Dear All,
Is it possible to unlock the SIM on universal
Is tit possible to change the language on the phone from french to English
Can you please guide me on how to do the above as I dont speak french
Is it possible to save the current settings on the phone if the above fails
as the operator sayzs that the warrantz on the phone is void if the language is changed or the SIM is unlocked
My current configuration
operatpor 7.113.5.132
Rom version 1.13.51 FRE
Rom Date 22-09-2005
Radio 1.03.00
Protocol Version 42.36.P8
Ext rom 1.13.132 FRE
I can help you change language from french to english.
Doesn't your Universal have a place where you can download the french ROM? If not, it is still possible to backup the french ROM. A little complicated, but i'm sure i can walk you thru the process.
Regarding the unlocking, i don't think it is possible at the moments. The geniuses are working on it but as of now, you can have it unlocked thru your provider. Just pay the fee (which i think is around 20-30€)
Dear Jorgee,
I would appreciatte if you can walk me htrough the language change, I have tried the provider which is orange switherland, that the lock is definite
A Bellah
First step is to tell me which ROM you would like? O2, Qtek, Imate or T-Mobile?
and i assume you would like it in english?
Just tell me what ROM you need and i will walk you thru it
Dear Jorge
My current configuration
operatpor 7.113.5.132

Rom Date 22-09-2005
Radio 1.03.00
Protocol Version 42.36.P8
Ext rom 1.13.132 FRE
and I want to change into english
Which of the following ROM's would you like?
O2
QTEK
IMATE
Take note, flashing the ROM/Changing the language doesnt get rid of the SIM Lock
Dear Jorge,
Which ever you think is best out of all the three you have listed.
ANother question if I may, Would this affect the phone configurations by orange
Thanks

I guess if you want the fastest or newest? The fastest in MY opinion is the QTEK because it has few customizations. The newest I believe is O2 ROM
Regarding Phone configurations of Orange, the configurations are set thru a .CAB file which is stored in Extended ROM. All you have to do before changing ROM is to backup the extended ROM, then Flash the device to english, then run the CAB file that has the Orange customizations.
If you can give me a list of the files in your Extended ROM, i'll do my best to explain what each file does
Dear Jorge,
I guess I will use the same as youy which I thinkl would be the qtek.
Ok where do i get the programme to back upo the extended rom
Thanks
Backing up extended rom, have to install Total Commander. Then in total commander, type \EXTENDED_ROM which will show you the contents of the extended ROM. Just copy to the SD card and save in your computer, that's how you backup extended ROM
For backing up the OS ROM, refer to this thread as it was BUZZ that helped me find out what to do.
Its : http://www.buzzdev.net/index.php?op...=view&id=8573&catid=33&limit=15&limitstart=15
Just download the file at the bottom of this page (page 2) then continue on to page 3 and 4 which explains how to do it. Just PM me regarding where you are already and I will walk you thru the rest as I have already done the procedure
Hello Jorgee,
I got to this stage and created the file on the desktop but I tried to run the command in dos but I got an error message
Where can I download the qtek rom from
Thanks

What command did you enter that caused you to get an error message?
go here ftp://xda:xdaftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/Universal/Shipped ROMs and download UNI_Qtek_WWE_11364_151_10300_Ship.exe for the English ROM.
are you sure you don't want to backup your ROM first?
Just drop me a message if you get lost.
dos command
i want to back it up first but I am getting the folowing error on the dos command
Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]

'pdocread' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
Did you install EnableRapi on the PPC first before doing this?
THen you have to disable the USB connect option of ActiveSync,
Then enter Bootloader mode on yor universal,
then connect it to the computer,
then run the pdocread
is this what you did?
no I followed the articel your refered me to, I ran the enable rapi, then connected to the usb and then ran the programme.
I also tryed to download the qtek system but the link you gave me does not let me acess the site
you have to put xda:xda in the link as this is the username and password. Or use an ftp program to access the site, this might be easier
I put it in the bootloader state and still the same message
I put it in the bootloader state and still the same message, but the message on the article you refered me toi says not to do so, I have tried both methods and cantr seem to be able to get it done
Sorry, but i don't know what to say. Are you using the original cable?

