Hi, i got an HTC Touch Pro2 from a friend here in Denmark. Its set up with the danish version of windows mobile(really old version without windows update, so every update has to be loaded manually).
I'm looking for an rom upgrade for HTC Touch Pro2 T7373 that is newer than the one on the danish homepage - 2.07.403.1 .
The phone will be used in the Philippines so it don't need to be in danish language - as long as it not getting locked to a mobile company - English is fine.
The current os is: 5.2.21887 (21887.5.0.86)
Manila version: 2.5.20121225.0
The current Rom is: 2.07.403.1 (80303) DAN
Rom date: 02/04/10
Radio version: 4.49.25.91
Protocol version: 61.44etc.25.35U
I have searched the forums and found some threads, but they are rather old(2009) and many links don't work anymore, So I like to get some help here and not send around in circles.
Also this is my first windows mobile, I'm an android person, I want to give this to my GF's family So expect me to be a noob regarding this - though I'm an IT consultant through 27 years Mostly dealing with HW and windows/Linux/Android. I never looked to windows mobile after the total screwed up windows CE - with all the restrictions - I went directly to Android.
Ok, that said I'm game, to fix this Please help me
Also since this phone is not branded or locked to a carrier - does that mean its not SPL locked? After turning it on with Volume down held the SPL reads: SPL-0.88.0000
All of the data there:
RHOD100 32M SS-BC
SPL-0.88.0000
MicroP(LED) 0X0A
MicroP(KEY) 0X04
TURBO HW/TURBO SW
TP MFG DATA
506, 525, 799, 845
796, 204, 211, 204
218, 845 Calibrated
Can someone help me find the newest Rom for this phone and help me flash it?
EDIT: in my constant search for a new rom, I found this :
http://shipped-roms.com/index.php?category=windows%20mobile&model=Rhodium
But again I have no idea what to look for. The link on http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/HTC_Rhodium/Shipped_Roms for the RHOD100 WWE UK is broken.
EDIT again: This will really show I'm a noob: my version IS WM 6.5 Ok I need an english version since I'm unable to change the language on the phone to english - and if it has windows update too that would be a plus
EDIT again: The phone is now installed with Hard-SPL Rhodium-HardSPL_V2_00R3_185HSPL
Nevermind I got it flashed with the Rhodium-HardSPL_V2_00R3_185HSPL and then I found RUU_Rhodium_S2_HTC_Europe_2.07.401.1_Radio_Rhodium_4.49.25.91_Signed_Ship.exe which is basically the same as the one I had in danish - but of course now in english
All good now
But can someone explain why there is no Windows update on these Rom's?
The HTC Touch Pro2 manual refer in paragraf 13 to windows update.
With kind regards
JBJ
On a sidenote: Is it possible to replace the current os with Android(not as sideloaded on SD card)?

I have a xda2i with the following info
ROM version 1.10.00 WWE
ROM date 12/24/04
radio version 1.00.00
protocol version 1337.39
ExtRom 1.10.124 WWE
I am looking a for a upgraded version if anyone can help... it would be great if there was a wa to get rid of the o2 custom stuff on the xda too i dont like that too much can anyone help
Acid
At the moment there are no updates for the XDA2i but there is rumours of one in the pipelines... if its true or not remains to be seen but we can only hope.
As for removing the customised crap just do a hard reset (you'll loose all your stuff) , press power + reset.
Then when its installing a box will appear asking "Personal" or "Corporate" user, choose the corporate option and enter the password "0506"
hi
at the moment the only newer rom from our factory rom is that of pda2k.. do a search for my posts and in there you will see where to get it and how to get past the country id error..
Danny-B- I didnt see the box will appear asking "Personal" or "Corporate" user it just says will customize my xda in 3 seconds and i cant do anything to stop it and i cant even uninstall the software it is linked into everything.. its really annoying and this o2 thing is just eating up memory and space... can you help

Are you sure you didnt miss it ?
Im sure it auto installs personal user if not selected within a certain time.
The best thing to do would be, Hard reset it, then just sit and watch it install till it gets to the choice point.
Another thing that might be slowing your device down can be the SD card if its over 512Mb , the XDA 2i sems to have a slight problem with them and slows everything down, well it does in my case anyway.

