You will need to downgrade the device to 1.x os.
See my comment here:

I will add this to the wiki shortly.
I managed to successfully use the r2sd command after unlocking.
Let me know if you need anymore information.
Thanks

cid unlcok for chipset 4?

I need to cid unlock my prophet(s200,jamin)
I tryed with the software in wiki-developers
but it makes problem does anybody help me by cid unlocking for chipshet for 0001

???????????????????????????????

A little bit difficult for us to understand the link you posted. Is possible to update in english? Thank you in advance!

yes please if this is a way to cid unlock a G4, can someone please translate?

not really a solution
I read the entire post. It is NOT a CID unlock, basically the guy just ran aWizard and ignored the error of CID unlock error. The screen says CID unlock success, but it doesnt really unlock CID. rest explains what roms he used to update his O2 xda. Mostly are in Simplified Chinese ROM. Nothing special or new in that post. Search is still on.

Kensu, thanks for your time!

If you want to install a new ROM then there is no need to unlock CID. This procedure explains a method for updating all components except IPL/SPL on a Wizard. The same procedure and the same tools in the document can be used on a Prophet.
Pay attention to the warnings on the first page though. The procedure is not trivial so make sure you know what you are doing before you actually do it!

Yep! Works well, as long as you try AKU2.x or better for the OS module. It didn't work with i-mate's old 1.2 ROM for JAMin but that just confirms what the article says. Everything else I've tried so far worked.

Prophet ( Qtek S200)
Hi inshar.
Have you tried with prophet with JAMin_ITA_2130921_21309111_020720_ship ROM ?
Do the settings remain the same as k-jam (ex. OS start address 80040000, HTC logo ?
Thank you

Hello all,
i'm new here and i dont understand something :
following this tutorial can i install on my o2 neo an italian 2.13 rom instead of the english 2.15 i am currently using?
in other words can i "down"date my rom from 2.15 to 2.13?
another question: wich is the best italian rom so far?
i've managed to find only a 2.13 around,are there any newest italian rom around?
thanks

Probably I made something wrong, my device is DEAD!!! I have been severals hours to fix it but no way.
Now I can see the device in boot loader mode (3 colors)
IPL 1.00
SPL 2.15.0001
How can I recover the installation?

You have missmatch in IPL and SPL version.
Your IPL is corresponding to DOC G3, but SPL DOC G4.
This should not be the case. What was your original DOC?
Do you have USB connection when in rainbow screen?
rgds,
fdp24

No, I don't have a USB connection. Tonight I was thinking and I going to try to put the ROM stop at bootloader. Let me try it now. As soon as I have some news I'll post it. Thanks!

I just finish to download the Dopod 818 Pro Rom stop at bootloader fix but now the problem is getting biger, I mean, the battery is empty, so I can not charge the device with the USB or AC cable. I have to find a battery to try with this Rom. Or go to the technical support and try to fix it.
The screen is on and of by it self efvery couple minutes (just for a while)

Finally I got a charged battery from my brothyer and I started to download the mentioned rom, but at 80% stop, I get an error message.
ERROR 326 Invalid Command. This NBF file cannot be used for your PDA Phoen. Please check your NBF.
How could I do? Suggestions???

I made a call phone to the service mantenience and I have a date to try to fix it. I'm affraid they are going to tell me something I don't like to heard, but...
Now I'm going to start a new life without my Prophet for a few days, or at least, hope so.

Vox Update SPL (USPL) 1.16

Hi guys,
I've just implemented a Vox USPL which allows you to flash any Vox ROM updates, i.e. you can flash any *official* ROM even if your phone's model and vendor ID doesn't match. It's confirmed that you can also flash cooked ROMs
This SPL is based on original Vox 1.16 SPL but includes 3 patches:
1) g_cKeyCardSecurityLevel = 0 (set 32)
2) Does not check Model & Vendor ID
3) Does not check signature*
(*) code must be formally signed i.e. contain properly-formatted signatures on the right places, however no checking is performed against them.
This means you can flash ANY ROM to your Vox after running USPL on it, no need to pay for CID unlock anymore!
The USPL will *not* help you to SIM unlock your device. You still have to pay for that.
The USPL runs in RAM and is *not* flashed to your device, so there is no risk there. Once it runs you can run any official Vox ROM update utility.
The USPL does *not* permanently CID unlock your phone, like the CID unlocker from imei-check or so.
After you flashed a ROM your phone is again CID locked. Each time you wonna flash a ROM with a different model and/or vendor ID (different from your phone) or a cooked ROM, you must run the USPL again and then flash the ROM.
It's beta and untested and the risk is entirely yours !! Don't blame me if you brick your phone
EDIT:
You can now also flash the USPL allowing you to flash any unsigned (cooked ROM or ROM module, e.g. radio or OS) or signed ROM with any model/vendor ID. The USPL substitutes your SPL until you perform a full ROM update. Consider it as an extra insurance in case something goes wrong with flashing cooked ROMs or any other ROM update !
Instructions:
1. Run the USPL (Vox USPL- CID BYPASS.zip)
2. Run the ROMUpdateUtility.exe (Vox-USPL-RUU.zip)
Have fun,
JockyW
The attachments:
SDA_ApplicationUnlock.zip : application unlocker if u need it
mtty1.42.zip : terminal emulator (not neccessary if u only do ROM updates, but if you wonna play with the bootloader commands you need it)
Vox-USPL-RUU.zip: flash version of USPL (Note: you must first run USPL from "Vox USPL- CID BYPASS.zip" before you can flash it with ROMUpdateUtility.exe from Vox-USPL-RUU.zip !!!)
Vox USPL- CID BYPASS.zip : instructions included
Credits: in particular to pof. This USPL and also the one for Excalibur is based on his USPL for the Elf. See here

