Hello,
I really want to upgrate to WM6 as soon as possible. My phone operator offer me some services (emails, web, messenger) only if I use the prvided settings and applications.
If I upgrade to WM6 and things don't work, is going back to factory state as simple to flashing HTC WM5 + EXT ROM ?
Jean
I was wondering the same thing: I would like to upgrade to WM6, but not without having a backup of the WM5 rom supplied by the Wireless Network Operator.
I searched the forum on how to backup the rom, but was unable to find any usable information. Anybody would like to help us out?
you can't back it up in that way.
just download one of the wm5 roms posted here.
1. The original WM5 ROM for the s620 is available. It's out there online if you do a little searching. It used to be hosted here. I ran it on my Dash for months before going to WM6.
2. HTC is going to be releasing the WM6 update soon. This will be a MUCH better firmware than T-Mobile's. Also, if you wait for it, you won't have to worry about unlocking or anything.
-Mc
p.s. Smartphones don't have an Extended ROM.
alright thanks guys, I'll just wait till the official HTC release, I also found the wm5 roms, so I should be all set.
I was able to find an unbranded rom (not sure if it the latest... which is the latest French version ?) but if smart phones doesn't contain ext rom, where are the customizations ?
My french phone operator is Ten Mobile. I think it will be tricky to find that particular rom.
wm5 rom...
Can someone email me a link or email me the original wm5 rom for the htc s620 and not the t-mobile dash version?
TIA
s620 wm6 rom

Thanks

Now that the official WM6 upgrade has been released for the D810, does anyone have any updated information as to whether it will be released for the P3600 and if so, what time frame?
I don't believe HTC has agreed to release it. Why don't you just flash hard-spl and a nospl version of it posted here?

I'm just being cautious. I'm on T-Mobile USA and developed SMS sending problems with the official WWE GPS upgrade, so I'm now hesitant to try a ROM not intended for my P3600. Perhaps if someone on T-Mobile USA has successfully used the D810 WM6 ROM, I'd be willing to take a chance. I sure would like HTML capable email!
Their excuse...
Hello Sir,
The network partner from HTC did not request the upgrade for the Windows mobile 6 for the P3600, that's why unfortunately the HTC P3600 will not have this upgrade.
Thank you for your enquiry, Should you have any other problem, please do not hesitate to call us. Your Local number can be found at http://www.europe.htc.com/support/csbyphone.html

You just need a setup cab file for t-mobile's settings here in the US. I'm on cingular so I don't have one off hand, but let me search for ya...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=42298&d=1182761296
I think that's what you'll need... And of course you can always flash back to your original wm5 rom if needed...

Thank you, but all the settings are correct and everthing else (MMS, EMail, Internet, etc) works. The only setting I've found for SMS is the Service Center Number and that's correct. Receiving SMS works and sending works from some some areas - just not where I live.
So installing hard SPL and then flashing the non SPL ROM is all that's required to update to the D810 WM6 upgrade?
Yes, however after reading some of the posts here I question if the non-spl roms posted are in fact, non-spl roms. I will make a proper safe version of this update to flash when I get home in about an hour or so and post it up...
There are 2 others posted, but I don't know that they are safe as there were actually two spl's in the release and it's possible the posters only removed 1.

Thank you, that would be nice for all those P3600 owners that are getting into flashing trouble.
Any news?
Did anyone make a safe WM6 upgrade for p3600 yet?
read the posts! there are many wm6 roms overhere.
Hey,
does anyone know if its possible to upgrade HTC 3400 to windows mobile 6.0.
Thanks
NO..not possible as of now
P3400 WM6
When it was still called Crossbow,it wasnt confined to specific PDas. Whatever happened to those kinds of ROMS anyway? All that mattered was the hardware,of which the P3400 has. When I saw it at the expos it was running WM6 (not to mention Wi-fi,but thats another story). I figured the Chinese would have come up with it by now. They dont play around.
if you find wwe firmware for Gene wm6 will be during 2 week

