  • Huawei E398 (Vodafone K5005) firmware problem

    Hi!

    I don't know if I'm right here with my problem, but it seems I have a very specific problem and nobody in another forum could help me so far.

    I recently bought a Vodafone K5005 stick and wanted to flash it to be a Telekom Speedstick, or a E398, so that I can use it with my router and that it would support more LTE frequencies. This firmware flashing is described in my forums, so I thought it would be easy and work fine.

    So I started the firmware-update and it ran normally, I also had to enter the firmware-flash-code, which I have. But then suddenly an error occurred and the firmware-update aborted.

    When I try to update the firmware now I just get the error code 13, and as the current version it just says "unknown".

    I can update the dashboard, that UTPS file, though. Maybe this was also a mistake, because now the stick, obviously, has no more drivers or anything on it. When I try to install it on a new computer I need to install the drivers from somewhere else, they are not taken from the stick.

    Is there any chance I can still flash the firmware and get the stick working again? Right now it is not really recogniced by any program.
    I also tried it with the dc-unlocker software, but it never finds the modem, altough it is kind of installed.

    I really hope I can fix this! Thanks in advance!

    Can you be clear on firmware version you used?
    From 11.335.21.20.11 to ?
    You have any chanche to restore back the stick if you can find the original version firmware (customized vodafone)
    You can try with the non-customized version 11.335.27.00.000

    However your stick seem to be recoverable
    Try it and post here your results

          Hallo,
          aus deinem Screenshot sehe ich das du deutsch sprichst.
          Ich habe das bleiche Problem gehabt und habe lange nach einem Programm
          gesucht um Ihn zu reparieren.
          Es hat schließlich mit dem Huawei Modem Universal Flasher 1.10 funktioniert.
          Du benötigst nur den Universal Flasher und eine 398 Firmware.exe.
          Im Flasher den Flashmode 'Resurrect Mode' einstellen und flashen.
          Man braucht noch nicht mal einen Code zum Flashen.
          Der Flasher zerlegt die Firmware.exe und stellt die Firmware im Stick wieder her.
          Super Tool.

          Gruß Peter

              This firmware is for K5005 (E398) to restore back in the original Vodafone condition.
