Looks like a radio ROM. Won't flash on European Topaz, complains about Vendor ID

Here it is...

As I said, it's on htc's site, support section..
Here you are: http://www.htc.com/www/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=249&act=sd&cat=all
But seems like it's only for Hong Kong users..

Yes, it's for Hong Kong users only.

HTC website stated that the hotfix file is to be run in device, but the file (in 12MB) needs to run in host pc instead. This RUU file stated the device ROM will be refreshed and all data will be erased after running. This seems like a ROM upgrade.
This is what HTC website stated:
"Copy the hotfix, which is an .exe file, to your device. To install the hotfix, tap the .exe file and follow the on-screen instructions."
Does anybody can run this hotfix file directly on your Diamond2?

No, I couldn't. I can run the downloaded file on PC only, but with very strange characters.
Does someone start the update?

It is a regular RUU style update, it basically updates the Radio ROM. Will only work on an Asian device or one with Goldcard

English Cingular 8525 ROM update available: v1.34 radio 1.16

Here is another new ROM from the still unreleased Cingular 8525: HTC Hermes (HERM100) branded from U.S. Operator Cingular.
ROM Version: 1.34.502.1
ROM Date: 09/22/06
Radio: 1.16.00.00
Bootloader: 1.06
As always, download link on the wiki upgrading page:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Upgrades
If you have questions be sure to read the Hermes wiki first, specially the Upgrading FAQs.
Notes on this ROM:
* See the threads on the previous Cingular ROMs for upgrading issues such as enabling video calls, band selection tab, ExtROM customizations, PTT button, etc...
-v1.30
-v1.31
-Downgrading instructions
UPGRADING INSTRUCTIONS:
* People with bootloader <= 1.04 just follow the normal procedure (run RUU twice after invalid vender ID error).
* People with bootloader 1.06 (those who have flashed the cingular 1.31 rom) need to downgrade to bootloader 1.04 first:
1) Put your device in bootloader mode by holding the side Ok button and the power button and at the same time reset with the stylus.
2) Upgrade to a ROM matching your CID, that is a ROM from your vendor (TyTN owners use the TyTN rom, dopod owners the dopod rom, jasjam owners the imate rom, etc...). This will get you back to bootloader 1.04
3) Flash the new 1.34 ROM as usual (run RUU twice after invalid vender ID error).
Enjoy
Guys, i'm at work and still haven't had time to flash it on my Hermes, so the first flashing it please update the OS build and protocol version on the wiki. Thanks
Any chance that we have release notes for this ROM uploaded as well?
Thanks.
cant run the rom file, it said file corrupted. i downloaded twice, both time it said rom file is corrupted. please re upload the rom
Tried to flash from 1.31 to 1.34 - but I get error message ERROR [294] INVALID VENDER ID
Anyone had any luck flashing 1.34
Doesnt upgrade from 1.31 - just get an invalid vender id error...
EDIT: can't downgrade either using the bootloader method - seems like we are now stuck on this rom until a solution is found!
Have you tried to restart the falshing SW without touching the hermes and without disconnecting the USB?
You are supposed to do this a second time when you get this error

Yep - tried this with Dopod, Cingular 1.30, and HTC ROMs - all get the same invalid vender ID error...
tried that, but it is no help
ROM FILE is corrupted. download 3 times, everytime it got erros and said the rom file is corrupted. please re upload the rom

Clear your cache, rom file is OK, I checked the md5sum of it.
Same here - Invlid vendor ID.
Something's fishy here. Some can downgrade and some cannot. What's your device's CID awharton if I may ask?
It makes sense that a direct upgrade from 1.31 -> 1.34 will fail. However, a downgrade to the original TyTN ROM for users having a real TyTN (CID QTEK_001) followed by an upgrade to 1.34 should work. I believe TyTN owners have been reporting success at downgrading from 1.31 although this is mystifying too as one would expect that the bootloader version downgrade should prevent this also....

Its a Orange M3100 SIM unlocked (HERM100)
let me REBOOT my pc and try again.
i cleared my cache. still got erros. and said can not unpack, file is corrupted..
@people getting invalid vendor ID:
Please report:
- which device do you have: TyTN, Vario II, SPVM3100, DOPOD 838pro, etc...
- Your device CID: QTEK_001, CDL__001, O2___102, etc... can be checked by "info 2" bootloader command, leave blank if you don't know it.
- Current ROM on your device before trying to upgrade
- Bootloader version

True - thinks this makes sense. As Orange haven't released an upgrade yet I can't test this out. Need someone that has a Dopod or TyTN to experiment...
I'm trying this now. I got the same invalid vendor ID (HTC TyTN, running 1.31), and now I'm flashing back to 1.18. This seems to be working, albeit very slowly. I'll keep you updated if I can upgrade from 1.18 - 1.34; the flash to 1.18 should take about 25 minutes.
For people on Cingular, does push to talk work on this rom? If not, then this is not the final rom.

Fall Back to Original Rom (Tmobile)

Hi @ all...
so time has come i will return my phone to tmobile, because of the heavy problems with the slide-out-keyboard. i tried to solve my keyboard-problems with the orignal shipped rom, but i realised that it doesn't matter which rom i flash to my phone, the problem seems to be of hardware-ish nature...
so now my problem is: i want to fall back to the original state...
i want original IPL,SPL,OS,Radio, Boot, etc etc...
i tried to flash the "Original Shipped TMOB101" from the wiki, it flashed nice with CustomRUU...the original flash utility couldn't find my phone.
so i unpacked the exe and flashed the nbh with CustomRUU... flashed nicely, but didn't boot... first problem: whitescreen, second: hang on windows mobile screen, third: NOGSM... tried to flash newer GSM 1.43. this worked nice then, but isn't original... any idea how to get the 1.05.02 radio running? tried to reflash the complete tmobile nbh again, same result.
tried to flash with Vista, and also with XP, nothing changed...
next problem i assume is: how to downgrade SPL? and how to detect Bootversion? could it be, that i flashed some newer boot in between, because, i have always flashed newest radio roms, could it be that i flashed a boot together with a certain radio?
hope someone can help me... my device is also simunlocked, i hope they do not recognize it at tmobile. but i want to get everything else into original state before returning.
greetings

There is now an official wm6 update which you can use
it's available here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=337163
If you're wondering if it's properly been released, it's also available on the t-mobile business site.
Shaks
shaks1979,
I have just been to the tmobile business site and I cannot find the WM6 update - please can you post a link to it?
many thanks,
Paul
the german t-mobile site dies not offer to download the upgrade yet.
flashed the new WM6 from t-mobile yesterday, and it works really great, but my keyboard isn't functional anyway...
has anyone an idea how to enable the flash-utility to overwrite the SPl and IPL? because my tri-color-screen reads IPL-1.01 and SPL-2.10-Olipro and this means, both of them have not been updated... any way to overwrite these rom-sections with the now tmobile ones?
so when finished upgrading (IPL and SPL have to be upgraded before i can go on) i will return my phone to a tcom store, they have to bother with my keyboard issue... my phone isn't a half year old by now... keyboard issues like this shouldn't be there i assume
greetings
and thanks for the new wm6 links.
garfield
Extract the nbh file from the T-Mobile ROM and flash it with CustomRUU. This will overwrite IPL / SPL
[...see reason]
which settings do i have to use with CustomRUU? do i have to select same radio-buttons as always? (SPL 2.10-Olipro/Is it HardSPL) ?
okay, so i found the option via try and error i had to use use: Force UNSAFE SSPL.
i have another question now:
as far as i know, t-mobile DE has not released this ROM to its customers via their website, so i have to flash my phone back to WM5 original rom, and bootloaders, because this new tmobile rom didn't make my problems with the keyboard go away.
my local store told me that they will send the device back to tmobile, and tmobile then will repair or exchange the device.
so if they send it back to tmobile, i uess i have to put it into original state, haven't i? cause flashing the rom causes loss of warranty, doesn't it? i hope they will not recognize, that i sim-unlocked it (did not touch the CID).
problem occurring: i extracted the nbh from the original shipped-archive and flashed it with CustomRUU but when booting NO GSM shows up, and windows stops booting during first bootsplash... sometime during second bootsplash... any idea? might it be that it was like this, because of olipros 2.10 SPL?
greetings
garfield
I wonder why you SIM unlocked your device?
The German Hermes never was SIM locked, so, there was no need to unlock it!
You will either have to Soft-CID-unlock or Hard-CID-unlock your device if you want to flash it otherwise it won't work!
What settings are you talking about? You simply copy the nbh file to the CustomRUU folder and run the UPDATE UTILITY in there! There are no settings, it works the same way as the utilities from shipped ROMs - simply follow the instructions on screen and do not plug out nor touch the device until the job is done!
So actually it is not a hermes, it is a MDA Vario 2 from tmobile, isn't it?
partly you're right, the device wasn't sim-locked, but net-locked, wich means i cannot use my second sim card from vodafone with it. so i had to unlock it.
(i tried without unlocking, the phone asked me for a certain code and no, it was not the pin-code from the vodafone-sim )
if you launch CustomRUU you are asked for the version of your SPL, at least this is what happens when i start it. if you cannot imagine what i am talking about, i will make a screenshot, for better understandings.
I had Hard-SPL installed, this is a form of SOFT-CID-unlocking?
with having Hard-SPL installed i could not boot the original shipped german TMOB101-rom from the wiki...
can i flash the old ipl/spl/radio/os without worries?
greetings
garfield
Within the CustomRUU folder you should see a file called ROMUpgradeUt.exe - this never ever asks for SPL, it is nothing but a modified FLASHING UTILITY.
i only have ruuwrapper.exe
i used this customruu v5.2 from olipro's thread
what customruu are you talking about? actually i never saw a file named ROMUpgradeUt.exe
where to find?
thanks for your help.
greetings
garfield
EDIT:
i have just found this:
NOTE: If your radio version is currently HIGHER than 1.27.00.00 then it is very likely the radio bootloader is version 0108, this WILL NOT allow the radio to be downgraded to a radio containing BL 0106 and will result in a "NO GSM" error. As with other downgrade guides this is NOT intended as a guide for claiming the warranty of the device having flashed components which are not authorised by the manufacturer or carrier.

