Tytn rom onto a Trinity - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

hi,
I have an official WM 6 Orange rom for TYTN II .... file:
RUU_HTC_TyTN_II_Kaiser_ORANGE_UK_3.28.61.0R_radio_sign_25.83.40.02_1.65.16.25_Ship.exe
can anyone advise if this would flash ok onto my HTC Trinity/ SPV M700,
which currently has an Orange WM 5 Rom on it.
thanks to the great help on this forum I would not have a problem in using that rom if it is deemed safe so to do.
regards,
Kevin

NEVER try to do this.
Every ROM is made for specific device.
Don't even look at ROM's that is not design for Your device.
Trying to update device with other ones ROM will brick it.

many thanks Spiaate,
you have confirmed that what in my heart I felt was the case.
the only reason I was considering it, is that I actually like using the Orange branding via the phones ' jog' wheel,
and the Kaiser's Orange has a 'go to ..' at bottom right screen (and rh softkey)
that allows me to personalise the sidebar. the WM 5 one does not.
I have searched all over the place for any rom or plug-in that would give me that later Orange, but can't find one.
only frustration led to my posting ...
thanks for stopping me from bricking my phone.
regards,
Kevin

orange uk rom for universal

hi all,this is my first question on this site.This site is incredible for the wealth of info put forward by its member,credit to all you guys.i have flashed with a couple of the roms on my universal mainly tmobile and o2 and imate,but i desperately want to try the orange rom,does anyone know where i can download this from.thank you in advance.also praise due to buzz,what a techie,gr8 stuff.THANX
thats brilliant, i wouldn't have the guts to do that, just a few questions
1.Which ROM have you found the best out of the box? (from the 1st turn on)(added applications etc)
2.say you are on O2, were you able to still make calls/txt/mms on the other roms, (changing the settings etc maybe)
I have an Orange M5000 that im using as a bluetooth modem right now to use on the internet though GPRS (not in a 3G area)(only because u get 1gb allownce for the first 3months!), I would like to help you out with my ROM but i wouldnt even know where to start
THANX FOR YOU REPLY.I WOULDNT ASK YOU TO DO ANYTHING YET,i have done a lot on both the magician that i have and the universal.i have read a lot of discussion on these topics on this website.in my experience,if you are on a contract then yes you are dead right with what you say.at the moment on my device i have about 30 programs on it,it runs suitably fast enough for me.i have unlocked and unhidded the extrom and deleted it.i have an o2 exec running bits of tmobile and a bit of o2,because i have an tmobile sim.the unit is superb despite the neg comments on it,i have had masses of pdas and this is the coolest.currently i have xda exec,mda compact,fujitsu loox720(TOP CLASS PDA VERY DIFFICULT TO BEAT),TUNGSTEN T3,NOKIA9210,SHARP SL860.I would read more on here though because you can increase the confidence level and the level of knowledge u have.the way to do it is to unlock the extrom then soft reset,then unhide it then soft reset have u can see whats on your extended rom.i have an extra 10 meg now i am waiting for buzz god to find out how to delete the partition.the orange has the best today screen interface hence why i want to try it.the files can be copied onto a pc then zipped and posted.only try it though once you are comfortable.flashing roms onto the pda is far more gods will,wouldnt recommend that unless you are totally confident.
yes you can change the settings although i am happy with the config at the moment,easier just to install the extrom bits :shock:

~~ AGAIN. For all who always gets errors during ROMupdate ~~

Ok. I decided to write a short tutorial (because it is very very SIMPLE!!! ), how to upgrade any of the ROMs to any of Universal (jasjar, exec, qtek...), because I found 70% of the Universal upgrading etc forum posts are something like: "I can't upgrdae...", "I get an error message..." "coutry ID error..", etc.
1. Download the ROM you want to install
2. Best way to use winRAR to unpack it to a folder
3. There are 3 ROMs in the package: ms_.nbf (ExtendedROM), nk.nbf (CE ROM), radio_.nbf (Radio ROM)
4. Select those (from between this 3 ROMs) which you don't want to install
5. Delete these
6. Copy to the folder my attached file (MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe). This is the file which makes the install workable for all models of Universal.
7. Make your Universal in bootloader mode. (Push Light button + Power button + resetbutton at the same time) A lot of people get error message at the first time if they were not in bootloader mode. Those people can install the ROM the second time. If you are in bootloader mode you won't get error message.
8. Doubleclick to MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe. A window come up with the old ROMs and the new ROMs which will be upgraded. When this windows comes up, it is very important to wait a few seconds (5sec is enough) before you push the upgrade button.
9. Upgrade.
10. Wait until the installation program says in a window: Congratulations. Push OK button.
11. Pull out the USB cable from the Universal.
12. Do a cold reset (push the two menu buttons ("-") on the keyboard + the reset button at the same time (all of this three)
13. Everything should be fine from this time. You have to calibrate the screen and do some tutorial...
(14. If you want your Universal not to install ExtendedROM, make a softreset after setup is complete. (a popup window pops up you have 3 seconds before it installs ExtendedROM))
That's it.
It woked for me anytime in any case with any of Universals.
I hope this will help for lots of people.
Cheers
Cool! 8)
This way I see it is that there are many people out there with these (and many other) basic questions that want answering and indeed the same questions keep cropping up. A post like this is great BUT it's visibility only lasts a couple of days untill it gets swamped by more recent threads - I don't see the mod's stickying anything!!!!!
Hence: this forum could be SO much better if each section had a GUIDES area where people can submit threads like this!

