rogers s621 rom.. please help.

hello all, i am trying to load the S621 rogers rom into my tmobile Dash. this will be my first attempt in doing this and yes i am a noob. im trying out the DIY post on this forum on flashing any rom into the dash. i am well aware of the mishaps that could happen (bricking my phone). i hear the s621 rom is much faster than the standard wm6 rom that comes with the dash from tmobile. i am tired of the constant reboots and i would like to try this rom out. my only problem is i cant seem to find anywhere where the rom is available for download. i tryed the rogers website, but everytime i click the link it gives me an error. i am hoping that some1 is willing to help this noob out and host the rom for me or atleast direct me to where i can download it. i have tryed various torrents sites and i have come up empty handed. i have also tryed seaching in the forum and everything seem to point back to the rogers website. i have tryed the HoFo forum and same. please help. any info will be appreciated as to where i can d/l this rom. thanks for ur time.
found the rom mods please delete if u wish

Where and how did you find the rom? I've been looking to no avail. If you can't link legally or whatever, let me in on how you went about locating it. Thanks in advance if you do help...

i found it right on the rogers.com site. apparently the link that was turning up as an error had a part that i just had to deleted and it worked. this is the link:
https://your.rogers.com/web_auth/techsupport.asp?brand=28&model=S621R

is there a lot of rogers branding in their rom? i have tmo and really don't want a lot of branding like tmo does.

You should use this site if you needed some help...
here it it is... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=327757
and Rogers rom is so much better, and faster...

yes! Rogers rom is waaay faster than the tmo rom..
and so far that i have used this rom (Rogers rom) i dont see much rogers branding in it.. its like the the tmo rom only faster and w.o all the B.S. in it.. o plus it comes configured with a working joggr

Couple of questions about changing ROMs
please indulge a NOObie to the change process..
Situation...
I have a TMobile Dash that I upgraded to the official WM6 from TMo. It is SIM unlocked direct from TMo (traveling overseas and asked them to provide unlock codes - they complied).
Now the Questions...
1) If I change the ROM to Rogers WM6, will I lose SIM unlock?
2) Is the Rogers ROM that much better than the TMo one? (posts I've read indicate its the best one out there for WM6)
3) Can anyone tell me what functionailty I will lose moving to the Rogers ROM? (I've heard voice command, but what about long press keys provide "alt functionality", etc??)
Thanks so much in advance if someone could starigten me out here..

as a fello n00bert my self.. i switched from tmob wm6 to the rogers and i find the rogers much worth it than the tmob rom..
as for ur questions..
1)i dont think u would lose SIM lock b/c ur messing with the CID and not with the SIM and hopefully u still have the SIM unlock code tmo provided so that should unlock ur phone if it becomes locked (that if u flash it with jockyw2001's progs)
2)to me its worth it.. i havent restarted my phone for 2 days and i still have 15K+ KB in memory
3)no u wont lose the "long press key" function but then again there will be a shortage of progs that came standard with tmo wm6 like the OZ IM is not available on the rogers rom and the voice commands but u do have voice tags... plus u will have to reconfig the settings to tmos network..
hope this helps and for any false info i may have given.. sorry but thats how ive seen it and how i know of it from my own experience

i was about to ask the same question about the config...is there a way i can get OZ back..and also set up my yahoo email and all that..also i have windows vista and it connects to my phone with a sync program on it and when i got the rogers rom i went thru the steps and i noticed it found that my fone was connected so can i use it instead of active sync because it works the same..and also alll i have wm6 from tmo...and i wanted to know if all i have to do is connect the fone and flash the rom to it...

