Basic ROM update ques

Hey everyone,
Is it necessary to HardSPL before every ROM update?
I have dutty rom but bbc iplayer dosen't work on it so thinking about changing to another one...
Also what is the best way to pick a ROM? What do you compare?
Thanks
No, once you've installed a Hard-SPL it will work for every ROM update. Well, Hard-SPL's that support unsigned ROM's will work for every ROM update. Hard-SPL's that only support signed ROM's will work only on signed ROM's.
As for comparing ROM's; that is very personal.. Most popular ROM's are very much the same if it comes to speed. Differences are mainly in functionality, stability and the way they look out of the kitchen. Read the ROM topics and find out if what they have to offer suits you!
Do you want a tweaked and full functional ROM with a lot of applications cooked in? Or do you prefer a light or naked ROM, so you can save your space for just the applications you prefer and tweak it yourself?
Do you want it to look like a HTC stock Diamond or do you like what some cooks have done with the way the taskbar and TF3D look? Remember that you can install all applications, do some tweaking and change the look of your Diamond yourself.
As for stability, read the member remarks in the ROM's topics! That will give you a clue what to expect.
Just a question from my side which I cant seem to find an answer for (might be using the wrong search syntax). A ROM update should not affect the workings for your cell provider? As long as you know the MMS and other settings you can use any English (home language) ROM and your device will still pick up your service provider without a hitch?
My reason for asking is because I have noticed that even though HTC has released a new ROM past 1.93, if I go to the website enter my serial the only ROM I can download is still the 1.93. Thats why I am asking this n00b question...

Files inside TF3D is called or named, Manila, so you need to know what version of TF3D you are using. Go to your Settings Tab, then About and you can see what version of TF3D you are using.

Hey,
I definitely understand your confusion. I'm absolutely no newcomer to Windows Mobile, but I was pretty baffled when I arrived here after a few years gone.
Let's see if I help you somewhat...

You propably use Manila v2.0, which means that themes for Manila v2.1 and v3, are not compatible with your device.
BUT!
First off, you should take a look at giving your phone a new ROM.
The kitchen cooks for TouchHD here on xda, are FABOLOUS! Right now, your Touch HD is slow as hell. Try and swipe the menus. Notice the lags. Enter the application pane. Swipe up and down. See?
The kitchen cooked ROMs in here, replaces the one you have - and gives you up to 20x faster performance (no kidding, and no exhaggeration).
I myself, use Laurentius26 v3.55 (www.laurentius26.net -- you have to become member of his website to download the rom, but it's all free, so don't worry).
Most people like Dutty's ROMs also - they're great too!
No matter what you choose, I promise you'll feel that your Touch HD has transformed into a speed monster. Especially in the menus!
Oh yeah - and as a side dish, you get the newest version of Manila and TouchFlo3D. Personally, I think that the version in the Laurantius26-ROM that I use, is so super-duper, that I don't want to spend time looking for other themes. I have thought of designing/programming a completely new GUI myself, but I gave up, as I don't have Microsoft Visual Studio.
But you have the oppertunity if you patch with a new ROM. I highly recommend you do that first thing.

Your manila can be found by going to settings tab in TF3D and then scrolling down to 'About'
It should state something like TouchFLO 3D 2.1.38658.2. The first 2 numbers i.e. 2.1 in this case state which manila you have
There appears to be no official update from HTC for a Indian rom. You can however update to any coooked rom by using either USPL or HSPL. I'd recommend you follow this guide and read up on the wiki. Available cooked roms can be found in this forum.
EDIT
Any further queries regarding rom upgrade should be posted in this thread or thread of rom you decide to flash to.
Try and keep this thread on themes please.

Then you don't have manila 2.0 or 2.1.
No one can provide you with the information 'which rom is best' as every rom appeals to different people. Best thing you can do is read each rom thread and make your own conclusion. As a pointer, the most widely used roms generally cooked by the following guys:
Duttythroy, Miri, NRGZ28, Laurentius26 & kwbr.
All of the latest roms generally use manila 2.1 and either wm6.1 or wm6.5 (should say on title of each thread)

I want to install this ROM

[ROM][WWE][22.07.2009] Miri WM 6.5 23009 :: V 25.0 [ONLINE]
So will you help me how to start.
And after the Upgrade my Phone is Unser Warranty or NOT.
and How can i restore the Orignal ROM after the Upgrade, if i want to do that in future.
For help on flashing the ROM, read the guide in my signature.
For how to restore the stock ROM, read this thread where it says: How to reflash Stock/Shipped SPL - STEP BY STEP - FOR WARRANTY REASONS ONLY!
Also, it will be under warranty IF you restore it before you send it back for warranty purposes. If you send it back with a custom ROM/SPL on it HTC will most likely not warranty it.

