I had seen this topic on modaco and i was curios if this may work with our devices maybe not flash cooked ROM`s but at least to make it work if the RUU gives us the error "device ID doesn`t match"?

ok hopefully someone can tell me what i'm doing wrong if anything. . . I previously installed touch-it v2.3 with no problem but i have tried at least 15 times to put the touch it full version and have no luck. I'm lost. I even went back and did the v2.3 again and it worked fine. any ideas? I am using ruu version 4.26.531.1, i am installing aserg then soft reseting then running 1__UPGRADE_ROM.bat . . . then when i hard reset it gets stuck on the t mobile white screen. driving me nutz!
Is Ur Device Hard Spl'd?
HardSPL doesn't really mean anything in this case, because he's using aserg's method to try to flash.
My advice- don't flash this rom. get a newer rom that uses HardSPL/USPL. It'll also be wm6.1 (shiny shiny). PDOCwrite (asergs method) is kinda old.

Where can i get one of these 'newer roms' you speak of? also i tried to make sense of dougstoner's directions on how to hardSPL and call me a nub but i couldn't make sense of it. . .
This rom is really old. check the post dates, but the roms are numbered by version. Higher version=newer version. Aserg's method is what we used to use to flash roms back in the day before HardSPL (herald was weird in that HardSPL was released AFTER many people got it)
Anywhoo, for HardSPL, go to the HardSPL thread, read it over and then follow these directions.
There are 3 cabs. Install them in the order that Papamopps posted. Soft reset, and then run the HardSPL RUU (romupdateutility.exe) to HardSPL your device.

Alright my device is now successfully Hard Spl'd . . . thanks a lot! Now to find the newest/best touch it rom. . . Anyone have a link for me? I am using Touch-IT v4.4 stuffed atm
just look at the version numbers for the newest. Many people have their own preferences, but i feel that Open Touch 6.5 lite (no spb or tl) is just brilliant. But thats probably because i use it.
one question- is touch-it 4.4 wm6.1 or wm6? I'm pretty sure its 6.1, but i gotta clarify

Ok anyways most probably you havent installed hardspl on your device first install that then flash the rom. Since you have tried to flash rom so i assume that you know how to flash hardspl too.
hi. i just bought a tmobile hd2. some of my phones informations is:

i've read lots of articles on this site. i suppose i'll need to instal another rom on my phone. i read a lot but i get little confused. i think first i have to instal HardSPL (forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=653614) second i have to flash a radio and i can instal a rom. and on this page (forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591784) it says i don't need to flash a radio. which means that i just install hardspl and instal this rom... am i right?
can you guys help me what am i suppose to do... and which version of hardspl, radio and rom works well for me?
sory to ask lots of questions but i don't know enough about wm phones ( thanks for guides...
Hi, basic steps are
1. Backup your important data like contacts etc..
2. Its very IMPORTANT that you Flash HardSPL first before flashing any ROM (No worries,it only needs to be done once for you to enjoy subsequent custom ROMs). Version 2.08.HSPL is ok.
3. Browse the threads for a suitable "TMobile HD2 compatible ROM" or visit this link for comfirmed ROMs.
4. Perform a Hard reset after successfully flashing any of the ROMs
5. Enjoy!
i suggest u clear your schedule, get coffee, tea, drink(s) and visit This Link . It contains info and links to all the guides you can possibly need to push you and your device to a higher level. i wouldn't recommend trying android till you are very comfortable with flashing ROMs.
you dont need to worry about the radio just yet, because since you have a tmous phone, it already has a radio that will work with all tmous compatible roms anyway.
Well I'm gonna just say right now I'm not an expert or anything since I'm relatively new too. I'm just trying to help, I would however advise wait for a more experienced person to answer.
First, if you want to flash a ROM follow this guide for the TMOUS HD2's. It goes over how to do it, which ROMs are compatible and all that.
Yes, you do have to get HSPL (except I think there are methods when you don't, though that might just be for the international phones...). But to get HSPL you should probably use this. I don't know if it is the only thing that does it but it, from what I understand, is the most well known. It also keeps you from "bricking" your phone.
From what I understand the only time you have to flash a radio is if the ROM needs it, and the chefs will say if it needs a certain one or list ones that it works with on their ROM page. I think most of them support the radio that comes stock, though don't take my word for it. I would wait for someone else to confirm or re-explain this paragraph because I'm not completely for sure.
As for which ROM is right for you...well only you can answer that. They all are different and different ones have advantages over the others. You just gotta explore a little and see what looks nice. This is the list of ROMs that support the T-Mobile HD2 so stick to it. I don't know how up-to-date it is (meaning I don't know if there are any new ones or not) but stick to those, you can "brick" your phone otherwise.
I would however advise if you're new to WM phones to try out themes first. They are a lot safer and I don't think there is any chance of ruining your phone (the only reason I flashed mine is because I've done it with a different phone before and felt comfortable doing it). Don't do anything you are uncomfortable doing and understand all the risks that go into anything you do to your phone before you do them.
Sorry for the long post, just hope this helps a little.
Edit:
I just got double ninja'd

