hey guys, sorry in advance for the newb question.... ive been reading as much as i can about flashing.... long story short i figured it out got my wm5 flashed to wm6 (tytn I)
RUU_Hermes_DOPODASIA_WWE_3.54.707.3_6275_1.47.00.10_108_Ship
but... now im having call trouble. all my calls are going to voicemail before reaching me only 10% get through. im in full signal area. does the wm6 rom flash the radio as well? and if so does anyone know which rogers radio rom uses or even how to check the radio version? i see lots of ppl talking about it, but few how to find the version number, thanks in advance.
You may want to check the Wiki but I would definately upgrade your radio. That would most likely fix the issue. You can also try resetting and reinstalling the rom. Good luck.
so is that a yes on flashing a wm6 rom changes the radio? i still need to know where to check radio version. also ive searched the wiki up and down, but ill try again
also the wiki doesnt show my orignal software
1.34.631.14
or what radio stack it came with
Yes, flashing a WM6 rom will most likely change the radio. When you reboot your phone look at the very first screen and it should tell you the radio version. You should also be able to check while in windows under the settings / Device Information.
thank you. okay so im using 1.47.00.10 now.... does anyone know the standard rogers one? i guess i shoulda wrote all system info out b4 i flashed
it seems i found the orignal radio is 1.42 for rogers but it isnt on this site...
btw every wiki link on all the radios are dead...
okay update
so i got radio 1.48 which is supposed to be good working, and got the rogers cab and data working but my calls are still not coming through... under the call menu it says UMTS rogers but i think it should just be gsm.... anyone have any idea
fix: ended up flashing
HTC_TyTN_WWE_3.54.255.3_6275_1.48.00.10_108
fixed all the problems. if you have a rogers tytn i suggest staying away from the HK rom.

Take a look at the ROM package you are flashing...and USE CAUTION.!!!
Each time you flashed a new ROM you flashed a new Radio (not recommended frequently) , the radio you flashed which caused issues was 1.47.00.10, and notice on the official HTC ROM you flashed it includes radio 1.48.00.00. The ROM made no difference - do a bit more reading up sir since the radios are sepearate from most ROMs which are released on here.
Hi All,
Sorry, there is so much information on this site, i'm lost.
Can someone please provide links to what I need to download and install to upgrade a stock standard telstra diamond touch so I can get it working correctly with Optus?
Thanks.
OK, i've upgraded the bootloader to the hard spl, and the radio version is already at 1.00.25.06 (do you think its worth downgrading to 1.00.25.05??)
Now, what's the most popular rom for the diamond? What do people suggest?
Thanks.

I'm using Dutty's ROM at the mement. But I will be using this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=438313
when its bugs get sorted out since its based on the Diamond 2 thingo or whatever so it'll have some new features.
I'm the same as you. Bought the Telstra Diamond and chucked in my Optus SIM. Pretty much just have to any ROM and you won't have to see the Telstra branding everywhere.
That ROM you linked looks rather spic. What issues are stopping you from flashing that ROM now?

