Rom update in HTC.com - Touch GSM General

hey guys...i found this update on htc web site http://www.htc.com/www/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=88&cat=2&dl_id=25
and i'm wondering if this update will only update the existing original rom or will completely install new windows on my phone..coz i installed 6.1 rom and i want to install the original one if that will install it?!!!

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=379034&highlight=original+rom
Stock roms all here.
The update is pretty long back!
The update is basically like going back in time, thats windows mobile 6.0, we are using windows mobile 6.1

yea i know that but i need the original rom 4 the mob coz i faced problems when i installed win6.1
so if that's the original one i guess i'm gonna try my luck with it!

If there's the ROM you're lookin' for in the thread linked by jeremy, that'll be the original ROM
If not, you should CID unlock your device and flash one of these ROMs (WM 6.0) or you can even try other WM6.1 or 6.5 systems

Hey guys...i tried to install the software i told u about which i downloaded from htc website...but it didnt continue..it always breaks and give me connection error message...
but later i tried 2 install onyx again and it went fine...so am i now stuck with onyx and cooked roms?!!!

Connection error?
Can you flash using SD?
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Elf_SD_Card_Flashing
Make sure the original roms fits your phone.

well..i've read the SD flash, but the problem is that the rom file is exe file not nbh, and secondly what's the stylus, sorry to ask for many question but i'm very new to pocket pc's!

Stylus is that 'stick' or 'pen' where you use for the touchscreen.
I thought there was a nbh version, that someone has stripped from the original.

Attention Needed

Dear poeple,
I have this question about an upgrade i have put on my artemis .
I have upgraded my artemis to wm6 rom Gibs217 now i wanted to roll back my phone to the old settings and the old rom.
I have upgraded it so my question is can somebody please tell me how to downgrade my artemis to the old settings and rom again .
Very much appreciate the help.
Greetings,
Vibes.
the same way as you upgraded just with the old rom insted of the new one
the old rom is gon from your device and will have to be reapply'd
upgrading error
But thereis the problem when i reapply the original rom after 1% it crashes and say that the rom is corrupt i tried it with 3other images and they all did the same so what would you do if you were me ? isnt there a way to remove the new rom and let the original rom install itself or something ?
sorry dont know much about flashing artemis
but when you flash a new rom it's kinda like formatting your pc harddisk
and installing a new os
you cant roll back
i would wait and see if a more spc artemis expert flasher comes along and tell you what to do
or start reading threads about how to fix your flashing issue
few issues comes along that nobody before have encountered
so it could be that search would lead you do a fix

need help - OPAL in india

Dear all
I have bought OPAL (Touch Viva) in India
It came with a Idea cellular Sim connection
and the splash sceen shows cellular operator's Logo...
But the shopkeeper gave it unlocked to all networks...
is it safe to flash 6.5 ROM on that...
Senior members please help...
Earlier I was using Gene with 6.5 running on it very fine
waiting for response
Thanks
there won't be any problem in flashing 6.5.
I'm running 6.5V13 in my idea Htc viva mobile for a very long time now. After you flash it, the idea operater logo disappears or to be precise, it will be deleted.
If you fancy the Idea start screen, dont flash 6.5. Apart from that, if you flah 6.5, the mobile will be a delight to use and please stick with V13, it is as far the best version of 6.5.
Thanks Satish

Mate,
Get the V13 from this Link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=504788
i'm using the one which is posted in the aforementioned link. Don't forget the hard spl before you flash the rom. I reckon you will have some idea about that. Anyways just for the sake of caution, don't forget that. And i'm from Mumbai.
Thanks

Although I have done it for Gene....but quite not sure for OPAL
can u pls give me a consolidated guide and the tools....
I have read the instructions in the sticky....
My phone stats...
ONBL 1.35.0000
SPL 1.35.0000
GSM 3.37.00
OS 1.35.00
If you can PM me ur mobile no. that would be nice of you
Hoping for a helping hand
Thanks for reply
Mate, it's very simple.
Just download the Hard-Spl from this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=446446 and follow the steps mentioned in the link. Once you've done that.
Just go to my previous post and go to that link which includes the 6.5 V13. Download that and install it in the same way as the Hard-Spl. Within 10 min, you can complete everything and start using 6.5.
Its not that complicated, just try it.

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.

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...

