Downgrading Wing to WM5

Hi. I own a T-Mobile Wing and and hate it's constant lagging, freezing, i could go on for a while.. Is there a way to downgrade the OS the WM5? WM6 is weak compared to it's predecessor. I used to have an MDA, but it broke, which is why i have the wing now. could i use the same rom i used on my mda, or is it not compatible? if i can't flash a wm5 rom, does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,

AFAIK you are not able to flash WM5 straight to your phone. If you have tested all(bolding because the WM6 port of the trinity is just as efficient as the WM5 Herald) the WM6 roms to your phone and are still not satisfied you can cook up your own ROM and flash it to your phone. Or follow the advice of a fellow xda'er and CID unlock your phone to allow the flashing of the WM5 Herald RUU.

Is there a CID unlocker for the wing

Hello
Where can i find WM5 official ROM
can you give me links plz

Download and run this
Then do this.
Problem solved. The phone isn't bricked anymore and it's much more responsive. (I find it to be a LOT smoother than my wizard.)

It would be great if I can get the RUU to download but for some reason it doesnt. Can you send me a different link to the one you have?

I'll try to mirror it when I get home. I might even mirror in on my temporary server and let you get it from there as long as we can get online at the same time. (I don't like leaving the PC on because of the power bill... lol)

WM5 Rogers ROM

Does anyone have, or know where I might be able to find a Rogers WM5 ROM for the TyTN? Is this even possible to find or am I SOL?

I'm looking for one also

Same here.. I would like to have one onhand just in case something goes wrong with my phone and I need to send in for repairs.
I have the WM6 Rom from HTC's official site installed right now (working perfectly by the way), and not too sure if Rogers would support a return if something went wrong.
Thanks

i just got my new rogers tytn today. I was planning on making a backup and updating ROM. if this is WM5 i will post backup file once I figure out how to do this.

That would be awesome as I am sure lots of here would appreciate a backup incase of warranty triggered

Alright... so I am going to get to this tomorrow morning - but I have no clue how to backup the existing ROM. I see a lot on how to install a NEW ROM, but nothing that I can find about the backup.
Can somebody guide me in the right direction so that I don't screw this up! LOL
Thanks

Bump......

If I am not mistaken somebody has already done this.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_DumpedRoms
I will just have to find out how I check which one i have.

Is there somebody that can do this to the Rogers ROM?
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_HowtoReconstruct
I believe that will do what you need in order to flash the original ROM back onto your device.
My brain is getting sore from all of the reading about all of this. Sometimes I think life would be easier if I wasn't a "geek".

I'm probably a newb to this, but I've managed to create my own rogers ROM and have it successfully work. The only thing missing my own precompiled ROM was the Rogers splash screen and the Radio which is suppose to be 1.42...
If there is somewhere I can upload the packaged Rogers ROM please let me know and I'll quickly upload it for everyone.

the files in the Rogers rom are all RAW files. how do you load it to your device?

ziadsa, thank you very much. I am looking at moving to a new phone, even though the TyTN has served me well, so I want to pass it on in original condition. Of course, I will be pointing the new owner to xda-developers. The next owner may want more from the phone, like I got.

I now have the original ROMs back in place and it works beautifully, but the splash screen still shows PDAviet.
Does anyone know how to correct this and get the Rogers screen back in place? I know this forum has been quiet for a long time, so if I don't get a response here, I will try with a new thread.
Thanks in advance.

When you bought the device,did you have a CD called ROM update utility or something like that? I have it with my Dopod.

hmm no i dont think so, but i can search my hundred cds
I found a cd with varios programms but no rom update utility so far.

Perhaps you could also advice me how to backup the original rom and install it if possible.
I know somebody else with a ameo. perhaps he can help.

Sorry, I don't have that experience. I would gladly help you if I know how. I'm sure there are many developers especially the ROM cook who know this like the back of their fingers. Come on, give this your guy a hand.

Check Mahmoods page here - http://mahmood1.com/ameo_athena_htcx750_WM6_ROMs.aspx
He has a list of available Roms near the bottom of the page.

Thank you for the link, i downloaded the tmobile rom but it didnt work i think because its not german.
Wrong vender id error. I need the original german rom to restore my machine and i think then i can update it.
Any german guys reading this? Somethere it must be avaible. or can somebody tell me how to extract rom from machine, becaue a friend of mine has the ameo too.

HTC P4300 is AKA HTC Wizard isn't it? So, maybe have a look in the uhmm... Wizard forum? Right HERE or HERE for WM6 ROMs

i dont know if my wizard is a g3 or a g4, IPL 2.28.001, SPL 2.28.001. i flashed a herald ROM to it because some guy told me it would work.

Don't post these questions here. There is a Wizard forum with a lot of Wizard experts for that. I have taken a quick look in the WIKI, and IPL 2.xx.000x should be a G4.
