Hello,
Can anyone of you help me to upgrade my Htc diamond 1 from 6.1 to 6.5 Windows version. I am also looking at having a different radio version than the one that company usually provides. I have RUU in my device.
many thanks!
It's all here...
All the information you need to do what you're requesting is right here in this tutorial! Don't ask anyone which is the best ROM because there isn't a best ROM - there are ROM's you like and ROM's you don't.
There are quite a few 6.5 ROM's available, you'll just have to try them and see which suits your needs

Just a little bit of info needed as I am new to all this cooking ROMS.
I am using the Core Kitchen which I have found easy when extracting a ROM and I have been using the schaps ROM as it contats the RGU files with the packages as oppose to the Black Roms which dont and I am not confident enough to be able to sort out that mess yet.
The question is in two parts and I hope you can help me a little.
Part 1: when you extract the ROM what is contained in the OS.nb file the reas on I ask is I want to get a Basic from MS ROM so I can start with my own ROM building as oppose to someone elses (VERY GOOD I MIGHT ADD) ROM.
Part 2: where can I get the RTM M$ WM6 ROM from a rom without any modifications or any added packages just the M$ PDA/PHONE ROM.
Please help this is the only two bits that im really lost with.
I have a Vario 2 on T Mobile uk
you might want to look at the FTP for vanilla wm6 roms...
the last time i checked, it was still there.
I have seen the Vanilla ROM is that the M$ RTM base OS then ???
hey guys,
can you tell me what specs you enter into duttys tool as im having problems?
thanks in advance
PDAJAS
ImateJasjam (HERMES100)
Radio: 1.20.31.10
Rom: Black IV Shadow
Olipro 2.10
Telstra AUS
Not sure im new to all this myself as you can prob tell.
Vanilla ROM has too many missig files that I cannot even find according to the tutorial with CORE an official ROM wont have any missing files schaps only has 1 which i know where to find it so can put it in the right place.
It just seems easier to want to start with a RTM official M$ rom and build on it rather than hack bits out of an already cooked rom.
the FTP?
Where is this? (it's early for me, is it in the wiki?)

Its on the Wiki i looked at Cooked Roms on the main wiki page and then it gave me a list of them that were avaliable. Vanilla was on the top of the list.
Skauk,
you can also give a look at the Dopod ROM posted here in the forum... even that its not the newes build, it has nothing added/mising; it could be a good start point.
Regards;
thankyou I will give dopod a look tonight then its so anoying that you cannot get hold of the latest builds that some of these people have so we might start without the bugs of previous builds...
if anyone knows where I can get a later build RTM that's not cooked already you would be number 1 on my xmas card list lol.
Dopod ispretty hard to work out also so anyone else help me find latest build wm6 so i can build on it ??

I would suggest you spend a little time in the upgrading section. As far as a stock windows mobile 6 rom, the problem is there aren't any yet. Although I think some upgrades may be coming along in the next few months. The roms here are pieced together from other machines or pulled from unreleased versions. I don't know of a true "stock" hermes wm6 rom at this point. You could get a WM5 rom to practice with which would show you what to expect, and what "comes with" though.
Good luck,
I have a CDMA HTC phone, the HTC Mogul. Now that HTC has released the first official ROM for it, I'm looking to start making custom ROM's.
What ROM cooking application is the best currently available that will work for CDMA ROM's? The HTC TyTn/Hermes is the closet GSM phone to the CDMA Mogul/Titan.
Also, what is the best .cab editor out there? I remember a couple years I ago I had a neat little proggy that let me extract them, replace any files I wanted in them, and the it re-cab'd them for me. I can't remember what the heck it was though, lol!?
Thanks! I already read the Wiki and all I could find was something for making WM5 ROM's and another one for HTC Wallaby ROM's. I couldn't find anything for WM6 ROM cooking that I could see. Please enlighten me
EDIT: Oh yeah, I'm Windows only. I have no Linux/Unix machines available. So maybe I can't do the ROM stuff at all?
Hello XDA Developers,
I'm searching this forum for a few days now for a pretty clean WM 6.1 rom, can be Dutch or English. I'm testing some fuctionalities in WM on PDA phones for my company so I don't need much extra software on the phone, the only real must is Office I guess.
In the list with official roms I've only find WM 6.0 versions. Here on the forums I only find WM 6.5 beta's or roms that are too big (in terms of extra tools & software) for my demands.
Can anybody help me with a stable WM 6.1 rom or give me a push in the right direction?
Regards
Think I just found the rom I was looking for. I tried CRCs Release 13.3 and I looks like this is just what I need.
Did you found a dutch version of wm 6.1 ??
I'm also looking for. Cant find it :S
Dude,
Recent clean Light rom, go with crc, it is a matter of preference though..
Good luck on your SEARCH..
Edit:
There is no official 6.1 rom for hermes, nor will there be a official 6.5 rom for hermes.
Peace,
Joshua
Hello.
I have a diamond with standard rom2.03.401.2 WWE.
SPB shell and s2u finally grew old and i want a new ROM. I want it to have Windows Mobile 6.5.5 Office 2010 and opengl drivers (for best performance). I want it clean and simple, nothing more than what i stated above and maybe sense 2.5.
I need help to find such a rom, and flashing help. I never flashed a non-official version. I've read the tutorials, but i want you to give me ROM recommendations and indicate which HardSPL i need to use and some basic instructions on what to do.
Thank you a lot.
Anyone ? Please help.
There are many WM6.5 ROMs in this forum, just try any one of them and choose which one you like best.
HTH.
hello i would like to know if you could help me decide... i have this htc diamond with a ROM 1.93.422.4 WWE wich is the one the phone brought and i wanted to know if theres a better ROM thn tht one and if its compatible with the phone... like ive been reading about this one 1.93.831.1 WWE but i dont know wich one is better or if its compatible.... help me please
If it's the first time you flash a ROM, you have to follow the HardSPL tutorial.
After your Diamond have HSPL, you can flash which ROM you want, there are lots of good ROM in this section, i suggest you Maemo ROMs but you should try it yourself.
I'm using Celoni Tribute ITA, he also released a WWE version with WM6.5.x and HTC Sense.
Im using 2.03.xxxx
Get them from the Diamond Stock ROM WIKI
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Diamond_Upgrades
hey thanks a lot but do i need to do a HSPL to upgrade to those ROMS? the shipped ones? and any HSPL would work? or i have to flash an specific one in order to upgrade the ROM to the shipped one 2.03.xxx ?
No it should flash fine if it is your operator
If it is a different operator, maybe, Im not sure
so i dont have to do any HSPL ? just run the rom with the phone on activesync and thts it? and i think my phone is not flashed with HSPL it will work without doing it?
If it's the right ROM for your phone you'll be able to flash it even without HSPL, but it has to be an official update, check on the HTC website for your IMEI.
I suggest you to use HSPL to have a very higher choose, there are lots of ROMs here, official ones are outdated nowadays.
ohhh ok thanks!!... is there any rom that lets me use htc sense on the diamond?
Sense is WM6.5
If you are going to flash a 6.5 ROM you need to unlock it and HardSPL etc
TouchFlo is the 6.1 version of sense, its almost the same without the eye candy
Hi,
Check this out and pick what suits you best.

I've been using GTX for a couple days w/out problems, although it's not the fastest ROM I've ever used looks-goodies/speed ratio is very reasonable.
Of course you have to HSPL your phone before flashing.
Also It's highly recommended to use radio 1.17.25.09 which I think is the latest.
I've had it installed even before flashing GTX and used it with wm 6.5 ROMs in USA, Mexico, Canada, Germany & Greece w/out problems. It's Quad-Band.
