Hi everyone, my first time here, I have an HTC Touch from Rogers, I failed to upgrade the ROM version for my Elfin, by mistake I downloaded the CDMA version and try to upgrade my GSM Touch. As a result my HTC stays on the 3 color screen, and I've already tried all the possible solution that are recommended on this forum, I haven't tried the Gold Card, and I guess that I need the original ROM for this HTC. The point here is that following the procedure to obtain the model of the HTC with the MTTY software on the log it doesn't shows the Model or CID. So I can really know what ROM is the one to download. At the back of HTC it shows ELF0101.
I really don't know what else to do and trying to make a Gold Car is really complicated because I really don't know much about computers or cell phones.
Is there another way to find out the Model and the CID ?
Does anyone has the same model ELF0101 from ROGERS ?
Can you please help me ?
Sorry for my writting, havent been practicing my writting in english I'm from Monterrey, Mexico.
Thanks to everybody
And sorry if this post is not to be here...
Yours is ELF010150 and ROGER001, just like mine.
Search for a shipped ROM with ELF010150 as the Model ID.
There is a Quebec Rogers one (ELF010150 ROGER202).. search for that, and use it in your Gold Card.

You need to replace the SDDL of the rom by the tg01_sddl+.exe from this FTP
thanks man,but by the way,what do you mean by replace the SDDL?do you mean I should change the flie name or....?
just delete the old "sddl.exe" (from rom folder)
and copy\paste the new "sddl+.exe" (from the ftp) in your storage card with the prg folder of the rom..

I understand that use of SDDL+.exe is now considered obsolete since there is a hardware method of entering bootload available... following links refer:

TG-01 Flash Unlock
Hello.
Could someone advise whether flashing the TG01WP-WM6.5-Generic-IT.zip as described in this thread (two pin short) gives a no-sim-lock phone?
Would flashing Orange TG01WP-WM6.5-Orange-UK.zip onto a Generic ROM then give an Orange branded phone with no sim-lock?
Thanks in advance - Looking to save a few Pounds and get up and running quickly!

