Upgrading O2 XDA Ignito - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development

Hi every one
I would like to thank every one in this forum for all the great help & support.
I have learned a lot from here on how to tweak my 1st windows mobile
My HTC is O2-UK branded :
XDA Ignito
DIAM300 64M
SPL-2.07.0000
ROM version: 2.10.206.1 WWE
ROM date: 24/06/2009
Radio: 1.13.25.24
Protocol version: 52.62.25.34H_1.13.25.24
Using O2 official ROM upgrade
[Xda Ignit2_UK_2.10.206.1_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.62.25.34_1.13.25.24_Ship.exe]
What I want to do is just put a clean ROM (may be HTC original) without all the additional software that comes with the branded ROM
The reason for this is my windows folder is filled with unnecessary stuff that I can’t delete (like opera9 & some ringtones) which is taking some precious space (file properties show it's ROM files).
My question is:
1- Which HardSPL should I use?
I’ve read this great tutorial & I’ve gathered that I need Unsigned-Hard-SPL-Diamond-OliNex & this (correct me if I am wrong)
Thanks to cozzykim for his MiniTUT but does it matter if I have SPL 2.07 & install an older version (like Unsigned-Hard-SPL-Diamond-OliNex 1.40 or 1.93) or should I wait for an upload of SPL 2.07 ??
2- Does it matter if the SPL I install is signed or not when it comes to installing cooked ROMs in this forum vs official HTC ROMs ?
3- If I want to revert back to the stock ROM for warranty reasons, can I still do that? & how ? (revert back to same SPL & ROM) ?
I've got the extracted files from the official rom which include [01_SPL.nb] which is SPL-2.07.0000, (if anyone is interested I can upload it).
So can I reinstall this in future? or just run the full official ROM.exe installer to put everything back as it was (including original SPL)?
Before any one starts flaming about searching before opening a new thread, I did search (spent two weeks reading through different posts) & I did not find any mention (or upload) of Hard SPL 2.07 (only found 1.93).
I found previous threads with similar questions not answered so thought may be it's better to open a new thread than digging & bringing up a one year old thread.
Pardon me for my noobish questions but this is my 1st flash & I am sure it will be easier afterwards but I hope answering these questions will make it easier for noobs like me & to those with XDA ignito.
Any help is appreciated & if any moderator thinks this is a repeat post & should be closed then feel free to do so.

I have O2 Ignito and this is what I did:
1. Hard SPL - I'm using OliNex 1.40
2. Reset to bootloader to check Hard SPL .
3. Copy GSM rom to Internal Storage ( file name DIAMIMG.nbh )
4. Flash Rom ( put reset button - keep holding volume down button and back button - then release reset button ).
5. Wait until it's finish then reset.
6. Done
My fone doesn't have warranty so I don't care to roll-back to stock rom . I can't help you but I think someone can.
Good Luck !

Many thanks for the reply
One question though, does it matter if you have a newer SPL than 1.40?
I mean did you have the same SPL (1.40) before installing OliNex 1.40 or it doesn't really matter what version is in your phone?
(mine is 2.07 & I am not sure if it's ok to install an older version like 1.40 or 1.93)
Thanks

Ok I've done it
Same steps as thangkls
1. Hard SPL - used OliNex 1.40 [Unsigned-Hard-SPL-Diamond-OliNex].
2. Reset to bootloader to check Hard SPL .
3. Flashed with A.Z.T.O.R. Re-Evolution
& I must say, it looks great so far (especially the landscape feature).
I'll worry about the warranty later (though I think restoring a newer SPL 2.07 should work the same way, as explained here)
Thanks again for the help
Now am off to test all those ROMs .... wohoooooooo

Look at my signature:

Look at my signature
Actually this was the 2nd ROM on my list to test.
I liked A.Z.T.O.R. Re-Evolution but had to abandon due to a keyboard bug.
Gen.Y D2 R5.3 looks great with 15MB more storage space & same memory use.
No bugs so far.