Cooking Help Needed: Working on a HTC HD7 o2 NoDo ROM

Hey all you ROM-cookers out there! I'm new to this thread but still I suppose I'm able to learn quickly.
For 2 days now I'm trying to find a way to flash the current NoDo ROM for the HD7 onto my Phone. It's an o2-Germany Phone with ID O2___102.
Here's my material:
- The NoDo Rom for HD7 HTC-Europe: from here (Flashable on IDs: HTC__001, HTC__203, HTC__102, HTC__032, HTC__405, HTC__304)
- The three Unbranding O2_DE ROM Files from Ansar: from here (All Flashable on IDs: O2___102)
they are:
* 1 - RUU_Schubert_O2_DE_1.61.207.01_Radio_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50.10U_by_ansar
* 2 - RUU_Schubert_O2_DE_1.16.401.01_Radio_5.51.09.06a_22.30.50.09U_Signed_by_ansar (Which always leads to an error in the end)
* 3 - RUU_Schubert_O2_DE_1.61.207.01_Radio_5.52.09.16_22.33a.50.10U_Signed_by_ansar
- An Original O2ROM from here
- An ominous ModelID.fig from the Ansar files (could it be, this is only an Imagefile?)
I worked with Hex-Editors, the NBH-Image Tool v1-2 here
but still: Everytime my created ROM gets stuck at 0%.
Here's what I tried already:
- Following this post I inserted the ModelID.fig into the HTC-Europe NoDo-Update Folder -> Stopped at 1% saying: Wrong ID - what a surprise! ;-)
- Change ID in RUU_signed.nbh and SPL from NoDo Update via Hex-Editor from HTC__001 to O2___102 and keep all other IDs -> 0%
- Change ID in RUU_signed.nbh and SPL from NoDo Update via Hex-Editor from HTC__001 to O2___102 and delete all other IDs -> 0%
- Unpack the original o2-ROM (RUU and SPL) via the NBH-ImageTool and repack it, try to flash it. Why does THIS not work? -> 0%
- Following this post and the ones after that I joked around with extraction out of and into the OS-Files. Nice Tools - but it didn't work out (See above- even with the original o2 ROM - just unpacked and repacked didn't work...) So no use here...
Here's my understanding of what should work and is my goal to achieve: If I unpack the NoDo-Rom with the NBH-ImageTool, enter the right CID and repack it - then it should update on my HD7 from O2-DE, right? --> It doesn't ;(
Got that idea from here.
Do i need the right O2_DE pvk file to sign my ROMS with the NBHImageTool? Do I get that somewhere? (Suppose: No)
So can anybody give me a hint what I do wrong?
I'm try this method's too... I'm have t-mobile hd7. =(
I'm wait unbranding rom, or i'm want try goldcard...
G'Day!
thx for trying...same here O2 Germany. Nothing has worked so far.
U should edit your topic since this is especially related to non O2 Uk devices.
regards