Alrighty, put my TribU2U v3 ROM into the HardSPL folder and take out the one that is there. Then run the Rom Update Utility. If that doesn't work, reinstall the three cab files again (that were in the HardSPL folder) and then run the canonyang rom and then run my ROM, I think you'll like my ROM..

thank you for your help man, i really appreciate it, i really do, but the thing is that i dont want custom roms anymore, i took a look to your tribU2U v3 and it looks great, but all i want is to downgrade my HTC P4350 WING US back to its original HTC windows mobile 6.0/6.1 rom without any changes, if you could help me to get rid of the WRONG VENDOR ID and put original HTC rom back i would appreciate it A LOT...
i dont want wm6.5, m2d, touchflo, plugins, programs nor nothing of those stuff, they make the phone buggy and very slow... and dont like'em
i just want the original cuz it comes clean, no visual pimping, no programs added or removed, ultra stable, and because of that the phone works great without errors and very fast... just as i like it
No problem. Thank you for at least trying my Rom.
All you have to do now is insert the original tmoble rom into the folder and take out mine and then run the rom update utility again. Look in my tribu2u thread and I should have the original rom somewhere for you. Just go the the last page and look backward.. Should be 10 to 20 pages backward.. I'd find it for you, buti'm on my phones browser..

hahah thanks, yeah i have some good skills, but as im new in flashing WM roms i want to be careful cause i dont want to brick the phone, i used to flash motorola v600 to v3 flex in my time, psp's and those things, i just only need to now if i need toput the rom in the hardspl folder and install again the 3 apps or could i do it with the exe you just gave me?
man thats the tmobile rom not the HTC one :'(

Windows 6.5 or 7

Can anybody tell me how i can get WM 6.5 or 7 on my HTC Touch Diamond?
Where do i find it and how do i install it? I currentlly have WM 6.1
Thanks!!
Someone would tell you to use the search engine, but im also new on this board.
Windows Mobile 7 is not released until now. Windows Mobile 6.5 or 6.5.5 you will get on this board. Its important that you save your Files from the Phone before you flash it. Its also important to have .Net Framework 3.5 on your PC or you will get an error from RomUpdateUitility in Windows. I had this problem yesterday when i was flashing in WinXP and i tried a new installation. Get the installer from the Microsoft Hommepage: microsoft. com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=333325fd-ae52-4e35-b531-508d977d32a6
IMPORTANT: You have to erase the space between microsoft and .com. You have to do is at ervery link i posted. Because its not allowed to post links for new members like me and so it works only this way.
Now you need HardSPL, a bootloader, from here: forum.xda-developers. com/attachment.php?attachmentid=93362&d=1213719705
I installed this version yesterday, its unsigned but it works.
Here you have a howto to flash HardSPL, Radio and Rom: modmydiamond. info/index.php?option=com_content&task=category&sectionid=4&id=13&Itemid=26
Then you can flash your Radio to a new Version, get it from here: rapidshare. com/files/353046193/1.17.25.09-SR.rar.html - this is the newest Version i have found, but if you have Problems with it use 1.09. Users on board say thats the best one (but older): megaupload. com/?d=JRJVNC4U
And now what you really want, to flash a new Rom. Its works the same way like HardSPL and Radio flashing. You will get a lot of roms with WM 6.5.x on this board, but you have to look. The are all a little different. Here some examples:
forum.xda-developers. com/showthread.php?t=517300
i dont have use this but i try to flash it today
forum.xda-developers. com/showthread.php?t=635028
is see it now for the first time.
forum.xda-developers. com/showthread.php?t=648771
Finally you will get all this Roms here by searching the board:
forum.xda-developers. com/forumdisplay.php?f=430&order=desc
If there are questions, reply in this thread and i will answer in time.
Hope i could help you and sorry for my bad english
The Diamond is not have the hardware to support 7. Plain and simple. There are countless of ROMS available on the board... http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=430
But becareful as the roms don't work for both GSM and CDMA. Do some research.
These steps that you have to do:
1.Do hard spl 1.93 by olinex. (do MTTY also if you can)
2.I flash more than 5 wm6.5 ROM, This is the best http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=593678.
3.Do hard reset after flashing any ROM. Flashing ROM will DELETE all your data.
Wm 7 has not been released, But if you want wm7 theme, check this out http://www.mobilecustom.fr/forum/index.php/topic,4007.0.html. Good luck:
