All ok guys. Its done!!!
i followed all the above instructions but with one difference.
No clicdiag.zip copied in the sd card. Only after booting the phone in Hboot mode with the vol-down and power button, i pushed the back button and it took the phone in in usb fastboot mode. After that i plugged the phone via usb cable to the pc and executed the downloaded ''RUU_Click_HTC_WWE_1.67.405.6_WWE_release_signed_NoDriver.exe'' from the pc. After that the update started and the phone became flashed!!!
Now the phone has all the availble European languages to select.
Hope this will help other trying to flash their Tattoo's

[HOWTO] Create a GoldCard - Bypassing the RUU/SPL CID check to Root/Downgrade If you are stuck on a ROM you don't like (Orange UK/asian carrier etc.) you can use this howto to create a goldcard to bypass the CID checks so you can downgrade and root your HTC Tattoo.
01. Download QMAT 5.06 here
It’s a demo version so will only run for 10 minutes.
02. Format your SD card to FAT32. Please keep in mind some brands of SD cards do not work.
03. Install Android SDK. Use adb to run this command: adb shell cat /sys/class/mmc_host/mmc1/mmc1:*/cid
04. Copy the SD card cid code displayed after the adb command.
05. Start Qmat and Click on Cyptoanalysis Tools > Crypto Toolbox.
06. Look at the bottom, there is a text box (beside the “Reverse String” button) enter the SD card cid code you got earlier.
Click on the “Reverse String” button, the result is reversed…
Example: 532600bd227d9c0347329407514d5402
07. Copy the reversed SD card cid code.
08. Go to QMAT goldcard site here (Free G1 goldcard generation !) to generate your goldcard (yes it says for G1 but works for our HTC Tattoo too).
09. Enter your email. For the correct SD card cid code, you need to replace the first 2 characters to 00.
Example: From “532600bd227d9c0347329407514d5402” to “002600bd227d9c0347329407514d5402”.
Replacing is not essential and you may try it if not replacing does not work for you.
10. Click Continue and you will receive the goldcard.img in .zip format in your email.
11. Go to your email, download the zip file and save it to a directory and unzip it to goldcard.img
12. Download HxD Hex Editor from here
13. Install and launch HxD Hex Editor program. (make sure you use "Run as Administrator" under Vista and win 7)
14. Go to Extra tab > Open Disk. Under Physical disk not Logical one, select Removable Disk (Must be your SD card), uncheck “Open as Readonly), click OK.
15. Go to Extra again, Open Disk Image, open up goldcard.img which you’ve saved/unzipped earlier.
Now, you should have two tabs, one is your removable disk, the other is goldcard.img. Press OK when prompted for “Sector Size” 512 (Hard disks/Floppy disks), click OK.
16. Click on goldcard.img tab. Go to Edit tab > Select All, edit tab again > copy.
17. Click on the “removable disk” tab. Select offset 00000000 till offset 00000170 (including the 00000170 line), click on Edit tab and then Paste Write.
18. Click on File > Save. now you can exit the program.
19. Download HTC Tattoo ROM (RapidShare: 1-CLICK Web hosting - Easy Filehosting)
20 . Rename it to CLICIMG.zip and copy to root of your MicroSD.
21. Reboot your phone holding power and volume down buttons with this SD Card (now GoldCard) inside and should bypass CID error.
22. It should now load ROM and start flashing. Do not unplug the phone or touch it until it fully finishes flashing it took 10 minutes for me.
Done.

Which code?Easiest way is to enter the code and flash the rom.
too but it was not working because the ROM I already had on device was higher version than 1.67.405.6I tried running RUU Click HTC WWE 1.67.405.6 WWE release signed NoDriver.exe7
Easiest way is to enter the code and flash the rom.
Easiest way is to enter the code and flash the rom.
I'm not able to unlock this phone!!
In the first step I bought the unlock code, the phone says ok but the sim isn't initialized.
In the second stem I have upgraded the rom with RUU Click HTC WWE 1.67.405.6 WWE release signed NoDriver.exe directly from windows with one orange sim and the debug mode. Now I have entered another time the unlock code but the problem it's always the same, the sim isn't initialized and after every roboot I have to enter the serial code.
In the thirt step I have made the gold card. I have tried with five sd cards, sandisk and kingstone. I have tried ranaming in clicimg.zip and clicdiag.zip but I have always error!
What can I do? I'm the only one unable the unlock this phone??!!
Hello. I followed the steps as closely as I could; however, I am using Ubuntu.
I used gparted to format the MicroSD card, and a program called ImageWriter to write the goldcard.img. The part I am stuck at is booting the device. Note, the work-a-round that some of you have offered to directly call the exe file doesn't work in wine so I have to get the phone to load it.
So I copied the CLICDIAG.zip to the MicroSD card, inserted the card into the phone, and then booted the phone (down volume + power).
HBOOT starts, a progress bar is at the top right hand screen.
It does the following:
* SD Checking...
* Loading ... [CLICDIAG.zip]
After progress bar reaches 100%
* Checking ...[CLICDIAG.zip]
Then it prints out something really quick (can't read it) and then goes back to the main HBOOT screen.
Any idea what might be going wrong?
I did this at first, but like other poster's I got the error about not finding the CLICDIAG.zip.This means gold card is successfully created. You have to use CLICIMG.zip name not CLICDIAG.zip. Try that and let us know.