Hi all.
I have been reading in the forum for hours and hours, without beeing able to find an easy way (that I understand) on how to upgrade.
I am an old (retired) man, and not stupid (I hope) but have a slight consentration problem.
I want to upgrade from WM5.0 to Windows Mobile 6.1
(+Opera Mini, support for 8GB SDHC and TomTom 7)
I have: a HTC P3300 ARTE100
IPL 1.12.0001
SPL 1.12.0000
GSM 02.67.90
OS 1.12.0.0
ROM version: 1.12.405.1 WWE
ROM date: 9/12/06
Radio version: 02.67.90
Protocol version: 4.1.13.28
ExtROM version: 1.12.405.101
The device is not locked (I belive) because I can use any SIM I want in the phone.
I have tried to flash to SPL 1.11.cmon, but ended up with SPL 1.11.0000
So I downloaded and installed HTC_1.12.405.01_026790_WWE_SHIP This put my phone back to original, (SPL 1.12.0000)
Synced and copied enablerapi.cab and Cert_SPCS.cab Disconnected, and ran both of them.
I tried to run start_uspl.exe, but it will only try to update from current rom ver. 1.12.405.1 to ver.9.99
And after a while I get a message on my P3300:
Unable to open log file....
tiny_console_init done
And ROM ver. is back to SPL 1.12.0000
Suggestions anyone?
ok pm me and i will walk you though.
first update to the newest version of active sync thought.
next make sure your device is fully charged.
next back up all data from your device. flashing a new rom will erase all data.
next cid unlock read the first post and download the attachments
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=308242
after you have done this pm me.
as for opera just download one of the many prepacked opera cabs. here is a link to one that should work. http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=281464&d=1266292843
to my limited knowledge of sdhc support and the p3300 all of the cooked roms have sdhc support cooked in. so when you get a newer rom on your phone sdhc should work.
Arggggh
I can use any SIM in my phone. Is CID unlock really neccesary?
I downloaded pof's Artemis_USPL and ran it, but it seems nothing was changed.
I too wants to change the ROM ver. from 1.12.405.1 to ver. 9.99
And the link to: HTC P3300 WWE factory rom - is dead.
But I found HTC_1.12.405.01_026790_WWE_SHIP another place.
I have also found and downloaded AndreW82_WM6.1_21056_Lite_v1.4_WWE.nbh
But am afraid to try to install it since my ROM is not ver. 1.11.cmon.
Here is what I have tried so far:
Downloaded Artemis_USPL
Synced and copied enablerapi.cab and Cert_SPCS.cab
Disconnected, and ran both of them.
Booted and Synced.
Started start_uspl
(wich opened a dos window)
After 10....20.... and so on, phone softbooted.
Message on phone:

SPL is still the same (SPL 1.12.0000)

Trying again:

Did not boot or disconnect, but started start_uspl.exe
10...20... and so on

No reaction on phone, Hard reset.

ok, now for my question..
my spl is 1.11.cmon so cid is already done and has been for a year, i have flashed several roms so i am not a noob at flashing..
the connection from my pc to artemis dsconnected during flash and now in bootloader.. it wont flash from sd..
i know how to use the mtty commands coz iv used it before, but cant remember how to get it to select USB from the 'port' menu..
*how do you get it to select usb?
i know how to use mtty but cant remember
Ai... I'm sorry man, I've never flashed an Artemis before and I don't have the tools to do it either. Maybe you should ask in #xda-dev on IRC?
...
I.m doing something wrong, but don't know what.
Phone on - connecting USB - phone syncs.
Start start_uspl.exe - at 100% screen goes white.

Hi
Tought I should not try to install the .nbh file if USPL was not 1.11.cmon.
Btw:
One of the first steps is to take out the SD-card. Is that what I am doing wrong?
(Should I copy the AndreW82xxxx.nbh to my SD, and have it installed when I run the uspl/RUU?)
...
this is 1.11.cmon.. just try it..
...
take out sd card..
dont flash andrews rom..
do uspl with the one ive just uploaded on this thread..

This is obviously where I miss something.
the RUU_signed is a .nbh file.
So how do I start it?
Should I use activesync and put it on the phone and some how start it from there?
Or should I put it in the same folder as the uspl cmon, and then run the uspl?
Or is there another trick that I have missed?
put it in the uspl folder and overwrite the one inside..
then do uspl..

I also tried renaming the ruu_signed to arteimg.nbh
Seems my phone has some kind of lock on the SPL 1.12.0000.
Can it be write-protected in some way?
And if so, how can I "unlock" the write protection?

Cert_SPCS.cab and enablerapi.cab without disconnecting nor syncing the phone.
Then start_uspl.exe, and on white screen I just started (or rather continued with) the RUU.
WOOHOO - on 3. attempt my SPL changed to 1.11.cmon
So, if you read this post, and have the same problem as I had, here is how to do it:
Download attached file, unzip it, and read the install.txt