HTC South Africa once sent me an email saying the upgrade would be out 12th August. Now they dont know when.
As far as I understand, HTC/Dopod planned to launch the new P3400-based model, named KunLun, in August. http://it.qihoo.com/avphto/tech008.html
If nothing goes wrong, it should be available quite soon. Maybe the official WM 6.0 upgrade will be available to Gene owners when KunLun is released. I hope that it will leak before that ;-)
I have not seen in China listed on any news kunlun
Any luck on this guys ?... m waiting for Wm6 since 3 months now
Hi, Any updations on this???? do have any new ROM to update WM5 to WM6

This ROM that this for download in http://www.sendspace.com/file/HTC same Rom upgrade.exe and for HTC 3400, functions correctly?
It runs better than the factory fitted.
wow this is new to me.
im also using HTC 3400 and i hope someday they will come up for an upgrade.
thanks for this very imformative information
I found WM6.0
I found WM6.0 but it is for DOPOD / HTC U1000 So i don't know whether it will work for P3400 or not I don't want to take risk as I don't have WM5 or any backup once i get some restoring mechanism i will try to upgrade it
Interested may see following link:
http://www.asia.htc.com/asia/event/WM6/in/index.html
I downloaded right now the WWE version, but still working in my office, presumably until late night... :-((
So, please, who can quickly flash the new rom, share his/her first impressions with us!
(Especially: which OS it uses, what HTC-made utilities have been put in it, are there any new features comparing to the official HTC Asia-Dopod WM6 rom?, etc.)
Thanks!
I second this request. I'm quite decided to install Pdaviet Black&Blue 4.2, after my good experience with 4.0, but I'm curious to know about this, and these are localized too
I have a question :
if , after tried wm6 official HTC ROM , i decide to revert back to wm5 official Rom how can i do this ?
Why Htc haven't provided the wm5 ROM for going back if desired ?
It's pretty the same as WM5 but then WM6. After first boot it installs the same utils as it would in WM5 like TomTom, QuickGPS etc. (Also the ugly green dailer )
Windows Mobile 6 Professional 5.2.1620 (Build 18125.0.4.2)
IPL 3.13.0001
SPL 3.13.0000
GSM 02.94.90
OS 3.13.0.0
that is terrible!!!!!
i hope tom finished his 4.2 version soon
Pretty much the same as the asia one but with Office 2007 and cleaner.
Its clean, stable, fast and once again CLEAN!! install what you like.
Im sticking to this, you also know its been tested better than the home cooked, hats off to the guys but I dont like junk.
i reinstall the touch 2.1 ( really i'm waiting b&b4.2 ) after ... 12 minutes.
So,its only localized ... and no extra software.
i prefer touch 2.1 or B&B 4.1
By
I think it´s more of the same stuff from HTC, no inovations, unlike the name of this company.
What i´m really curious to see is the new Rom from Tom.
Cheers
Whoa!! The time to fix for the GPS is much improved! I'll have to test it more tomorrow, but it could be as fast as the TyTN II now!! That is AWESOME!
I'm going to say I like the dopod version more. This one doesn't have Audio Manager or Voice Command installed. I don't see a "lock screen" feature on this either...
stable, memory drain 's gone: program memory still at 22mo after 12 hours. but the new rom has fewer memory for stockage: 20mo vs 51mo of Meschle's new rom.
this version has voicecommand. Lock screen is there, just goto the settings, today and enable the item
Its the same as any other base, vanilla rom.
Where is link for download
www.htc.com
Sign up to the club with your Serial Number and its in the updates section. Other places on this forum have posted links.
Im happy with it, I like its clean and fully tested so Im sticking to it. There may be a reason they havnt used th elatest rom like some other cooked ones. You have to remember,the people who make these roms know a hell of a lot more about them than we do.
Where to find new ROM
Hi guys,
I can't see any ROM upgrade on official HTC Europe website. I registered my device and created account in HTC Club. Now, after login I can't see ROM upgrade either in Phone software update nor in Other downloads. Could you check this out (or maybe ROM is in other section?).
Thanks

Please somebodu help!!!
Maybe there was some serious bug in ROM and they removed it from website? I double checked it with Firefox and IE and still can't find any ROM upgrade...
Voice command?
Where is that? Do you mean Voice Speed Dial?

Could somebody please upload ROM to rapidshare or...

Is there a way back if you installed the WM6 rom ? I just want to know this before I try the new one.

