Hi
I have a Tornado in o2 IQ guise, it is not CID unlocked. When I turn it on I get the o2 splash screen before it goes into bootloader. I tried hard rest but that didn't work so I tried flashing differnt rom, which is how I found that it was still CID locked.
I have tried the solution at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=388109 to change .nbf header to match that of my phone but this doesn't seem to work Typhoonnbftools just spits out a 1kb .nbf file.
Bootloader reports:
IPL:2.00
SPL: 2.00.0011
Tornado 1U
USB is available and can communicate with the phone using TerraTermm Pro I have tried format BINFS but I'm told "not allowed operation". I really need an o2 UK rom to flash back but it isn't on their site. I looked on the xda-dev ftp but the rom on there is german and has different vendor ID.
Can anyone help?
Thanks

Please help me with the following issue:
I bought recently a SPV C600 from ORANGE RO, with the following versions:
IPL 1.00
SPL 1.00.0009
on the green band says Tornado IU
ROM 1.0.9.0
Operator 11.1.10.3
RTL 2.002
So, I wanted to flash with the Imate SP5 software (I-mate_SP5_NRE_1.5.333.0).
I decertified and SIM unlocked the phone (SPV-Services), I erased operator
field from header (with TyphoonNBFTools) but when I tried to update firmware,
the phone entered in bootloader mode, (with RUU at top-right of the screen)
and I received the mesagge "Error 2??: Update Only.")
I used the NBFViewer from the update and saw that the ROM version of imate
firmware is 1.0.8.0, so it's kinda downgrade and I understand that newer bootloaders don't accept that. So, what's your advice?
I tried to set CID -> SuperCID (11111111) with SPV-Services, but again I'm not
allowed to do that (Illegal writezone patch attempt - invalid data) or smth like that.
What are my options? wait for an update that superseeds the present? should i try to emergency flash the bootloader with a lower version? it is ok to do that with a bootloader from imate or ONLY with one from ORANGE firmware? Is there any posibility to SuperCID the CID (wich seems the most convenient sollution, but I couldn't figure out how to do it reading the post from Low-Level Discution topic)?
Finally, the firmware for sp5m is ok for C600, or should I stick with sp5 roms?
Sorry if my english is bad.. but i'm new in this stuff, and any suggestion is welcome.
Thanks,
After flashing to a new ROM - WM6 the phone didn't boot the WM6 installation. Instead the old Orange logo appeared and entered in bootloader mode. I tried restoring the ROM from the original WM5 ROM (Orange RO) but it said Not Allowed. Ok... I flashed then a Cingular WM5 ROM and it worked. The initial logo changed and the OS booted. Immidiatly after the Windows Mobile splash I got a message "Data Crashes. Contact service center". If I remove the SIM card the message dissapears. I think something got screwed during the first flash since it didn't go through. I mention that I used the same ROM to flash another C600 phone and it works perfectly.
So... now I can boot up Cingular WM5 and play around with applications, but as soon as I insert my SIM card the Data Crashes message appears. It is my guess that some vital information such as the IMEI got screwed or a checksum somewhere is not checking.
Do you have any ideea how can I fix this?
You didn't superCID did you?
Sounds like you screwed over your GSM section, check with the SPV Services client if it can read your CID/SIM-Lock status
Phil
It was probably that... but to my knowledge I ran lokiwiz.bat.
No, SPV Services can't read the info from my phone - Illegal readZone attempt - RAPI init failed