dude u gotta be more clear.. u say u have tmo wm6 or the rogers? cuz from wat i understood was u have tmo then rogers and now u trying to flash a rogers over a rogers.. but as to flashing the rom follow the steps in this thread. the first post... for me it worked like a charm.. flashed my fone in under 15 mins on the first try.. but i do warn.. READ CAREFULLY.. to me thats the most important thing that every1 under estimates.. read the instructions carefully and u should have a successful flash..
as far as the OZ IM im not sure if u can get it back.. maybe some 1 can provide u with the files from a Tmobile rom for it to work. or u can try a 3rd party program like agile or IM+.. me personally i dont like the OZ IM so i use ebuddy.com or a program called SLICK.. and with the rogers rom in order to sync to a computer u will need active sync 4.5 i believe. u should be able to download it directly form microsoft website for free(thats wat i did)
hope this helps

So does the Rogers Rom also have the VOIP already installed or do you still need to follow the instructions in the other post to re-add the VOIP function? This would be the deciding point on if I need to switch from the TMobile ROM to Rogers!

well im guessing active sync is active sync.. but u still need to get past the CID lock which u would have to pay to get unlocked according to your fones IMEI or you can use the the process jockeyw2001 posted with his program and the sda unlocker which is the way i did it to my dash..
this is the link and the process i used which in 15 mins after CAREFUL READING got me the rogers rom into my tmobile dash:

Vista uses an update to Activesync called Device Center. It provides the same service as Activesync.

This is a newbie question and I may not have searched correctly but...
I am currently using a T-Mobile Dash that has been uprgaded to T-Mobile's WM6 Rom that was offered on their website. It originally had a previous version.
If I follow the instruction to flash the device with the Roger's Rom, and I end up missing functionality, can I simply follow the instructions again and re-flash the T-Mobile WM6 Rom upgrade on top of the Roger's Rom? I want to make sure I can go back if needed before I go through the process!
I also have my unlock code from T-Mobile because I travel overseas so if I needed to go back to T-Mobile's Rom once I flash it over to Roger's Rom, will I need to re-apply the unlock code?

yes u can flash back to the tmobile rom

I previously updated my Dash to the Rogers ROM but now I am going back due to a number of issues I've encountered. The biggest being the constant locking after I applied the App unlock and the AllowCertificate. Also, when I received calls, the call would cancel if I had another person on the line. Anyone else have these problems? I also could not take my calls off hold if they were placed on hold.

lol if you're a smart kid you wouldve flashed to a custom rom with m2D on it.
Jk. I've had that problem before where i couldnt add programs to the "launcher page" of manilla as well as having issues adding favorite people to the peoples tab.
I would try 1 of 2 things.
1) try a different version of manilla 2d for example if you used version 21 try version 20.
2) BUT i would highly reccommend using a custom rom with manilla 2d. Why? first off we have great chefs (people on this forum who make great roms). They optimize the rom (or basically the operating system for your phone to run more efficiently --> FASTER)
I would suggest NFSFAN who makes vogue roms. He also added other mods that are featured in the touch pro and touch diamond. Cant go into detail here but if you need help flashing to a custom rom you can pm me

