Athena VendorID Wrong -> Bricked - Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo Upgrading

Hey,
I'm pretty new here but I hope I can get some help here.
I got myself a HTC X7550 (Athena) and when I connected it with activesync a romupdate started through a mistake by me.
It told me de vendor ID was wrong but instead of restarting,
my ROM image on the device was GONE.
Is there a way to know the vendorID and to find the original ROM image?
Regards FRaccie

Download the zip fiel called: Hard-SPL(2).zip
Than have your x7500 plugged to your pc and make sure you are on the bootloader (the 3 color screen).
Now unzip the file and copy the files to a different folder and than run the file:ROMUpdateUtility.exe
This will get you out of there and you can reset the x7500 once it's done.
After that download the file:AthenaUnlocker.zip and follow the instruction on the screen. After that you could install wm6.

Which Hard SPL version?
Hello, which version of Hard SPL should we use? for the athena? am having the same problem as the above concern. kindly provide full link to the file. tnx.

See attached file (if it uploaded). If not you can search for it here in this forum.

Unlock in Bootloader
Hi JasJarMan. Your attached file was for Trinitiy device. Can this also be used for the X7500 ?
I need to unlock my X7500 from Bootloader if it is possible.
I can not find any ROM that installs on my X7500 and I am stuck in bootloader. My Telephone supplier has not released the original ROM as a flash- file and therefore I am afraid my device is currently bricked.
If I could get it back in original state I would be very happy and try unlock it before flashing again.
Regards, Eric

Thanks Boinger66 but according to the video / docu in this tread, the unlock are done in x7500's operative system. I am currently at Bootloader because I can not boot the device with any operativesystem.
Can the unlock application in the tread also be used in bootloader "modus" ?

Solution: Downgrade from any 1.06 bootloader to 1.04.

1. Go to Google, search for DownGrade_SPL.rar
2. Connect your tytn to PC and wait until activesync completed.
3. Run M3100v3cUnlock.exe. Once you see checking device.... in DOS box and whilte screen on your tytn, close the program (Dos box) immedaitely.
4. Run ROMUpgradeUt.exe and follow the japanese wizard to complete the boot loader downgrade.
5. Reboot your tytn and then put it into bootloader mode agian, you should see SPL-1.04. Great!
6. Download pof's HTC_Hermes_SIM_Unlock_v2a from
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Hermes/Tools_and_Programs/HTC_Hermes_SIM_Unlock_v2a.zip
7. Flash the patched radio rom 1.16, then Reboot.
8. Copy HERM_Unlock_v2a.exe a small PPC app pof wrote into your TYTN memory.
9. Open File Explorer, run HERM_Unlock_v2a.exe on your TYTN and wait about 1 minute until it shows up a completed message. Reboot again!
10. Download mtty.exe from
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/uploads/mtty.exe
11. Disable ActiveSync, and then run mtty.exe, choose usb connection; Enter. You should see USB> prompt. Type in: info 2 . When you see 00000000 or SuperCID string. You are safe and ready to upgrade to the latest TYTN 1.35 Rom with bootloader 1.09.
Anybody tried this?
These are what I did on my Vodafone V1605 with bl 1.06. Guarantee working. Actually, this's not a new solution. It exists long time ago, but pof remove this file from wiki due to license issue. Some chinese fans downloaded this file before and shared on their forum. I hope pof won't remove this thread since the Downgrade file is from another website.

Great, many thx to you. I'm going to try it on SPL 1.09 now...
I confirm it downgrading SPL 1.09 to 1.04
Does this keep the os in place and change only the boot loader so one would be able to just upgrade the radio?
Will attempt myself.

Yes, it does. I have latest SA HTC firmware with 1.20 radio and SPL 1.04 now.
Confirmed this will allow you to downgrade bootloader only and do a radio only flash.

one question.
my device is stuck on bootloader mode and when I connect to Activesync it does not recognize my device.
is it a problem (I can't try now because I'm at work and I don't have the device by my side)?
I works¡¡. I had installed rom 1.35 and i could downgrade bootloader to 1.04, install radio rom 1.16, get supercid and now i can modify extended rom.
Thanks¡¡¡¡¡

If your tytn is stuck on bootloader 1.06 (can't boot into the OS) and don't have a 1.04 ship rom matching its CID in the wiki, you can't downgrade your bl now. Please be patient.

