Hi everyone
I am a fresh owner of a C600 and I want to back-up the original ROM (reasons are rather obvious). So:
1 - De-certificated (with RegeditSTG) and unlocked (SPV-Services) the phone
2 - Inserted a blank 32Mo SD-Card in slot
3 - Powered the phone to bootloader (IPL 1.00, SPL 1.00.0009)
4 - Turned off ActiveSync
5 - inserted the USB Cable (on phone appears USB on bottom)
6 - Started Tera Term
7 - sent r2sd all to phone
but in Tera Term window appears:
***** user area size = 0x1D30000 Bytes
R2SDBackup() - Download type = 6
usTotalBlock = 1 sizeof(SDCARD_SIGNATRUE_TABLE)=512
You didn't get the proper security level to download a specific image
I tried to set CID to 11111111 with SPV Services but it says:
'Illegal writezone patch attempt - invalid data'
Can you help me? Is there any other way to make a backup of the original ROM? Thanks in advance.
Any luck in re-flashing your device?
I think your stuck with editing the registry like many of us who flashed to the latest Orange AKU2.0 ROM
If there is a solution please let me know
WM6 for Tornado
ALPHA RELEASE!
The link is now BROKEN as I have had to take down the ALPHA version to make way for the test BETA that I've made available to a few people for preliminary testing.
Note: This is in no way a finished product, some stuff still might not work, but as far as Tornado ROM's go in terms of speed and reliability, it runs like sh!t off a shovel
But we take no responsibility for any catastrophies that might occur eg. you brick your phone, your dog dies, your girlfriend gets pregnant etc. etc.
This ROM was developed entirely in our free time between college and university, there's no need to pay us for that, but a donation would be nice. If you wish to do so, then please click HERE
To Do:
MMS
HTC Camera App
Remove remaining HTC debug apps
Changed:
Fixed WiFi problems
Fixed Audio problems
Fixed GPRS issues (IPL 2.00, SPL 2.00.0008 and Radio 4.1.13.28_02.61.01 included in the NBF to sort this out)
Custom splash screen
Voice Command in ROM
xT9 cab (must install BEFORE the lanugage pack)
xT9 Language pack with 14 different languages
HTC Task Manager cab
HTC Comm Manager cab (unfortunately, bluetooth settings don't work yet)
HTC Clear storage cab
SP5 and SP5m button fixes as cabs
I will embed these cabs at a later date, however atm, I don't have time so I've just dumped the i-mate SP5 ROM and cab'd up a few apps you all wanted.

Flashing instructions are as follows:
NOTE: This will work on vista providing you have followed the Vista RUU guide HERE or HERE
For those getting the "Not Allow Operation" error in TeraTermPro, or, even worse, getting stuck in bootloader after flashing. You MUST superCID your device using the SPV-Sevices client! This step is NOT optional and could result in your phone becoming a brick if anything goes wrong
1. Make sure you device is SuperCID, you can check using the SPV Services client, if on reading the CID it displays 3131313131313131 in a long string of numbers then it IS CID unlocked, if not, the click the CID = 11111111 button and reset your device
2. Download the ROM linked in the first post
3. Download the attached TeraTermPro.zip
4. Disable USB connections in ActiveSync (right click the icon in the systray, then select connection settings and untick the USB connections box), turn off your device, hold camera ad plug the device into the USB port to enter bootloader mode.
5. Extract TeraTermPro.zip and run ttermpro.exe, then select Serial and then USB in the drop down box. Then type:
Code:
info 2
You will then probably get the following output:
Code:
info 2
GetDeviceInfo=0x00000002
+ SD Controller init
- SD Controller init
+StorageInit
CMD55 failed
+ SD Controller init
- SD Controller init
+StorageInit
CMD55 failed
HTCSSuperCID ' HTCE
Cmd>
If you don't see HTCSSuperCID ' HTCE above the Cmd> prompt then your device isn't SuperCID. You must use the SPV Services Client to make your device SuperCID as instructed in step 1
6. Type
Code:
format BINFS
This will then output:
Code:
Cmd>format BINFS
Format BinFS partition.
Format is completed!!
Cmd>
7. Now type:
Code:
ResetDevice
You device will then reboot, display the splash screen for around 2 seconds before running into the bootloader again. This is normal.
8. Extract WM6TornadoALPHA.zip then run ROMUpdateUtility.exe in the RUU folder.
9. Wait while it flashes your device
10. Install the extras you want in the 'extra stuff' folder, I recommend you install comm manager, task manager and xT9 as these solve most of the WiFi and T9 icon issues people are expericencing
11. Done

