Dear All,
first of all....HELLO! I've just registered myself on the forum.
Yesterday I bought the HTC P3600 (Trinity, I think), english version (I suppose it's called wwe). I want to install a cooked ITALIAN ROM, but I read I'm losing the guarantee if I'll do it.
Somebody tell me there is a software that can allow me to re-install the original ROM and avoid the guarantee losing.
Is this right? can someone give me more info?
Thanks in advance for your reply and sorry for my english
Best regards
You can always go back to an original HTC rom, as long as you don't brick your device.
In order to prevent that, you should install a Hard-SPL (board search, iirc its a sticky) which is a replacement bootloader that allows flashing any Rom after bricking.
Have fun playing around with your new P3600.

So if I install first the Hard-SPL I can install a COOKED ITALIAN ROM and after I can go back the original HTC ROM and I'll not lose my guarantee???
If I brick, how can I de-brick the HTC?
Thanks for the quickly reply
Best regards
You should try reading the WIKI and also check www.trinityguides.info
Helloo there.
Your phone is probably cid locked, that means, that u can install only original htc rom-wm5. wm6 doesnt exist for htc trinity.
If u have cid unlocked, u can flash any rom with the RUU (rom update utility) , which is in the package with the rom.
Otherwise i prefer for my cid locked trinity that:

U loose warranty if u send the broken pda on service with the custom rom installed on it. So, before u send it, flash the original rom over and it will be ok.
The problem could be, if the lcd goes bad, than its hard to reinstall the original rom. i know u understand.

Thanks for your answer. I installed the SPL-1.20 and I updated my Radio version (1.46.00.11------is it good?). Now I can install every unofficial ROM and in any case I can go back (how?).
Is it right?
Best regards
Can anyone help me?
Where do I get the firmware to flash it all back to stock? I need to return my phone.
Any help, and download locations for the particular firmwares would be appreciated.
Its Been flashed with the all the instructions in this thread:

Dear Friends;
I've done HardSPL and installed Cooked ram (downloaded from XDA) several times, but recently I heared that by installing non-original ROMs the Guarantee will be invoked. It is easilly possible to back to original ROM but is it possible to back to original CID lock as well? I dont want loose the Guarantee....
I will be appreciated if the firends kindly help me.
Best Regards
Darius
As far as I know you can go back to your original SPL, but dont quote me on it.
Wait for a better answer from someone more experienced.
at the same place where u got the hard spl, the author probably provided the stock spl for warranty purposes.
so what u need before u send it back to service is:
stock spl, stock rom, and stock radio (probably u remember which came with it).
any ways, just read the hard spl thread, and u have the answer.
don't do nothing without first reading what u are doing
easy!
hi, simply install an ORIGINAL HTC rom and it return with rom and original CID.
Bye, felix
AFAIK installing another rom also the HTC default ones are not giving back the CID when u unlocked it, if you wrote the CID down you can do it with the CID unlocker of OliNex there u can write in the CID u want to set.
The problem with stock SPL is dicussed many times ! a whole thread is there for that.

Dear All,
In my Quest to return my DHD to factory state, i need the Indian RUU BUT couldn't find it anywhere. If any body can provide a Indian RUU or a Nandroid Backup of the stock ROM, i will be able to achieve my objective.
Its my humble appeal to you all and especially Indian forum members to pls help me.
Thanks a TON.
Stock Indian ROM from HTC Service Centre
I TRIED MY BEST TO GET THE 1.32.720.3 ROM BUT WAS NOT SUCCESSFUL.

DOWNLOAD THE SAME, RENAME IT TO PD98IMG.ZIP & PLACE IT IN THE ROOT OF YOUR CARD, TURN OFF FAST BOOT & JUST DO A NORMAL RESTART. COFIRM THE INFORMATION. JUST A HEADSUP "YOU WILL LOOSE ALL YOUR DATA SO BACK IT UP"
LOADS OF THANKS TO HTC FOR THE LINK & andyharney FROM XDA FOR THE STEPS AFTER THE DOWNLOAD.
Cant we discuss this in the Development section ... Please post in the right place .
Sorry, Will do.
Can anyone recommend a download link or other source for the above ROM and Radio please?
I need to return my phone to stock for HTC to examine it and check my faulty GPS chip (then hopefully provide me with a fully-functioning handset!).
Thanks for any help.

Download the TMO version
Superb, thanks buddy.

Hey,
Did it work? Can you please share your experience? I am interesting in running custom ROMs, however need to ensure that I can return the phone back to the state that I got it in. I have a branded, but unlocked, T-Mobile UK DHD.
Cheers,

It seems to have worked successfully (the handset is now with HTC's designated repair centre).
It was a pretty straightforward process:
- Download the Stock ROM from the above link
- Flash it
- Then follow this guide to return to S-ON.
HTH?
Hey mate, I bought my Desire HD from the Carphone Warehouse back in December, running the stock Froyo Rom. I'm on T-Mobile too. Do you still have a copy of the RUU you downloaded? I can't seem to find any and the link seems to be dead.
