Complete noob need help in updating to windows 6.5 - Touch HD General

Okk i hav just got my htc touch hd and want to update it to windows 6.5 all the stuff here is damn confusing like in a nutshell
BLAC100 32M
SPL-1.14.0000
MicroP-BlackStone (LED) v6
this is wat i get wen i switch on the mobile by pressing the volume button.
I hav gone through the "[TUT] Dummies guide: flashing 1.56+ roms [v 2.0] - [HSPL][USPL]"
for starters which method is better for me HSPL or USPL also to wat i cud understand HSPL seems better but i dont get wat this means in the procedure "A 1.56+ based rom- Dutty's latest rom" 2nd step in the guide why is this done i wanna update to 6.5 so which file shud i select frm tht post there r so many.
Am so condused this is nothing lik hacking and modifying psp i dont wanna brick ma htc touch hd so not takin any rash deicisions and goin wid the update
Plzzz tell me how shud i go about this.

As you have not modified your phone the first thing you need to do is update your ROM using the official updated ROM from HTC you can download this from www.HTC.com it's the new 1.56 one you need.
After you have done this you can either use HSPL or USPL to flash a custom ROM to your phone neither is better than the other. In short USPL lets you flash without changing your SPL and is easier to restore to factory if it goes faulty. HSPL is easier is you flash alot of ROMs as you can just flash without running USPL. The procedure for both are in the Threads in the ROM forum
As for picking a ROM thats entirely up to you i cant tell you which is better than which but i can tell you that i use duttys and have no issues.
If you have anymore questions just give me a shout

Okk i was in a hurry lol to try new things i just saw ur post tday i already went and used the olinex hard spl for blackstone and flashed the rom i got sum color issues but wen i switched of the screen and strted it again it was workin fine thn i updated to mira windows 6.5 its well and good but it clean install nuthin is dere i need to install everythin its fine wid me.
I need a rom which uses manila i want it to be little flashy i am kind of a show off also more emphasis on battery i travl far and listen to music also i got the proper software for all ma need lik WinVibePro for music sum flash games i hav done the l8est net configurations , i use agile messenger for chatting any other messenger which supports multiple chat clients and different ids of same client.

You could try NRG28 ROM its pretty slick although a little heavy on battery, as the above poster I am also on Duttys 6.5 ROM, R9, its very stable.
If you dont like the standard setup check the themes available and also the (post your screens) in themes thread you will be surprised what some people can do.
You shouldnt have to flash a different radio unless your having problems with connections etc
Start with the ROMs then work from there

I don't know if this has been answered yet, but will SIP-backup restore my text-messages if I backup my WM6.1 and restore it in WM6.5?

Thanks! I meant PIM backup, so that's what I'll use, next step is to download Dutty's WM6.5

Well lol i tried all 3 roms by Miri, Dutty, and NRG28 and by far jst love the interface of NRG28 aesthetically amazin to look at though battery drain is alot but if you are a show off like me this is gonna be a complete eye pleaser to all the ladies plus its got all the stuff u need jst a few extra addition lik WinVibe pro player as only this has tempo adjustment and repeats the same song again and again, a comic book reader , divx player, omniano, core player, keep bluechatting and well thts about it though i did lik Duttys home screen the way shortcuts can be added dere but thn again i feel its kinda small lik am seein the screen of a htc diamond maybe ma imagination but i lik ma screen long and wide lol.
Anways thanks for all ur help dude u guys rock helped me get the hang of all this mannn was kinda scared in the beginnin of screwin up the mobile or certain function becomin obsolete lik wifi , gps etc lol know i am cool as a button hehehe

videos dont save after pdaviet rom upgrade

I have realized that my wing dooesnt save the videos that I recorded, which after I ve upgraded my rom to pdaviet. im sure that's a setting to do so. can someone help me out?
What video player are you using? Try installing a different video player.
TCMP is one of the favorites out there.
so wut u saying is after install tcpmp , my phone will save the file(video ) that i recorded on my camera automatically..rite?
haha. My bad .. I only slept 4 hrs last nite ... and its already 1am ... I for some reason thought you wrote that they don't PLAY.
Go into your camera settings, and make sure everything is ok in there. Are you sure its just not saving to some random place in ur phone or storage card.
nope....everything is okie...nothing in the folder. it save pics tho..it's weird..oh by the way , my gurl has a wing too and hers dont even save neither..
we both use the same pdaviet 's rom.
Switch over to the Touch IT rom
The first Rom I ever flashed was PDAVIET, but you have no idea how much better the TouchIT 4.x Rom is.
These are the 3 things you are going to need.
HARD-SPL
Touch-IT v4.4 and 4.41 WWE P4350
KEYBOARD FIX for WING / HERALD & ROMS
I'll help you out if you have any questions.
yeh i had ppl to me that it's a good one. i'd like to do that...but one thing..i'm like a newbie..lol..never flash..i used the file u posted in the pdaviet thread..is that anyway that u can put everything together ? or i have to flash back to tmobile factory rom?
You should go ahead and flash the Tmo Rom just to be on the safe side.
If you want, I'll walk you thru the process. Send me an IM

Help The Noob!!!!