I'm totally agree!
HEY MODERATORS!
underwurlde, I have an alternative suggestion. If moderators don't push this to a special place, we have to write here something like "..." twice a day. :lol: :wink:
Why don't you put it in this forum's wiki resource? I'm sure a lot of users would be very grateful for this information!

Okay. It seems you did not read my first post.
To put your Universal into bootloader mode, read 7th point.
And how do you know you are in bootloader mode?
You can see just a blank screen with the title serial or USB on the top and something like v1.00 on the bottom. You will recognize it.
I hope :?

Ever watch??? This is one of my favorite films. But I cannot draw any parallel between this film and your post, but I'm sure it is because I'm hungarian and my english is something that your german So, sleng is standing above my english knowledge.
I just posted some instructions on Wiki - I hope they help
Per the suggestion, I just posted some instructions on Wiki. Take a look an see what you think. Hopefully more can be added and these can be refined to be more understandable. At least it's a start.
Here is the Wiki Universal page http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Universal
This is the three I added, under How to upgrade to the latest ROM (currently 1.30.68)
Detailed Instruction On How To Upgrade with Bootloader method http://wiki.xda-developers.com/inde...tion On How To Upgrade with Bootloader method

Cool!
olliesshop, if you want you can use my tutorial to add more things to the wiki site. I think mixing of your and mine tutorial would be enough for the most helpless people too. I missed from mine removeing SD and SIM card, and not to use USB hub.
I hope, one day people will understand this very very "sofisticated" method.
To Deiota It looks like when you are in bootloader mode without things in the center. (But there are when you completed the upgrade.)
Hello!
Thanks you all for your help!
I've already did the upgrade! But I have a "stupid" (maybe) question.
When I was upgrading my Qtek 9000 with JASJAR_WWE_13076_164_10900_wwe_ship.exe, it appeard a photo of a I-mate PDA, but not Jasjar. Is it OK? Is this ROM for my Qtek 9000 (or Jasjar)?
I realized that the package software that comes with I-mate is best, at least more complete then Qtek! Another thing, why or how is it possible that the same device, comes with WM5 (both) and some features included in I-mate and not in Qtek. I'm talking about the "Device unlocked" that happears in the Today Screen.
I just want to confirm that this ROM is right for me, and that It is best than my Qtek Original one!
Should be ok
From what I understand this imate ROM upgrade should work for all the HTC Universal phones, including; Universal Dopod 900 / Qtek 9000 / MDA Pro / I-mate JASJAR / O2 Xda Exec / SPV M5000 / Qtek v1640. What's amusing is when I did the upgrade to my imate Jasjar it got locked on the blue splash screen (the one with the imate logo) and now I had to ship it in for Warranty service ... time since failure 5 days and counting. I expect it back end of next week at the earliest.
I'm glad it worked for you !!!

All the models have just different names but totally the same hardware (with just different paintings) because there are different service providers who want to sell it. Each service provider has a fantasy-name like O2 service provider sells it as Exec, Qtek sells it as 9000, i-mate sells it as Jasjar...
Clear?
off topic, sorry
Yo!
@Tuningszocske,
yeah there is a scene in Shawshank where Andy is trying to get money to build a library so he asks the Governor if he can write a letter - to which he agrees 'write as many as you want':
So he does: One a day. Every day. Unitl he actually gets a response, which effectively says: 'Here's $200, now go away' - So he writes TWO letters every day!!!!! Guess what? He eventually gets what he wants. :lol: This is the parallel I was making re: continually 'bumping' this thread.
The squeaky wheel always gets the grease!
Andy
Not really!
well, first I want to be sure that the Rom JASJAR_WWE_13076_164_10900_wwe_ship.exe is the right for me, since the screen that appear while upgrading has a I-mate K-Jam or something!
Second, I understand that the Software that come with one can be different from another, has it happens here!
But the MAIN Windows Mobile 5, I don't understand how...
The main thing I noticed is the "device unlocked" on today screen...
My usband has a Mio A210 that has WM5 and has the same Today item, "device unlocked". My question is why the Wtek version of Rom doesn't have uit? New version of WM5? Old one? Just different?

