C500 no alternative ROMS ? - HTC Typhoon

I have a c500 as 2nd phone, T-Mobile Sim, application and sim unlocked.
I've tried flashing other roms but it says vendor invalid. Has anyone ran an alternative rom that supports the toggle stick (rather than proper joystick of other typhoons) ? The Qtek site doesn't have an easy access link to grab the 8010 rom any more.

I need the same thing.
I have a C500 and a ROM that's givin me nothing but headaches!!
I would like to flash it with another ROM.... for instance Qtek or I-mate.
I have no clue where I can find this nor if it's possible. can somebody please help?... I can't make a descent Phonecall with it.

I can't unlock my phone to use my two SIMCards
HELP me ...
Please
(It's ORANGE FRENCH SPV M600 !)
not working on a qtek s200
Right, let me get this straight...
"Lockiwiz can only unlock your Prophet device if your Rom version is 1.XX.XXX. For the new AKU2 ROMS (i.e Orange M600 ROM) there is no solution yet."
If this is the case, then can we use A-Wizard or the hacked romupdateutility to FLASH back to a pre-AKU2 ROM and then use Lokiwiz to unlock the device, and then flash back to a 'latest AKU2 ROM' (Dopod one is latest and greatest atm) and continue to have a SIM UNLOCKED device???
Please can someone try this? I get my M600 in a week and need to be able to unlock it. Am in the USA atm and need to use a T-Mobile SIM in it.
Appreciate any help.
in theory that would work.... the problem is that i havent seen any rom 1.xx for qtek s200 except for an arabic one or the one from imate jamin. unfortunately, not even with the modified romupdateutility we can flash roms from previous versions from the one installed on prophets...
not only that needs to be corrected, but then someone would have to get a non-aku2 rom, costumize it and then flash it so that the sim lock can be removed.
i need to unlock my prophet too, but i predict a long waiting period ahead...
Doesn't work on my Qtek S200 either :?
I have just CID unlocked my Qtek s200.
What I did.
Downgrade to JAMin_WWE_1000925_10009114_11420_ship.exe
You will need to use a hacked version of the rom update utility or something like JAFWM.
Next I ran awizard latest beta.
And chose unlock rapi.
and then unlock CID.
My qtek s200 was then unlocked. I checked this by running r2sd all command from bootloader.
Hope that helps someone. I will detail these steps and add them to the wiki page for the prophet.
I've tried the following 3 ROMS with the "NoVendorID" loader:
RUU_Prophet_1001321_10013102_11320_DopodAsia_Ship
JAMin_WWE_1000925_10009114_11420_ship
JAMin_Arabic_1000927_10009115_11420_ship
Unfortunately none of them would load as the version was older than the current one on the phone.
Anyone know if it is the loader on the PC that is rejecting the "nk.nbf" file due to its version being lower than the one already on the phone, or is it the loader that is in the phone?
It should be easier to create a hacked loader for the PC so I hope it's that way. It might be a bit risky to hack the loader on the phone as you're in trouble if that goes wrong and you loose the loader on the phone.
Perhaps the old "nk.nbf" file could have its embeded version number tweeked to look new enough? Sounds like the simplest approach, although there are no doubt checksums to make it more difficult.
Or is there a utility to erase all of the phones FLASH except for the loader. Surely it would not complain about any version you loaded then?

It is possible with JAFWM 2.0
Release of JAFWM 2.0 will be 17 of June, there is unlocking implemented but it will be not for free, every handset will cost one credit. Unlock procedure takes around 10 seconds and does not require any technical knowledge.
Since no need downgrade the phone, you also no need worry to damage the phone.

