Is my O2 xda nova a ELF or ELFIN model? - Touch GSM General

Hello all, I need to flash my xda nova , but after some reading of the threads here, I got a little confused, I wounder if anyone could help me with my question.
The Model Number of my xda nova is ELF0200 , so it seems to be a ELF one according to CyZeeK in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=379034
but this nova has a 256mb ROM , 128mb RAM. this seems a feature of enhanced model of S1.(ELFIN?)
So what spl should I upgrade and which rom can I select for my flashing work?
could anyone help me with this?
THanks in advance.

Its an elfin
With that rom and ram, it´s for sure an elfin

But most Elfins are ELF0100. It's very unusual one.

MDAIII Compact - Which ROM?

Hi guys,
im new to this forum, so hello to you all
I have worked my way through the WIKI (which is great btw) and before i go any further i have a couple of questions.
I have the UK t-mobile version, ROM Version 1.13.110.1 WWE, basically i would like an updated version (if there is one) with all of the HTC software - looking through the WM6 threads doesnt look like there will be a version avaible for this phone, so might as well get it upto date as possible!
I have downloaded
Dopod_P800W_1.25.709.104_CHT_Extrom.rar
HTC_P3300_1.12.405.101_WWE_ExtROM.zip
both are extended ROMs, - which is best? also - what is the difference between a ROM and extended ROM?
Thanks for your help guys

I would like to know in your opinion which one is the best ROM to put on the device in terms of stability, speed, battery, applications and so on...is there a clear winner in this respect or more then one ROM could be the good choise?
Which one do you recommend me?
Thank you for the help

o2 XDA Guide RoM

Does anyone have a rombackup of the O2 xda guide UK. I updated my ROM from here but now having loads of problems.. and like they say hindsight is always with a price! . Any help appreciated. Tks Jay
U must look at the O2-Site.
But, the Iolite names XDA Guide in Germany. In UK too? U search a german ROM?
Greetings!
No I am looking for a UK Rom. I have a very sluggish phone after upgrading to Billabong's ROM
Thanks
Jay
For my opinion, the best and fastest WWE is THIS one.
It is a 6.1 build 21054 (latest) The best 6.5 is "Billabongstaff"
Greetings!

Now is my Question: i want to flash my rom because its WM 6.1 and i heared alot of great things about WM 6.5 is that trough ?
Also if i flash my HTC TOUCH HD, will my simlock dissapear or something ?
Cause on my last phones it was, i flashed it and i needed to unlock it again and more headache.
Is it normal that the simlock will reactivate if its flashed to WM6.5 ??
If the htc still unlocked.
Which ROM you all will advice me ? i really prefer Dutch roms, but english roms are also oke.
and also tell me why, so i can get all the benefits of it

