Please.... Step By Step Guide : XDAII ROM UpGrade - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Because i am really confused about previous step already too much, now i would like to ask you guys kindly what is the step by step guide to upgrading XDAII.
1. How to modified the Extended Rom? I would like to modified the existing 1.60.36WWE, but cant even get in using ER2003EDIT. :roll:
2. Can i only upgrade the OS ROM? If i don't wanna upgrade the Radio and Extended ROM. How do i do this? Is it only simple erase those two files and click the HimaUpgradeUt? :roll:
3. How to DUMP the whole thing to an SD Card? But i dont wanna using serial cable. I already see the previous THREAD, but i dunno how to use the HyperTerminal in the Windows XP.
Thanks in advance, Masters....

Can anyone help upgrading ROM on O2 ENG XDA??

I have recently asked a couple of questions on how to upgrade my ROM on my current O2 XDA. (I was trying to unlock it but could not use the unlock pgm because the ROM version was not current)
I have had a few excellent responses. But not being to computer literate, particularly on upgrading my ROM. I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction. Does anyone know where to obtain a step by step guide to updating the ROM. Also I had asked about safeguarding my existing ROM until the upgrade was successful. Can someone help by answering the following?
I have downloaded the relevant versions of ROM to apply
1) How do I back up my current ROM so that I can re-apply in the event of a problem, i.e. is it possible to back it up to SD and also on my desktop?
2) Is it possible to copy the new ROM you wish to apply to SD/MMC card and then apply it?
3) What is the differences between radio versions I here so much spoke about it and don’t understand this?
Any responses would be very appreciated, hopefully I’ll get my answer in the one go or I can open the relevant thread. Thanks in advance and a merry xmas to you all.
Ok first thing you want to do is to read these three pages:
http://www.xda-developers.com/rom/
http://www.xda-developers.com/XDArit/
http://www.xda-developers.com/bootloader/
They should give you a reasonable understanding of whats involved to update your ROM.
1) The bootloader page covers backing up your current ROM
2) Yes you can copy it to SD/MMC (this is safer than using cradle anyway..) this is covered on XDArit page
3) Unless you are experiencing problems with your current radio stack most people will advise against upgrading it.. to upgrade your OS you only need the CE Rom. These can be made at Yorch's kitchen: http://kitchen.romanweb.com/kitchen/index.php then use XDArit/Osimage to copy it to your SD card.

Introduction for a Beginner?

Hello!
I'm new to the PDA-Modding scene.
And I've got several questions.
I updated my Asus MyPal A626 to Windows Mobile 6. It is an official Update.
Now I want to modify my ROM a bit. Don't panic! I'm a very experienced PC user. I did the same stuff with cell phones before. So I now, what I do
But before i can begin I've got some questions:
1. The official Update consists of 3 Files:
update.dat, Update.img and Upgrade Tool.exe
I used this tool (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=284379&highlight=asus) with update.img and it made 2 additional files from it. What are these files for? And how can I modify the Filesystem and so on?
2. Is it possible to read the current ROM? A backup wouldn't be the worst idea berfore playing with selfmade-ROMs.
3. And what if everything goes wrong? Is there a way to program this backup back into the Rom?
PS: Sorry for my crappy english I'm from Germany
Thank you!