To be honest I didn't find out about that ROM until just before I found your post, Mainly time has been stopping me and the hassle, and I read that there are some little bugs that it has when skimming through the thread but there was nothing that was bad enough to make me not upgrade. Just don't want to Flash to the ROM and then have a new revision come out two days later which is better.
Think I'll upgrade to this ROM right not though
Thanks for your post.
I decided to use the rom that you linked to, and found found it a 1000% improvement from the Tesltra one.
Only issue I have found so far is trouble connecting to wifi networks. Will have a bit more of a play soon.
Apart from that, it's good.
I 'downgraded' to the 1.00.25.05 radio and seemed to get alot better battery life from it.
Regarding ROMs, I agree almost anything is better than the stock Telstra one
I just thought about this right now. Can the standard HTC ROM be flashed to the Tmobile TP2? Or would we have to wait for the HSPL? Im pretty sure you can flash other standard ROMs right? [like those in different languages]. So is it possible to flash an HTC ROM to the Tmo version at this point? Maybe this belongs in the ROM development section, sorry if it does, but i think its a general question.
Also, how do you check to see if you have CID unlocked your phone, [using the hardware keys]? i did a search of it, but couldnt find it again.
forgive me if im double posting, i did a search for these questions, but couldnt come up with a definitive answer. Or a clear one, for that matter. So i thought its better to ask yourself.
anyways, thanks for the time and the replies guys.
-josh.
No one? looks like 59 other people are interested.. haha. any answers?
No. I skimmed through your question quickly. I bet it's already been asked like 5 other times.
Right now, the HardSPL for our phone is being developed. Once that's done, we can flash other ROM's. Right now, we're stuck with the T-Mobile ROM. And there's no way to CID unlock yet, either. So, just wait for the HardSPL. That's all we can do. I got a PM going around, I guess they're looking for some native thing...Here's the message...
Don't forget to use the tool provided in this thread! The sooner we find somebody with a Hynix internal memory, the sooner we can have Hard-SPL on our Touch Pro 2's! If you've already done this, please ignore this message.
Do that if you wanna get the HardSPL going faster. I guess it's just like the lottery, whoever has the lucky device! That's how YOU can contribute to the community. Got it?
You can't because even if it's a stock rom, it's not customized for your device. Even if we ignore slight hardware differences, there's also the case of people with a European unlocked model being unable to install the Asian Rom because it's the "wrong" device.

You can, it would just have to be modified by the cook, making it a "custom ROM". That will be possible in, I'm guessing, a month, once HardSPL is working on our phones. It'll be way better with custom ROM's, but we gotta just wait.
Oh, I meant you can't right now. Not that it's impossible without the right tools and time enough. But to just download the rom and try to flash it without any extra steps or tricks isn't currently possible.
Hey Guys,
just wanted to tell you, that i am writting this post via my T-mo TP2 which i flashed via Goldcard to original HTC European Firmware.
Everything works perfectly fine!

Or we can wait for HardSPL, lol. That'll be easier for most, and be less bothersome for the cooks.
But it's good to hear that you got a custom ROM! I hate that T-Mo crap
Yeah, T-mo ROM really sucks...
HTC ROM runs much smoother, consuming less RAM, and allowing me to use icq and skype, which is the biggest plus.
Now my TP2 really is (In my oppinion) the best phone on the market
True, can't wait to flash a chefs rom to get rid of all the bloatware!
Hi guys,
Just got a shiny new Touch Pro2 from Vodafone UK and really liking it! Only thing is I really dont like the Vodafone theme and everything, and would love to have the original HTC software on. Few questions:
Is this possible?
Will it affect anything?
Will it allow me to do any hotfixes/updates that HTC release without having to wait for Vodafone to release their custom fw?
Has anyone with a Vodafone TP2 done it and got any advice?
Thanks guys.

yes. you first have to install hardspl. hardspl is a software that after being flashed onto your phone making it accepting any firmware (including self-made).

possibly your warranty.