How much is 'one credit' in real money?
For each JAFWM serial number is only one FREE credit possible. Test it, and post here your opinon. I give only 100 free credits to 100 different
We are testing now the beta 4 with Typhoon, Hurricane, Tornado, Wizard/Prophet, Charmer, Prodigy unlock support. Any rom version is supported, please do not try downgrade your phone before, just leave it in ORIGINAL STATE.
Please ask ONLY for a free credit if you really got the phone on hand and can test it right now.
How it works:
1.) make sure you update your pkey online
2.) download latest beta from http://files.odeon.cn/JAFWM

4.) put your phone in BOOT MODE
5.) connect cable and press the UNLOCK button

!IMPORTANT! Question regarding NO_ID - Want JJ ROM on myexec

I am sick of the old ROM, and the outdated Radio. I think many problems can be solved if I can upgrade my O2 Exec ROM to the new JARJAR one from a month ago that was posted on clubimate.
I know I need to use a tool called NO_ID something to make my machine accept a different ROM than O2, say the Jasjar ROM.
THREE PROBLEMS:
1) After making the upgrade, can I CHANGE my DEVICE ID back to the one which I've had before? I have a program that I purchased for a lot of money and it works by the device id only! They are not willing to give me a new version. So I gotta be able to change my Device ID back to the one I had. Is it possible? Would the JJ ROM work after the upgrade if the DeviceID is changed?
2) Can I safely and absolutly for sure revert back to the old ROM which I had? Just in case something will happen?
3) How can I get the latest OFFICIAL Imate rom? Clubimate will not let me download it I guess, because I don't own an IMEIA of a JJ but rather of the Exec.
I appreciate the help!

What do you mean "Device ID" ? Example please? All the software I've seen so far uses the Owner name as a basis for it's code, but sounds like you mean something else. If you mean the IMEI base code of the phone, that won't change and will stay the same.

There should be no problems. I can't give you a 100% on that because I don't want you coming after me in the very rare circumstances there are problems, but I've flashed my Universal about 15 times in the week I've had it and even though I had a few problems (Radio ROM's) I was always able to reflash it/get it working again (including back to the original ROM).

Thanks for being helpful with the links I'll check them
Regarding Device ID. That is EXACTLY what I meant, I didn't make a mistake. My program goes by the DEVICE ID. I think it works in a similar manner to how the Jasjar Rom update does. That is checking that your device ID states it's really a Jasjar and not XDA, QTEK or Dopod. I have a program that I paid $100 and it says it goes by device ID.
It says my DEVICE ID is: 355195001182280158000050BF3F5120
and that is will not work on any other device.
That said,
I know that the NO_ID hack down here is supposed to delete my Machine's device ID. So I'm afraid it will not work anymore... BTW: My IMEI begines with part of that long device ID string but that string is longer that the IMEI I se on the Settings->Device Information
Thanks

I don't get it. The WIKI page for Universal says that Uni_ROM_1.30.68 is a test rom?!?
Uni_ROM_1.30.68
WARNING: This is a test ROM and may damage your device
So how can I get the OFFICIAL LATEST Imate Rom without going to clubimate which I can't ? (I have Exec not imate)

Can I remove o2 software from an XDA IIi?

Hi there, new here.
Have had a search but couldn't find an answer so:
I have an o2 XDA IIi.
Is it possible at all to reset this device to just a generic device without all the o2 software mods?
If it is does it affect its ability to work on the o2 network (or other networks)- voice and data only.
Also, can this device be upgraded to WM2005 at all?
Thanks
Andrew
hi,
search at this forum about unlock sim tools, so that you can use other networks.
there's no WM2005 for this device.
thanks
Just search for Pug's modified ROM with all the o2 Stuff ripped off. Or install the i-mate or qtek ROMs for this device, as I have done. It works fine, and doesn t effect the operation on the o2 network. You will have to download a CAB file with all the o2 settings off either the i-mate website or on these forums, though.
Thanks
Simpler one is while doing a hard reset ..
when the PDA installing the customization stuff it will ask you to specifiy if your Pocket PC for Personal or Corporate just press cancel
then again press cancell if it tries to install any software then it will ask you are U sure you want to cancel installing 'O2 Mobile Solution SLR' just press Yes ..
thats all
Now your PDA out of O2 setting and customizations ..
NOTE : every hard reset you need to repeat the procedure as it stored in the ROM....
if you wana get rid of all these stuff permenantly used ( ripped-off modified rom ) from xda-developmers ftp site
cheers
Thank you for the replies.
I have tried the soft reset method for now - knowing me I would mess up the ROM upgrade!
Does the job and now looks a lot cleaner
Unlocked too and now running Vodafone...
Andrew
Just another quick question.
Getting confused as to exactly the make and model of my XDA IIi.
I had a look on the i-mate site as suggested above but when I register it does not like my EMEI number.
I also see the Himalaya/Andes and Alpine all look physically the same.
Which is mine and who actually makes it?
The model no of the device says PH10C.
Thanks
Andrew
The XDA IIi is an Alpine.
You can not register an o2 IMEI on i-mate's or Qtek's website, or vice versa. They are different distributors!!!
However, most of the Alpine ROMs can be found on this website or by Googling 'HTC ROM' or something alike.
For i-mate's ROMs, visit here:

Upgrade from wm5 to wm6

hi, i have a tmobile artemis with wm5 on it, when i try downloading the upgrade file from the htc website.
when i put in my serial no it shows: Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device.
not sure if it's just my phone not bein able to handle the software or just the fact that i got it from tmobile, not htc.
would anyone be able to post a solution to this, or the actual upgrade file, if it's possible to get it to work?
many thanks.
Either go to T-Mobiles website and try to download a WM6 ROM from them. Or go to the wiki, read about USPL and then download and flash the HTC ROM from the links in there.
thanks for the reply, sorry im kinda new to this.
finally got it to work, tried a few times not sure if it's me takin out the sim card or just plain luck but its all workin now

Changing ROM

Hello, sorry if I sound nieve with any of this. I am new to flashing etc...
Basically I have an O2 branded HTC HD Mini and would like to know the easiest way of upgrading the ROM, to the current one recentely released from HTC. The HTC help team have basically told me that O2 don't own any rights for HTC updates so none of their updates will work on an O2 branded phone!
Please help.
Thankyou, Trev
In a nutshell, unfortunately you can't do it easily.
You can use SoftSPL to allow you to install a downloaded ROM but it wont update the radio ROM or you could use the Gold Card method, but currently there is a minimum purchase of $30 for Gold Cards.
Your first step is to download a ROM from Conflipper's site then decide how you want to proceed. Or download Tom Codon's excellent cooked ROM!
Unbranding HD Mini
Hi dude. I just flashed my Dads Vodaphone branded HD Mini to the latest HTC ROM. I followed the guide ''[SSPL][DFT] HowTo flash custom OS'' in the ROM Development section.
After that the phone was unbranded. The only problem was that I wasn't recieving a signal. After looking at the Radio version I found that it wasn't showing a version so I assume the Radio wasn't installed.
I fixed this by using the SSPL (the program that you used to flash the official ROM with) to flash HTC's updated version. What you need to do is download the Update for HTC HD mini intermittent audio muting and extract the .exe (using winRAR) to find the Radio_32.2806.05.06_0.63.05.40.nbh. Put this into the same folder with the SSPL and rename it to PHOTIMG.nbh. Once done you can flash it to your device.
This worked fine for me. Call quality is perfect. This removed all Vodaphone's branding and gave me back Copilot and the added extra's that HTC put in. I'll be writing a full guide on how to do this later on.
Trying to flash my HTC HD Mini (O2) to RUU_Photon_HTC_Europe_1.36.401.1_Radio_Signed_32.2 803.05.06_0.63.05.36_Ship.exe
(Currently got RUU_Photon_O2_UK_1.10.206.1_Radio_Signed_32.28.05. 05_0.63.05.18_Ship.exe installed)
But just keep getting error 'invalid vendor ID'
What to do????? can I change vendor ID ??
Having read about Goldcard, I'm guessing that this is what I need to do. Have looked at PSAS and would need to pay 30eur - is there a cheaper way? What about these unlock services that will send you an unlock code based on your IMEI number, would this change vendor ID to ubranded (normally about £12)???
Look in the ROM Development section on this forum and you'll find a guide on how to unbrand the HD Mini. Follow this guide and hopefully it'll work for you.

Nothing works for my O2 one. I think O2 have started doing something odd?
I've noticed that people seem to find it easy with Vodafone, but numerous problems with O2. There doesnt see mto be a definitive guide for unlocking O2 ones specifically - is Goldcard the only option at 30euro? Does anyone offer a Goldcard type serice for cheaper?
