Which ROM do you have installed? Do you have the WWE 1.33 Brightpoint WM6 ROM or Kavana's or Rickwyatt's WM 6.1 cooked ROM? Or are you running the stock rom that already came loaded with your phone?
Reason why i ask is that if you are not using one of the 3 aforementioned ROMS then the highest capacity your phone will handle is 2gb... and that's because the stock ROMS that are installed by your mobile provider don't enable SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity) to work on theirs . If you do have a stock ROM installed, in order to make the 8gb work, you will need to install one of the 3 aforementioned ROMS, which all 3 can be found on this forum.
If you do have one of the 3 ROMS installed, then you may have a bad SD card.
just format it into 2 4gb partitions ?
8GB

you have to application unlock your phone b-4 you can install that brightpoint ROM. you also have to have your SD card removed from your phone b-4 you install it. do a searsh for SDA application unlock on this forum.... there are several threads that have it.
Also I think there are supposedly some cab files you can install that might enable the SDHC cards to work, but I haven't tried it myself since I am already running WM6.1. There is a thread in this forum where you can get those files.
Hey guy, check the STICKY that Gixxum posted. It goes through STEP BY STEP in detail what files you need, when to run them, etc. to reflash your rom.
I thought 8gig is only recognized in 6.1??

You are correct it is.
hmmmm. i could have sworn the WWE brightpoint WM 6.0 ROM with the SDHC.cab that was floating around made it also support 8GB.... guess i was wrong then. my bad. either way , doesn't matter to me since i have 6.1

I had SDHC support working when I was using the WM6.0 HTC ROM, it saw my 4GB card just fine. There are only a couple of 6.0 ROMs that will do this.
So...
Okay, what is the verdict? Will Kavanna's 6.1 rom read an 8gb sdhc card or not? has anyone tried it with this rom? I have heard it will read 4 but would like to purchase 8 and am just making sure it works.
yes 6.1 will read I have one right now working great. Cant wait till I add my music and programs and more.
I just got a TMOBILE DASH 3-G. It has 6.1. I need get a card for storage. Will a Micro SDHC work on it out of the box or will I need to try to find a Micro SD?
You don't need to but new card

I've heard talk of people flashing roms using SD Cards from a rom dump.
Has anyone been able to do this for wm 6.0<
i want to find a way of upgrading my rom cos the one i use at the moment is a bit tempremental.
I can't install a rom update via usb because my usb connector is broken and doesn't connect to the pc. I just paid £109 for the screen to be replaced so don't fancy spending more on it seeing my contract is nearly up.
PRLEEEESEEE help. x
Housemate just got VARIO II - I'm itching to upgrade that but she won't let me.
at first what pda U've got? this is not universal forum (for all devices) but for HTC Universal(jasjar, o2 exec....).
if UR speaking about universal as far as i know noone was able to flash trough SD card yet.
If U need 2 flash other device try to search proper forum
i have the htc universal t-mobile mda pro
As far as I know this isn't possible as the ROM contains drivers for the SD slot, so it can't read the SD slot during a flash... think that's right.
Thanks. i think i read about a guy who bought a universal on ebay which was supposed to be new but had call history. the reply to why it had call history was that they did a rom dump as it was the easiest way to change the language. that's why i thought i'd ask the question.

the seller is fake
Hi, i have a T-Mobile MDA Compact III (UK), as original, and want to change it from WM5 to WM6, i have been reading through the forums, and havent heard anything from people being able to change it without a PC connection. I can charge off USB, but activesync doesnt find it (tried with known working cables, and different PCs). I have come to the conclusion that when i charge it in the car, its got broken (as mentioned on one of the threads).
So, is it possible to CID unlock/change the ROM from the Mico SD card?
Cheers,
I had the same problem, just bring it backk to T-mobile, they will fix it
You can update copying the new rom on the sd card and doing an hard reset. There is a thread about this.
ok, cheers guys i think i'll go pay t-mobile a visit so i can hack my phone lol
You can flash only 'official' new system by SD. I've tried to flash other .mbh (and USPL too) but it impossible ;((((

Enjoy!
I've read people saying that it is possible to downgrade back to WM6.1 or 6.0 after upgrading to WM6.5. I'm trying out some new ROMs on my Hermes, but I don't want to be stuck with a WM6.5 ROM if I decide that I don't like a ROM after I flash it...
I have HardSPL Olipro on my handset. Say for example I wanted to flash Josh's Dark Winter WM6.5 ROM (from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=461490). I have the OEM AT&T stripped ROM, and I have the flavour of the ROM I want to flash.
Is there an easy way to downgrade or flash back to WM6/6.1 from this point if I successfully flash the WM6.5 ROM? I've looked round xdadevs and other venues, and the only downgrade guides I can find are mrvanx's SPL guides. I'm sure somebody has written a downgrade guide but I can't for the life of me find it!
just download a WM6 or WM6.1 ROM of your choice and flash it

At the moment I'm flashing WM6.1 ROMs using the SD card method from the bootloader. Would this still be possible after flashing to WM6.5, or would I have to flash with the USB cable?
You still can use the SD Card method.
Just Flash it

You just need to flash the 6.0 or 6.1 with ANY method... its a Hermes not a PSP!
Haha - so it's really that simple? I can just take the RUU_signed.nbh from ANY WM6/6.1/6.5 release, rename it to hermimg.nbh and SD card flash it with HardSPL... and it'll always work fine, no problems?
The reason I'm being so careful is because my Hermes is my only phone, and I have no other phone for at least several months Can't afford to brick my only communications device!