That's d spirit...You'll be amazed @ what the search function on XDA coughs up...Everything'll go well once u stick to d guides and TMobile compatibie ROMs & Radios.
i picked up this rom (forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=652649) but there is two options. 1) com5(c5) 2)com2(c2). i don't know what it means... and if want to install one of these roms do i have to flash a radio after installing hspl?
and what is the stock rom?
thanks again...
It looks like COM5 and COM2 are just different versions. COM5 offers more options it looks like though, but I'm not sure. Someone else can probably answer that a lot better than me. I am also unable to answer the radio question. Sorry.
As for stock ROM though, that is the ROM that came already on your HD2 when you got it.

I see u picked out Kumar's ROM...Click Here for a thread on the definitions and differences between COMs...And No, you won't need to flash a radio after installing HSPL or a custom ROM (Unless you are having problems connecting to your network in which case, u need 2 be careful 2 flash a radio known to work with Tmobile HD2).
Stock ROM is the original/default ROM which TMobile shipped with your device. Follow this guide and you can grab the stock ROM from here. The Stock ROM has to be re-flashed to your device if u ever have to return it to Tmobile as flashing a custom ROM voids your warranty. Grab useful links and watch video tutorials here.
Hope dis helps ya.

Hello guys, I have previously managed to flash the energy rom onto my hd2 and i just wanted to try something different.. so im trying to flash this...
Energy.RHODIUM.21683.Sense2.5.Cookie.2.0.sencity.Oct.25
but it gets to 1% and then stops and says this update utility cannot be used on this phone
can anyone tell me why?
thanks alot
HSPL device should be done first, then update your rom,
If the same mistakes again, this time we have to do is update radio rom
i may be wrong, i havent reserached the filename you gave, but isn't the rhodium a different phone?
got a link for the rom home thread?

Never attempt to make rum for another device, such as samsamuel friend put it, of another device rom uploaded 'I think,
very bad
rhodium is a different device..since u are here i'm guessing u have a HD2 if so just follow the link for the correct ROM...make sure read the HSPL and radio requirements before flashing.

I am cooking a W.M. Rom for my device: a Toshiba Portege G910.
A few people know this device and they tell me that I can not cook any Rom because the device is not "coockable" or it has locked bootloder.
In fact no one done any custom Rom for it and I don't know any Kitchen that officially support the G910.
1---How can I unlock the bootloder or Root the device?
2---If I flash the Rom I'm making, will the flash not work or will I brick my device?
Here I ask if I can use OS Kitchen

The type of the kitchen has NO connection to your possibility to flash device. You can cook any rom but if bootloader is locked - you can not flash unsigned (custom-made) rom.
Advise for the future - if you can not write HSPL by yourself - first make sure that the device you had chosen to have fun IS FLASHABLE. Than start cooking.

---How can I understand if is really impossible to cook a Rom? I can't unlock the bootloader?
---I saw people that bought the G910 with languages different languages, but they solved the problem flashing the English version of the Official Rom...

The keyword is Official Rom. That means - DIGITALLY SIGNED rom from vendor. Bootloader allows to flash signed roms. And anticipating your possible next question - No, you can't digitally sign your self-made rom.
It's strange, why only my device do this? Other Toshiba models has custom Roms like ALL device ...
I read that is impossible to cook ROMS also for HTC devices, only that HTC releases files that allow to cook.
The Touch Pro is similar to my device, can I use the HTC's "unlock-bootloader software" on my Toshiba device?
In your opinion Will it work? Please Help
