Is it safe to downgrade the ROM on dash ? - HTC Excalibur

I have a T-Mobile Dash with WM 6
currently i have the ROM version 1.22.531.8 . my question is that is it safe to downgrade it to tmobile's 1.22.531.6 ROM or 1.22.531.4 ?
The reason i need to downgrade is that i want to unlock the phone, however it seems like with the new ROM version, it was not able to unlock it.
TIA!!

Official HTC ROM download

Hello,
I bought a new fantastic TouchPro2 Orange-branded.
I would like to install the lastest official no-brand ITALIAN ROM WM6.1 from the HTC website.
But I cannot download it because my serial number is associated to the Orange phones.
Can you help me to find this ROM or give me a valid serial number (so that I can use it again as soon as HTC will release the official WM6.5 ROM)?
Thank you in advance to all.
P.S. If someone is interested to my unlocked Orange-branded ROM 1.19.61.3 (51489) WWE no problem for me to share it !

Sorry for ignorance: if is the official HTC Rom, why do I need to installa HARD SPL?
your phone is set to only allow Orange ROMs - I think it's the CID
if you install HardSpl it allows you to flash ROMs not intended for your device and they also don't need to be signed
if you SIM-unlock your device using this forum you'll have the option to change the CID of your device - this will allow you to use any signed ROM even without HardSpl
but as I'm new to all this please wait till someone more experienced verifies this post
I think the previous Orange ROM was better than the official HTC ROM, anyway it was in english so this one is OK for me.
I'm looking forward to the official release of the WM6.5 HTC ROM !

unbranding HTC fuze and load new SA rom
I have a HTC Fuze At&T phone which I sim unlocked to use on Vodacom/MTN network. The phone software is really crappy and I was hoping that I can get a rom update on this site so that I can flash the SA version and hopefully get the GPS and browser to function.
I successfully did that for my Experia but cant find simular info for the HTC fuze or Touch pro as it is called in SA.
Any help will be great.
thanks

CDMA Hards SPL needed for WM 6.5 update??

I'm curious
From what I've read only people with Hard SPL unlocked TP2s can upgrade to the official WM 6.5.
What will happen for CDMA users who cannot yet unlock their TP2's?
Will HTC provide an update tool which will work regardless or will we still be waiting for the Hard SPL unlocker in order to update.
I'm thinking the ROM update will include a tool as it wouldn't make sense to offer a ROM update without a way to actually update.
Am I wrong?

The only way of doing it is using the GoldCard way...
wow. no only cooked roms need to have your phone to be unlocked. stock roms from the carriers do not need for your phone to be unlocked.

Which is what I thought but I read a few places that T-Mobile users had to have theirs unlocked to update it to one on HTC's website.. ok well nevermind then!
The T-Mobile TP2 and the Unbranded TP2 are different devices. The official ROM on HTC's website is intended for Unbranded devices. T-Mobile users (such as myself) have to wait for T-Mobile to release a ROM for their own devices

It sounds good to me, but when I felt the impossibility of not being able to downgrade I was forced to sell it as a tmobile device, since for some strange and not logical reason, it did not register on the sprint network in any way and the only option that sprint gave me is to send it to warranty:crying:
