For german ROM, I think you can get 4.00.33 from Stefan kitchen

Good luck ...

Hello,
i am also interested in upgrading my 64Mb XDA I to 2003 Version.
Nalye: How does the Upgrade worked? Do you have any problem in using or installing? Do you have any problems using the upgraded device with german O2? How about the Home-Zone Display and whole stability?
Thanks in advance!
Miwu

a cellphone company depend on the radiostack they dont know if you connect from a nokia phone or a xda with what ever rom
as long as you set it up right

@rudegar
Thanks for answering. German o2 uses a special application with the XDA, called "Home Zone Status", whats implemented in the original ROM provided by O2. With this application you get a special sign at the top of the screen if your device is in an defined area called HomeZone. The data used by this application must be provided by the gsm-part of the device, but i think, that the T-Mobile-Rom does not support the transfer of this informations because german T-Mobile does not provide this feature.
Does anyone experienced any solution for this problem?

homezone
i dn´t know ´bout a special program for displaying the hz-status, but i´m about to call o2 for an application to fix it.
the rom i cooked works well, but as you know every data got lost (about 350 sms or so) :x
try to cook it at www.yorch.net - coz stefan´s kitchen seems to be a lil´bit slow :wink:

Hi Robert,
Start here in the wiki. You'll find all the information you'll need to know to upgrade to WM6. There's a wealth of information there. So take your time and read through it.
Also, you can download the official WM5 from your carrier's website.
If you are unsure about something specific and it isn't answered in the wiki or forums, let us know and someone will be glad to help.
Good luck!

Hello,
thanks - i have found the wiki....
the problem, the original wm5 isn't on the carrier's website. There are no packages and no updates by t-mobile germany...
when i have the package, i would begin to update to wm6, but without the wm5 package there is no way back, i think....
Robert

I don't speak German, so you'll have to help me out on this one. But WM5 may be available here.

Vodafone WM6 for Herald is available!!!

Now Vodafone WM6 for Herald (VPA Compact IV) is available!!! You can download it at Vodafone Homepage under Support by clicking on VPA Compact IV. In the overview it is not listed. Only by clicking on the Device in the list. Then you must type in you S/N an accept the terms of condition to download the update.

Error 270
Hello,
now i have a second problem. My Herald was bricked in case of wrong Rom installation in the past. Now Vodafone ha released the new rom, but if i want install that i get the Information that there is an update error 270 an the progress stopped directly after 1% of installation. Now i think the problem is that the updater can not read the old informations from the phone and there are corrupted datas from the old wrong rom i had installed in the past on it. Now my Question is, how can i delate the old datas on the phone to install the new Vodafone Rom? Is there a way by MITTY or some other tools?
I hope anyone couldt help me.
Thanks

WM6 Upgrade failed / for no reason / Vodafone Image corrupt?
Well, my WM6 upgrade of the Herald stopped after 1% with error 270 (image corrupted)
anyone had succes with this? I made quite a few ROM upgrades so far with different devices from the same computer. USB cable is working perfeclty. Herald had a hard reset before. So there shouldbe absolutely no reason why the WM6 upgrade should not work.
Any sugestions?

Skynet, did not read your post, had only read first entry of the thread.
I got Vodafone on the line - they will call back since the regular support person does not even know "WM6" as a epxression
For all: I suppose the signed ROM file from the updater is corrupt. Shame on Vodafone. I took me 1 hour to test every single aspect of the uprade process...

The new ROM on the Vodafone pages (at least in ther german version) is
a) the same for Hermes (VPA Comapct III) and Herald (VPA compact IV). That cannot be right!!!! It´s not the same modell
b) it´s not a german but a swiss ROM
I tried to install it on a Hermes. It must be CID-unlocked to work because it´s a german ROM branded by swisscom for Hermes
Even with a CID-unlocked Herald you cannot install it.
I can´t understand why Vodafone puts that ROM on their page. It must be a mistake!!
Let´s wait for a corrrection of it

official Vodafone statement!
i spoke with Vodafone Business Germany yesterday. they confirmed its a corrupted installer. they cannot remove it quickly (its a Big Company and it was friday....) so they told me to wait until tuesday... (written on a wm6 , sorry for the grammar)
apple*

is there already a WWE or a DUT rom available or only the GER rom?
if so, plz give me a link

new one is on!
;-)

How do you identify it as a new one? Did you upgrade succesfully?
** CONFIRMED **
Got a phonecall from Vodafone Technical Support for Business Clients: Vodafone VPA compact 4 German WM6 upgrade DOES WORK now!
(The upgrade for VPA compact 3 still does not work..)

Update is not working on a dutch vodafone herald. So will have to wait

Sorry, but it cannot work on the P4350 or the VPA comapct IV as it is a ROM for the hermes (HTC TyTN), which is a complete different device. so it´s not a wrong installer but a wrong ROM.
On my HTC TyTN it is working perfectly.

Post the ROM
I'm waiting for a Dutch Vodafone ROM for a long long time now. I'm even willing to try a GERMAN Vodafone ROM.
But (there is always as but) my partnumber isn't recognised as a GERMAN phone, so no downloading for me.(http://member.htc.com/ruudownload/Vodafone_HermesWM6SnCheck.aspx)
Please post the ROM in the uploads or somewhere.