wm6-imate jamin

hi.i want to upgrade my imate jamin to wm6..i have the latest rom version,but i didn t reach to upgrade to wm6,i trid hard but i always get disconected from my windows sync,imate support told me yhat i can t upgrade my jamin ro wm6,but here in xda i heard that there is a way to do it..pks pks help..i need to know howstep by step ,if anyone can help me pls.co i/m tired trying ...without succes,,thanks..
well of course imate will tell u that!!!
Next time you post, tell people the steps u have tried, saves us writing a whole heap of ****e like below, prob why no one has answered u, and do search b4 post
goto the prophet section on main home page there are all the tools needed and guides to help you. Spend some time reading and follow the instructions or u will brick your phone.
Here are a few pointers:
Read the wiki section on prohpet roms.
check if ur jamin is G3 or G4 - very important!!!!!!!!!!!
before flashing, unplug all other usb devices from ur pc, btw u cannot flash if u are using windows vista, so use a pc with XP!
i sugguest putting on Jesterz AKU 2.2 first (in prophet section) - then hard reset.
If that fails and get connection error, try another usb port, i had to try 3 out of my 4 before it worked for me, dont ask me why.
Download hardspl and follow the guide!! do it wrong and u brick ur fone!!
enter in boot loader ur SPL should read like my signature, (G3 or G4)if it doesnt then hardspl did not work, do it again.
Download the wm6.1 of ur choice, look at Vincents one, i like them and pretty stable! There are a lot of older roms out there, so look around. I downloaded 5 and in the process of testing 2nd one to find one i like, see my sig.
If u fail, dont give up, try again and keep trying, but follow the guides and wiki and u will be fine.
remember, pppppp, prior preparation prevents piss poor performance

No search! Impossible. Theres a whole forum dedicated to flashing including WM 6.5. Looking through that forum there is even a sticky for noobs on flashing. I won't even post the link.
Heres the link to flashing! Start with this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550540
But seriously, I'm not trying to give you a hard time, its just that if you couldn't find that forum you probably shouldnt be trying to flash a ROM.
Welcome to forums
Read deeply the Wiki (Rhodium)
And here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550540
Then select your desired 6.5 ROM and enjoy!

Hmmm...I smell a troll. Managed to find XDA forums to ask about ROMs but can't understand the concept of searching? Nah, I don't buy it, just a kid playing around.

Getting WM 6.5 shouldn't be this hard, SOS - I need help!
I'm having the same problem. . . . . I have flash my T-Mobile TP2 by following all the instructions posted by mskip. I have the multi color screen (red, green, blue white) with the following information:
RHOD210 32 SS- BC
SPL-0.85 OlinNex
MicroP(LED) 0x0A
MicroP(KEY) 0x04
TURBO HW/TURBO SW
TP MFG DATA
505,527 807, 853
811,196 199,193
203,860 Calibrated
So my TP2 is flashed. . . . My phone still says 6.1 when re-started.
Now What? I know people are going to say download a rom from the Rhodium forms. . . . I have about 20 downloaded to my computer.
My question is how in the HELL do you put window' mobile 6.5 in the the TP2? I have read thru many threads however no one address the most simple of questions or perhaps I'm just not understanding a crital step in the update process.
Where do you find the rom to install wm 6.5? And how to get the rom on to the phone? Oh and please don't point to [Resources] Flashing your First GSM Rhodium Rom (For Noobs) I have read that about 100 times.
If I find the correct rom, then what?
Is there a drag and drop process that I'm missing or do I have to reformat a file to RUU,NBH or EXE or somthing.
I have downloaded the CustomRUU, Rhodium-HardSPL and every version of wm 6.5 manilla type file I can find however I can't find the simple rom to upgrade from 6.1 to 6.5
I'm so confused and fustratiated that I am going to sell my TP2 and go back to the EASY iPhone (Jail Breaking was soo easy) or Blackberry Bold.
Please HELP. . . . I don't want to have to junk a phone that I want to keep
so youve had the hardSPL part already done i see.
now pick a rom and open that zip or rar file
in there are two files, drag and drop them on your desktop
now connect your phone with activesync or devicecentre to your computer
and make sure your phone is and stays connected
now double click on the RUU file from within the zip/rar file and follow the on-screen directions.
thats it.
hope this was helpfull
OK, I have followed your intruction to the letter and I have made progress. . . . . however I while following to prompts on the program (The Update Utility) I got the following error message:
ERROR [240]: file open
The Update Utility can not open the requested field.
Please check your Update Utility.
And on another attempt I got the to the end and nothing happend.
The last prompt said the following:
PDA PHONE UPDATE UTILITY 3.27.4.3
Verify that you want to update the Rom version
From
Image version:
To
Image Version: 0.85.OliNex
Click next to proceed: Click Cancel to quit.
. . . . I hit the next button and nothing happens. I still have WM 6.1
What am I doing wrong or am I missing a crital step?
Seems like I need the program to recognize the rom some how or mabe I'm way off.
I really do appreciate your help!
If you are using the CustomRUU.exe that comes with HardSPL, you cannot flash ROMs with it. That CustomRUU.exe is specially made for flashing HardSPL, and won't flash other stuff.
Try downloading this ROM (it's the one I use on my device, it's in my signature), and once it's downloaded, extract it using 7-zip/Universal Extractor/WinRAR or any other RAR unizipping utility. Ensure the directory that you extract the RAR file to has no other .NBH files in it. Now, run CustomRUU.exe (the one that comes in the RAR file) and follow the directions. Keep in mind that when it says what Image Version you are updating to in CustomRUU.exe, it should NOT say 0.85.OliNex.
Now, if that still doesn't work, try transferring RHODIMG.nbh to any MicroSD card (ensure it's formatted to FAT32), putting the microSD card back into the device, and manually go into the bootloader (Hold Volume-Down and the Power button). Follow the instructions, flash the ROM, soft reset (or yank out the battery) when it's completely finished, and congratulations, you're running Windows Mobile 6.5!
Hi fellas:
I just bot a used Touch Pro 2 with 6.1 for the wife for xmus.
Is it possible to use the HTC Rom that is listed on the EU site on a US HTC and then try to put it on Roger's 3G/Edge in Canada?
Thanks!
ok...I guess not
Is there another ROM that I would have better luck with?
My carrier (Rogers Canada) says that the 3G I have will not work on their network because it is T-Mobilized. The Edge Network is working (slow) and now I'm worried that this may never work on 3G here.
I read there is a vanilla "unlocked" 6.5 ROM here. Is that what I should be shooting for?
If you hardspl your device then you can put any rom on it that you want. Search, read and learn in the rom section.
From what i understand is that you bought a Touch pro 2 with T-mobile rom installed. So what you need to do is look in the rom section and read the flashing for noobs guide. Then pick a rom and flash. I think you will like the |R|6.5.3|ROM|WWE| ★ EnergyROM "Phoenix 2" 28011/21885 ★Dec 25★ Sense 2.1/Titanium. After you've flashed your T-mobile rom will be gone. Good luck

