First of all the correct unlock utility can be found on this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33796
The next most important thing is to know how to do a hard reset, you hold the "Communication Manager" and "Voice Speed Dial" buttons while pressing in the soft reset button(that is the small button next to the IR port), make sure to keep holding the two buttons after you press the soft reset. Then a screen will apear to have you hit the green call button to make sure you want to reset. This will format your user info and make you peform the startup tests again.
If you want to load an english rom, I suggest the Qtek one since it is very easy and all the software runs on the computer instead of needing to load files on to a SD card or the wizard. The whole application can be found here:
http://www.beyondthetech.com/blogs/kjam/
The link to the file is at the bottom of the page in the last blog. You will need to have Active Sync 4.1 for this phone and it will have to be working for this application to work.
Have fun everyone and I think this forum is great.

tx in advance.
All,
I've exchanged many emails with the imei.check.co.uk team and also met personally one of these guys in order to be able to upload a new ROM to my O2 Orbit. I had excatly the same problem as many of you with ending the uploding process with "model invalid id" error message.
Now I'm happy to say we do have a solution.
So if you want to change your ROM (any), simply follow these instructions:
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Of course you can publish the instructions...
BUT PLEASE put a BIG WARNING! It will crash the phone in case you don't have a valid key file to perfom the last step: RUN THE UNLOCKER AGAIN AFTER THE ROM MODEL SWITCH TO RECOVER FROM THE DATA CRASHED MESSAGE!
Hello,
we found a way to flash ANY artemis roms in ANY Artemis look alike device (HTC Hero too).
Tools you need:
-hexworkshop from http://www.bpsoft.com/downloads/
-Any rom
-winzip or winrar
-http://www.imei-check.co.uk/C3v1Unlock.zip
a valid UNL file for your phone.
install hexworkshop and winzip/winrar
Take any rom for example: ART_HTCWWE_11240501_026790_WWE_Ship.exe
in explorer, right click on it and select "Extract files..."
Now it will unpack all the files
You'll have now "HTCWWE_shipsigned.nbh"
right click on it and Click "Hex Edit with Hex Workshop"
You'll see on the 5th row ARTE10000
Make it ARTE***** and save file
Now right click on ROMUpdateUtility.exe and "Hex Edit with Hex Workshop"
Search for word password.it will find it at 0x3E0B0 after password replace "BsaD5SeoA" with "IMEICHECK" and save the .exe file
Now connect the phone to the pc (normal way). run the C3v1Unlock.exe
when is asking for UNL file, disconect the phone from pc, press cancel, and
close the unlocker.
Now connect the phone back to the pc (in this mode it is) and run the
ROMUpdateUtility.exe
Now follow the instructions as the upgrade it will work.
After upgrade done, run the unlocker again and this time select the correct UNLfile.
Task Done.
C3 after flashing with any WIFI roms it will STILL not have WIFI!!!
Regards,
IMEI-CHECK Team

Cheers, Martin
YESS, I have changed my GER rom to new HTC official ENG Rom, you are the best!!!!!! It's very simple to do...
yuppyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
the next step is.... backup the ROM I'm search ITA ROM form my HTC 3300.
see you later...
Good Discovery,
But the key is: We will have to pay 38USD for the "Proper UNL file" which is unique for every IMEI. Is it right?
Yeah, Thanks mr. Martin who is from Imei-Check Team. But we are still looking for a free solution.
Regards!
Tamagochi,
yes, first you have to go to imei.check and pay for the unlocking program and the unique .unl file.
P.S. I'm not a member of imei.check, just had the same problem as many Orbit users here...you can find my previous thread.
Works great on all versions.
Great support from the boys from emeicheck
Question about directions
Okay, I'm gonna try this. Do I still follow these directions exactly even though I have already unlocked the CID?
Also, when you see the line "ARTE1000" do you actually replace the "1000" part with the little stars? Sorry, I'm really new at this!
Thanks!
