Hello everyone.
I'm new to this and been reading around, playing with different stuff.
Just finish unlocking my Vogue and now looking for 2 or 3 roms to try.
1. Latest Stable Custom ROM (WM 6.1)
2. Latest Stable OEM Rom (for emergency)
I don't know whats the difference really, but I think I want to try the WM 6.1 Roms, but I been noticing there are so many of them in different forums. I don't know what to do, and it seems most of them are experimental and stuff.
I notice, doing all this process will cause people to go all over everything they done to their phone before (Tweaks im talking about)
Thanks in advance

There are 2 versions here:
## Removed URL since they were for the Titan not Diamond, My bad ##
I hope you didn't try flashing those ROMs - they are for the Titan!
Assuming you posted in the Diamnond section because you have a Diamond, then you will need a DIAMOND (Victor) ROM.
A little bit of knowledge is dangerous, no?
Got one, thanks guys!
Sprint rep here
Hey man, you can take that phone into a Sprint store that has technicians and have them re-image the phone...i had to do it to mine. They will have no problem doin that for you.

I don't think you guys (Sprint/Verizon/CDMA) have any ROMs available, let alone a HardSPL. The current ROMs in the ROM Development area are for GSM phones only. Don't try to flash a GSM ROM onto your CDMA phone. Otherwise, you could turn your phone into a simple paperweight!
oooooh! I had a post saying i was having trouble flashing the HardSPL, noone told me i couldnt do it on a sprint phone. I guess ill just wait.
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
Regards,

Thank you.

Okay, again bare in mind I'm a newbie, how can I get the Hardspl from my device to help?

quite a newbie as well. but you just have to read the forum. in the ROM development of your device you see that the HardSpl is not yet done. This one is needed if you want to flash cooked ROMs.
There's also plenty of threads about flashing ROMs and everything is explained properly.
Thank you.
And thanks for not calling me an idiot
