Sorry for what? Normally it is not necessary to open a new threat for any question that you might have, just join the different threats about a particular subject.
I guess you are new to all this upgrading stuff. First of all, and most important, is to find out whether your device is cid-locked or not. I think that it is safe to say that when you got your device through a telephone provider, like Orange or T-Mobile, at a very cheap price, then the device is locked and you should have it unlocked before flashing any ROM (except the official ones that you can download from your providers site). When you bought your device retail, at the full price (the Artemis is sold around 500 euro's), then the device is not locked.
Upgrading itself can be pretty straightforward: just establish an ActiveSync connection, run the <ROM name>.exe from your pc and follow the instructions on your screen.

Unfortunately, no, not really. On older HTC models you could find out by running the mtty tool, but it doesn't work on the Artemis. I read somewhere that on our device that whole locking (and unlocking) method is quite different than on other models. That is also why it seems so hard to develop a free unlock tool for the Artemis.
The only way you can be absolutely sure is by running the unlock tool from imei-check, but they will charge you for it.
If you just THINK that your device might be unlocked, then I would not recommend to try flashing any other than an official ROM. Of course, it is your choice and you might want to take the risk. That risk is that your phone will become 'bricked' and won't start normally. The only way out of that situation is returning it to the seller to have it restored. Some people with a bricked phone however are able to restore it themselves with the original ROM, so make sure that you have that ROM available. Some original ROMs can be found on the internet, but not all of them.

sorry but you said

Just connect the USB, let activesync make the connection and start the BAT file in the dir of the rom... wait 30min

Andreazzo,
Your Artemis, does it have a logo on the body. A logo from maybe T-mobile, Orange, Vodafone, O2 or whatever telecom provider?
If yes, the you shouldn't flash your device with v2.00.02 PV for HTC Artemis ( Crossbow Style ), because the chances are that you will brick it.
If your P3300 only has the HTC logo, then it is fully unlocked and you can flash whatever rom (flavor) you want for the Artemis.
So be aware of the fact. The life of your P3300 is in your hands.

This it is not probably true information. This it is not to end rule
My Artemis he had only logo on body. The logo of start take-off was the only HTC also. No trace T Mobile Orange O2 Vodafone. And I have brick. :{
I tried flash by bootloader however still announcement INVALID ID
Follow for voice grun. get rid (remove) CID - will not it be dust brick as I.

Mate,
Can you please explain the problem ??
Did you try to install anything ?? or did you try to do any ROM upgrade (if you are familiar)
How did all these started ?? give us some details & we might be able to help you

Also can you turn phone on at all now? Can you enter bootloader screen? What does your SPL say?

You could always put your phone into bootloader and flash a radio

How can i do that
how can i know wich radio do i need

You flash a radio the same way you would flash a rom. First of all you need USPL or HSPL on your device. I recommend you read these threads for guidance:
Dummies guide for flashing using USPL or HSPL
1.14.25.24 & Rilphone.dll radio thread
Blackstone Radio Flashing (wiki)
Available Blackstone Radios
I would start with radio 1.14.25.24 as this is latest blackstone radio

It doesnt work yet
please i need you to recommend me a rom to use
can i use the officil one from htc website?
and what else i can try to make my phone work again1

You have a vast choice of roms to use, either stock roms direct from HTC site or from the wiki here or cooked roms from this forum
Would be impossible for me to recommend one as everyone is different and your tastes may well be different from mine. Also you have different windows versions, i.e. wm6.1 & wm6.5. All I can say is try a few and make your own conclusions. At present I am currently using Throys WM6.5 R9 rom

I changed the rom and the radio still dont get signal
NO SERVICE!

You may find that the phone is stolen and phone networks have blocked the IMEI Number this maybe why you donot have any reception
Try asking your Network phone company if this phone is blocked

I Already call and no its not blocked by imei

Rom upgrade for HD2 from o2 (UK) - won't let me!!!

Hi guys, anyone know the way to overcome this?
How to upgrade to a higher ROM?
Even HTC's website won't let me downloading the ROM saying that the upgrade aren't for this device!!!
Please!
p.s. sorry I'm new to winmo...
regards!

use a gold card in sd slot or just install HSPL first

wtf is a gold card? i keep seeing people refer to it but never what it is, i imagine its a sim card with a toffee penny wrapper stuck to it lol

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591314
Basicly its a sd card with its unique serial number run though some software but as its no longer free just use hspl if you dont have a goldcard.

Forget about the goldcard, you don't need one so long as you have a copy of the original rom available, which you do. Hunt it out in the official roms forum. First post, first link, 1.43 section, its listed there. Thats your backup, then instal hspl and you can flash what you like.

Your HD2 is locked to o2 (UK) ROMs only so you cant put any of the official HTC ROMs or any of the custom ROMs from the "HD2 ROM Delvelopment" forum
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=534
because of this your always be running out of date software as the phone operators are always so slow at releasing updates if they do at all.
BUT if you download HSPL from the above forum thread "[HSPL] HowTo flash everything"
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611433
and install it to your phone your then be able to put on any ROM you like. Don't worry its near impossible to muck anything up and you can always put the phone back to its original rom, just do a little reading if your still not sure.