Hello
P.s. Is this the right thread i am posting i dont know....is this is a wrong thread and if i am not supposed to post here then i am sorry for my noobness.....
well, dought a diamond few days back....its a used piece that has no warrenty.....so i have been thinking of modding it with new rom and s/w.....well basically i am a noob in upgrading roms...but i have seen my friend do it a couple of times,felt its a no sweat process....and i wanna try my hand at it....
well basically i need a good rom....(i know i should have searched the forum for roms....but i need your valuable Wisdom in choosing the right rom cause if i choose a wrong one i might mess things up.....and no i am not Lazy)
well...i want a good rom....plz suggest me a few...i will now mention what i need in my phone....so plz..be patient
i need
Windows Mobile OS Rom(preferably The Latest 6.1 cause its the stable one around....i dont know about 6.5 is it any good..?)
can i have the cube application in the Diamond......it would look cool to use it...
Mobile Office,Pdf Reader,yahoo messenger,a nice all in one media player..(like vlc on pc platform....it plays everything i throw at it...i just love it..)
i would also like to have the Htc Touch Viva Blue Theme.....i dont Know what its called but i saw it on my friend phone and it was pleasent...
Hey, u know that your phone can brick, right?
You really should read a lot about flashing before doing it.
Start >here<
After that proceed here
If you read everything carefully and want to flash a new ROM be shure to
do it step by step as it's suggested.
And I guess you have read it quite often, but you have to find your own ROM.
Try some and then decide which to use. It's most satisfying^^
And yes, 6.1 is more stable than 6.5 for now so you should take a 6.1 ROM.
But have a look at these two ROMs. I have tryed them both besides many other and I used the A.Z.T.O.R. series for a long time -> very stable and really fast! Will use it again when X3 will be released I don't know if they fit all of your personal needs, but especially for some special theme or so on you should search the Thread you posted this request
A.Z.T.O.R.
udK Syrius
Good luck!
PS.: Please use a topic that contains some more information next time
oh dang i could only get to the first sentence because i have cdma
Thanks for the reply marcel .....i know that i am risking it...but hey...better to die than live a coward all my life ....i want to go thru this...
and okay nxt time i will name the thread more appealingly....
I would recommend two options. You can use Cloudy 1.1 with and without Manila. I have tried both. The WITH Manila has the TF3D with it which is very nice. However, my preference is WITHOUT Manila and then add SPB Mobile Shell 3.0. This is more user friendly.
Both options are very fast and with lots of free ram (more than 50Mb)...
I am not sure if these work with CDMA - please check first.
By the way, I think there is so much great help on these sites (and PPC Geeks) that you will always find a way to get your phone looking and feeling the way you like.
Good luck!
Oops...!!!
Sorry i forgot to mention..the Diamond i right now have was flashed earlier...so right now its having a custom rom by diamond project team....well i am looking for a move basic rom.....which is almost or most likely official rom...
if you want a official rom you can visit HTC.com and download the latest official rom that have been released. whether or not you can use the custom spl without doing any harm i have no idea about since i do not know anything about roms and flashing i just know that HTC has official roms on their site
I think u can download ROMs from HTC if u own an original-HTC device, right?
I wasn't able to download their ROMs because I bought my Diamond from a German reseller
-> Same phone, nearly the same look but an unsupported IMEI (?)
And again I can propose an A.Z.T.O.R. ROM^^
Alpha Zero Tweaked Official Roms = A.Z.T.O.R.
And as your phone was flashed before you should have no probs flashing a new ROM^^ So try some and then choose
The Whole Story!!!
Actually The Diamond i Right now have was bought off the gray market..it was actually a orange network locked phone...so the phone is right now unlocked,gray market product....
Okie....i will take a look at AZTOR..
Ahem...
Well i decided to go with this hardspl....http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=400402 but i cannot seem to understand which radio file to choose....and Roms are Relatively not a big problem...i will try AZTOR OR Duttys..plz gimme a latest stable Radio file...

[Q]please help me guys

Hi, I have elfin (HTC Touch) and I have Windows Mobile 6 professional and I want to upgrade it to 6.5 so can anyone type me a link so I can download the ROM directly because there is more than one ROM in the forum and I'm afraid to download a wrong one so please help me...thanks
First you read this guide completely.

