Rom upgrades. - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

A few questions regarding rom updates.
If something went wrong during a rom upgrade is it always possible to get my O2 rom upgrade back on ? If a rom fails does it always go back to the usb on screen so you can run for example the 02 rom upgrade ?
Is there a list of all the different roms available ?
Whats generally the best one ? I keep hearing of this Mr Clean rom.
Is it really worth upgrading to one of these roms from the standard latest 02 rom ? What are the benefits ? Is the phone a lot faster ?
Ive got about 5 months warranty left has everyone been upgrading regardless of having warranty left ?
Any answers to any of the above are appreciated.

Attention Needed

Dear poeple,
I have this question about an upgrade i have put on my artemis .
I have upgraded my artemis to wm6 rom Gibs217 now i wanted to roll back my phone to the old settings and the old rom.
I have upgraded it so my question is can somebody please tell me how to downgrade my artemis to the old settings and rom again .
Very much appreciate the help.
Greetings,
Vibes.
the same way as you upgraded just with the old rom insted of the new one
the old rom is gon from your device and will have to be reapply'd
upgrading error
But thereis the problem when i reapply the original rom after 1% it crashes and say that the rom is corrupt i tried it with 3other images and they all did the same so what would you do if you were me ? isnt there a way to remove the new rom and let the original rom install itself or something ?
sorry dont know much about flashing artemis
but when you flash a new rom it's kinda like formatting your pc harddisk
and installing a new os
you cant roll back
i would wait and see if a more spc artemis expert flasher comes along and tell you what to do
or start reading threads about how to fix your flashing issue
few issues comes along that nobody before have encountered
so it could be that search would lead you do a fix

Thinking of upgrading my ROM...advice please

I'm thinking of upgrading my Rom as it's unlikely o2 Ireland will do it any time soon. I have 1.43.206.4 WWE on my phone. I was thinking of sticking with the official HTC rom's ....could someone advise me as to which version should I install...most stable etc.
I really appreciate any help. I was going to install it using SSPL_RUU...would this be the best way?
Cheers
Tony
I would advise to run http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591784
HSPL would be a better option in my humble opinion, that way u wont need to SSPL each time if u wanna swap ROMs and/or update versions.
U can always revert back to stock without voiding ur warranty by flashing stock ROM from SD card if needed

Best ROM to upgrade to from stock WM5 (M600)

Ahoy,
I'm currently rocking a HTC Hero, and all the talk of upgrading to 2.1 on that had me thinking about old devices I have...
I dug out my M600 and I'm interested in flashing it to a more up to date ROM just for a play around and a fun backup phone for if I'm doing something where I don't want to trash my normal phone, as such I'm after opinions on which ROM is the best to flash to.
I'm after
- Speed
- Functionality (I don't want a ROM where some functions don't work...)
- A noticeable 'difference' from stock (preferably WM6.5 if possible...)
Any and all opinions and pointers are welcome, I'm currently waiting for my phone to charge so please post away!

Differences between O2 and Unbranded ROM's

Hi guys,
I've been using the forum for a year or so now and it's great!
I'm now the proud owner of an HD2 from O2 UK and I've already updated the ROM to version 1.72.206.3, which I believe is the latest, but what are the differences between this O2 ROM and the unbranded ROM?
I've done a search and can't seem to find anything to answer this question.
Hope somebody can help.
thanks
The unbranded ROM?
Which ROM? Do you mean the original o2 1.43 ROM? Not much difference that you would recognise. The volume slider in WMP renders correctly in 1.72 whereas in 1.43 it looked like a poo stain in a pair of underpants. Apart from that forget it. I just includes all of the camera, SMS and other hotfixes which had been released between the two versions.
Do you mean cooked ROMs you can download from XDA? The world of difference. Select a ROM with the features you want from the ROM section and flash it as per the instructions given.
Maybe over the next year you will read some of the posts. Maybe even learn a thing or two
if you do in fact mean cooked roms. then alot.
for me (an energy user) the phone no longer crashes every day. i can install all the apps i want and not hit the memory usage on the phone. The phone runs alot faster, smoother has better apps pre-installed and i just like it more?
After having read almost all threads from the beginning it seems that ALL branded HD2s are buggy to excess ..............
I use an unbranded one, and while once in a while I had some probs with 1.43 since 1.48 it runs as smooth as liquid nitrogene.
I have also installed SKTools and Pocket Mechanic, LeoCPUSpeed V.3.0, CHT 1.6 (the ultimate stable version till now), ChainfireĀ“s 3D-driver and before any mod or installed app I do a backup. In case a new app causes probs I just revert to sit as before.
No single hardreset necessary till now since I unpacked it.
Honestly: I was heavily tried to flash a cooked ROM once, but I refrain from THAT as soon as I read in the specific threads about the many problems some of the users then have with lock-ups, freezes, bricking. And branded HD2s ARE cooked ROMS !
CHT, Franwella, Jaguaralani, Smaberg, MooNah and the many others (sorry for not remembering ALL names, but ALL are geniousses) offer such nice little mods that there is no need FOR ME to experiment with cooked ROMS.
Also on Freewarepocketpc - when is new app is issued - as soon as I read "does not work on HD2" I abstain from installing till a stable version is issued.
difference between o2 rom and unbranded rom
hi
in o2 rom wifi router is missing
Hi all,
Thanks for all the input so far.
Previous to having the HD2 I had an X1 which I flashed with various cooked ROM's successfully and it worked quite well.
Really, I just need to know what is missing on the O2 1.72 ROM that is on the equivalent stock ROM which I assume is 1.48 and would I benefit from flashing a stock ROM to the device.
Would it let me do this with no problems and would it affect the warranty, if it needed reapair, if I did flash it with a stock ROM or would I have to go back to the O2 ROM?

ROM Upgrade FAQ

Hello everyone!
I want to upgrade my Leo from original genuine WM 6.5 to WP 7 ROM. It's first time I would be flashing a ROM onto my phone, so I wanted to ask you few questions...
I googled about this many times, but I'm still not sure about some things. I'll welcome all answers and advices.
So here are the questions I'd like to clear out:
Which ROM should I use for my Leo? There are lots of ROMs and I'd like to get the most recent one (best would be with NoDo update)...
Is there a guide or tutorial or something like that? I understand I have to install first some flasher and using that flash the ROM into the device... Is that right?
How is the new ROM going to affect the performance? I read somewhere that at the end it could be faster than HD7 (which is basically the same HW only without 2 buttons)
Is the new ROM going to void my warranty? Is there a way back (to virginize it like e.g. iPhone)?
What's with the XBOX Live services? Is there a working way around?
Thanks in advance