Take a look http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Universal . I updated the "Detailed Instruction On How To Upgrade with Bootloader method" instructions, by merging both.

Deiota!
For your first question: YES IT IS A RIGHT ROM FOR YOUR DEVICE. JUST COME FROM ANOTHER SERVICE PROVIDERS. DON'T BE AFRAID YOU WON'T HAVE ANY PROBLEM WITH IT!
For second: yes, it might be that your husband has a different version of wm5. It is something like there are many types of laptops, and there are many types of windows, and you can choose which windows you install on which laptop, but you cannot install windows on a macintosh (apple) hardware or a TabletPC, which is something similar than a normal laptop, but with a few specialities. Qtek9000/O2Exec/i-mate Jasjar... has the same hadrware like a Dell/Toshiba/HP laptops with totally the same hardware inside (same RAM size, same videocard type and capacity, same harddisk...)
So, do it.
I wouldn't injure you not for the soul of me, but if after these tutorial you don't understand the procedure, you should ask somebody to do it before you make an irreversible error during upgrading!!!! IT IS DANGEROUS,YOU CAN MAKE YOUR DEVICE TOTALLY UNUSEABLE!

HTC TyTN WM6 Upgrade ... Need Help!

Dear all,
I contacted HTC for my device upgrading and ROM updates, and they direct me to this forum.
I have a TyTN unlocked device, and want to upgrade to WM6. I explored all what you posted here but couldn't decide which version and link is suitable for me. Any way, here down my device information, and I'm appreciating any help to upgrade my device to WM6.
Device Information:
Device Name: HTC TyTN (Unlocked)
Language: English
Processor: SC32442A - 400MHz
Memory: 49.05 MB
System: Windows Mobile 5.0 OS 5.1.195 (Build 14955.2.3.0)
That are all information I could get from my device
Need Help my friends.
After all, I beleive that HTC should have an upgrade area to support their devices.
Thank you in advance.
Hi there!
its good to know that HTC assistants sent you here on this forum !!
I can suggest you to go for the wm6 image black 2.5 as its been always the most stable for me, so read the wiki and all the documents to upgrade your hermes to that version.
http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=37&Itemid=26
and don't run in the upgrade, take your time to read everything and if you don't understand something, come back here.

It depends on your personal reasons for upgrading. If you want to upgrade because of more speed and more stability you should try Black 2.5. If you are doing it because of adventuresomeness you should give all of the great roms here a try.
But at least you should try Black 2.5, Duttys V2 and Custels 1.3 to find out which one is the best for you. You should also try different radios to see if theres a difference in your area.
And don't forget the most important object: read mrvanx upgrade guides very very carefully and follow every step exactly.
be aware that the ROMs here are *unofficial* and *unsupported* ROMs.
HTC will NOT help you out if you screw up your device.
if you are unsure about flashing, then stay with the stock ROM.
I have a UK unlocked Tytn and would very strongly recommend Black 2.5.
My first ever ROM upgrade was Black 1.2 and it was soo god. 2.0 was even better and 2.5 better still. Have had no problems, battery life is much better, doesn't lockup/freeze any more, loads more memory available.....i could go on.
Go for it - follow mrvanx's upgrade guide. he makes it very easy
Flashig roms is one way... be careful...
When I first flashed a WM6 Rom on to my HERMES I made sure I read all the preinstall instructions very carefully as I didn't have a clue about flashing. MR VANX's guide is excellent, follow it carefully and you can't go wrong.
I have now successfully flashed numerous ROMS on to my device.
No-one can tell you which is the best ROM as they are all excellent for their own different features and customisations. You will need to try a few and see which you like best.
Good Luck.
I highly doubt
That an HTC representative sent someone here for ROM updates to WM 6.0.
If they did and are caught, they will probably be terminated.
I deal with HTC regularly and they don't condone or encourage our methods of tuning and research.
Be careful out there.
Thank you
Thank you a lot for your replies guys. They helped me a lot. I'll do the upgrade and will back to you with the results. Thanks again.

It always amazes me how corporate structures can be so schizoid. I too have received- from in-the-trenches personel- a pointer to this site specifically for beta testing WM6 Push. Conversely, the moderators here made it clear that management at HTC was a major impetus behind MS's request that the ftp archives be pulled.
The kicker for me is that the Wiki on HTC's US site specifically points to this XDA-developers and those postings are all vetted by someone at HTC USA. I'm thankful for that because that's how I found this site in the first place.
My Upgrading Status
First of all, I would like to add my voice to (teambnet) that I'm thankful for them to made me know this website and forum in the first place.
OK, about my upgrading status guys, I did exactely as shown in mrvanx.org website and did install WM6 Black 2.5, everything is gone fine except one thing, that the button of contact voice tag is not working. When I push that button, it gives me a message "Error opening the shortcut or locating the target filename.", I tried then to assign the shortcut to a program by going to Start --> Settings --> Buttons, but I couldn't find the program that should be assigned. I don't know if my problem are clear or not but I tried to explain as much I could. Any suggestions to solve that?
Thanks all,

