kindly help me to debrand my T-MOBILE HD2

Hello everyone!
i have one t-mobile branded firmware htc hd2 which i bought it from and uk based ebay seller..its unlock..and i can recieve and make calls..
but im not able to use internet on the phone bcos it has settings for t-mobile network..
and i also tried to upgrade it through htc website but whenever im trying it says these updates are not for this serial number...
kindly help me in debranding my phone so that i can use this in australia with full functions..thanks a lot in advance..
trust me that would be a great help from you.

If this is a UK T-Mob HD, then its a contract phone and seems strange that it is up for sale so soon. Unless it has been stolen - I don't think we should help with stolen phones, unless you're willing to gvie me the IMEI number so I can check here with T-Mob.

Hi ABBABY,
i don´t understand your problem. Use either SPSL or HPSL (guarantee issues) and try the image you like.

Im not exactly sure if you want help making your internet work with your sim, or if you want help taking the tmobile rom off and putting a stock or custom one on..
If you just want help with internet settings then download the attached file and install on your phone. Then run the connection setup program in the start menu, connections screen and it should set up your internet and mms settings for the network you select (if its available).
If you want to put a custom rom on your device then follow my flashing a leo rom for noobs link in my signature to install HardSPL and then you can flash any of the roms in the rom development section to take off the tmobile branding and give you whatever you want.

What network are you trying to use it with?
I'm not too sure if you can change the connection settings easy on the T-Mobile ROM, I'd recommend flashing with the HTC unbranded ROM and then you can just select your service provider and it all works sweet.

I work for T-mobile and the only way you can change these settings is indeed to change to HTC unbranded ROM or any other ROM of your choice.

You must have flashed one of the TMobile Test Roms during your travels, which has that splash screen on it. Custom Roms dont include a splash screen so it wont be overwritten when flashing other roms afterwards.
Download the attachment and unzip to a folder on your pc. Sync using your usb cable and run the included customruu.exe file to flash back the original htc splash screen.

Cant download new ROM 1.72 from htc

Hello, i have a htc hd2 on tmobile, but the phone its self isnt marked as t-mobile anywhere on it.
I selected to mobile
htc.com/uk/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=297&cat=2&dl_id=936
and entered my S/N but it said my model isnt supported!
Why is this? will it do any harm to get the rom elsewhere and download it anyway? im guessing the S/N check is there to make sure that i dont download it for a reason.
Is there anywhere i can get the 1.72 rom for mmy phone? i am currenttly on 1.66 rom.
Thank You

i also have a HD2 without any branding visible, yet when i entered my s/n it went straight through...
however, the 1.72 rom i downloaded was a tmobile branded rom...perhaps the s/n are pre-registered to tmobile from the htc factory???

UK Vodafone
Here is the link for the Vodafone 1.77....

could i please have the serial number youve used so i can download? i dont see what the difference is between mine and a t-mobile bought one, the hardware and software is still the same.

go look in rom development section, leo official roms thread, first post first link, all the branded and unbranded stock roms.

sorry, i cant find the s/n in that post, there are hundreds of pages!
I want to be safe and download direct from theri website really.

I think he was trying to direct you here..........
You'll find the rom you need in here without having to use a s/n...
They're exactly what you'd get from the HTC site, for some reason the download from HTC keeps cutting out so I'm just getting it from here.
Hope that helps......

ok, thank you very much!
ive just downloaded the TMO UK 1.72 and tried flashing it, but i recieve an invalid vendor ID error message.
I recieve a text from t-mobile today, telling me that i can update my phone to this rom, so i dont see why it shouldnt be compatible!
Any way of forcing it to flash?
p.s i bought this phone online as a generic phone from mobilephonesdirect.co.uk.
I am on contract with t-mobile
any ideas?

what is the HTC_HD2_RUU_Leo_HKCSL_WWE_172 rom?
It over 395 people have downloaded it, is this a generic one? it seems to be a higher version to the tmobile one which i have been advised to update too.
Thanks

As far as I know wwe is the generic one, i cant give you an answer as to whether thats the one you need or not, if it wont let you flash the T-Mo rom then I'd guess you need the wwe, like I said I'm not sure though.....

ok, ill see how it goes. It is slightly annoying tho, does the t-mobile rom give you better reception? im just thinking that if i switch to a generic rom, then there wont be the specific t-mobile radio anymore. (if there is such a thing!)

I get the same error message... Invalid vendor ID!...
.............................................

Omg whats happened! My phone has got stuck on the htc screen!!

It didnt even flash anything it said! What can i do!!??

Sorry to hear that, i notice your other post saying a hard reset fixed it....
I guess your going to need to read through a lot of threads to find out which rom you need for your phone, the answer will be in here somewhere......... sorry i cant help you any more than that...

then you don't have a t mo branded phone, you have a generic phone network locked to t mo.
you need to use roms that say HTC WWE and not tmouk wwe

thanks, but i tried the WWE one and thats what seemed to have locked it up!
so, the t-mobile one came up with the error and so did the generic WWE one, expect the WWE one locked the phone up on startup.

what about this upgrade??