1) You should upgrade your radio --> maybe 3.42.30
honestly the easiest way is to use this utility from htc. This upgrades your htc touch to the newer windows mobile 6.1 with GPS enabled and Rev A for faster data downloads. http://www.htc.com/us/supportdownloadlist.aspx?p_id=76&act=sd&cat=all By doing this it will upgrade your radio. But note: this is not the only way to upgrade radio its the simplest way for newbies ​2) You need to unlock your phone
This is the Unlockerhttp://rapidshare.com/files/113951076/Vogue_unlocker_MFG_2.31.exe​If you need instructions here is where i got it. Just read we all had to read to figure it out. http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=20370​3) After doing that you can finally install a custom rom.
I suggest this one. Here is a very good and stable WM 6.1 Rom with Manilla 2D aka Touchflo 2D incorporated in this rom/os made by NFSFAN: http://74.53.45.2/%7Eevadmin/nfsfan/Public%20Releases/Sprint/NFSFAN%27s%201.12%20Sprint%20ROM.rar​There are 2 ways of flashing your phone...actually any windows mobile phone for that matter. 1) Flashing by your micro SD card or 2) flashing through your computer via USB cord​
Flashing Through microSD card
I Personally Like this method because it works 100%. The usb method sometimes has errors with active sync connection. Basically you download the rom (provided above) and thers a file called RUU_signed.nbh For the Sd card method you have to copy that to the root of your microSD card and rename it to VOGUIMG.nbh. Please note that you shouldve unlocked your phone by now and you shouldve backed up everything from you fone/sd card to your pc because everything will be deleted. Now after the VOGUIMG.nbh is on the root of the SD card, you now press and hold the power button on your phone AND press and hold the camera button on your phone at the same time --> keep holding it and then insert your stylus into the reset button. KEEP holding it until you get a 3 color screen red blue green. ANd follow the onscreen instructions.​
Flashing via USB cord
If you flash by this method, with the rom provided above, NFSFAN has provided u with a .rar of all the stuff you need to flash. Just unzip/unrar it. In there theres a file called ROMUpdateUtility.exe. open that. Make sure you plug in your phone and have an active sync connection. that program u just opened has onscreen instructions. DO NOT REMOVE YOUR PHONE FROM THE USB CORD AND HOPE YOU DONT HAVE A POWER OUTAGE WHILE DOING THIS BY USB CORD. This method is the easiest way to flash...but easy to me is subjective and it may not be easy for all.​
Anyways after its done whether u flashed by sd card or usb cord...it takes a while to start up dont panic. YOu shuold see that screen where u have to align your screen... after that ur phone will perform a customization let that **** run do not cancel.

intimidatorx31 thanks for the amazing guide! If anything, it should be stickied at the top to help all newcomers here. Well done.

The "guide" lol if u wanna call it that is very basic and thers some lil details that are left out but i didnt wanna include all of it or else it may confuse you. I was just like you guys i didnt start flashin until 5 months ago and ive had windows mobile phones for 3 years now. I learned all of this from the htc touch wiki page on this site. And i also read it on PPCgeeks.com

OH OK ill google them then =D

By CLARO, are you referring to CLARO SAC, as in CLARO is your cellular carrier/provider?
If CLARO is an app its not one Ive ever heard of for unlocking HTC Vogues and a google search comes up with it being a cellular provider NOT an unlocking software to flash custom ROMs to your phone and the only thing I find close to unlocking a phone and CLARO isnt even for the HTC Vogue but rather a V220.

LOL true.
Claro runs all the CDMAs in this country, and Viva is another competitor,
btw i mean claro by this http://claro.com.do/
and they unlocked my phone and even had their custom Rom which, apart from being slow had a hideous theme
and i've never unlocked a phone by myself
what is the purpous of unlocking?

Unlocking the phone is what allows users to flash a custom ROM onto them other than the locked, standard ROM from the Carrier we buy them from.
So your saying the carrier CLARO has unlocked the phone? can you verify this to be certain, if not check with them regarding flashing of a custom ROM and check out THIS for more information regarding unlocking and relocking your phone for custom ROMs
As far as you being a "foriegn" (at least to me as Im in the US and my experience and understanding of ROMs and Unlocking comes from use on US phones) you may want to double-check your phones state before going to far

In Desperate Need of Shipped ROM for HTC Touch Diamond

Hi I have recently tried to flash my Touch Diamond ROM, messed the hell out of it and, the only way to fix it is to flash it with the original stock ROM that it came with. Could anyone please help me with this.
HTC Touch Diamond P3700
Rom SPL 1.93
CID HTC_017
The phone was not branded straight from the manufacturer.
The problem is that I tried to flash the phone without doing hard SPL
Cleaned the whole phone and the only thing working now is the connection to the computer Trough mtty. I tried using other ROMS but they stop at 1% and gave me a vendor incorect error or something.

just download it from htc site

I tried but when I select the Serial number it says that the update is not for my phone and doesn't let me download it. and the ones that they have are only updates.

Does anyone have a valid Serial Number that i can use to download update ROM from HTC?