Unlock your phone first, then use SPV-Services to change the cid.
See SDA Application Unlock and SPV-Services in the attachments.
was just testing out to see if i can connect via teratermpro.
and it seems i cant. ? :s
Shot at 2007-07-16
Shot at 2007-07-16
fixed the issue seems that tertermpro tools doesnt seem to connect or work for me.
so i used mytt 142.exe application
Turn off the phone and disconnect USB
Press Camera button and holding it insert USB connector (or holding Camera button press Power button for 1-2 seconds).
When "Need an UI (0)?" appears on the screen press [0] immediately. You will see tricolor screen, in the blue zone there will be "Typhoon IU" message, if you see "Typhoon XIP" you were late to press [0], start from beginning.
Run mtty1.42.exe from archive, choose [USB], press Enter and you will see a prompt.
Will this method work if I don't want to SuperCID as my warranty is not over yet?
"Here is how I got the rom to install without the devauth error.
1) use a hex editor on the rom file and search for the devauth.exe string e.g. 44 00 65 00 76 00 41 00
2) between the "devauth" and the "exe" you will see the hex "00 2e".
3) swap these bytes around so they are "2e 00" instead of "00 2e".
4) This will keep te same checksum but will not allow the devauth.exe to run. well it work in my case at least"
Hope it works

The Rom Will Be Posted In The First Page When It Is Ready, Now They Are Just Packing The Rom, So Please Be Patient
i heard that super cid doesn't work with internet explorer 7, is that true?I set cid=111111111 and when i enter in spv_services again it shows me the old cid
Dear all,
I have an old windows mobile 5 Qtek 9000 and now I decide to upgrade with one of the latest WM 6.1 rom. The point is that I have no usb cable with me. Which is the easiest way to flash a new rom on my Qtek 9000? Can you link me a simple guide?
Thanks.
Luke
flasher...
As far as I am aware flashing from the SD isn't an option. The cable from any device with the same shape interface e.g. PSP, digital camera, etc. should work.
It is an easy process as long as you stick to the basics like glue:
- identify the type of handheld you have (G3/G4, 64MB/128MB) and select compatible ROMs + have the OEM ROM available in case a reflash is needed.
- remove the SD
- sync with PC or backup personal information.
- clear the handheld memory (hold down the two menu keys while pressing reset, then 0)
- enter bootloader mode (backlight+power+reset) then connect. PDA screen should change from serial to USB.
- disable PC firewall
- be patient.
I won't follow this thread anymore since i have sold my Boston. Anyway you can find more informations on htcmania.com (use google translate if you don't speak spanish)
EDIT: Upgrade to CMLMod 1.5 based on Muchtel ROM (below outdated CML 1.4)
With this tutorial you sould be able to unlock your Orange Boston (aka GigaByte G1305 Codfish, Apanda A60, WellcoM A88, Vibo A688, Cincinnati Bell Blaze f800, Commtiva Z71, Muchtel A1, Chinavision Excalibur, Motorola Greco, Nexian A890) and install CMLMod 1.5.1 (or 1.4) (by c.martinez.lozano) based on the ROM Muchtel 2.1 (eclair)
Main advantages/disadvantages of CMLMod 1.5.1:
+Unlocked device (can use any SIM)
+Android 2.1 (Eclair)
+Root access with Superuser permissions
+Preinstalled programms and other features
+Easy SD partitioning and more features thanks to the new recovery
+Optional App2SD
+Processor speed adjustable in a range between 122 and 600MHz (with the possibility to set variable processor speed to have performance and longer battery life at the same time)
+Other features: 3 different launchers, flash light, setcpu, app2SD in one click, other preinstalled apps and tweaks
=Camera autofocus not working (like on stock ROM)
=Different UserInterface (in my opinion better, but that's subjective)
-You may loose the warranty on your device
-IMEI may change, to restore your original IMEI use the tutorial in my second post
-Languages not fully implemented (english is working fully, other languages settable with LocaleSwitch but not fully integrated )
Important!!! There may be the risk of damaging your phone in an irreparable way! Be aware also by installing this ROM you will loose your warranty! I do not take any responsability for the status of your device!
I translated the tutorials on htcmania.com

