[Q] Flashing a ROM of a different Region on HTC - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My friend has a branded HTC Desire C (Telstera). I want to flash an Arabic ROM on it (RUU_GOLF_U_ICS_40A_HTC_ARA_1.49.415.4_Radio_10.11.98.09H_1.06.98.13M2).
How should I do that? Is it possible to do so by Goldcard?
I think the phone hboot is newer than the above rom hboot. Is it a problem?
Software Version: 2.00.841.4
Hboot: 1.31
P.S: PL01IMG_GOLF_U_ICS_40A_HTC_ARA_2.00.415.3_Radio_10.17.98.09H_1.19.98.02_release_343815_signed.zip has hboot version 1.31 but unfortunately I couldn't find a free download link for it.

>EXTREMELY SORRY IF SIMILAR THREAD EXISTS I SEARCHED ALOT N MAY HAVE FAILED TO FIND IT<
Check the post of the ROM you want. There must be a list of compatible Radios. Usually x.xx.50.xx radios work with all ROMS, but I suggest you check it in the ROM thread.

Titan vodafone EU

Hi Guys,
I have reviewed the forums looking for a solution to debrand and flash stock rom with 2.5 bootloader. Can anyone point me to the right direction?
I have tried DFT spl put get "invalid vendor ID.
From what I understand I can not use goldcard as my bootloader is 4.x
my phone is
HTC Titan (vodafone)
Carrier (unlocked)
OS version: 7.10.8773.98
Firmware revision number 1750.0602.40603.165
Hardware revision number:0002
Radio software version 17.5006.08.27_17.08.50.06U
Bootloader version: 4.6.175006.2(140733)
any help greatly appreciated. My HD2 @Dynamics HD2O 2.00 WP7.8 8858 is putting my titan to shame.
Your Titan is branded, even though it's carrier unlocked, it still carries a brand like ATT.
Firmware revision number 1750.0602.40603.165
That bit right there, the last 3 digits, usually shows the characteristic value of the phone on which network and region it is tied to.
Only phones with 401 (usually) are unlocked phones which do not carry and network branding in them.
Your luck is very slim, if you can find a matching Vodafone EU ROM with a bootloader version of at least below 2.05 / 2.5 (same thing) then there's a possibility of HSPL.
Success
Update.
It is possible.
I successfully downgraded SPL to 2.5. I created goldcard using nbh file in DFT SPL205 file then flashed HSPL.. Titan now running Dynamics 2.0.

How did you unlock? Could you give me some guidance?
the titan of a friend is in semi-brick and I would try to install a custom rom to restart it.. But I can not proceed with the downgrade bootloader

HTC Mozart language change doubts - pls help

Hi there, I've read tons of information and I'm still confused what to do... Please guys I'm desperate to fix that phone
I've htc mozart 7 in following configuration:
os ver: 7.10.8862.144
fw: 2250.21.51205.707
bootloader: 5.12.2550.5
The only language i can choose now is English (greyed out) which for me is fine but the thing is the phone is gonna be for my mum hence I need to have PL (polish) language in it. I'd like to flash it with stock European rom (I found out i need something with 401 in the rom file name) i guess currently i can not do that as my one is 707 (asia market). So what do I do? I want to permanently change the region for HTC europe (401) so it's not gonna change during connecting to zune or whatever.
Is my way of thinking correct? - To flash different region rom i need to have HSPL -> to do that I have to downgrade the bootloader as current one 5.12 does not allow for using HSLP tool which only supports booloaders from 1.xx -3xx -> to do that the only way to downgrade is GoldCard method. -> for goldcard downgrading i need to have asian rom (707) RUU_Mozart_hTC_Asia_WWE_1.28.707.03_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50_RELEASE.exe . After all of this and having HSPL, am I free to use an official newest HTC europe update ???? let's say this file: RUU_Mozart_S_HTC_Europe_5.13.401.01_5.71.09.02a_22.51.50_RELEASE.rar ???
Please if I'm wrong correct me can't wait to have it done ASAP. Thank you!
