great thread!
you know what would make it perfect is a "live" (updated) list of the official stock roms released from each carrier so that people have a sure-fire means to revert to stock if they decide this is not gonna work out. i think first-timers will be reassured knowing the stock roms are easily found... |
Invalid Vendor ID
I must be missing something. I have the Verizon xv6800 and this is my first try at flashing (thanks for the writeup). When I get to step 4, the RUU starts, I hear the beeps, the phone blanks out for a moment, both the PC and phone show 0% - then it finally comes back and says "invalid vendor ID" - so no 3.16 ROM and no custom ROM. What should I try to get the 3.16 loaded? Thanks is advance

Hello,
When it says in this guide 7. Now you'll need to run a Rom Update Utility (RUU). Some of the custom roms come as executables, so all you have to do is run them. Others are just a single file that ends in .nbh. For those you will need a RUU. >>> a. Click here to download an empty RUU >>> b. Copy the .nbh file of your custom rom into the RUU folder >>> c. Make sure there is only one .nbh file in the folder >>> d. Double click RomUpdateUtility.exe to begin the update When I try to download the file it wont let me, I looked at the URL on internet explorer and it says: ftp://up.ppcgeeks....n/roms/RUU.rar Im missing some stuff, someone please help me, I want to upgrade rom today :(!!!!! |

Request
Hey guys,
I am really glad that this thread has helped all the newbies out there. That makes me happy. I would ask, and this is probably part of the learning curve too, that you not PM me with installation questions. That is why I created this thread. Chances are that if you post in here, you're likely to get answers from the community much faster than I am sometimes able to provide. Plus your questions and then the answers that follow could assist others too. Thanks alot and have a GREAT flashing day!! O:) |
Sigh...
OK, I thought I would give this a try since there was a First Timers guide and all. I guess I have first timers problems...
I got my Mogul when it first came out, before it hit the stores. When it hit the stores I updated the ROM via the RUU program, which worked fine even though I was on Vista. As of this morning I was on the latest ROM/RUU from the HTC web site. No problems... Following these intructions, I got the information from #1 & #2. Since I have a stock Sprint ROM, I skipped #3 as it describes. Now all my problems are in #4. When I ran it is started then stopped saying that there were communication problems. The mogul was in the bootloader. I started again, and it went for a while, then errored out suggesting that I follow some instructions to pull out the battery, etc. I did that but it lost communication again. At this point the boot loader says TITA100 MFG / SPL-2.03.1000 / CPLD-9. Now when I run the RUU I get error 328. Restared it with XP compat but no difference. Searching the forums brought up a reference to this post (http://www.modaco.com/content/Window...ltimate-guide/). It didn't make sense to me since I have already had success with Vista, but I followed it anyway. Now the RUU does not error but it did hang at 0% for the last few hours. Now what? |

Try unplugging your phone and then rebooting the computer. Turn off your phone and then back on. This should put you back into the bootloader screen (tri-color). I have noticed that Vista can get picky sometimes and just needs a reboot. I have only used Vista for all my flashes. And only once did I absolutely have to reboot it. But that did solve the problem. Hope this helps you. |

Once you get 1.06 SPL Bootloader installed either run the Unofficial Sprint 3.16 release again. Or install an official carrier released rom (2.09/2.17). |
