Artemis ROM 1.13

[astrodemoniac]

Hi all,

I am trying to upgrade to 1.13 with the RRU art_tmouk_11311001_024990_wwe_ship.exe available from the Wiki but I get "Invalid Vender ID"

The reason I want to upgrade is because I bought the device in Geneva Switzerland and it comes in French. I need the device in English.

Can anyone help me get around this please? if at all possible? It would be very much appreciated as I already talked to their support dept and they say it is not possible.

Cheers

BAD NEWS!!!

I just couldnt wait any longer to get past CID lock, so I unlocked at http://www.imei-check.co.uk/
(removes SIM/NETWORK LOCK - use any provider, removes CID lock - flash any firmware)

costs: 30,68 euros.

good news: cid unlocked, upgrade to any rom now possible!

bad news: WLAN DOES NOT WORK !!!

your anger is understandable..., but its not the language they lock, but the rom provider specifics. just by the way, software is licenced to the hardware sold with( parallel to pc & windows ) ....so this is how you should see this. in most cases you will even lose warranty by cid unlocking.

True, but I bought the device HTC branded, on its own. It should be completely unlocked. Completely. This is so inconvenient, of well, do you guys think they will release more languages in future?