1. What's the current CID on your device?

3. Did you run pof Hermes unlocker and mtty.exe to make your device SuperCID before flashing to HTC 1.35 bl1.09?
Worked on my Cingular 8525. Thanks! I was pretty nervous to be hacking on my new toy, but so far, so good.

Final Upgrading Guide and Questions Answered

Ok... now this is going to be a work in progress and an answer to most questions...
To all pof, Des and Sleuth have done a great job in getting the tools together so we can flash our devices...
1. To all who want to SuperCID your device no matter what ROM version you have and no matter what Radio BootLoader version you have you can use POF's version 3 unlocker found here http://pof.eslack.org/hermes-unlocker/
2. Once you have SuperCID your device you can now load extracted ExtRom, OS, and radio roms (radio can only be done if you have radio bootloader 107 or less) to do this goto http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_BootloaderMFG
3. For all of those not interested in ROM cooking and flashing cooked ExtROM's all you need to use is des's SSPL tool... just copy it onto your device and run it... the SPL version should say SPL-1.09.des. The tool can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293651
4. Just to clarify... once you have flashed radio bootloader 108 onto your device it is possible to do Extracted Radio only upgrades please read edit 3 below..... to check what radio bootloader version a radio rom has goto http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_ExtractedRadioRoms and radio only upgraded require SPL 1.04... for instructions on how to flash that goto http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_BootloaderMFG
5. if your device is unusable please refer to here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_UpgradeProblems
appologies for all the links but thats what the wiki is for guys... lots of reading but it is all worth while in the end...
and if ive missed anything feel free to add...
edit 1... The reason you SuperCID your device is to enable flashing of any SPL Bootloader versions, extracted OS roms, extracted ExtROM's and to an extent Radio ROM's (only if your device has RadioBootloader 107 or less).... but SuperCIDing your device voids the warranty... if your just looking to upgrade your device to a newer ROM and are worried about the warranty just use des's SSPL tool... read point 3 above...
edit 2... the SSPL tool... you need to copy this onto your device while windows mobile is running... if your device is not in a usable state refer to point 5... once its finished copying click on the exe and run it... it will put your device into a 'Service' mode and with bootloader versions IPL-SSPL by Des and SPL-1.09.ds... all you need to do now is choose which shipped original rom you want to use to flash your device with... see here for options http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades
edit 3... now who wants the good news woo hoo!!!! i have managed to create an unsigned nbh file and flash it onto my device... now please all follow these details step by step
1. download this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=294046
2. download the appropriate Full Shipped ROM from either the Trinity or the Hermes of which you want to rip the Radio from
3. download this http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_NBH
4. extract the RUU_signed.nbh file from the exe using winrar or something
5. open a command prompt and point it to the same folder where you extracted the files you downloaded..
6. run nbhextract to extract the radio rom... delete all other .nb files except for 05_GSM.nb
7. edit the text file for nbhgen and delete all information except for this
HERM100
SuperCID
1.23.707.6
USA
300,05_GSM.nb
8. run nbhgen.. this will generate the nbh file required to flash your device...
9. copy SSPL to your device.. refer to here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=293651
10. execute SSPL on your device which will put you into the 'Service' mode,
11. now run the RomUpgradeUT.exe file... and your done!!!!!!!! any questions just ask...

Hello all,
I am a little confused about the issue of going back to BL 0107 if you flash Radio 1.33 + or Rom (say) 2.05 because you end up with BL 0108.
Isn't it true if you use Des's SSPL tool you can flash any ROM, so you can flash an older ROM, then you end up with older OS, Radio and Extended ROM as well as IPL and SPL??
Also if you use Boot loader 1.01 MFG, then upgrade individual components using MTTY??
With the latest developments over the past few days, it looks like Hermes is now an open field where one can try whatever combination as long as you can boot into service mode or Windows.
I would appreciate a comment from the developers confirming or explaining the current limitations.
Simple.
Please Answer if you are sure
Look !
my tytn have bootloader 1.09 and during upgrade it stopped , that is to say my phone das no OS so I cannot pass "WIndows Mobile " Screen unless I upgrade fully upgrade rom . I have read and tried all suggested ways but they are not useful , because bootloader 1.09 checks CID but my CID is corrupted .
I need a way to pass CID check same as SSPL . but I cannot copy any thing to phone . The only way which can help me , is a file which able to pass phone's CID check from PC .

