why can't you read the post before you flash the device, it won't work, and you risk yourself of brinking your device. Solutions is on the forum, use the search....

hello sir, I look with "Athena goes wiki ", but not info for that, could you help me to find or tell me how we can do? thanks.

Remove the miniSD card! I had the same problem

now I get CID back, but how to change the CID to Super CID? If not, the rom doesn't be upgraded.

RUU_Athena_HTC_WWE_1.25.405.2_1.38.00
I tried to update my dutch T-Mobile Ameo with the rom RUU_Athena_HTC_WWE_1.25.405.2_1.38.00 and got at first the connection problem on the device, and after I removed the SD Card the same error 294: Invalid Vendor ID.

this problem is HTC 7500's CID not super CID, so if want to upgrade, we must have the tools to unblock the CID.

and if you have read though the forum, then you know there is no tools to make your device super CID, there is no tool to unblock it. you must return to original ROM.

wu5262 is correct. There is currently no way of making the Athena superCID. No one, to our knowledge, has posted the utility yet. Careful guys with trying to upgrade. You might brick your phone and have an expensive paper weight if you're not careful. Not all files/posts are from reliable sources, etc. Not saying the poster is not reliable but sometimes there is not enough information for everyone's use.

Have you tried olipro cid unlock? Since I unlocked my Athena with this software I haven´t had any trouble when instaling roms that showed "unvalid vendor id" before each time tried of upgading wm6 from developer's to the wm6 recently offered from HTC Asia.

CID Unlocking

I know there is no free utility yet to CID unlock the G4 devices. Those of you that have unlocked your G4's at the IMEI-Check site http://www.imei-check.co.uk/m3000unlock.php Is this just a SIM unlock or also a CID unlock?
If it is a CID unlock are you now able to make a ROM backup using the R2SD method shown in post 8 of this thread? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=258819&highlight=r2sd+backup
This is my main reason for wanting to CID unlock. I want to be able to make a full ROM backup with this method, before trying any new ROMs. My CID locked 9100 gives me this error "You didn't get the proper security level to download a specific image" when I try a R2SD backup

Go ahead and you will be able to do r2sd backups and restore after CID unlock at imei-check.co.uk.

So does this CID unlock the phone if it's a G4, you're a bit unclear?
IMEI check is SIM and CID unlocking. If you are gonna do it, see my post here.
yes... using the method availble at imei-check.co.uk will very much CID-unlock your device
NOTE: There's been a lot of posts regarding this subject but the fact of the matter is that you do in fact get your phone CID-unlocked at this website despite what you may have read in other threads...
What are the security or other implications of handing over my IMEI to them? Is that safe?

No worse than handing over your credit card info to them.
IMEI Check is a reputable company, and doing what they do, it is in their best interest to safeguard your information. Also, I've never seen any complaints against them that weren't about how much they charged for their service.
They DO intimate that they can re-lock your phone remotely if you back out on payment, but if you deal in good faith, I don't ever see that as a problem.
Of course, YMMV, but probably not.
How many..?
Hi,
I've heard that my device will be CID locked again after applying one of the ROMs. Does this mean I have to CID unlock my device again??
Just to be sure I can restore my backup ;-)
I've already paid for the CID unlocking, but it seems that the extended rom specifically NEVER installs. This, to me, seems like its not unlocked if that isn't working, or at least not fully unlocked. I've run the unlocking tool (from imei-check) 3 times now, I believe, and installed many different ROMs.
How can you CHECK if the unlock worked on a G4?
moonrock You may check CID having started Prophet in mode bootloader and having started mtty142 and take command info 2 - You see your CID.
imei-check does not do unlocking ExtROM this absolutely area miscellaneous.

Invalid Vendor ID.

Flashed WMXL 0.20 yesterday. All fine. I stupidly installed a WM2003 program that seems to have edited the graphics driver. Now the thing wont boot past the HTC splash screen. I've tried flashing, same rom, different t-mobile roms etc. No luck, always same error.
What gives?
Installing a program does not usually brick a device.
And if your graphics driver has been modified,I suggest you do a hard reset on your device.
If that is not helping,please provide your SPL and Radio version,also Cid status and so on ,see who can help you here.

Sounds like you're flashing & writing before reading. I'm guessing you went straight to the WM6 rom and didn't do any of the SIM or CID unlocking. Read the following threads and you should discover what you need and probably loads more too...

Congrats and have fun flashing - it's addictive.
I'd suggest that you read and try Olipro's Hard-SPL before you go any further. This appears to be the answer to many of our prayers because you should be able to recover a bad radio flash. (I'm guessing that the 1.04 version will become most popular)

Pre Upgrade Queries.

