????????-Noob Question-???????? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV ROM Development

hy
when i download a OFFICIAL ROM from htc site
1- is it necessary to use HardSPL before the update or HardSPL it only for
CUSTOM ROM
2- and if i have flashing my device with hardspl ..can i use the official rom or the custom
rom only
Thank you

Hi,
1. When you download an Official Rom from HTC website you DON'T need any HardSPL! HardSPL is necessary to install new CUSTOM Roms!
2. And if you want to change back from a Custom Rom to the Original Rom (with HardSPL obviously installed before), you don't even encounter problems.
HardSPL never cause problems for either Official and Custom Rom's.

Thank you

You're welcome

Questions about new ROM

Hi.
a few newbie questions.
1. Is it possible to update new ANZ ROM to factory unlocked European version of HTC?
2. Is there swedish/finnish keyboard layout and T9 on that ANZ ROM?
3. Is there Cooked Rom available based on latest Official (and fixed 28% problem). Not PDAVIET because I want original splash screen, and no other than original applications.
this thread will allow you to flash the new ROM to your phone without issues..
if you're unsure, take a look at my flashing guide
i download pdaviet HTC_Trinity_3.00.07.08.PV but its locked what the password and where its gone

Upgrading an official ROM question

Hi there all im new around here.. kinda new with the PDA phones also Diamond is my first one so.. sorry but i have just 1 question..
I read the tutorials mostly ... i know i gotta upgrade first a Hard SPL if i want to be able to install a custom ROM afterwards..
I want just to upgrade my ROM with the Official one from HTC site the latest one.. and i dunno.. do i need to upgrade the HardSPL in order to upgrade with the official ROM ??
And if yes.. what version of Hard SPL do i need to upgrade to first ? if i upgrade with Hard-SPL 1.40 Olinex SIGNED will the latest Official ROM work fine ?

Hi when i wanted to upgrade to new stockrom i could´t do it without hardspl
im using 1.24 it works like a charm..
When upgrading a manufacturer ROM to a newer release of the SAME manufacturers ROM, you don't need HardSPL.
My phone is danish now, Can i change it to english via official rom?
how can i get the rom from htc web site?
Thanks

most likely english will not install on your device. to make it happen, you need to install OliNex HardSPL first.
this will enable you to flash any rom afterwards.
where to get rom? just use search engine on this site or internet, you will find what you are looking for.

Yes, if you want to flash different ROM (even official, like FR to WWE) you need HardSPL.

official stripped ROM without radio...

Hi all,
I was wondering if there is a official ROM version without the radio?
I have read thet it is better to install the official ROM before any cooked rom. That way it would be a lot easier, because than I wont have to install another new radio after every cooked rom I have installed....
So if someone knows where I can find this I would be very thankfull!

Upgrading to new (wm6.5) ROM

Hi there
I've finally got a working diamond 2.
I thought I'd upgrade to the latest ROM and see how I got on with that before trying any cooked ROMS.
I d/l'd the latest official ROM from HTC website and tried to flash the phone but it kept giving me error [270]. I was starting to get worried as I haven't installed hardSPL yet (you don't need this for official ROM's I believe). I donwloaded the older ROM and that installed ok (thankfully).
Why didn't the latest ROM work?
What should I do to get this working? I am probably going to try a custom ROM at some point so I will install hardSPL (what is the latest version of this?) will this make the wm6.5 rom work?
any help much appreciated.
Thanks
Jim

Welcome to forums
I´m not sure if understood your problem, hope I do.
I would suggest to re flash again following instructions from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=550540
Normally a cooked ROM should work even better/faster than any original ROM.
Hope it helped and good luck,

Does the new hardspl include a overwrite protection freature? meaning that a new hardspl can't overwrite it?