.....
if I press UPGRADE the massage "don´t remove USB & power" appiers then a new screen with the status for the upgradeprocess....
BUT... after 20 sec. I always get ERROR 101 (connectionerror).
- any idea ?
The XDA2i does not support the leaked WM2005 it only works on the XDA 2
Although the devices look the same the internal hardware is different.
The XDA2i does not support the leaked WM2005
sad to hear that...
ok, thank you but do you know if it´s possible to get an upgrade in the future ?
do you know where the problem is? (Image ore Updatesoftware?)
???!!!
The problem is that the software (wm2005) has to be custom made to suit the hardware in the phone so ... HTC - the makers of the phone or O2 would have to "build" the software for the phone.
Its because all the correct drivers and such have to be correct for the device to function.
But you never know, it might be a possible upgrade in the future, youll just have to wait and see.
Upgrade for XDA2i
Ok, I´ve found an original Upgrade-Tool & the Rom-files from o2UK....
My next Problem is the Password to edit the nk.nbf to chage the Image...

Can somebody help me to findout the right password for the Rom-editor ?

Hi, I really new into this. I spend nearly the whole day in ready everything written on this on your wiki web site, which seems to be excellent. I read and tried to follow the steps to download a new ROM, but did not succeed.
I bought a DOPOD 700 in Taiwan in English version, and I don't know where I can find an upgrade version. I tried to go on the Dopod web site of Taiwan, but it’s in Chinese.
My current Device data reads:
PH20B 0 B WWE E DOPOD601 1.12.22 2 2 1.12.179 1.02.00 02.00
PH2OBO WWE E DOPOD601
ROM 1.22.22 WWE
ROM date 09/27/04
Radio version: 1.02.00
Protocol version: 1337.32
ExtROM 1.22.179 WWE
If I understand well after reading the section "how do I install an upgrade and what tools to use", I would need to download as follows:
"List of know Blueangel, sold as, Model ID, Operator code etc"
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=81244#81244
http://www.clubimate.com/Support/PDA2k_WWE_12200_162_10600_SHIP.exe
Download to
C:\XDA-Tools\PDA2k_WWE_12200_162_10600_SHIP.exe”
But it does not work. I don’t have an Imate, so I cannot register on the Support Club and cannot get access to the file.
Did I make something wrong?
Thank you in advance for your help. PascalK
upgrading
So i guess you want to upgrade it to another original shipped roms?
1st download the ROM here
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Upgrades
Than follow the instructions over here
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Downgrade_WM5
And for the radio also copy radio_.nbf from the 2003SE ROM to the "??Your_DIR??\Downgrade to WM2003SE" folder. At stap 2
Hope this will help you
Dear Rawish,
Many thanks for your advise. I have followed the procedure as indicated. I dowloaded the ROM and located the WM2003SE ROM. I prepared my PHB device as indicated, but then I met another problem:
It is written on the bootscreen of my Dopod 700 "Test Only - Not for sale - Qteck -". So I don't have access to the three options that are described in 3rd step of "BA_Dowgrade_WM5".
I guess that I am a victim of a crook in the IT shop of Taipei.
Or is there a possibility to remove this page to continue the upgrading process?
Thanks for any help. PascalK
Hey,
I'm pretty new at this, so I'll explain how i've gotten in to this.
1. Bought a HTC tytn UK and I wanted it in dutch
2. Since I couldn't find an original rom i flashed it to the dutch rom from shap's (wich is actually great)
3. Then i did find an original rom but wasn't able to flash it so i used "HTC Hermes SIM & CID Unlock - v3a"
4. The original dutch rom works fine now, except when i go to device info
Rom version: empty
Rom date: empty
Radio version: empty
Protocol version: empty
CPU: 8 squars
speed: 6 squarsBe...
No imei number and so on.
Can someone please help me, maybe in the future when i try to sell the phone this must be ok.
Thx a lot to all xda developers here !!!
edit: original bootloader and ipl were: SPL-2.05 IPL-1.04 (maybe it has something to do with that?)