Hi guys ... I will probably be getting a O2 XDA Diamond...
The O2 Diamond has a blue branded Touchflow Gui...
Will there be anyway to install the Original HTC software on it so i have the nice Black Menu?
yep you have to install a hardspl, either olipro's [which i think is unreleased] or the one made by the diamond project team.
then you can flash a new rom.
however, check your rom version in settings->system->device information
if it reads 1.34.831.1
it means you have a new spl that prevents you from flashing hardspl until the experts here create a work-around.
i hope this helps
Rory
On a related note, I was considering getting the O2 XDA Diamond but putting the black TouchFLO 3D on it. However, I've now decided to get a normal HTC Touch Diamond, because I'm lazy and I don't want to flash a new ROM for a number of reasons.

I dont think ill be getting the htc modell becaus i would have to pay much more...
Because of the o2 contract that i have in august i can re new the contract an will get a o2 xda for about 100 euro... so i think ill be sticking to this modell..
Please keep this thread up 2 date guys... Good work so far...
Well I´m pretty new to this. Im gonna get a XDA Diamond too within these weeks. But as mentioned the blue TouchFlow theme from O2 is really ugly in my opinion. So maybe someone can explain me how it is possible to change the ROM to get the original black theme from HTC.
What is necessary for that to work, what changes would that bring to my system (all programs lost?) and what dangers come along with that?
I appreciate your answers. Thanks.

c´mon guys, please give me some information on this.
Ok .
First of all you can take one of two options.
1) Hard SPL the device and flash a new ROM that someone has mirrored here.
Look here for Hard SPL ( Read carefully as not all Diamonds can be Hard SPl'd as yet)
HardSPL Here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=395640
ROM is here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=394985
Hard SPL your device as per the Instructions then run the ROM update that you would have downloaded above . Job Done.
2) Wait until someone removes the 3G Interface from a Diamond (HTC Maila) and then apply that cab to replace your blue one.
Hope this helps
If you read the very first thread in this forum then you would have had an idea on what you was asking.
Thank you very much for your answer. So just to get me right. If i need a german ROM, is there a chance, as far as the new ROM version (probably comming with the german xda) is HardSPL useable, to flash another german HTC ROM on to it (if someone is providing it)?
And the last question, do i loose all my installed or preinstalled apps on my device, such as TOMTOM when i flash a new (other) ROM?

If its an O2 ROM then as you have an O2 device you may not need to Hard SPL but not sure on that one.
As long as you Hard SPL the device then you will be able to flash any ROM that turns up on this forum on your device. Please read the post I pointed out to you, as one of the SPL's shipping on the Diamond will not work and you may brick your device
And the last question, do i loose all my installed or preinstalled apps on my device, such as TOMTOM when i flash a new (other) ROM?
When you flash a device it will set it back to a ROM only . EG all the apps etc you have installed will be gone. TomTom if available on the device ROM will be on it as well (Although I thought O2 pefered Copilot) . If not have a look around the Forums and find a suitable TomTom cab for the device.
Again if you spend some time reading some of the threads on here and within other devices you will start to understand more .
Ok guys so hold us up to date on this.... Im getting my O2 phone in 2 weeks and I think I wont like the blue TF3D.
Ok guys... so is there any new information on getting the branded colour touchflow 3d to the orignial black one? Someone here mentioned doing it without any hardspl stuff via a CAB file or something....
ANy news on this?
Thx Busta
Here in germany it's possible to renew your contract through several online shops. When doing so, you can get any device you want. You usually also get a better deal than renewing through O2. Try if this is possible in your country and get a HTC device!
The only advantage of getting an O2 device is, that you get a refurbished device sent to you in case of a waranty return and don't have to send it in for repair. (At least that's my experience with the hermes aka. XDA Trion I had)

Whats the point of getting a HTC Touch Diamond then? The "fun" begins with cooked ROM flashing and since the Touch Diamond seems to be more and more popular, some very nice ROMs will be out in the near future. Can't wait to see where this is going...

Flashing to another ROM with HArdsSPL wipes out all in your RAM and ROM memory. it over writes al registries.
Also TomTom. A back-up is not advisable as it will not run, or cause bigger problems.
Black TouchFlo 3D Cab
for all the guys, they would like to remove the blue ugly O2 TouchFlo 3D skin, without flashing the Diamond! ;-)
