`m trying to do is Install NAND Android. But to do this I need HSPL 2.08.
I read through a lot of Forums indicating that this can only be done if you flash an older ROM to phone, hence overwriting the 3.03 SPL.
Tried downloading one of the older stock roms (1.66 and 1.48) and then attemped to flash via SD and through the .exe file directly.
Heres what happened:
----------------------
From the .exe file it boots to the tri color screen and then reaches the progress bar screen. However it sticks there and the errors out with a code : 294.
At first I thought it could be an incorrect ROM but I doublechecked it.
Through the SD method after the phone detects the .nbh file it comes back with a "28002 : Not allow" error message.
Have tried this with various types of Mem cards but no luck.
I then tried SSPL with 1.66 and 1.48 as the ROM and i got it to flash the ROM with no problems but the HSPL still sticks at 3.03. And thats expected since SSPL is like a one shot go at flashing a ROM different from your region.
Question : Since this isnt working, will a task 29 help in this case? From what I understand it formats the filesystem that holds the OS. By doing so, will I then be able to flash one of the older Roms so I can install HSPL 2.08? Not sure if this will actually help.
Not sure what exactly i`m doing wrong here.

simple, you're using the wrong rom. It isnt just any stock rom, its a stock rom that is correct for your phone you need. so for example if its locked to orange france, you would need the orange FRA rom, if the phone came from o2 uk its the WWE O2 UK rom you need.
dont be confused by a phone that has been sim unlocked, it would still be rom locked.
Hi.
Just did this yesterday.
All you have to do is check the version installed.
Mine was 3.14.479.2 which is Eastern Europe.
So i downloaded the 1.66.479.2 and flashed.this flashed the 1.48 spl..
So problem solved.
forgot to mention the 3.14 it the rom version.the rest is region specific : in my case 479.2 means eastern europe.This is important.
Fox example i tried to flash WWE:1.66.405.2 (France Bouygues) but no luck. 0% and then error.
same problem - may be we need HSPL for SPL 3.03.0000
I experienced the same problem. may be we need HSPL for 3.03, or it is already available - i dont know....
Can anybody reply / answer / help us all who are having 3.03 and want to run NAND Android on their device ? ? ?
Thanks in anticipation.

Problem can easily be solved by installing the correct previous stock rom.
For example if you have now the 3.14.405.x stock rom you need to use previous version 1.66.405.x Red numbers need to be the same.
You can download the stock rom's on the HTC webpage, ore take a look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623283

So downgrading to HSPL 2.08 didn't work ?
Ahh, dont worry i have got it working now!!

All sorted and WP7 now running, though after all that i dont think i like it!!!

I've got the same problem after installing tmo-de 1.09 -> htc-europe 1.30 -> zune updates to 7720. I wanted to flash official ROM (which would be updateable by zune) with Polish language. Everything went fine, but I've got only DE, EN, ES, FR, IT languages.
Does anyone know if there's a possibility of adding a language pack (cab?) at this stage? I want Polish language so bad!
Unfortunately I cannot roll back to any sub-spl4 rom and thus cannot install hspl/rspl...

not sure about but if you flash a old nodo Rom , do the Bootloader also go back to an older version ?
im not sure too, but....

As in Title.... im not so sure but i think 1st step is to downgrade to NoDo. or Pre-nodo is better with stock rom, then have to see if your bootloader not change, you have to get 1 official update by zune.. then u should receive SPL 3.xx, then u can install RSPL, etc etc..

I was on SPL 5
Here is what i did
First i used 2GB Transcend to generate goldcard using my wife HTC Wildfire S, then i removed the SD card from the wildfire and inserted it in a card reader.
I opened the SD card and deleted any folder generated by wildfire.
Then i used my handmade Y cable as instructed but flashing process started after aboult 3-4 mins, so you have to wait for flashing process to start, it will not start after inserting immediately.
Bye

After which you use RUU to flash lower spl rom, right?
So far when i tried to flash after 1% the phone reboots, so i will give it a try. Generating gold card is easy with the Y cable, i dun know, but i m going to try this weekend, fingers crossed.

Hi my friend
After the new way that published to Interop Unlock, i returned back to SPL 5.11 and applied the 7740 update, but unfortunately i still unable to deploy apps.
I am now using Goldcard again.
While applying Goldcard method your device will restart once to confirm bootloader change and then it will complete normally.