Hi,
there's a new upgrade for orange tattoos but i can't download it. Someone can test it and confirm what all people think??
htc.com/uk/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=292&cat=2&dl_id=948
Sorry my english

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=599711&page=17
Just for Orange branded mobiles...nothing new...

Mod. edit: not dev related, moved to general

Any Orange Tattoo users out there willing to share this ROM?

the link is
http://www.htc.com/uk/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=948&news_id=653

But we need the S\N from one of the Orange Branded Tattoo's. You can't download it otherwise.

Ok... just to show that there is no problem sending the s/n.
If yoy try HT99PLG01xxx with xxxx = 0-9 and play a little with
numbers you can find a lot of compinations where the result is
"Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device."
but the s/n is for tattoo. Just one from orange give as how the
pattern look like.
segway

I don't want someone's S\N but at least someone from the uk download it and put it on megaupload or rapidshare.

Maybe its difficult for someone to upload it to some server...
To give us a patttern is just 1 minute job...
seg

HT99PLG01xxx is only 999 phones... im sure there is more in uk

Sent from my HTC Tattoo

Just tested it.
1) Backed it up existing rooted 1.67.405.xx with Nandroid
2) Upgraded with ROM Upgrade for HTC Tattoo (Orange)
3) Applied UNLOCK code bought from Orange UK which worked fine with new ROM
4) Rolled back nandroid backup
I am happy now.
Did not notice anything new, again Google Apps was not there again. Now thinking about Paul's ROM.

Turn phone off, Hold the Vol Down button and turn on the phone. This will put it into bootloader mode with multicolour screen.
Plug the phone into windows and the serial should change to usb on the phone, then run the rom.
Good luck

Has anybody noticed any changes or can feature a changelog?

Anyone flashed this rom succesfully on german o2 HD7?
EDIT1: flashed this rom on my hd7 and it works fine until now.

Is there a way to flash this with a mac???

Download a free trial of windows and use bootcamp or a free trial of VMware.

FYI
Phone info after Update:
OS 7.0.7004.0
Firmware: 2250.09.16101.207
Radio: 5.52.09.16_22.33a.50.10U
Bootloader: 1.61.2250.0(114451)
Updated fine, no issues so far but only updated 20 minutes ago

Wasn´t it meant to be pubished via Zune or online-update???
I thought windows phones should update itself with new updates.
I´m not sure if I shouldn´t better wait for an update via the official way.
It´s not that I flashed my HD2 hundred times without problems but I´m thinking if it wouldn´t be easier to update the "normal" way. Does anyone know whether the normal update style would backup settings and mails so that you don´t have to recreate everything on your own???

Thx for the quick answer. So is the firmware and the radio never updated by the push updates from MS???
What yould then be the normal way for the firmware-updates?
Htc Website??? there is no HD7 at the moment!
Please explain if you got further informations.

Updated to german O2 version. No problem so far. Seems to be a bit snappier. Graphics seem a little faster, also the phone boot. Reception shows up stronger. I found it interestant to see that the the intelligent phone app from HTC doesn´t reset anymore after reboot Thx for making me update the firmware !!!

they CAN update the radio/spl by air but I think that will come from your operator .
so HTC makes an update and sent it to your operator , the operator is signing the update (vendor ID) and then or sent it to MS (I think for releasing it over Zune) or release it on the operator website/by air

My phone was and is a O2 branded but Sim-Free HD7.
But the german O2 branding is just a color-design and an extra navigation software which is not usable yet.

Hi Ansar,
Are you able to say if this ROM contains the "Orange Maps Navigation" application installed ?
My original ROM (as supplied by Orange) has an update available for it but I am unable to download it because I have a USA Windows Live ID.

Hi,
Can you specify the firmware version etc of the phone about info?
Regards, ansar.

Hello Ansar,
Thanks for your hard work on the Mozart.
Just to let you know my orange uk mozart runs a
1.24.2250.35 bootloader
2250.09.12345.061 Firmware
5.50.09.18_22.24.5050.09U Radio
A friend of mine got his phone about a month after I got mine and he is running a 1.25 bootloader. If you could find anything above those or at least 1.25 we will love you even more. Orange UK points at HTC for the updates at this point based on their web site info

can you please post how to flash this rom?
im on a stock htc 7 mozart.. thanks!
newbie here =)

Make sure all your content is synced.
Make sure your battery is above 50%
shut down the phone and switch it on while pressing the volume down and camera buttons. This will show you a three-color screen. Do not panic, this is the bootloader.
While in bootloader mode connect your phone to your PC via USB.
Start the executable provided and go through the wizard.
When this is done you will get a congratulations screen on your PC and your phone will reboot.
Unplug the phone and just configure it.
Make sure that you are upgrading to a newer version before you flash it.

ROM Version?
Hi ansar
My HTC 7 Mozart from Orange seems to be firmware 2250.09.12435.061 which would appear newer than the one in post#1 of this thread. Is there any way we can verify that and rip the ROM for other users?
Cheers