Xda exec (couple newbe questions)

Hi all!
Glad to found this forum, I just got my Xda Exac 4G 64Mb from O2 (sim free by default)
I've spent lat 3h reading this forum but most of tutorials are outdated, so i have some suestion just to make thimgs clear for me.
1. Do i need to unlock my phone first with "HTC_Uni_Unlock_v1" or other apps (if other please give a name and link) before falshing new rom
2. Do i need to use some kind of loader or included installer will do all the job (i know i need to go to bootloader mode)
3. How safe it is?
4. How can i backup my orginal rom in case i would like to go back to orginal one, or where i can download orginal o2 rom?
5. Is device getting power from usb durning flashing? I dont know how long this battery will last I dont want power lose durning flashing.
6. Tomal or Luca? Which one will be better for me?
7. Where in Ireland i can get memory upgreade?
Thanks for all the answers Cheers
Welcome to forums
here all you need yo know for flashing:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=567017
It is 100% safe if you follow instructions
Charge your battery to 100% before flashing and take out sim card and sd card
I recommend Tomal, but it´s up to you, depending on what you want from a ROM
Read, Search, Respect and Enjoy!
so just run the instaler and follow info on the screen? no need for SuperCID? or maybe installer will set device to SuperCID by it self?
what i want from a rom? well... a nice look, to be stable and fast, and have nice functions
ok since noone really wants to answer my questions i did update myself..
here's what i learn (maybe someone will need this)
you dont need to unlock your device if it's sim free
you need to have all the files you want to update in one folder
all you need to do is run ROMUpgradeUt.exe and follow info on the screen
for me whole procedure took 2-3 min
thats it ....