I'm going to attempt to update my Ameo very very soon (I'm scared, but I think I can make it), and have the following queries:-
Q) What is actually needed to perform the upgrade (software/hardware)?
A) A SuperCID Ameo/Athena/U1000, USB Cable, Upgrade ROM, ....
Q) On Upgrading, is the device wiped completly (Microdrive included)?
Q) Am I correct in thinking that I need to get the SuperCID unlock from the imei-checkers site? What is their turn around time?
Q) Are there any 'roll-back' instructions in case of disaster?
Q) Will there be less risk associated with the T-Mobile Upgrade (if it ever appears)?
Q) Are WM5 theme's compatible with WM6?
Q) Is there any WM5 software known to be incompatible with WM6?
Q) Is any software that is included in the WM5 image NOT there in WM6?
Q) Is there any adverse effect from using the generic image rather than the T-Mobile custom one?
Apologies for some 'newbie' questions, but I just wanted some clarification to committing to the upgrade, what with the risk of bricking the device.

1) If you have a stock standard UK T-Mobile Ameo, then download ATHE_T-MOB005.rar from http://uploaded.de/?id=wbbw2u
If you have something else, then refer to post #4 here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=314672
2) make sure you have 50%+ battery life, and an established activesync connection via USB
3) extact the RAR, run the EXE, be paitent and cross fingers

Some people rather a generic (or vanilla) ROM. I suspect the only diffecterence between ATHE_T-MOB005.rar and the offical T-Mobile ROM will be the branding (includion of a T-Mobile theme)

I think the only diff is the T-Mob one is for T-Mob CID devices so you don't need CID unlocking.
Pocket informant is incompatible with WM6 - they want you to upgrade
My T-Mob (UK) upgraded SIM and CID locked without a hitch.

Pre-upgrade queries
Hi.
I have more or less the same questions.
I have an HTC X7500 unbranded, bought from Dangaard Italy.
I read carefully the main topic, and someone said that he flashed his device
with the ATHE_WM6_x7500_flasher.rar file, without CID-unlocking it.
Is this correct?
If so, can someone tell me in which order I have to run the four exe files
included?
Thanks in advance
Mauro
I prefer it anyway...none of the pointless operator branding (and I always hated the T-M phone skin) and I don't feel there is anything missing or lacking.
Many thanks for absolutly top notch replys, particularly Spoonter!
I shall be 'violating' my device later tonight (probably).
I'll probably backup my Microdrive before operation and clear it down anyway.
One other one:-
Q) Can someone point me to instructions on how to 'backup' the current WM5 rom? I'd like to keep hold of a copy of this incase of incident!
Hope someone can also help Pumats!

I believe X7500s are CID unlocked - although someone says the dutch one is CID locked (although his sig says Ameo not X7500?) if it is CID unlocked you just need to run the ROMUpgradeUtility - and wait! it runs everything else for you and just works (or did on my UK Ameo)
Good luck.
Hi
I have a French X7500, it was SIM-unlocked but it was CID locked, so I had to buy the unlock at IMEI check before I could use the upgrade. However I didn't try the T-mobile upgrade, only the HTC001 or something.

Thanks Confucious!
Now I have to understand if my X7500 is CID-unlocked.

AMEO can get stuck with this upgrade
I've got a T-Mobile Ameo. UK rom. Never touched SIm or CID lock.
Ran the exe program as per earler post, but for no obvious reason, Activesync lost connection at 0% and updating stopped.
The Ameo is now stuck in bootloader mode, with a white screen saying "Loading...."
I've tried getting out of bootloader (hard reset, down volume, plus reset) and it just keeps coming back to the "Loading..." screen.
A word of caution then for all of you out there... and a plea for help from someone ;-)
how to "un-stick" bootloader mode
... just incase anyone else has the same problem.
This was more luck than judgement....
I took out the battery re-inserted it with the joystick pressed in.
It re-entered bootloader mode, but this time with the colours showing and USB came up. Activesync then recognised the device again and I've got the install running again... now on 56% ... fingers crossed !!!
I would recommend anyone flashing their rom does the full unlock from IMEI-Check
Afterall, if there are problems its a LOT easier to fix a SuperCID device (CID unlocked) than one that has a country code.
Also, I was locked to TMob uk, they charge like £15 to remove just the sim lock even if they let you, so may as well spend the £20 and get it all done.
I can now use any rom and any sim, its worth the money.
Wait is better
Thanks to all for your answers.
I think I'll wait some time to see if an italian WM6 official rom will come out.
In case it will not appear, I'll follow the standard procedure to upgrade, e.g.
CID-unlock, flash, restart and ... hope! ;-)

New algorithms with SPL 2.03?

Does anyone experience the same difficulties with the new spl 2.03 like I do?
- I can't use the 'old' upgrade tools anymore. I keep getting an error 260 which is very frustrating as the new upgrade program does actually work, but gives me a CID error. Yep I don't have SuperCID.
- Any custom build rom with all Hermes rom cookers I tried will give me an 'image is corrupt' error when I use the new upgrade tools.
So it seems to me the spl password algorythm has been changed and the hashcalculation for the rom too
Now I'm left to debugging the new upgrade, in which I'm not to good at. Why am I doing this? I broke my Hermes during the upgrade and for warranty I really like to have the origal splash screens showing. Even updating the splash is't possible now. The SD method doesn't work either, apperently (and luckily for not bricking purposes) the bootloader seems to check that image too.
Any help is welcome in this.
Cheers, M

You need to use the new RUU since SPL-1.11. Both old and new RUU are packaged in CustomRUU, which will unpack either one or other depending on the SPL version you have.