yes. no need to wait. anyways, if you are looking for cutting edge firmware you probably want to try the roms (firmware) that have been created by forum members.
Thanks for the reply!
Not bothered about affecting warranty as from what I gather it only affects the warranty with Vodafone, but the HTC warranty will still remain.
Will read up on hardspl then and see what I can do.
Any advice from any Voda customers who have done this would be good
Thanks again
I have a Vodafone TP2, and installed HSPL as soon as I could to get rid of that awful red theme vodafone though was a good idea! I've tried various different ROMS with no issues, so go ahead and do it. Turning the phone on and not seeing that horrible red clock was great the first time I did it!!
Hi there,
Also a Vodafone TP2 user. I've flashed HardPL and Energy's Warhawk Rom and its amazing!!!
Waiting for the Genesis version to be a little more stable then will upgrade to that.
Only Issue I have is I can't yet find a way to get rid of the Vodafone screen that pops up on first turning the phone on. (Boot Splash screen).
Have a good read of the HardSPL thread, Flashing your first Rom and then have a go.
If you are in any doubt go back and read it again.
Good luck and enjoy!
hello guys
i have the HTC Touch Diamond (p3700) from rogers, and i was wondering since the phone is locked to the rogers network, is it possible for me to install a custom rom on the phone?? or do i have to do the sim unlock to do that??
sorry, this might be a noob question but i need the question answered as i had the O2 Xda Mini S before my HTC which was unlocked and this is the first time i actually purchased a phone from rogers since i get all my phones from out canada
thanks for your help guys, really appreciate it
i have a rogers HTC diamond as well.. and its got the winmob 6.1 5.2.19965 build 1.2.3 Year 2008.. the HTC website doesnt let me download the feb 2009 firmware as the device is not suitable..
a few simple Noob questions please..
1 - its working in my country with other network sims, all of them but the phone strartup says rogers... is my cell unlocked or not?
2 - will Hard Spl remove everytrace of rogers from my phone? (i actually wana debrand it from rogers to plain standard retail version)..
3 - Will any firmare upgrade using hardspl method work on my cell?.. and what will happen to the orignal FW? will it be erased permanently, or will it still be stored in a secret storage, so that it can be retrieved later when i plan to sell it later and rest to factory defaults?
Again, as a newcomer and a noob at the Xda dev scene, i would apreciate any kind of help .
thanks in anticipation..

Hi,
As far as I know, you should be able to install any ROM you want.
But make sure you have flashed Hard-SPL Olinex Unsigned,
just try the link in my sig and follow steps 6 - 11.
You still need an unlocker to make it possible using other networks though.

1. Yes your phone is unlocked, but you are using a rogers customized ROM. Try a different ROM to remove it.
2. No, Hard-SPL will not remove it. You'll need to flash another ROM to do that.
3. Firstly, if you are flashing/upgrading a new firmware (we call it ROM) then all data will permanently removed.
There are some packs to revert your ROM back to stock, but I don't know if there are any Rogers ROM's available on the net.
I hope I have answered all your questions.
Good luck both!

hey thanks a lot for the reply, finally someone replies, and this method will not brick my phone right?? since that is what scares me the most the fact that i mite end up bricking my phone
Thanks a lot Elcondor.. it solved half of my problems..
the only thing is,, i tried the 6.5 Prototype rom and rogers sill show up on the startup screen.. i flashed the splash screen, and still the lower 100pixels appear pink, out of no where..
and i simply wana DEBRAND the whole **** of rogers from it, so that i can upgrade the 2.0.0.00 rom version to the HTC official 2.0.43 version, but evertime i download from there, and try updating it, it says, Model ID not compatible..
is there a way to remove the entire rogers crap from it, and get it cleaned like a retail version?...
Thanks a lot sir..

No, it shouldn't brick your phone. In fact, Hard-SPL makes your device hardly brickable. Just try it, you will not be dissapointed. But, it's not my responsabillity if you brick you diamond, keep that in mind.

The splash screen is a harder part to do. You need Patchsplash to patch your splash screen. In that way, the splash screen should appear right. Note that the procedure to do that is pretty hard. Here are some more instructions if you didn't get it.
And about a Diamond stock ROM, take a look here. A 2.03.4 ROM including a new radio and the splash screen.
Good luck guys!

No prob my friend, xda-devs is to help each other.
To recommend a ROM is pretty hard, since there are very different kind of ROMs available.
Do you want a ROM with full Diamond2 experience, without WM 6.5(.x) try Gen. Y D2 R4.
Or, do you prefer a light WM6.5(.x) ROM, try BSB 6.5.1. It is pretty fast and light.
In a short time, I am going to release a 6.5.1 ROM (called Condor GT), with very nice graphics and still very fast.
Just give some a shot and you'll soon find out which ROM is the best.
BTW All the ROMS given in this thread are better that stock ROMs, just to be clear
