Hi All,
I need an Italian Official VOX ROM or instruction how-to flash unsigned ROM.
Please note that I have flashed a wrong ROM and Activesync does not work, I can access only though bootloader.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks

Here is something you could try : http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_SDCardFlashing
Try naming the VOXIMG.nbh instead of HERMIMG.nbh.
but I really don't know if this can work. most likely not in fact since I haven't seen it described for the vox on these forums..
Sorry I have really no experience in bricked devices. Well I bricked mine several times but usb connection still worked through bootloader, so I could start ruu updater when in bootloader mode and it worked fine.

I have bricked my Vox making custom roms, but have found that even though i can get into the bootloader and run up the RUU updater, every time i go to flash a rom i get errors saying wrong VendorID etc... this is because the rom i flashed had different ID's to the original HTC ROMS. Maybe you are signing them different to me?
Please help! :(

Please help! :(
i`ve made the same mistake (flashed a ROM cooked by me) ... but prior to flash my phone i was lucky enough to use USPL 1.16 to permanently flash my SPL to 1.16 (i`ve used both archives Vox USPL-CID BYPASS.zip and Vox-USPL-RUU.zip) instead of 1.27 (original, vendor locked).
On the XDA ftp is a italian ROM if i`m not mistaking, did you try it ?
try this ... i`m not sure it will work.
Make sure you have disabled the USB connection in ActiveSync:
File --> Connection settings --> uncheck "allow USB connections"
1. get into booloader mode
2. connect with mtty
3. write password BsaD5SeoA
4. try to run the USPL 1.16 now ... (i`m just guessing)
if it doens`t work reset the phone and repeat step 1. and 2. and continue with:
3. write password BsaD5SeoA after that ruurun 0
4. try to run the USPL 1.16 now ... (i`m just guessing)
alternatively instead of USPL you can try to run the italian rom from the ftp.
i`ve managed to save my phone doing steps 1, 2, and 3 (not sure which one worked) from above and then flashed with ARA ROM ... but keep in mind my SPL was 1.16.
hope this helps

My intention was just to ask if a backup of my original HTC VOX (unbranded) could help...sorry...next time I will not do the same mistake.:confused:

Hi,
unfortunately this does not help because my VOX is CID locked “g_cKeyCardSecurityLevel = FF” and Activesync does not work, for this reason I’m not able to flash any unsigned rom.
My SPL is 1.27.
I have tried to flash 1.16 but the procedure does not work.
It is a way to CID unlock my VOX from bootloader?
Can anyone cook a signed Italian ROM?
Thanks.

If you would to help us you can try to cook a signed rom from the dump in ftp://xda:xda@ftp.xda-developers.com...martphone/Vox/ (file name: s710 rom 1.15.408.2 (italian + uk eng + us eng).rar) or give to us instructions how to do it.
Thanks for your help.

i tried the method posted a while back with no positive results :(.... yet :confused:
I was just wondering, i looked at the bootloader and it says Vox SPL 1.15 so this is the version i am using and it doesnt let me flash another vendor id rom...

Can you tell me how it works out?? I am hesitant to send mine to HTC (i had to import this phone) which will mean i have to pay heaps for shipping... and even then i dont expect them to replace it because the last rom i flashed had a different splash screen (silly me :() this will be obvious to them and therefore wont replace mine because i tampered with the rom.

I was wondering if you have to unlock del SPL to flash the new official rom...I think you have to..but in this case don't we have to void the warranty even with their official ROM?
Or maybe with a original HTC s710 (unbranded) this is not necessary because all the signature in the old and in the new rom are identical???
Where am i wrong?
alllof

It is not necessary if your Vox is an original HTC s710 (unbranded).

But for flashing it (even if it is unbranded) with the DOC's NEW GUAVA ROM...?
If yes is because they have different signatures?
It's not possibile to change and adapt the ROM signature in the one you want to flash so that it is the same of the phone...so it will be unecessary to unlock the SPL and we will not void warranties cause it will be possible (with a previously made backup) turn back to the original ROM.
Am i wrong again ?

if you flash an original ROM there is no need to USPL, but if you wanna flash NewGuava ROM then, yes, you need to USPL.
if it was possible then there was no point in spending time and effort to make USPL (with all the risks that brings), so, no it`s not possible (yet).

Hi All!
Can You help me?
I live in Russia and bought my HTC S710 there with Russian rom. But I need Italian,French,Spanish,Norwegian,Swedish,Finish,Du tch and Danish ROMs. The HTC web site (http://member.htc.com) displayed only Russian ROM for me.
Please tell me where can I find official ROMs for such languages?