Requirements
Hardware requirements:
-Phone model: Orange Boston (aka GigaByte G1305 Codfish, Apanda A60, WellcoM A88, Vibo A688, Cincinnati Bell Blaze f800, Commtiva Z71, Muchtel A1, Chinavision Excalibur, Motorola Greco, Nexian A890)
Edit: never seen a phone with so many different names!!!
-PC operating system: Windows XP 32 bit with SP3 and .NET Framework 2.0 and Winrar installed. Do not try with Windows XP working on a virtual machine!!!. Seems to work also on other Windows 32 bit operating. Does NOT work with Windows7 64 bit
-USB to micro USB cable (comes with the phone)
Software requirements For CMLMod 1.5.1:
Firmware Apanda A60 1.6.2
Firmware CMLMod 1.5.1 (this file already contains RUT 1.2.2 and the Phone drivers)
Additional for CMLMod 1.4 (Outdated):
RUT 1.2.2
Phone drivers
Firmware Apanda A60 2.1.9
Firmware CMLMod 1.4
Tools like adb, fastboot, etc
Ready to start! make sure you have enough battery left (at least 30%)
PART 1: Installing Apanda 1.6.2
Unpack the file Phone drivers on your desktop, or another place, but remember where
install RUT_V1_2_2. At the end you will have to reboot your pc. Reboot it
[*]Unpack the firmware 1.6.2 from the archive Hipi1_6_2.rar and you get a file ending with .nb0
[*]Execute RUT (the shortcut should be on your desktop). The program reminds us to prepare the USB cable and to have all the drivers installed. (For Vista or Seven 32 bit: right click on the RUT shortcut. on the menu select Properties-->Compatibility check Run this program in compatibility mode for: and select Windows XP (Service Pack 3) then press OK, then right click on the Rut shortcut and select Run as administrator)
[*]In the next window, look for the firmware just to unpacked (the .nb0 file) and select it.
[*]The instructions tell you what to do: disconnect the phone from your pc (if connected), remove and reinsert the battery to your phone
[*]Hold the camera button and the volume up button pressed and then press the power button to enter recovery menu.
[*]Once the recovery menu, connect your phone to your computer. If we never connected in recovery, it requires new drivers. They are in the inside the Folder we unpacked in step 1 inside the subfolder AndroidX32 for 32 bit operating systems (if it later asks for drivers again, select the same folder again).
[*]The installer will detect your phone. If not, enter the Device Manager and check that all devices are correctly installed.
[*]From now on, follow the on-screen instructions and wait, it takes a while.
[*]Once complete, we have the new firmware installed. Our phone will restart and (after a while) show us something in chinese. Touch the right on-screen button to select the english language.
[*]When your phone is on check your IMEI by dialing *#06# and then press the call button and write it down. Now check the IMEI written on the phone under the battery. If the IMEI is the same, go on with PART 2. if the IMEI changes, use the tutorial in my second post to restore the original IMEI.
Now your phone is unlocked but you have the chinese version of Android 1.6
PART 2: Installing CMLMod 1.5.1 (for CMLMod 1.4 skip this and go to PART 2 OLD)
Unpack the file CMLMod1.5.rar
Run the programm RUT once again, and select the newCMLMod1.5.nb0 file you got
Repeat the same steps described in PART 1: 6.-10.
Now on your phone open the main menu and then CMLMod1.5 to configure App2SD select Configurar Apps2sd, then partitionar SD the phone will restart into recovery mode.
Now select Partition sdcard, Partition SD and confirm with the Home key. set swap=0, Ext2=512 (is more then enough! you can also set less) and Confirm twice again.
Then press the back button and select APP2SD if you want your apps being installed on your sd in the Ext2 partition.
Attention!!! if after you want your apps being installed on your phone memory you have to make a Wipe, that means, your data will be lost.
Always in CMLMod1.5 you can select a launcher, install flash lite and install setcpu to set the speed of the phone's processor with the possibility of variable speed.
FINISH!!!
PART 2 OLD: Installing Apanda 2.1.9
Unpack the file Hipi_2_1_9GMS.rar and you get the file Hipi2_1_9_GMS版.nb0. Rename this file in Hipi2_1_9_GMS.nb0 (the chinese symbol can make problems)
Run the programm RUT once again, and select the new Hipi2_1_9_GMS.nb0 file you got
Repeat the same steps described in PART 1: 6.-10.
Now you have the chinese version of Android 2.1
PART 3 OLD: Installing CMLMod 1.4
Unzip the archive CMLMod1.4zip copy the 3 files inside and paste them into the folder A688
Remove and reinsert the battery of your phone
Press and hold the volume down and the end call buttons and then press the power button
Now your phone starts in fastboot mode. Connect it to your PC