I always suspected that secretly HTC were using us as beta testing guinea pigs, now it looks like I was right! And half of the fixes for their bugs are created by developers on this site.
Seriously though, if your Hermes is no longer covered by the original HTC warranty (as mine was from the very first day I got it, since I bought it from an "unauthorized" distributor), then HTC have nothing to lose by pointing someone to this site. They might as well have said, "Flush it down the toilet for all we care..."
John
HTC's wiki is just like ours, anyone can edit it... So i doubt that HTC themselves put a link to XDA on their wiki, but someone else probably did..
You need to install the voice commander CAB located on the first page of BLACK2.5 Then remap the button.
You should read thru the numerous posted before asked already resolved issues. Congrats on the UPGRADE!!!

Finally Finished
Hi all,
Thank you stuckes, I did as you told me and everything gone very nice. WM6 is a nice OS, not that much different from WM5 at least for me. But, it's nice. Thank you all for your help in that.
I got a question, when I would to upgrade, there are many versions of WM6, Black2.5 and other versions, where can I find a complete comparison with screenshots of them to decide if I'm gonna change to another one or stick to black 2.5?
Regards,
Arnie gets tough with the chefs.....

New to HD HELP!

Hi,
please help an HD newbie...
I like the standard TouchFlo on my, more or less, still standard HD but would simply like a plain black background on all the Tabs/Pages or whatever (The home/weather/ music etc ).
Can anyone give me a simple cab or something equally straighforward to do this?
Also, I have a different contacts program running (funcontacts) It is called fine when I call it from contacts via phone etc but NOT from the People tab, All People button. How do I get my HD to do this please.
Any help much appreciated!

The cab below should give you the same background image across all TouchFLO tabs. Install it and soft-reset. As far as I know you cannot re-map the "All People" softkey from the People tab...

Thanks CW but I'm afraid it only partially worked. All the tab screens went black but the ino at the top of each went really weird and cr*ppy!
Anymore ideas anyone please.

I should have looked earlier at what rom you are running. You have quite an older version of TouchFLO in your rom. The cab I posted was intended for a much newer one. That's why it didn't work as I described it would. You could look into Maxycy's software to customize your TouchFLO. Other than that, I don't know what else still supports the older version.
Stupid question?
Why is it an old ROM in a brand new phone?
Shouldn't it be bang up to date? I had to wait for delivery because they were waiting for 'new' phones!
Am I just stupid?

No, HTC / the vendor is. Said you had a 1.19.xxxx rom when they have up to 1.59.xxxx released now. You should look into updating it. Are you interested in custom roms? If not, you should still look into updating to the latest official rom
in fact even the most recent stock roms (provided by operator) are often outdated compared to the roms you can find here (@xda)
they are mostly based:
newer builds of wm6.1 or wm6.5beta
some parts from other (newer) devices
optimzed and customized by the authors
i suggest you to read the hd section to see what u can do with your phone
Will do guys, thanks.
BTW, got my black screen on all tabs! Just had to do a bit of work and use Manila Editor. I will take a look at custom ROMs but they scare me
Maybe I'll pluck up the courage, just worried I'll brick my device!
Thanks again.

Will do guys, thanks.
BTW, got my black screen on all tabs! Just had to do a bit of work and use Manila Editor. I will take a look at custom ROMs but they scare me
Maybe I'll pluck up the courage, just worried I'll brick my device!
Thanks again.

Flashing is easy if you are well informed beforehand. Just do the research before you flash. Read the Wiki and my guide on flashing roms. Links are in my signature.

a WM6 rom inc Orange branding out there ?

hi,
Administrators:
if this has been covered before please delete this post and I will search AGAIN !
can anyone point me to any WM6 rom for a Trinity that includes the full Orange branding ?
put simply, I do like to use the the Orange sidebar via the jog-wheel on my Trinity.
I genuinley have searched and searched, and whilst there are many fine WM 6 roms, I have been unable to identify one with Orange on it.
thanks to the great advice on here I have flashed a couple of Trinity's/SPV M700's to Orange WM5,
but like the Orange WM 6 (which I have on a Tytyn II) much better.
thanks,
Kevin
after much searching again, I still cannot identify a WM 6 rom that has Orange in it,
or even any reference to anyone having extracted just the branding.
surely I can't be the only one who would like Orange on WM 6 for Trinity ?
as it is out there for Tytn II.
I really would appreciate someone pointing me in the right direction,
or at least letting me know I am on a wild goose chase.