Yes you must do it all.
HELP
Everything went smoothly but when the device rebooted, it want me to "align the screen". It doesn't seem to be able to detect the stylus touching the screen! Can't get past that screen! Anybody know what I could have done wrong?
REF: HELP (Never Mind...)
I DID IT, I DID IT, I DID IT!!!! Just had to wait a minute or two and then everything seemed to work fine!!! TomTom is there, my WiFi is working! Thank you MAROSV and FRANCOBANCO!!!! If I can do it, ANYBODY can!! THANK YOU!!!
Hi KleineMaus,
I am wondering which ROM u used on your orbit that includes tomtom?
Or do you just mean you still had tomtom stored on your menory card?
Cheers, Towelie.

hi, I've just used the last HTC offical Rom (see xda ftp site..) that include TomTOm + 1 city map
byebye
Hi, I used the ROM on the Wiki page Dopod|English|DOPOD001|ARTE1****|1.25.707.2 ??/??/0?|1.25.707.104|1.25.0000|02.69.90|4.1.13.30| [Download|ftp://xda:[email protected]/Artemis/Shipped_Complete_Updates/ARTE_DOPODAU_12570702_026990_WWE_SHIP.exe]|[Thread|http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=286639]
It worked like a charm. The only problem I had was that when the Orbit re-booted after the process finished, it didn't seem to detect the sylus. I just waited five minutes and then it worked. Guess it was still getting settled in with it's new ROM. I don't know where I had the TomTom before I started the update, but it installed the German maps which were there before but as a bonus it gave me a English speaking voice which I didn't have before. It came with a German voice and I couldn't change because I had not yet upgraded the memory and had no room. So, my update was super! The only little thing is that once I changed the screen color back to blue instead of that terrible green, I couldn't get the phone part (dialing pad) to change to blue. No biggie, as now I can use my Orbit in English. I can live with the green phone pad! Maybe somebody will tweak that one. Hope this wasn't more info than you needed....
KleinMouse,
the dialing pad can be easily changed as well....just do a little seach on this Artemis forum and you will find many links pointing to skins available for WM5 phone edition.
O2 Orbit ROM upgrade info
Hi,
my o2 orbit has ROM 1.25.206.2 WWE. I wanted to know if this is the latest ROM available for my phone. I got my phone 10 days ago and i gotta do a soft reset on it every day. I had the same kind of problems with o2 Atom. But most of the issues were corrected once the ROM was upgraded. Please someone update me on my situation. Thanks
I tried the steps but i'm always getting the ERROR[300] : INVALID UPDATE TOOL - This Update Utility cannot be used for your PDA Phone. Please get newer Update Utility
Anyone who can help me here? I already tried different ROMs but always the same message
Did you unlock with imei-check? What is your model ID ARTExxxx ?
Yes i did. My Model ID is ARTE100
Hmm, but the steps described above are necessary to follow only if your model is Orbit (ARTE200). If you have HTC P3300 or Dopod p800W or Artemis or MDA compact 3, then you don't need to do it this way. The only thing you need to do is to unlock with Imei-check. If it still doesnt work, contact their help desk.
Ok i see, very strange indeed. I did the unlock with the stuff from Imei-check but i still get the message ERROR [244] : INVALID MODEL ID . If i try the steps from your post #1 , i get the described error obove. I'll try to contact the guys from imei-check, i hope they can help me
Hi Kleine Maus, I read with great joy that you succeeded and I would like to feel the same way.... Could you kindly reply to me and give me some detailed instructions to follow? Hopefully this will work for my HTC P3300....Thanks in advance.... I really appreciate it. Best SiperX
Hi to everybody.
I would want to set you a very strange problem that has happened to one friend of mine. He has installed the original ROM wm5 and he wants to pass to wm6, once connected the pda to the computer activesync unfortunately it tries to syncronize him but remains to syncronize to the endless (1° strangeness) one.
