First off, welcome to XDA.
A dummies guide has already been set up to assist people in flashing roms. If you follow this simple step-by-step guide you'll be fine. If you have any concerns or get stuck at any time, please post your query within the dummy guide thread or alternatively feel free to contact myself and I'll assist you to the best of my knowledge (if online).
EDIT
Update - WM6.5 will not be officially released to the HD. Your only way of getting wm6.5 on your HD is to flash a cooked rom with wm6.5 on it. Again, use dummies guide to flash rom and you'll be fine.

Need Help With ROM

I recently flashed my touch HD to WinMo 6.5. Is it possible to go back to Winmo 6.1 (Official Version)? I' m kinda new here so please help guys, thanks.
Moved out of dev.
Pleae be kind enough to show us some respect by reading the forum and the forum rules.
You will not make many friends asking such a question on your first post.
Go over to WIKI, read the sticky's to get your feet wet.
Welcome to XDA
PS If you got 6.5 on your device I am sure you can get a shipped rom on it to.

Just bought my first windows mobile, htc touch hd, and I want to flash WM 6.5 on it

Hi!!
Just bought my first windows mobile, htc touch hd, and I want to flash WM 6.5 on it.... I have several questions:
Is it safe to do that? or should I be worried about some complications?
what kind of knowlege I should have to do that? or does it as simple as having a new windows operating system on my laptop?
where can I find a step by step clear, simple english, instructions how to do that?
Is it different from the upcoming official windows mobile 6.5? am I going to be able to download applicatons from the upcoming offical windows mobile marketplace?
Thank you
Ayad
hello Ayad! and welcome to the HD forum. flashing is safe as long as you know and follow all the steps to prepare your device for flashing and then flash a ROM of your choice . click the links in my signature to get more info on flashing your HD with a WM 6.5 rom (especially the Dummies guide). next read the first post in the WM 6.5 ROM threads (in the ROM Development forum) to understand what each ROM includes, and finally, scan the recent posts in the ROM threads to get a feel for user experiences. it will take some time on your part, but you will be better prepared to flash your device now and in the future. take your time, be patient and you'll be successful! fyi, you will continue to get advice like mine because your questions have already been asked and answered. good luck and have fun!

Radio................1.09.25.14

I would like to update my room by 1.59 or so.
I download and try with severals rooms but when I started the program a error comes up saying Error Vendor ID. I was reading about that but I need a program for unlocked.
The problem is Im just wanna update my room but I cant by that error. And I dont like do anything wrong. Always I read in this forum that You should be probe everthing that was tasted before.
So please anyone Help me and guide me.
I will appreciate it
it's called read/research before flashing ROMs. i think your post is the 7th or 8th i've seen in the last 24 hours asking for help because the OP flashed first only to discover the flash didn't go well, lol. go to the Blackstone ROM forum and read and follow the HD Dummies Flashing Guide and you should be good to go. good luck!
Question about flashing the HTC Blackstone
Hello Everyone

I bought my phone unlocked. My question is when I going to flashing my mobile I will lose the unlocked. For example Im just need put into the phone the sim card for the country to syncronize and works awesome. Something could happening with that stuff?
Thank you
No, you should not lose your "unlocked" state. You WILL lose all the data on phone.
But that is also stated on many other posts...

Read this guide and the wiki. Both should answer all your questions!!
Flashing a phone is similar to hard resetting it. All data will be lost on phone, but you will have a new OS, i.e. a new rom
