[Q] Legend de-brand Firmware help please :-)

Hi, being an almost total novice i need a little help!
I seem to have hit a brick wall while attemping to de-brand my UK Vodaphone branded HTC Legend!
I just tried with two with different goldcards and three different ROM files (thats six seperate attempts)
each time it failed the same way: ERROR [140]: BOOTLOADER VERSION ERROR
If anyone can offer any advice I would be very gratefull - I really need to get rid of all the Vodaphone bloatware that doesnt even work properly.
BTW - I made a new Goldcard each time but can a goldcard be used more than once?
I created a goldcard using a 2gb MicroSD card made by Kingston and i followed the process at:
How To: Create a Goldcard | TheUnlockr
I downloaded file:
RUU_Legend_HTC_WWE_2.03.405.3_Radio_47.39.35.09_7. 08.35.21_release_130330_signed.exe from Index of /shipped/Legend/
I turned my phone on with the goldcard inserted and connected my phone to my PC with the USB cable and ran the RUU - Result =
ERROR [140]: BOOTLOADER VERSION ERROR
Here are all the numbers from my HTC Legend
Information from: Menu -> Settings -? About Phone -> Software Information
Firmware Version: 2.1 update 1
Baseband Version: 47.39.35.09u_7.08.35.21
Kernel Version: 2.6.29-5f084974 [email protected]#1
Build Number: 2.05.161.1 CL191838 release-keys
Software Number: 2.05.161.1
Browser version: Webkit 3.1
When I start the device by pressing vol down + power button I get the information below:

MICROP-0816
TOUCH PANEL-SYN07_0105
RADIO-7.08.35.21
Feb 18 2010,16:29:10
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
So far I have tried to load the following RUU files - they all failed with the same error!
RUU_Legend_HTC_WWE_1.23.405.1_Radio_47.26.35.04_7. 05.35.26L_release_120393_signed.exe
RUU_Legend_HTC_WWE_1.31.405.4_R_Radio_47.26.35.04_ 7.05.35.26L_release_123853_signed.exe
RUU_Legend_HTC_WWE_1.31.405.5_R_Radio_47.26.35.04_ 7.05.35.26L_release_126592_signed.exe
RUU_Legend_HTC_WWE_2.03.405.3_Radio_47.39.35.09_7. 08.35.21_release_130330_signed.exe
:-((
I guess I am missing something, can anyone point me in the right direction?

[Q] Bell Canada RUU ROM?

Hey, this is my first post here guys, finally got a cell phone after going through school procrastinating the hassles and fun. Ended up getting the HTC Sensation from Bell Canada, because the Desire Z is now discontinued (September 2011).
What I want to know before I start following the noob's guide to S-OFF and root, is does anyone have an Original RUU ROM for my version?
HTC Sensation - Bell
Android 2.3.3
HTC Sense 3.0
Software 1.34.666.1
Kernel 2.6.35.10-ge52b0af
[email protected] #1
SMP PREEMPT Thu Jun 2 21:21:05 CST 2011
Baseband 10.46.9007.00U_10.12.9007.01_M3
Build 1.34.666.1 CL79935 release-keys
Browser Webkit/533.1
Model HTC-Z710a
I see many roms in the ROM list, 10.43, 10.42, 10.56, etc, but none for my 10.46.9007 baseband... Does that mean we're dealing with a new version here or has anyone had problems flashing it before?

There may not be one for your specific provider but the WWE unbranded editions will work fine if you need to run a RUU just make sure you do the Super CID part, and take a backup of your phone after installing CWM.
If you keep a backup of your stock bell software somewhere you can always restore then flash the stock recovery, from there if a OTA update comes up you can flash it and return to complete stock.

Thanks! I found how to do the ClockWorkMod backup, and it's saved in a safe location now. Thank you for letting me know that the unbranded editions will work fine in case of an emergency.
Oh and in case anyone is wondering, xl VipeR lx's guide to S-Off and root worked flawlessly with my Bell HTC Sensation. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1192300

Problem with calls when phone is on Auto GSM / WCDMA

I've bought my Sensation XE on January from a store here in Greece.
From the beginning i noticed that when either i was making or receiving a call ,after 2 or 5 min ,i stopped hearing the person on the other end and he couldn't hear me also.
I've checked the phone and the call was still active.I've tried a lot of times either making a call or receiving one with different people and different Carriers.
That was happening only when my phone was on Auto GSM / WCDMA.When i was changing it to GSM only everything were OK.
I thought it can be a problem of my Carrier and i went to the store to get a new SIM Card.Despite the new SIM the problem still exist.
I called HTC Support and they told me to take off the battery while phone is turned on, then do a factory reset, and asked me to put another Carrier's SIM.
I did all those things they proposed ,but still the problem exist.Then they told me to sent it to HTC Official Service Center and tell them about my problem.
I went to HTC Official Service Center and told them about the problem and my communication with the HTC Support and they kept my phone for a check.After one week they informed me that they will replace the Main Board with a new one ,but i have to wait 2 weeks cause the Main Board comes from Turkey.
Finally last week i received my phone and the papers with the Main Board replacement and my new IMEI.
I installed my SIM , my SD Card ,and the Battery and i've synced only my Contacts from Gmail.I 've started making calls and after 5 min the same problem , call freezed like dead.
I called HTC and they told me to sent it again to Service.
If anyone can help me , or has any common experience and it's solution i'll be grateful.
Thanks.
My HTC Sensation XE info:
CID: HTC__M27 (HTC Turkey) although i bought it in Greece