up-grade to wm6 and reset problem

Hello
I am new here, i have a qtek 9000 that run wm5, what should i do to up-grade to wm6. What up-grade do you suggest i need in order to increase the performance of my phone.
Here is all the information that i have on the phone.
rom version : 1.30.77 wwe
rom date 02/20/06
radio version; 1.11.00
Protocol version: 42.45.P
ExtROM version: 1.30.9090
The second problem that i hace is that the phone is constanly reseting, i don't know why, but when battery reach approx. 80% it turn off and reset. Then i have to plug in the charger in order for it to restart? Can anybody help me
thanks
My first post !
Hi, for the reset problem I suggest you to look to the wiki, you will find some types of strategies to fix this, it seems to be a battery problem(just my opinion). For the upgrade you have to look wath's the boothloader version of your device. If you have 1.00, you have to upgrade the boothloader before flashing a new wm6 rom. In any case you will find all this and other informations in the wiki. When you will be done, if you want, I will suggest you the best roms available .
P.S.: excuse me for bad english.

before upograding you have first to make a lot ( I really mean it) of reading thru 1) XDA_wiki and 2) all 3d you can on the different wm6 available ROMs ( see upgrade wm6 section) You can have an idea of what are the problems users have/are encountering.
My 1 cent
a)Enter into bootlader mode ( pls don t ask how, look and search) and find out if you have a G3 device ( vers 1.0x) or G4 ( vers 2.x) . Depending on this you have to first check if the ROM upgrade you ve selected among the different available is OK for your device. Few ROMS infact have different version for G3 and G4) . If you have a bootload vers 1.0 or below, first upgrade to a more recent version before even thinking to upgrade ROM.
the upgrade Bootload tools are available in general on your device site ( I have an Imate , I have the sw there) or look and search here....in this site there is EVERYTHING! go to the ftp section , link unders XDA-Wiki, Universal and search
b) upgrade to Active e Synch 4.5
c) Create a folder where you ll put the selected Wm6 version that you ve picked and unzip it.
d) You ll see the following files:
EnterBL
Get device data
RUU.conf
Ruu.dl
Ruuenc.dll
UI.dll
ROMUPGRADE.exe AND !!!!
nk-.nbf ( this is the ROM UPGRADE)
ms.-nbf ( this is the external ROM)
This is almost all what you need to start to upgrade. Infact you might also want to upgrade to a most recent radio version ( radio._nbf) . I am using 1.15 that is very stable and powerfull but pls read comment of users using the selected Wm6 you ve picked and check their coments. A higher version is not implicitely a better version.It depends on Wm6 rom version and the operator you re using.
Therefore, if you want to upgrade the radio as well , proceed to the FTP of universal, and download the radio version you like . Unzip the file , copy and paste JUST the radio._nbf file to the folder above created.
e)Connect to AS and make the last synch before the upgrade and disconnect
f) take sim and sd card out.
g) put down firewalls and antivirus on your PC
h) open AS and uncheck File/connection Settings/ USB connection
i) connect device to PC, you ll see AS wont start ( of course)
l) enter into bootloader mode
m) click on Romupgrade.exe
n) follow EXACLY instructions on your PC screen...be cool, be patiente. It will take some 20 minutes....
when everything is finished , disconnect , do a NORMAL soft reset and here you are.
Flag again USB connection in AS and synch. you have now a wm6 version. I am using Ranju 7.1 and it flys as an angel on my JJ, but I suppose there are plety good ones around

All device info gone ???

Hey,
I'm pretty new at this, so I'll explain how i've gotten in to this.
1. Bought a HTC tytn UK and I wanted it in dutch
2. Since I couldn't find an original rom i flashed it to the dutch rom from shap's (wich is actually great)
3. Then i did find an original rom but wasn't able to flash it so i used "HTC Hermes SIM & CID Unlock - v3a"
4. The original dutch rom works fine now, except when i go to device info
Rom version: empty
Rom date: empty
Radio version: empty
Protocol version: empty
CPU: 8 squars
speed: 6 squarsBe...
No imei number and so on.
Can someone please help me, maybe in the future when i try to sell the phone this must be ok.
Thx a lot to all xda developers here !!!
edit: original bootloader and ipl were: SPL-2.05 IPL-1.04 (maybe it has something to do with that?)

1) you need to flash HardSPL
2) make sure you have flashed a new radio after using the CID/SIM unlocker, due to the fact that it downgrades it to a very old radio for it to work.
I had this issue when I tried a version of HTC Home Customizer that I found somewhere on the net.
To make it all come back, I had to hard reset, and not reinstall the program that caused it. I'm not sure if any other programs could cause that issue, or why it was caused.
I've flashed my device to HardSPL. now wich radio rom should I use?
I've found several radio rom but I don't have a clue wich one is best for me (Belgium, Mobistar)
flash a shipped ROM from here, there is a dutch HTC from there. get to boot loader, pressing the ok on the left, power on right, and stick stylus in at the same time. plug it to active sync, and run the exe file from the WM 6 rom upgrade/downgrade.