Hacked it
Nothing a little SQL injection couldn't fix. Will try to RUU it and will upload it...

Fehler [294]: UngÜltige VerkÄufer-id
The German Vodafone ROM isn't oke for my Dutch Vodafone HTCP4350. Will upload the file... But how/where?

Hello
Can somebody share the extantion ROM cabs for the installation of the networksettings of vodafone or tell me how I can get them?
Thanks in advance
Tommy

debranded rom

some people on ebay are selling debranded tg01s i contacted one and he said that he has the factory tg01 rom but was unwilling to sell it but would install it on my phone if i sent it to him with £20, anyway my question is
1. does anyone here have the factory rom to completly debrand from orange uk?
2. if no to above do you think it would be easier to decrypt the debranded rom compared to the orange branded one as it may be worth getting it to dump here?

Its either a sim free model or he has just removed the bootup and shutdown screens. Personally If a debranded rom was out there it would already have been posted so save you £20 (and your phone)

thats what i was thinking o well

i contacted a guy from ebay about debranding & he said he had the original toshiba firmware that removed carrier branding....
not sure if this sounds plausable......

maybee its a tosh employee making a bit of extra cash i would
and that would explain why not willing to sell me the cab
or as BaconTrousers said just someone removing bootscreen ect.
i am tempted.

The only one debranded rom is Italian so it's possible that he sells TG01 with translation package installed...

Italian ROM is debranded and it's better, i read about some voice problem in orange ROM.
But I see WM 6.6 in youtube running in our device. There is a system to install a new ROM in TG01 but we don't know.

can't someone use the italian debranded rom and create a custom rom from that? maybe even translate it into english, would be great even a custom rom in italian would be good

I've used leaked O2 then official Orange UK now I'm using leaked Orange UK (little bit stripped down from obsolette apps) had also Italian rom but i'ts based on 21840 build (leaked roms are 21856) so there is annoying bug in Start menu that closes after opening any settings ...
I've made translation for Italian German and UK rom to Polish so i think it's possible to translate Italian rom to english but I don't have time and motivation to do this...

Hi, I'm from RO, speaking a little bit of italian, owning an orange locked tg01(one of the first devices in RO), so I've upgraded(finally, one week ago) to wm6.5 italian ROM,by curiosity, encountering no problems so far:good signal on phone calling in/out, installed srs wow v.4(again curiosity, personally no need of it), 3 gps apps(iGO8.3.2, garmin&Automapa6.1.0.876+gpsgate2.6), awesome start=everything working fine, no random soft reset, waiting for a (god[xda]blessed) custom ROM..
edit:Nico, maybe we'll find, somehow, a motivation for you: let us know!!!

Generally you'll need rgu files from dumped UK rom all files containing 409 (mui, dat html txt bin) cpp_englocalization.dll (I think it's the right file name or something like this) DotNetLocalization.dll(to translate powersave and some other settings) thread_style.css, wc_style.css, wmStyles.css(translation of sms app) and WiFiSettingsLocalizationRes.dll i think that's all sorry for little bit chaotic description but I really don't have much time to write this.

What is this 'Leaked Orange ROM' of which you speak?
Could it be leaked to the forums, so we can play?

I'm using an Orange TG01 and the only branding I can see is that the windows boot screen is an orange background. I don't see any software or links to tell me it's an orange branded rom.
I bought it off ebay, and was told it was using a factory unlocked rom.
could this be the ROM you're talking about? What should I look for?

Dodge0069,
Was it from an eBay user called i_sell_fones ? Here is his current listing.
Apart from being de-branded, it would have come with Spb MObile Shell pre-installed.
If so then that's the one. I don't personally know if a dump of the ROM would tell the experts anything, but be useful to at least know if this additional piece of material could potentially be available !

Guys there aren't debrandet rom. All rom is the same, Orange UK and France, Vomistar Spain, Italian don know and some more all of them branded. May be unlocked but branded. On the market you can't buy debranded because Toshiba still don't sell it.

Italian ROM is brand-free:as far as I've noticed in 2 weeks of using it.

Where do i see branding other than on the back of the phone, and the orange colored windows startup screen?

has it got any orange apps on it?
TV player or orange plus or orange maps?
if these apps aren't available from your start menu then they're aren't installed, BUT they may still have thier .cab files in the root of windows?
i partially debranded my phone by hard reset then before 1st set up, i deleted the install paths to cab files i didn't want to use in the registry... i wasn't brave enough with my deleting as there is still some orange stuff there !!!
cheers

There are no orange cabs
I have no installed orange apps
Also, i've hard reset, and it SPB Shell 3.0.1 is installed in the ROM.

[Q] HTC Mini HD - In Greek want English

Can anyone help me with this. I have an HD Mini HD which came with a Greek OS. I want to change it to English.
I have tried flashing the ROM using the links on Shipped Roms dot Com but have not been able to do this for various reason.
The UK ROMS are for specific suppliers such as Vodafone and O2 but these will not load (and I don't think I actually want them to be loaded either as I don't have a Vodafone or O2 simm card).
My provider is Vodafone/Cyta in Cyprus.
Can anyone help?
Regards,
David

use SSPL...