Press on your keyboard Windows+R in the pop up window type "cmd" and press Enter
In the dos window type "cd.." (off course without ") and press Enter, until you are in C:\
Now type "cd A688" Enter, then "fastboot getvar version" Enter. If the answer is "0:5" procede, otherwise control if your drivers are correctly installed
Type "fasboot -w" Enter
Type "fastboot flash system system.img" Enter (wait 2-3 min. until it finishes)
Type "fastboot reboot"
Tutorial: Restore your original IMEI
Wrong IMEI seems to lead to a lot of different strange problems while using the phone. So if your IMEI changed after flashing an other ROM it might be better to restore the original one.
All Credits to c.martinez.lozano
Attention!!! this process is delicated!!! I have no responsability for any damages to your phone!
Dowload this File: and Unpack it to "C:\IMEI"
Go into C:\IMEI and execute setup. This will install PSAS
Execute MadEdit (answer NO), in MadEdit click File-->Open and choose NVList.nvr and we see a lot of numbers
Scroll down until on the left grey side you see "000020C0" and on the same line in the white part you see the numbers ".. .. .. .. 1A 23 45 67 89 AB CD EF...." this is the BAD IMEI
Now open notepad (on your pc) and write down your correct IMEI (found under your battery) putting in front "A" and separing every 2 characters (E.g. if your IMEI is "324867523906130" write "A3 24 86 75 23 90 61 30") and now invert every coupe of letters (in this case you would have "3A 42 68 57 32 09 16 03") *NOTE: thanks to jhonburton for better example
In MadEdit instead of the BAD IMEI "1A 23 45 67 89 AB CD EF" write (replace it) the number you got (in this case "3A 42 68 57 32 09 16 03")
Save the file and close MadEdit
Disconnect from your PC and turn off your phone and restart it into Recovery mode (Camera+Vol. up+Power). Reconnect it to your PC and if necessary install the drivers
Run PSAS (you installed it before) and choose Hardware Forensics-->Use Mobile Ports
Right to Serial Com Port select COM? - Smartphone 2009 Wireless USB Moden. The ? stands for a number. So very important!!! remember for Example if ?=3, remember COM3
Go to the tab Codes (QC) and click on Send SPC
Go to the tab Dialog Port (QC) and on the second drop down menu left to the button Lets go select Restore NVItems (Binary) and then press Lets go
Select the NVList.nrv (we have changed before) and click Open
IMPORTANT Once the process is complete, closed PSAS
Download and install QPST
Launch QPST Configuration
Click on the tab Ports and select Add New Port... and there you write the COM? port you had to remember before (in my example write "COM3") and click OK
In the tab Active Phones now you should see your phone. If not something went wrong.
Click on Start Clients-->SERVICE PROGRAMMING
A window with our phone will pop up. We select OK
Select Load from file and choose the 00000000_sp.qcn inside the folder c:\IMEI and click Open
Click Write to Phone and wait until your phone restarts, with your new IMEI.
Check your IMEI again by dialing *#06# now it should be correct
If your IMEI is still wrong, check accurately if you did everything right (correct number in NRV file etc etc...) if nothing helps procede with following steps:
Turn on the phone in download mode ( Hang up + Vol. Up + Power) and flash Apanda 1.6.2 again
Repeat all the steps of the Tutorial to restore your IMEI
If this didn't help install Apanda 1.6.1 always with the phone in download mode
Repeat all the steps of the Tutorial to restore your IMEI
If you still have problems, try to find another PC with WindowsXP SP3 32bit where you can try again.
Sooner or later you will be able to get you IMEI right (i think so)
thanx a ton suriya I've unlocked my blaze f800
You forget to explain how to use app2sd on CMLMod1.4
Thank's about your translate!!.
Sorry about my bad english
thanks alot. really good tutorial!
i didnt encounter any problems at all, not even those specified by you in the tutorial. as for the underclocked cpu, i see that as an advantage: this android version is faster with lower cpu frequency then the original one (at least for me), and thus, less battery is consumed.
if u dont care about ur phone's warranty (i dont), i really recommend this upgrade.
so far seems stable, but the bug when u place a call and u don't here ringing, persists.
Thanks alot, again!
Is it possible to flash the phone with this room using ROM Manager?
And if following your method do we have to do PART1 of the tutorial? i allready have my phone unlocked and have Android 1.6 for example.
thanks!
I have problem with Imei. After flash it is chaged. And i use this tutorial for restore imei but it didn´t work and my imei is still different thet under battery. And i have problem whit wifi. Maybe bad IMEI is reason for don´t working Wifi

