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...

if the Vendor ID is the same it will work
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.

[Q] I can't put Chevron after come back to 7004

I try Mango Beta, it's nice but after I go back to 7004.
I want to put chevron another time before put 7392, but now it's impossible for me !
I unload all programs, reinstall, delete host file, try another PC always the same message from chevron : "sorry, I'm having trouble communicating ..." Zune running, mozart was synchronise but ...
I think that Mango modify something in my mozart like Dfrouter mode.
Somebody can help me ?
Thank's

Did you try to uninstall 4.8 of Zune? Go back to 4.7 and give that a try.

Yes of course I go back on 4.7 but nothing
Same with another PC no used before, same !

You should be able to do it. I had locked mango --> reinstalled factory 7004 --> updated to 7008 --> Chevron unlocked --> updated to nodo --> updated to Mango again, but this time kept my unlock via root tools and diagnosis app. This way is wayyyy easier than Ansar's way.

thank's for this infos.
But where can I found original Rom 7004 for my Mozart ?

Hi! Here it is, for your Mozart. This ROM is for Europe, it doesn't locked to an operator: http://www.multiupload.com/9SHOGGR9FC
Hm, I guess you are using ORANGE? Two ROMs are for you:
http://rapidshare.com/files/4428317...03_Radio_5.50.09.18_22.24.50.09U_by_ansar.zip
http://rapidshare.com/files/4500441...10_Radio_5.50.09.18_22.24.50.09U_by_ansar.zip
I don't know which one you should use, but this ROMs are not NoDo.

Thank's I try this one and I say to you if it's ok !

erro vendor id
not for me !
I search Rom for french !

Ok I try two another ROM but always same problem ...
Now I'm waiting official Mango release and official Chevron for update my Mozart
thank's for your repons.

It seems I've found the proper ROM for your device:
http://rapidshare.com/files/4533324...35_Radio_5.50.09.18_22.24.50.09U_by_ansar.zip
It's for Orange, France. Should be without NoDo. Check it!

[Q] HTC Shipped Mango ROM ERROR. Help?

I was attempting to flash the new Shubert HTC Shipped Mango ROM on my HTC HD7 which was running the DFT FREEDOM 7720 ROM.
I ran RSPL. Started to flash the ROM. Then it stopped at 7% with an "Invalid Device ID" error.
Now my phone only powers into bootloader mode and not into the OS. Also, the SPL went from 3.1 to 4.5 so now I can't flash anything over it.
Can anyone tell me how to get my SPL back to 3.1? Or am I in trouble?
Thanks.

sorry but u r in trouble didnt u read the warning on the dft thread...
"WARNING TO ALL:
Do NOT use RSPL / HSPL with Mozart 4.XX and other RUU ROMS with MANGO.
All WP7F devices affected: MOZART, GOLD, SCHUBERT, MONDRIAN, SPARK!
It will damage your device. Not a joke"
now u must wait until a solution is found sorry.

You should still be able to flash a rom to your device. It must be a rom that was originally made for your device. Ex. Tmobile us rom to an American tmobile hd7.

Thanks for your reply.
Technically, I used RSPL when it was still on 3.1. When the error occured at 7%, my phone rebooted into bootloader mode with spl 4.5 and is stuck there. And I haven't used RSPL / HSPL since.
In the original thread I read a post that read,
"Beware that this will change your spl to 4.5, if you want to go back only flash a ROM that is specific to your device, like mine is TMOUS device id .531
Even I had unbranded it HSPL way, that doesn't mean I lost my device ID. So in order for me to use HSPL again, I need to flash the TMOUS .531 radio version"
These english translations are hard to decipher. Which is why I misunderstood the warnings to begin with. Any help is appreciated.
Regards,
tiu

If I run RSPL to flash a stock TMOUS rom, it will ask for my SPL version number. But SPL 4.5 is not an option in the pull down menu. It only goes up to 3.4
Do you have any advice for which I should choose?

the point is your phone needs to be spl when flashing mango roms ,it can not be rspl/hspl... was your phone spl when u attempted to flash the mango rom ?

Thank you again for your help. One last question, if I try to flash a stock ROM should I go with my original SPL version 3.1?
Or should I try to go with 3.4 which is closer to 4.5?
[edit]Nevermind. You said no need for RSPL. Think I finally get that part.
[edit]It worked! Thanks again for your help. Gotta love the xda community.

It worked! Without RSPL, I've flashed a TMOUS pre NoDo stock ROM and my SPL version is back to 1.5
Thank you again for all of your help. It is much appreciated. Take care!

rspl/hspl is only needed to flash custom roms...the tmous stock rom will include original spl ... i think u r lucky the flash of the mango rom failed cuz if it didnt ur bootloader wouldve been inoperative..