Great Guys! HSPL helped!!! I've upgraded...shame I can't manage to download Rom 1.66 as it always crashes and the download in general is sooo slow (not the internet issue)...but maybe with a bit of patience I'll get it at the end!
Cheers once again!!!

HTC have now listed a new ROM upgrade (1.72.206.3 released 27/04/10) for the HD2 on their UK support website (htc.com/uk)
Let me know how you get on with it as when I enter my o2 serial number I still get the error message you mentioned. I have sent a message to HTC support...just waiting for a reply.

all you o2 guys that cant down load have been able to get 1.66 from htc's site for months now this rom is purley for the forgoton few (like me) who got the phone as o2 launched and locked down (no wifi router etc) I ran this rom for a day and it nice and snappy fast but its still not wm 6.5.3 so i am back on touch-x again now the 2.07 radio in the o2 rom was quite ok in my area when I used it a few months ago but the 2.10 in my opionion is a match for recption with better battery life just my 2 cents hope it may help some of you

What about Virgin Mobile? Will they get a Rom Upgrqade???? they seems to have been left out of the loop even though they were the first (technically second) carrier of the phone.

HELP - Vodafone UK user, ROM issues? *noob*

I recently bought my HTC HD2 from Vodafone UK, it has a ROM 1.43.405.1 and I cannot update the ROM from HTC website because after insert my SN in the validation box it tells me I cannot get the update....
What should I do?
I saw many ROMs on 4shared but I think they not the same in the HTC site...If they are which one of the should I get for my HTC and why? Will I be able to use my phone with my UK Sim?
Help please...

Windows on your ROM is licensed software, and you bought the license implicitly with your Leo, therefore is it "not possible" to just change ROM.
Having said that , google the forum a bit for SSPL and/or HSPL. there are several (graphical) guides that will tell you how to use them (sticky threads).
good luck!

anyone? someone? help me!

I thought that too but on 4shared they do not describe the features.
Any idea where can I see the features?
To put on other non mobile brand ROM, I must unlock the mobile first, right?
If that is the case, how do I unlock it?
If I put one ROM in the mobile and them upload another one will it delete the features from the one that was on the phone previously?

flashing roms is not connected to thee phone being network locked. it will still be locked after you flash it.
look for a world wide english rom version 1.66 (with 1.66 and wwe I'm the name)

Btw after the rom update, if I reset my mobile will it be rested to the factory one or the updated version?

No, doing a hard reset will only ever restore it to the rom you last flashed.
To get back to 'as you bought it' you need to find the rom that matches your device.
(for example in your case, voda UK, you find this rom
RUU_Leo_Vodafone_UK_1.43.405.1_Radio_Signed_15.26. 50.07U_2.04.50.22_2_Ship.exe
)
If you then need to get back to stock, and remove HSPL, you can do it with that rom. (not quite as simple as just flashing it, , see the HSPL thread for how to remove HSPL)

OH OK....i will have a look at the kitchen then....
Like I mentioned I am a noob lol....I got here just by trying to understand why couldnt I update my ROM.
One more question, each ROM completely cleans the before it, right? The features do not stuck up (add on)?

I would advise AGAINST blindly leeching any ROM from any online file sharer.
check this forum, read a bit, and select a ROM from a chef that has cooked something you like (speed, looks like stock, removed HTC, removed bloatware, etc etc). I've tried many, and almost all on this forum are excellent (some are more excellent than others though)..
Flashing a ROM completely cleans ALL settings on your phone, all data is gone, besides whatever is on your SD card.
same if you select Settings/Wipe Device option from the start menu.

Be aware that whilst flashing wipes all your old data/settings and such like, it doesn't necessarily wipe the old rom before flashing the new one, just flashes over it.
Roms can be different file sizes, (just compare a few RUU_Signed.nbh file sizes) so sometimes files can be left over from the previous rom. If you start getting random resets and freezes when you didnt before, it could be a sign of a bloated rom. Have a read of the mtty sticky. It looks a little overwhelming at first read, but dead simple really, and basically formats your rom before you flash the new rom.

my 2 pence here...
get the official WWE 1.66 ROM and see if that helps the phone, the 1.43 VF ROM is crap and both 1.48 and 1.66 are miles better so first thing is to give these a go. If, after successfully installing it, you wanna try something else then do so...
and read the n00b thread at the top of this forum...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477
it tells you what to do, with videos if needed...