ok now you have to open an mtty session... download this ftp://xda:[email protected]/Hermes/Cooked_ROMs/SPL-1.01MFG_Pack.zip
1. Disable 'Allow USB Connections' in Activesync
2. Open mtty.exe
3. type \\.\WCEUSBSH001 in the port section and click ok
4. press 'Enter' twice and type task 32 and press enter
4. type info 2 and tell me what is displayed...
What about writing an app which fully identifies all Hermes specs? It should open a message box and answer whether device is SuperCID, which IPL, SPL, RBL, ROM, Radio and if readable which ExtROM. Wouldn't that be nice? Every noob could give all the information viable for all others to help.
well if the user was to go and look at the device information application in 'Settings' > System then can find out what radio rom version they have when in turn if they look at the table in the wiki they can tell what version of Radio Bootloader they have... but i will investigate writing a little app... shouldnt be too hard...

Just to be clear:
Can you put the new "RUU_signed.nbh" from step 8 above back into the full RUU....._ship.exe using Winrar and run it that way too?
This is very cool! So we can change to any radio ROM (upgrade or downgrade), but technically we will still have radio BL 108, but who cares.

Hi Walshieau,
After I follow your edit 3 step, when I try to upgrade the radio,
it shown Error 262. What's that error message for?
Thanks
did you copy SSPL to your device and run it before you started the upgrade???
Am I right in thinking I could mix and match all the components with this tool?
I.E. extract the o.s. from one full update then extract the radio from another, then use "NBF generator" to merge them and flash them all at once?

Need help stuck in BL

I need help phone stuck in bootloader and its not registering the usb syn cable being attached I think i just need to set it to boot to os. Have HARD-SPL.
ok got usb working again but ruu says it can't find device. is that because its already because its already in bootloader?.
edit- did an info 8 in mtty and got this
Block 0x3A8(936) is BAD block !!!
Block 0x3A9(937) is BAD block !!!
Block 0x3AA(938) is BAD block !!!
EDIT- finally got home and was able to reflash os with sd card and phone works now.
but what did you do to be able to flash?
everytime I try to flash it enters the BL and hangs. Then it says it cannot update. I've got a 1.09 BL
thanks
Read here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=286755
giving more data:
which bootloader version on your device?
1.09
which rom on your device?
1.35.255.2
which RUU are u using?
HTC WWE version
which rom are u trying to flash?
2.11.255.1
Bootloader 1.09 is not compatible with new RUU version inside HTC's 2.11.255.1 ROM.
If you just run the shipped exe file (without unpacking), it will first upgrade your bootloader to 1.11 using the old RUU, then launch the new RUU and flash your rom.
BTW, i suggest you to read the hardSPL thread before attempting to upgrade
Ok, now I noticed that incompatibilty and used HArd SPL to upgrade to 1.11.
that's what it says now in threecolor bootloader.
But still when I try to upgrade it hangs on the bootloader saying HERM200 IPL-1.01 and HERM200 SPL-1.11 and USB in the white area. And in the PC it says OS information detecttion for ever!!
If I reboot it no problem, everything is working.
thanks for you help!!
ok, now that you have HardSPL-1.11 on your device, do this:
1. Use winrar to extract the contents of RUU_Hermes_QTEK_WWE_2.11.255.1_102_6275_1.38.00.10_108_Ship.exe
2. You will see a file named RUU_Inside.exe
3. Use winrar again to extract the contents of RUU_Inside.exe
4. Run the RUU you'll find here, with device in bootloader mode.
Keep in mind that this will overwrite HARD-Spl with the shipped 1.11 bootloader, if you don't want that, read the wiki:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_UpgradeGuide

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!

Had no problems for all those times..untill now I know it was stupid.
Trying to flash Hard SPL I got a 260 update error on the HardSPL v7. I also tried it with another upgrader and got an 270 error. It installed until 100% but no result.

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?
Have you tried these things...
Code:
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.

What were the specific errors for each method? I know you cannot get 260 with SD card flash method.

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").

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

Bricked?

My Wizard keeps starting up in the boot (rainbow) screen,
it says:
IPL 2.21.0001
SPL 2.21
Is it bricked? If i connect the phone "USB" appears in the down left corner, but activesync doesn't seem to react.
What to do?
As is in bootloader , not bricked
so reflash with new rom but be sure it is cid unlocked

I Think so, i'd never removed it....
Soo...
Nothing you can do.. [except imei-check]
Maybe try to load an official rom or Wizard Love
And read about G4 version.
I see that you tried to load an SPL rom
I think that you are lucky.
You only have HalfBricked Wizard )

i think it will solve it ,,,,,,,,,,,,,, good luck