Once you have HardSPLed the Hermes its virtually impossible to brick it. Also the same methodology and process that was used to flash the 6.5 ROM can be used to flash the 6.1 ROM. So do a search, download and flash to your pleasure is contented.
the fact of it being wm6/6.1 or 6.5 is just the os that is in with the rom unlike computers the whole rom is flashed so the os is removed with it.
Have Fun
Well that's cool
I was under the impression that flashing some WM6.5 ROMs did stuff to the radio stack, which then caused problems if you tried to flash back to WM6.1... As long as you've got HardSPL, is this not a problem then?
I've done it many times, just make sure you flash a stock OEM rom first, the different compressions used may cause a problem, which is taken care of by the stock rom. After doing that, as long as you have the hard spl, you shouldn't have a problem.
haha.. guess u didnt finish reading the thread on wm6.5
josh was da one who said its not possible to downgrade but at the end of the thread. he said he was jus joking. lolz
its okay that u flash 6.1 from 6.5. it makes no difference. but always flash a default rom first cos there might be problem if u flash directly from rom to rom. especailly from big storage ones

I got a bit worried after I kept on seeing people saying that it was difficult / possibly dangerous / impossible
My problem is whenever I use xda-devs, I always open 12 threads at once in different tabs - then I flick back and forth from one tab to another reading so many different things at once, sometimes I don't read everything in a thread by mistake. I guess that's served me right hasn't it!

I was wondering why the 6.5 ROM chefs were recommending that you flash the stock AT&T rom before flashing theirs... Thanks for inadvertantly answering that question for me
Thanks also to all who replied to this thread. I couldn't find a single definitive answer on how safe it was to flash between 6.1 and 6.5 (and maybe back to 6.1 again); I've had a look at the various 6.5 ROMs and they seem to be fairly similar - but do people have their own particular favourites which work well and have a decent featureset?
Can anyone tell me where i can download windows mobile 6.0 for HTC Touch 3g please as i need to downgrade if from WM 6.1. Thanks in advance

ok im a bit lost but here is my situatoin and question...
Sit: I bought a Unicel HTC S621 phone works fine, but i want to upgrade the Mobile version from 5.1
Question: Is there a way to upgrade this with a T-Mobile 6.0 or higher version as i am a T-Mobile Customer?
Ponder: Is this phone the same as T-Mobile Dash? just curious because it appears to be.
Hi my friend. I have an htc s621 from mexico telcel, there is a lot of t-mobile roms in the roms section you should take a look there. They are the same phone as s621 is american and s620 is european.
Greetings

Welcome to the forums
TY for the help i did read something, about unlocking CID... is there a way to tell if its unlocked?
i do know the SIM is unlocked as i have put my T mobile card into it and made calls and text with it in. So even tho its unicel phone i did get it does work with my t m sim.... i want to do this right, but am unsure if the CID is unlocked.
normally they come CID locked.
if you want to flash directly, turn off the phone, quit sd card and sim card and turn on the phone while pressing camera button, this will put your device into flash mode. Download a T-Mobile Rom and connect via usb, and run ROM update, if you get a error code then your device si protected or the model predefined is not the same as intended the update utility. You can "force" the ROM update using the tools that gmaniac2008 told you.
I like very much original rom, altough some cooked roms you can found in the rom section are very nice and have the latest windows mobile releases, lots of prebuilts apps and customizations.
in Official ROMS
you should install maybe this 1.22.531.6 (T-Mobile USA, WM6) because contains some configurations like mms, gprs, etc. from your carrier (to install this try the past method if dont works then you have to read more to force install)
A good choice if you want to try a custom rom, and they have autoinstaller (just need to quit sd and sim and turn on the phone, connect to usb, and run the utility. The utility is autoinstall.

Thanks for the help and guidance to the right ROM but one big problem, there is no romupdateutility.exe file in the .rar file i downloaded so how the heck do i get the update utility?
oh btw if it matters im running windows 7 x64
Just download the files, they contain te rom update utility. Just have to run.
Better if you make the update on Windows XP x32.
Take a further read on FAQs thread. Official updates (rom updates utilities) looks like RUU_EXCALIBUR_bla bla bla.exe
RUU_HTC_S620_bla bla bla.exe or
RUU_HTC_s621 etc etc etc

Welcome to xda-developers.
Have you tried installing the .cab from this forum?

I'm afraid I can't help you much, since I don't have an Artemis anymore, but I'm positive 4GB cards work with the SDHC patch.
Good luck.