I read it well and I knew big information about my elfin but really I don't know how to start please tell my what to do first I can tell you the info about my elfin

mind my sarcasm...but he meant to say...to upgrade your device without damaging it...you will need to follow some instructions....and if you read it well and if you are a sane guy...then you would atleast EDIT your POST and remove the god damn IMEI of your device....people dont give away their IMEI jus like that you know...its something only you should know...and jus so you know...i m not trying to piss you off cos you are as we call a newbie....so here is a breakdown of what you need to do
1. your device is an ELFIN...so we know
2. jus like you unlock your sim to use your phone...you need to unlock your device...(so that it becomes writable)
3. to do so...you would need to make use of a part of software called USPL and IPL...USPL does the part of keeping your device unlocked...and IPL needs to remain the same series....if you flashed a USPL of 3.XX then your IPL shud be 3.XX series
4. now do the reading on your own this time and discover all flavours of 6.5 ROMS available here....
btw i wonder why you havent tried the official 6.1 ROM from HTC
thanks so much, first i don't know even the difference between the 6.1 and the 6.5 but when i saw some topics about 6.5 and the people said that it works better with the HTC touch so I think in that, now i made a backup ROM from the one i have is that good step and i already downloaded 2 different ROMs from the forum (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=552371 , http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=426540)
but how can i make the device rewritable is there a application i can download? and what's your opinion to upgrade to 6.1 or 6.5?

Tht's a good thing to backup your Original ROM, should be helpful in case of errors, bricking or re-servicing. (though i forgot to do mine )

Click to expand...

There's is no problem about being not rewritable or sort! Once you CID unlock and upgrade your IPL/SPL, you can upgrade or degrade your device to any ROM you like whenever u like!
About opinions, there are alot of people here and would obviously have their own different opinions and so you will have too! I'd ask you to try out ROMs yourself and use the suitable one you choose. If you'd like to have a stable ROM, i'd advice you to use the 6.1 ROMs and if you'd like to have newer latest builds, you can go for the 6.5 ROMs (which have been optimized to their best stable by respective cooks). In the end, its up to you which you choose as your BEST ROM!
PS: Do read if the ROM is suitable for your device, in this case- Elfin and few FAQs posted out by the ROM cook. Respect others work and last but not least Read & Search before asking Questions!!
Thank you very much I finally upgraded my elfin to windows mobile 6.5 and it's awesome but i still have one more thing i want to make it read and write Arabic language without convert the whole interface is there a patch? I already searched about that and i found a file but it's not an application and I don't know how to use it. before that in my old 6.0 i downloaded an application when i install it, it solves the whole situation then i tried it with the 6.5 but the start menu won't open after i installed it so i formatted the ROM.

hi, first of all, the backup you have done is probably not ready to be flashed, so whatever you do, dont flash that again or u will brick your phone.
arabic? take a look at this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=426281
and finally, i think it will be better if u update ur ipl to 3.10 too.
thanks crapula512 but what you mean with the backup not ready to be flashed? is there any other step ?

what he means is....you may brick the device with the backup you just created. so if you wana restore your original...which is the one you have backed up now...you should and can only flash that by making use of USPL or HSPL...search the forum for USPL and HSPL...and you will be given guides...
btw...you really like writing in bold letters eh...kinda makes us feel we are blind...

Dozens of Questions

Greetings,
I know am not supposed to ask questions in a new thread .. but i already posted in the Q&Athread and didnt recieve any replies
I changed my old samsung D840 for an htc hd mini .. i wanted to install apps , modify my software and so on .. but unfortunatly , after buying the mini , it turned out that 95% of the apps doesnt support the hvga screen , no games at all and ofc no themes at all .. imho , a winmo phone that doesnt support anything is totally worthless .. so i exchanged the mini for a used htc touch hd ... and i have been reading tons of guides about roms, radios , spl and so on ... and am a bit confused , and i have dozens of questions to ask , i did use the search function, and no am not lazy to google what i want , but am in desperate need for some answers that i didnt find. so here we go..
1) As for SPL .. i read the whole guide , but i was wondering if USPL is safer than HSPL since HSPL permenantly remove something from the phone .. and does it infract the warranty terms?
2) When it comes to Roms , i see a huge number of roms ... i dont want to try lots of Roms till i find the one i like , cuz i guess i will do something wrong eventually and screw up my device ... i really liked the htc hd mini UI .. i was wondering if there is a ROM ( official one for the touch hd ) which is similar to the touch HD's one?
3)Assuming that there isnt any official ROMS like the one described above , which cooked ROM got the same UI as the hd mini , with no custom fancy stuff , not too much tweaks and modifications ... just a simple smooth Rom with the HD's nice UI and could play divx movies with no frames loss
4) whats a manila , touchflo and htc sense ? i couldnt really understand the difference
5) as i understood .. Radios are responsible for communication tasks , like wifi , gps and so on ... and some radios may work better than others according to places... Well, i live in egypt... should i try all the radios to find a good one that works here? if so .. are radios installed after unlocking the spl and installing a rom?
6)I bet all those custom ROMS doesnt support arabic .. so i was wondering if there any app that enables the phone to read arabic .. just on the web and sms ... dont need an arabic keyboard and so on
7) I dont have an sd card atm? Can i still flash a ROM? are there any consequences of flashing a ROM without a memory card?
8) as mentioned in the Customizing TF3D - The Collection! thread.. there is a v3.0 manila ( thts the new one ) .. so are v2 and 2.5 meant by "old manila" .. and all of those themes work on winmo 6.1 and 6.5 and only limited by the manila version?
9) Whats a custom RUU ? task 32 and 28? do i need to use one before flashing?
Well, i guess thats it .. i know those are a lot of questions ..but i would really appreciate some answers
Thnx in advance