good luck my friend, i can't wait for this
I also have trouble signing the ROMs to be flashable;
Even if its a ROM for my device's region, as soon as i extract it and build it again with NBHImageTool (without any modification), it become un-flashable.
You should probably ask this from ansar, as he has managed to do this. Although I'm not sure if he is willing to share what he know, but if you found out, please share with us too
You are also right about ModelID.fig being an image file. It does not contain any information that can affect the flashing process in anyway.
If you manage to figure this out, would you mind doing the same to make a T-Mobile US ROM?
you could try this.
use the SPL_signed.nbh from a rom you can flash to .
so the nodo .nbh(RUU_signed.nbh from the new c&p build) and the SPL_signed.nbh from a rom you can flash.

aaaarrrgghh
First of all, Hi
2nd, I decided the other day it would be a good idea to load the win 7 software using aMAGLDR V1.12.......I now don't like it and would like to revert back to win 6.5.
I've tried connecting the phone to my laptop (running win7) but it's not recognised. What am I doing wrong and where do I go from here to get the phone back to some form of normality?
When I get the RGBW screen it comes up with:
PB81100 HX-BC
SPL-2.08.HSPL 8G XE
0x05
CotullaHSPL 0x30
Please help me, I am very new to this and will need things simplfying if poss :S
Cheers
Dan
I heard you guys are the ones to see if there is anyway to cook the files from the w7update that backs up your wp7 phone... has any of u guys ever looked into seeing if a selective restore or extracting certain files is possible from the files?
if i am barking up the wrong tree.... point me to the right tree...
thanks
nice to see the info here... its awesome
No Developments here. Wp7 Central is too quiet.

Zune HTC Windows Update!

Hi Guys, I just installed what I believe the accompanying Tango firmware for Titan 1 (see attached screen capture). For those who have read my previous thread on debranding AT&T Titan to Euro 2.5 rom, this also confirm that you can easily reflash stock rom on DFT hspl'ed phone using RUU.
To revert to stock rom, I used the TitanAdvancedRUU to flash stock euro rom v2.5 then used the cab sender to update to spl 2.6. At this point, I connected my phone to zune hoping to get an update notice but no joy What I did after this was to force update from 8107 to 8773 using a cab sender (see post from AlvinPhilemon http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1306415&page=106) The Tango update somehow triggered the firmware update from Zune.
The Zune update took roughly around 20-30mins, when it reboots the phone it was stuck on the htc boot page for about 10mins at this point I manually restarted the phone, and this time around it boot up and completed updated
I haven't noticed any changes that i can tell outright from previous version but i'm hoping that this might rectify stock rom known bugs eg. random reboot, wifi signal etc... on the second thought maybe the display font looks much better /cleaner maybe its just me
Hmmm I see on the first screen that after update you have 4.6 bootloader version (and SPL). I think now you can't install HSPL and I don't know whether you can do downgrade for install HSPL and customROMs.

With this new bootloader 4.6, I can confirm that this does not allow direct downgrade of SPL to install HSPL.:crying: ... even gold card method doesn't work. Initially I thought that I will be stuck with this stock rom which is not bad considering that I have an up to date rom and firmware installed... but not as good of having a fully unlocked phone Anyway, I tried re-installing stock Euro rom 2.05 first using RUU, but I got an invalid vendor, so proceeded using goldcard but I got "not allowed" on usb mode and kick back to spl screen. As last resort I tried the stock cingular rom 1.10 using RUU lo and behold it proceeded to complete the flash and I end up with bootloader 1.10 (see screen shot) :laugh: Following this I thought it will be an easy way back to installing DFT spl2.5 and hspl by the same route I've taken before that is to debrand to Euro rom 2.05 using gold card method but strangely it wouldn't allow me, I got "not allowed" thingee after entering to usb mode At this stage I was really worried that maybe my phone was stuffed from whatever thing that was installed from htc bootloader 4.6 or maybe my goldcard is not actually working. So tried flashing cingular rom using gold card method and it did work. I tried few times to flash euro roms (diffferent versions) but without success. I even tried updating to spl 2.6 then flash euro rom to debrand but again failed... so out of desperation I decided to flash DFT spl 2.5 and the most strange thing happened it was installed then I proceeded with hspl this also went through without a glitched and now I am back on CUSTOM ROM!!! whew... for those who are now running custom rom, especially for AT&T Titan phone version, please don't mess up with your phone and try what I just been through... not a nice experience at all, I think its dumb luck that I got back to custom rom:angel:
LOL
Thanks fro sharing m8 ...
New to the board - I hope my first question is not that stupid.
Got a new (European / German, unbranded) Titan yesterday.
Zune updated to 8773, automatically without any force today.
But it wouldn't get the HTC update (I was still on bootloader 2.6.xxx).
So I used the cab sender with the original HTC update (found it on this board) - it worked without any problem and I have the same versions as posted on the pic in the first message (bootloader 4.6.175006.2(140733)).
My question is: Will I be able to receive official Zune updates after that? Or am I stuck to the cab sender for future updates (7.8 & co.)?!
My device is not flashed or changed in any way - just used that HTC update cab...
Couldn't find a quick answer to that...
THANKS ! :fingers-crossed:

Short answer yes, you will still get official (future) updates from Zune. I reckon if you have waited a bit longer, you would have received update notification from Zune but doesn't matter anyway now that you have the updated firmware.
I have an AT&T branded HTC Titan, and aside from the wifi bug, my device generally works as expected. I used the cab sender "force update" method to upgrade to Tango, and again-- everything is pretty solid.
Can I (and should I consider) update the HTC firmware for general device fixes if I have no intention of unlocking the device?

The available cab htc firmware update is for Euro/International/unbranded Titan, so this will not install on AT&T branded Titan. It will come with error it you try to install the cab.
this is very confused

HTC Desire V (T328W) : Update radio after installing custom ROM.

* disclaimer, I ‘am only new on android so this procedure might include flaws and perhaps unnecessary or stupid steps. There might be better ways although it worked for me. You have to reinstall your apps. Of course I ‘am not responsible if your device gets bricked. Pay notice you will have to reinstall you’re apps again and probably a redo a lot of settings. Backup your data well
Thanks to kingcedz who got me started.
This procedure will get your radio updated to version 1.06. (at least it did in my case)
If you have installed a custom ROM already you are unable to update the radio version. In my case I had symptoms that for example the Facebook app and Google play did work over 3G even at high speed, but internet browsing was impossible. The radio update solved this.
IT IS HIGHLY RECOMMANDABLE TO UPDATE THE RADIO ALSO. VERSION 1.04 DOESN’T WORK WELL ON SOME OPERATORS.
If you want to do so, we have to go through some drastic measures though. Pay notice again the result will be like a fresh install!
1. Backup all data from your phone.
2. If your bootloader locked, unlock it first.
a. For this I ‘am referring to this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=28172565#post28172565
Follow the ‘bootloader unlocking’ instructions first.
3. Backup your system.
a. Boot into fastboot (or you are already there!)
b. Go to bootloader
c. Go to recovery
d. Choose ‘backup and restore’
e. Choose ‘backup’
4. Lock phone
a. Boot into fast boot
b. Connect USB
c. With command prompt : “fastboot oem lock”
5. Install original RUU
a. Reboot system
b. Connect USB
c. Run original RUU.exe. In my case it was “RUU_PRIMO_DS_ICS_40A_HTCCN_CHS_CU_1.35.1402.1_Radio_1.04.34D.11_20.11.30.11U_release_256137_signed.exe”. Google will find you some downloads.
d. Follow onscreen instructions.
6. System will be rebooted. Follow setup instructions. Don’t bother too much with the settings, although make sure you set language to English and set up a WIFI if possible. That will be useful for downloading the update.
7. Update OTA
a. Go to settings >> about >> software updates >> check now
b. If asked select to download the update.
c. After downloading select ‘Install now’.
d. This will take a while. When finished you can check your version in about >> software version. Baseband should be 1.06.34D.05_20.22.30.23U and ruu should be 1.59.401.1
8. Unlock phone
a. Boot into fastboot
b. Connect USB
c. Run “fastboot flash unlocktoken” unlock_code.bin
9. Reinstall clockwork recovery
a. Boot into fastboot
b. Connect USB
c. Run command “fastboot flash recovery recovery.img”
10. Restore backup
a. Boot into fastboot (or you are already there!)
b. Go to bootloader
c. Go to recovery
d. Choose ‘backup and restore’
e. Choose ‘restore’
f. Choose backup image (check backup date to get correct one if you have multiple)
g. Scroll all the way down until you see ‘yes’. Select ‘Yes’. (google must think if we get to this place we still are not sure what we are doing)
11. To make WIFI and BT work if they don’t work.
a. Follow step 9 of this procedure:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1751788
12. Reboot!
a. Set up your phone to your preferences
b. Everything should be OK now. You have to reinstall you’re apps.
Enjoy!
Thank you for your manual, today my Desire V left Hongkong to Germany, hope I can do this procedure soon.
After flashing the radio, is the device still s-off / rooted / etc.?

