Hello!
Ok before posting i did a lot of research to try to find a threaded sms....I know that most of you will say to just upgrade to another rom..problem is that I tried several roms on this thread, and they just did not work for me, they often locked up, or didn't come with features i needed that stock rom has. I had to soft reset over and over hard reset a few times with the other roms.
So now i am just wondering if there is a cab for arcsoft that can be used on the new tmo wing rom?
Thanx!
hi
i was also searching for it last week,
hope this link helps you....

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
Hiya guys,
Have been reading up about flashing my touch HD for the last week now, and am pretty ready to flash my Orange HTC. I will most likely go down the USPL method.. but my question is trying to find a 1.19.61.1 WWE Orange original Rom in case I need to go back?
In the wiki it has a rar file for it, but it does not seem to llok official or tested? Does anyone know how I can either back mine up? and possibly post it here? or is anyone in the process of getting a RUU file for Orange 1.19 soon?
Thanks
that file on the wiki is the signed nbh file
it has to be used with the custumRUU thing
ive not tested so i cant tell you for sure
This would be useful for me as well as thinking about flashing mine
I'd find it useful too, although I've always flashed new ROMs even if I didn't have a way back to a stock ROM
did a search again today and it seems like people did try the one in the wiki.. so am gonna try flashing today!

If you use the one in the wiki you will be fine. I've tried and tested this.
flashed to dutty v2 for now, thought I would wait til the bugs are ironed out for the latest one.. But anyone got all the settings for Orange? I can not get onto Orangeworld anymore as it does not think I have an Orange phone.. have searched and found a few cabs but they did not seem to work.. if anyone has the internet connection settings that would be great..

Have you tried Rabdo's Orangeworld fix ????? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=316763
Same problem here, flashed from orange 1.19 to Davideuk V-2 Topaz and am now denied access to orangeworld. Tried the 1.5 settings and fix from Rabdo linked to above but made no difference. In HD Tweak there is a section to select stock HD id, Orange HD id or another (I forget which). This didn't work either
ended up calling them up and getting all the settings. told them to addd touchHD settings to the web though so hopefully they will do this. If i get a mo, will write settings down here.. thanks for finding the rabdo cab, will try it next time I flash!
pratishk: are you now using a non-stock rom and able to visit orangeworld? If so please post the settings
::edit:: gah it was me being an idiot all along! www.orangeworld.co.uk doesn't work, cos the address is http://orangeworld.co.uk sorry for wasting anyone/everyones time
I plucked up courage to flash this rom,I knew I shouldn't have,I am in trouble now,Colours missing,screen not responding,will not sync with PC,cannot hard reset by either method.So at a complete loss,any ideas would be a help.
Have to go out now will not be able to respond for a few hours.
Here's hoping
Don
You may have a problem with the SPL as you are using a non-stock ROM..
Don't panick, the [HSPL]Hard-SPL for Blackstone thread details how to restore the stock SPL if things go wrong, and how to install an updated Hard SPL or USPL for the purposes of using non-stock ROMs.
Found an additional page (HTC_Blackstone_Rom 156) concerning ROM flashing and SPL problems you may find useful.
Thanks I'll look into that
Don
Hi,thank you so much again Nerdino,All ok thanks to you
Don
For what it`s worth I too had the courage to first time flash my hd with the official Orange update today.
I have to say that I had no problems at all....as I have read elsewhere it DOES seem to have made the whole phone respond quicker....Opera seems a lot faster, google maps is a lot faster and generally seems worthwhile.
Hope that helps someone decide wether to or not.
Rick
It seems to work very well, however, there seems to be a bug with notifications... When I set email or sms to display a message on screen, it becomes unticked the next day!!
This is really frustrating... Going to try a hard reset to see if that helps!
Anyone else seeing that?
Simon
Folks, already a thread on this here. Please post further queries in that thread.

Hi this is my first post on xda, and this maybe a noob Q.
But I just bought a mogul that was already flashed to metropcs's service and now its under my account with working wap and mms. But im having a few issues with the phone and I'd really liked to just get a new custom rom and flash it from wm 6.1 to 6.5
My Q. is if i flash my mogul will it still be on metropcs or will it revert back to alltel wireless? And will i have to pay to reflash it?

The answer is, it depends. If you have a custom ROM currently installed that began with the carrier settings cooked in, a hard reset won't revert your settings to Alltel.
What I would recommend is that you check out a couple threads by RyanMogul6800. He has two versions of custom Mogul ROMs with the carrier settings cooked in already. Here and here.
If you've never flashed a ROM before, please check this out first and follow all the instructions carefully. Good luck!
thanks a ton. i really appreciate the speedy reply and now i think im just gona reflash the phone. thanks again
please help im wishing to upgrade my offical rom from 1.43 to 1.48 but says my phone is not suitable??????im totally thick coming from nokia to windows,i did use search but was unable to find the answer.
thanks phil
Hello and welcome on board,
Can you post up the exact error message you are getting please?
Also read this thread...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=609477 which you will fond useful and come back with any questions.
Incidentally you are not a fool for asking as long as you have searched first.

hi mate thanks for the reply,when i go to the htc offical rom download,i'm asked to enter my serial number,which i do but says my device is not suitable and won't let me proceed any further??
cheers phil
got a major problem now ive tried to update to 1.48 but it crashed now i get a warning traingle on start up,and can go into bootloader screen and it says upgrade rom code error please try again???someone please help.i hope i havent bricked my phone
Is your HD2 branded? (bought it in combination with a contract?)
hi mate its on vodafone contract buts its not branded.
Hi again,
Have you tried to hard reset your phone to see if the old rom boots up again?
If it does not then you might want to reflash your existing rom onto your phone using the SD card method (look at the threads at the top of the Rom Development page to find what you are looking for).
If it works and you are still keen to upgrade the rom you need to read the threads on using either the Goldcard or HardSPL methods to upgrade.
Come back and let us know how you got on.
WB
hi mate i was having the exact same probs as the chap in the hd2 bricked thread,same messages etc and stopping at 9% i took there advice and reflashed the hpsl again which has worked a treat,i'm now a little dubious bout trying to upgrade as i don't fancy bricking it.
ive emailed htc to see why i cant upgrade from 1.43 to 1.48 seems odd it says my phone isnt suitable.
p.s thanks for the help mate much appreciated
OK, wait until you hear back from them. However if you are now up and running and have installed HardSPL, I think you will find that flashing a new radio on its own might help solve your problems.
I think if you look at the thread you were referring to (this one...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=618084), IIRC, MysticGenius runs through a procedure for doing this that helped him sort out a similar problem.
Good luck with it.
WB
PS: Lesson learned here though is to read exhaustively on the topics on here BEFORE jumping in as fixing problems later can be both time consuming, if you are lucky, and a pain in the rear. As for that horrible sick feeling you get when you think you have bricked £500 worth of phone....wouldn't recommend it to my worst enemy!
