Can someone help me, i have just got a new M1000 after my last one died and i thought i would upgrade the ROM before i start installing everything back onto it.
What is the latest ROM
thanks
Tim

Sorry, I happened to be in a bad mood
a not so official one :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=13045&highlight=orange+upgrade
This may not be much help to you at present, but Orange are working on a new ROM, to address the repeated hard resets being experienced by some M1000's. They are into final testing so release should not be far away.
thanks, sorry for not searching.
NeilM - do you know what version(s) of all the roms Orange are releasing? Ie will it even be worth upgrading to it? I have the hacked rom installed and its ok for me now but its a company fon so official rom is best!

Hi, I am absolutely new to this, I am about to take delivery of an MDA Pro on T-Mobile, and i am wondering can i install say a jasjar or O2 rom image to get round some of the problems experienced with T-Mobiles roms?
I hope someone can help
Cheers in advance
Jonathan
yes, you can arbitrarily mix Windows Mobile core, Radio stack, and Extended ROM version.
Thank you and a further Question
By using the say Imate rom, will that eliminate the problems experienced with the t-mobile rom
Cheers and thank you
Jonathan
what problems are you having
i updated a magiacn that was ok and it totally fired it beyone repair
jesus, what did you do? You've got me a little worried now since i'm looking into cooking roms or trying some other device roms on my sx66. I was under the impression that it was relatively safe if your careful.
what did you do to fry it?
i simply downloaded a rom update off the phone porivders website,ran it and my lil magican was no more lol
this is the Universal forum. Of course if you burn a ROM for a different device then it will make poof.
Back to the question - what were your problems with the T-Mobile ROM? Were they T-Mobile issues or Microsoft issues? Or radio stack?
Where can you get T-Mobile roms from other than the ones on the WIKI (which is missing links). Do T-Mobile UK publish them, as I could not see any sensible links when I was logged in.
Just got my new M5000 after i accidentally threw the last one across the work car park.
I have just spent the last 45 mins browsing the site to work out what the latest roms and radios are so that i can get my nice virgin phone up to date.
However all i did was get very confused easily done im afraid.
Could someone please give me a difinitive answer on which updates i should run.
thanks in advance
Tim
First question is did you have any problems with your original M5000?
If not, dont fix something that is not broken!
If the original ROM worked ok for you.. stick with it.. I have...
Sensible searching in this forum will find you cures to most issues without upgrading your ROM...
If you still want to upgrade your ROM I'll leave the answer to 'which' & 'how' to others who have tried and tested it...
i had upgraded the radio to 1.6 i think but i see there is a 1.9 now but i cant find the exe to download.
Upgrade the radio, but don't bother with the extended rom.
Just remember to take note of the GPRS connection settings before you hard-reboot.
I had a replacement M5000 a few weeks ago i am now running the latest orange rom with radio 1.09.
It works great however one word of note i had to update the rom 3 times before the calender worked i assume the file must have corrupted during upload.
Can you point me in the right direction for the roms and radio
Sorry if other people have already seen this, I did a search and couldn't find anything. I just noticed that T-Mobile have released (via HTC) an official UK (and Germany and Czech Republic) a 1.72 version of the ROM for the HD2 on the 26th April 2010 (2 days ago).

Im installing now...where do I find that info ? biggest noob of em all
Is this just for T Mobile usres as the name sugests??
Im on O2, completely new to Winmo and smart phones at that!!!
Not rele sure what i need to do, but im trying to sort things out.
No to 3.5..... shocker
Manila 2012 but I can't see any differences over the former 1920..... please feel free to correct me
Personally, I can't see / feel many if any decent changes.......
If you install, your phone will be as you originally received it (save the updated software) so you will have to re-install everything...
If I had the previous 1.43 I would flash back...
I havent added anything as yet as i only had it since monday!!
Sorry to sound dumb, was is flash back??
Then you have nothing to worry about....
is there some sort of changelog for this?
please do report on what its like, particularly stability and messaging
then i might do my first HD2 flash...
i upgraded from original 1.43 stock rom and must say its a lot smoother than before, doesnt freeze up as much very little lagging.
no real difference in battery life, maybe a touch better but the main difference for me is that HTC messaging works instead of me having to rever back to wm messaging.
also, it came with .net 3.5 so i dont know why others have said it doesnt.
well im sold!
will DL and flash tonight!
thanks for the report jonyid
Any Ideas
Hi Guys
I cant seem to be able to download the T-Mobile rom from HTC's site. When I enter my serial number the site says that Sorry, this software download is not suitable for your device. Yet I am a UK user on T-Mobile with rom version 1.66.405.2 what am I doing wrong?