I think this is one of the most fantastic news of the century!!!
Finally some cooking can start on this little device.
Thanks again,
Ka.

noob question
what the difference between sim unlock and cid unlock?

This can be found in various threads around here, anyway.
SIM Lock - You can't use a SIM from a different provider than the one who sold you the phone.
CID-Lock - You can't flash your phone with a ROM which hasn't been cooked by your provider (or manufacturer for HTC unbranded phones).

jockyw2001 great but make one for htc oxygen pls.

htc s710 - rom
confirm this is working very gd
thanks for all yoru help and support to this fourm

Same here

anyone online right now wanna drop me a line about this... what do I do exactly with the ruu file. Do I place rom image in that folder while runnning update???

so i followed the instructions and executed the cid bypass(installed itsutils and haret). once i get to the end it says use mtty or flash with RUU. so I attempt to flash right after (am I supposed to flash while the screen is black) but its gives me a connections error. I figure its because the phone is off. So I turn it on and update with the RUU again but only make it to 3% before I get a invalid vendor id. Would anyone care to comment on how I can flash this vox to the dopod rom...

To the users who had the same problem as me I am currently flashing my phone and I managed to get past my problem by using the SDA Application unlocker on my vox. I always thought that HTC were already application unlocked. Was going crazy for a while but I guess I should've followed the instructions step-by-step regardless of what I thought.
Big up to jockyw2001(and of course pof for without him alot of us would still be using shipped rom) for this wicked tool.
Cheers

I only got this phone so I could upgrade it for a friend to stop the boot loop. It seems to have fixed that problem so I guess it's better than the other roms. On the other hand I can't stand smartphone's so my suggestion is to ditch your SP and switch to PPC . Also I read before hand that this ROM doesn't include Windows Live Messenger but it is included in the rom. Just thought I'd let u guys know.

input please
Just ran into another problem and would appreciate some input. I understand that USPL only works for one flash...but I wasn't aware that a hard reset counted as a flash. Regardless my device hung at the dopod boot screen after a hard reset. Is this normal after using USPL on a device, and if so does this occur with all devices??? I would hate to give a phone back and have to tell the person that they can't perform a hard reset...

If you flash a full ROM the SPL is overwritten with the one in the ROM (Dopod = 1.19). Nothing to do with USPL. Booting can take a long time after hard reset. Unplug battery and try again.

Thanks, I got it to work eventually...Good to know USPL doesn't effect hard resets, I guess you learn something new everyday.
If I had to take a guess before hand I'd figure a SP would boot faster than a PPC, but I realize now that I'd be wrong...
thanks to all for the help, I can finally return this Vox back to its owner
cheers

Hi
I flashed my E650 in French with the swissrom (present on FTP), all works !
an idea to change the logo operator to HTC original ?
thanks

thought I fixed the problem. seems as if after a day it just hangs at the dopod screen. It was working fine everytime I had it. As soon as I give it back it seems to hang. Guess ima just flash it back to the HTC rom, too much hassle for just $20.

why SDA_ApplicationUnlock.zip can't unlock my Orange SPV E650?

Vox Italian official ROM needed - Vox Bricked.

Hi All,
I need an Italian Official VOX ROM or instruction how-to flash unsigned ROM.
Please note that I have flashed a wrong ROM and Activesync does not work, I can access only though bootloader.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks

Here is something you could try : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_SDCardFlashing
Try naming the VOXIMG.nbh instead of HERMIMG.nbh.
but I really don't know if this can work. most likely not in fact since I haven't seen it described for the vox on these forums..
Sorry I have really no experience in bricked devices. Well I bricked mine several times but usb connection still worked through bootloader, so I could start ruu updater when in bootloader mode and it worked fine.

I have bricked my Vox making custom roms, but have found that even though i can get into the bootloader and run up the RUU updater, every time i go to flash a rom i get errors saying wrong VendorID etc... this is because the rom i flashed had different ID's to the original HTC ROMS. Maybe you are signing them different to me?
Please help!