You need a patched SPL in order to flash unsigned code. All custom builds are not properly signed with a valid HTC certificate.

Before the password was dynamic, algorithm explained in the wiki. In SPL versions 1.11 or newer the password is always: BsaD5SeoA
Don't know what you mean by "hashcalculation"... the CRC algorithm is still the same, in all bootloader versions.

With a non-patched SPL you won't be able to flash anything that is not signed.
If your CID is ok (info 2 bootloader command shows a valid CID), you can unbrick it by flashing a signed (shipped / official) rom matching your device's CID.
If your CID/radio is br0ken (shows "No GSM" when booting), you won't be able to flash anything on it, your only hope is having a KITL enabled OS image.
i have problem i have tmobile vario 2 after trying upgrade the rom to wm6 phone stop on 17% and now is stock on the bootloader mode spl 2.03 and i can to anything i try flashing with difrend wersion of the software and nothing.help
@pof: thanks for your instant reply and pointing me to my black-outs. The password does work, but still the lnbs command gives me back: invalid command. Maybe that's because the device isn't unlocked. Just like to flash the spl 1.01MFG so I can at least try to work my way out of the bricked situation. Since KITL isn't enabled there isn't much hope, I know. I really tried all the wiki solutions.
Guess there are only two options left: repair centre and IMEI-check for JTAG flash.
Anyone knowing an other alternative, pls let me know

Tricolor and invalid vendor ID

After flashing my locked T-mob vario dutch (for the 20st time) it now is bricked.
I tried to flash the Fun_Key_rom.
Hermes is stuck on the HTC logo 1pl-1.01 and SPL-2.03 not Super CID. (because of the warranty). I followed the thread about unbricking, but untill now no result.
I can flash it with Ruu.exe (and ruuwrapper.exe) the option 2.02/2.10 works for me untill 1% and then I get a invallid vendor ID.
I read the thread over and over again, but didn't seem to get how to unbrick it. Do I need to have a special rom? or other software?
no you need to flash Hard SPL on your phone right now!!! you can always unflash the HardSPL at a later date but you where just asking for a brick by not flashing HardSPL in the first place!

Yes, you need to use CustomRUU to avoid the invalid vendor ID. It bypasses the CID check. That is why it works, even though you are not superCID.
Regarding the 260 error, try a couple things.
If you can, try SD flashing.
If you cannot do SD method, try using "manual bootloader" method:
- Put phone in bootloader mode
- NOW attach to USB lead
- Start CustomRUU
If that does not work, try taking the battery out for a while (5 minutes) and then try again.

It may be the RUUWrapper you have, but you can get it at THIS THREAD You may already have used it though, on the one that did not give you the invalid vendor error. Use it with the nbh file. If you only have an exe, then you can use winrar to take it apart into 2 files - the ruu file (the updater) and the nbh (the ROM itself). Once you are using the right CustomRUU, try the things I mentioned in my previous post.
Other things to be sure of...
If you are using Vista, check with MrVanx guides to see what you need to do.
You must have...
ActiveSync 4.5
.NET framework 2 or higher
Thanks for ur help. Really appr. it.
When I use the CustomRuu on any nbh file I'll get the Update error (260).
If I use the same nbh file on the RUU.exe file and I choose the 2.02/2.10 option it flashes my mobile till 1%. Then I get error 274 Invalid Vendor ID.
I see on the forum a lot of people bricked there Tytn on SPL 2.03.
Is Mr. Olipro having an solution?

After flashing my locked T-mob vario dutch (for the 20st time) it now is bricked.
I tried to flash the Fun_Key_rom.
Hermes is stuck on the HTC logo 1pl-1.01 and SPL-2.03 not Super CID. (because of the warranty). I followed the thread about unbricking, but untill now no result.
I can flash it with Ruu.exe (and ruuwrapper.exe) the option 2.02/2.10 works for me untill 1% and then I get a invallid vendor ID.
I read the thread over and over again, but didn't seem to get how to unbrick it. Do I need to have a special rom? or other software?

You are in a quite bad situation. I am not well aware about all the new ways to backup bricked hermes; but as far as I know the only remaining possibility for you is to flash your device using the default flasher AND a rom matching your CID.
Hopefully tmobile dutch released an updated WM5 release for your phone. You should be able to flash it, setup hardspl, and flash anything you want; but in a safe way this time.
There is maybe a way to tweak the CID of cooked ROM, but don't know anything about it (and there will certainly be signing issues).
In order to get your CID and see if something matching it is available at the wiki read the wiki about mtty (as far as I remember it is something like "type 2").

Hope Olipro will release a CustomRuu version where 2.03 can be flashed. Lot of people have probs with 2.03. Dutch T-Mob haven't released anything there is no rom availeble.

I got another error on cooked roms (26008 or something) and when I put an org. carrier rom on the card it says checking but will not install because its not a legal rom.
Because of a hardware error I had to return my Tytn today..while it still is bricked. Hope Tmob will be kind and fix this for me along with the hardware issue
