Default Flashing through SD

Hi all,

I just my very first PDA a HTC 3300. The thing is it has a portuguese ROM and I would like to install a English ROM. It is CID/Network locked and i tried flashing it via the SD method but with out results.

When I do the bootloader sequence I get a white screen saying checking SD contents and then it goes straight to the 3 colored screen not showing me the screen that is in the wiki site. Can anyone help me with this beginners problem.

Thanks a lot,
FreakyFreak

Thanks. I did just that. It was quick and easy. And I've already flashed my device with the original HTC ROM. But I don't like it that much. Do you have any suggestion on which one to flash. I don't want any useless programs and the gps programs to be intalled. I got my own gsp prog that I want to use.

Thanks,
FreakyFreak

Didn't I read somewhere that Dopod will lock the pda again? Could you clear this for me.

Thanks,

has any one got the solution to that...? a have O2 Orbit that boots only to the HTC logo with the ROM version...IPL.....and SPL I`v tried to flash from the memory card but it does exactly the same as above. Can someone give a solution coz I`v tried with a working "Artemis" (i don`t know if it is CID/locked) but it is a working device,and the result is exactly the same,it shows "checking SD contents" and goes to the colored boot screen.

you will not be able to flash from sd card.
to flash from sd card you need a specific service card. when this card is inserted, you can flash from the card.
with uspl, flashing from sd card is not supported.
