[Q] Are there many region protected rom?? so confused - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I wonder does HSPL will cause people who want to flash Original Factory Rom such as WWE,Asia WWE or Asia TW Rom(Chinese Rom), if my HD2 is from UK. Or we have to use gold card to flash HTC Factory Rom??
Or HSPL just for people who want to flash cook Rom?
I have saw people got problem after flash HSPL and got messege saying: "Your OS ROM isn't customized for your hardware. Please reflash the proper ROM code or contact the service center", !!! Problem NOT related to HSPL !!! ... this means that you flashed a region protected rom... flash any other rom that has your region ID
Can soem people tell me mroe about it, I have been download few official Rom from XDA such as WWE, Asia WWE, and Asia TW Rom, so does all of the Rom are region protected?? or only some special Rom

The HDSPL does what the Gold Card did and more. The features outlined below allow you to now flash any cooked or stock Roms.
Features
- Disabled CID Check, so you can flash any official ROM without using a Gold Card.
- Security Level = 0, so you can use all the boot loader commands (for developers).
- This HSPL will not get overwritten when flashing a full NBH with SPL via RUU.
- No NBH signatures check, so you can flash unsigned ROM images.
It's been suggested to remove your SD card when flashing your device with the Hard SPL as previous images / files can impact on the success of the installation.

As far as I understand the issue, it is not the ROMs that are region protected, so that is not what is causing some a problem. I believe the problem is that some phones have encoded firmware that restricts the type of ROMS that can be installed. So, some people can only install ROMS that are designed for the region.
You can search the threads for a way to work around such problems.

Completly change Vendor ?

Sorry for anoob question.
My phone Vendor is Asia.
Is it possible to completly change VENDOR to WWE???
yes HSPL2...

Yes I know... But question is to change and make it like another stock VENDER.
I mean i have Asya VENDER and i wanna to make it WWE VENDER, just like if it was from stock.
Is it possible?
yes it is. flash hspl2, choose 1.66.hspl or 2.08.hspl, flash any ANY rom, from ANY vendor, example O2 WWE, or Vodaphone WWE, or T Mobile Germany, or Eastern Europe, or Simplified chinese, or t mobile usa, or HTC WWE, or cooked roms, anything you like.
This WILL NOT let you use any sim if your phone is locked.
Just remember to flash using USB and not sd card.
Dear Sir Samuel.
I understand what you mean. But maybe you not understand me... Sorry about my english...
I'll try to explain what i'm talking about.
The question is ONLY about flashing stock ROMs, not customs.
I understand that with HSPL i can flash everything but...
When we install some ROM, it checks vender id which is flashed somewere in the devise, and if flashing ROM is WWE and devise has asian ID there we have error.
Question is, is it possible to change VENDER ID, in the devise, i mean just like it was putted in trhe devise from factory.
All i need it to flash now and future stock WWE ROMs.
Question is because if it was be possible, i will upgrade my 1.66 phone with 3.14 WWE as i like and not with Asian 3.14.
It is important, because every next ROM meybe come with newer SPL version, and i need to have devise wich accepts completly official updates.
In one word i need to change the citizenship of my devise
Sorry about my english, and to many words.
Thank you
have you tried? because as far as I am aware, hspl bypasses vendor ID.
BUT, you will not be able to use hspl to instal the 3.14 rom, because it doesn't work properly with hspl, so you can't get to spl 3.x
If your question is 'other than hspl, is there a way to change the vendor ID', , , you could try a goldcard, but if it goes wrong you may be stuck with an spl 3.x. (Though flashing your original stock from sd card should fix it, , bit of a risk though, i have a goldcard but im not trying it till hspl3.03 comes out.)

There we are. I don't need bypass Vendor ID, I know that is possible.
But i just wanna change my Vendor ID with another one.
Once to forever. I dont need custom ROM-s
I just wanna to any next official WWE ROM, when installing "thinks" that devise is WWE.
May be i don't understand what is VENDOR ID or where is flashed/recorded on the devise... May be VENDOR ID is serial number of some microchip and we cant reflash it... I dont know.
OK
Just forget about flashing ROM-s...
Can you tell me, where in the devise, Vendor ID is recorded?
From where, ROM installer asks devise for it?
And can we change this ID on the devise?
sounds to me like you need an electronics engineer.