What ROM are you using, as T-MobUK have only had 1.43 and now 1.72?
I am also with T-MobUK but I quickly dumped ROM 1.43, HSPL'd and went for the HTC standard WWE 1.66 ROM. Since T-MobUK 1.72 is WWE1.66 with T-Mob bloatware added, then there is no point updating.
If you really want the 1.72 ROM, I'll get it for you.
Hi Please ignore above I have just discovered even though I bought my phone as a t-mobile one it is in fact the unlocked phone, so am I right in understanding that the latest rom for my phone (according to HTC's Site) is 166.405.2

I recently upgraded my Tmobile 1.43 Rom to the new 1.72.110.4 from the HTC website. So far it seems to be ok. Not much of a difference: Solitaire and Bubble breaker have been added, You Tube, Bing search and one or two additions as well. Most importanly however is the performance of the HTC messaging program. I used PIM back toback up for my text messages, contacts, calender. Ugraded the ROM, (took about 10mins or less) and restored text messages from the back up file.
Restore process showed me 7000+ texts copied to the device. Restarted the device, checked messaging and got the "restoring messages" status bar. Took about 1 hour since then, I have noticed a marked improvement in the HTC messaging application. Can now continue using the phone even when a text comes in, can delete without having to wait ages for the device to start up again.
BTW I have some apps installed: TomTom 6, Swype, Skype, TCPMP player, Registry editor, etc.
Hope that information helps or encourages someone!
does anyone know if its possible to go back to the 1.43 ROM??? (just curious....)
Noob question here... as I have flashed my device and installed a custom ROM (or many) already will this take HSPL off my device? Will it be ok to do the normal install or will it brick my device?
I'm just trying to get my phone back to stock Rom levels as I need to return it to Tmobile and this is the only place I've managed to find the TmobileUK stock ROM.
Help? Please?!
Can anyone help with this at all? Please?!
HI Everyone,
Im back, ive decide to ditch the iphone and give the HD2 another chance!
Im with O2 3G/sim
I bought what i thought was an unbranded/unlocked HD2 of ebay but surpirise surprise is was locked to t mobile in the UK! So my day has consisted of trying to get it unlocked which i just have and also changing wap/internet setting so the bloody thing will work.
Problems: -
1 - can i install an O2 ROM so the phone works perfectly with my current O2 sim or am i barking up the wrong tree? I want to get rid of all t mobile UK pre configured/installed settings.
2 - All internet stuff seems badly slow sort of dial up speed?!
3 - Copilot isnt pre installed, any ideas where or how i can pre install it to try it out?
Any help/advice/support i would be grateful for!

Look here, http://www.4shared.com/dir/22189940/b8552fa0/Shipped_Leo_ROMs.html .
Leo 1.43 'RUU_Le2_UK_1.43.206.4_Radio_Signed_15.26.50.07U _2.04.50.22_2_Ship_WORKING.exe' I assume is the one you want, that's the stock O2 ROM. However, if you look on the HTC website there is also the ROM upgrade from 1.43/1.48 to 1.72. But as you don't have the stock O2 ROM installed Don't install the HTC upgrades before you do so.
It should have all the default O2 bloatware, including the Copilot trial.
HI Kalavere,
Thank you for the rom update, i tried installing it but this messages just comes up any ideas?
Error(294) invalid vender ID
It wont let me proceed with the rom update?
SORTED!!!
Got is sorted thanks again!
Flashed the rom and installed the newest O2 1.72 software.
The CoPilot trial is here http://www.alk.com/htc/uk/. I don't know whether you can trial the program if the evaluation has already been used.

Brilliant stuff. It's just as easy to flash a custom ROM, so give it a go sometime. They are far far better than stock.

I've never had the nerve to try one. There are too many threads that start 'I just flashed xxx and now I can't boot my HD2...'

