A friend has just purchased a phone from ebay and it also has the UTStarcom on the front of the phone but when I tried to flash it it gave me a error about the country code was wrong and would not flash it. He is with alltel in the U.S. The phone works great and is activated with no problem. Was just wondering if anyone has run across this ERROR 120 country ID Error and how to fix.
He is running WM 5 and would like to go to WM6.1 and the bootloader VER is 2.04
Rom 2.11.20.WWE
Radio 1.15.00
I was wondering, With my old nokia, to install a a different but 'Official' rom all that had to be done was to change the product code for the Nokia device, eg 2201 would be vodafone uk 2202 would be Nokia Euro unbranded.
I was wondering would it be possible for this to be done with an android device, (install uk unbranded) but also recieve all other updated released by HTC like a normal unbradned user, as this is what could be done on a nokia.
HTC must have some way to idenfy what type of phone is what (UK Voda branded or otherwise)
or would I simply have to wait for root/s-off and then install the Eu rom (and still be able to install updates released by HTC)
The way they identify which gets which, is by the rom on it, the rom version is the product id When we get open bootloader we can flash some other rom, and then install updates from that country
Hello everyone!
I'm using a HTC Trophy with the Mango RTM software. I tried to install the official HTC Mango software, but the Update failed with error 294, invalid vendor id because my phone is branded for A1, Austria.
Is there any way to install this unbranded firmware onto my branded phone? I considered inserting another modelid.fig from a official A1 firmware, but i found no A1 branded firmware image at all... Another way would be to unbrand that phone and install the unbranded firmware, but I found no way to unbrand that phone without disassembing it to get the sd card. There seems to be no way to run this software on A1 branded phones...
Any Ideas? Thank you!
Hi,
Have a look at this forum:

Had the same issue and it solved everything for me.
Here is my question I have an HTC 7 PRO (aka HTC ARRIVE,HTC GOLD) the model is HTC USCCHTC-PC93100 I have a student unlock but I need a full unlock. I am new to rom flashing on windows phones im used to jailbreaking and rooting android and ios. I was looking at try to flash this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1499981 to my phone what I want to know is is it possible to flash this to my model of HTC and if I do flash it will it will I have to take my phone back to US cellular to have them reprogram the phone to their network or will it work just like normal after flashing any adive would help thanks.
Do you have a GOLD (also known as the 7 Pro) or a GOLD_C (also known as the Arrive)? The GOLD is a GSM phone, and won't work on Sprint or any other CDMA carrier. The Arrive is a CDMA phone and won't work on T-Mobile or any other GSM carrier. Flashing the ROM won't help here, either - this is a hardware issue (literally, the radios are different, plus GSM phones have SIM card slots and CDMA phones usually don't). Do *not* attempt to flash a GOLD_C ROM to a GOLD or vice-versa; it'll probably fail but if it doesn't you may make the phone unusable and unrecoverable short of using a JTAG connection.
However, if you want to flash a GSM ROM to a GSM phone, or a CDMA ROM to a CDMA phone, go ahead. However, that won't remove the SIM-lock if there is one. The odds are, if the phone can't be activated with your preferred carrier right now, re-flashing the ROM won't help.
US Cellular says its a 7 PRO but model says 93100 which is the arrive it doesn't have a sim slot so it is a CDMA and DFTs XSPL Tool says its a GOLD_C it has spl version 4.1.230513.1 I have tried the spl downgrade tool but it fails at 4 percent and says invalid vendor ID but if I did manage to flash it would if have to be reprogramed by us cellular to work again since its CDMA and not a sim card
I ran a system information tool and it reports the phone as the HTC arrive so I'm not sure why us cellular markets the phone as the 7 pro but it is definitely the HTC arrive gold_c with a sol of 4.3
Try to flash the older version of your US cellular radio (download from the website in this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1427907)
And then try to flash it, using the directions listed here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1295068
In other words, you want to downgrade your SPL with just a radio flash (task 00). It is not necessary to flash the whole ROM. (Or you can do a hard reset - no big deal, as you will loose all your stuff anyway if you do flash a new ROM)
Then, you can go ahead and try to change RSPL and flash the ROM to see if it works. If not, not big deal, can always flash back your stock rom (also avail on above web site)
I have managed to downgrade my htc arrive us cellular spl and I used the xspl tool to install rspl and hspl now is it possible for me to flash this rom image: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1499981
the only thing is the rom image says gold_c_sprint and my carrier is us cellular will I be able to flash this and use the phone like normally or will I have to take the phone back to us cellular after flashing and have them set the phone back up with there network
I have managed to flash my phone with the rom I posted and it still works but all branding on the phone is now sprint is there any way to get the branding back to US Cellular via reg edit for warranty purposes I have went into
HKLM\System\Platform\DeviceTargetingInfo\ and changed mobile operator to USC-US which is US cellular
I also changed the MODeviceName into USCCHTC-PC93100 which was the original name of the device. but im not sure if there's anything else that need to be changed and I cant figure out how to get the marketplace back to the us cellular marketplace they had apps that were only available when it was set up with us cell
I would be careful of changing things in DeviceTargetingInfo; poke the wrong setting and your Marketplace (and all apps installed from it) can stop working or your phone may receive an update that damages it due to an incompatibility with a prior update from a different MO or something.
There is a "Marketplace Config" app available that allows you to select the OEM and MO marketplaces. On a GSM phone, the MO marketplace is usually automatically switched depending on the SIM card (this switch may take a day or two).
Another option would be to start with the US Cellular ROM, and customize it with full-unlock and any other changes you want. This is not my area, though; I have no real experience with creating custom ROMs but there are entire sections of this forum devoted to the topic.
that might be what I have to do is just make a custom us cellular rom Ill look for a section in the fourm to see what I can find on how to make a custom rom

Hello this is androidadmirer
I have a sm-a136u 5g united States
Version from metro pcs
I recently took the a136w Canadian firmware and combined it with my original firmware for the a136u and flashed it successfully
Everything works except the software update which I'm glad that it doesn't that way it can't update every time there's an update and the bootloader keeps changing anyway,
I got stupid a d decided to see what would happen if I patched the entire ap file through Magisk
It patched, I flashed it in Odin it took but then it gave me the verify error of course.
So it took me all day to figure how to unbrick it but I got it back
So my question is with some of the international firmware for the a13 5g
Could I port that firmware with mine like I did the other and the international firmware will allow bootloader unlocking and have oem unlock in developer options
Couldn't that throeritically work
Only problem is the waiting
I have to wait for bit 4 to come out on any of the other firmware right now only
Canada and the u.s are on bit 4
Anybody ? Any input is good input !!