My problem is 3.03 spl...
Thank you Sir.
ah i get you, you want to flash a 3.14 rom, but they doint work correctly because you don't have the 3.03 spl. I see.
In that case, the answer is to wait, i guess. Regional 3.14 roms are being released, so there will be one for your area soon, meaning you can get the 3.03 spl, and then use sspl to flash the wwe 3.14, perhaps.
In the meantime, cross your fingers that someone is working on hspl3.03
You could also use SSPL to flash to a new 3.14 ROM.
Remember when flashing with SSPL, SPL and radio aren't flashed...
So you would only get the new rom (not SPL 3.03 and the new radio)
Grtz,
Degake

[Q] Neede Help..Please

i am just a newbie to all this...i just wanted to update my rom...
my details are:-
OS------5.2.21864
ROM-----1.43.206.49703150 WWE
RADIO----2.15.50.14
Just a few days back i flashed my radio to that version...but now i wanted to update my rom version to 3.14.xx
I read the page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623283 but can't understand which version to download...is it safe to install..World Wide English (WWE) 3.14.405.2 or Indian: (Asia_India) 3.14.720.3...
even whenever i go to official htc site to download rom..my serial is this HT9BDNW04917 so i got not suitable for your device...as i have buyied this defice from uk and its a o2 unlocked device
what to do please help..
Good day sir,
First of al some important informations, if you go to install the latest stock ROM 3.14 it's important to remove HSPL first. (use HSPL2_RUN.exe and select a spl value.)
secondly, fore the moment there is no o2 UK 3.14 stock ROM out. so you need to use the GoldCard technique for upgrading your ROM to a 3.14 version.
Take a look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=825397
I would personally recommend just loading HSPL3 and then just selecting on of the roms in the ROM Development section, as they usually integrate the new roms released from other providers with there rom.

It depends sir, even if you use a custom ROM build on stock ROM 3.14 it's recommended to install stock ROM 3.14 before installing this custom ROM's. And like mentioned before, stock ROM 3.14 isn't compatible with HSPL!

Can't i do that using hardspl..cause i have flashed my radio to 2.15..which is too not out yet for my O2 uk model...and this Gold card technique is a lil tough...also i read this..http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8989286&postcount=30

[Q] Is it possible to downgrade from SPL 3.03 to 2.08?

I have the 3.14 ROM with 3.03.000 SPL installed on my HD2
What I`m trying to do is Install NAND Android. But to do this I need HSPL 2.08.
I read through a lot of Forums indicating that this can only be done if you flash an older ROM to phone, hence overwriting the 3.03 SPL.
Tried downloading one of the older stock roms (1.66 and 1.48) and then attemped to flash via SD and through the .exe file directly.
Heres what happened:
----------------------
From the .exe file it boots to the tri color screen and then reaches the progress bar screen. However it sticks there and the errors out with a code : 294.
At first I thought it could be an incorrect ROM but I doublechecked it.
Through the SD method after the phone detects the .nbh file it comes back with a "28002 : Not allow" error message.
Have tried this with various types of Mem cards but no luck.
I then tried SSPL with 1.66 and 1.48 as the ROM and i got it to flash the ROM with no problems but the HSPL still sticks at 3.03. And thats expected since SSPL is like a one shot go at flashing a ROM different from your region.
Question : Since this isnt working, will a task 29 help in this case? From what I understand it formats the filesystem that holds the OS. By doing so, will I then be able to flash one of the older Roms so I can install HSPL 2.08? Not sure if this will actually help.
Not sure what exactly i`m doing wrong here.

simple, you're using the wrong rom. It isnt just any stock rom, its a stock rom that is correct for your phone you need. so for example if its locked to orange france, you would need the orange FRA rom, if the phone came from o2 uk its the WWE O2 UK rom you need.
dont be confused by a phone that has been sim unlocked, it would still be rom locked.
Hi.
Just did this yesterday.
All you have to do is check the version installed.
Mine was 3.14.479.2 which is Eastern Europe.
So i downloaded the 1.66.479.2 and flashed.this flashed the 1.48 spl..
So problem solved.
forgot to mention the 3.14 it the rom version.the rest is region specific : in my case 479.2 means eastern europe.This is important.
Fox example i tried to flash WWE:1.66.405.2 (France Bouygues) but no luck. 0% and then error.
same problem - may be we need HSPL for SPL 3.03.0000
I experienced the same problem. may be we need HSPL for 3.03, or it is already available - i dont know....
Can anybody reply / answer / help us all who are having 3.03 and want to run NAND Android on their device ? ? ?
Thanks in anticipation.