Later starting the official updating htc downloaded by the site, continuing with the instructions and reaching the prophetic moment in which the pda is disconnected by activesync and puts on in formality bootloader to adjourn from the prophetic error 260 that I have documented and I bring here you him:
Me being a little hacker and almost all knowing the methods to upgrade the ROM I have recommended him to try to put in formality bootloader to extract the content of the original file and to make to depart the file ROMUpdateUtility, but also them error 260. Not giving me for defeated I have tried the last method from me known, the updating from micro sd card.I have dictated him footstep footstep what had to do but not even this time of it to wanted to know to adjourn him (2° strangeness, doesn't know however if has correctly done all finding himself him in the Marche and me in Sicily ). I think that can treat more specifically him of the pc of the operating system, even if he has told me that it has the xp.
Now I put me in your hands, aspect suggestions on as to resolve.
I thank you in advance
And excuse me for mine bad bad..... English
To get your P3300 back to live
Don't worry if things goes wrong sometimes.
1.What you can do is maybe a good option if you have a P3300 without a
provider then you can better going
to the website of Htc register yourself (its free!) Then register
your model of your Htc Product.
Go to the Htc club. you will find your originale udate rom!!! This is also
to find it here.
2. There is a nother option.
copy your RUU_singned img to a sd card and put the sd card bac to
your P3300.
Start the bootloader by pressing the both key rec. and power
and hold em when your do a reset.
You will see a 3 color line on your screen then you will see
the install progres from your img.
wait and follow the instruction on that display.
I had also a problem a month ago but and this option by the sd card
did working fine for me.
Now I update the software and also the dial pad to vista look. That is
realy awesome!
It's working fine and do its job what this model has to do!
Succes and good luck!
PLEASE I need help! I have an htc p3300 and when I try to update it goes up to 3% and turns off. There isn't any rom that I haven't tried but noone worked . Is there anything I can do ? Thanks in advance
...
takes sd card out..
you done uspl.. if not.. click it in my signature..
Hi everybody,
I Have a big problem with my new Jade. I have upgraded form the oficial site (htc.com) with this program : _HTC Touch 3G_MR2009_RUU_Jade_HTC_Europe_2.32.401.2_Radio_Sign_12.41.30.16_0.41.30.12_Ship without error... but after reboot, the phone is always "off" and curiously it does not ask the pin code of my sim card (proximus - belgian provider).
A help will be much apreciated and my apologies for my bad english.
Switch on your service by pressing the icon next to the batteryicon on top. Or use the commmanager and enable your telephone. Wait a few seconds and you will be asked for your pin.
I've try this several times but does not work. Thanks for your reply.
Solved !!!! I have installed stockSPL and all OK. Thanks for help.
Hi,
I just bought a second hand Ipaq 612c from Hong Kong. I want to change the chinese rom to english.
I tried the win 6.5 and sergie's 6.1 rom but they don't work. I load the FLASH.DIO into a 2gb sd card (newly formatted into Fat16). I held record + mute while pushing the on button. It displays the OS (1.00.04) and radio (0.81) with the message "clean boot" at the top. Afterwards it just loads into the original chinese WM6.
I also tried updating the OS and radio but it won't allow me saying the language is different (CHT OS vs WWE OS) and the sku is different (for the radio).
I tried searching for help but can't find any in the search.
Can anyone tell me step by step instructions? I can't read chinese so it makes this even more difficult
Thank you.
ps. I have a 3g sim card that I tried putting in but it doesn't work. other normal sims work right away. any ideas?
solved it.
From the H91X brick and change any language into english thread i found the existence of the "romupdate.dll"
which lead to further readings and *bam* im done. its in english. yay
but still wondering why the record+mute didn't flash and why my 3g sim card doesnt work...
fix.
found out that my mute button wasn't pushed. I guess buying 2nd hand does have its cons. but after using the stylus to push it the SDLoader came up and everything is fine. the new rom reads the sim card as well.