[Q] Downgrading 5.XX bootloader for my TMO_DE branded Mozart

Hello
I know this has been discussed alot. But i just want to check in before doing this to my phone.
So i have upgraded to 5.11 Bootloader unwillingly and now i want to downgrade back to a 1.xx bootloader and install a HSPL So i could install a Custom full unlocked WP7 phone
First of all here is my phone's current status:
HTC 7 Mozart (1st gen) TMO branded with no sim lock
OS:7.10.7720.68
Firmware: 2250.21.50401.111
HW revision: 0004
Radio: 5.71.09.02a_22.51.50.21U
Bootloader: 5.11.2250.1(133065)
Unfortunately I have no access to any Android/WM 6.5 phone and i have no SD/micro-SD card (I can buy them, but i'd rather not because they have no use to me) But i do have a 8GB USB flash.
So, from what i have read, Since i have a TMO_DE (111) phone, I cannot use ansar's ROMs to downgrade and my only option would be the goldcard method.
The only thread about downgrading 5.xx SPL that i meet their requirements is This
So a few questions:
1. Do i have to use the Goldcard.IMG provided in that thread or i need to make myself one for Mozart as said in other threads?
2. Im going to use "RUU_Mozart_TMO_DE_1.30.401.01_Radio_5.54.09.21_22.33b.50U_NoDo_Signed_by_ansar" ROM. Is this correct ROM to do a downgrade with?
3. Just checking in, After a successful Downgrade (If i don't brick my phone) Im going to first Install HSPL as instructed in [DFT][Updated!#3] HSPL / RSPL for HTC WP7 First Generation And then Install a Custom ROM in [update][DFT Freedom ROM] Mozart mango 7720 V2 version. Is this right to get a FULL unlocked device?
4. After i Downgrade my phone using Goldcard, Do i get a working OS so i can resume the work later?
Thank you all. And let this topic stay to answer some newbies like me

Ad. 1. You can use Goldcard.img from that topic (post #5).
Ad. 2. I think so it's ok ROM, but you have to try.
Ad. 3. Yes.
Ad. 4. After downgrade you can install other stockROM or (if you have HSPL) costomROM. If you install stockROM you lost HSPL.
You can try that downgrade method (SLSPL by Ansar): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1196183 for HTC Mozart you have link in #2 post.

Question 4: Yes. Downgrading the SPL (even breaking it, which is what a "half-bricked" phone has) does not limit the ability of the OS to operate.
Note, however, that any official updates installed during this time may also include a new SPL, forcing you to downgrade it again if you want to use a custom ROM.

Hello
Thank you for your answers
about ansar's downgrade thread, Im not sure if i can use those roms for my phone. Can you confirm that they will work on my device?
I'd love such a easy method instead of creating a Y cable

Hello
So i assume that i won't get a full brick even if i get a failure update or even power loss in the middle of updating process?
Thank you

Are you read Ansar topic (point 3 - bold)?
The process is as simple as of these 3 steps
1. Download the proper SLSPL ROM for your branded device operator, see post #2
2. Flash the provided SLSPL ROM and will re-boot in tricolor Bootloader screen, see post #3
3. Flash ANY Stock ROM of your branded device operator and finish the story of 5.10 Bootloader

Yes, but i don't understand what it does mean exactly
Do you mean that those roms will work on my device (to downgrade it) but i need to have a Stock rom to install on it? (but i can install HSPL on top of it to get custom roms, right?)
I can't think of any other definition right now
And i'm sorry my english is not that good, so maybe you can clear it up for me if it's not that?

1. Install SLSPL ROM for Mozart: RUU_Mozart_HTC_Europe_5.11.401.01_SLSPL_Signed_by_ ansar.zip

Thanks for clearing things up
Trying this now.

I have downloaded RUU_Mozart_HTC_Europe_5.11.401.01_SLSPL_Signed_by_ansar.zip And tried to flash my Mozart. But got the "INVALID VENDER ID" error (My phone is not branded). I live in Middle East. Does this mean that I can't use the Europe version (which ansar provided) to flash my Phone?
Apologies for the kind of naive question. I'm still a newbie in these stuff.

Hmmm I don't know why, but I think so you have to ask Ansar why you can't install that ROM.

Not able to do HSPL on HTC 7 Pro - bootloaderproblem

Hello guys,
I'm having trouble with my HTC 7 Pro.
Principially, I want to fully unlock my phone.
To do so, I wanted to install the HSPL. When I did that, I recognized that my current SPL is too high, 5.12.2258.0.
So, I tried do downgrade the SPL, but when I enter the bootloader, it doesn't tell me "serial" or "usb" any more....
I also did a hardreset, but nothing changed.
But do I have to do? Please help!
Thanks a lot!

Your device is half-brick. You have to install new SPL in service with JTag. At home you can't do that.

i dont think you need a t-mobile ROM, all you need is just do to a gold card SPL bootloader downgrade to 1.22 and then flash any stock signed rom which you have here on the forum, just search for "htc 7 pro stock rom" after that you can do a rspl and then a hspl. after that a custom rom for htc 7 pro. i have the New Tech ROM from ansar which is Tango 8773. unlocked and very good. no problem with this rom. and the best is it stays unlocked even after a hard reset!
if you dont have cables for gold card method, try ansars htc SLSPL (Stock limited SPL) and after that stock rom for htc 7 pro - rspl - hspl - custom rom there is a tutorial for this here on the forum just search for ansar SLSPL htc or something like that.
i think the gold card method is the easiest, i've done it several times, even after i flashed an rom to SPL (without rspl - hspl) and bricked my device! only the gold card method helped me out there. no i have HSPL 1.22 an Tango 8773 and all working.

Thank you guys for the answers.
I managed to build my own Y-Cable. When I plug it into my running PC and my running 7 Pro, the battery is loading. So I think the cable itself should work.
I downloaded this rom "RUU_Gold_HTC_Europe_1.22.401.01_Radio_5.63.09.13_3 a_22.36.50.15U_by_ansar" to downgrade SPL. Then I applied the goldcardmethod as "Budniu" explained it in his video. One Problem in that context could be that I only found a 2GB SanDisk-MicroSD-Card.
Anyway, when I first entered the USB-Hostmode for the first three or four times, nothing happened. After unpluggin the card several times, the 7 Pro finally showed "Loading", then "checking" and in the end "not allow".
What do I do wrong? Is it the wrong ROM or do I have to have a 1GB SD-Card?
Please help me!
Kindest regards!