I wouldn't know for sure I think so would you be able to restore a backup when it is s-on?
Did you order from Etotalk? I would reccomend going through my procedure first. I think you can skip the restore backup part you will end up with chinese ROM.
And after that i would reccomend installing European ROM. It includes Google Play.
After that you might need step 11 from my procedure if BT and WIFI are not working.

Myn came from etotalk a month ago and I still had an old baseband version and also ROM version.
Hello
Is there a chance to flash the radio via fastboot ?
That will be much easier !?
Greetz Peppo
Yeah got it working.
Thx for the instructions . . .
There are custom roms out for the T328w?!?!?!
Or are you talking about the default European ROM, or the default Taiwan ROM, and China ROM

Hi,
After downloading the OTA the system rebooted int recovery and did not load update. The update is:-
OTA_PRIMO_DS_ICS_40A_HTCCN_CHS_CU_1.71.1402.1-1.56.1402.6_release_272872kj6658r9tn9cj8ku
Tried updating using install in clockwork but I got (Status 7) error
Can anyone help?????

htc t328w radio update 1.07.34D.17 20.24.30.25U . bug fixe .faster and sim dtection problems fixe and better connection
but i lose my root no gapps
i need help to root my phone
htc desire v
We need some help from people from china. there is a new RUU which contains the new radio. Can somebody upload this file?
RUU_PRIMO_DS_ICS_40A_HTCCN_CHS_CU_1.71.1402.1_Radio_1.07.34D.17_20.24.30.25U_release_272837_signed.exe
Now the question is how to go from a custom rom from radio 1.06 to1.07?
I suppose that we have to relock the bootloader do a backup from custom recovery of our custom rom, flash the above exe to stock, unlock the bootloader again and flash custom recovery again.
We need the above RUU to try it.
thank you
edit we cannot go back to radio 1.04 from 1.06 and do ota since 1.04 contains older HBOOT
htc t238w
u only need the ruu zip china radio 1.04 and rename it PL11IMG
then relock your bootloader and flash it
after check for update and setting
but to root the phone back is another problems
htc desire v
Thank you for the info.
we need to flash the complete stock rom with radio 1.04 with the method you mentioned or just the radio 1.04?
Where can I find the flashable zip file to remane it as you said?
I have this file RUU_PRIMO_DS_ICS_40A_HTCCN_CHS_CU_1.35.1402.1_Rad io_1.04.34D.11_20.11.30.11U_release_256137_signed. exe. I dont think we can extract a zip flashable file from this file.
Now my device has unlocked bootloader, radio 1.06 (came with it) and installed european russian version and custom recovery.
I installed the european version using the pesudoflashig tools.
Can you give more details and upload the zip file needed?
thank you again
re
i have upload the rom for u ,rename it PL11IMG hotfile.com/dl/166036511/bfaa4a2/romPL11IMG.zip.htm
but my radio was 1.04 same as the zip ,so i dont know if it will work whit your radio version or not
good luck if you update and root your phone please let me know because didn't the the way to my and i try to downgrad back from 1.07 to 1.04 : main version is older update fail...
htc desire T328W
Thank you very much for the link. it cant work by flashig RUU or zip file renamed which contains oldest radio. update failed.
Actually I found the latest RUU with the newest radio from http:// b b s .zhangku.com. Flashed succesfully the new rom and my radio seems to work much better.
Radio 1.06 for me was not working well with my operators and I was loosing signal in sim 1 so I had to do upgrade.
The next step no is to unlock again bootloader flash back recovery and go back to europe rom with radio 1.07 using pseudoflashig tools or falseclock method.
I dont care much about root since europe rom contains by defauld gapps, but you can check the above site for any solution.
thanks
htc t328w
finaly i fond to install europ rom whit radio1.07
everything fine but no 3g data connection, but i will find solution
OK, guys. We have official ruu and unlocked bootloader. So, why can't we extract radio.img n then use a command like fastboot flash radio radio.img? Or did I misunderstand anything?