I've finally got it back today from HTC Service.
The reason was (as they said) a problem with software and they were waiting 3 weeks from HTC Taiwan (which is responsible for all software deliveries) to sent them an upgrade.
I turned on the phone and the software thing was ....... ICS.
So now i'm having :
My OLD____HTC Sensation XE info:
CID: HTC__M27 (HTC Turkey) although i bought it in Greece
Bootloader: 1.18.0000
Baseband: 10.14.9035.02_2
Rom Ver.: 1.73.468.4
Version Release: 2.3.4
My NEW____HTC Sensation XE info:
CID: HTC__M27 (HTC Turkey) although i bought it in Greece
Bootloader: 1.18.0000

Rom Ver.: 3.32.468.112
Version Release: 4.0.3

So if can anyone help me how to export this Official Stock ICS Rom from my phone and uploaded somewhere , in order other users to have it , it would be nice.
Thanx.

[Q] t-mobile sensation 4g - ics upgrade puts me in big trouble!

complete noob! please help!
I received the OTA and upgraded the phone to ics. The phone is an unlocked(to accept any sim cards world wide) t-mobile sensation 4g. When I upgraded the phone, it had a Qatar telecom SIM card inside and it rebooted and connected to the mobile network. However, it doesnt want to do wifi connection! it doesn't list any wifi SSIDs to connect!!!!!
to test, i put my t-mobile usa sim card and the wifi works fine!!!! also, vodafone UK sim card works fine!! But, when I put Qatar telecom sim cards, the wifi doesnt want to work!!!! i tried my friend's qatar telecom SIM card to see if the problem is with my sim card, but that one too didn't allow me to connect to wifi. I tried without any SIM cards also and then too it didn't list any wifi access points!!!
I did factory resets 2 times already and that didn't help either.
i rebooted the phone and pressed the volume button down and the phone shows the following....

Yes they do. See Steve007 post in the development section.....it has the ROM and the RUU link.
Sent from my FireStorm StockMod (Release Date 5.18.2012) Sensation 4G

i am downloading the RUU now!
will it put what they call "stock recovery" also?
but what I don't understand is when i put a different sim card, the wifi works! i can see full signal strength and connected to my SSID. is it any way connected to SIM card?
i will run the RUU and then let you know.

ran RUU linked by steve. unfortunately it comes with a 155 error. then I get update fail, security fail
i so much like the ics, but the wifi issue kills me!
may I know how I can put the phone exactly to how it came out of the box?
the software and stock recovery?
t-mobile site doesn't give any information on the problems....

Flashed Incompatible Rom Over Old Firmware - S-ON

Details:
kernel: lk
product: htc_hiaeul
version: 1.0
imei: 352637070568673
version-main: 1.10.502.3
boot-mode: download
version-baseband: [email protected]
version-bootloader: 1.0.0.0000
mid: 2PQ912000
cid: CWS__001
I flashed a rom which depends on a newer firmware than the one my A9 is on, I had no idea about s-on or how it affected or limited flashing roms or firmware upgrades and downgrades, but now I do.
My only choice here is to flash the exact same firmware that the phone has right now or newer, with a matching CID. There is only one, 1.27.502.5 that I found the .exe for, but it takes a long time to open and when it does always fails to recognize my device and I definitely have all of the right drivers installed.
The zip which I have found mentioned on here several times over for my exact firmware version I am unable to download because Android File Host has such horrible download speeds, I haven't made it past 146mb before the file corrupts and marks itself as complete and I've tried for hours, many different methods to only reach the same outcome. Its very frustrating that the only mirror available is from California (I'm in Florida) but that despite still being located in the US, it doesn't break 600kbps for the greater duration of any attempts to wait it out.
Had I known about this limitation, I would have never bought this phone, but I've always wanted an HTC and thoroughly enjoyed it until now. It has cost me many hours but I have given them willingly, despite my inexperience about this subject or the processes involved.
If anyone can help me out with a mirror to this firmware (1.10.502.3) in zip format, I would be so grateful. If anyone has any suggestions besides recommending that I pay for sunshine, then converting my phone to a developer version, because I'm barely able to afford my rent as it is it would be so appreciated!