Hi, I have the same vf handset and was sick of the crappy ROM, I upgraded yesterday after weeks of research and was surprised how easy it was.
However, having had a day to test out my new 1.66 ROM, I have unfortunately found some problems and part of me think maybe I should have waited a little longer for vf to release it officially.
I'm hoping you guys will be able to help again as it may just need different tweaks to the settings...
1. The first problem is that Opera is slightly different, the settings tab has changed, it no longer allows zooming (including pinch zooming) and the pages are not displayed as full width. I have played with all the setting I can in Opera and BsB Tweaks but no joy.
2. I can no longer access TV catchup through Skyfire. The advertisement plays as normal and then it says "non-UK, unauthorised". Is this because it is a WWE ROM and not a UK one? Why isn't there a specific UK ROM like there was for 1.48?
3. Although the alarm volume bug seems to have been fixed, the alarm popup doesn't come up any more when it goes off, making it very difficult to "snooze" or "dismiss".
4. Several error messages have come up relating to the actual phone app, messaging app and audiomanager. The phone has also crashed and gone slow a bit and overall the messaging app is a little more buggy despite it appearing to send all messages.
Any advice would be much appreciated as this does seem as though it could be a much better ROM with some great benefits.

1.48 was also a WWE ROM - there hasn't been a set UK one other than ISP-based ones

Fair enough. I was just going by what it was implying on the HTC support page. 1.48 specifically says UK whereas 1.66 simply says WWE and makes no mention of UK.
Does anyone have any advice on the issues I'm having?
Also, if I wanted to revert back to the vf 1.43 ROM using the SD card to remove HSPL, how do I know the file I've downloaded from the shared folders is exactly the same as I had before? I read that it is more risky flashing without HSPL as you have less chance of fixing it if something goes wrong, does this also go for the method of reverting back using the SD card as it is removing the HSPL?

O2UK rom over top of TMOBILE rom

hi ok so before you jump on me yes i did "UTFSE"
nothing quite seemed to fit and after trawling thro pages and pages of results i decided to bite the bullet enable flame shield and post a question.
is it possible to load an O2uk rom over the top of the tmobile rom
the tmobile rom is "1.72.110.4 (86525) WWE"
i'm on o2 and hate looking at all the crappy webnwalk rubbish and all the tmobile branding
I'm a total noob to HTC HD2 and Windows Mobile this is my very first device and have waitied some month to procure myself one lol
can someone help and let me know if it is possible and location to a factory rom for o2 or alternatives i'm open to suggestions
thanks... oh and HI community

sure. It wont go over teh top of it, but yes, it will replace it.
get hspl3 from my sig, run it, (with phone connected to usb) choose 2.08.hspl (NOT 2.08.0000, that's a stock spl)
get for example, the 1.66 wwe (world wide english)rom from the hd2 stock roms thread HERE (first post, first link, 1.66 folder)
run the .exe and it will flash over usb.
the phone will be like unused, so be sure and back up your data.

as long is it's not a tmobile usa phone- different memory config: bad for phone

it would already be a brick if it were a tmous, considering it is already running 1.72.110.4 (86525) WWE, , , hehehe
out of interest, why would you want to swap one provider branded rom for another? I'd go for the 1.66 wwe if i were you, , dont think that the 02 1.72 rom is updated, its teh same as 1.66, it just already has teh three or so updates applied, and it includes operator branding.

if you really want to flash the hd2 then i would suggest flashing one the roms from here. energy rom would be my choice..

thanks for the info guys
sorry been busy last few days
@samsamuel
Thanks for the info i'll try and do some more reading and try your method thx
and i wanna change the operator branding cuz i'm just picky lol its annoying clicking links on twitter and facebook and sms's etc and being taken to WEB 'n' WALK opera mobile browser even tho i've installed opera 10 for it :S its little annoying features that p me off lol with the o2 rom it would be as if its factory reset straight from o2 without me having to mess with too much stuff
i'm still a noob in such matters - don't wanna run before i can walk.
i've noticed the version i have installed ALREADY has some of the updates and tweaks included on the forums......
@Dumbquestion...... how would i tell if its a tmobile USA one? i'm pretty certain its not but i'd like to make sure.
i'm currently out of work and running on a shoestring budget and have saved up a long while now to buy this lol just dont wanna turn it into a £270 Brick lol

heh, well first, the web n walk stuff is down to t mo using a proxy, so you can forget that with o2.
in all honesty, go for the unbranded wwe 1.66 (in fact as of february o2 started shipping unbranded phones anyway, only some of the o2 customers can use that 1.7 o2 rom without needing hspl)
as for confirming its a u.k tmo phone, with the rom that's on it can't possibly be a tmous, they can only take roms v 2.x or better., however other ways to tell are
tmous has green send key red end key, 1024meg storage, and it says t mobile beneath the earpiece.

ahhh thats great news then.... i'm gonna go read up on the flashing and stuff before i even attempt anything
thanks for your help guys MANY thanks

oh one final thing..... can i back up the rom thats currently installed ? and re flash that back if and when i need to ?

well you can, but its not easy, and its pretty pointless. In the rom development section there is a thread called official roms or some such.(look in the 'list of stickies' sticky to find it)
In there, first post, first link, is a whole load of all the various official roms. All the wwe ones, most of the operator branded ones, most of the tmous ones (you can flash any rom, and any radio, , its only t mobile US (tmous) users that need to worry, so dont fret about that)

ok cool some sound advice thanks a lot