I doubt it. Mine was an orangeRO locked, flashed on italian ROM with sddl+ and still orange locked.
Not able to install the English rom
I tried installing the English version downloaded from the Toshiba website.. it says the variant is in valid... can some body help me.
Did you paste the due files at the SD Card root, or inside a subfolder? Trouble could come from that...
The files are on the root of the SD Card... It says SD download failed...
I suppose you used sddl+ as indicated...
By this way, "SD dowloading failed variant is invalid"; was not this the error message when french user tried to get an UK Rom, for instance, on Toshiba Website, and Orange did not want their customers play "rom travel" game? I am not sure I remember well about this; did you have to give your IMEI at some point?
Yes i Used My IMEI number to download the toshiba website to download the english rom
Guys if you have any TG01 buyed in EU you can pud any TG01 ROM Spaish,English,Italian etc... But if it's a Japanese or Asian TG01 don't play with it.
To change rom just pud in the SD /prg/ file and SDDL+ ne one from stepw and run it. If not the same system but we don use SDDL we use a short pin. You can find everyting on forum.
So, trying to test my understanding: (with bits of informations here and there, on this forum and others, I'm getting rather confused)
There would be different "kinds" of Tsunagis, depending wether they were sold in EU or Asia. (hardware? Toshiba programming level?)
Among european TG, due to commercial treaties with Orange, some (French, English, Helvetian) TG would be Orange branded, and sold Orange locked, while Italian TG would be unbranded?
So, if you have an Orange branded TG, still Orange locked or unlocked, you cannot just change to any European WM6.5 Rom just dowloading it from Toshiba website, where you have to "tell" your country giving your IMEI. (you would stumble on that "invalid variant" error message)
Instead, must use the stepw way, refered to in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=629586, (or http://www.adryan.evonet.ro/pocket pc/Toshiba TG01/ROM-uri/), or the "short pin" confused: whatever that might be, my poor english don't allow me to understand much about it)
But this would be "dangerous" for an Asian TG, though, unless I missed the information, eekthecat did not say for how long he had been using his phone before he tried, and if he knew for sure his TG was a well working one and not a disastrous bugger (at least some french tsunagists had many problems with theirs, and gave up for another device after some exchanges that did not improve the situation, the fourth proving sometimes worse than the third!)
Wish things will be easier with cooked ROM...
meerau if interested in changing ROM, PM me and I'll help you.Je peux t'aider.
Hi guys I'm new here..just registered after spending most of last night reading ROM developments for the TG01 for the last 1 year or so. I gotta admit that instead of wanting to move away from TG01 (given all the difficulties and misadventures with the set..from other posters) I feel even more compelled to keep the one I recently purchased..crazy right!?!
Anyways I have some info and some questions..will start with the question:
1. I just purchased a TG01 (unbranded) from Italy. The set is running WM6.1 and is brand new..still in the box. I would like to change the ROM to English and the only reason for that is that I prefer english despite understanding both languages...other than that I have no desire to go further and install UI variations of other phones (HTC, etc) as I really see no point in creating problems for myself..what I gather from most posts is that alot of users apply mod's which temporarily seem fine and balanced BUT eventually lead to some sort of problem which is then modded thus solving the initial problem but creating a new one..so on and so forth until phone in many cases dies. (Comment: I am confused why many users flash their ROMS to English when they can't even speak or read English at a basic level?!? Once again I dont see the point..someone enlighten me ...ooops back to the question...So..is there any suggestion or help I can recieve in changing the ROM from Italian to English? Should I do this after the 6.5 upgrade in Italian or? Suggestions please.
2. Toshiba Asia recently started realeasing TG01 to certain Asian countries and one that may be of interest for a generic English Language ROM is Malaysia. I recently picked-up a TG01 in a store in Kuala Lumpur and it was a locally certified and guaranteed set with no 'Telcom Carrier Branding'. It was unlocked and not an import phone from other TG01 markets..and the ROM was in ENGLISH!! This TG01 came preinstalled with WM6.5 (not 6.1) but I had no intention of buying it as I already have the new italian set and more importantly it costs more than 500 Euros vs. the Italian one I bought for a net 287 Euros.
Maybe this can be a new and more reliable lead on how to get a generic ENG ROM instead of playing doctor frankenstein with 'carrier branded' ROMS in English.
Looking forward to hearing your comments.
Ciao
Sorry to bother all of you. After 80 plus hours i am close to give up and sell my HD2 or dump it.
Bought a "English HD2" in Shanghai. Found out its a old ROM with many problems. Downloaded the new ROM from HTC and got a traditional Chinese version and for sure I do not speak Chinese. .Means iI can never use or update the phone if i leave like that.
Started research, found a HK SN and and downloaded from HTC a Hongkong english version and installed it.
Installed the win frame work update to.
It worked but there is no phone keyboard anymore but now i can input in CHINESE! I need the phone keyboard I cant life with out one.
Found the EzInput soft key and installed several times, every time after installing it the phone wont start anymore and only a hard reset can bring it to life again. I made a soft rest before installing the keyboard.
Can any body help me with the keyboard?
Or any information where to get a NEW ROM which works in English but need to be able to show( not type) Chinese characters.
I am begging all of you, my eyes are red, my girlfriend is so upset that she went back to her parents and I had to switch back to my E75. SAFE me please
Rom version installed: 1.72.831.1 (82124)
OS: 5.2.21869(21869.5.0.82
Tow more glitches i can't fix.
Switched it on after hard reset. Now the time is wrong. 27 min wrong and i don't know why. I set the time manual now.
Location is most times wrong. I life in Shanghai and I am all times set in Shenzhen or Suli or somewhere elsei If i drive suddenly the location corrects to Shanghai
instal hspl2 and then you can instal any rom you like (over usb).
Thanks for your answer. Unfortunately I am not a developer. If i follow what you suggested what happen? No rom software anymore? Where do i find the rom(cab file )i need?
Question
Do you mind if I ask you how much you paid for your HD2 in Shanghai? Did you order it, or buy it there? Thanks!
You can probably get a better answer to your questions in the ROM Development section of the forum.

Hey Mate,
I have the Telstra HD2 which has loads of crap software, so all I did was run the HSPL (HERE: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=611433) and then found the Asia WWE (World Wide English) ROM here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=623283&highlight=WWE, it has the serial number for you to download directly from HTC.
I have been using the South East Asia (Asian WWE) 1.66.707.1, with no issues.
Hope this helps

I can buy it but, İf it not support hd mini it will be meaningless. Please write me more information, I need more help due to the fact that i cant use them with sim card. Thanks
Hello everyone, I am a new user name I'm Italian savior ...... here's my problem: I bought a t-mobile htc hd2 used in America, but the phone did not work with my sim so I tried to Italian put a different ROM, EPROM, but the Italian crashed, I called the HTC here in Italy but since the phone is t-mobile told me that I had to adjust to the T-Mobile in America ........ I want to know is like the contact t-mobile to let me fix my phone? Thanks in advance for help. greetings to all!
Sounds to me that you put an Italian official carrier ROM onto a T-Mobile US HD2...which means that you have bricked your device. There is currently no 100% method to unbrick a device bricked in this manner, so your best bet is more than likely to just buy a new HD2.

Okay, my present goal is to directly flash/program the eprom. When I did slot tech back in the late 80's, we did this to slot machines. So I know there is a way. Easier said, these tablets get programmed like a cmos before they are put together. It would be nice though if anybody would be willing to tell us the how-they-do-it part, but I now have about 7 bricks to play with. As soon as I unbrick one, I'll post the how to. If anyone has tried and wants to share and group think this, I'm game.