Hi Doctor,
it does not work with VOX.

i`ve made the same mistake (flashed a ROM cooked by me) ... but prior to flash my phone i was lucky enough to use USPL 1.16 to permanently flash my SPL to 1.16 (i`ve used both archives Vox USPL-CID BYPASS.zip and Vox-USPL-RUU.zip) instead of 1.27 (original, vendor locked).
On the XDA ftp is a italian ROM if i`m not mistaking, did you try it ?
try this ... i`m not sure it will work.
Make sure you have disabled the USB connection in ActiveSync:
File --> Connection settings --> uncheck "allow USB connections"
1. get into booloader mode
2. connect with mtty
3. write password BsaD5SeoA
4. try to run the USPL 1.16 now ... (i`m just guessing)
if it doens`t work reset the phone and repeat step 1. and 2. and continue with:
3. write password BsaD5SeoA after that ruurun 0
4. try to run the USPL 1.16 now ... (i`m just guessing)
alternatively instead of USPL you can try to run the italian rom from the ftp.
i`ve managed to save my phone doing steps 1, 2, and 3 (not sure which one worked) from above and then flashed with ARA ROM ... but keep in mind my SPL was 1.16.
hope this helps

I'm italian could I help you...
Hi i'm italian and i'm totally nwe on those things...eheheh i haven't yet underrstand what those cooked roms are..but I have an italian s710 with the original rom...with some software on it..If i could help.... let me know..maybe send me a PM or a mail through the forum mail system..
ciao ciao fammi sapere
bye bye just let'me know

with TheBo`s help the problem is almost solved :d

My intention was just to ask if a backup of my original HTC VOX (unbranded) could help...sorry...next time I will not do the same mistake.

SPL
Hi,
unfortunately this does not help because my VOX is CID locked “g_cKeyCardSecurityLevel = FF” and Activesync does not work, for this reason I’m not able to flash any unsigned rom.
My SPL is 1.27.
I have tried to flash 1.16 but the procedure does not work.
It is a way to CID unlock my VOX from bootloader?
Can anyone cook a signed Italian ROM?
Thanks.

maybe TheBo`s ROM will work for you

Nop,
it does not help until my VOX is unlocked...

my Y! ID is maxtry80, TheBo and alllof contact me there, maybe i can help you

If you would to help us you can try to cook a signed rom from the dump in ftp://xda:[email protected]/Vox/ (file name: s710 rom 1.15.408.2 (italian + uk eng + us eng).rar) or give to us instructions how to do it.
Thanks for your help.
Regards.

i`ll try to help you ... i`ll be back in couple of hours with results

Thanks for your help!

check you pm!

did it work?

i tried the method posted a while back with no positive results .... yet
I was just wondering, i looked at the bootloader and it says Vox SPL 1.15 so this is the version i am using and it doesnt let me flash another vendor id rom...

VOX Briched.
Nop,
it does not work. I have sent my device to HTC...

Can you tell me how it works out?? I am hesitant to send mine to HTC (i had to import this phone) which will mean i have to pay heaps for shipping... and even then i dont expect them to replace it because the last rom i flashed had a different splash screen (silly me ) this will be obvious to them and therefore wont replace mine because i tampered with the rom.

After WM 6.1 official ROM Upgrade ... system problems..

Hi,
I downloaded Official WM 6.1 Upgrade from HTC http://member.htc.com/downloadfiles....0_radio_sign_25.83.40.02_1.65.16.25_Ship.zip
and after running that... My system is dead slow and also unable to install few program like Schap's Advance Configurator etc and other issues like
System Reboot time increases....
GPS taking too much time for a Fix
Menu Pop down slowly...
Stucks quite often
.... And after every hour or so the Message popup like that " Please Inform Microsoft about this issue ...... "
Since i am not a computer Geek... Please advice some simple solution ...
Though i also download the official RUU from HTC which released on 21-2-08 but when i run that it tells me that " THIS UPDATE IS NOT FOR YOUR DEVICE " after the SPL screen...
So, is there anyway that i revert back to original System dated 28-8-07
Ur help in this would be highly appreciated....
And PLEASE accept my appologies is this issue has already been raised here...

not sure what you mean by dead slow. First off, the warning that you get that the rom isn't for your device tells me you are not CID unlock. You can always CID unlock your phone and then put it back to the original SPL if you want to keep things back to normal.

Thanks for the reply.....

Well it takes time to respond to the command... e.g. if i click on the START then it took quite a time for a menu to pop down....... as far as CID unlock... i am not sure....
But i purchased my tytn II from UK as a sim free unit @ 455 pounds... and before that WM 6.1 upgrade, i never played with the ROM or firmware... no SPL nothing anysort run on my unit.... I just run the RUU directly from PC and follow the on screen instructions....