Explain me better. Do you mean, when you call someone you don't hear this "tuuut-tuuut"? cause if it's that i don't have this bug
by the way if you didn't read it look here, about battery optimization.

Try once again step by step. start with PART 1 again. be careful you don't forget anything. Use this version of QPST and a new .nrv file this time. if this does not help we will find a solution together looking step by step (in case c.martinez.lozano is an expert).
By the way wich kind of phone do you have, and from wich country? And wich operating system has your computer?

Now right click on the RUT shortcut again and select Run as administrator.
Try that way. then try that imei stuff again!

P.S. Anyway if you know where you can use an XP (32 bit) with SP3 i am confident everything will work if you do it step by step
ok IMEI is correct now. But i have a problem with wifi. On any 2.1 rom cant find any network but when i flash 1.6.2 it find. So i dont know where is a problem.

dont remember exactly, but in some parts of the tutorial, you have to "Run as administrator" the given applications (RUT, etc). i used win7 32bit, and no problem.

No. But with LocaleSwitch you can select italian then most things are in italian. Settings (impostazioni) is still in English, and no italian dictionary on the stock keyboard. you can install another keyboard, to solve this. But wait for CML 1.5. Maybe some better.

oki..thx for info. but, what does exactly that locale switch app? what are the changes?
Please add Nexian A890 (Indonesian version of this device) on the list too. Here, in Indonesia, we can bring it to the official service center to upgrade it.

thanks mate. added
It worked on my Cincinnati bell Blaze,but I can't get the IMEI to change. all works but
the Internet connection, WIFI does work.
Thanks for the 2.1 Upgrade
My phone is only three color mode, if i switch on. I try different rom upgrade but nothing. What i can do?
A little more information is needed:
What does the 3 color screen tell?
What happens if you execute a ROM update?
How do you try to make the ROM update, shipped ROM (which) or a cooked ROM (which)?
Has the device ever worked?
Which ROM was on the device before it got stuck in bootloader (3 color screen)?
Tri-color screen meant by bootloaderit (red, green, blue). When I try to update the ROM, it shows that it would be done, but the re-launch the bootloader all the time. Try a different ROM, which is designed for the HTC Qtek 8310 and the Tornado. WM6, WM61 and WM65. WM5 device worked before, more detailed version i dont know. letter on the screen IPL: 2.00 SPL: 2.00.0009
It seems that the loaded ROM does not succeed to load. If you load a shipped ROM everything outlined below should be done automatically for you, so if that does not work as well, then the device may be broken. So check first if you can load a shipped ROM again.
For cooked ROMs you need to prepare the BINFS to match the size of a ROM before you load it. As you succeed in loading any ROM, the device seems to be CID unlocked already. Check the following:
Connect the device in bootloader mode. Switch off, then keep camera button pressed and insert USB cable.
Disable USB for Active Sync (Connection settings of AS).
startup a terminal program that can connect via USB (e.g. TTerm pro)
connect ot the USB port
press enter
Command prompt appears
enter "info 2" (no quotes) enter
read the last line, it should give something like "HTC SuperCID". If not, then you must CID unlock the device first. Lookup the relevant threads for the cooked ROMs or search for Lokiwiz.
If the device is already SuperCID, then you must match the BINFS formatted size to be larger or equal the ROM size (OS partition). For most cooked ROMs it is the binary file size. Relevant actions are also described in some cooked ROM threads, e.g. mine - see my signature.
What is shipped ROM? Original Rom? I do not have it.

