i don't know which thread this should of been posted into but it's bugging me
Every guide, every person when talking about updating/flashing ROMS talks about this this tool
but they seem to forget to even explain where to officially download it from lol
i have searched the web for a official homepage for this application and cannot find anything.
there is links to all versions from 1.15 right up to 4.43 but still no official place to download from?
my question is who makes it? where does it come from? and is there some special hidden official
site with regular updates?
if not how do we know what version is the latest? there is no about dialog box there is no
information other than a version build number.
For Example a few threads here people been asking where to download
then users have posted their mediafire links and such then right at the bottom the guy said
Dude!! that's 2 years old were on version 4.43 now..
If there is no official download/author site for this app how is anyone supposed to know that
newer version there is? .. do we just wait for someone to find a new version in the wild before we update?
Even on samfirmware it has all the custom roms, stockroms, which provides you with the ROM but
no explanation on what flash utility to use or where to download it from, to flash them ROMS
i can't be the only person on here or in the world wondering where this odin tool actually comes from am i?
wow really? 112 views but no-one has replied with any questions of their own or information?
can't just be me who's curious about this flashing tool
I would think it's a proprietary program,
from Samsung and I don't look a gift horse in the mouth.

This is an old version - version 10 is already released in the official thread and the author has expressly asked not to post the binarys in places other then the offical source - it's free and he doesn't require you to register so I see no reason why you wouldn't respect that wish. :S
http://www.pocketcm.com/
"Feel free to share it with anybody. BUT PLEASE DO NOT PUBLISH BINARY ON YOUR WEBSITE, link to mine"
The above is a statement from the creator of this programs thread. I think you need to just post a link to his site, but thats just my opinion.

It says .09 still but if you hover over the link it's for version 10 - he just hasn't updated the text - he mentions the update throughout the site though and in the official thread - just overlooked the title of the link

The link says .09 but it gives .10.
I downloaded the version in the first post in this thread, which installed only my phone no problem. Then I read that we should be using a more current version from the website directly.
I navigated to www.pocketcm.com from my phone and downloaded the new version 0.10. This opened up in my browser (winrar I guess) as 2 files: pocketcm.exe and another file. There doesn't appear to be an installer with this version.
I copied the 2 files into my current Program Files\PocketCM directory and overwrote the current ones (after killing the process to free up the files).
While this worked ok for me and anyone that started with earlier versions, anyone starting now with 0.10 won't be able to install the app properly.
Or am I missing something?

Hello,
I'm seeing people have released cooked ROMs based on 1.97.*, but I couldn't find any official 1.97.* ROMs neither on the forum nor on the wiki. Can somebody point me the related post or wiki page please, if there is any?
Thanks.
Go to HTC download
Klick the download link. On the HTC site. And see what the file name is. cOuse it might be posible they did not chenged the download link name.
The only ROM version I was able to download today from htc.com was a 1.93.* WWE, with the serial number of my device. Is there any other method for accessing official ROMs? I mean, without a serial number?
I think what he's trying to say is this,
Look at the download link for the 1.93 rom and just change the url, you might get luck. so change (for example) http://htc.com/193.rom to http://htc.com/1xx.com.
Edit:
Checked to see the download link for ya, the 1.93 link is this:
http://dl.htc.com/downloadfiles/Rom...igned_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship.exe
edit it to your likings and hope for the best.

i found this searching on google http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2945594&postcount=9
@nilsk123
I understand the method you're offering but I think the way HTC call their ROM update files is making impossible to guess alternative versions. There are too many numbers to play with, just too many possibilities Also, the link created by HTC web site could simply be a symlink or a virtual folder created on the fly according to our serial numbers.
@Weisan
Thanks for the link, appreciated. This ROM looks like created for Vodafone, are there any unbranded 1.97.* updates present in the forum?
I would be interested also, to see if HTC have improved much since the 1.93 ROMS...
Hi, I bought a HTC touch pro 2 phone a couple months back with windows mobile 6.5 on the phone and today i woke up to find that the operating system was some beta version and that it has run out so now the phone is not working. There is no information anywhere what to do.
I have tryed going on the htc site and downloading software but when i put the serial number in it says that it is not suitable
How can i install an operating system that will work or even get this version to work
Any help would be apprecitated
What an incredibly weird problem.
Your best bet* is to go to your carrier's website (rather than HTC's) and download their most current ROM.
Alternatively, you could download one of hundreds of custom ROMs here or on other sites. Just make sure you use a GSM ROM if you have a GSM phone or a CDMA ROM if you have a CDMA phone.
*Many are going to insist that a custom ROM is your best bet. Since you don't seem to be very familiar with these concepts I really think a stock ROM from your carrier is the best place to start in order to get your phone working again.

What model of the TP2 is it, where did you buy it, and what carrier are you using it on?
EDIT: I'm guessing I already know the answer to the 2nd question

It sounds like you bought a used phone that someone had put a custom rom on. Ive heard people discuss in the NRG Rom thread that some of the roms previous to April 1st would expire on the first of may. This sounds all too similar.
My advice... flash a new rom. Especially if you DID but the phone used. That's like what is going on. Do some reading in the Rom sub forum and you'll see what I'm talking. find the NRG Rom thread and search "expiration" or something.
Hope this helps some!
Hi, It expired on the 1st may so i guess that might be what the problem is. How can i instal i new rom? and where can i get this information. Do you have any links?
Thanks

Thats a big question that you're best just doing some reading on and if you have questions as in those threads.
The thread's you want to read are here ---->Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile ROM Development
Read through those threads that are at the very top with "Sticky" next to them. All the threads below are rom related threads about certain roms availabe to install etc.
has anybody tried it? It's available on samsung-firmware website.
it's supposed to be Asian firmware, based on Froyo, but the name of the firmware is different (i.e. I9008 instead of I9000)
Do not flash on your Galaxy S (i9000) with this i9008 one. I almost bricked my phone trying to do that. I posted my experience in another thread. i9008 I understand is a model that is available in China market.
Lucky managed to start-up in bootloader and revert to JM2. Retried at least 3 to 4 times before the re-flashing was able to proceed.
there is also 2 threads up already discussing this fw
Perhaps it is a good idea to put a nice big warning in the topic title and first post to NOT flash this on regular I9000s? There's enough bricks in the houses along Cobblestone Road anyway.
Want to restore back to original rom, and have spent a good hour hunting, only to end up at either samobile who want to charge e15, or some other shady sites where y ou have to pay for access...
Is this just the way things are?
Anyone able to share this rom?
At https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-tab-pro/SM-T520/ I do not see anything telling me to pay.
If you actually select a rom, you see this below the file...
This archived firmware is only available for premium users.

Which sort of contradicts the info on the previous page:
Here you find all the latest firmwares for the GALAXY Tab PRO SM-T520, if you want to flash your device with the newest Samsung software. Before downloading, make sure your device has the exact model code SM-T520. You can download the most recent GALAXY Tab PRO firmwares for free, or check out our cheap but fast download options.

I know the firmware is old, but its still the latest!
Did you log in. I registered long time ago at sammobile to be able to download. That worked for about 8 years without paying anything, but downloadspeed is anoying low.
Ok, I just logged in and saw , you have to pay. Free firmware downloads for members are only for recent firmware. Cause we're far from recent, we have to pay for the archive files. F...k you Samsung.
As I said in another thread some years ago, this tablet was my last Samsung device I bought, due to their superior support.
Here's a link for the German (DBT) and the Dutch (PHN) stock firmware. I think the dutch one was newer, although there's probably not much of a difference.
