Question about ROM upgrade

Hello everyone -
Newbie here at this stuff, and I was wondering if I can download the Universal ROM AKU3.5 and install it on my Verizon XV6700 phone?
Thanks.
P.S: Universal means it's for everyone? or is it another brand like HTC, Apache, etc.

Universal is a BRAND, just as Apache is a BRAND.
I suggest you read the Apache Wiki
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Apache
Not much info on there right now, but it will get you started. Also, do a forum search for the Apache or the XV6700 to find out if other owners are successfully able to flash to a new ROM and the steps they took to do it.
Good Luck!!

Thanks for the reply, one question though, you mentioned about new ROM for XV6700 over Apache forum, and I'm assuming u mean the Sprint AKU2.2 ROM right? If so I already got it flashed in my Verizon XV6700 and working now. What i'm interested in is the AKU3.x ROM. Is it possible at this moment?
Thanks.

That's a question you'll need to answer yourself from reading the thread that has the ROM you want to flash to. Each ROM has it's own prerequisites for a successful upgrade, so I wouldn't even want to presume to know whether you can or can't.
Here's the link to Molski's AKU3.2 ROM.

However, it's in the Wizard upgrade section, so you might not be able to use it on your Apache. The only way to know for sure is to read the ENTIRE thread to see if you could use it on your device.
If so, FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS EXACTLY!!

If it's a Verizon phone, it is not GSM based, therefore it is TOTALLY different from the Wizard, and most other HTC devices.
If you can't do it yourself, learn. If you can't learn, wait for someone else to do it, and find out from them.
Now go have fun!

Confused - Which ROM to use?

Hi, I have changed 2 ROMS already and new ones are coming out every day. I'm getting confused! How can I tell whether I should replace my existing ROM or not?
Could anybody please make a list of all (or some) ROMS that are available and next to each version write why should anyone use THAT rom rather than the others...
For example :
version X.XX build XXXX - "If you want speed, don't need mind missing Opera, and your phone sleeps right after you answer a call, use this ROM"
Dunno if it makes sense... But I'm just confused now.
(btw i now have the 1.93.456.2 WWE rom with 1.00.25.05 radio, whatever it means. Should I update it and if so, why?)
Thanks in advance and forgive me if this question is not in the right thread, im kind of new here...

ok......
only way to find out whats best for "you" is read the forums
take time...its all here...just read and learn
good luck and have fun

Can i flash the new HTC official rom on my device?

I tried downloading the newest HTC ROM update---says my device is not supported for this update. ???????
I downloaded the file using a provided serial in another thread for the WWE version.
Can I use this file to flash my rom????
My diamond is an UNBRANDED and UNLOCKED version. I assume its a UK or US version. I use it with my ATT&T sim card.
It's a 1.93.422.4 WWE currently...
Any reason this 2.03 rom WONT work for me?
Can I use it?
I started the flash process just to see if it would give me an error or incompatible message and it did not. It was ready to install.
Any thoughts?
thanks

Man,
You really need to read the wiki and this thread.
Not meaning to sound rude - but your questions are answered thoroughly, providing the information you need to understand before flashing your device.

wow man, that was SO INSIGHTFUL.... thanks
I have flashed MANY phones, many times. I am very aware of how to do it and Yes I have read that page.
I am just trying to see IF ANYONE KNEW offhand if that new WWE ROM would work over my existing ROM without bricking it.
but thanks

If you got it off the Diamond page and know it's a Diamond ROM for sure, then you can flash it. If you don't know where you go it or have no idea for which device it came for, it has to be ported.
Thread closed.

I looked and could not find a definitive list

What all ROMS have global ability?

I have not seen a list, either, but I believe the threads for each ROM have at least one person asking if that ROM supports global. I would choose a ROM you want to try and search the thread for it to find out if it supports global. If it doesn't, try another one until you find one that does.
There was another thread discussing this, but I'm sure you already searched for it . Here ya go:
Do these custom ROMs affect the global capabilities of the phone?

Sorry about that, i didnt search but i did go through the pinned list that i thought had the ROM list.

I don't find a rom version

I tried to ask in a rom thread but because I'm new i cant write. I want only know if is possible to have a link for download Omega 6.1 because i don't find it.
Thank' s to all and sorry for my bad english.

I'm not sure if you want the exact version, but I found this in the development section. Click here.