Hi biggie89,
Yes, the good news is that there have been many advancements and improvements to the Windows Mobile OS in version 6.5, such as having a more finger friendly User Interface - providing you with a much neater and tidy user experience. Speed varies depending on which 6.5/6.5.x ROM you choose to install and you will be glad to know that both Dutch and English ROMs are available for download
The bad news is that if you flash your HD in it's current state (simlocked), then I am afraid that this is unlikely to work until you get your SIM unlocked as the simlock is controlled by the baseband. Data is stored there too and flashing the radio or ROM will not have any effect on the simlock. Therefore, I would advise you to have it unlocked before you begin the flashing process.
Here is a guide that you can read to make you more aware of how to flash a Touch HD ROM. Essentially, what you must do first is unlock your phone using either Hard-SPL or USPL.
You can also see this link as it details what the latest ROM builds offer in terms of stability and performance.
I think it would be a little unfair to say which ROM is best especiallly for the people who create these custom ROMs. Each ROM is different in their own little way i.e. one ROM might be fast but a little unstable, another may be stable but a little slow, etc... The best thing you can do is try out different ROMs (Dutch or English versions) yourself and try to discover which one meets your needs.
Note: when you get to the stage of downloading a ROM, to find a Dutch based ROM, simply look at the headings of the ROMs listed from this link. Dutch ROMs include the abbreviation NLD in their title [NLD = Netherlands], and English ROMs have WWE in the title [WWE = World Wide English].
I hope this helps you out.
Regards.
Mastoid is correct. Flashing to a new rom, even if you use hspl, will unfortunately not unlock the sim.
There are tools that can do that, but it is not free. You can try this one which seems to be popular and effective.
Hi all and thanks for your reply on my message..
My htc HD works now with my vodafone NL simcard so its not simlocked or something i think i wrote my question wrong..
Im scared if i FLash my rom that the unlocking of my device comes back, So i can't use my vodafone NL simcard with it.
Is that possible ??
the current state is unlocked or locked with vodafone i dont know for sure but you guys tell me that if i FLASH my rom now i still can use my vodafone NL simcard ???
if that is the way i will flash my rom in to a nice ROM that u guys told me to do..
the thing what i want to is..
USE my vodafone NL simcard with my htc touch HD like now but with a different ROM.
my htc touch HD is working great with WM 6.1 with a vodafone NL simcard.
so im still confused with the simcard if it will work.
do you guys think that it will work with WM6.5 ??

Flashing a rom does not affect the status of the simcard so it will still work. Just follow the Dummies Guide (link by Mastoid above) and you'll be fine

It's the same phone, but it is just the european name. What the problem with the serial number is, I don't know. Maybe you were on the english site or something? And if that doesn't work, I think you will find a rom here.
Help me please!!
Can you help me to find best rom for my phone please?
I want to upgrade to latest rom winth win 6.5.

Panos
Welcome to forums
Enter to Topaz section and have a look on the many Chefs threads.
I can recommend Energy ROM´s
Read, Search, Respect and Enjoy!

Cannot Update rom
Hello im trying for 3 days to upgrade the rom and i cant.
I read something about SPL .
Can anyone give me more details please?
Best regards,

Here's a guide:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=520312
Thank you
That was helpful thanks!!!
I don't think you can upgrade the stock ROM if your serial number does not tally with HTC database. You even can't install using someone else serial number. The RUU just will not write to your TD2. I had tried to install EU ROM upgrade using my Asia serial number but failed.
Another option is to check your SPL version and flashed back with it's shipped SPL.
If all else fail, your only solution is to HSPL your device and flash with cooked ROMs available at TD2 section. There are many available. Some are better than HTC stock upgrades.
Good luck.

How to "BREAK" a T-Mobile-Branded HTC HD2 - GERMAN TMO

Hi fellows,
I searched a while but could not find a solution for my problem...
I am using a HTC HD2 branded and "locked" by T-Mobile Germany.
Using my S/N I can not download original HTC-ROMs.
So my only option is using TMO-Roms from their website... :-/
I want to install NAND-Version of Android because WinMo is so embarassing. Especially the "Marketplace" is really NOT good... -.-
I tried to follow the manuals on your pages, but I can not find a hint for my problem...
Do I have to "break" anything to get any other Rom running?
I found sth. called "GoldCard" but... oh my god... Very complicated!
I hope you guys can help me.
It would be awesome.
Thanks a lot!

Hspl4, choose 2.08.hspl
can now flash anything, but use USB, not SD.
you will want to change radio first as things needed for android require high version radios. Go for 2.15.50.x radio.
If your current winmo rom is version 3.14 you wont need to change radio.
I've the same phone:
HD2 HTC with german t-mobile software, but it is not branded on the cover.
Also it says it has 512mb of rom and 448 of ram
SO I think it should be the EU HTC, and i should use rom and guides for the EU version
Can someone pleas confirm me it is the european version?
I don't want to brick my phone the first time i change the rom ahhaah
search the hd2 nand android forums and there should be a sticky for it
