Hi all,
I have a Touch Diamond that I'd like to install the latest original HTC (non-branded) ROM (Swedish) onto. Right now I have my carrier's (3/Hi3G) branded version on it, and I need to get rid of it.
But I just don't know what I need to do ... I've been reading on this forum for two hours now trying to grasp all about HardSPLs, ROMs, Radios, but I just don't understand. Can someone be so kind a point me in the right direction? (Or even better just write what to do sep-by-step.)
Thank you very much!

Hey fellas, I really need some help/instructions here. I know theres a thread on this , several , but I've posted for help and there so jumbled up now it's went unanswered. I want to put a Wm6.1 rom on my Alltel Vogue. The main feature I'm looking for is The new PIE (with the zoom feature) , and very few if any bugs in it. My problem is with the "imcokeman Vogue unlocker".... I've tried to run the one found on ppcgeeks.com, the one it says to use for gps roms, and the one for non gps, but have the same problem everytime. When I get to the step where it says to unplug , then replug the phone, when i replug, i cant get active sync to connect. Can someone please help. And also , please, please, point me towards a good rom to use. I would like to be able to choose a couple of things that goes on there, but Im not sure how to use a kitchen , where to find one of if thats what its even for. Im really new to this rom stuff. So please help guys. Hopefully I'm allowed a noob/idiot moment and get help instead of laughed at.... Thanks in Advance...
If I'm not mistaken, you can simply flash the new Altel update ... do a search it's there ... it's an approved vendor rom and I don't think you need an unlocker ... plus your warantee would still be intack
Fuzzy
custom
I can flash the Alltel Rom just fine, no problem. I'm wanting to install one of the custom 6.1 roms on here. Thats why I'm trying the unlocker. But still , its not workin.
Hello all,
I've done some searching around and am getting a little bewildered with what seems like contradictory advice/instructions so can someone please give me a shove in the right direction.......
I have a orange UK kaiser and want to flash it with the full featured rom which will allow the use of touch flo as it was designed. I dont know why orange crippled the device in the first place but hey ho.
I've noticed some ROM's floating about that also add messenger as well as other apps, this is all good but I have no idea on the process of flashing the device, and with some of the posts I've seen on here about radio's not working etc after flashing I thought I better just check with someone who does know.
So i just need maybe a link to a definitive thread/post on flashing this particular phone along with the tools needed.
Here's the details I get when booting the phone up.
R: 1.27.14.32
G: 22.45.88.07h
D: 1.81.00.00
Thanks in advance
Go to kaiser rom development and read the stickies and gweni

Cheers mate, will do
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.

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.

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!
i have a tmobile wing aka htc atlas, and i cannot find it on this forum? its just not here, and i know its not that old, i need to know where i can get roms for this particular phone, where i could get the rom upgrade tool for it, and directions PLZ HELP, i beg anyone who reads this and knows a place where i could find alll this info plz help me. i used to have a htc himalaya, and did upgrades daily, however i forgot everything and lost all the rom sites , i know the risks so dont warry, i just really need the above information (directions on how to upgrade, latest roms for my device, rom upgrade program, and anything else i need to do an upgrade.)
thank you ahead of time..

Hi All
Well, after being without one for almost 5 years ... I have bought a second hand HTC Universal, mine to be specific is the O2 XDA Exec.
Being as it was second hand all I got was the handset and USB cable, no discs, box ... nothing! I am really trying to down-grade the ROM on it. It currently has WM6.5 .. and from what I can tell it is defo a cooked ROM from somewhere. I want to down grade to WM5 so it is faster and I dont need any of this fancy stuff as I will be using it for home automation.
I have done ROM upgrading before on my old HTC Touch HD ... so can anyone point me in the right direction please
Welcome to fora, have a look on my sig link, you´ll find what u need.
really being said by orb3000, you can get it from the link in his signature or you find at http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Universal_ROMS_Radios
Hello all again.
Please please can someone help me here. My HTC Uni is now a brick, stuck in bootloader.
I have done the task 28 55aa and from what I can tell, it did what it was meant to. I cant seem to upgrade any roms tho, I have downloaded 5 so far and all have failed saying it cannot find RAPI.dll ... can anyone help me please?
Sorry, maybe I should explain what I have tired! Might help lol
OK, I bought this of eBay and it came with a really bad home cooked Rom that was really slow and laggy. I wanted to downgrade it down to WM5 again so I picked a ROM of here and set about updating. At this point I need to mention this, I cant remember the name of the rom BUT I DO NOT BLAME the cooker of the rom, any rom cookers or xda developers for the problems I now have ... i did this fully knowing i am doing it at my own risk!
So, I didnt do alot off research and found out later that you need a special driver to flash in windows 7. Since trying to flash my HTC it has been stuck in boot loader. I have tried the task 28 55aa, tried upgrading just the radios and just the roms. Hard reset .. all that I can think and no luck at all.
Some of the roms come wtih "MaUpgradeUt_noID" this works, but the "ROMUpgradeUt" doesnt as it says the RAPI.dll file is missing.
Please can someone help me!
Again, on my sig link you´ll find a lot of help threads for problems like that.
I can recommend you to do a DOC format, instructions on my link as well.
all is well now, thanks orb. without your super guide I'd still have a dead HTC.
For all those who want to know, I had to upgrade my ROM on a windows XP machines ... luckily work surprisingly allowed me to do it!!