CID unlocking mobile... DO NOT DISCONNECT UNTIL THE PHONE REBOOTS!
What i try next?
IF your OS is not up, then the lokiwiz will not do anything to your device!
With THIS status you should not succeed in doing any update or format your BINFS. You first need to get the original OS up and running again before you van get any further on changing your OS. The steps to take are:
Get old OS running up again
Application unlock the old OS
CID unlock the device (backup your *.bin files!)
load new OS
1.) is your problem currently. There are several ways to achieve this, try a hard-reset first, this should work for your device:
switch off device
press L+R softkey and hold both
switch on device and keep L+R softkey pressed
wait until prompt and act accordingly
device will reboot to OS
OK now?
I do not have the original OS or even the old OS. After a hard reset as well as the OS does not come up.
# Switch off the Device
# Softkey Press L + R and hold Both
# Switch the device and keep L + R softkey presses
Press 0 to restore factory default. Other key to exit
I press 0
After hard reset load the bootloader again.
OK, then you need to load the CID matching old OS via the shipped ROM standard procedure. Look to: http://www.shipped-roms.com/shipped/Tornado/ and get 8310_2090_253121_020900_to_dan_eur_ship.exe
Execute it on the PC while the device is connected in bootloader mode. If that does not work, then try other ROMs in the same directory until you succeed with the loading.
Mind that a first boot takes 3-5 minutes, so be patient if the bootloader is not coming up any longer. Also do not interrupt the ROM loading in the first steps when the upload has started. It is normal that there are phases where the progress bar does not move. I think the sequence is per partition (IPL, SPL, Splash, OS): load to RAM (bar progressing), load from RAM to ROM = flashing (no bar progress, but color change of bar at the end). The large OS partition is loaded at the end of the sequence so the second step will take some time - be patient.
Good luck!
I try all ROM's but always give me ERROR 294 INVALID VENDOR ID.
And now the phone does not start anymore. No picture. I dont know what happend
This seems to prove that the device has something broken.
Make sure that the battery gets charged while the device is off. Despite the device was connected to USB all the time there is no charging happening in bootloader mode. Wait until the green light is there again before you continue - power drain in bootloader mode is quite heavy.
When none of the shipped ROMs work for upload, it really gets hard to load back an OS running on that for further steps :-(
There is a procedure called "Gold Card method", the rough procedure is (only did that once years back - so this is no step-by-step guide):
Prepare the card so that the bootsector contains the magic device specific "Gold Card" signature. For that you need a trial version of PSAS, and a working windows mobile device(!).
then you would have to load the *.nbh file that gets uploaded to the device (and fails) to that mini-SD card root directory,
rename it to TORNIMG.NBH there
load the card to the device,
then reboot to bootloader (Camera + on)
and hope it gets it loaded
A detailed procedure is described for the Excalibur device but this works equally well for Tornado if you adjust the relevant parts (PSAS is the success of QMAT). Mind that the miniSD card should be in really good condition (fresh full format, check that the file loaded can be read byte-identical from it). If the loading from the card fails or corrupts the IPL/SPL while loading then your device is really bricked. It happened to me with an Excalibur (read the whole thread linked above) - so be extra careful (though - what do have to loose?)!