I saw your Dummy Post.
Am not a techie person. So help me how to do that. Which MEthod is Easy
It really doesn't get any clearer/easier than that. That is a step-by-step guide. If you can't follow that I would suggest not flashing your device, or get someone to do it for you.
You should also read up on the Wiki. It will help you out a lot too.

ROM: Flashmore WM 6.5.3, HTC Sense Leo 2.02 Dusk-More V2.1 - What?!

Hi there,
I'm new here. I got a HTC TD2 from Vodafone. I've read many threads here but I still don't know what to do to reach my aim. Actually I got WM 6.5 installed. But I want to change some things and modify my smartphone.
My favourite theme is the "Tesalat_Metal V2_Theme".
But I simply don't know how to act to realize that theme on my HTC. Is it possible to install it on WM 6.5? Or have I to install WM 6.1 again?
And what are the following things: ROM Flashmore WM 6.5.3, HTC Sense Leo 2.02 Dusk-More V2.1?
I hope you can understand what I want and I hope that someone here can help me. I just need a kind of tutorial how to modify my phone..
Thx
MarcusAntonius
Firstly, since you got the Touch Diamond 2, you should probably head over to the Touch Diamond 2 forum (aka: Topaz)
secondly, ROMs are basically a different version of the Operating System that you can "flash" onto your phone - although you should note that doing this can void your warranty.
thirdly, those different ROMs that you had mentioned, are basically different ROM programmers - aka: "Chefs" - that modify the base ROM is give different benefits. These benefits may include increased speed, increased eye-candy, increased functionality, decreased "junk" on the phone, and other performance optimizations.
since you are also a newbie here, another suggestion for just general forum use: use the "Search" button =]
Good luck and have fun!
Thank you for the quick answer! But what have I to do to modify my phone into the "Tesalat_Metal V2_Theme"? Do i have to flash the ROM? I know that doing so can void my warranty.. But there must exist a tut or something like that where I can read how to act! I already used the search function but didn't find an answer..
Greetings!
If the theme is a .cab file then just install it and restart your phone, if it's a ROM then you have to flash it! you can use the flashing guide.
grts.

You would be best served flashing a new ROM in order to upgrade TF3....and also doing some reading about what versions are available.
There is Manila 2.1 w/sense and Manila 2.5...
Read more here and see all the custom ROMS:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=453
TYSM Acid
i was searching a way to update tf3d. best without flashing.
Anyway, thanks a lot for the help!
Yes there befor years i found a CAB to update only the old Touch FLO with newer version but i don`t remember where is that CAB
Also the best way to feel the diference is to flash new ROM with Latest 2.1 Sense manila
TY tsalta
Then i must think in flash my device with a new ROM.
Any recomendation? I prefer a light and fast one, i will charge with the software i like later, but prefer one with the basic OS apps, office, and the latest manila. If its possible , in spanish.
thanks all again for your help!!
The Fastes ROM from my expirience are NRG ROMs they are not very clear i mean about the APPS but have some usefull apps cooked anyway the ROM is good and fast if you want bug free rom for everyday use and all to be smooth flash NRG 21898 with manila 2.1Sense 30March version and all wil be fine.
its WW rom not Spanish.
This is if you want to have a good ROM just to flash and to go ... if you want a super super faster rom without Manila and etc.. to use it for other i mean for some UI shell then you can flash some really CLEAR rom that is without Manila without Titanium and without APPS.
+1
The cab to update Touchlfo3d is huge if I rememeber and very very very slow and laggy once installed.
Flash to EnergyRom, very quick and stable and beautiful...
TYSM to all
just one more thing... a link to an easy explained way about how to flash my device?
thanks all again and excuse my english please

Adding Theme/New ROM

Hey guys this isnt my first time flashing my device but ive run into a little problem:
I flashed my HTC diamond before to the Gen.Y D2 R5.5 ROM. After I had to return my device for warranty so i flashed it back to the original Rogers Rom and Radio.
I got my new device and now ive been looking at these few ROMS or themes or w/e u want to call them:
|6.5.5|WWE| ★ Energy Series (23563/21899) ★ |Apr 21| Sense 2.5 ! - GTX Themed is what i want to put on my phone if i put this ROM
GTX Sense 2.5 - (looks beautiful but i can see its cancelled and is continued by the lower ROM chef)
[PRJ] [THEME] [Prev] GTX Sense 2.5 Theme - Continuation of development - Continuation of the above one and is so nice but I dont know how to add it since its a theme and not a rom. Also how do i put it if i just got my diamond straight from Rogers.
I would like to put the last of the 3 but Im not sure how since it isnt a ROM so can someone please tell me step by step?
Also if I want to put the first one as well is all i need to do again do flash it with signed hardspl 1.93...and then upgrade the radio and put that rom? Because I tried to use hardspl signed 1.93 but it doesnt show anything in the folder but a .nbh file and no custom ruu app inside.
All help is greatly appreciated
Thank
sorry guys i just needed the hardspl developers version i was using the signed version
