I dont think it works with any of the branded htc diamonds like orange or vodafone,as you cant register the serial number. It will only wor for sim free handsets

Do you happen to know why they dont let you register a branded handset,considering how many people get theyre phones on contract.

Because in that case the Provider is the oe that should offer support not HTC!

I think its because branded handsets are seen to be paid for by the network or subsidised so its the networks responsibility to make updates available.
We all know this is, to put it politely, complete pants, and it should be as easy as going onto HTC's website and then choosing your mobile type and then having the option of which network you have, along with the location.

just downloaded the latest ROM from the link in the first post... just had to put the serial number in (from under the battery).
cheers,

Vodafone users do not seem to able to register on the HTC web site, I have sent an email to HTC, but not yet had any replies. Does any one know, where or how to download the latest ROM upgrade?

Question about ATT US Mobile 6 Update???

If I go on the the htc.america.com website and download the mobile 6 update ROM does it come with the Radio? I ask because I need to set my phone back to default. If it doesn't include the radio, can some tell me which radio is used with default settings.

HTC America doesn't have WM6 available for download and won't for the 8525. It's WM5. But it does include the radio.

I was halfway joking... J0KER. The question has been asked about a hundred times (at least) already.
There is no "official" WM6 upgrade currently available on HTC America's website. It is scheduled to be released sometime later this year.
By the way, the link you gave is for the HTC TyTN, not the AT&T 8525, as was requested.
Nice first post.
Better luck next time.
Who said ATT would update the rom?
They would not make any money off of it so they have no desire to do that.

Official WM6 upgrade available in HTC Site

Official WM6 upgrade available in HTC Site
where is the link?
Can I put this on my Tmobile dash??
yes, but it is more work to remap keys than using the Rogers rom that is already correct, less ugly, and just as fast
There are lots of posts regarding how to update the ROM, so I wont go into that. Search for USPL CID Unlock

[ROM][IND]Indian 2G Diamond Ship

I went to a dealer and got a rom dump and rebuild with cmonex's help Thanks a bunch cmonex for helping me ...
this is a big storage rom so you will have a little extra space as well...
Here is the link for anyone that did end up flashing with some custom roms on the forums...
http://rapidshare.com/files/126887587/indian_ship_rom.rar
Also anyone with an indian diamond do not flash any roms available on forums yet
thx m8 for all the efforts and the upload...
though i must add that i hate HTC for launching a 2g model alone and then too it has the old ROM....
they still think they can get away by ignoring the major indian market [email protected]!
thx again n regards

That's why i mentioned that Me_p's ROM is new one.. That's the same one 1.37.720.2 WWE.. Boinger66.. Dont think this is old ROM as quoted by Outkasted..
I bought mine one for 26,700, from distributor directly.. Eagerly waiting to see it on 8th when i get it in hand (my relative coming back with it from Kerala)
tho am in India i got the 3g model
I really dont understand why they would release a 2g version just for the Indian market
when 3g is gonna come out in airtel and vodafone in mid sep.another wierd marketing strategy
anyone from chennai know where they service HTC phones ?
Question
Hi Guys,
if anyone is aware may be from past experiences, How will we be getting official ROM updates? will it be through Airtel or will be via HTC eCLub?
Thanks

Why is it not advised for flashing? Due to SIM locks? Someone mentioned non edge radio, what if i flash the rom without the radio? possible?

if you flash your radio wont work
until you flash back to indian 2g compatible rom
Thanx for the info.. So I have your modded panosha' ROM as the only option left? For the moment I dont see any big difference with it to the original stock rom apart from a little more Storage memory. Only thing I dislike is the SMS and MMS accounts being together

Hi guys ,

diamond 3 australia rom & radio

didnt particulary want too make a new thread and make clutter.. however i have searched for about half hour now and have had no luck finding a stock Rom for a 3 australia diamond????
is there one available?... strangely enough im actually after one with all the 3 branding on it aswell if possible
New rom is now on HTC website australia. Only thing is that you need a product serial number to download the file. I have a Telstra version and I tried the product serial code and it would not let me download it.

That's an earlier version than the shipping ROM for those phones, isn't it ? The PC10IMG.zip file was posted here some weeks ago.

But I did root, S-Off and flashed Overclock modules before doing a system backup.

No, because of the changes you've made to it.
Speaking of, I need the 1.34.707.5 RUU that came with my phone. This version is kinda sluggish. Slower than my desire. wish i didn't try to hack it without a ruu to fall back on.

Might be worth asking HTC for one ? I don't see why they shouldn't give it to you. No harm in trying, anyway.

I'm pretty sure that's where all the RUUs originate from. Maybe tell them your phone was acting kinda weird and you tried a "return to stock" but that wouldn't work, so you want to try flashing the ROM again to see if that helps rather than sending it back ?
You can open a support call via email on their website. You have to supply a serial number, so they probably won't ask too many questions and might even just give you an RUU.
Work asking, anyway ? Maybe someone else can think of a better story, that was just off the top of my head.
I'm ****ed. Of course I didnt tell them I flashed an older ruu rom.Their reply is:

ok, well it was worth a try. Is there something specific in that ROM that means you couldn't use give the standard European ROM a try ? e.g. particular Asian languages that you need ?
Not really though I've been trying to make a goldcard through the goldcard app and failing miserably at it.

I have got an idea. Tell them you are running a old version(you get this phone from your friend, and you didn't know where it's from), like 1.34.4xx.x
and ask for 1.34.708.5 or newer
see how they reply