Well you took that risk flashing the stock ROM, lol. There's no difference.
I'd recommend NRG's EnergyROM take a look.
Hi all,
I was wondering if you had any info at all? I can see that version 3.14.206.1 is availible for t-mobile, orange etc in the UK, but good old O2 still show v 1.72.
I spoke to O2 today who said that they have version 3.14 live.
She sent me an email with a URL in it, but that URL goes to the download page on the HTC site for version 1.72.
I called back and the advisor 'Ben' I spoke to, and the technical team were all adament that O2 had made version 3.14.206.1 live weeks ago and it should be on the site.
I told them that I had been checking for weeks and had not seen it go live, and that I had not heard about it on this and other HTC forum sites. They argued that it was there and that HTC may have taken it down? Surely HTC will tell me to go away as I am not a direct customer of theirs and that I have a vendor locked phone and send me back to O2 for me to go around in circles again?
They now tell me I need to contact HTC direct as the link goes to their site. A copy of the email is below :
Thank you for your recent handset enquiry regarding software on your handset. Please find details of how to upgrade your handset software to version ROM: 3.14.206.1 below.
Visit the HTC website and follow the instructions.
Upgrade URL: htc . com /uk /SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=937&news_id=636 (sorry had to format it as it would not let me post URLS)
We hope this has answered your question. Please note that replies to this email will not be actioned.
As far I know the 3.14 O2 stock rom version isn't available jet. I know that O2 have update the rom for the HD Mini but for the HD2 nothing to find.
Well I really hope they pull their fingers out! If not I may have to put Android on it...
I have used O2 for over 8 years and they have always been slow to get ROM updates up, but in the last few years they have been terrible!
O2 (UK): 3.14.206.1, O2(Germany): 3.14.207.1
Maybe old news but just saw that 18.2.2011 a new HD2 O2 rom is being offered at HTC: http://tinyurl.com/new-O2-ROM-3-14
The latest o2 update is on the HTC website htc.com/uk/SupportViewNews.aspx?dl_id=1088&news_id=871
but as per usual im gonna miss that update as my phones being repaired
please let me know whether it makes the phone any faster thanks =D
hmm strange that it still doesnt show up on the regular support - hd2 - downloads list on htc.com
Typical O2 to be the last to release, and still get it wrong.
Mirror download link.
In case of; here you have a mirror download link of the; O2 (UK): 3.14.206.1
Thanks to the collaboration of samsamuel
Have fun.
=========== WARNING ====================
PLEASE DO NOTupgrade to new rom for HTC-HD2 for o2 3.14.206.1
it is not stable . freezes!
Even HTC sense crashes!
No problems on mine.
thank you
Very true, for me it was actually a stepback, not an upgrade. My phone was very buggy for the entirety of the 3 days I had it on. I've downgraded to the 1.72 Rom I had before and everything is fine once again.

still got hspl installed?
I upgraded over a week ago. I'm very happy with it. No bugs apparent, and much better battery life.
Upgrade O2 to 3.14
I upgraded my 14 month old HD2 to O2 ROM 3.14.206 two weeks ago.
No problem with the upgrading process.
Since then my battery life has been considerably improved, the HD2 has been completely stable, and access to the internet using Opera 10 has been much better than before. I'm absolutely delighted!
Same here, excelent upgrade, in fact the HD2 is so good now that I do not spend more than 2 weeks playing with Nokia N8 and rush back to my old trusty HD2!
nice post thank you
just updated, wifi issues i believe but everything else seems fine
O2 ROM upgrade for a T-Mobile HD2
Hi all. I've got a bit of a problem in that I flashed my HD2 from T-Mobile to O2 after unlocking it to any network. This means that subsequent ROM upgrades are difficult to come by unless the file is posted here. When I visit the HTC site and attempt to download the upgrade, firstly I have to enter the phone's serial number which HTC have on record as being a T-Mobile unit originally. This kicks me out of the O2 ROM upgrade download screen.
Does anyone have access to the file that they could post here for me please. I'd be hugely grateful.
Very many thanks

[REF] Leo Official ROMs found in 6.5 rom development. first post first link, all teh stock roms are there,
your phone will always be rom locked to t mo. the htc website will never let you download anything but t mo roms.
since you have hspl, you dont need to stick to stock roms, you have already unlocked it for flashing custom roms.
There is a download link of the ROM in post 7