1.1.cmon is 1.11.cmon

ERROR [294] : INVALID VENDER ID
One of these error messages will appear when you use the wrong RUU to do the upgrade. RUU will check if the Model ID and Language ID are compatible with the device. Make sure you use the appropriate RUU tool to upgrade.
This is the config of my phone:
Flash: 512mb
OS version: 5.2.23103
Manila version: 2.5.20131825.4
ROM version: 1.36.721.3 (94538) WWE
Also, forgot to mention getting error 294 while flashing the phone
I got a Venue Pro yesterday. I purchased it on eBay. Hooked it up to perform updates and I couldn't. I constantly get error code 80070002
I have tried it now on two PCs on two different networks, one running Win 7 and the other running Win 8. I have looked on the net but can't really find anything helpful.
Anyway, never having had the phone before I found it odd that it came with a call and message history. Even after I reset the phone it still has a history, pictures of people from Facebook with pictures that are obviously professional shots. All messages are from people each other how great their new Windows phone is.
Also, if I don't use the phone for a couple of minutes it starts a phone demo video/slide show. I am now thinking I have a demo OS even though I can make calls and surf the net. Current OS is 7.0.7004.0
What can I do to totally wipe this phone and start from blank?
Thanks
You'll probably have to follow the instructions in "How to unbrick a Dell Venue Pro." No way to change a demo ROM into a retail ROM. You need to flash the retail ROM and start over.
If you still have the original rom installed on it, could you:
run the emapp tool and write down the contents of what it has?
As far as dell is concerned, I dont believe they normally make demo specific roms.
But that is in reference to their android devices and MS might have had them make an exception for the VP (and it's WP7)
TheManii has a thread over here where he's collecting this data.

Thanks to all who replied. I got it fixed. It was indeed some weird demo ROM or setting but its all cleared up now. I used the unbricking thread listed here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1411300
and downloaded the ROM from here
https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=4da87ed18e0bf92d&resid=4DA87ED18E0BF92D!7216&id=4DA87ED18E0BF92D!7216
I got the UpdateWP too from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1262471
Only thing to note is to extract the UpdateWP folder and put both files in to the Zune directory on your PC.
After that everything went relatively smoothly. It took 2 or 3 tries to get the Retail ROM to take and from there the phone updated perfectly until Mango. It failed but I just disconnected USB and reconnected and it ran the update.
Thanks again
Same boat

Hi, I just got a phone in the same conditions you have had mention(demo mode), and I thought I have done and taken the same steps to flash my device, but with not avail, the skydrive file has been removed, and I was wondering if you maybe still have them(the files) somewhere and if I could "borrow" them. I mean I think I have the right ROM and the UpgardeWp, but maybe they are the wrong ones, because is NOT working for me.
Thank you very much and I hope you have a fantastic evening.

*UPDATE* never mind, I was able to do a proper flash, and now I have a good working Windows Phone...

Hi
I am trying to do the same thing. But when I click the sky drive link to download the rom , there is nothing there. It asks me to login to windows live and thats it. Do you still have this rom downloaded and can you email it to me? OR where can I find this rom? Plz help.
In the middle of the "how to unbrick your dell venue pro" the rom is posted, on some russian download site.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22415484&postcount=35
That file is hosted on my skydrive, and it is still available. It may be asking you to log in to your windows live account to access it. Not sure.
I got it ! Thank you so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

First thing I'd do is do a soft reset if you just flashed the stock 7004 ROM.
Windows Phone > Settings > About > Reset your phone.
Then, just a guess -- go into Zune Desktop > Settings > Phone > Sync Options > [Forget this phone]
Then plug the phone again and see if it lets you set it up as a new device, with update check.
If this doesn't work, the next thing I'd try is moving to another Windows machine, installing a fresh copy of Zune Desktop, and seeing if it will let you update using that. You could also use a Windows installation in virtualization using virtualbox, or an installation on another partition if you are an advanced user.
Basic troubleshooting. Just floating ideas.
Nothing worked

If you've also tried doing the soft reset as I mentioned, you may want to see if you can use the cab sender method to update to one of the nodo builds.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1306415
A couple quick questions --
Was this your phone and had it been working previously, or was it in this "connect to PC screen" state when you got it?
Can you think of anything you might have done to cause it to stop working?
Is it the AT&T, T-Mobile, or EU/International version?
Did you use a non-english language cab?

1. yes, i tried a soft reset(resetting the phone from settings->about phone->reset phone) even also perform a soft reset without SD card and try to update from zune without SD card but still getting same restoration error.
i already tried all options cab sender, mangoforall 0.2 etc/ update and restore from command promt:
getting below error everytime whenever i tried to perform any thing from command promt(.bat) :
Error: Exception from HRESULT: 0x801812C0
Call stack:
at wm7update.Program.UpdateDevice(IDeviceInfo deviceInfo, List`1 updates, Upd
ateType type)
at wm7update.Program.Main(String[] args)
2. this is not my phone i got it in a non working state showing "SD card not working".. then i performed steps mentioned in "how to unbrick DVP". after that i got a working DVP.
3. It is a T-mobile DVP and sim unlock by unlock code provided by dell.
4. It is on 7004 Tmobile ffu no cab update til now, as i am not able to send any cab via cab sender.
Note: i don't have any previous back-up of this mobile and not sure wheather the SD card is original or not.