Unfortunately until you flash back to stock ROM you have no warranty. Looks like cheating.. I know...
About that if this will be safer... I have no idea... It is imo easier to flash ROMs with HSPL but choice is yours. Remember about one thing. If you starts flashing you cannot stop Thats why I used HSPL. Also I'm using Linux at my home computer so this is only way i can flash ROM.

Try those provided by kwbr (TOPIX ones). I'm using one atm for about 3 months. There are also other ROMs but tbh i didn't check all of them, which is obvious
Check XDA for playing videos on Blackstone cause there are some problems with playing full length videos on it. There is an app to change movies to "fit Blackstone"

Ver. 2.0 is an old manilla. Maybe ver. 2.1 can be also called the old one. Manilla 2.5 work only on WinMo from ver. 6.5 Window Mobile 6.1 can only run manilla 2.0. To be honest i'm not so sure If i understood correctly your question :/ Every theme for manila depends on manila version so you have to check theme thread for which version of manila it supports.

Dear Friend
I think u didn't have your hands on a good 6.5 ROM
There are 6.5 ROMs with good battery backup in the OPAL forum
Jagan has created this magic for the first time but its a customized version, you may like it
But if u want a ROM like default HTC version you may try my ROM on this thread...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=655572
Its awesome on battery...just like original 6.5
Some users had a issue while installing this ROM because of different versions of ONBL on OPAL...
My ROM is based on OS 1.35.0.0 and ONBL 1.35.0000
If ur device holds same specs u may use this

HEy,well,the main problem with me is i m a bit stubborn on accepting the fact that the start menu in all the new roms is being put at the bottom and not on the top as the original 6.5's...currently,m trying out the Evo2 by Jagan..its awesum,but misses out on sum important facts and icons,such as on the start menu bar,there is no display of the lock icon when i try out other themes..agreed that hez currently made the best roms here,but it also misses out on the usb connections menu,from which i can have an access to change the actie sync and disk drive settings...i put a lock code to my device,hence,it doesnt appear(on my device,yes i m facing this)also,if suppose,it does come,and if i check the 'dont show this menu again',the =n i m in a complete mess....the rom is stable,but in the long run,the lock icon on the start menu disappears.well,whatever Jagan has made,its commendable,I dont even kno a single percent of what and ow,a stable batery backup rom has been made with utter precision,but,as a friend,i wont like this work to go hay wire...this is not criticizing,but a note to make things more perfect,so that no 1 has a chance to complain....
whatever it is,m keen on the next updated version of the Evolution series,this time with the start menu up....
thanks for making roms...u people make our life work...
love u guyz,thanks for advice...

Hi Shreyas18,

before flashing which rom???well,i donot take any back up for any rom...all i keep is the .nbh file.thats it...after that its a normal copy-paste work to be done...the .nbh is to be copied,and put into the installation package...to download the installation package,visit the evolution 2 update post posted by jagan 2..google is a great help...but if u dont find a stock rom,u may ask any of the senior members here..they'd be a gr8 help..if u planning to hav a back up of ur rom,please ask for the procedure..i am not aware of it...i advice do not back up ur current rom(6.1 or 6.5)just go on with your customisation...untill u r 100% sure that u hav the stoc rom put up on either xda or google...6.5 is way better than 6.1...camera functions are too good,and it is lot more stable...if at all u need to degrade ur rom frm 6.5 to 6.1,visit a htc service centre and ask the tecnitian to do the needful,swear they are a gr8 help,and it wont cost u nythn..
Link if u need to DEGRADE to WM6.1.