this means your phone was not application unlocked properly..
Right! Now spv-services works.
When clicking on the SIMLock Tools I get phone unlocked 00000000000000.
When clicking on the CID Tool I get:
Current CID: 0800313131313131313100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Technical details:
Now: 160 = 87554b2c510d9ed5da3c2b29dc9068653ce2b67d2065595e3ce2b67d2065595e, 160 = 4d0c1bd5d17f2fc4
Chg: 160 = 87554b2c510d9ed5da3c2b29dc9068653ce2b67d2065595e3ce2b67d2065595e, 160 = 4d0c1bd5d17f2fc4
cool. Enjoy!
Ok, now try flashing WM6GSMUPDATE and then a WM6 ROM and it SHOULD work
Phil
I flashed the WM6GSMUPDATE and then the WM6 ROM and it still doesn't work. After flashing the WM6 ROM I get returned to the old ROM's bitmap with Cingular logo and then the bootloader appears. Any ideeas? Can you give me a direct link to the latest WM6 ROM? Perhaps mine is somehow damaged although I succesfully flashed another C600.
Thanks.
Any ideas? Please?
Is there any way to fix the "Data crashes. Please contact your service center." problem using a HTC Tornado?
Htc Sda T-mobile Is Dead
MY PHONE IS DEAD WHEN POWER UP ONLY SEE T-MOBILE AND DEAD, THE PROBLEN I HAVE WHEN I try flash a WM6 ROM AND MY COMPUTER SHUT DOWN, NOW IS IMPOSIBILE TO ME TO MAKE A RESET OF THE PHONE YOU KNOW WHAT I NEED TO DO, THANK YOU AND I WAIT YOUR ANSWER
Can you get to the bootloader? If yes, then try flashing again.
Hey guys,
I am a new comer in this forum. I have been trying to update my T-mobile MDA vario for quite sometime now. I have read almost all the guides and instructions in this site. But I don't know what problem I am having. I tried both TNT.1437.Wizard.Touch and TNT.1921_Wizard_TouchFLO roms. In both case the flashing got stuck at 99% and then showed an error 302. then I had to get back to my shipped 2.21 original rom and try again. I also tried XM6r3 rom. I don't understand what I am doing wrong. Please can anybody help me!!! in the guide I was told to flash with 2.26 rom. But whenever I try it it shows invalid vendor id error. ???? What to do now. Is it impossible to upgrade to WM6 in T-Mobile MDA vario. (I CID unlocked my phone following the guide) Any help will be highly appreciated. thanks
MDA vario comes CID locked.. Unlock CID..search for WST... wizard service tool and unlock CID first.
irisiris is mostly right, if you get the invalid vendor id error then you're probably still CID lock. You said that you CID unlocked it already, but it might not have taken. The part he was wrong about though is that WST can't CID unlock your phone, you need lokiwiz to do that which I'm assuming you already knew. However, WST can tell you if you're CID unlocked or not. Just run it on your computer and click the CID actions button and it will tell you if you're CID unlocked or not for sure.
EDIT: Actually I was wrong, mestrini did add CID unlocking to the latest version of WST. Sorry irisiris.
you guys are right I finally CID unlocked my device. I checked it with WST and it said it is unlocked. Now I am in XDA mini rom with IPL/SPL 1.05. now I tried to flash with official tmobile 2.26 rom. but I still get the invalid vendor error. Now what to do????
In case you haven't solved your problem yet, download this file. If the T-Mobile 2.26 is still in the single executable type file that it was when you downloaded it, use either winzip or winrar to extract it to it's individual components then extract this file and allow it to replace the file it needs to replace in the folder you extracted the t-mobile ROM to. Then, just double click on the file to start the flash. Just in case, the name of the file you're going to double click on is named ROMUpdateUtility_Wizard_NoID. This should solve the invalid vendor error.
Hi there,
I have bricked my vox whilst flashing it using Jocky's USPL utility, the cable fell out and now all that the vox will do is boot up to the HTC splash screen and then hang.
I can get the phone to the bootloader screen but I can't flash a new ROM as it is previously a Vodafone branded v1415 so I get Invalid Vender ID no matter what ROM I use.
I guess I need the official VF UK one but I have searched the web for hours now and I am unable to source it.
Is it possible to get round the Invalid Vender ID in any way from the bootloader screen as I obviously can't boot it to be able to use the SDA unlocker.
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I don't know where you can find vodafone rom for 1415 but you can try with this swiss rom for their XPA v1415 version of VOX.

Guys have you tried removing the Operator ID from the nbh file before flashing it ?
You can use TyphoonNBFTools to do that.. If you remove the operator field completely you should be able to flash the rom you want with a locked SPL..
But there is just the problem that it is a NBH file and TyphoonNBFTools can only, as the name suggests, only open NBF file.. So you need to find some tool to convert a NBH file to NBF, remove the operator field, and convert back again, and flash..
Or what about flashing the new SPL while in Bootloader with a RUU? But be aware i do not know if that could brick your device forever..

Also, maybe in your searching, you've found a solution for my other Thread problem (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=389065)? I just need to update rom via MiniSD and not via USB...
Thanks

I've gone and done the same thing, but the problem is when I follow your instructions the .nbf file that is produced after the header has been changed is only 512 bytes! So the updater con't read it, what can I do?
tiny nbf
When I change the CID header using typhoonnbftools, the resulting file is only ever 1kb or smaller. What am I doing wrong?