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
1) you need to flash HardSPL
2) make sure you have flashed a new radio after using the CID/SIM unlocker, due to the fact that it downgrades it to a very old radio for it to work.
I had this issue when I tried a version of HTC Home Customizer that I found somewhere on the net.
To make it all come back, I had to hard reset, and not reinstall the program that caused it. I'm not sure if any other programs could cause that issue, or why it was caused.
I've flashed my device to HardSPL. now wich radio rom should I use?
I've found several radio rom but I don't have a clue wich one is best for me (Belgium, Mobistar)
flash a shipped ROM from here, there is a dutch HTC from there. get to boot loader, pressing the ok on the left, power on right, and stick stylus in at the same time. plug it to active sync, and run the exe file from the WM 6 rom upgrade/downgrade.
Hi guys. New to the forum.
Here's the deal.
Got a HTC touch diamond (below spec.) last week. Got it second hand and it seem to me it works pritty slugish. I mean it takes like 1-2 seconds before the phone recognize I'm trying to slide on the quick links menu in the bottom. Also the free memory after a cleanRam secion is abt 20 MB. Also smtimes the phone would not respond and nothing would help but removing the battery.
Can you please sujjest what the reason might be is it a bad ROM? Does win 6.1 work better on the Diamond as it comes with it preinstalled? Looking for some advise before changing the ROM.
T-Mobile MDA Vario IV
Bluetooth version - 2.0/2.0+EDR
O.S. Version: Win Mob 6.5 professional
CE O.S. 5.2.28011 (28011.5.5.0)
Manila version 2.5.19211619.0
ROM 28011_KH WWE
Radio version 1.09.25.23
Protocol version 52.51.25.26H
Thanks in advance!
ROM
WM6.1 is not as quick as 6.5, but it should not be taking as long as you are describing to do anything
Chances are there is a piece of software installed making the phone sluggish, you can remove programs just like a PC in the phones settings, have a look down the list and see if there is anything there you dont want
If you choose to upgrade to WM6.5 I highly recommend "BsBG 6.5" from this link
I have tried 100's of ROMs and this is the only one where everything works flawlessly on it (Dont forget to Flash the unlocked Radio and Security unlock the phone before upgrading)
To be blunt thins is kind of Greek to me and I have tried to search the forum and haven't had much luck. Can someone please put it to me in plain English.
I would like to upgrade my AT&T Tilt to WM 6.5. I flashed the ROM with the HTC most current version. So I am familiar with that and I do have some IT experience behind me. But can someone tell me what I need or where I can get the file(s) to upgrade this thing to WM 6.5??? Please??
Currently on the device:
R 1.65.21.18
G 25.88.40.05H
D 3.57.00.00
WM 6.1 Pro
CE OS 5.2.19214 (Build 19214.1.0.1)
Processor MSM7201-400MHZ
Memory 85.57
Thanks
See this -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=378
Before attempting to flash your device yo should read here Flashing your Kaiser for first time for Noobs!
I hope that helps, good luck!
OK not to sound totally off the wall but I just flashed my tilt.
At the present in device information:
Rom Version 3.57.502.2 WWE
Rom Date: 07/17/08
Radio Version: 1.65.21.18
Protocol Version: 25.88.40.05H
So it appears that my rom is now updated. In browsing threads I see a lot of customizations.
It appears that I have to update my radio in order to upgrade this to WM 6.5.
Would any of you know a link with a basic WM 6.5 upgrade without too many deviations from the 6.1 interface?
I think that I found a thread that has this but am not certain.
Basically I am just looking for a link to upgrade this thing to a plain English USA WM 6.5 revision. Is it possible.
And I may up the ante to $20 .. not a lot but if you were me it would be like $1,000,000 USD.