Problem can easily be solved by installing the correct previous stock rom.
For example if you have now the 3.14.405.x stock rom you need to use previous version 1.66.405.x Red numbers need to be the same.
You can download the stock rom's on the HTC webpage, ore take a look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623283

[Q] strange S/N and spl 3.03.000

Hi everybody,
i get a problem when i tried to flash my second HD2, flashed the first one without problems
i searched for spl 3.03 and i found other threads saying that we have to flash with stock ROM but the serial number doesn't match with the mskip list...
S/N is : HT01KNW03882 is there anyone who can tell me it 's from where ?
i bought it to a guy who get it with a contract it's under Orange french ROM and i'm in france so i get this french ROM:Leo_HTC_FRA_1.43.406.2_Radio_Signed_15.26.50.07U_2.04.50.22_2
but i get this message error during a sd card method (card was formatted in FAT32), after showing me the bootloader screen, in the grey back :00028002
Not allow
and then it returns in the tri color screen
sorry for the bad english and thanks in advance
Hello sir, honestly it isn't complicated.
You mention that it is a device who came from a contract under Orange.
So it is a Orange branded device.
So conclusion; you need this ROM: RUU_Leo_S_Orange_FR-B2B_3.14.73.2 Download!
And for your info; I have verified it with your S/N
thanks for reply !
this is the ROM i had already and the only one i can get from HTC whith the S/N you'r right but i tried that and it do not change spl
i just flashed it now with SSPL and a 1.43 french stock ROM but i just want HSPL on it

Mate, Im confused..
You said you have that rom installed/flashed but didnt change the SPL?
As I know, the stock rom version 3.14 contains SPL 3.03.0000. So, your hd2 should have had that spl now.
Try to check again in case you missed something.
Also please keep in mind that SPL 3.03.0000 are not compatible with HSPL at the moment. It will cause you trouble if you install HSPL over SPL 3.03
Cheers

First of all I'm confused, If you already have this ROM; way your question about that you card find your stock ROM based on your S/N???
And secondly, way would you install stock ROM over SSPL??? Just use the normal installation proses. But in case you have HSPL on your device, remove it first. (HSPL isn't compatible with stock ROM 3.14)
was afraid when i saw that no S/N was like mine and i want HSPL because it's easy and i use it since Trinity without any probs.
flashed with SSPL because i really don't like Orange's ROM
If i understand correctly, you flashed with sspl and can't go back to hspl even after going back to stock rom. Its very easy to solve but difficult to find the required rom. All you have to do is download different kinds or should i say download an older version of the orange stock rom and install it on your device. That should solve your proplem, at least that how i was able to solve mine.

hehe, and that little piece of info is the cause of confisuion this mildly amusing thread,, , you see the only orange rom that has been released by HTC directly is the 3.14, (there is an earlier orange FR rom about, but i remember lots of people hunting high and low last summer for it) but the OP wants to downgrade to apply hspl.
@OP - give the one in post 2 a try HERE.

I've flashed this phone at least two dozen times already between the various cooked WM and Android ROMs. I reverted to a Telstra factory ROM via SD card to restore the original SPL, and now I can't seem to get a one of these to take.
What did I do wrong?
you need hspl to install any rom except telstra roms.
You said it yourself "I reverted to a Telstra factory ROM via SD card to restore the original SPL"
so hspl is gone.

Ah. Ok, I was under the mistaken impression that one of the 'official' ROMs did not require HSPL. Thanks!
Nah, rom locked covers everything. Someone with an unbranded couldn't flash telstra rom either.