Have you tried any official roms posted around here? like this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=410720

I did that but it started to load the roam into the phone and crashed at 1%,
it gave "Invalid Vendor Id" error and it turns off. Is there like a unversal HTC rom that at very least gets me access to the NANd Memory
I just want to HArd_spl the phone and install a new ROm
Dont even care about the original ROM any more

Try that one HT828GN27034 and let me know the result.

Oh very nice, thank U very much, I'll try it right now.

All of the Upgrade ROMs just give me invalid Vender ID error message
Doesn't make sense to me though, i tried flashing the Phone With Hard-SPL but for some odd reason it hangs at 0%.
Is my phone dead for good or there might be a way to fix this issue

did u installed OLINEX first?
If ur phone is in 3 color screen try to install Olinex 1.4 and after that flash it with stock ROM.

No thats the thing, I Just Cleaned the phone with Mtty and tried to flash it with WM6.5. but after the cleaning nothing really work out. and i cant even go back to the the old Rom cose I did not back it up.

What windows are you using?

I am using windows 7, but i tried the same process on vista and XP, same result, the phone connects to the pc, and right as i try to load one of the ROMs from HTC's website, the thing crashes at 1% and says invalid vendor ID error.
IS there a universal ROM that can be loaded, or my phone is bricked for good?

Perhaps you want to have a look here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Diamond_Upgrades
Succes!

Oh wow this place has every ROM type but mine, so not fare, u think if i download and try every one of these other ones I might have some sort of luck?
I used HTC's MTTY and figuered that My CID is HTC__017, and the 1.93 Spl
and mine is not listed there.

Hey, I have the EXACT same problem. My diamond is the US 3G Unbranded phone (DIAM110, CID=HTC__017). I've both called and emailed HTC asking for the ROM, but they say that they do not have it. The only way to get it would be to request it from the vendor you bought it from. I got mine as a gift so I can't really do that. Oh, and if you want them to flash it for you, you have to pay like $160. Not cheap. And you know HTC, they'll make up that your main board's fried, and ask you to pay $300. If you have WARRANTY, send ASAP. Mine expired a week ago.
As for flashing random ROMs, most likely this will not work (although you can try). The way your phone determines if it's allowed to install the ROM is by looking at the beginning of the file. If you open up the NBH with an editor, you can see and even change the ID. The problem is, HTC "signs" the file with a 2048 RSA key (2^2048), and if you even change one digit then the signature will be invalid.
So yes, I have the exact same problem, my thread is at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623320, so if you have any luck, or I do, check out that thread.
At this point, the only things that are left to do are to beg HTC or a vendor for the ROM update (I might find HTC developer's mailing address and ask them); find a way to get into Soft SPL, or in other words load into memory a bootloader that would allow flashing of unsigned code; or find a vulnerability that would allow flashing unsigned code (has been done with Trinity).
Also you can try contacting Olipro, cmonex, and pof, but I so far have had no luck.
Hopefully we'll find something.

Hey man, thanks for the reply, we are pretty much on the same exact boat, am gonna try to contact HTC see if my warranty is still up, and the phone i got it as a gift, I don't have a recipt of a proof of purchase, what do u think i should tell them. And if that doesn't work, I think I am going to try every single 1.93 ROM
in this site.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Diamond_Upgrades
And also what is your CID. if its HTC_017 then its not here, but there are a lot of them in here so u might get some luck.
let me know how it goes man.

I think i have the solution
can u please confirm clearly as what has happened , hope i have the specific solution .

Well what do you expect of XDA people? To offer you a repair service?
Just check if that problem matches your case, and if so, send it back to HTC!
THEY will help you.

Ok Ok, i just thinking about it, maybe is any .apk ? what can calibrate my keyboard or something else?
Question mate, i can send phone to T-Mobile in UK if i Load Custom Rom ? i not loosed warranty ???
Thanks

You have a chance that they will not accept the phone because it has custom firmware on it. (Or there has been tampered with)
Best thing is to make a backup of your files, texts, apps, etc. and load a stock ROM back on it by using the official RUU downgrade method.
That way the phone will be reset completely back to stock and they won't know that you had an custom ROM on it.