HTC HD upgrade to WM6.5

Hi
my goal is to install WM6.5 on my HTC HD mobile, this mean to upgrade SPL + ROM (Miri WM 6.5 23017 :: V 26.3)
Currently i got the HTC HD with the next configuration
Rom version: 1.18.707.3 (23358)WWE
Radio version 1.09.25.14
protocol version 52.49a.25.26U
SPL-1.14.0000
BLAC100 32 m
After reading the posts, i understand that first i need to flash the SPL in order to support and flash the new ROMs.
1. Which one of the HSPL should i use HSPLWrapper_Blackstone_156OliNex.exe or i need to choose Unsigned_HardSPL_for_Blackstone_OliNex.zip
(Just to remind i am on 1.14 spl now)?
2. Whether i can go directly from 1.14 SPL to 1.56 Olinex SPL ?
3. Why to install Olinex , because later i can flush any ROM on the device, is this correct ?
4. If something gone wrong and i want to return to my original configuration.
"0. be sure to first restore stock OS, and stock radio. stock SPL is always to be done last!!"
The stock SPL 114 is exist in the thread , but where i can get the stock OS and stock radio as written in your guide ?
Thank you for the assistance

[Q] Big Problem :(

I try to change my rom and everything was super till the procedure reach 15 % and stop and there were sighn that lost conecton to the PPC and my PPC die Would somebody help me ?? I love this PPC and if there is a way to bring it to life i will be very greatfull
...
youv bricked it dude, however its fixable.. you need to download your original rom (stock rom) and flash it to the device.
good luck hunting for you rom,you will probably find it on the xda artemis wiki so id start there if i was you..
when you have your original rom working on your device, download uspl 1.11.cmon..
(click in my sig to download, i have put a user guide inside.. however.. when it tells you to soft-reset, DONT..)
Uspl will basicly take the restrictions off your device so you can put any custom rom for the artemis on it.. (only the original rom will fix your problem though)
Rn
Artemis Original Roms Link
My computer can't establish conection with the PPC.There is no sighn of life even when put the usb in PPC.Should I keep trying diferent roms to find the right one ??
...
hello again..
when you turn your device on, what are the red numbers shown on your device startup/bootloader?
dont keep trying roms coz only the original will work.. anyway..
you should be able to see.. eg, my artemis info..
IPL: 3.04.0001
SPL: 1.11.cmon
GSM/RADIO: 02.94.90
OS: 3.15.0.0
just post your info (up) thats all ill need and ill send you the link to download your original rom..
(in some cases the rom is not for download, but fingers crossed eh..)
Rn
...
SPL: *.**.**** = you need original rom..
SPL: 1.11.cmon = any rom will flash, original rom not needed..
SPL: 1.11.0000 = some roms will flash, depending on size.. (original rom may be needed)
*dont worry bout pc not connecting for now
(there are other ways

over 3 million users and no reply?
Can't see why you started a new thread, Plus in the old thread you had all the info you need :/
Read through it carefully, anything anyone could tell you here would most likely be in the wiki!
Regards to your previous post in the other thread: Yes you will find ROMs for your device here
...showthread.php?t=492532
Just make sure you follow the right steps: if you have a G3 or G4 device
Also: Try posting your thread in the forum for your device, rather than Software Development forum
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=248
sorry im just very annoyed because its confusing and stuff, okay i downloaded manilla UI, once its downloaded i just rune the utility and it should be WM 6.1?
Yes, but make sure you have done a Hard or Soft SPL First! Otherwise risk bricking it..
Hard SPL: Click here
Soft SPL: Click Here
I'd recommend the Hard SPL as it will be permanent, also
"G4 users must be very careful with the ROM they select. The ROM has to be "G4 Safe""
Make sure the ROM you have downloaded is "G4 Safe" otherwise again you risk bricking the device
when i run hard spl it opens i press check doc and it loads and then it says launching soft spl then a black command box opens then closes and nothing happens. and im installing "WM6.1 (Manilla UI) v1.3" when im in the utility and press update it says "update to" its just blank.
right, its finished; and loaded all the pocet pc files and its the same nothing changes :S.
